L was just typing away on his laptop, and is still worried about Light. He started fidgeting with his tail.
"Matsuda? Is there anyone in the front?"
Matsuda checked the security cameras, "Nothing."
"..."
"I'm sure that Light is fine.." Matsuda said, trying to comfort L, "It's just Misa.."
Thirty minutes passed.
An hour passed.
Everyone stayed there to make sure Light is okay.
Another two hours passed..
"That's it, I'm looking for Light." L said as he got up from his seat and started to walk toward the door.
That's when the door opened. Everyones jaws dropped in horror.
"Oh my god!"
There stood Light.
Light carefully walked through the door, all beat and battered. His hair messed up, he has a black eye. He leaned against the wall for support..
His clothes are torn..
"LIGHT!" L ran across the room just in time to catch Light as he fell to the floor, passed out, "WATARI! Get the doctor- take him to the hospital!" L said, sobbing. That was when L found the note.
L,
See what happens when you act selfish? Think about yourself before others?
I simply can't wait to see you
~X
Oh my god.
L was standing there and numbly looked at the wall in the hallway of the hospital. Just then, he looked up and saw Soichiro, pissed as he charged through the hallway, and headed straight toward L.
"You!" he spat at L. L looked at Soichiro in shock.
"You did this! YOU! You broke that promise! You little disgusting freaky looking, selfish son of a bitch. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! Yours!" he punched L in the jaw. L's head snapped to the side and Watari quickly restrained Soichiro.
All your fault!
Yours!
"Mr. Yagami! You will restrain yourself or I will be forced to use certain measures when protecting my ward," Watari said with venom in his voice, "you also forgot who you are dealing with."
Soichiro blinked and look at L, and immediately felt regret. L caressed his injured jaw as lip bled and swelled. L didn't look up directly at Soichiro, his bangs covered his eyes as he spoke..
"I apologize..but.. I must go now.. Excuse me." L quickly shoved past everyone and ran to the restroom, and ignored the calls of his alias.
L was standing there in the restroom of the hospital. He stared at himself in the mirror.
"I could have protected him.. Why.." He asked himself. L yanked at his hair as he beat himself up about it.
"I knew it! Why didn't I stop him.." L whispered to himself. He turned around and put his back against the wall for support. He started to slide downwards and into his usual sitting position and started to cry softly.
He was so closed into his thoughts that he didn't notice Watari. Watari's heart clenched at the sight of L in so much pain. He crouched right next to him and gave wrapped his hands around L.
"It is not your fault."
L's sobs got louder, "Y-Yes it is! Watari, I could have-"
"And what would you have done?"
"P-Prevented this. Oh god, Light.."
"You did all you could. Lawliet," Watari started to rub L's back in soothing circles as L cried into his shirt, "Even Light would say the same. Who would've thought that a small trip to the bank with Misa-"
"Misa.. Miss Amane, she caused this." L got up and looked at Watari, "Find Miss Amane quickly. I need to question her… funny how she isn't here for her Light," L said as he walked out the door and past a guilty looking Soichiro and into Light's room.
Light was awake.
"Light?" Light looked up from his book and looked at L. L took a good look at Light and saw the vacant look in his eyes. L walked to the right side of Light's hospital bed and looked at Light. Light had bruises on his face and some cuts.
"Light.." L murmered, "Who did this to you?"
"X.. and Misa.."
"Misa.. I knew it.." L said as he stared through Light, "I'm going to make her life hell.. and murder X myself.."
"L I'm okay-"
"Did he.." L didn't finish his sentence, but didn't need to.
"No, he didn't rape me."
"What did Misa do?"
"As soon as we left headquarters, she started chatting about work and such…"
"Yeah! So Misa Misa has so much to do! That's why I haven't been around."
"That's okay, Misa." Light said. He started to zone out.
It's getting dark, Light thought
Misa looked around and Light didn't notice. She checked where they were and saw a man in a hoodie walking toward them.
Misa stopped and dropped her purse, everything fell out.
"Oh no! Damn it!"
Light sighed, but being the gentlemen he is, he started to pick her items up.
The man stopped behind Light and Misa nodded. The man grabbed Light from behind and dragged him into a van across the street. Misa followed inside.
"Get off me!" Light screamed. Misa shoved a few napkins into his mouth to muffle his screams.
"So, we finally meet. Kira," the man whispered into Light's ear.
"Mph!"
"And I know it's you because Misa told me.. and has the eyes."
"So that means that she knows your name!" Light said, worried.
"I couldn't care less about myself," L said, and patted Light's hair to comfort him, "Did he do anything to you?"
"He just beat me up… and touched me a few times…" Light whispered.
"And Misa?" L said quietly. With a grim expression on his face.
"She just.. watched.. and nodded when X asked her a question.. you know what L?" Light said, "You were right about his eyes.."
Light shuddered at the vivid memory of very bright, purple eyes. Probably violet purple or something. Light started to cry a little.
L hugged Light, tightly, and whispered, "I am so, so sorry Light.." he brushed his fingers into Light's hair and looked at Watari, who's in the doorway.
That's it. I'm coming for him.
