"I'll contact you very soon Yagami-san" Watari close the laptop and began packing up.
Things were going to get hot. Light forced back a laugh keeping a straight face. So much for the world's smartest man.
He was playing into Light's hands just like every other sap in this mediocre world. "Thank you so much Yagami- san" Watari said politely.
"Oh not at all. The pleasure was all mine. I mean I feel a lot better knowing the world's greatest detective is working this case." Light smiled softly.
"Of course" Watari tipped his hat and bowed before leaving. As soon as he was gone for sure Light smirked. He had to start on all his plans. So much to do and so little time.
Light stood up from the uncomfortable bed and pulled out the Iv he had to go home.
"Oh" the nurse blushed at Light. She smiled softly" I am sorry Mr Yagami. Doctor Micheal wants to keep you over night just in case"
"I have to leave" Light looked into her dull brown eyes. The nurse looked about thirty with black hair packed in a bun and dull glasses.
"Well I guess I can talk to the doctor for you" she flushed. "Can I have your autograph? My niece loves you"
"Of course"

Flash back

"Its okay. I'll get him" Raito ran after Mikami who he was still far behind until Mikami ran into another student. It slowed Mikami down enough for Raito to be close enough to tackle the boy.
Mikami refusing to be caught so easily knocked down a vase which shattered on impact.
"Okay you win" Raito yelled over at Mikami.
"I do?" Mikami asked pausing he turned to face the smaller boy. "You are very pretty." Mikami smirked.
"Why don't we shake hands?" Raito asked smiling innocently at Mikami who was walking towards him.
Immediately Mikami took Light's hand Light's face darkened into a smirk. He kicked Mikami between the legs before Mikami could fall over into the shards of glass he threw Mikami over his shoulder to the floor. "You stupid loser"
"Raito!". Mogi's voice was loud. It made him freeze immediately in shock. "What did you do!?"
"He was picking on-" Raito was cut short by Mogi's furious glare.
"Listen you demon spawn. This is the last place you have, you cannot go around beating up children your age because Soichiro taught you some martial arts." Mogi snapped.
"I didn't mean to" Raito tried to defend.
"you have gotten kicked out of all the remaining orphanages in the part of Tokyo, don't make me have to come back here for you or I'll teach you the discipline Soichiro never taught you" Mogi grabbed Raito's arm.
"You are hurting me!" Raito snapped.
"I don't care! I am tired of seeing your face around. If not for your whore mother soichiro would be here!" Mogi hate Raito and it was on display.

End
L stared blankly at the computer waiting patiently to meet Light. He had combed his hair and even worn shoes. As soon as he had a visual on Light he gasped at the Near perfect being lying on the hospital bed.
L felt his throat tighten. It was almost as if he couldn't speak which didn't make sense. He had faced presidents and the most ferocious serial killers and had never been so nervous.
L finally straightened up "Good day Yagami-san" L almost slapped his face. That was not 'smooth' or 'cool' just lame.
He stared at Light whose eyes kept flickering to the side as if staring at someone.
"Who are you? Nurse!" Light seemed to be panicking but it seemed a little to played out to L. There was just a gleam in Light's eyes that rubbed L the wrong way. Rubbing L, Light's hand... No! Focus!
"Sorry do not panic. I am L and I will be taking over the investigation of your fiancee" L finally spoke but grit his teeth when he came to the word 'fiancee' most would think he saying 'investigate your fiance' was a typo and he meant to say 'investigate the death of your fiance'. There were some things that didn't make sense when he dug into Misa Amane.
L frowned when he just noticed Light's amazing eyes were no longer on his person but on Watari in question. He almost wanted to force Light to stare at him and only him!
"That is Watari my assistant." L said as soon as he did the amazing eyes went back to him.
"Oh" Light mumbled. A hint of a smile graced his lips before his face went emotionless and calm but careful. "I don't know who killed her. She just fell limp in my arms" Light leaned down then brought a hand to cover his face. L was definitely feeling something off. Light's clothes off... No! He needed to focus on the matter at hand.
"Did she have enemies?" L asked trying to get back on track.
Light looked up with tear filled eyes something L thought should be banned making Light cry. "No Misa was always so friendly"
"do you have anyone you may suspect would have done this?" L asked, he was going through his files on Misa again.
"No" Light. "Misa was always so perfect" Light sniffed then straightened up. "But we had been receiving these letters threatening Misa but we never took it serious" this seemed very odd, Light seemed like an intelligent man. Why wouldn't he take it seriously?.
"Why not? You should have reported it to the police" L chastised perhaps he was over estimating Light's brilliance. Even if he was Light was still hot. "Do you still have these letters?"
"Yes they are in a box in our home" Light sighed. "With the awards coming we thought maybe the public may think it was a publicity stunt" this made L frown slightly if Light thought it wasn't to be taken seriously why keep every letter?
"I see... Are you aware Miss Amane had a bounty on her head?" L asked. He leaned into the screen studying Light's face. Light was hiding something and the worst part was that L wasn't sure if it was his instincts or the fact he just wanted a reason to spy on the burnett.
"No I wasn't" Light looked believable but something was off with Light. He was missing something and it made him want to continue to question Light but he needed facts to back up theories he may have.
"I'll contact you very soon Yagami-san". L watched the screen go back. He ran his index finger over his lips in a circular pattern.
Light Yagami. He was going to run a full investigation on him.
Then after that he'd contact Light for the box of letters.

