Hello again everyone, I enjoy where this is going, but it seems like this story keeps going on and on...I have no idea how many chapters I'm going to make it...probably around 24-ish...I don't know! ^_^ I wanted to say though, that the friend that is helping me with this story and I are now currently together. *Cheers* Anyways, that makes me extremely happy, and should also help with my want to continue this story. Moving on, I hope you enjoy this chapter, there is quite a bit of Kira...so, I suppose he deserves his own warning. And to the people that reviewed, I thank you! X3 I'm sorry for those of you that want it, but no, there will be no lemon in this story. I enjoy fluff, but lemon is bad for my mental health to write.

Anyways, on with the story!

Under The Glass

Blood was everywhere. On my hands, my face, coating my eyes in crimson. Life was far off, mixing with the air that my lungs craved. I couldn't receive it, the air was too pure. My lungs cracked, tearing to pieces in my chest, sun pouring over my face. Don't give me the light, I don't deserve it! I just want darkness! My hair falls over my eyes as I struggle to move out of the light that has cast itself upon me. My arms lay limp at my sides, slashed up, crimson against white.

Roses lay around me, white dyed red, blood mixed with wine. I open my mouth, believing that my soul will escape for air, but it doesn't, it remains. I don't understand why, I can't comprehend it. A chance to survive above, a life away from the body, but it stays. I smile, the edges of my lips tugging up, the rouge liquid filling my mouth. It's air within it, but I can't breath, not now when I'm so close. Slowly, my eyes shut, and I feel my thoughts stray.

I see an angel, and I smile.

It's wings are black…

Time passed again, surprisingly faster than I ever would have thought. L's home was as welcoming as ever, well, more welcoming than the dreaded white walls of the hospital. Light hated it, that was something we both had in common. I could see him now, watch as his eyes turned a cold, stale auburn. "Why, Kira…?" He would whisper over and over again, his voice drowned out by blood and glass. "Why? Why else?" I would retort, and his body would begin to convulse with wonderful tremors. How beautiful he was like this, trapped here.

His body was torn, skin hanging off of thin and frail bones. He looked like a fallen angel, wings spread and ripped to shreds behind him in the crimson water. The site alone gave me chills of pleasure. Never had I seen something more disturbingly beautiful. His tears tasted of blood and glass, a taste I was beginning to crave, and knew I would never be able to shake off. It was like rain when you've had a six-month summer.

"Light…don't you see this is where you belong? Under this glass, perfectly preserved…hidden here I know you won't end me. Hidden here, you are mine and mine alone." He screamed, but the water around his body made it die down, suffocating him. "I'll kill L for you, I'll make your dream come true. Once he's gone, I'll have my Light back."

I swear I will…

So, he can't bother me anymore…

So, he can't take you away from me…

My eyes opened to the sound of bowls clanking in the kitchen, and I glanced around the empty room. I walked into the kitchen, rubbing my head, easing out the knots in my hair. "Does Kira-kun want something to eat?" I smiled, "Wow, I never thought L would offer his mortal enemy a bowl of cereal." His chuckle matched my own. "I need to feed Light, it's his body, remember? Or maybe you forgot, you parasite!"

A parasite…

A monster living inside of its host, eating it slowly from the inside out…

Yes, that was an accurate accusation.

"No, I'd never forget that." But, I already have. I sat down at the table, waiting for the food to be placed in front of me. When the bowl of cereal was placed before me, I smiled, instantly digging in. I never got to taste food, Light wouldn't let me, he kept me under lock and key. This all seemed to be knew. "It's yummy…" I murmured, and chuckled at L's expression. "What? I've never had cereal before." I said sternly, giving him my best death glare. He just chuckled, "Mass murderer, Kira, has never eaten one bowl of cereal?" "I guess not." I said, shrugging.

Why? Was cereal something that common?

After I had finished the bowl, I passed it to L, and he quickly put it away. "So, what's on the agenda today?" I asked softly, curious as to when this game was going to start. "Well, we'll see when you pass out."

What?

What was that supposed to mean!

