AN/ Hi and sorry that it took so long to update... School is starting so I'm having a hectic time adjusting to a new sleeping schedule. Once again I'm really sorry.

Chapter 7

Days passed, and the more that did, the more restless the others became. I also noticed that some were pairing off. BB seemed to be hovering by onyx half of the time, the other half was spent doing random things and sending me dirty looks(AN not that type of dirty, get your head out of the gutter!). Matt and Amber were hitting it off since bother turned out to be into gaming. And Mello, well, I walked in on him and Rowan making out.

However, it had been three days and Iris still hadn't woken up. Everyone was getting worried and you could tell. No one even tried to talk to me yet.

But on the fourth day, there she was. She still had bandages everywhere but since she was walking, the pain couldn't be that bad. Then I tried to talk to her...

"Are you okay?"

Her body went stiff and she turned around with a furious glare. "You throw me in an iron box, burn me, and ask if I'm 'Okay'?!? I brought you back to life and you nearly KILL ME!!! I warned you what would happen! Why didn't you listen?! Why didn't you trust me?! I thought you were my friend!" After her shouting I almost missed her whispered comment, "You're not worth it."

It felt like someone stabbed me and twisted the knife. It was a million times worse than my heart attack, I was nearly broght to my knees. I'm positive my face cracked, but she wasn't looking.

"I'll still help you with Kira, after I recover from iron poisoning," She said, "But after he is caught and/or dead, I'm gone."

I felt the word 'gone' echo in my mind. Amber and Mello walked in with bandages and other medication. Her arm, legs, and half of her face looked like boiling water was poured on it. It was oozing and black patches were on her skin.

"Your burns are healing nicely and the iron is almost completely out of your system. You should be all better in a few minutes with our magick." Amber happily reported. She made a gesture causing Onyx and Rowan come in as well as everyone else. The three girls clasped hands and started to mummer and chant in a language long forgotten. Burns receded and oozing soars became the soft pink of new skin. Her hair grew back, She looked like herself again. It felt good to see her like that, so good I had almost forgotten our earlier conversation. Her laughing expressive eyes were now cold and calculating, that was all that had changed.

"Let's just get this over with," And she popped our of sight.

The girls looked worriedly at each other and started to put glamour on the guys. Mello became a few years older with black hair and hazel eyes. Mat became a brown haired and silvery eyed guy, that's a few years older. BB's hair just grew longer and got a more angular face, while Near got Blond hair, blue eyes and a bit taller. All together they came and made my glamour. My hair and eyes became blue. Then they poofed us away to a place I never thought I'd see again the Task Force Head Quarters.

It wasn't to hard to get in, we just poofed. We were just behind them. Iris was already there and telling the group what she knew about Kira. Other than it being Light. She wasn't looking at anyone in particular, in fact she was simply looking out the window. The others all just looked at her, that is until Onyx coughed.

They looked up, shocked that anyone could break in and get behind them. I took note of Light sweating a bit.

"What are you people doing here? Don't you know this place is personal only?" Matsuda shouted.

Iris looked at everyone but me. "They are my friends, well, most of them are." The glance she flashed to me was so quick that I barely caught it. Unfortunately Light was looking in the right place at the right time. "However, that is an irrelevant point. Oh and you should know you don't have to act like the real L is alive. I know Kira killed him."

Light, who was probably trying to seem like how L should seem, sat and asked why she thought that.

"I saw the body and I was informed because I was one of the people watching over him."

Light was definitely nervous. If anything his eyes were slightly wider, his hands and arms were too tense. His acting had gotten worse since I last saw him. Such a Pity (All labyrinth fans will know why I say 'squee' at that line.). But she just kept saying all she knew about the case. Eventually she finished and started to leave the room. But she stopped at the door and turned to Light.

"Say'hi' to Ryuk for me, Its been ages."

AN/ YAY its a cliffy!!!! Your gonna have to wait because I don't have the next chappy written yet. Hey, Its just a warning...
