Matt laying beside me, Matt whose eyes were always hidden because they showed too much, Matt with hair that made everyone stare, Matt who I loved more than anything. If this went badly he could be in danger, especially with the latest development with Near and Sayu. I shook him slightly, "Yo…Heeeeeelllo!"

What? Just cause I loved him and occasional had sappy internal dialogue with and about him, that didn't mean I was all soft and fluffy with him. His green eyes shot open, breathing instantly accelerated, "What?"

He kept his voice low and his body tensed, a product of living with me during the worst years at Whammy's, when I'd been crazy as hell and being woken up meant trouble. Then working for L, our assignments were dangerous in the extreme sometimes, though no one ever let Light realize just how much so for everyone's health.

I snapped back and touched Matt a bit gentler, "It's cool babe, just almost time to take off." I thought about the day that was ahead of us and groaned.

Matt nodded empathetically, "This is gonna blow." He sighed and pulled himself out of bed and I took a moment to admire his still naked form, gods…

He snapped his fingers in front of my face, "hey Mels? Wanna know what I dreamed about?" He asked, grinning at me, I stared at him and nodded slowly, wary of the weird shit Matt's mind could come up with.

"Well there was this guy standing selling t-shirts made of cheese and dancing like a stripper and you really wanted a shirt but he said that you didn't have the right kinda money so I gave him a chicken and we schooled him in a rap battle and got cheese t-shirts…only a giant mouse ate us..or he was gonna and then I pulled out a guitar and gave it too him so he could play for a ballet that we were gonna watch, but you woke me up." He smiled at me, rocking forward on his toes.

"Matt….you should stop getting high." I told him, looking at him and wondering if he'd taken a hit last night. Sneaky bastard seemed to manage to do it while I wasn't looking a lot. I was still pretty distracted by his nakedness as I got up so I managed to fall pretty hard.

He laughed, "I wasn't jacked last night though! But damn, you're either clumsy as hell or a horny fucker." He leaned down and pulled me up, kissing me and then moonwalking to the dresser.

I knew what that meant. "God no! WHYYYYYY!" I yelled, diving for my clothes so I could get away before…

"C'mon, C'mon and shake your money maker! Take, Take…" I ran out as fast as I could, making it out of hearing range and struggling into my pants.

I sipped my coffee and waited for Light to join me in the main room, he took so long and we were leaving in less than an hour. Near was sitting on the floor putting together a new puzzle, one he was almost finished with and after I paused to count I wasn't surprised to find that it had well over 5,000 pieces.

Light, Watari, and Mello all entered from separate areas with timing that was so exact anyone else would've thought they planned it, I knew Watari probably had, Mello was just strangely good at that kind of thing and Light…well he was Light.

They took their respective positions, Mello on the couch, Light elegantly perched on the arm of my chair and Watari in the middle, carefully avoiding nears puzzle. "The plane is ready, I suggest you do a last minute sweep and insure you have all that you wish to take with you….where is Mail?" He looked at Mello.

I raised an eyebrow, not bothering to wonder just curious that Watari hadn't just checked the monitors. "He's probably trying to re-wire the camera's after we shut them off last night."

Ah, that was it, Matt didn't care if the whole world watched but Mello valued privacy. I leaned back a bit, nibbling on a sugar cube and looking to Light, "I believe all of our affairs are in order, we're simply waiting for Matt before we-"

Said red-head came in, flopping down, head landing with precision in Mello's lap as he flicked on his game, "We can go now right?" He mumbled past the cigarette, hanging unlit from his mouth.

I sighed and nodded, Watari taking front and center, "L and I will fly the plane most of the way, in order to give you some more experience, Mello and Matt, you will fly a piece of the journey."

Both of them nodded eagerly, I knew they loved flying and it would get them out of Light's hair for a while, which I knew without looking he'd be grateful for.


~Light~

L had just traded off with the boys and was sitting beside me, it was nice so far and I leaned over and kissed him very gently, taking his hand from his knee as he munched some strawberries.

We were very close to our destination and I didn't know if I was thrilled to be headed home or horrified that I would be back where the whole Kira fiasco happened. He squeezed my fingers and offered a slight smile.

I leaned against him and closed my eyes, happy to just zone out for a moment before we got there and had to deal with what would no doubt be a three-ringed circus.

I hadn't slept much the night before, L and I had been caught up in our love again and I'd had a lot of energy but after saying up until dawn and boarding a flight I was exhausted.

He kissed my forehead as I looked at him, yawning just slightly as he went over some more case notes, "Light-kun if you wish to sleep you may use me as a pillow." I smiled tiredly at him, "Yes L-sama." I closed my eyes and drifted off.


~Mail~

Mello and I had landed the plane without trouble…well except that guy we almost took out, but come on, what idiot stands on a runway in gray?

