Disclaimer: Arigato! Hello everybody! Sorry for not updating, for I have been writing a few other stories. Okie Dokey! I still do not own Death Note, or any anime for that matter R&R and feel free to PM me for ideas on one shots, so unleash your ideas on me. Except for a friend of mine (she knows who she is.) For whom I promised to write a lemon for if she gave me some of her cupcake. Let's just say that a lemon will soon be on the site that will involve Mello and a Willy Wonka costume -_-'

Ni-pah~

Chapter 6: Eloping

Rabbit stretched herself over her crisp bed sheet, the white of the fabric made florescent due to all of the lamps shining on it. She reached under her pillow and retrieved her mobile phone, which she had found on a seat near a bus stop. Technically its owner was on the seat and had dropped it under herself as she fumbled through her bag. Oh well. Her loss. As Rabbit pulled her overnight bag from under her bed, she switched the lamps off. If she was going to leave, let everybody find out. Maybe I didn't think this through very well She thought to herself as she walked down the stairs. Maybe I should just go back to my room...nahhh. She began to walk down the stairs quietly, breaking into a loud run down the last flight. As she ran through the door, she didn't see the young boy hiding behind the concrete wall with his packet of cigarettes.

The cool night air was crisp and bit ruthlessly at her exposed face. "Brr." Her teeth chattered as she climbed the brick walls, the vines offering as makeshift ropes as she put her full weight on them. The road ahead was rather enclosed by tall trees and bushes. As Rabbit raised her white hoodie over her ponytail and pulled it further over her eyes. She walked about five miles down the gravel street until she reached a larger main road. She continued her walk until she found the house she was looking for. A dilapidated two storey building, blackened by ashes. She creaked the door open and coughed as a large amount of dust fell onto her head. Rabbit pulled her scarf from her neck and covered her mouth as a barrier to stop more dust from getting past her lips. The house was special to Rabbit. Not exactly sentimental but it still held a few funny memories.

At ten years old Mello was as much a rebel as ever, and with Matt as a faithful sidekick, they had decided that a new place to hang out was needed as they had already broken their 'fort', a large tree that Matt had fallen from , nearly breaking his collarbone. Rabbit, whose small stature was good for climbing in windows and other crevices, was dragged along with Near who grudgingly followed for this particular escapade. After walking for over three hours on a chilly Saturday morning, an abandoned house had come before them. Considering the fact that it was quite recently vacated, the house was still in good condition. After Mello proudly proclaimed the new 'hideout' to now be their property, and that they should celebrate. Rabbit, who had lost her balance while climbing through the window, wasn't in the mood to say no. Near stood uncomfortably as he watched Matt pull a towel out of his blue duffle bag, along with a lighter that made Mello whoop at as he saw Matt's treasure and yanked it from his hands. As the redhead huffed and sulked, Mello lit the lighter, an evil grin on his face. Near's eyes widened and he gulped. Mello looked around proudly as he lit the towel and dropped it. A gasp emitted from Near. "What are you doing Mello?" Mello grinned again. "I'm marking the house!" Rabbit bit her lip. "Maybe you should...draw on the house instead of burning it...maybe?" Matt scoffed. "Where would the fun be if we just drew on it?" The redhead laughed as Mello drew the lighter under the cloth, which was set alight instantly "Woah!" All four of the children jumped as Mello yelped and threw the burning tea-towel to the floorboards, which were alight within seconds. Mello ran frantically for Matt's bag dumping its contents as he pulled on it."There's no water Matt!" he yelled accusingly. Matt threw his hands in the air instantly "I didn't know that we were going to need it!" Near stood and with great athleticism leapt out of the door glad to be the first one to escape the ruckus. Mello ran out of the house, closely followed by Matt. Rabbit stood over the flames, beating out the burning item with her jacket which promptly caught fire. Yelling in frustration and fear, the blonde girl ran out of the house screaming. As they caught their breath they ran to the closest phone box and placed an anonymous emergency call on the house. As the four children sheepishly watched the house burn brightly, they vowed to never return in case they were ever caught. The incident was never mentioned again.

