" Lawli-chan! "
A teenage girl with black long hair turned to the sound. She smiled at the two boys that ran toward her. The book that she read, she put it on her lap.
"Yes, Tsuki?"she asked, smiled.
The brunette boy pouted. "I told you to not call me 'Tsuki'! I don't like it! It makes me feel like I'm a girl!"
The boy with black hair that stood next to him snorted derisively. "Heh. You said that, but your attitude like so."
The brunette pointed at his friend angrily. "You ... you bas-mmmprhp!" A hand over his mouth, made him unable to finish his speech.
" There, there... "the teenage girl said, her hands still on the brown-haired boy's mouth."Don't quarrel. And, didn't you have promise to not to swear again, Night God?"
The brunette looked down with embarrassed. "Sorry, Lawli ..."
The girl smiled. "Now, that's okay." She patted the brown-haired boy's head. She then turned to the boy with black hair. "And, you, Beyond. Stop teasing him. As friends, you must treat at each other well. Understand?"
Both boys nodded sorry. "Yes, sis ..."
Her smile widened, she stroked the two boy's head. "Good boys..." She hugged her knees, raised her hand to bit her finger. "Now explain, why did you called me with called me so loud?" she asked.
The brunette boy lifted his face to see pale white girl's face in front of him. "Is that true? Are you really going to leave this place?" he asked, concern on his face.
The girl was silent for a moment before nodded. "Yes..."
Beyond's eyes widened, so did the brunette boy next to him. "Why? Can't you stay here with us?" Beyond said shocked, his red eyes glowed slightly.
"Both of you know well that I can't."She smiled sadly, she pulled the boys into her arms."Even so... I will never forget you... both of you and Adrian are very important to me, Beyond, Night God."
The brown haired kid thrust his head to her neck. "I also will never forget you, Lawli-chan. So..." he held out both hands to hold the girl's cheek, his eyes serious. "When we grow up... will you marry me?"
Her eyes widened, so did the eyes of the boy with black hair. "He-hey! That's not fair! Propose her is not included in our agreement!" Beyond protested.
The boy that called 'Night God' stuck out his tongue. "Fuck with that! Lawli is mine! Right…" He kissed her lips, made the girl and Beyond's eyes widened. "... Lawli-chan?"
Beyond pulled hard the auburn boy away from 'the victim'. "You son of a bitch! Don't touch MY Lawli!" he snapped, and grabbed the girl's neck and kissed her hard. "She's mine! So fuck off!"
Night God looked at him angrily. Linking his brow, his hands clenched. "Teme ..."
A cough stopped the fight between two small children who still haven't even old enough to propose and claimed someone as his own. They both turned toward the girl that became the cause of their quarrel.
Lawliet closed her eyes, a sigh out of her mouth. What has he done in the past to make two boys scuffled over her? Especially if both of boys are still under ten. She wasn't a pedophile.
"That's enough, kids."She interrupted as she tapped her forehead."You twerps... Aren't you too young to propose someone? Moreover, you don't understand about it." The boys will argue it, but stopped by Lawliet."And I'm not interested in children. I'm not a pedophile, you know."
"That's why I said that we'll get married when we grown!It's not matter again, right!"Night God said.
Beyond nodded in agreement. "Yes, he's right. And I'll do anything to get you, Lawli" His red eyes stared intently.
Both boys looked at each other with a death glare, before turned again to the girl that older than them and yelled.
"I love you, Lawliet! Marry me!"
CHAPTER 03
MEMORIES
A pair of jet black eyes opened slowly. The voices in her dreams still rang in her ears. Her gaze traced the ceiling as if it's worth to look.
A sigh out of her mouth. It's been a long time she hadn't dreamed about it. The past where she's happy as a teenager, nurtured the most brilliant children at Wammy's House.
Beyond...
Night God...
Why did she dream about them again? If that just Beyond in her dream, it's reasonable. But, why Night God also come to her dreams?
What's more...
...why - of all the moments she spent with them – was that event that haunting her mind?
Something warm swept her face. She could hear breath in her ear. Both black eyes glanced slowly, and something that she saw made her very surprised.
Light...
His face was very close. L tried to stay away from him, but something held her back.
And she realized that Light's hands held him tightly.
What the...
L looked down, her eyes widened when she saw her naked body in the blanket.
What the fucking hell happened to them? How could she nake-
The incident that occurred last night shadowed in her mind. His lips that crushed her lips. Warm touches on her body. Soft words that come out of Light's mouth. And extraordinary sensations that spreads in her body...
Oh, God...
She has given herself to Light...
Had offered her own body to the enemy in front of her...
...without a slightest resistance.
She really has broken her promise to Watari...
Why? Is she so drunk that she could let Light touch her?
A moan made her back to the real world. Light's eyes twitch just before his breath calmed down and back flat. L shifted the sleeping man's arms from her body, slowly got out of bed, careful not to rouse Light.
She picked up her clothes that scattered on the floor, immediately dressed, her mind was a mess. Light... Kira has been touched her, and she let that happened. She let the prime suspect crossed the line.
L walked out of the room with face down, bangs covered her eyes, shut the door in silence, left Light in his bed asleep alone.

Red eyeballs watched the crowd that passed in front of him. Letters and numbers seen above people's heads. His eyes then caught something, a sly grin tugged on his lips. He rose, walked to follow a man that dressed casually out of the hotel.
The night become later. Farther to walk, the crowd less, and he was pleased with the way things become easier. He and his prey went into the red district. Followed him into a small alley. His smirk widened.
It's show time.
He pulled out a knife from his sleeve. Ran as fast as lightning, covered the man's mouth from behind, stabbing his stomach and pulled it down until the wound got wider. Blood oozed, intestines gushed out.
