This Much I Know is True - Near

Wow... I haven't written anything on here for way too long. My fingers can't even type as fast. Anyway, been going through my account; deleted a few and then decided to continue this one. Maybe one for every character... I hate Near, but I'm swallowing my pride to write this. ;)

I don't own death note or Near (thank god)


"That is impossible," the small boy said in a bored voice, hardly glancing up from his dice tower.

The blond woman tried again. "Near, I didn't say it was likely... But rather a small possibility."

"And this, Halle, is why you are a bodyguard and not a detective." She turned away, stung.

He let his shield down for a moment: "I apologize, that was unkind of me." ...But it makes me uncomfortable to even consider that idea.

"No harm done, Near." She smiled kindly.

He returned to his tower. Mello, Kira. True the idea was indeed laughable but that must have been how the task force considered Yagami. Halle, a double agent. The woman's motives were complicated and he needed to watch her. Was Yagami Kira? Or was he playing them all on a string like a marionette? Without the notebook they knew next to nothing.

I need L.

But L is dead. Sometimes that's all I know is true.


L will be next. :)
