There are Two Kinds of Cops
The trip back the hotel was very quiet. L and Light sat in the backseat of a taxi, neither saying anything. They didn't have to speak though, for their connected hands also conveyed their thoughts to each other. For the remaining time they had together they wanted to be as close as possible. They passed by people. People who were unimportant. People, to them, who had no faces.
"Light?" L said his name tenderly.
Light squeezed his hand in response.
"Do you hate me?"
Light looked at L as if he hand grown a third eye in the middle of his forehead. He said, "I could never do that!"
"Oh."
"Why do you ask?"
"Because I do."
"You're just doing your job."
L frowned, "It was never about my job."
"So why do you do it now?"
"In your case, pride." L confessed.
"I understand." Light nodded his head, recognizing the emotion as one he used to have.
"Pride is a sin."
"So it is." Light agreed.
"I'm going to go to hell."
Before Light had a chance to respond the taxi came to a halt outside the Park Hyatt Washington hotel. They paid the man and got out. Parked out in front of the hotel were several police cars. Light grasped L's hand even tighter.
"They're not here for you," The older man reassured him, "It's strange though, the police brought Mello, Matt, and Near home hours ago. Why would they still be here?"
"Let's find out." Light said, leading the way into the air-conditioned building. There was a few police officers scattered around in the lobby. They were busy talking with people so Light and L just took the elevator.
When they got to their floor they saw even more police officers. They were stopped by one of them.
"Do you have a room here?" The man asked. He had a mean look to him, and it appeared he hadn't shaved for days.
"Yes, Presidential Suite room number 20." Light said confidently.
"20 you say?" The man flipped through his notepad. "You two better come with me."
"What's this about?" L inquired.
"Just follow me."
They followed the man to their room, he opened the door and they stepped inside. Inside there were police officers everywhere. Light froze up for a moment, recalling he had hid his Death Note in the room. They didn't appear to be searching the place though, so he relaxed.
"L!" L turned just in time to receive a hug from Mello. The blond seemed distraught. He kept spouting nonsense. Matt was close behind him, the redhead looked pale, almost as if he were sick.
"What's going on?"
Mello took a step back, "It's all my fault, I was in charge."
"Mello?"
"It's Near, he's missing!"
"Missing?" Both Light and L asked.
"Start from the beginning." L instructed them.
"After we got your phone call we wanted to throw Light a welcome home party. Matt was cleaning the place up and I was ordering room service. Near wanted to help so I asked him to be a look out for you guys, that way we could jump out and surprise you. He was to wait outside the room. I went to check on him a little while later and he wasn't there. Matt and I searched for him but…"
"We got worried so we began asking people if they had seen him," Matt continued. "Someone must have called the police because the next thing we knew they were here."
Light suddenly left the room. Before L followed he patted Mello on the head, "None of this is your fault."
"Light, where are you going?" L chased after him.
Light walked right up to the door of Misa's suite. L was at his heels. "You don't think…?"
"I do." With that Light opened the door, for it was unlocked, and stepped into the room. The lights were on but no one was there. The TV was on, paused on a picture of last night's newscast. The bed was neatly made, not a pillow out of place. On the wall, in dark red, was Light's name.
L walked up to it, worried that the message was written in Near's blood. He got up close to it and sighed in relief, "It's just lipstick."
"Shit!" Light swore. "Still, she must have taken him."
"Does she have the eyes?"
"Most likely." Light ran a hand through his hair.
"We should have the police check the cameras for her." L said, walking out of the room to go have that done.

"It shows her walking out of the hotel, she has a suitcase, and that's it."
"Rewind the tape to before she leaves her room." L instructed the police officer.
They did so. On the screen it showed Near out in the hall, waiting for Light and L to come back. A few minutes later Misa came up to him. It appears she asks him a question because he points in a direction. Then it showed Misa grabbing Near and placing a cloth over his mouth. Well there was their proof.
"She must have used chloroform." The police officer started the obvious. "But what happened to the boy afterwards? We just searched her room and he wasn't there."
"It means she put Near in the suitcase and rolled him out of the building with no one being the wiser." L said, irritated at the lack of competence the man he was working with possessed.
Suddenly the door to their room burst open. Standing in the doorway was Damir, he looked like he had been dressed for a business meeting.
"What are you doing here?" Light asked him.
"I heard about Near and I came to help."
"Aren't you suppose to be running the country?" Light asked, then shook his head, "Never mind, glad to have you on board."
"Do you think you can get an alert out on Misa Amane? I don't want her to know we're on her trail so she'll panic, but I want to be alerted if anyone sees her." L directed his question at Damir, who was more capable than the police.
"Consider it done." Damir said, pulling out his cell phone.
It was only a matter of time now.

