Nix sits in a cell, her hands cuffed behind her back as she sits on the bed within the room, her eyes cold and guarded as she sits in utter silence. She hadn't moved, hadn't spoken a single word or made a sound. L watched in thought, frowning. V was pacing the room, one she was amazed that she got to meet THE L, the detective all detectives want to be. Two she was worried and scared for Nix. L hummed, pushing a button on the mic before him.

"Miss Thompson I have a few questions for you, are you willing to speak with us?" L asked calmly.

"No." She said blankly. L and the others blinked in shock. "I will not utter a single word from this point forward until I'm allowed to see Victoria." She stated before growing silent once more.

"And why would that be?" L was met with silence.

"I can always force answers from you." She smirked and her chest heaved with silent laughter. Matt watched and he felt his stomach drop as he watched her. It looked so much like Phoenix's silent laughter. L hummed, frowning as he watched her. She looked like she was amused by his threat. From the scars and her lack of fear he'd guessed she'd be tortured before. L sighed, this was going to be difficult. Nix moved, laying back calmly and silently, her hair splaying out around her head. L asked her questions for hours on end, the only thing he received was utter silence.

For five hours he repeatedly questioned, her, silence. Nothing but silence from the room. L was extremely annoyed enough that it was actually showing through his emotionless mask. The others were impressed by her ability to keep silent for so long. It was clear she was mentally disciplined, despite the way she acted around others. L sighed, turning and looking at V who had sat and watched patiently.

"Miss Williams." V perked up, having predicted this would happen she jumped up.

"Lead the way!" L blinked, looking her over and smirking ever so slightly. He was impressed by the girl, having watched her work and looked into the cases she took. She could easily match him in intellectual abilities. Watari calmly came, leading V down to the girl laying on the bed in the cell. She was perfectly still and perfectly silent, her eyes closed. If it weren't for the steady rise and fall of her chest they would think she was dead.

Matt, L and the others watched as V ran into the room, Nix slowly opening her faded turquoise eyes and sat up, still utterly silent. V shoots over and wraps her arms around Nix, hugging the girl tightly to her.

"I'm trying raspberry-chan, I really am. I'll get you out of here." V said, cradling the cuffed girl to her. Nix smiled lightly, moving and burying her face in V's shoulder. Her head moved and L leaned forward, his eyes narrowed. V had quieted down and seemed to be listening intently. L turned up the volume, yet couldn't hear anything. Somehow her voice wasn't being picked up by the mic's. So they watch, waiting for anything to show them what she could be saying. Then V started stroking Nix's hair.

"It'll be okay Nix, I know you're scared but it'll be okay." V said, hugging the girl tighter to her as she rubbed her back. Nix lightly head butted V's shoulder, looking up at her and pouting.

"Butthead I didn't want them knowing I was scared." She hissed, V just smiled sadly at the girl.

"Sorry." She murmured, nuzzling her face into Nix's hair. Watari walked in, tapping V's shoulder quietly.

"Miss time is up." He said, V pouted but nodded, gently kissing the top of Nix's head and letting go.

"I'll be back raspberry-chan, I promise." Nix nodded, smiling lightly as she watched V go. Nix turned and faced the camera and the look in her eyes startled Matt, who had watched intently. It was fierce, protective and feral; all the while her face remained calm. L hummed, pushing the mic button.

"Are you willing to talk to us Ms. Thompson?" Nix nodded.

"I am." She stated calmly, her voice strong.

"Is your name Cassandra Thompson?"

"Yes." L read her eyes. Truth.

"Why did you chose the nickname Phoenix?"

"Because it was interesting, unique, and Phoenix's are my favorite mythical being." Truth. L looked up, seeing a very displeased looking V walk in, grumbling something to herself under her breath in what sounded like German? L turned back.

"Are you the criminal Phoenix?"

"No." L hummed.

"Then are you a victim of the criminal Phoenix?" Nix's eyes widened and she froze, staring at the camera, before she lay down, turned her back to the camera and curled into herself, fisting her hands as they rest behind her back. Matt blinked, watching her as he frowned sadly. From her reaction she was a victim. Matt frowned, watching her sadly until L spoke up.

"I don't believe her." All heads snapped to L.

"But it's clear she's a victim." Light said, watching the detective.

"Yes, that much is certain. But I don't believe she is a victim of the criminal Phoenix." He stated calmly, turning and looking at Watari. "Bring him here." Watari nodded in understanding, leaving the room. They all looked at him in confusion. V sat in the back corner of the room, watching L, her fiery hazel eyes flashed a dark orange in rage.


Nix: I'm working on the next chapter now. No promises~
