Chapter 3: On A Trip To No Where

June 16, 2005: An Abandoned Beach House in Los Angeles

The following night, Beyond thought quietly to himself how to get their plan started. He would have to admit he didn't really like the idea of sharing his victims with someone else and having to get use to their point of view. Considering it was Juliet, things would be harder than usual.

He'd had to make sure she could keep a secret and not get caught and destroy their plan. He also doesn't know how she'll react after he's killed someone. Back when she was an accomplice, she'd always overreacted when Beyond came home with a bloody knife and shirt and that wicked spark in his eyes.

Juliet slept on his bed, cuddled up uncomfortably beside his hip as he looked up things on her laptop. When he looked up news about Kira, he's noticed that killings have escalated in Japan.

Finally, on one website, he saw that L had found out that Kira was in Japan. That was all he needed to know. Beyond yawned, ready to go to bed as he looked down at Juliet. He pondered on whether he should move her or just stay up for the last of the night. Beyond watched as Juliet grabbed onto his pants and rested her head on his lap. He heard a small whimper from her.

"Don't...go.." she mumbled, clutching tighter onto his pants. Beyond grabbed onto her hands and removed them as he held them, his burned rugged skin brushing against hers. Beyond sighed, knowing that when she saw him she must of thought he looked so different now. Suddenly, Juliet opened her eyes and looked around, she saw she was on Beyond's lap, him holding her hand. Juliet blushed, looking into his scarlet eyes. "Oh, Beyond, I'm sorry, I didn't know-"

Beyond shushed her, sitting her up. Juliet rubbed her eyes. "I must of dozed off on your bed, I'm sorry. Let me just move." Juliet stood up and got in her bed, curling back up so she could go to sleep. After Beyond assumed she was asleep, he laid down on his own bed and fell asleep.

He quickly woke up when he felt something warm brush against his back. It was soft and clinched onto him tightly. Beyond turned over and went aflame when his face was mere inches from Juliet's. She'd climbed onto his bed and fell asleep next to him. Her body was shaking and she looked unsettle in her sleep, whimpering. Beyond sighed, looking at her sorrowful face as it stuttered small words like "no" and "stop", every now and then he'd catch his name slip out of her mouth.

"You never change do you, cry baby," he teased, knowing she couldn't hear as he turned his body.

...

Two days later, Beyond and Juliet had boarded a plane to Japan. After he explained everything to Juliet, he felt it was right to get to Japan as soon as possible. Beyond believed that L would most likely be in Japan after he found out Kira was in Japan. Now he could get both L and Kira's attention.

When the plane started, Beyond felt the sudden urge to eat jam, but he hadn't packed any at the moment. "Where did you get all of this money to afford this stuff anyway Juliet?" Beyond asked. Juliet snickered, about ready to brag. "Well, when you were arrested I got a job and started saving up my money. All together in this past year, I saved up more than a thousand dollars. When we get to Japan I'm sure we could cash in the money so we could get Japanese money and find a place to stay at."

Beyond sighed. "So many things have changed since I've been gone," he said. "Not really, things haven't really changed. But that's the past, let's stick with the present, OK Beyond?" After an hour had passed, Juliet started to get annoyed when Beyond started complaining about being hungry and how he wanted jam. "I love your name Juliet," he said. "Oh really, why is that?" she asked, uninterested

"Because of the beginning letter, it's a J, and that also stands for Jam. I really want some right now." Juliet moaned, resting her head on the glass. "Alright, I get it, you're hungry."

"What's this attitude suddenly, Juvie Julie?"

"You keep complaining about wanting to eat, I get it OK, now please just be quiet."

Beyond chuckled leaning back in his seat. "Look at you, with your English accent. Should I serve you a danish of some sort?" he teased, using her same accent. Juliet ignored him, looking down at the states. "A long time ago you wouldn't have complained about this, you've grown up so much huh? If you weren't so close to me I would have slit your neck by now," he said. Juliet groaned, closing her eyes so she wouldn't have to here him anymore.

When Beyond noticed she'd fallen asleep, he laid back in his seat, gazing out the window. "Juvie Julie," he whispered. Night fell quick and Juliet was fast asleep. Beyond sighed, his stomach growling. He nearly jumped when he felt Juliet's head press against his shoulder. What is with her and cuddling with people when she's asleep, Beyond thought. He merely watched as she clutched onto his shirt. "No, please..." he heard the words slip from her mouth.

Beyond had noticed a long time ago that'd she'd talk in her sleep. He guessed it was a bad habit of hers. Sometimes when she talked, she'd say a full sentence once or twice, then Beyond would add up what she said and guess what her dream was about.

It wasn't until he was about to doze off when he heard her again. "Is this really the end..?" she asked herself. Beyond watched as tears streamed down her cheeks. Her cheeks where red as if she were blushing after saying that, her tears looked misty like acid. Beyond took his thumb and softly wiped the tears from her eyes. Beyond yawned once more and fell asleep.

The sun began to rise and Juliet woke up, looking at Beyond with fear. It was just a dream, she thought.

Juliet sighed out of relief, wiping tears from her eyes. Juliet couldn't really understand what her dream was about, but it sent shivers down her spine. She just saw things, it was in black and white, and she could see herself and Beyond like she was a camera waving around crazily. Everything she heard sounded like a blur and it seemed like she was in the past with Beyond. In one flash she could of sworn she saw Beyond and herself kissing.

She could feel her lips against his still, though it was only an instant picture, because it immediately turned into another flash of black and white and a different image. Juliet was trying to keep her heart rate down as she looked at Beyond's face. It was so relaxed for someone with such sick thoughts.

Juliet rested her head on Beyond's shoulder and waited for the plane to land.

What do her dreams mean, are they bad or good? I guess you'll have to read until it's resolved.