"Misa, why that's the 15th person whose name you've written down." Ryuk paused. "Isn't that the Death Note Light had with him?"
"It is." The blond said smugly. "I found it in his room while the two kids were looking for their friend, and while you were stuffing your face with apples from the kitchen. I though about killing them, but then again I needed them for my plan to work. I'll kill them once I have Light."
"You have a plan?"
Misa shut the Death Note, "Of course I do. I wanted Light to hear that this boy is missing. That's why I called the police myself. I'll make L suffer for getting close to my Light!"
"So what are you going to do to the boy?" Ryuk asked, looking over to an unconscious Near. His arms and legs were tied together and he was laid out on the bed. There was a white pillow case covering his head, and underneath it he was gagged.
"You'll see." Misa said, turning her head to look out the window.
"Will you at least tell me why we hijacked a train?"
-0-0-0-
"Found her." Damir announced.
"Is Near with her?" Mello asked, jumping up from his spot on the couch.
"I don't know about that, but she was located on the D.C Express, a train that was heading to Florida. She got on board as a normal passenger. There are multiple accounts of people dieing since she got on board. People riding the train called the police, that's how we found her." Damir had long since cleared the room out of any cops, and now he asked L and Light to step out of the room with him for a moment.
"If you have something to say you can say it in front of us!"
"Mello…"
"Is it about Near? Is he okay?"
"No, it's not about him." Damir said gently.
"Actually Damir, there is something I wanted to tell you." L stood up, "Misa Amane is a second Kira. She was under suspicion before but we never had evidence to convict her."
"So the horrors of Kira continue." Damir clenched his fist, this was what he had feared. "We must stop her."
"We will."
"Let's try to catch up to the train and stop it." Damir said.
"Good idea. We'll go with you." Light said, heading towards the door.
"Is it such a good idea with you recently out of the hospital?"
"I'm going." Light insisted.
"You two stay here." L told Matt and Mello, "I'm sure you want to come too but I would worry less knowing you are here."
"Okay."
"Fine."
"Let's go then." Damir said, heading for the door. He looked over at Mello, "Don't worry, we'll get your brother back."
"Brother?" Mello choked on the word. "We're not brothers."
"Really?" Damir tilted his head to the side. "Odd, I always got that impression from you two, and the way he talked about you sounded like the admiration of a little brother."
Mello looked away, frustrated, "Bring him back."
"We will." All three said at once.
"Hey L," Matt walked over to the older man, and handed him his lighter, "For luck."
"Thank you." L accepted the item then patted Matt on the head.
With that they were gone. After the door was shut Mello slumped down on the couch. He covered his eyes with one of his hands.
"Don't worry, if anyone can save Near it's them."
Mello sighed, "You tell me not to worry but that's all I can do."
"I know, same here." Matt laughed, "My hands are shaking so much from anxiety that there's no way I could play a video game to distract myself. I mean, that girl is the second Kira, and now Near is with her."
"I hate waiting…"
Matt sat down beside the blond, "Maybe we could distract each other…?"
"Matt?" Mello dropped his hand to stare at the other.
The redhead blushed, "It was just a thought."
"Well?" Mello asked, "What are you waiting for?"
-0-0-0-
"There's something I have to do, but I encourage you two to try and catch up with the train by car." Damir said once they got outside the hotel.
"How do you suppose we do that?" L asked.
Damir pointed at the only remaining cop car, "I had them leave this. You're allowed to go over the speed limit, and if you're stopped there is a legal document saying I gave you permission to in the glove box."
"This is nice and all, but think it will catch up to a train?" Light asked.
"Only one way to find out." L said, taking the keys from Damir.
"Now that I think about it, I've never seen you drive a car before, do you know how to?" Light asked L.
"Yes."
"Is there a reason you never do?"
"Watari wont let me." L confessed.
"Watari never lets you?"
"…"
"Give me the keys." Light held out his hands and L reluctantly gave them to him.