Suddenly, my body felt weightless, almost like I was falling quickly down a flight of stairs. I slipped from the chair, curling up on the floor, my eyes quickly becoming glazed over and dazed. "You…" I whispered, my eyes slipping shut as my body finally gave up on me. I heard L chuckle, and suddenly his voice was all too close to my ear. "Ready to begin the game, Kira?"

I'm sleeping now, though my eyes aren't closed.

Through the darkened life he rose.

Slipping farther out of control,

Into the waters of the patrol.

I'm smiling now, though my mouth is straight.

Through the darkness of hell's gate.

Changing now at any rate,

Will certainly seal my fate.

I'm wondering now, though my eyes are dull.

Through the darkness, I feel his pull.

Wondering, losing, who I am,

Thrown out in the snow like a long lost lamb.

I'm laughing now, though no sound comes out.

He's running through my mind in route.

Only time will tell when this game will end,

And my will to live will bend.

I feel discarded, like there's something he wants that I just don't have.

Waking up was harder then I ever expected, even with Light under the glass it was hard to remain in control of my actions. I felt alone, almost like this was my own body. That was what I wanted from the start wasn't it? No, I didn't want to kill him…I just wanted him to belong to me. For me to be able to have him see life through my eyes, through my pure eyes. His judgment was tainted, filled with thoughts of that horrid detective.

But no…

No longer will I allow him to confuse Light, to taint his body with his hands.

I simply won't allow it!

"So, Kira finally woke up." I knew that voice, and I turned, feeling a familiar metal on my arms. This room again? I glanced up at him, frustration in my voice "What he hell do you plan on doing to me?" I asked, my voice seeming bored and uninterested. "I heard…" He started, "That mental pain never goes away, where as physical pain heals…" Slowly, L bent down in front of me, his eyes level with mine. "I want to see if that's true."

He left, and a moment later, my head was met with the barrel of a gun. "You're going to shoot me?" I glared at the gun as if it was a disease. "No, I'm going to shoot myself." He said, and I felt Light stir, I felt him hit the glass. "Wouldn't that be a bit contradictory? It would have the opposite effect. I want you to die." L smirked, and I felt the feeling in the pit of my stomach that always appeared when L gave that cruel smile.

I realized now that it was…

Fear…

A paralyzing and antagonizing fear of this man.

The man I wanted so desperately to kill.

"But Light doesn't." He said sternly, and held the gun to his forehead. "No!" Light screamed, breaking through as L's finger slid onto the trigger. "Don't do it L!" He yelled, and I fought to keep him back, his body pushing forward, trying to break the restraints that kept him secured against the wall. "Shut up, Light!" I screamed, the glass had broken, and the water was quickly rising.

I held him down, I forced Light to stay where he was. My nails dug into his throat, breaking the skin of his jugular, and watching the blood trickle down my fingers. "I said shut up." I whispered to him, and his eyes opened, blood running down his chin. "But, L…" "Shut up!" I screamed, thrashing at his face furiously, my nail catching his eye, causing it to instantly become filled with blood. It dripped down his cheek, but no pain was evident. In fact, Light was smiling.

"Kira…you are scared…I understand." He whispered softly, grabbing my wrist and throwing it off of his throat. "But you have to listen to me sometime." He whispered softly in my ear, and that was the last thing I heard before I felt something tear through me, straight to my heart. "Good night, Kira." He whispered, but his voice was far off as I plummeted into the glass filled water, watching it reassemble itself above me.

Finally I was in control…

Finally Kira was under the water, drowning on his own memories….

I glanced over at L, watching him set the gun down and walk over to me, arms wrapping around my torso.

Warm…

He was so warm…

"Light…" He whispered, "I'm so happy you're back."

I said nothing; just let the moment stay the way it was. It would be the memory I would send to Kira.

I would make sure he felt the torture.

I would make sure that he endured all hell had to offer.

And I alone, would take him there.

Well, there you have it! I hope you enjoyed it, and drop me a review if you dug this chappie!

Until Next Time!
