Aizawa swore as the broadcast filled the apartment

"Damn it all! now that it's public that Kira's back, this investigation will get that much more difficult!

Mogi nodded. Ide looked over at them

"We have to continue the investigation as planned. this is just a drawback. So a billion people start

worshipping Kira again, it's not like that's going to-"

"On the contrary, Mr. Ide, this does indeed put us in a tight position...."

Everyone turned to the computer, where the letter 'L' appeared on the screen.

"If supporters of Kira resume their previous activities, they could hinder the investigation by withholding

information that could be useful to us, or at least silence those who would work against Kira...This has

happened before..."

Ide rubbed the back of his neck, "Yeah...wishful thinking I guess..."

Aizawa approached the Monitor, "L, what are we going to do? This is a problem."

"We're going to resume what we've been doing or the past few days...continue to monitor your chosen target,

and send the tapes to Matsuda."

"Alright..."

" And one more thing...keep your eyes open..."

000000ooooo000000

The image on the screen disappeared, revealing the blank desktop screen with the files within.

"What do you suppose he meant by that?" Mogi asked

Aizawa shrugged, "Who knows? Let's get back to work reviewing those tapes."

Scout paced in her room, "Oh crap...this is bad, this is very bad!"

Ryuk watched her from his seat on the bed, "what's the big deal?"

"The big deal is that there's someone out there with a Death Note who's using it to kill hundreds of people!

that's NOT a good thing, even if they are criminals!"

Ryuk opened his mouth to remind her she killed people too, but decided against it.

Scout continued, "I can't believe this! Ryuk, we have to find this guy and convince him to get rid of his

Death Note!"

"How we gonna do that?"

"I-! I.....don't know..." Scout admitting, sinking onto the bed next to Ryuk, "I don't suppose you'd be nice for

once and find out for me?"

" I could..."

"But you won't" she finished.

"Nope."

"Bastard."

"Potty mouth," Ryuk said, laughing.

Scout groaned and laid back on the bed, her legs dangling over the side, "I hate my life..."

"I could take it off your hands for you."

"I don't hate it THAT much," Scout said, punching him in the side, her fist going right through him as always.

"You could go to America and track him down"

"Uh, huge flaw with that idea," how am I suppose to get there?"

"A plane's always good."

"with what money?"

"Ever heard of frequent flier miles?"

"Don't get cute Ryuk...Even if I had enough money, mom would never letme go to America, by myself, just

to find somebody I don't even know, with no hope of finding because YOU won't tell me who Kira is."

"That's easy. You're Kira. Sort of."

"NO. I'M. NOT," she said, putting emphasis behind each word.

"Well then, I guess your screwed," Ryuk said.

Scout rolled over and sighed into the sheets, "No more Apple Juice..."

"What?!"
