Ahhhh I feel so sad about this. It's like…horrible but it's a somewhat angsty story…further more I'm about to start making two different fics….one for friends and one for personal gratification…YAY

Me : I nom on the delicious succulent lips of 'Mythical creatures and fanfics' as I continue to type fueled by Dethlokk, Yuki and Techno Daft punk and Benny benassi and a shitload of remixes

I recently discovered that ALL music simulates my mind like FUCK so it's like I've been pulling these chapters literally out of my ASS I hope you enjoy.

Near sighed. This was all winding down soon. He stared at the blank screen in front of him, thinking to himself.

'There is nothing to stop me….but much to kill me…' Near continued to toy with a fire truck that was right by his knee as the screen showed a hard working Lawliet, solving cases at extreme speed and popping candies into his mouth and strangely – smiling.

'Even he knows….fine...I will do my best.' Near whispered quietly to the shinigami that sat on the bed, patient. Waiting. Watching him and all around him with a serious glare in his shinigami eyes.

"Your lifespan, I'm not allowed to tell you…but you haven't got long left."

"I know that, which is why I'm about to finish it…I apologize."

The shinigami king simply nodded in respect for the young child. Knowing his death and the coming of it and facing it fearlessly. If only all humans were like this. Like the Spartans, like army soldiers, like warriors of ancient times.

Near got up after saving his imaginary town from the fire and walked over to the door, pushing it open slowly with his small hands.

"Everything feels very nice all of a sudden…" Near whispered as the shinigami floated after him.

"You know….it's not too late." the shinigami said in a gravelly voice. "Not too late to live."

"Love without sacrifice is not truly love is it?"

"Is the love you have now even love?"

"….Do not question me."

"Whatever human. Lucky I dropped my spare death note." The shinigami rolled his eyes, a trick he learned from a previous human. Ryuk had done something stupid and while chasing after him he dropped his note. He had to go to the owner, which was sadly a young boy. Near. He had hoped that someone OLDER would pick it up or at least someone with the emotional range of a human.

But here he was, somewhat blunt, silently insane and horribly annoying in his own young way. Near. The child stepped into the elevator. His small hands nearly covered by the oversized white shirt that he wore. He felt the metal walls of the elevator as it went to the floor he silently and joyously thought of nearly every moment of the day. The floor where Lawliet was.

He twittled and played his hair in-between his fingers and stared blankly into the empty space before him as the elevator arrived to Lawliet's floor. He walked down the hall, enjoying the wallpaper and walls. It seemed that near death, everything was interesting. He approached his 'pet's door and pushed it open. Lawliet stopped his hand right in front of his mouth with the boy walked in. The sweet that he held popped into his mouth half a second later. It was just Near.

He walked towards to bed, admiring Lawliet every step of the way. He looked so nice and calm sitting there.

"Lawliet." Near whispered.

"Yes Near?" Lawliet responded normally, popping another sweet into his mouth absent mindedly as he finished up another case with little interest in it to begin with.

"Would you like to play with me?"

"…" Lawliet thought about it for a moment. "What type of game?" His eyes narrowed. He really didn't want a game like that again.

"I wanted to make a castle…."

"…alright." Lawliet clicked out of his cases and smiled, getting up and holding his bowl of candies close to him. Three guards ran back to their positions after doing lord knows what.

The two got on the elevator, neither even daring to take a glance at the other. The end approaching fast sadly. Near wanted to talk but he couldn't find the words, but there was something he HAD to say. He knew it. The elevator dinged loudly when they reached the floor to Near's room. A large amount of blocks sat in the middle of the floor.

"Okay…" was all Near could say before he walked out to the middle of the floor, thoughtfully.

Lawliet followed, sitting on the floor next to him. Still not looking at each other as Near placed blocks down. Lawliet followed him, stacking them up until Near put them down in a different fashion until Lawliet spoke.

"Why?" He whispered.

"Can't you feel it?"

"…What?"

"You'll be returned to the Light soon…" Near sighed as he put the final block in place, standing on his tip toes in order to reach it. It was officially much taller then him. Coming up to Lawliet's upper chest.

"I'm sorry…you're going to die soon am I right?" Lawliet knew the answer. This child was about to die…it was depressing but deep inside Lawliet could feel part of him cheer. He never truly liked Near, he was just a child he saved from his brother's foolish decisions.

"Go where you like just please return to this room by the end of this hour." Near whispered as he pulled out a box of toys looked liked like people and began placing them on the 'walls' of the 'towers'. Lawliet looked over to his laptop; the clock said it was 5:20. Forty minutes to do as he liked… He left to go get more sweets. Near got an extra fluffy pillow and carefully stood on it to put a few special pieces on it.

A black haired queen standing at the front castles gate, Near put a small lollypop next to her. A blonde male beach doll next to the queen and a black haired king standing outside the multicolored castle with an orange haired princess and a red headed knight standing next to him.

'All perfect…' Near whispered, until he realized he was putting himself in-between the blonde doll and the queen. He got a small dart gun from the toy box and shot himself off, not hurting the castle in doing so. The clock read 5:55.

"I don't belong here….sorry." He whispered to a staring Lawliet who stood in the doorway, holding more candy.

Beyond smiled as they FINALLY got moving. Light smiled as Mail helped him learn how to hold a sniper rifle carefully. Mail had showed it to him and Light almost pissed his pants. He and guns never got along well together. They'd either go off without being touched or give him a fucking heart attack, or he'd end up throwing them as far away as humanly possible, making them go off and nearly kill him anyway.

Light smiled and took aim at Beyond playfully. Making a shooting noise and acting as though he had killed Beyond, who played along as acted dead.

"Hey guys SHI-"Mello accidently banged into Light in the least possible of ways. Light fell over awkwardly, the gun going off and the bullet tearing through where the flesh and skin and HEAD of Beyond Birthday had been just a millisecond before.

"Ummm….sorry." Mello whispered, wide eyed.

"Thank god I'm a horrible shot…" Light whispered relieved. The last of Beyond's companions entered the bus that they had for the occasion. The sniper bullet lodged safely in the seat so no sniper holes could be seen by any bystanders that would point them out. They would sneak to the build where Near was hiding L, which happened to be the previously abandoned building that L had built on a different trip to Japan, hunting down a DIFFERENT serial killer.

The bus moved slowly, Mail playing his game in silence. Light looking at the sniper rifle that nearly ended his lover's life, careful not to point it at anyone. Beyond wondering whether or not to really stay true to his promise to Light and Mello nomming happily on a piece of extensive chocolate that Beyond had gotten him to keep him quiet.

It had seemed like hours, it was only a few minutes and they were in front of where the genius child held L captive.

They all looked up as A, posing as a bus driver whispered. We have arrived. There was no sound, but there was joy inside. They were all happy they found Lawliet…the problem was getting him out.

Ahhhhhhhh…..Its sooo close….
