Chapter two:
Despite the increased patrols that night four more orphans go missing.
This time it's all males.
The abductor has changed.
"I believe that the abductor is going after all orphans. This change in profile has made me certain." L tells Rodger. "I am contemplating moving you all to a hopefully safer location. I will ask Watari to look around for the safest place we can move you all to until we figure things out."
"Thank you." Rodger says then hangs up as this conversation is done.
….
Watari begins looking for a good safe place to move the orphans to and is in charge of setting up everything needed for the orphans to be moved there.
Due to this L has allowed him to focus on this meaning everything else he usually does is put on hold until this is done.
…
As the day goes on classes go on as expected.
But throughout the day things have quickly escalated.
Orphans are much more quickly vanishing.
L is getting worried when he hears about this. "We must move them out of the location at once."
"Yes." Rodger agrees.
A teacher bursts in. "Rodger. I'm sorry to interrupt but a whole group was taken." She explains. "We only have a few left."
L clenches his teeth hearing this. "Collect the ones left and take them. I will get Watari to send you information on a location right away."
"Thank you." Rodger then hangs up the phone. "Gather the ones left." He orders. "We are moving them out of this orphanage right away."
The teacher nods and leaves to go get this done.
Rodger turns to a piece of paper on his desk and he stares at it for a few moments.
…..
A little ago…
"Is the preparations almost complete?" A man asks.
"Yes." A woman confirms. "And all the blood we have collected is being processed. We have some results already and the office is working on the rest."
The man nods. "Good. We can start to look at possible pairs to go with." The man says. "We need to act as soon as possible if we even want to get this done."
The woman nods. "Of course sir." She then leaves after handing the male the papers.
The man flips through the papers and a smirk comes across his lips. "An unusual case but it appears those stories were correct about things. It's not for all of them but there is enough for all of them to be paired off and none are too young." He smiles liking the results. "Once the space is finished we can begin moving them as soon as possible."
….
The group is hurrying to prepare the location for the operation.
"We need to get this done!" One man tells the other workers. "We don't have much time left."
The people continue to work.
About a week later…
The man gets the news that the building is all set. "Good job. It's time we start moving them over." He hangs up the phone then smirks widely. "Everything came together quite well and now everything is complete." He calls another person. "Yes it's me. It's time to start."
That night the people move in late that night hurrying to the place they have been sent to.
The small group sent to start the collection first make sure that the ones they need to collect are asleep enough that they can move them. They take the ones they need to collect tonight away and off away to the location in the cars brought over.
….
Mello begins to gather stuff he will need for when they will be moved to the new location. He's only seen Near, Ace, Tina, Fredrick and Olean recently.
Six orphans including himself seem to be the last ones here.
He has a really bad feeling about this. He is making sure there is enough space for what else he needs he doesn't notice the person approaching from behind.
Until it's too late and a rag is placed over his mouth and nose as he is restrained until he is unconscious.
….
Rodger makes it to the front lobby. He had made sure that at least one teacher was in the bedroom hall while the orphans quickly packed what the needed so he expected the orphans to be in the front lobby but it's empty.
One of the teachers from the bedroom hall approaches Rodger almost nervous as if fearing getting in deep trouble for not seeing anything. "Rodger. The rest have been taken. I was distracted by something that I was sure was the kidnapper then when I returned they were gone."
Rodger looks down as he can tell that the teacher didn't take the kids as this teacher has his heart in his eyes so to speak. "I don't get it. They start out slow but after two successful attempts they get so brave that they act so fast that orphans are gone before we even know it."
"What should we do?" The teacher asks.
"We must call L first. No one is leaving this building until further notice." Rodger then heads away to his office.
…
L is deeply troubled when he gets the news. "Alright. I want every adult there questioned. I will be sending people to do just that. Keep everyone there." He then hangs up the phone.
Light looks worriedly to L as L begins quickly typing a message to someone. "Something isn't right." He says.
L almost sighs. "The rest of the orphans were taken while we were just about to get them to a safer location." He says. "This can only be done by someone on the inside." He says. "Especially in the way it was all done."
Light blinks at the news. "Anything we can do?"
L shakes his head. "Don't worry about it. The Kira case is enough work for you all with all it's stress. It can become bad for your health if more work stress is put on." He explains. "I will be sending people to talk to the adults at the orphanage."
Light nods. "I can see your point." He says.
As L said the Kira case is already a big stress and it's obvious that this one case alone is enough stress for the team.
So L knows it will not be beneficial to add to that stress for the team.
But it is now obvious that someone knew that the orphans were going to be taken away to another location making them move much quicker to take the rest before they left the location.
AN:
Well I hope people are enjoying.
As you may have guessed the actual taking of the orphans are not as important as the rest of the story.
But I hope you will continue to enjoy as you read on.
Reviews are awesome and flamers will be used to make cake.
