Chapter 2- Broken

L would smile; she had asked several questions that he would have asked which inwardly made him proud of her. Scratching his head he would come up with a name to cover himself. "You may call me Ryuuzaki." he said slowly, using the same name he had once before which would only be known to those who thought him to be dead. As much as he did not want to give her a fake name he knew that it could not be avoided due to the nature of the case that they were working on. Besides that it was obvious what the outcome of just simply stating that he was L would be. This was definitely the kind of attention he would hope to avoid for now, although if she were anything like him she would catch on to who he really was with no problem soon.

A smirk would appear on his face when she asked the real question here, the one that for now he would not truly be able to explain. "I have several connections in high places. I was able to narrow down the search by tracking the IP of the computer that was searching for information on Kira the most." he said slowly. Part of this was truth, parts of it were half-truths but he would never reveal which parts where what. In his mind he was going over the resemblance. She looked like him so much that it was scary, to see ones self mirrored in another human. Not all the features were his alone, but it was still a great wake up call, he had really done it...he was a father. "Don't worry about me being Kira. If I was I would not have shown you my face either, I would have pretended to be truly afraid that Kira would kill me." he said with a slow boring monotonous voice.

Most likely with these answers she would attempt to track the source of his probing as well as cover her tracks even more and make it harder for her to be found. This was exactly what he had hoped. If she did this then there would be no way in his mind that the true Kira would be able to find her, unless of course the man in the door way was Kira as he was already starting to suspect. This time he would follow his haunches more thoroughly, the last time he did not it had cost him Watari and Good. Those were two losses that he almost could not live with. The only real drive to continue was the drive to defeat Kira and see him pay for his crime.

"I think we should get started soon once you are done with you're questions. I have information that could possibly help as well as experience in this sort of thing." he said as he was subtly laying hints in the hopes that perhaps one day she would recognize him to be L by the way he did his work. Of course she was not alive to see how he did things but he was sure that Good must have told her at least a little something about him.
She arched a brow at him as he said to call him Ryuuzaki. What was this? Was her mind playing tricks on her? Her mother had told her...Ryuuzaki...what the hell was going on? Hisaye was inwardly slightly irritated as a feeling of confusion was swelling inside her stomach. It seems that everything was going to take a drastic change soon enough. Hisaye pulled her hands out of her pockets and stood slightly straighter. She gave a small smile that was convincing enough to not give away her thoughts.
"Ryuuzaki...all right. Nice to meet you...then..."
Her red eyes shifted over to meet Fumito's gold ones.
"This is Fumito...the only one to really help me on the case so far. It seems nobody else finds a female capable...or they do not wish to risk their life."

Hisaye pushed some of her long black bangs behind her ear, trying to not look absent in thought. She wouldn't want to reveal what she was thinking. There was certainly a puzzle here to figure out. Her eyes were either lying...or they were telling the truth. But it was a truth she was finding hard to believe. She would get the story sooner or later, and that was final. Hisaye would keep an eye on this...Ryuuzaki...until she got her answers. She would have to find fault somewhere in his story, yes. She would listen very carefully to every word he uttered, spoke, or any other volume. Her eyes and ears would have to be on two people now, Fumito and "Ryuuzaki". She would have to keep these thoughts away, though, as she realized he was talking again. Her eyes slightly lit up as he talked about...computers. Oh, there we go. Hisaye suppressed a small smirk as he talked. Hisaye and technology, as stated, did not get along well. She wondered if her IP was truly the highest search...or had this been a lie? She didn't use her computer all too much, not as much as any other normal teenager would...
"Clever..." she murmured under her breath, having more then one reason to call him that. She would look into this...thoroughly.