"I have it so that the conductor will die after seeing us to our destination." Misa was explaining to Ryuk.
"Clever."
"Yup, and everyone else on the train is dead now." She said this proudly. "It was an unfortunate day to ride a passenger train for them."
"Ngh…"
"Oh, it looks like the boys is waking up!" Misa walked over to the bed. She poked Near in the side and got no reaction. "It'll be any minute now."

Matt and Mello had begun kissing wildly but very soon after Mello pulled away.
"Not helping?" Matt asked, disappointed.
"Sorry…" Mello's head was on the arm of the couch, his legs were under Matt who at some point had crawled on top of him.
"Don't apologize, maybe I just need to try something else…" Matt said before taking off his goggles and tossing them onto the floor.
"Like what?" Mello asked, his curiosity growing.
Matt got up for a moment and returned with a police hat on his head, "I saw one of the cops leave it behind, I didn't say anything because I thought it would be fun to own one."
"You look really sexy." Mello commented.
Matt blushed at the compliment, then from his pocket he pulled out Mello's handcuffs. He had found them, and L had returned the key to him earlier.
Mello's eyebrows shot up into his hairline.
"Want to play cops and robbers?" Matt asked him, his blush growing.
"Like we did when we were kids?"
Matt nodded his head, "Well sort of, but this game would be a little different. In this version the robber doesn't have to be the cop after getting caught."
Mello sat up, a playful gleam in his eyes, "So what does happen if the robber gets caught?"
"What happens to all criminals." Matt said solemnly, then with a last minute smirk, "They'll get punished."
"Okay I'm game, but first let me get into character." Mello got up and headed to where he left his clothes, then turned to Matt and smiled, "Hey I think Near bought squirt guns we could use!"

"Light slow down!" L said from his position in the passenger's seat.
"But we have to hurry."
"I know that, but what good to Near are we if we're dead?"
"But-"
"Light! You're going 80 in a 50 zone."
Light let off the gas and they slowed down considerably, "Sorry."
"And you didn't want me to drive." L huffed.
"I said I was sorry." Light quickly glanced over at L. He balked at L, "Hey, you need to wear your seatbelt, and sit normally!"
"I wouldn't need a seatbelt if Light's driving was better."
"It's not my fault, all these Americans drive like mad men." Light said, satisfied after he heard the click of L's seatbelt, though the man was still sitting on his feet. "I mean did you see that old lady earlier?"
"I know, I know, she passed you then flipped you off…" L looked out the window.
"I know, and we're in a cop car too!"
"Light!"
"What is it?"
"I see the train tracks."
"That's good, at least we're heading in the right direction."
"Hang in there Near," L mumbled to the glass

Near woke up to loud noises. He didn't know where he was, and he was having a hard time recalling the last thing he did. Whenever he tried to remember he would get a pain in his frontal lobe. His mouth tasted funny but he wasn't sure why. There seemed to be some type of cloth over his head. He tried to say something but found it impossible because of a piece of cloth in his mouth. He heard the voice of a female.
"Is he awake yet?" Once again Misa poked Near in the side.
He didn't move. He remembered now! A blond girl had put him to sleep… how long ago had it been?
"Oh poo, I guess not. Ryuk, tell me if he wakes up, I'm going to go have a drink."
Near heard a door open and shut. He waited, not moving, but didn't hear a single sound. He craved fresh air, and so, with some difficulty, he wiggled the pillowcase off of his head. His white curls were pressed against his head, and his eyes burned from the sudden light. When it was safe to open them again he looked about the room. He couldn't see anyone else in there. He was on a bed that was connected to the wall. It looked like one that belonged on a train. Near gasped. Maybe he was on a train! But if that were the case… then what was going to become of him?
Ryuk looked at Near with slight pity. The boy seemed frightened, his wide eyes scanning the area. He sort of reminded Ryuk of when he first met Light. That sure was a long time ago.
Ryuk laughed, he felt bad for the boy, but he was too entertained to do anything about it. Though he wasn't about to go get Misa, she annoyed him still, even when she was up to no good. He could wait.

