Death Note- Amelia's Story

Chapter 54- Surprises

Amelia's POV


When I arrived at the cemetery, and making sure that nobody from the team was around, I headed over to a stone building that usually contains two or more coffins. It wasn't where Watari and L were buried at though, it was something else.

Anyways, going over to it I took a key from out of my pocket, a specially made key, and unlocked the door. Once inside I looked in the middle of the room to see a keypad and a hand scanner, just like Watari said there would be. So, after entering the code and scanning my hand I felt the floor go down.

"So the entire floor is an elevator?' I thought in my mind. "That's pretty cool"

After a few minutes I arrived at the underground building. There was a long tunnel ahead of me, I guess it was for someone who wasn't supposed be down here. I looked on the side to see a small T.V screen and a microphone. So, pressing the on button, I said "Hey Watari? Where am I supposed to go?" I asked.

"Oh, my apologies Ami, just go straight and when you get to the end you'll see two tunnels, just take the right one and it'll lead you to a door that your key will unlock." I heard Watari say after a few minutes.

"I suppose it wouldn't have been as easy to just go down and you're there." I thought as I went down the tunnel. After about five minutes, I believe, I made it to the two tunnels that were mentioned earlier. I took the right one, like I was supposed to, and after a minute saw the door that was also mentioned earlier. After that, I took out my key and unlocked the door. I was amazed as soon as I stepped through the door.

"It's like a a computer laboratory." I thought looked around. However, I didn't see Watari anywhere.

"Hello?" I called out. Then I heard footsteps, so looking around I saw Watari heading towards me. I smiled, "I'm glad it worked, are you alright? Were there any side effects?" I questioned. He smiled.

"Don't worry Ami, everything's fine. All we have to do is wait for L to show up and then we can start on Part 2 of your plan." He said. I nodded, "Well he should've awoken already...maybe he didn't see the cup?" I suggested before hearing the sound of someone hitting the floor.

"I'm guessing that might be him." I heard Watari say. Rolling my eyes I headed towards where the sound came from and saw L lying on the floor. I kneeling down next to him and poked him in his side, "L...are you alright?' I asked. It was a stupid question, I know.

"Ugh...where am I?" I heard him ask before rolling over. I waved at him when he looked at me, "Amelia? Are you dead?" He questioned. I shook my head.

"Nope! We're all alive." I said happily. His eyes widened and he sat up, "How is that possible?" He questioned. I stood up.

"I think that Watari and I should explain it to you, come on." I said taking his hand and leading him back to Watari. Once there I let go of his hand and sat down in a chair, "L wants to know how he's alive." I said.

Watari looked at me, "Ah, I see...I think it'll be best if you sit down now." He said pointing to a nearby chair. L walked over to it and faced us. Then we began the story of my plan. It took, I believe, over 20 minutes to explain but I believe that L got the gist of it.

"You could've been killed." L said after a few silent moments.

"See? I told you." I said to Watari. He shook his head and looked back at L, "L, Ami did all this just so that we could live..." He started.

"Yeah! I couldn't have the people I care about die especially if I could've done something to stop it." I said. "So what if I died trying. I would rather die doing that then to die knowing I didn't do anything."

L stared at me, silently "Thank you..." He said after a few moments. I nodded, "Anytime..." I said before looking at Watari, "Did Rem come by here by any chance?" I asked. He shook his head, "N-"

"I'm right here..." I heard Rem say as she entered through the wall. L looked at her, "Thank you..." He said to her before turning around. I rolled my eyes, "Now that everyone's here, we can talk about Part 2 of the plan. " I said.

"Part 2?" L said curiously. "What does it involve?" I smiled, then I explained it.

The last thing I needed to do is to convince the other team members, excluding Light, that Light is Kira. That's where the recorder and the video recording I had come into place. I was going to send them in, from an "anonymous" source, and then from this place I would watch to see what happens. Each item that I send in has proof that Light is Kira. Then, if none of that works, as a last resort I would send Rem in to clarify that Light is Kira. She has already agreed to do so. Then when all that works I'll reveal that L and Watari are alive, by video of course.

Once I finished explaining that I looked around to see that L was silent, as well as Rem, but Watari was just smirking. What was he smirking about?

"Your plan sounds like something I would do." L commented. Oh...that's why he was smirking.

"Yes, it's very interesting..." Watari commented. What was he playing at?

"He's hiding something..." I thought, I just know it.

Anyways, standing up I walked over to the exit "I will return when I need to, until then stay here. I believe that you should have everything you need here, correct?" I questioned. Watari nodded and I took my leave.


L's POV


I watched as Amelia left the underground facility that we were in. I thought about everything that has happened today. I thought that I had died, but in reality it was just temporary. Amelia had risked her life to make sure that all of ours were kept, I didn't know what to feel about that. I wanted to feel thankful because I was still alive but then again I wanted to feel angry because this went against me protecting her. It felt like I had failed my self-given task.

"L..." I heard Watari start, so I looked at him. "Amelia is your friend, you two have known each other since you were kids, she didn't mind risking her life to save yours. That's how much she cares about you."

"Hm..." I muttered looking down. "I didn't think of it in that way..."

"L? It's none of my business, but...do you perhaps hold feelings for her?" I then heard him ask. I felt my heart stop, figuratively of course. I looked up, "What?" I questioned. He smiled.

"You two were always together whether it was planned or not." He started referring to this case. "Have you ever thought about how you feel around her?"

I was quiet, "No..." I said. He looked at me silently.

"Yes..." I eventually said. I learned long ago that there's no point in lying to him, he has the uncanny ability to tell if you're lying or not.

"Have you figured it out yet?" He continued questioning. I blinked keeping silent.

"There was no point then, but now I don't know." I simply said before turning around. I didn't want to talk about this anymore, there were more important things to worry about at this moment.
