Para Bellum: 'prepare for war'

Light, just after L's stunt with Lind L Taylor.

Thanks for all the new reviews, alerts, favourites, etc, and thanks, as always, to Annie, who takes care of my Latin issues.

... Entry Twenty One – February 6th, 2009 ...

... Para Bellum ...

The stunt did not anger me as much as it entertained me. I was already firmly of the opinion that I was doing the right thing, and as far as I was concerned, L did not have a hope of catching me. Sure, he may know the region in which I resided, but there were hundreds of people living here. Plus I had that one huge advantage.

The Death Note. For who would ever suspect a notebook of killing people? Especially one as well hidden as this one. Still, I would have to be careful, since my use of the police database, and the obviousness of my ability to do so, was sure to draw attention to the police force, and by extension, their families. I knew that L was not stupid, he had just proved that. Annoyingly enough. I would have to devise a way to know if anyone had been in my room, one that was not glaringly obvious.

Honestly? I was not scared of being caught in the slightest. L did not have anything on me, and even if he did, I would make it so there was no proof at all. As long as I kept to the level of thought and planning I was currently operating at, I would kill him before he confirmed that I was in fact Kira. I knew I would have to get close to him to do this however...which would mean drawing him here. Hopefully that was already taken care of, since he had told me he knew I was here. And if he didn't come...I'd have to leave another hint. A message or two. Something to wind him up, frustrate him. It would not be difficult.

And of course, I'm not the sort of person to back down from a challenge.

Evil Light writing is fun :D

I still love L more though.
