"I know who killed L." "Curious, you're not hallucinating?" "Mello, now is not they time for lies. I'm telling the truth." Mello was shocked. He took her arm and pulled it to the door. "Where are you taking me?" "Roger's office, we need to talk. All of us."
~~ In Roger's Office~~
"Mello, why are you back in my office? I thought you were too upset." "Roger, we need to talk." He pulled Curious out from behind him, tears and all. "She knows L." "Mello, I thought I told you not to talk about it with her. Or even tell her of his death." "Roger, if she didn't even know about L's death you would have revealed some really harsh stuff. But a word didn't come out of my mouth. It was impossible for me not to think it, and she heard me. She fainted when she found out about his death, and when she had another vision. She knows who killed L. She knows Kira." "Curious, is this true?" "Every last word." "Well then, I don't want to worry you with responsibility. But since you know who killed L, Kira or not, do you think you could write down his name, or even his face?" "I only know his face, but I'm not the best artist." "Well anything is useful, so if you did this it would help our case very much." They paused. "Mello- Gimme some paper," He handed her a clean white sheet of paper along with a fully sharpened pencil. She started sketching. She was almost finished. Just then, Near opened the door. "What is Curious doing here?" "She's helping us with the investigation, idiot." "No fighting in here, boys. We talked about this. Especially when a lady is present."
"Anyway, I'm just here to get my puzzle. I'm sure that that's not something to fight over." Mello almost ran up to Near before Roger said, "Mello, no violence!" He stopped mid-run because he forgot about the no fighting rule. "Roger, can you tell me how and why Curious is helping the Kira investigation? Last time I checked Mello was instructed to keep his big mouth shut." "That's it Near!" Mello shouted. Curious ran up to stop them from fighting. "You've gotten cocky, Near. Are your words as big as your fists?" "You guys! Didn't Roger say no fighting with a lady present? And Near, Mello didn't say a word, I just heard it in his mind. I have tears because I know of L's death, and I know who killed him." Curious gave Near a hug and went back to the table to finish the drawing. "There. Two people. One human, one Shinigami." Everyone gasped. "Shinigami's don't exist!" Mello shouted. "Oh they do, and it is part of this man's killings." "Impossible!" he said. "On the contrary Mello. It is actually very well known to humans. Shinigami do exist. And Shinigami plural is still Shinigami." Mello looked as if he had seen a ghost, or imagined one at least. "Mello, you are excused. You too, Near. I need to speak with Curious alone." "Yes Roger." they said in unison. They slowly walked out, and you could hear the creeping of the door. "Mello what are you doing?" Near yelled in the best whisper voice he could. "I'm not leaving that easily." "Ugh!" Near walked off to his room while Mello stayed behind. "Curious, I thought you were going to refrain from telling people that you were psychic, and since when we're you able to read minds. We were supposed to discuss everything on the first day." "I'm sorry Roger, I just didn't think that I could hear the same thoughts if I told you. Besides, secrets are meant to be kept, right?" "Not from me, Curious. It is a sense of trust we must have. Even Mello trusts me, I hope, and we both know that Mello is a bit stubborn at times." "At times?" They both laughed. "I trust you Roger. There is nothing more to explain. May I leave now?" "Heavens no! We still have a lot to do on the Kira case! I found three results resembling your picture." He pulled out three pictures. "Him!" She pointed to the boy with brown hair, gleaming eyes, a brown suit, and a smile. "I wouldn't be smiling if I was him," she thought to herself. Luckily Roger couldn't read her mind, although she tends to think out loud. "The young man is part of the Task Force. He is deputy director Yagami's son, Light Yagami." "Curse that name!" she shouted, not able to hold it in. "Curious, I think I will put you in the run to be L's successor. You know more about him than anyone else in the world does. You knew his face before anyone else here. You've heard his voice, his words. If I didn't know any better I'd say you liked him, but I am much more mature than that. Even though he is gone you would be the perfect successor to him." "Well Roger, if you said that, it would be true. I love L, Near, and Mello equally. I have known them for quite some time. But now that I've met them I can't decide. And I can't meet L because he is dead. I have also had visions about Kira, and if it is safe to say, Light Yagami is Kira. He is followed by a god if death, aka a Shinigami, named Ryuk. He is quite nice, and luckily he isn't on Kira's side. Kira dates a woman named Misa Amane, aka Misa Misa the famed supermodel. He went to Cran University, one of best high schools in Japan, and applied to an IV league college in Japan, and got in for his grades. That is where he met L. And I can also see the unknown past, even though that's off topic." "Curious, you are free to go. You've cracked this case wide open for us. Thank you." "No prob, bye Roger!" she quickly opened the door to find that she slammed Mello's head against the wall. "Oh my god Mello are you ok?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "Lies!" She pulled him up and walked him back to their room and took out the first aid kit after putting Mello on the couch. "Mello, you're bleeding!" She kissed his head, knowing that it won't make the pain go away, but make him feel better. He smiled. "Mello, can you hear me?" "Yeah," "Whoo! I thought I lost you for a second." She took the alcohol soaked medical wipe and wiped up the blood. "It will only sting a little. But you shouldn't feel a thing. Just be glad it's on your forehead and not the top of your head." She finally wiped the alcohol away from the out side of the deep cut, and put a bandage on it. "There, now you look badass!" she said. Mello giggled. "You always know how to make me laugh!" Curious leaned towards him, putting her lips on his. Mwah! "Love you Mello." "Love you more!" "Love you most!" There was a pause. Curious realized that there should be no PDA when Near or Mello is around. In fact, not around Matt either. She had a thing for Matt, he just wasn't in her visions. Only one, but it was too unpleasant to remember. "So you understand I love you, Matt, Near, and L equally, right?" "Yeah, but I can't imagine you doing this with L," He grabbed her and kissed her as if he was stealing her soul. She enjoyed Mello's kisses A LOT. Near has some stiff competition. He let go and said, "All better," They giggled together and just watched some TV. Great end to the most bi-polar day in history. From sobs to smiles. Were problems solved? Not yet my friends. Not even close...
