Author's Notes.

So my little sister reads my stories and she asked that I'd do a 'one-shots' of Death note.

So I will be writing random chapters of Death Note randomness XD

Disclaimer; I don't own death Note, or any of their characters.

The Wammy house was a 'special house' for 'special children' and those 'special children' were 'special' in their own 'special' way. And one 'special' evening something rather….. 'Special' happened.

"Oh wow! Near got top marks AGAIN!"

"I know, he's such a genius."

"When I'm older I'm going to marry him for sure!"

"Not unless I beat you to it!"

The girls of the Wammy house circled Near, the albino genius, and praised him for passing their final exams. AGAIN!

Near didn't make a big deal out of it, he just nodded to the children surrounding him and tried to move away from the group. But all the other kids wouldn't let him go and they continued to applaud and ask questions.

From the dark corner of the room, a blonde sat. He glared at the group of kids who praised the albino. He made a snorting sound and looked down at his own exam sheet.

"So what if he got one hundred per cent on his exams? I got ninety-nine per cent! It's pretty easy!" The blonde, Mello, complained.

A beeping noise came from Mello's left and the blonde looked over to see the only kid he ever got along with in the Wammy house, Matt. Matt sat down beside the blonde; he didn't look up from his Nintendo DS the whole time and the machine continued to 'beep' and 'buzz' as the young boy pressed buttons on the console.

"Matt! Look at those fools! They're wasting their time with that… Machine." Mello said nudging his friend.

Matt briefly looked up over his console, but he quickly returned to his game in a seconds notice.

"So, how well did you do on your exams?" Mello asked calming himself down.

Matt didn't pause his game; he just continued to play it with one hand as he reached for the paper in his trousers' pocket with his other hand.

Mello took it from the redhead and scanned over it.

"My point exactly!" Mello said aloud after reading the paper, "You got ninety-eight per cent! It's exactly the same as getting one-hundred per cent!"

Matt glimpsed at his roommate with a confused face. Mello's attention was too focused on Near, who was across the room. So Matt just shrugged it off and returned to his game.

When the commotion subsided, and the other kids walked off to their rooms, Near walked over to Mello and Matt who had sat in the corner of the room the whole time.

"Congratulations Near." Mello said in his gruff voice.

Near nodded as he glanced from the blonde to the redhead. Matt hadn't even looked up when Near had begun walking over to them.

"We should be going to our room in a moment. Today has been long and tiring." Near mumbled in his monotone voice, he had begun to twiddle with his hair as he spoke.

Mello cringed at the albino's tone of voice.

"We'll be along in a minute. Matt and I have some business with L." Mello said in a cocky tone, he pulled a chocolate bar from his trousers' pocket and took a chunk from it as he glared at the white-haired boy in front of him.

Matt raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked away from his DS. He looked at Mello in confusion, frowning.

A small smile crept onto Near's face once he saw how Matt reacted to Mello's words.

"Is that so? Well in that case I'll leave you to it." Near said in his low voice, "Just don't wake me up when you get back." He added as he walked away.

Mello growled in frustration at Near. He stood up from the floor and dusted himself down, before he walked off in his own direction, he looked down at Matt with an impatient look in his eyes.

The gamer gave a small whimper as the blonde dragged him up off of the floor and led him away by the scruff of his black and red stripped shirt.

"We're going to change our test results." Mello said aloud.

The words made Matt sigh in defeat.

Mello held the back of his friend's shirt and literally dragged Matt along down the halls. Matt didn't really mind, he managed to keep playing his DS as the blonde tugged him along the smooth floorboards.

Mello made a quick turn as someone came walking around the corner at the end of the hallway. The quick move made Mello knock Matt's head against the wall. Before Matt could cry out in pain, Mello covered the redheads' mouth with his hands and dragged him inside the closet they were fortunately next to.

"Sshh!" Mello whispered to the gamer.

Matt held his mouth shut tight, he tried to hold back the girly scream, but a small whine escaped his lips.

Mello glared at his roommate in the darkness of the cupboard. The two waited for the footsteps to arrive at the closet…

But nothing came.

Mello sighed with relief and took a bite out of his chocolate bar. Matt was confident enough to start his game up again, he began racing through the level and eventually his character's stamina reached 'maxed'.

