-blah blah blah- = lyrics
Light was shocked. He had honestly thought he would be trapped by the dark haired man's side until the case was solved or one of them was dead. The detective must have been trying to trick him again. He scowled at the man. "Ryuuzaki, I don't appreciate your sense of humor." Turning away, he continued typing. "Forgive me if I seemed as if I was joking, Light-kun, but I assure you it is no joke." The panda eyed man reached for another cupcake. "You're saying that you will let me leave the building and enjoy myself in town, by myself? That doesn't sound like something the real Ryuuzaki would do." Light had good reason to be so skeptical. L was quite the liar.
Light rubbed at his eyes tiredly, a barely noticable shadow forming under them. To be honest, he was really tired. Adjusting to L's work style was taking some time, and it's toll. Never before had he slept less than 5 hours a day. He barely managed 2 with working with L. His movement made the chain rattle tauntingly. He glared at it.
"Come now, Light-kun, do you truly have so little faith in me?" L was answered with a pointed look, and pouted. "What convinced me of the idea was Yagami-san's observations. He has informed me of you're exhaustion because of my work schedule. Now that I have the chance, I see what he means." Light looked at him questioningly. "Light-kun looks exhausted. He works quite well, of course, but the price is your health. Bags are developing under your eyes, you have dropped at least 3.2 pounds in the last week, and your muscles seem to be constantly tensed and stiff. In other words, you need a break." L smiled at him.
Light stared into Ryuuzaki's endless black orbs, searching for any deception. Finding none, he gave a cautious nod for Ryuuzaki to continue. "I have been convinced that you need a bit of time away from the case to relax, before your condition affects your work quality." Light leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs (how feminine XD) and arms, a sign of defense. "So what do you propose, Ryuuzaki? What are you asking me to do?" L just blinked at Light. "I ask you to do nothing but take a walk, Light-kun, or spend time with your friends, or something else other than the case." L put 6 sugar cubes into his tea. Now it was just a cup of gooey mush. Light cringed at the sight.
He sighed. "Ok, Ryuuzaki. If you are really serious about this, and not trying to trick me, I think a walk through a park will be sufficient." L nodded. "That is a wonderful suggestion Light-kun. It is currently 3:52pm. If you have not returned by 23:40:55pm, then I will have no choice but to assume you have ran away and inform authorites to prioritize your immediate retrieval and retainment." L held out a simple silver cell phone between his thumb and index finger. Light looked at it questioningly. "Use this to contact me if you would like Watari to go and get you or to contact me in an emergency. My speed dial is 12."
Light snorted at this. He had a guess as to why Ryuuzaki's speed dial was 12. L was the 12th letter of the alphabet. Taking the phone, he smiled at L. "Thank you, Ryuuzaki. A break sounds a bit nice right now." He held out his wrist so L could unlock the handcuffs. "Not a problem, Light-kun."
+++Park located 30(car)minutes away from headquarters+++
Light sat down on the bench, tired of walking. He was in an abandoned park a ways from the HQ. People stopped coming to this park when one was made more in the center of town. Light leaned back and looked at the pink and orange sky. 'It's beautiful. No noise. No sexy detectives to distract m- what?!' He couldn't believe what he just thought. He did NOT like L. He was straight. He had a girlfriend. He did not like L like that......but even though he was an excellent actor, he couldn't lie to himself about this. Light sighed. Looking up, he saw the sun setting over the horizon. He wished Ryuuzaki was there to see it with him. He had become deeply infatuated with the childish man. He couldn't help but think about him, that pale skin, those soul-piercing eyes, those luscious lips--
A leaf crackled behind him. Spinning around, he was surprised to see Ryuuzaki in his crouched position smiling at him. Remembering their conversation, he scowled at him. "Ryuuzaki, you liar, you said I could be by myself today!" Ryuuzaki blinked at him. "Light-kun, you are very foolish to believe that I would let a possible mass-murderer run around freely. However, I have merely been shadowing you. Nothing else." L took a step forward. "I'm not Kira! You asked me if I truly had so little faith in you, it's because I can't trust you. I cannot tell whether what you're saying is truth or lies." Light looked into L's eyes.
He gasped. L's eyes were different. There was something there now, something Light had not seen in them before. Whatever it was, it just screamed very wrong. The copy L (guess who) took another step and Light found himself taking a step back. The psuedo-L frowned in confusion. "What is the matter, Light-kun? It is just me." Light shook his head, keeping his eyes locked with man's. "No...no, you're not Ryuuzaki."
Taking another step back, he felt his blood run cold when the man smiled. "I'm impressed Light-kun. Only one other person has found me out before. The rumors were true. You are highly intelligen and your deductive skills rival L's." The man started to walk towards Light, his gait just like L's. Light's instincts were screaming at him to run, and he did just that. Going right, he ran along the path as fast as he could. Something about that imposter just screamed dangerously evil.
Light was scared now. No matter how fast he ran, he could still hear that insane laugh right behind him. Taunting him, as if whispering in his ear that he was trapped, and there was no escape. Hearing the laugh, and then a chuckle, he became terrified. Panting harshly, he whipped the cell phone from his pocket, he hit L's speed dial and placed the phone to his ear. It rang a few times. "Hello?" It was Ryuuzaki. The real one. "Ryu...Ryuuzaki..." He almost stumbled over a root on the path. He noticed the path was becoming more broken, worn out, or grown over. He was getting into an older part of the area.
"Light-kun? What's wrong? Why are you so out of breath?"