Light bowed slowly before the older man that sat on an office chair. "Father"
"We have to plan this right Light" the man smiled darkly. "We have been planning this for years. I have groomed you to replace L. No mistakes are going to be accepted"
"Your will be done" Light stayed silent as father stood up.
"Come Light I have something to show you" father slowly led light to the on the ground floor library through a secret passage hidden behind the book shelf to the training ground beneath the orphanage. There were many children training.
"Father?" Light asked.
"One day you will take my place Light and change things around we will rule the world." Father smiled. "But if you ever forget your place" he pulled out a small remote and pointed it at a child that was practising with a sword. He pushed the button down and the child fell limp on the ground.
Light stiffened.
"But I will not break you unless you make me Light." Father smirked. "Get rid of the body"
Mikami watched in silence as Light trained he had a mission to take out two people at the opera.
"You seem tense" Mikami finally spoke up breaking the silence. Light's glared at him in anger.
"I am kind of busy" Light blinked when Mikami was suddenly in his face but he quickly jumped back to dodge the knife Mikami had attempted to stab him with.
"You piss me off Mr. Perfect" Mikami glared at Light.
"Oh? And here I was thinking you wanted to have sexual intercourse with me" Light smirked as he watched Mikami tuck in his knife.
"Don't get me wrong you are hot and fuckable. But that only gets you so far. You are still annoying and bitchy but so sexy" Mikami said before sighing.
"I am sure it has nothing to do with you stalking me all the time" Light turned away to leave. "There is absolutely no way I could dislike you because of that"
"You have to let up a little prude. Or you'll get wrinkles" Mikami followed Light to the dinning room where the orphans ate.
"Even with that I would still be-" Light was cut short.
"You also need to let someone apart from Amane in. It is very unhealthy the way you keep it all inside... To yourself" Mikami said. It made Light frown.
"The rules say you only trust your partner 80% everyone else is a liability that can harm and/or betray you" Light grabbed a tray for himself and went on the line for food.
"It also says that you should be social with 'family' when have you and I ever been social?" Mikami asked.
"You just want to have sex with me which is disgusting by the way" Light growled.
"But we are family you have to like me Light ol' chap" Mikami chuckled.
"Oh, so you think that we are family?" Light asked.
"Yeah " Mikami responded.
"So then you can't have sex with family or it is incest" Light smiled.
"Like everyone didn't know you used to fuck Misa" Mikami snapped. "Admit it you are scared to fall for me that's why you hate me so much"
"No I hate you because you are a bastard! Always have been and always will be" Light frowned when Mikami just shifted closer to him.
"But I love you so we can level each other out" Mikami quickly shifted his head to the side Light's gun had shot were Mikami's head was. "Careful it is almost as if you are trying to kill me"
"You are like a cockroach you just won't die." Light snapped.
"Have you finished up your plan with L?" Mikami asked changing the topic.
"Its confidential." Light responded.
"So cold." Mikami chuckled. "You get a rookie for this mission. Miheal keehl goes by Mello."
"How would you know this?" Light asked.
"I make it my business to know anything about you." Mikami chuckled.
Light stared blankly at the new rookie assigned to him. Mello son of the former underworld leader of the death raiders in Germany.
"Kira" Light said quickly.
"Mello" the blonde in leather responded before pulling out a chocolate bar and snapping a piece of it off.
"Now that introductions have taken place I'll brief you on your part of the mission" Light began.
"Whatever pretty boy" Mello shrugged.
"You will-" Light looked Mello over "just wait out as I finish this mission I don't want someone ruining my careful and precise planing"
"No way pretty boy I get a piece of this I have been training for this for four years" Mello frowned.
"If you get caught I won't be coming for you" Light sighed. "Fine, take out guards in black A. Get to the security room and turn off the systems. Make sure you destroy all footage. Wait ten minutes then start a fire"
"Then you will- what? I seem to be doing all the work" Mello glared at Light.
"Do you want a piece or not?" Light asked.
"Fine" Mello sighed before taking picking up the chocolate bar and taking a bite.
"Get on the plane we have work to do" Light walked towards the black plane with a duffle bag on his shoulder.
L was going through Light's file. It was very impressive, infact the word was an understatement. Light Yagami was a genius.
He was athletic hence the tennis championship winner two years in a row. He graduated from To-oh university top of his class in mathematics.
His IQ test was amazing but after that he changed his first name from Raito to Light and went into modelling.
The question was why? Why would such a fine mind go into modelling when even NASA tried to recruit him.
Why would someone so smart not anticipate the outcome of such letters sent by a crazy fan. How could he not know why Misa Amane had a bounty on her head?
Why did he change his name? Why go into modelling? His parents were killed when he was younger.
Happy saints... Orphanage?
Two family that had adopted Light, both ended up committing suicide. He was sent back to happy saints before he was adopted again. But by who? It was not stated.
L frowned. He was probably over thinking this. Light was just a model with an IQ he feared was higher than his. He played tennis and gymnastics. He just couldn't be suspicious could he? L sighed. He got up leaving the room.
"What is wrong?" Watari walked up to him still holding the cake he'd just bought for L.
"Do you think Light is suspicious? I don't know but something seems off. At the same time I feel as though it is just lust showing its head" L smiled sadly. Why was Light Yagami the one who made him confused?

Light waited for Mello at the (okay here I am not sure how to spell this word) rundevou point they had agreed on. He knew something was wrong and the best option was to leave.
He didn't know why but he just couldn't leave a rookie behind on his first mission he cursed himself for even letting the rookie on.
He should have not given him anything to do. Sighing he headed back for Mello to save the rude boy's ass.
"I am only saving him because he reminds me of Misa" Light whispered under his breath. He knew re-entering and saving Mello would be harder than the original mission.
