Chapter 2: The Begining of Everything

The next morning saw all of the newly reformed SPK in L's apartment building, in the same positions they had been in the previous night.

Sammy was half asleep in her chair, her blonde hair sticking up in different places that made her look like she'd been run through a electric force field a couple of times. The blonde was NOT a morning person and could not function properly with out her daily cup of coffee.

Katrina sat next to Near on the floor, looking amused at Sammy's morning face. "Come on Sammy, wake up" She smirked, Sammy hissed at her and Near's lips turned up in a half smile.

"Do you think Watari has gotten us coffee yet?" Sammy whined rocking back and forth in her chair. It was quite funny how her childishness showed through when she was tired. Not to mention her deduction and reasoning skills decreased by roughly 47% that was never fun.

Katrina sighed, "I don't think it will kill you to go without coffee for another day Sam"

"TAKE THAT BACK!" Sammy ordered.

"Okay, okay" Katrina giggled "Fine"

"Thank you, I appreciate that." Sammy said before settling back down and resting her chin on her hand.

Matt and Mello entered the room shortly after and sat down in the spots. Near sitting next to Katrina gave a short greeting to the two and handed the curly haired girl a pack of matches so she could help him build his next masterpiece. Sammy noted the light blush on Katrina's face at touching Near's hand and she smirked, she would interrogate K about it later.

"Good morning everyone, I trust you slept well?" L walked in barefoot, climbing onto his computer chair and sitting down next to Sammy. "Today, we can properly begin our investigation, we'll start with the basics and work from there." L took a couple sheets of paper from the desk and handed one sheet to everyone, "Each of you will study the context of your notes and try build a theory from there."

As he said that Watari entered the room wheeling a silver tray of coffee, offering everyone a cup, only Sammy and L took one and both simultaneously added a further seven sugar cubes to their cups.

Katrina smiled and studied her sheet reading over what was written on the page. It contained the history of the Kira case before. "Perfect." She whispered to herself. She pulled a black laptop from her rucksack beside her and set to work. As she sifted through the information, Sammy used a pencil to mark notes in hers.

Sammy's sheet was filled with the times and locations of the death's this time around. as L had said earlier, it did seemed like it was someone who had some sort of job, or was in college. all the times would be after work was finished and college was closed. But something seemed odd...

"L, have you considered interviewing previous assistances to the Kira case?" L looked over at Katrina, who, although she had asked the question , hadn't looked up from her computer. He took a little time considering the idea. "I can only assume you already have a theory then Katrina, but no, I haven't. Merely because I had interviewed them before they joined to make sure they weren't Kira, or as in Light's case, that they were Kira."

Katrina made a noise of agreement and shut down the computer. "And yet you have previous member's still alive, who are the only ones who know of the Death Note's existence wandering around, and in Aizawa's case working with you on this case. Don't you think that maybe you should investigate them again?"

Mello stared at the bruenette and shook his head. "How did you get that from your paper?" She gave him a stern look. Before she could answer Near piped up. "I came to the same conclusion. I have people whom light was associated with, I was thinking we should investigate them." L nodded thoughtfully, "It's an option."

Suddenly, Sammy figured out what was off with the times on her sheet. "What kind of person works all day, every day?"

L spun to face her, "There are a number of people Sammy who work all day every day. What are you getting at?"

Sammy frowned and bit her lip thoughtfully before answering. "It just seems that your likely suspects are those who work daily from eight in the morning until seven at night, of course we still cannot rule out the fact that it could be a college student with a rest period or study period of two hours in the evening, or my other theory someone who works closely with the FBI, Police or the victims families."

"What are you trying to say?" Matt asked, speaking for the first time since they'd been there.

Sammy sighed and ran a hand through her hair, "Correct me if I'm wrong, but you have noted that only three hundred and four of the five hundred victims were broadcast on the news and in the newspapers, for the victims privacy the other one hundred and ninety six victims families preferred that they remain anonymous. If that's the case someone knows of the other one hundred and ninety six names must have been known by the FBI or Police force. I guess you should investigate the FBI and Police who are aware of this, so that means the Japanese Task force. I don't know maybe I've grabbed the wrong end of the stick here, but that's my thoughts."

L nodded and rest his finger on his mouth, "Hm, you have indeed made some very valid points Sammy, we'll take note of what you've said and will continue from there."

After a while of careful consideration, L announced that they would start interviewing the Japanese task force tomorrow morning and hopefully find a lead. Everyone settled into a calm silence as they all read their sheets. Katrina sighed and leaned against the couch, accidentally leaning on Near who jumped at the contact and both scooted slightly away from each other. Sammy smiled to herself, she was definitely investigating that anyway. She was so caught up in watching the other two that she didn't notice L move closer beside her.

When she turned her head to talk to him she almost fell back at how close he was. He was studying her with an odd look on his face. He tilted his head to the side slightly and frowned.

"Do I know you from somewhere? I never forget a face, but I can't quite place how I know you." She shook her head and smiled "maybe you seen me on the street with Kat or something like that. I've never seen you before."

L shook his head and muttered to himself before continuing on with whatever work he was doing. He flicked through pages of statistics and numbers, moving one pile over to one side of his computer before filing through another pile, stopping at a random page. He turned back to Sammy and looked her over once again. "I know who you are, Sammy. I just suddenly realised..." He trailed off, slightly dumbfounded.
