EPILOGUE:

RAITO:

I woke up to find myself lying beside Ryuuzaki, still in the blinding fluorescent light, wondering how I managed to fall asleep.

He was still as I saw him last. Pale, naked and spent. Except for the fact that I actually took the chain off, and a thin sheet I pulled over him, covering his intimates.

I shifted slightly to get a better look at him. His blindfold was still covering his eyes, his breathing calm and relaxed, he probably didn't even know when I released him from the cuff.

This called for a little celebration. I bet he was really thinking about how he pissed me off so much I had to vent it out on him to the extreme. Not that I care. If that's what he wanted to be the excuse for me fucking him, so be it. I played along perfectly. To think that he'd whore himself out that far again and again, was beyond me.

Not that I'd mind that much.

To me it was nothing but one last little game before...

For once, I got to see this all behind a reaper's eyes.

I never expected it to feel like this. Odd. But good at the same time. Having molested, violated, fucked Ryuuzaki body and soul, physically and mentally in the lowest, most decadent, degrading way possible. So maybe I was no different from a reaper, or any other rotten being out there.

As far as I'm concerned, they could all go to hell.

L, the internationally-acclaimed super detective, eh?

To me he's nothing but a good fuck. A little whore.

On the other hand, this might be what it really felt like to be behind the reaper's eyes, Ryuuku or whoever the hell there was.

Humans are so...interesting.

Hell, even I was amused.

The whole reality about knowing almost nothing about Ryuuzaki or L suddenly escaped me. It didn't matter anymore.

Not when I've got him in my hands. Literally and figuratively.

And I didn't even need to get my hands dirty.

To this stage, it may look like I've been a solo player, but Misa and Rem had been unbelievable support. honestly, if they weren't around, I wasn't completely sure what to do.

Tomorrow the final chapter will unfold. Tomorrow. And Rem would completely lose it, as if she wasn't all stirred up enough already.

Brilliant.

I could hardly wait. So tonight, consider it a farewell souvenir for both me and Ryuuzaki.

I let my focus returned to the figure lying unconscious beside me. Or at least I hoped he was. He rarely slept.

"Awh…awh…awhhh….Kira!"

So if that's what it takes to force him to sleep so soundly...

I'm going to miss it.

I bent over, and took his mouth in me. His lips were cold, paper-dry and...dead.

Better now or I might lose my chance.

It's been fun, Ryuuzaki.

Yagami-kun is the first friend I've ever had.

You've been a great piece of work.

It's like...I wanted you to be Kira.

A necessary nuisance.

If we become one...

A brilliant match.

I haven't played so hard in a long time.

A great fuck, too.

"Awh…awh…awhhh….Kira!"

He slept through the kiss.

Goodbye...Ryuuzaki.
