A/N: This sort of just popped into my head, and since I'm tired, here it is without editing. It's L speaking to Raito, in case it wasn't obvious…

SPOILER WARNING: IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED DEATHNOTE DO NOT READ!!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I remember when we first met

I remember the reason why

I remember telling you my name

And expecting a different reply

You didn't believe me did you?

Of course not, not at first

But over time you came to realize

Of your nightmares, I was the worst

I didn't think it was so bad

Well yes, I wanted your head

But only if only you hadn't been evil

Maybe we'd really have been friends

You fought so hard against me

Of course, I never knew

I never thought you would betray me

Because I believed in you

I fought to save, you fought to kill

It was a battle to the death from the start

So what exactly happened, Raito,

That so horribly warped your heart?

You showed so much potential

We could have worked together

Until that God of Death called out to you

And you threw away both our futures

You challenged me from the start

L, do you know…? L, do you know…?

Of course I could never really know

Just how far you were gonna make me go

By the end, I knew the truth

But it was one I chose not to believe in

And we both saw the result of your actions

Yet you still believe you're free of sin?

I must admit I was surprised

When I learned that

You were so mighty

In your own eyes

I'm the Atheist to your God

The Judgment to your Sin

With that twisted, black heart of yours

Did you really think you would win?

I might not be here to say it

I was not the one to make it real

But in the end, I was right all along

Because justice did prevail