Hisaye listened and nodded slowly as he stated they should work soon. Did she have further questions? Hisaye really all out just wanted to ask him who the hell he was. But no, she wouldn't do that. She'd figure it out bit by bit, piece by piece. All without Fumito knowing what she was doing...or Ryuuzaki, for that matter.
"Yes...I have no further question right now..."
Her voice had gone slightly quieter again as she thought about his words, trying to find the hints. Experience, hm? Information? What kind of information? She gazed curiously, quietly, and expectantly at him. Then her eyes shifted to Fumito for a moment, a wary look in them. But they quickly danced back to Ryuuzaki.
L would look over towards the man she introduced as Fumito. "Hello, Fumito." he said slowly as he yawned and scratched his head. It was weird to be in another hotel room, one where he would assist once more in the Kira case. Perhaps if he were lucky he would be able to put Kira behind bars. If the alternative were death then so be it, at least then he would be able to hold Good-Chan once more. It was thoughts like this that would bring a tear to his eyes when he was only, but here in front of others he would need to remain strong and hold his composure so that they would feel more confident in his presence. L watched her push some of her hair behind her ear, a motion he had seen several times before when he was around Good. He could tell by the look in her eyes, the hesitation to believe that he was who he said he was. Perhaps Good had indeed told her a bit after all.

"Not so much clever as clumsy on you're part. What if Kira has technological skills? You'd better be allot more careful then that." he said as he moved towards a chair and took a seat. He would sit down in his normal crouched manner, any other way of sitting he claimed would lower his ability to reason by forty percent. Of course he hoped she would protect herself from being found like this better, but there was a low chance that would even happen. It just happened to be the fact that he had allot more inheritance and technology at his disposable was why he was able to find her. "If you have no further questions then I would like to begin." he said slowly as he cleared his throat a little. From his pocket he would remove a chocolate bar and unwrap it slowly. Taking a bite he would begin...

"The one known as Kira must see the names and faces of the victims he wishes to kill. With that said im sure that this far in you must have realized that he has the power to manipulate the time and actions of the person up until they die." he said as he took another bite and chewed slowly. "This is all made possible due to an object he carries, a note book." he said as he waited to see their reactions before continuing. "This note book is referred to as a Death Note. With the book comes a creature from another world known as a Shinigami." he said slowly as he removed a small folded page. "This is a piece of the note book, I have held onto it without the last Shinigami knowing that I did so." he said as he waited for the reaction. He would then hand the piece over to Hisaye to look at.

"If you do not believe me then you can test it you're self however I advise that you did not do this." he said slowly as he was fully aware that she more then likely knew the consequences of her actions after having explained all of this. "Any questions?" he asked as he took another bite of the chocolate, savoring the piece in his mouth quietly.
Fumito merely nodded a response, watching the two. His eyes danced between them, back and forth and back and forth. There was just something...something about this. By the way he saw Hisaye watching this Ryuuzaki figure, and the similarity. Just who was he? His eyes looked up at the ceiling. Hmm...

Hisaye nodded slowly and grimaced at his words. Yeah, who knew if this "Kira" had skills in that section, eh? Her eyes instantly darted to Fumito and her gaze turned wary again. Did Fumito have those kinds of skills? She wanted to probe a small joke at him that would actually be serious. She would take his answer depending on his reaction. She moved over to him, standing beside him and saying quietly to him.
"Yes, Fumito, do you have such a skill?" She smirked as she spoke quietly to the male. He rolled his eyes and shook his head, and Hisaye chuckled very slightly.
"I take that as a no."
He gave her his usual "why are you so intent I'm Kira?" look. Hisaye's return expression was always "because I can."
Of course, that wasn't the real reason. She had a few reasons she suspected him so.

Her eyes darting to Ryuuzaki, they glazed over with a slightness of shock. The way he was sitting...! Who was he!? She fidgeted as the puzzle was coming together piece by piece. Why? How could this be possible? This was utterly impossible! Or was it? Hisaye bit her lip as he took the chocolate out and bit into it.
How he sits...his looks...his false name...what my shinigami eyes tell me...sweets...everything...just...everything like mom...
Hisaye shook her head and sighed. No...there was just no way. On the day that who she was thinking about was supposed to have died, was he sitting right here!?

She listened to him and even more proof piled up, but boy did she not want to believe it. Why? How could he be...? Could it be? Was it? She wanted to know so badly know that it was hurting. He knew about the Death Note, and he even had a piece! She moved forward, but not too quickly, to stand in front of him. Hisaye gazed at the piece of the Death Note, wondering if this was true. Was all of this just...a dream? Was she dreaming? Had she even slept the past day? Was she losing it or something? So many questions now wanted to poor out of her mouth, but she kept them at bay. No, not with Fumito here. Later.when she got him alone...when they were alone.
"Yes...the Death Note..." Hisaye murmured quietly and stepped back. "I know much about it. Actually..."
She turned and walked into another room. She remained gone for a few minutes, but then returned with a black notebook in her hands.
"I own one."

