Elle

He... nodded? I'm sure of it. So this is L... this is my father! I stare at him. I had guessed that he was probably quite similar to me, but not this similar! He looks like an older male version of me! I smile at him, and he smiles back. Yep, he definitely looks like me. It's funny really. All this time and effort I've spent trying to find out who he is so we can have a meeting, and then I just go and bump into him on the street. It's annoying though, because as Light and Sayu are here I can't talk to him properly. Damn. I look at Light. He's staring at Hideki, I mean L, strangely. Looks like he's noticed we're both acting oddly. Sayu nudges me.

"Elle, we've got to go! Our bus leaves in a couple of minutes!" I look at her watch. AGH! It leaves in 3 minutes! I look at L again. Why did we have to meet eachother at such an inconvenient time!

"Bye Light! Bye Hideki!" Sayu says. I smile.

"Bye," dad, I add silently to the end.

"See you two later" says Light.

"It was nice to meet you, Sayu, Elle." Says L quietly. I agree totally. It was nice to meet you.

"Come on Elle, let's go." I take one last look at my father, and leave.

Light

Those two were acting really strangely. Well, from what I know of them both they aren't exactly normal anyway, but they still seemed to be acting oddly even for them. Now that I think about it, they're both quite similar. And Ryuga is being really quiet now.

"Hey Ryuga, what's up? You're being very quiet!" He blinks.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking. Anyway, could I ask you a favour? When there's nobody around that knows me as Hideki Ryuga, could you call me Ryuzaki please?" OK, that's a slightly strange request. But I'm sure L has his reasons.

"Alright. Anyway Ryuzaki, Elle looked a lot like you."

"I noticed. Odd, isn't it?" I nod, then ask something which had been bugging me ever since I noticed the similarities between them.

"Do you think she's related to you?" Ryuzaki shakes his head. Not that I'd expected him to say yes. Even if they are related, he wouldn't tell the person he believes is Kira that he has family.

"I don't have any family, so she can't be related to me." He explains. I grin.

"I bet you do. You just don't want to tell me because I'm Kira." He looks up.

"Is that a confession, Light?" I laugh.

"Of course not. But I can see you're certain that I'm Kira, so you're hardly going to tell me anything that could give me an advantage over you." I smile. "If you want a confession you're going to have to try a lot harder, because I won't confess to anything I didn't do."

"I don't expect you to. In fact, although I am 83% certain you are Kira, I am also 99.9% sure you will never confess." I shrug.

"Fair enough."

Elle

"Hey, Elle, what's up? You seem really quiet!" Yes, Sayu, I am being quiet. But there's a reason, which I unfortunately can't tell you.

"Just thinking," I say. Which is true. This sounds mean, but I wish Sayu and Light hadn't been there so I could have had a proper conversation. But then again, if they hadn't been there I probably wouldn't have noticed L. But he might have noticed me. A sudden thought hits me. L was with Light. Does that mean he suspects him of being Kira too?

"Your brother is interested in the Kira case, isn't he?" I ask Sayu casually. She nods.

"He keeps working on it in his room. At least, that's what he says he's doing. Now that I think about it, I've got no idea what he actually does up there! He could be studying, he could be trying to find out who Kira is, or he could just be lazing about! I don't actually know!" I nod. So Light spends a lot of time in his room, and Sayu doesn't know what he does up there. That means he could be doing whatever he does to kill these criminals. Sayu scowls.

"He keeps locking his door recently. I bet he's keeping some kind of secret from us."

Now that I think about it, he probably is.