"Freeze!" Matt shouted, he had his water gun pointed at Mello. Mello had the hood of his leather jacket up. He halted for a moment, and as Matt took another step forward he sprinted around the couch. Matt gave chase. They ran around the couch several times. Mello's hood had fallen down at some point, his blond hair was now free to go every which way.
Matt, giving the situation some thought, jumped onto the couch and over the back. Mello had to put on his breaks so he would run into him. Matt smirked at him, "Busted."
"Heh," Mello laughed, he pulled out his own squirt gun and squirted Matt in the eyes. Matt took a moment to rub the water away, and Mello took that moment to run off.
There was really no place to run inside the room, even though it was big, so Mello ran to the door. He was out the door before Matt could grab him.
Mello gave a backwards glance at him, "Catch me if you can, copper!"
"I'll make you pay for this!" Matt called after him. He was embarrassed to have people see him dressed how he was.
Mello took the elevator, and luckily for him the doors shut before Matt could get there. Matt swore and took the stairs. Matt got to the lobby and raced over to the elevator. It opened up but Mello wasn't there. He looked around confused. Where had he gone?
Suddenly Matt felt water hit him in the back of his head. He turned around to see Mello waving at him.
"How did you get here before me?" Matt asked him.
Mello placed a finger over his lips, "Robber's secret."
With that the chase was back on. They ran around the lobby until they got yelled at. Mello ran to the stairs, which were hardly ever taken, but instead of going up he went down. Matt was in hot pursuit.
The stairs opened up to the basement of the hotel. There were pipes everywhere. The room was really muggy, but Mello couldn't turn back now, and so he ran to find a hiding place. Matt got off the stairs and looked around.
"Come out come out wherever you are!" Matt yelled, knowing Mello wouldn't, he began searching. Matt looked in a lot of places, but there were so many nooks and crannies… That's when he got a great idea. He pulled out his squirt gun and began firing it around. It would hit some of the pipes and steam would erupt. He kept this up and one of the times he did it he heard Mello swear. Bingo.
"I found you!" Matt said, cornering Mello between one of the water heaters and a wall.
Mello's eyes darted back and forth, looking for a way out.
Matt grabbed Mello before he had a chance to run again. He turned him around so that the blond was facing the wall, and read him his rights. With that he slapped the handcuffs onto Mello's wrists.
"So you caught me." Mello glanced back at Matt, "So now what?"
"I take you to prison." Matt turned Mello around. He grabbed Mello's legs and side, and tossed him over his shoulder.
"Matt!" Mello began to squirm.
"That's Officer Matt to you." Matt said as he headed towards the stairs. Mello was unable to use his hands, and so kept bouncing against Matt.
"Officer Matt," Mello spat out, "This feels weird."
"I don't care how a criminal feels." Matt said as he started up the stairs. "And because you gave me such a terrible time with that chase we're going the whole way up the stairs."
The stairs made the ride bouncier, and Mello more uncomfortable. He began to make sounds of displeasure.
"Matt!" Mello wined. He was ignored so he tried again, "Officer Matt."
"Yes?" Matt asked, "Would you like me to make it less bouncy for you?"
"Please,"
"Okay, but you asked for it." Matt moved the hand that wasn't holding Mello's legs to grab Mello's leather clad ass.
Mello made a sound before sputtering, "This is sexual harassment!"
"Your body says the contrary."
Mello blushed. Matt acting all dominate was really turning him on…
Matt chuckled at the silence he got from Mello, this was too much fun!

Near had tried multiple attempts to free himself from his bindings but it was impossible. Now he just sat there, waiting for the inevitable to happen. He formulated plans in his mind for different scenarios, but that was really all he could do. It was about an hour after first waking that the woman returned. He recognized her from Japanese pop culture, Misa Amane. He hadn't recognized her before, but now that he got a better look at her, there was no doubt that it was her.
"Oh you're awake!" The girl was drunk. She stumbled over to him, "You must be wondering why you're here."
Misa was slightly miffed that he didn't reply, she already forgot she gagged him, "I need you to get to Light, and so I can finally kill L."
Near's eyes grew wide at that. L was in danger?