Hisaye didn't just show this thing to anyone. But, now it was her turn to start throwing hints out. It was her turn to tell him through words she was catching his own hints.
"This notebook...it has never been used by anyone. Not the former owner, and not by me. Actually, the former owner was someone...very 'close' to me, you could say. She gave it to me the day before...she passed on."
Her eyes darted from the notebook to his dark coal ones, trying to read whatever she could from them.
"I even managed to dig up information on the last Kira case. I have to say, all of it was very helpful."
Who are you...? Could you really be...?
The things she said pained him. It caused images of his own case to play in his head, his only friend the very man he was looking for all along. It was this same man that had taken from him the most important things he had in his life. Watari directly, and Good indirectly. He could not, WOULD not forgive anyone who could use these notebooks for their own selfish ends. Now more then ever he would be determined to win, win for Good-Chan, for Watari. "I see you already have a suspect, just as I once did..." he said slowly as he stared forward in deep thought for a moment. "This is good however, I also suspect him of being Kira. There is at least a one percent chance in my mind already." he said as he turned his dark eyes towards Fumito. "But for what end you use the Death Note I am not yet sure." he said slowly as he turned his gaze back to Hisaye. That look on Fumito's face was the same one he had always received from Light and in the end he was completely right.

His eyes went wide for a moment when she mentioned that she actually knew of the Death Note. He could have sworn that no one outside of his operation would have been able to find out unless they had continued after his death and had taken in new members. However that would have been foolish, especially in a world that embraced Kira. They never knew if they would be taking a spy into their midst. His surprise was only doubled by the fact that she said she owned a Death Note. The book in here hand was all the proof he would need to know that she was telling the truth about the knowledge she held about the Death Note.

Given to her by someone close to her? Could she really have received Good's Death Note when she passed on? Why would she do that, she was suppose to get rid of it so that no one could ever use that book. What if their child had found it in the best interest to use the Death Note for her own purposes? Then it would have definitely been a very bad place with the knowledge she would have possessed. "If you were able to dig up information on the last Kira case as you've said then there are one or two reasons." he stated as he took another bite of the chocolate and looking down. "First reason, you have manipulated someone within the last investigation into telling you. Or reason two...you're mother was Good-Chan..." he said suddenly looking up into her eyes. His dark sleepy eyes would bore directly into hers as if adding some sort of dramatic effect.
Hisaye grinned as she looked over at Fumito, who frowned at the two.
"Hai, I've suspected Mr. Yazuki for quite some time. He tries to convince me he's not, though."
She chuckled at Fumito quietly as he gave a slightly puppy-dog look at her. Yes, he was quite the different one. She would admit that he was probably one of the strangest people she knew. But now she had someone else who suspected him. She was one step closer to catching him. She turned to face him, eyes dancing with amusement. She loved poking fun at him, it was hilarious. Though, she was rather serious about suspecting him. The day her mother had died...the person...she had caught sight of a lock of green hair. Then he had showed up. Her eyes suddenly lost the amusement and they narrowed thoughtfully.
"Oi... Yazuki.." her voice grew a bit quiet and she moved forward, handing him a piece of paper. "Please...run this errand for me...?"

"Hm? Oh, all right, Hisaye-chan," Fumito nodded and took the paper. He looked down at it and read it, then looked up at Ryuuzaki. He gave a small nod in goodbye and was gone. Only then did Hisaye turn back to him, putting her hands in her pocket. She now let more emotions show and her eyes were beaming with wariness. She was unsure about him. Everything was confusing right now. If this was a dream, she really wanted to wake up right now. She moved back over to him, but stopped a few feet away. Hisaye searched his eyes more, wanting to break into his mind through them. She wanted to see what he was thinking and feeling. The eyes were the gateway to a human's mind, many said. She believed this highly and had actually tried it out on Fumito. It had worked rather well, but not well enough.

They were alone now, and he stated two reasons. A soft smile came across her face and she closed her eyes, shaking her head.
"Yes...you are very much correct. My mother is...Mizuno, Good."
Her eyes opened and she gazed at him, "who exactly are you? I see and have put together who you possibly are. But, I must say, it's very hard to believe."
She frowned, "how? And why...?"
