My first real Fan Fiction! I intend for it to go on for many chapters if you guys like it. I know L is supposed to be 26, but I am making him 21 so that the age difference between him and his sister won't be ridiculous.
Disclaimer: I don't own Death Note, or I would be a much richer girl.
"Omigosh! You're actually The L?" She whispered the last words in an attempt at stealth. Unfortunately, her attempt at conspicuity was a failure, but it did not matter, due to the fact that Hiroko and L Lawliet were alone at the subway station together. It was around 11 o' clock at night, so not many people were traveling at this point in time. L had been alerted of the existence of his younger sister only a few hours ago, and he hadn't warmed to the news. He saw Hiroko as a liability, and one that he didn't have time for, at least not until he had solved the Kira case.
"That's correct, but while you are staying with me," which in his mind, would not be for very long, "you will refer to me as Ryuzaki. There's no need to take unnecessary risks, especially considering the fact that Kira can kill with a name and face," he responded curtly. Hiroko was not entirely thrilled with the appearance of her long lost brother either. Being 17, she wanted her big brother to be tough, and a sports icon. Obviously, L was neither. It seemed to her that she had gotten the short end of the stick by receiving the antisocial, hunched backed, insomniac of a detective.
One could easily see that the pair were related if watching from the outside. But everything they had in common, Hiroko used as an asset, where as L couldn't bring himself to care about his appearance. To him, it didn't matter if he had striking eyes and good posture, just that he could solve the case he was working on.
"Fine," she responded, clearly displeased, probably because she wanted to show L off to her friends. After all, he was at least kind of famous, "So, how is your life, Are you married? Do you have children? And a big house? And a dog? Have you ever met a vampire? Are you a vampire?"
"No, I'm not married," he responded dryly in his monotone, "I currently reside in the investigation quarters. Due to the fact that I have pale skin and never sleep, there is a 16.5% chance that I am a vampire," because of the fact that she bothered to question him about mythological creatures, (who clearly do not exist) L realized that having Hiroko stay with him could become a bit of an imposition. Seeing as she was a silly and impressionable girl, he would have to keep her away from Light Yagami at all times. Far more intelligent and insightful girls had been charmed easily by his smile.
"So, I heard from the nerds at school that you were working on the Kira case. Is it true?" she leaned in for the answer, eyes wide with anticipation.
"This is true. Due to the fact that you asked this question, there is a 4% chance that you are Kira," of course he didn't really believe that she was Kira, or he would be dead. She was far too simple minded a girl to outwit him, but one never could be too cautious.
"WHAT? I'm not Kira!"
"The fact that I am still alive, paired with the fact that you responded so harshly, loudly and quickly lowers the percentage of chance that you are Kira by .8. Kira would have been more discreet and deflected the question.
"No that's wrong. It's not like I knew you existed until an hour or so ago, so I hardly would have had time to kill you.
"Yes, Watari notified me around that time as well. I wonder where he got the information…"
"Idk," at this point L flinched at the butchery of the English language, "but do you want me to come live with you, forever? I was staying with a nice foster family, but I bet that you are much rich- I mean much more well equipped to be my guardian, seeing as you are my real brother and all.
"Hmmm, we we'll have to see how the arrangement works out first. After all, I hardly have time for such things, at least not currently," he responding, avoiding answering the question directly. He had no idea of how he would keep the information of her existence from Light Yagami, seeing as L was almost certain that his co-worker was Kira himself.
"Well, I think we should start with giving you a lifestyle makeover! You do need help, I mean you look like a freak, and you need a girlfriend?" L sighed exhaustedly, and hoped the rest of his life would not focus around the quibbles of his younger sister.
"Really, I'm a freak?" He responded sarcastically. He knew what people thought of him, and frankly didn't care.
"Yes, so start being normal by standing up straight!"
"I don't want too…" he responded in a child like manner, pouting and annoyed with his sister's constant jabbering.
"Why not? At least let me brush your hair!"
"It seems like a lot of trouble considering the fact that I barely ever leave investigation headquarters," he argued, thinking that perhaps she would stop if he used logic.
"You. Are. Going. To. Die. Alone," Hiroko stated, over enunciating all of her words.
"Actually, there is a 48.7% chance that I will die along with my colleagues in the Kira investigation…"
"Agh! I am so setting you up with an appointment with a hairbrush when we get back."
"That is entirely unnecessary, I haven't time for such trivial things."
"Will you at least wear a hat?"
"If that is what pleases you then I suppose so," he responded finally relenting. He got on the subway, and preceded to go back to headquarters. Hiroko, was already plotting about finding cute guys on the investigative team. After all, in her mind at least, some interns could be sexy/smart. These thoughts were paired with the idea of giving a makeover to her recluse brother.
"Will I be going to school? Can you tutor me? Do I have a curfew?" She berated him with more questions, attempting to make conversation.
"Yes, you will be going to school using not your own name, but an alias. I should think that someone related to the famous L should have no trouble in school, so I see no need for tutoring. I suppose 11 o' clock would be a suitable curfew.
"What? Ryuzaki! That's no fair!"
"Its not safe for someone who knows my name, among other information to be wandering about at night. How do you feel about cake?"
"Cake? What for?"
"I'm running low on energy. Sugar gives you energy…"
"Then I think no! If you are tired, then sleep," they both sighed simultaneously, for it was going to be a long 2 week visit for both of them.
That's the end of chapter one. I don't know if I will continue, but if you like it, then please review! Also, did you think L was well written? I was worried about him not being in character.