Rabbit coughed again as she climbed the stairs, surprisingly the only part of the house that didn't look like World War 3. She pushed one of the blackened doors open gingerly and yelled happily when she found out the room had suffered almost minimal damage. It only smelt a little bit like burnt toast. The blonde girl sat crossed legged on the dusty rug. As she rummaged through her straining bad she pulled out all of her money and spread it on the floor. As she sorted the coins and the notes she swore. There was only just over three hundred pounds there. Rabbit groaned and banged her head on the wall. A loud thump erupted from downstairs making Rabbit yell in fear. As she fumbled her way through the darkness, considering the early hour of the morning it was still extremely dim house. Rabbit gulped and her voice shook as she spoke."H-hello? Is anybody there? I have a knife!" A bluff would only do her as good as anything for the moment. "Bullshit Rabbit. You don't have a knife!" "Who the hell are you!" Rabbit backed against the wall breathing heavily. "Oi Rabbit? You still here?"A female voice suddenly entered the house. "Is that you Brae?" Rabbit whispered. "Yeah! And Matt too!" Brae's voice was suddenly louder as she ascended the stairs. "Hey! I didn't think that you were serious about leaving!" Brae scolded as Matt's lighter suddenly lit the shadows. Rabbit frowned and averted her eyes from the brown ones that were staring at her. "How did you guys find me?" Rabbit whispered again. "Well I saw you run out Wammy's and thought maybe I should make sure that you're safe. I told Brae so we got on our bikes and rode here." "Why did you guys come here? I already told you I was leaving right? " Rabbit began to chew on her nails. Matt sighed and pulled the blondes arm into the bedroom. Brae ran after them quickly. "Woah! Fucking pervert! Gettoffa me idiot! " Matt rolled his eyes and sat on the rug as he fumbled for a torch."You're our friend Rabbit, so we thought that we'll throw you a party."Brae smiled as she pulled a bottle of scotch from inside her jacket. Rabbit's face dropped as Matt to a swig from the bottle and Brae did the same. "I am NOT going to drink that." Rabbit crinkled her nose at the smell of alcohol drifted from the glass bottle. "Why not? I thought that you were tough?" Brae taunted. A frown creased Rabbit's pale face. She grabbed the heavy bottle and sniffed it gingerly. The stench burnt her nose. "Just drinks some." Rabbit lifted it so her lips and gulped quickly. Both Matt and Brae cried out as Rabbit clutched her burning throat"Dipshit! " Matt yelled as he pulled the bottle from her hands. "You have to drink it slowly or it will burn your throat!" Brae laughed as the blonde girl in front of her blushed in frustration. "I did the same thing my first time as well!" "Can I at least ask where the crap did you guys get that?" A mischievous look was exchange between the two other teens. "Mello had quite a stash, I'll say that much." Rabbits green eyes rolled back "So you guys decided to drink it all." "Well yeah." "Fine. Give me another swig."

After about two hours Brae and Matt were almost delirious when It came to the crunch. They had drunk so much that Rabbit had found it amusing that they were still conscious, even if they had started to punch each other in the arms and giggle. "Hey Rab~~" Brae slurred. "Hmm?" Rabbit replied wearily. "Don't leave Wammy's. Please?" Matt nodded eagerly as Brae continued to speak. "'Cause Mello already left Y'know? It-hic-wouldn't be really that fair if everybody began to leave Y'know?" Matt had begun to drift off slightly as he twirled Brae's short hair between his fingers. "Yeah Rabbi-hic-t I don't want everybody to leave cause then I'll have to umm...study! And then wherever your gonna go, me and um...Brae will..like find you?" Matt's words were cut off as Brae slumped against his chest suddenly. "She's asleep." Rabbit pointed at the sleeping girl. Matt nodded and began to lower himself to the floor, making sure that he didn't wake the girl who was sleeping so snugly moulded into his torso. His head began to spin as he placed it on the dusty rug until Rabbit lifted his head and placed a sweatshirt under him as a pillow. "Thanks a million Rabbit." The red-head smiled as he closed his eyes and fell into his dreams. Rabbit sighed in relief and stood up. She had only had three or four sips of the bit alcohol, so she still had rather good balance. She grabbed her bag and slipped her hand into Matt's deep pocket and bummed four cigarettes and crept out the door quietly and closed it behind her. As she walked out of the burnt house, she started on her way to the train station. She looked 'cute' enough to pretend that she had 'lost' her train ticket and get away with it. She could forge her own 'permission to fly alone' sheet at the airport. She had a fake passport. Shit was gonna go down. She smiled as she grabbed one of the smokes and placed it in her mouth then realised she had completely forgotten a lighter. "Shit. Now crap is gonna go down."

Three hours later Rabbit had a plane booked and ready. She had to wait until three the next morning but hey. She got a seat with her measly three hundred dollars. She shuffled herself on a metal seat and feigned sleep as a creepy man sat next to her. Eventually sleep did come and three O' clock came and she had boarded a flight which was a direct flight to California, U.S.A. As she settled in her seat, she read over her passport and was startled to find that the name on it held a slight resemblance to her own, bar the last name that was printed. Christianna-Lee. Her real, honest name. The last part, Noir, was a fake and her nationality, British, was also a dud considering she remembered Roger telling her that she was French. Before the plane began to leave her phone rang softly "I think my friend said-"stick it in the back of her head" I think my friend said-"Two of them are sisters" I'm a murder tramp, birthday boy, I think I said "I'm gonna bash their head in, bash their heads in" I think he said."" People shot aggravated looks in her direction as she smiled sheepishly and look at the text message.

"Liar. You said that you'd stay. Don't matter. We will find you, count on it.-Matt"
Rabbit turned the phone off and chucked it in her bag. It was time for her to go to sleep anyway.