The look of horror on the man's face, and it made the killer more pleased. He held the victim's body that can still be revolted on dirty ground, stabbed his throat, made him unable to speak.
A chuckle out from the mouth of the man who is comparatively teenager. Splashes of blood stained his cheek. "You know what the most exciting in the world?" he asked, his voice cold full of pitched madness.
The man didn't answer. Not that he wouldn't answer, but he couldn't. The killer grinned. "Oh, I forgot. You can't talk." He directs the knife into his victim's face. "Then, the mouth is no longer useful." He pried open the man's mouth, insert the knife into it, tearing the walls of the mouth. Look of fear and pain implicit in the man's wide eyes.
Slowly the man raised his hand, with his strength that weaker due of blood loss he hit the killer's temple, made the killer fall from his body. The killer went silent, spit blood before rubbed the blood flow on his mouth with the back of his hand. His red eyes glowed.
"Bitch." He walked toward the helpless victim, stood strong next to him. "I wanted to enjoy our games, but this forced to end..." Sadistic grin visible. "Because you've made me angry."
He waved his hand that held a knife, pointed it at the hand that had struck him. Blood spurted along with the arm cut off of the body. He cut the man's other hand, and then cut off his legs. Laughter muffled by the sound of the crowd's night activities. The ears slashed. Eyes taken out. Chest torn apart. And the last, heart he had given to the ruler of the night.
The numbers on the man's head changed drastically until it became zero.
Even so, he still not satisfied.
He carved out something on the victim's disintegrate body.
A message to his beloved.
0************************0
Today's really made him annoyed.
That's currently what in the mind of Yagami Light.
Not only his head was very painful when he woke up, but he was also shunned by he-who-wasn't-he-who-is-greatest-detective-in-the-world.
And it's not just feeling alone, his father and other investigators are also aware of it.
So what happened yesterday that made L's so angry at him to extent cold to him.
Last thing he remembered was that they sang the song "Whiskey Lullaby". The song that's often played by his friend and 'knows-who-is' L's friend a long time ago.
Next? He didn't remember anything.
He still vaguely remember them talked about something. Whatever it is he didn't know. And it seems like he was crying that night - his face red as he remembered it. But what happened next was opaque. Can't remember at all.
Worked through the night without someone that can debate with him wasn't fun at all.
Light, therefore, found today's very annoying.
He glanced at the woman beside him, his eyes slowly traced the handcuffs that tied their hands together.
Whether it's just feeling, or the chain is longer than before?
Leave aside that trivial matter, what matters now was made Ryuuzaki want to talk to him.
He has established his heart. "Anu... Ryuuzaki."
The sound of the chair's wheel shift echoed in the room.
"Today's dismissed. You can go home. Thank you for your hard work."
L out of her chair, pulled a dumbfounded Light, and left the others confused investigators.
It will likely require patience and a long time for Light to make L talk to him again.
0************************0
Though his friends regard him as a fool, Matsuda knew that he's not stupid. That's why he could be a police investigator. He just didn't know what to do to help his comrades, because in Kira cases there are two geniuses that handle it. And his careless nature have been made his worse in his comrades eyes.
He's not stupid, but also not as smart as L or Light.
But, when it comes to psychology, personality and human feelings, he knew he was more skilled than L and Light.
Not mean to brag, anyway.
And this time he sensed any tension between the two masterminds of this investigation.
Light seemed very confused and upset about it.
Also didn't remember.
A memory about that night about what he watched on one of monitors came to him. His face turned red, got odd stares by the people around him.
Remove... delete... erase... don't remember about it anymore. He repeated the words, shook his head hard, made the people around him stared at him more strangely.
His intention that night returned to the investigation room was to took a folder that left behind, eventually became watched a scandal from the monitors that connected to cameras in a room... who knows that room belongs to, it seemed like just an empty room.
Maybe for most people it's common (yeah... talk about the mind of the people at this age), but on this case, two people that doing it was Light and L.
L.
That antisocial detective.
Maybe alcohol can really change a person, huh.
Yes... he knew they were both drunk when doing it. Because if they didn't drunk, it certainly will never happen.
I wonder what would happen if Commander Yagami saw the tape.
Maybe he will go to the hospital again.
And Watari. Did Watari saw it?
But, that made him nervous is...
Misa.
What if Misa know about it. Maybe she'll get angry and cry.
He wonder why Light made her his girlfriend, he knew that his commander's son didn't love her.
What is it because of pity? If so, is not fair to Misa.
Aaaah...! Matsuda ruffled his hair in frustration. Might be better if he just kept secret about it. That way there would be no a 'war' happened.
His eyes accidentally catch someone who was walking in the park.
Ryuuzaki?
Why would she be here?
He ran up to him. His hands were raised, ready to pat his shoulder.
"Hey, Ry-!" his calling stopped when the person turned around. Sharp red eyes greeted him. And that's when his instincts screamed.
Run! That person is dangerous!
The person was stared at Matsuda in silent for a moment before smiled. "Can I help you?"
Matsuda jolted back to reality. He pulled his hand from the person's shoulder. It was then he realized that the person's body is so build, though his face is somewhat similar to L.
He laughed nervously, scratched the back of his head. "Ah... so-sorry. I think you're Ryo, my friend."
Ryo? Why didn't he say "Ryuuzaki"? Inwardly he's confused.
"Hm..."
Matsuda bowed. "Gomen."
"It's okay."
Matsuda straightened up after heard the man said that.
"All right. Then I'll go now." Matsuda ran away. He turned, still running, lifted a hand. "Once again, sorry!" he shouted.
He turned again, and ran to the end of the park. But this time he felt terrified due to a faint whisper from the man.
"Until we meet again, Matsuda-kun."
Because he never told his name.
