I do not own Wild Arms or Death Note.

Wild Arms is owned by Media Vision.

Death Note is owned by Tsugumi Ohba and Shonen Jump.

Sorry if the last one seemed rushed, due to the lack of description of the surrounding areas and what the characters were doing. I had to get to bed, so you know. I also didn't want to get too much into what the SPK... errr whatever their called now, was doing. Hopefully you got why last chapter.

ALSO!!!!!!!!!! I still need a nickname for Fengalon, so send 'em in!

Anyway, I forgot to give descriptions on the characters last time, so here they are now;

Virginia "Ginny" Maxwell

Age: 20

Height: 5'4"

Weight: 109 pounds (Not lbs, that always makes me think of deli meat for some reason)

Likes: Adventure, her friends and family, planting (I always think of her as a farmer before being a drifter)

Dislikes: Fish, laziness, being mean to others, indoors

Personality: Peppy, hyper (at times), nice, independent, strong

Notes: Virginia is now the most powerful spell caster on the team. Her outfit is still the same, except for her coat, which goes down just a little longer, and her shirt, which has a diffrent collar. This is Virginia's first solo mission.

Nate "Near" River

Age: 21

Height: 5'2" (That's right, I made him grow a whole TWO INCHES! Dissapointed, aren't ya?)

Weight: 93 pounds

Likes: Toys, puzzles, twirling his hair

Dislikes: Going outside (I can't imagine Near changing all that much)

Personality: Stoic, mysterious, a little arrogant, picky, anti-social

Notes: I had heard that Near might be paralyzed in his legs in some way, so I thought that would be interesting to put that in here. He can walk, but it is difficult for him. Yes, he's albino.

Fengalon

Age: Uh... 4 billion years?

Height: In normal form, 11' In disguise, normal size for a cat

Weight: Unknown

Likes: Running, playing jokes on Virginia, candy, Virginia

Dislikes: Schturdark, being dirty

Personality: Fun-loving, silly, wise (And at the same time stupid), a loud mouth

Notes: Fengalon is normally very serious, but with friends he becomes a trickster. He actually likes Virginia as his master, but he tends to get on her nerves. He has a difficult time disguising himself.

Janus Cascade

Age: 25 (I've always thought he was 23 for some weird reason)

Height: 6'2" (I want him to be damn intimidating)

Weight: Unknown

Likes: Killing, rebellion, being number 1, onions

Dislikes: Virginia and her friends, order, L

Personality: Rude, destructive, coniveing, Sometimes flirtatious

Notes: He's gonna be like Mello in a way, but evil. And despite hating Virginia, he'll still flirt with her.

Clive Winslet

Age: 32

Height: 5'8"

Weight:152 pounds

Likes: His family and team, reading, studying

Moor Gault

Height: Varies

Weight: Varies

Likes: Traversing the world, marshmellows

Dislikes: Rain

Personality: Mysterious, fatherly

Notes: None

Schturdark

Age: Unkown

Height: Varies

Weight: Varies

Likes: Night, drinking, making Fengalon mad

Dislikes: Fengalon, the desert

Personality: Tends to be a bit obnoxious, nice, rude

Notes: Schturdark and Fengaoln's relationship shouldn't really effect the story.

Grudiev

Height: Varies

Weight: Varies

Likes: Quiet, sleeping

Dislikes: Noise

Personality: Lazy

Notes: None

Roger Ruvie

Age: 74

Height: 5'5"

Weight: 110 pounds (He became a bit healthier working for Near)

Likes: Insect books, cooking (Because he gets some time to himself), Near, quiet

Dislikes: Virginia, Fengalon, noise, rowdiness, cats

Personality: A very serious man who has more dislikes than likes

Notes: I want to make him somewhat dislikable, because he and Watari were, in a sense, bad people. They took children and kind of forced them to train as a detective. But I still want him to have a heart.

There are other characters, of course, but I can't list them all, as they stay the same as they were in the manga/game.

Now that that's done, enjoy the story.