Everything seemed to slow down. (Like in the horror movies before the monster jumps out)

Matt pressed a button in slow motion and the sound "LEVEL UP!" roared through the darkness. Mello widened his eyes and yelled; "No!" (Also in slow motion)

Then slowly, the closet doors opened and a beaming light blinded the two epically. They both screamed with echoing wails. And then everything went back to its normal speed and the two boys screamed like two little girls.

The light that had shone them both in the face was in fact a torch, and the owner of the torch was L himself.

"I had a feeling that you two would be skulking around. It was today that you received your exam results, was it not?" L said in his monotone voice.

Mello winced at the light in his face; he covered his eyes with his arm and struggled with what he should say next.

"You two aren't really any concern of mine at the moment. I was actually looking for Beyond Birthday. He took the jam Watari was using to make my strawberry cake." L continued. He stood hunched over, with his thumb on his thin bottom lip, and holding the torch in his oddly delicate way with his other hand.

Mello squinted up at his mentor.

"So.. You're not going to turn us in to Roger?" Mello asked after a small silence.

L had been looking up at the ceiling for a while. After Mello had spoken he blinked a few times and looked down at the young boys.

"No. I think there's a possibility that you two would do the right thing and go back to your room before I change my mind." L mumbled as he took his thumb from his lip and began walking away.

Mello peered after him, he watched as the odd man walked away. Hunched over, delicately holding the torch, spare hand in his pocket. Once he had turned the corner, Mello hopped out of the closet.

The blonde glared at the red-head who had huddled into the corner as far as he could go. Mello reached for the scruff of his companion's shirt and dragged him out.

"You idiot! You almost got us in serious…." Mello began yelling, he cut his words off and took in a deep breath, "Just turn the volume down, okay?"

Matt nodded his head frantically. He was grateful that he hadn't gotten himself beaten up.

Mello gave a sigh and dragged Matt across the floor. He didn't go back to their room like L had expected, instead he continued to walk towards L's office; where their last exams were marked.

Matt wanted to complain about how he wanted to go to bed, but he figured that Mello would beat the crap out of him. So the gamer turned his console's volume down and began playing away.

Mello eventually reached L's office. He dropped Matt's shirt and the gamer's head hit the floor hard after the sudden loss of weight support. Mello ignored Matt's groans of pain, and he began to picklock the door.

The door was surprisingly unlocked. Mello didn't realise until Matt stood up and turned the handle for the blonde.

The door swung open with an eerie 'creak'. The room was dark and the atmosphere was cold and dead.

Mello walked slowly into the room, the floorboards creaked as he moved. Matt stayed close to the blonde, he hid behind the taller boy and clutched at Mello's black shirt from fright.

"Oh, hell. What's that?" Mello mumbled to himself.

Matt peered over the blonde's shoulder and gasped when he saw something red on the floor boards. Mello walked up to it with no fear. Matt stayed where he was and pathetically held his arm out to the blonde, indicating that he didn't want Mello to touch it.

Mello kneelt down and swiped his finger across the red substance. He sniffed it with curiosity.

"Strawberry?" Mello muttered with suspicion. He licked the slime from his finger, "Jam? Oh, no.."

Matt's eyes widened with fright at Mello's words.

"Quick, Matt! Run! We should have never come here!" Mello yelled dramatically.

Matt didn't wait for the blonde; he ran away from the office and screamed as he ran down the halls. Mello followed the red-head, he also cried with fear.

The two woke Near up as they dove onto the large king-sized bed the three of them shared. The two hide under the covers and hugged each other pathetically.

Near raised an eyebrow at the two before rolling over and drifting off back to sleep.

L sat at a small table in the basement. He had his knees up to his chest and he was eating a rich creamed cake.

"I think we showed them." L mumbled as he heard the screams and the rushing footsteps above his head.

L looked over at another man who was sitting identically to how he was sitting. The strange man looked up at L with his red eyes, he licked his finger and made a shrug.

"BB didn't technically do anything." The strange man said as he scraped the contents of the jam jar he held in his hands.

L took a small piece of the cake he was eating and talked through a mouthful of cream and strawberries; "Don't worry Beyond. You helped enough by just being.. Well, you."

BB looked up at L briefly before continuing to devour the jam.

"I'm not letting Mello forge my handwriting again." L said to himself which made BB smile.

Hope you enjoyed!
