I was hoping to have this story done by December but I don't think I will be able to. Accursed finals and college!

Shortly after L called Watari the police showed up. Some were securing the scene, others had questioned L and Raito. After each of them had told the detective what they saw and how they knew Misa they were free to leave. L had Watari pick them up, neither of them said anything about Misa's disappearance, Raito's stalker, or the Death Note until they were inside L's hotel room.

"This can't be happening," said Raito. "I should've been more careful."

"You couldn't have known it would've escalated to this," replied L. "Sometimes the smartest one can be easily fooled, trust me I know."

Raito sat with his head in his hands, why did he feel guilty? Before when Misa was caught he didn't care, everything went down hill because she was involved. So what was different now? He was the one who ran into her, he was the one who told her to show L her Death Note.

"It's all my fault," thought Raito.

"Raito?" said L.

"What is – " he looked up and saw the white shinigami.

"Yo, long time no see," said Ryuk.

Rem ignored Ryuk and was starring intently at Raito.

"Tell me what are you planning now Yagami Raito?" asked Rem hotly. "What are you planning to do with Misa this time?"

"Nothing! I'm not planning anything!" exclaimed Raito.

Rem did want to believe this human, this monster who abused anyone to get anything he wanted, suddenly looked innocent. She could see it in his eyes something about him was different. Not only that but one of the numbers above his head reflecting his life was changing constantly, never the same number for more than a few seconds.

"What makes you so sure I'm going to do something?" asked Raito angrily, this shinigami was really pissing him off. "Forget it you probably won't care to hear it. Just give me a chance to save Misa then.... if it comes to that, you can kill me."

As this was going on L couldn't help but think, "There is a 42 percent chance Raito could be making this up but there is a 58 percent he has changed. If this was all an act why would he tell me everything about the Death Note? Or was it part of a plan? But Raito came to him with the Death Note the Raito before wouldn't have done that...." L wasn't sure what to think.

Rem was hesitant but finally came to a decision, "Fine I'll give you one chance to save Misa, and once I know that she's safe I'll kill you."

"Gonna go through with it Raito?" asked Ryuk.

"If that's what you want," said Raito sternly while looking at Rem.

Something was off, Raito went to extreme measures to prove his "innocence" before but nothing like this. What's going on and what's going to happen? L thought.

"Can you tell us where Misa is and her abductor?" asked L.

"I'll tell you where Misa is but not the man," said Rem.

"Still sticking to some of the rules, huh?" said Ryuk.

Rem gave them Misa's location with great detail and told them the man came by twice a day always at different times.

"How are you going to do this?" asked Raito.

"Simple, contact the police," said L as he pulled out his phone.

"Anyone could've done that," thought Raito.

"I suggest you return to where ever you came from incase this stalker/abductor comes back," L said to Rem.

Rem nodded then looked at Raito one last time and left.

"So what are you going to do now with so many hours left to live?" chuckled Ryuk.

"Shut up" said Raito.

"Is there anything you would like or lie to do before…" L trailed off.

"No, just call the police," said Raito.

L dialed Watari, "Can you connect me with the Japanese police and put my voice modifier on."

Police Station

Matsuda sat at his desk, nothing was coming up for the Amane Misa case. To make things worse there weren't any leads, no evidence was recovered from her apartment nor did anyone see anything suspicious. The case was going to be closed in a matter of weeks if there wasn't any evidence brought in. He sighed while going over her file again, somehow Misa Misa seemed familiar somehow personally.

"Wait, 'Misa Misa?' Where did that come from?" Matsuda thought.

Just then the phone rang, "Hello Shinjuku Police Station (1), Matsuda speaking how may I help you?"

"Go to a park eleven miles from where you're at, turn left on Sakura Street there will be a shed by a pond go in there and find a trap door, Amane Misa will be in it," came a strange voice.

"What!? Who are you and how do you know this!?"

"…Deneuve," the line went dead.

"What!?" everyone in the department was starring at him now. How did Deneuve, one of the worlds best detectives know where Amane Misa was?

"Forget it, that doesn't matter right now," thought Matsuda.

"Something wrong Matsuda?" asked Aizawa.

"I know where Amane Misa is."

The whole department was shocked.

Elsewhere

Both Aizawa and Matsuda found the shed and went inside. They searched the place but they didn't find anything.

"You sure this isn't a wild goose chase?" asked Aizawa.

"That can't be true, was it a prank?" thought Matsuda.

"Come one lets g– " Aizawa walked over one part of the floor that sounded hollow.

The two men looked at each other the tore up the floor. Surely enough there was a trap door and inside was Misa barely breathing.

1. I have no earthly idea where in the world their police station is so I made it up. I'll do that with most places.

And thanks for the reviews!