CHAPTER 2

"Ahhhhhhhhh!" The brunette screamed. She was in a tunnel filled with bright colors that spun fast that they started to meld into white. She closed her eyes before she almost threw up. "We're almost there." Fengalon yelled to her. 'His voice is changing!' She thought. She decided to ignore it and ask him it later. She was already feeling like she would faint at any given minute. Thump! "O-ow?!" Virginia asked/yelled. Apparently, her escort decided to just drop her. She didn't even notice him moving at all.

Virginia opened her eyes and saw a white room with furniture here and there. There were a few paintings that looked a little expensive, some well painted vases, and a very fancy chandalere. There were two windows that had the curtains drawn, but the lack of light indicated that it was night. She looked around to find the tiger... only to find a cat with black stripes. "Uh... Fengal-" She started to say before being interrupted. "Shush, there may be people here. Also, don't talk to me. People will think that I'm a normal cat, but if I talk it could start panic." He wispered. "But where are we?" She wispered back. "I don't know. Let's just find a way out first and then look for a place where we can actually talk." She nodded and got up, walking as quietly as she could. She opened a door that lead to a hallway, she opened another door, it was a closet. Another, it was an empty bedroom. Another, it lead to a kitchen- with a blonde woman standing there, cooking. The woman looked up and screamed. Virginia left in a flash with the woman trailing her. She finally found a door that exited into... a really big hallway. 'Maybe it's a fancy hotel?' She thought. "Pervert!" The woman screamed. "I'm wearing a skirt!" Virginia yelled back. She turned around to face the woman to apoligize... only to get pummbeled by a bunch of books. "Ouch! When did you grab those?! AND STOP IT!"

Stephen stood up from the couch at the noise outside. Near looked up. "Gevanni*, please check on what is going on outside." Stephen grumbled but nodded. He grabbed his gun and slowly approaced the door. "I. SAID. STOP! I won't hold back!" Said a woman on the other side of the door. "Ah! That's it!" Blammmmmm! A blast of white barely missed Stephen and a blonde woman who had her back to him. His and the others eyes were wide. A brown haired girl gasped and ran to Stephen. "S-sorry! I didn't think- oh my... Please forgive me! This woman attacked me, which is understandable since I was in her house- or whatever it is, and but she became dangerous, and..." She kept rambling while saying sorry every now and then. The blonde, after getting over the shock, ran off to her room screaming. Others, who had opened their doors to see what was going on, also slammed their doors shut. The brunette looked around. "Ah! W-whoops... I may have overdone it." She said, more to herself.

Gevanni didn't know what to say. Who the hell was this girl? She was dangerous, but didn't seem to want to hurt anyone. The girl looked down and saw him bleeding. He hadn't noticed, but she seemed transfixed by it. "So I did hurt you..." She said, disheartened. She started going through her bag. Gevanni finally snapped out of it and aimed his gun at the girl. "Hold it! Don't move!" The girl stopped and raised her hand in s defensive position. "I'm just looking for-" "Get on the ground!" The girl looked at him, clearly angry at him with her hands on her hips. "Exuse me? I am trying to help you. You need to be treated. And plus- I'm not stupid. I'm not gonna lay down. You might try something" Gevanni gave her a funny look. Near, who had partially hidden himself, was watching the entire exchange.

She took out her guns swiftly and put them on the ground. Gevanni tightened his grip on his gun. "There." She said. "I won't lay down, but I'll put my ARMs right there, alright?" 'Arms?' Near thought. "Gevanni, put your gun away." The girl whipped her head to see a boy in pajamas. Stephen did as he was ordered. Just as he put away his gun, staff came and asked for an explanation. Stephen started to explained, but Near cut in. "We'll pay for the damage and give you money for all the people staying here so you can give them a refund. We'd also like to move to a new room. We'll also pay you not to press charges." The manager stayed still for a moment, but afteer mulling it over, agreed knowing that he wouldn't get much else in money or information. The girl gave the boy a weird look. Near pointed to her. "And she'll be staying with us as well."

The girl gasped. "What?" The manager protested at first, but eventually gave in. The staff moved everything and Halle, who had been called to come back, moved the girl to the new room and kept an eye on her. Near came in, walking in a strange way, and sat down on the floor where some of his toys were. He started to play, not looking at the girl. She got annoyed at being ignored. "Will you please tell me why I'm being kept here?" He finally looked up. "If we did not, you would have been sent to prison. You could if you'd like, but it would not be in the best intrests for either of us." She raised an eyebrow. "Why? I almost killed errr..." She looked at Stephen. "What IS your name?" He hesitated. "We would prefer not to give out our names at this time." The albino said.

