AN: Completely new fanfiction! This is a fanfiction involving Wammy's House and some other members of the fourth generation of it. Now, anyone that knows me that is reading this (I don't know how many people that is) will notice that I may have written myself almost exactly into this, I take no shame in this. Enjoy!
Samuel was sleeping in his bed at Wammy's House, as he always was doing at 3 AM. Suddenly, he woke up, his curly, blonde hair bouncing slightly.
Grabbing his glasses and putting them over his blue-grey eyes, Samuel jumped out of bed silently, making certain not to wake anyone up.
He grabbed a small, black notebook from his nightstand, on the front, in white letters it said, "Saer's Research Book."
He was known as Saer (or S) to the other orphans at Wammy's, as no one knows anyone else's name there.
Samuel exited the room that he shared with 4 other orphans silently and walked down the hallway to the library.
Samuel walked into the library and moved quickly to a computer sitting on a desk across the room and immediately began typing without even sitting down.
In moments, he had logged in to the computer, though not at all as himself.
He had instead logged in as someone two years younger than him.
A 13 year old known as Near.
He saw that Near's background was an N on a white background that was quite similar to L's L.
Samuel bit the right half of his bottom lip, then immediately opened the internet to check Near's favorited pages.
Nothing important...
Just several eBay pages with toys.
How odd...
Closing the internet, Samuel quickly checked everything Near had saved, he couldn't find what he was looking for.
He just wanted to know Near's name.
He was so curious, he wished he knew everyone's name, then he could call them by it, he didn't like calling people by letters.
It appeared as though he'd have to continue calling the boy Near.
Sighing, Samuel logged off, releasing his slightly bloody lip from his teeth, and then left the library, returning to his room without waking anyone up.
Then he lay down in his bed and slept until the morning, when terrible news arrived at Wammy's House in a simple, 3 word message.
"L is dead."
AN: Chapter 1 completed! Next chapter will be the first day after L's death and Samuel learning of his failure to succeed him. Please review!
