L glared at Daruku for a while, until he looked at him with an irritated look on his face. "What do you want? You're annoying me." he said. "Nothing, nevermind. Raito-kun." Daruku looked even more annoyed now, but then just smiled. "Oh, I don't care how you call me. Let's just celebrate that we both were sent to the second year so fast." Daruku said while his eyes followed every movement of L's body. Now that he looked at L a bit better, he started to recognise some of his traits as if he had seen it before. It was actually quite logical, now that he thought about it. It was common sense that he had another life before this one. But why did this Ryuuzaki person remeber it, and not him? Drowned in thoughts, he completely forgot about what was happening around him. "Raito-kun?" L asked as he poked him against his shoulder. Daruku looked up. "Sorry. I was thinking about some things... it's unimportant." he said. "Hmm.." L put his thumb on his mouth and then smiled. "There's 55,6 chance that you were thinking about your previous life." L said. Ukitake looked at him with quite a shocked face en then put his arm around L's neck. "Let's go, Ryuuzaki. I'd like to talk to you for a bit." L turned around his head, looking at Ukitake with a frown. "Just come." the other quickly said.
They arrived at the 13th division, where the two lieutenants were arguing once again. Both loved Ukitake from the depts of their hearts, that was obvious. "Come on, sit here." Ukitake said and L followed his orders. "What did you want to talk about?" he asked. Ukitake sighed and then took place also. "Did your memories fully return again? You looked so certain that you knew that boy." Ukitake didn't know if it was good or bad if his memories had returned, but he knew for sure that they wouldn't even think about letting him go to the transient world, afraid that he would go to the persons he loved and never come back. L nodded. "He doesn't know himself, but he was a very good friend of mine. He wasn't a quite good friend though. He was a murderer. He's killed many people" The words were shocking to Ukitake, but he put his hand on L's shoulder. "Don't worry. He'll surely do better in this life. So it's better if you don't keep reminding him of his other life... It could be bad if he remebered." Ukitake said, with a slight warning look in his eyes. L nodded. "i know." Ukitake suddenly stood up. "Now. How about some tea?" he asked. Soon the two lieutenants barged in, yelling that they both wanted to get it for him followed by a dirty look they gave each other. "Hey, I was first!" Kiyone Yelled. "You were not!" Sentarou yelled back at the top of his lungs. "Now now.. don't argue. I'll get it myself, I am able to do that, you know?" Ukitake said as he stepped in between the two. "And for how long were you two eavesdropping?" he asked with a frown. "It wasn't my intention!" Sentarou quickly said. "It wasn't mine either!" Kiyone followed up. "Why do you keep stealing my lines?!" Sentaro growled."That's not true! You steal mine all the time!" Kiyone growled back. "Stop it, you two." Ukitake sighed. "It doesn't matter anyway..."
Finally, the two were silent and L had ended up being the one who made the tea, in some kind of way. "Sorry, Ryuuzaki." Ukitake apologised. "It's really fine, I like doing things for you." L smiled. "You shouldn't say that when Kiyone and Sentarou are around..." Ukitake chuckled, kind of glad that they were doing paperwork in another room. "I know, I'm quite careful with my words." L said and piled up some sugarcubes again. "Why don't you have coffee here?" L suddenly asked. "Coffee? Oh, I've heard about that. They have it in the human world, don't they?"Ukitake said with huge interest. L nodded. "It's really good. You should try it some time." L said. Ukitake nodded. "I'll ask Kuchiki Rukia to bring some of it with her next time she comes back from the human world." With all the talking about the human world, L started to want to go back. But he couldn't, he knew that. And he had already accpted that. Maybe he could become friends with Raito, no, Daruku. Maybe he would be friends with the kind version of the person he was having such a dangerous competition with, that would be nice. Really nice. "Ryuuzaki, you're zoning out." Ukitake said while he waved his hands before L's eyes. "Sorry."
Yet another say had begun, now it was time for his secind year at the academy although he didn't even finish the first year yet. He saw Daruku walking though the hallways, and went to stand before him. "Daruku-kun." he said with difficulty. It would really be hard for him to say that name every time, but he would get used to it eventually. "What is it now?" Daruku asked. "Is it okay if I walk with you to Zanjutsu?" he asked carefully. If it was Raito, he would agree without wanting to, just to hide his true identity. But he would be deviously annoyed. He wasn't quite sure about this one, though. He never had known a Raito that he didn't know, who didn't know his true identity. "Sure." his voice sounded crystal clear, not like he used to be. If he got to know this Raito very well, it would be too obvious if he touched a death note again. Suddenly L's eyes grew big. That was it. Touching a death note. But how would he get his hands on one? That could be years and years away. "Thank you." he said and together they walked to class, while thinking of a way to the human world. But why? Did he want Raito to become the evil Kira again? Maybe he wanted it to happen. But that was wrong, right? Maybe, it was just to have fun with Raito again.