Virginia smiled. She was going to turn this into a game, whether they like it or not. 'It might get rid of the tension, too!' "C'mon! I'll tell you mine!" The black haired man and the woman looked at her in a strange way. "Alright." The white haired boy said. Virginia pouted a bit at winning so easily, but told them anyway. "I'm Virginia Maxwell, but my friends tend to call me Ginny." 'Or Leader' "Miss Maxwell, please explain why you were caring guns in the building." The boy demanded. Virginia got miffed. "Hey! Tell me your names!" He looked up. "Answer the question." "Not until you tell me your names. It'd be awkward." She gave as an answer. 'Okay, that's a lie, but he lied first!' "Miss Maxwell, this is not a game." "Is to me. Do you know how many ti- wait, never mind, that would be cooperating with you." She huffed. He huffed but finally gave in, knowing she wouldn't talk otherwise.

"I am Near."

Virginia smiled. "Thank you, Near! Alright, first of all, those are ARMs, not guns. Their diffrent." Near sighed in his head. "How would they be diffrent?" Virginia smiled brighter. "Well, Near, before that, I'd like to know their names. " She pointed at the other two, who just seemed to like to watch. The man huffed and the woman sighed. "I'm Halle, and that is Gevanni." The woman said. "Halle**?" Virginia said. Suddenly, it struck her. She jumped up. "Oh, no! Fengalon!" Halle jumped up and sat Virginia back down. "Who is Fengalon?" Near asked. "My- uh...." She wanted to say gaurdian, but... "Owwwww.... What is it?" Came a voice. Everyone jumped. Virginia's shirt started moving... and a white cat poped out. It's eyes went wide. "Meow!" It said. "Fengalon!" Virginia exclaimed. "Wait, why are you in my shirt and WHEN did you get in there?" She grabbed the cat by the neck and pulled him out. Halle and Gevanni just gapped. She got weirder by the second.

Near stared at the cat for a minute before it jumped down from Virginia's hold and went up to him. "..." He went back to his puzzle. "What are ARMs?" He asked again. "Oh, right. Well, their-" The cat bite Near's hand. "Ouch!" Near withdrew his hand. Blood ran down it. Gevanni quickly grabbed the cat. Halle started to get a kit, but Virginia went to his side. She ripped her dress and grabbed Near's hand, not knowing about the kit. "Here." He wouldn't give her his hand. "Now." She glared. Halle was about to tell her that she was going to help him, but stopped when she saw Near blush just slightly. Gevanni did too. They didn't know he COULD show any emotions. They knew he was just nervous because noone really gets close to him, but still.

Virginia huffed, but got an idea. She leaned down and.....

pinched his cheek.

Caught off guard, she quickly dressed his wound. Near glared at her. He was already starting to hate this woman. After dressing them, they glared at each other for a while. Gevanni coughed. "Sir, perhaps we should rest?" Near turned away from the annoying brunnete. "Yes." Was all he said. Halle and Virginia went to lay down in another room with FenGalon while Gevanni stayed up with Near. He pulled out his laptop and put in the information. Near quickly forgot about the incident and went back to thinking.

'Her gun was able to produce concentrated energy and cause a great amount of damage. However, she expressed great concern to others when they are hurt, though this could be a ruse. She has a high chance of being a terrorist or a spy. That could explain why she was in the woman's room, so as to confirm it was us. Being caught, she ran but eventually had to defend herself. But if that was the case, she wouldn't have needlessly shot her firearm at that time, since she's obviously very strong. She's linked to Kira in someway or is Kira herself. Her brash nature is not unlike this new Kira. I'll need to have this stupid woman under constant watch... Just as L did with the first Kira...'

To be continued next chapter........

I can't have Near knowing about ARMs just yet......

*Stephen will be refered to a Gevanni instead of Loud because his real last name is too confusing... and stupid*

**Halle is Gallow's grandmother and the leader of the Baskars**
