Extended to Infinity and Beyond
By Khorose
Summary: A vacation in L's summer home became a disaster. L, Watari, Light, Matt, Mello, Near, and Beyond must find out who was responsible. Suspicions arose, danger lurks in the mansion, and Light's the prime suspect.
Chapter 9: Consequences Be Damned
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe
Mello walked briskly towards - ah hell, he didn't really know. He didn't know which way L went, through the long corridors and twisted paths. It was very easy to get lost around here, and he was cursing the fact that Watari was not here with him.
"Darn it!" he swore as he came across another dead end, "Just where the hell am I!"
He had no choice but to keep going. But this house was just too big. The floor creaked ominously as he stepped on the tiles, and Mello sneezed at all the dust floating around.
"Well," he muttered, "Someone's not doing a good job at housekeeping."
He made another few turns, and was pleasantly surprised by the bedroom door that greeted him. "Huh, seems like I didn't get lost after all," he said.
The room was still splattered with blood at the entrance. B's blood. Mello shuddered, took a deep breath, and leaped over it.
Before B had died, he had been on to something. Hadn't he said that Light's diary was the key to the case. But they had searched he entire house for it, and coming up with none. The only place they hadn't checked was the bedroom, as the image of B's unmoving body flashed in their minds every time they tried to enter.
On the bed- no. It was not on the desk either. Maybe inside? No, just a couple of cobwebs and old underwear.
Ugh.
"Where is L anyways," Mello muttered, "This will be much easier to find with him around."
"M-Mello?"
Mello had to stifle a scream as he spun around. Finally, he saw the person who said his name and cast a glare over to him.
"What do you want, Kira?" he sneered.
Light glared back, "Excuse me if I feel worry that you have been gone for so long."
"I got lost."
"From the kitchen to here?"
"Where did you go anyways?" Mello demanded, "L is gone, did you take your time trying to kill him?"
"STOP SAYING THAT!" Light shouted furiously, "I am sick and tired of your accusations against me all the time! I hate the fact that I couldn't contribute to the case, and that someone is obviously trying to frame me. You are just trying to find a scapegoat for Kira!"
"Prove it then!" Mello yelled back, "Prove it to me that you are not Kira! Find the diary!"
Light stiffened, then glared, "No." he gritted out.
"Why the hell not?"
"Be-because you are not going to understand! I wrote gory stories in there, so you will find some ways to pin them on to the evidence of me being Kira!"
"So you're saying that if I find your diary, I will find the evidence that you are Kira?"
"No! I am not Kira!"
"So you say," Mello continued searching the room, only to pause as he spotted the edge of a black cover poking out from under Light's bed. "That must be it."
"What..." Light gaped, "It wasn't there before when I searched for it!"
"Oh, spare me your lies," Mello waved dismissively, "Now, let's see what is so important about this 'Death Note'.
He flipped open the pages.
Dear Diary
I love the title! It sounded very badass and like something that you could use to kill people. I know, that's not a good thing to think about. But, maybe if I expel all my anger here, I could be the perfect son that dad wanted.
This is given today to me in my anger management class. Ryuk looks ugly.
Enough of this stupid rambling! I will be using this notebook to write stories! To those who dares to READ my diary, well, they would've done something that deserves me writing about their deaths!

Dear Diary.
Matt hogged all the internet to himself and his video games when I desperately needed to get my homework done! I need my research!
I can imagine what he'll do if his video games ever became a reality! He would have drowned in a haunted house ages ago! He would have gone to the washroom for some reason or the other, and then BANG! Somebody hit him over the head and tries to drown him! I'm saying 'trying' because if he dies then Mello would have killed me. So there!
...Huh, actually worked, not that angry now. I guess I'll continue those small stories then.
- Light
Dear Diary,
Beyond is a jerk.
Today he followed me around and started sprouting off numbers!
"That's the day you will die," he said in a creepy voice and a disturbing grin. Grr.
Why the hell did he say that? Did he want me to die? If HE wants it that much then he could go die somewhere too! Perhaps by a serial killer, that would be ironic. I'm bad with names, so let's just go with Kira, the English pronunciation of Killer. He could be on some sort of a case, then was stabbed in the heart. I hear that vampires die from a stake to the heart, and I'm not sure if Beyond's one or not. Black hair and red eyes and all that.
You know what? This writing stuff is fun! And those are only stories, I could do whatever I want!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAA! I AM GOD!
Yay!
-Light
Dear Diary
L is an atheist. Sigh.
Ah well, if I am god, then any non-believers will go, too. Besides, this is just stories, what harm could it do?
So L will get kidnapped by one of his old enemies (he has a few) and then... Hm... I actually like L, so I'll give him a relatively painless death then! He didn't actually anger me today, so I'll be lenient. I guess a shot to the head will be quick.
See ya! Tomorrow Watari's picking us off for that sleepover at L's summer house!
-Light
Mello gave Light his best exasperated stare, "So this is nothing special? Just a plain ol' diary of a whiny little kid?"
"Hey! You're younger than me!"
"And you are acting younger than me, which is quite a feat."
"So you believe me now?" Light asked, "I - for the last time - am NOT Kira!"
"But you did include Kira in B's part of story," Mello pointed out, "And... shit..."
"What is it"
Mello growled, "Damn it! Just when I started believing you aren't Kira!"
"What! What is it?" Light cried frantically.
"This!" Mello shouted, "I found a pattern! Every thing you wrote in here came true! Matt almost died from drowning in a washroom! B died from stabbing done by Kira! And now, L... L is in danger!"
Light froze, realization coming clear on his face.
"I've got you now, KIRA!"
I bet you were all expecting that, eh? Stay tuned for next week!
I'm sorry for the late update, but it's CHRISTMAS so I thought I'd do it today.
... So basically I forgot and is completing this as soon as I could.
Merry Christmas!
