It was 10:00 am inside the large hotel of famed detective L. Said detective was crouching on one end of the couch, chained to the other occupant of the same couch. Taking another bite of his strawberry shortcake, she returned his raccoon-eyed gaze to the wall in front of him. They had had no leads so far on the top secret 'Kira' case; an undoubtedly hard case to solve. Light, the other, similarly chained occupant, shifted out of boredom. Throwing the files of possible Kira suspects onto the coffee table, he turned to look at L. "Ryuuzaki, why must we stay locked up in this droll hotel?" Calling the detective by his alias name, he watched as the detective ate another bite of cake. Ignoring the question, Ryuuzaki pulled his cell phone out of his pocket, holding it in the air in his peculiar manner. The ten or so other random FBI and police agents in the room made no notice of the one-sided conversation between the two males; possibly simply choosing to ignore it. The phone in L; Ryuuzaki's hand began to vibrate. Flipping it open, he held it to his ear with two fingers. "Hello?" "Let me in L-kun." The usually calm and collected detective gasped, dropping the phone in the process. Every other person in the room rushed over, Light, crawling closer to the black haired detective. "I-Is it really you?" The voice on the phone seemed to get louder, chuckling at his surprise. "Of course it is silly. Now have dear Watari open the door." The call ended, clicking indignantly. Everyone but Watari and L Jumped when a rapt knocking sounded from behind the door. Moving to open it, Watari, the elderly man, was halted by the head policeman of the Kira case. "Who is behind the door?" He looked to Ryuuzaki, who had pulled his knees tighter to his chest, thumb nail hooked between his teeth. Bowing politely and smiling at the stern man, Watari continued to the door. The FBI agents in the room all pulled out their guns, pointing them at the door. Unlocking the various locks on the door, the Elder man opened the door, a beautiful woman walking through. Red lips smiling, she bowed politely, briefly hugging Watari, and looked calmly at the guns pointed at her. She had long pink hair that had black highlights and black tips. She wore a tight black jacket that reached her ankles, thigh high boots, a black tube top, mesh shirt and mesh skirt. Watari closed the door, not bothering to check her for weapons, or even see how she got past the high security section of the hotel. She had not even been picked up on camera. Walking over to Ryuuzaki, startling every agent in the room, she sat down leisurely next to him. He did not show any sigh of noticing her arrival or movements; but continued to bite his nail and stare at the wall in front of him. Leaning closer to him and wrapping her arms around the detective, she kissed his cheek. "I am not dead L-kun. I'm alright." Moving faster than the armed agents in the room could follow, L had flung his arms around the girl, pressing his face into the crook of her neck. Jumping and gasping in surprise, the FBI agents hesitantly lowered their weapons, confused. Light, who had backed away from the lady, gawked at the sight in front of him. He had expected L to shove her away, or jump away from her; never to hug her as if his life depended on it. Smiling warmly, she laid her head against his, rubbing his back slightly. Gently prying him off of her, she laid a hand of his cheek. Standing, she bowed once more to the occupants of the room. "Hello. I am Senji Sakura. You may call me Sakura. I am an old friend of L….Ryuuzaki." Turning back to the couch, she saw the chain that connected L and Light. Light, seeing her contemplative expression, opened his mouth to explain. In an instant she was near him, pressing her finger to his lips to silence him. "The reason you are all here is the Kira case. You, Light, are the number one suspect to Ryuuzaki; therefore you were placed under heavy surveillance. What better way than chaining you to himself?" Smirking at his stunned face, she started again. "I am smarted then I appear. I'm level to L-kun, and yourself in that area." She moved away from him, sitting back down between him and L on the couch. Looking to L, she sighed warmly. He had resumed his position on the couch, nail back in mouth. Leaning forward, she scooped a spoonful of shortcake onto the spoon, holding it in front of him. "I know that you want this cake, L-kun. I'm here, you touched me. I am not dead. Eat, or I will." She said the last part rather threateningly, pulling the spoon near her open mouth. Faster than the agents could follow with their eyes again, L had leaned near her, biting the shortcake that was so close to her. Light had expected him to retrieve his cake, but he had envisioned L taking the spoon from her, not leaning closer to her to bite it off of the spoon. She smiled satisfactorily, scooping up another bite. This time, she did eat that spoonful; surprising Light even further. Sensing the tenseness of the agents, she put the spoon in L's hand, standing. "Continue your work. Now you have but another detective on your side. For now, I'm in temporary charge of L-kun." She watched as they moved back to their stations, putting their guns back in their holders. Turning back to the ever stoic L and gapping Light, she kneeled in front of L. Dragging her finger gently under his eye, she indicated to the black lines beneath it. "You have not slept as much as you should have. Insomnia is not good for you L-kun." Once again surprising Light, she sat back down, unfolding L's position. Positioning him to where his legs were hanging off of the couch at the knee and his head was in her lap. "Want to tell me why you haven't slept? Don't tell me it's because of the case, I know you to well." He shifted, gaze traveling up to her face. The look on his face was enough for her, despite the fact that Light saw it too, and didn't get a thing out of it. "I did not die, L-kun. There shouldn't be any guilt left to trouble you." His bony hand slid up her arm to rest on her cheek. "Everything is fine." She allowed him to stay silent, as she turned her attention to Light. "Is there a reason you are staring at me?"