We got in the car Watari had arranged, our bags would be waiting for us at the hotel as usual. I finished my cig and turned to Mel, "So, you think we'll get our own suite? I don't think hotels are soundproof and Light's a screamer."

Mello smirked, "Oh that's who that was in Scotland…" he laughed, snapping off some chocolate as we pulled up in front of the hotel, "We'd better, there's no way I'm sharing with the sheep."

I glanced at Near who was playing with his finger puppets again, little weirdo that he was. "Yeah. L knows better."

I was usually neutral but I hated Near more than Mello, I just controlled myself better. Near had come to Whammy's with me and I'd never told Mello this but, he was my step-brother and the son of the man who killed my mother.

L said nothing, Light was clearly trying to wake up, blinking a bunch and trying to hide a few yawns. Mel sighed as we got out, "Japan….." he looked around with distaste, the area was nice, not like the places we liked to hang out in, but it was somewhere L and Light would be comfortable.

I shrugged and we went up to the penthouse that the investigation was going to be out of, "Are we all living here? Or swapping hotels every so often?"

L shrugged, his raven hair brushing past his shoulders and I wondered briefly when the last time he'd cut it was. "If you wish to stay somewhere else it can be arranged, however Watari has booked all the rooms on the top four floors so you can have your pick of any of them that you wish."

Satisfied I leaned back as Mello asked his question, "When do we start investigating?"

Light answered this time, "As soon as we can, L and I decided that meeting with a police task-force was necessary and left it to the director to make decisions on who it would be, they'll be here at six A.M tomorrow."

Mello just shrugged and nodded as we went in and started setting things up, I'd brought more tech gear with me than ever, spreading it across an entire wall.

Everyone froze when Near asked in his usual monotone, "L, the building that was used for the Kira investigation is still standing is it not? Why is our headquarters not there?"

L looked at the small boy, a sucker sticking out of his mouth as he responded, "To many memories, any team we wind up working with is likely to get distracted but what happened there, besides It's the new NPA headquarters."

I frowned at Near for asking such an insensitive question and finished wiring a router, Mello muttered, "Stupid sheep." From across the room, glaring as he helped Watari move furniture around.


~Nate~

The door opened and Watari lead in six men, I recognized Touta Matsuda, Soirichio Yagami, Kanzo Mogi, Shuichi Aizawa, and Hideki Ide from the Kira investigation. The lasts mans file had been promising, his name was Kiruki Ruko and he was new to the NPA but had shown his talents as a gifted detective.

"Hello. I am L." I looked up at them from the center of my dice fort, Watari stepped forward and handed me the box of rice candy I'd asked him to get as the men stared.

Yagami stepped forward first, "Hello L, I'm sure you know who we all are so I must ask you, do you wish for us to use aliases?"

I shook my head, comparing his mannerisms to Light's in my mind and failing to see much connect aside from the polite demeanor. Light gave you the feeling he was looking at you from somewhere separate and other while his father was right there with you. I didn't like it.

"No, this killer doesn't use names so your identities do not need to be hidden. I understand that all of you except Mr. Ruko worked under my predecessor, I assume you also informed Mr. Ruko that he would not be working with the original L."

I paused as Matsuda chimed in,"No L, the director didn't think it was necessary."

He sounded nervous and I remembered what L and Light had said about him, "Ah, well fill him in when you have time." I moved the chess pieces in front of me into different positions and marched a line of soldiers toward them.

"This will be where we meet to discuss the case, you understand of course that security measures in place will make it impossible for anyone other than yourselves to access this floor. Also several of the other's who were in line to cede L will be working closely with us. They're personalities vary greatly from what I believe you expect, bear that in mind."

Mello and Matt came into the room from a back area and I watched the men size them up, taking in Matt's cigarette, Mello's leather and all that they were.

Yagami spoke again, "Young man how old are you?" Matt just lit his smoke and took a drag, pulling out his game and not bothering to answer as Mello flipped him off and I sighed.

"Ignore them, they're not happy about being stuck inside." I looked at each man in turn, "Watari please give them the files I prepared. Gentlemen this is everything we've been able to conclude about the case, it isn't much but hopefully being closer will allow us to catch this killer before he kills again." I sucked on a piece of rice candy.

Matsuda spoke up, "Again? I didn't know there was a serial killer."

I sighed, "So far we've linked ten killings to this one, all apparent open and shut cases that never would've caught attention if Matt hadn't picked this one up out of boredom. The perpetrator is trying to draw someone out, he has obviously not succeeded so it follows that he will kill again."


A/N: This started out good and turned to filler for my tastes, also sorry for all the line breaks and perspective switching but it had to be done… you guys can rape me with a telephone pole for not updating in FOREVER. Okay?

Review! For more faster and to tell me what I did wrong Also take the poll on my profile, I beg you.