Matt tossed Mello onto the bed, satisfied that he had caught him. He pulled out his squirt gun and went to refill it. Mello laid on the bed, excited yet nervous for he didn't hear the sound of running water. Matt returned with the handcuff key in hand. He hopped onto the bed and unlocked one of the cuffs.
"You're letting me go?" Mello asked, a little disappointed.
"Not a chance." Matt said, pushing Mello more towards the front of the bed. He took the one end of the handcuffs and looped it around one of the bars of the headboard. It was unusual to see such a headboard design in a hotel, but then again maybe it wasn't.
Mello tried to get up but only managed to get to his knees, "Matt?"
"Didn't I tell you," Matt said, forcing Mello's head down, "That it's Officer Matt to you?"
Mello, with his arms resting on the pillows, looked over his shoulder to see what Matt was up to.
Matt saw him looking and playfully flicked him on the nose. With that he reached around Mello to the straps of his leather pants. Skillfully with one hand he undid them. Mello thought he was going to reach inside but instead he pulled his hand away. Matt instead grabbed the top of Mello's pants and pulled them down.
Matt whistled, "No underwear?"
"I never wear underwear when I wear leather pants."
"But you usually wear leather… oh." Matt blushed, he was glad Mello couldn't see him. It would have ruined his character's image.
Matt leaned over Mello and in his ear whispered, "That sounds very naughty, maybe I should spank you."
"Matt…" Mello exhaled.
Matt pulled back his hand and went through with his threat, "Officer Matt."
When Mello didn't say anything Matt realized he needed to explain it better, so he smacked Mello again and this time said, "I want you to say it."
"Officer Matt." Mello mumbled.
SMACK!
"Louder." Matt demanded.
"Officer Matt!" Mello yelled.
Matt smirked, Mello was so cute! "That's better."

Misa moved Near to the dining cart. She finally removed the gag, though he refused to talk to her, which drover her insane. The booze also seemed to have finally set in her system.
"Do yuh think you're too goo to tak to meh you brat?" Misa slapped Near across the face. "Ugh!"
Misa walked over to the liquor cabinet, "I know what'll make yeh talk!"
She pulled out some booze and walked back over to Near who was seated at one of the dining tables. She opened the bottle up and snatched Near's face. He tried to get away from her, but he was still tied up.
"Stop." He cried out.
"Too late now!" The drunken Misa began to force the brown liquid down the minor's throat. She made sure none went to waste.
Ryuk watched for a moment then asked her, "You didn't want to kill him, right?"
"Nooooo, why?"
"You're going to with the way you're going." Ryuk pointed out, "The kid could get alcohol poisoning."
Misa looked over at the boy's already flushed face, "Damn it Ryu, ruin all meh fun.

