Disclaimer: I do not own Death Note. I just own the OC's. Kthx. :3
Author's Note: First chapter in a new story. After this one, I'm thinking on writing canon stories (Yaoi mostly xD) but I'm not completely sure yet. Hope you like.(:
Snow fell from the sky, floating in the icy wind outside. A blonde child sat in the windowsill, drawing little images in the fogged up window, a small smile on her face. Slurping noises were heard from behind her, causing the little smile to fade.
"Uncle, that noise is quite revolting. Can you please eat slower and less rambunctiously?" Her voice came out as cold as ice, as the child glared at the only family she had left.
The older man rolled his eyes, sucking on the strawberry jam covered finger. "Children do not order the Adults around, last time I had checked." Beyond replied, finishing the strawberry covered finger, licking his lips in thought. "After?"
"Yes?"
After was the alias of his little niece. The girl hated the name but Beyond thought is was quite fitting. It sounds intimidating yet innocent. Beyond sucked his thumb in thought, a well known trait of L's. After turned away, losing patience in the conversation.
"I feel as if I am under suspicion. L has apparently adopted this case, and won't stop until it is solved. For the safety, please act like a normal 10 year old girl would be. 'Rambunctiously and 'revolting' are not in a child's vocabulary. Plus, before L gets too far ahead of us, I would like you to kill that other girl…her name I can not recall at the moment but-"
"Quarter Queen?" After Alexandria chuckled, sliding off the windowsill, rubbing the moisture from the window on her black dress. "Morte et Dabo, uncle."
L had instantly taken heed to this investigation once he heard the infamous Beyond Birthday was the main suspect. Him and Beyond had went to the same orphanage together in their child years. Much like his current lead successors(Near and Mello) L had come in first place, Beyond came in second. But the younger man had always been a bit extreme no matter what he did. The detective just didn't think he would go as far as murdering people, just to show he was better than him. Ah, so much thinking requires a slice of cake.
Cutting the silence that had lasted ever since he had started researching, L raised his hand slightly, holding up his index finger.
"Kalani, can you hand me a slice of cake? Since you are the closest to the pastries…"
The child smiled, handing him a plate full of strawberry cake. She tied her black hair up in a ponytail, sitting beside the detective.
"May I work on the Murder cases alongside Naomi Misora? From what you have told me, there is a girl around my age so maybe we can relate and get more information-"
L shook his head, shoving a piece of cake in his mouth. "If you insist, but this case is not like the others. Lives will be at stake, Beyond and Alexandria are both very spontane-"
Kalani spun around in the spinning chair, biting her nail. "I will be okay, brother. Is it okay?"
He stayed silent for a minute in thought. "I guess so. Remember, from what the others know, you do not know who L is. You are just following orders. I will send you to the place when Naomi Misora arrives tomorrow."
The little girl smiled in excitement, unwrapping a lollipop from the pastry table, sticking one in her mouth. L continued talking.
"Just do not get yourself killed. I will regret every ounce of my being if something happened to you because of my legacy."
She nodded. "I promise."
A/N: Morte Et Dabo means 'The gift of death I will give' or something along those lines. Thank the band Asking Alexandria for writing a song named that. (Hence, how I used it/found out. XD)