Light jumped over another root. He wouldn't be able to keep running much longer. "Ryuuzaki...L...help me!" Bursting through an iron gate, he found himself in a cemetary. Looking around, he saw a weather-worn engravement above the gate: Shizenmoya* Cemetery. "Light-kun, what's the matter? What's wrong?" L asked quickly. "I...you...bad..." Light gasped out. He tried to regain the breath he lost to talk coherently. "Me? Bad? Who, Raito-kun?" L was worried. His friend was severely out of breath and begging for help. Because asking for help would damage Light's pride, the fact that he was begging for help meant that something really bad must have happened.
"No...haa...someone...he looked exactly like you...I thought it was you...he knew my name...knew about you...enough to look like your carbon copy...but his eyes..." Light was starting to get his second wind. Running through the graveyard, he hid behind a small shed-sized gravestone.
"What about his eyes, Light-kun?" Ryuuzaki had a feeling he knew who was chasing Light, and the thought made his blood run cold. Light's answer would most likely confirm his suspicions.
"I don't know what it was I saw...but whatever it was I just knew that wasn't you...it was something really bad...dangerous-" Light started coughing.
L's heart dropped. Him. "Light, where are you?! We need to get you out of there, now!" L's shouting had attracted the attention of the rest of the taskforce. "Ryuuzaki-san? What's wrong?" Matsuda asked. L ignored him.
"I'm at the Shizenmoya Cemetery. It's near the abandoned Kikiri* Park. Ryuuzaki, I don't know how long I can keep running and hid-" Light cried out in surprise and fear as the man took the phone from him. He heard a faint 'Light!' from the phone before it was destroyed against a gravestone.
He tried to run, but suddenly found himsel pinned against a detailed crucifix-like gravestone.* He noticed the storm clouds above him in the night sky. The imposter L chuckled, making the hairs on the back of Light's neck stand up. Light was acutely aware that this man was far stronger than himself, and this terrified him. "Trying to call for help, Light-chan?" He asked. Light struggled, but could not get free.
"None of that now." The man grabbed a backpack from the base of the tombstone, pulling out 2 leather straps.* He secured each of Light's wrist to a part of the cross, like God. The irony.
Light arched off the stone and tried to pull his wrists free. "I guess that isn't enough." Now he pulled out a long chain with a ring connected to one end and a clip on the other.* Putting an end on either side of Light, he passed the clip through the ring and went behind the stone, pulling the chain tight and hooking the clip to a ringhook nailed into the base of another stone. Light discovered that the more he pulled on the chain, the more it would tighten. He stopped arching his back, but he didn't stop moving his arms.
"Better, but you are very stubborn." To Light's horror, the man pulled out another chain, this one shorter and with a clip on both ends, and a black leather collar. Light struggled more, keeping his eyes on the collar. "N-no...stay away from me!" He screamed. The man just laughed and locked the collar around Light's neck. He then hooked one chain clip to the collar, brought the other around the upper part of the cross, and attached it to the collar. Light couldn't move his shoulders. No escape. He locked the collar* and placed the small black key in his back pocket.
Reaching into the bag, the man approached Light. Seeing this, he started thrashing his legs, managing to kick him. The man laughed. "So feisty. You're going to be fun." He pulled 2 more leather straps and tied one around each ankle, then hooked them into ringhooks in gravestones on either side of Light so that his legs were held apart. Light paled.
"Now that you are sufficiently subdued, I am going to have some more fun with you. Like a warm-up." He pulled out 2 long silver nails and a hammer. Light started shaking. He readied a nail in the center of Light's right palm. Light shouted and tried to move, but he couldn't get away. His shout turned to a scream as the nail was driven in, enough to pierce the stone. The imposter hammered the nail 3 more times, so that Light's hand was nailed to the gravestone. His screams grew louder.
"I've heard that it isn't as bad when you can't see what's happening." He pulled out a black blindfold* and placed it over Light's eyes. Light's tears streamed down from under the blindfold. Moving to the other side, he nailed Light's left palm into the stone. The blindfold just made it worse, because you felt it alot more. Light was alarmed when he suddenly felt a blade cut his chest and ripped open his shirt.
"W-what are you d-doing?!" His voice broke. The imposter laughed. "I'm going to have even more fun with you. You are most likely a virgin, and i'm going to take great pleasure in tainting that innocence." He took the blade and started to carve inticate designs onto Light's chest and stomach. Stepping back, he looked at his handiwork. A capital B carved in Old English text.
The rain started to fall.
Grabbing at Light's pants, he undid them and lowered them to his ankles. Light panicked when he felt the man's member prod his entrance. "P-please...no...please don't d-do this...please..." He begged, in hysterics, his voice breaking. "The proud lion finally begs! How wonderful." The man forced a single degrading kiss onto Light's lips before he violently pushed inside.
Crows fled to the sky as Light screamed and the rain poured.
Yaoi-sama: So how did I do on this one? I have the second chapter made, but i'm testing this prototype chapter first. I will go back and edit my other stories, but I can't right now because of parental controls. They will be off very soon tho.
Review plz, so I can know if it's good enough to put up the second chappie and continue it. ^_^
Shizenmoya*-- Means 'Nature Mist' cemetery
v^these are usually covered with mist
Kikiri*-- Means 'Tree Mist' park
crucifix gravestone*-- It's shaped like a cross, by the tops are more pointy and the points have a more carrot kinda shape.
leather straps*-- They are just like the ones Light has around his legs during his confinement in the manga
Ring on one end, clip on the other*-- It's a dog choker chain. You pass the end with the clip through the ring so it is around somebody like a leash. The more you pull, the tighter it gets. I know from experience 'cuz I wear one as an accessory. LOL