"Ah! What is that?" Mello tried to turn around but Matt wouldn't allow him.
Matt had very carefully pushed the tip of his squirt gun into Mello's anus. The blond fidgeted, trying to get comfortable. Mello finally caught on to the item that was penetrating him, "So you're going to spray my insides with water?"
Mello laughed.
"This is no normal water," Matt informed him. The laughter died in Mello's throat.
"Then what is it?"
Matt pulled the little purple trigger, "You'll find out."
Matt kept pulling the trigger, slowly filling Mello up. Mello didn't know what he was expecting but suddenly caught on when his rectum began to feel on fire. Matt pulled back the gun and explained, "We need to do a cavity search, so I've given you some enema to clear the way."
"!" Mello tried to pull away from the bed, "I have to get to the bathroom!"
"I agree." Matt undid Mello's handcuffs, picked him up bridal style, and dropped him off at the bathroom door. "You have one minute."
-0-0-0-
The room was spinning.
Near tried to lift his head but that made him feel sick so he placed it back down on the table top. He felt on the verge of tears, but that could have been the alcohol's doing. Misa had gone off somewhere and left him. He felt so sick…
"I can't think straight…" Near tried saying, but to anyone else it would have sounded like gibberish. "Isn't someone going to save me?"
-0-0-0-
Matt and Mello were already back on the bed. Matt had gone through with his "cavity search", stripping Mello of all his clothes. The blond was handcuffed again, but no longer to the bed. Now he laid on his back, watching Matt, feeling very aroused.
"No stolen item in your clothing, guess that means I will have to search deeper." Matt determined. With silent permission he inserted a finger into Mello, who in turn shivered. He very carefully wiggled his finger. He rummaged around for a moment, then inserted another finger. He pushed in farther, making Mello jump. Panicked, he looked up to see if Mello was in pain, but instead was reassured by the other's placid expression. Eventually he pulled out. "Nope, no stolen item there."
Mello laughed because of the fact Matt had continued playing the game up until this point, "Maybe I swallowed it. Or maybe I hid it while running."
"Which is it?"
Mello said nothing.
"I guess that means I'll have to force it out of you." Matt slowly ran his tongue over his lips.
Mello followed Matt's gaze to his growing erection, "Normally you wouldn't even consider this… Maybe it's because you're Officer Matt."
At those words Matt looked dejected, "It's just a hat."
Mello sat up, grabbed the hat, and tossed it onto the floor, "I know."
Matt stared at him with his puppy dog eyes. Mello smiled at him, "As sexy as this is, for our first time actually doing anything, how about we be ourselves?"
"Sounds good to me." Matt said, taking off the handcuffs and tossing them beside the hat. He then leaned in, kissing Mello. Mello wrapped his arms around Matt's neck and pulled him down on top of him.
"Oof."
"You're so cute." Mello cooed.
"Hey now, I'm still leading this." Matt said, pulling back to stare down at Mello.
"Oh?"
Matt leaned in, placing butterfly kisses all over Mello's chest.
"I tickles!" Mello said before pulling Matt into a kiss, pulling his head down to deepen it.
The redhead pulled away, wiping off a strand of saliva from his mouth. Without hesitating he moved down towards Mello's feet and took a hold of Mello's erection. He examined it with interest.
"Are you going to stare at it all day or-AH!" Mello gasped as Matt took the head into his mouth. The sensation was wonderfully indescribable. The warmth sent a tingle up his spine, making his toes curl into the sheets.
Matt kept moving up and down the shaft, sending Mello writhing. He pulled his mouth away, and began to assault it with just his tongue instead.
"Ngh!" Mello tried to sit up, but only ended up falling down again, "Matt-"
Matt looked up with just his eyes, "Hm?"
"You're way too good at this… how?"
Matt grinned, his tongue flickering out for one quick lick, "I've practiced."
"What?" Mello growled, angry at the thought that Matt might have done this with other guys.
"Not on people, silly," Matt said, taking all of Mello back into his mouth.
It didn't take much longer before Mello was sent over the edge. Mello's orgasm made him arch his back off the bed. Matt had been prepared for the explosion of semen and was able to swallow it all without problem. After Mello relaxed he removed his mouth.
"Matt…" Mello mumbled, reaching out to the other. Matt scooted up and laid down beside him. He wrapped the other boy in an embrace, grabbing the edge of the blanket and covering Mello up more.
"Not fair, why am I the only one who got naked?" Mello pouted.
Matt kissed the nape of his neck, "Next time."
"I can handle more now." Mello insisted, turning to look into Matt's eyes.
"Sure you can."
"Can too…" Mello said, already slipping into a light slumber. Matt placed a kiss on Mello's nose. It didn't take long and Mello was out like a light.
Matt was smiling like an idiot. He couldn't believe he had just done that! With Mello! It felt… nice though, and he was looking forward to experiencing other things with him. Matt frowned. Even through all his happiness he couldn't escape his worry for Near. He knew Mello was worried too, that's why he had offered to distract him, because he couldn't sit back and watch Mello fret like that. However he felt so helpless… and even though he felt exhausted, there was no way he could sleep until he heard word of Near.

"Hey, there it is." L pointed at the D.C Express in the distance. It was painted black and seemed old fashioned. It must have been real popular in the olden days, and now it was more of a tourist attraction than a train.
Light gave the train a good look over, "It's not moving!"
To be continued…
Author's Note- There are two kinds of cops, the dumb kind, and the sexy Matt kind. Okay so I hope you all liked this. Our poor Near has been kidnapped by that bitch Misa! That part wasn't the part I hoped you all liked. xD Anyways… yeah, I hope it wasn't lame. Consider this my Christmas gift to all of you. Happy Christmas, and I'll post the next chapter before the New Year! :D
