"Doctor. It's no use." One of the nurses told Dr. Rodriguez who kept trying to make B.B's heart start again.
"No!" She cried and kept trying. "I won't except that!" She said and kept pushing down on his chest. "Don't give up on me B.B!" She said and opened his mouth and started to give him the kiss of life.
The hospital staff kept staring at her, watching her work on a corpse. With no hope in finding a heartbeat.
"It's no use doctor." Said a nurse. "He's gone."
She stopped moving her hands and sat up. "I don't understand." She whispered. "You tell me that he was going to be fine! How did fine turn into this?!" She yelled. "Who were the last people in here?" She said and stood up. "I want to know everything!"
They nodded and left the room. Dr. Rodriguez started to turn off the machines. What was she going to do? He had no family or friends. She looked down at B.B. He slowly started to turn more pale than his normal self. To her he looked like he was just sleeping but she knew that he wouldn't wake up again. She moved the blanket over his face and slowly walked out of the room.
Two days later..
Doctor. Rodriguez returned to her office and placed files on her desk. She rubbed her eyes slowly and sat in her chair and breathed deeply. She couldn't get B.B's face out of her mind. Knowing that he was in the hospital morgue brought more dread to her. She couldn't face planing a funeral.
She sighted and turned on her computer. She started to look for B.B's death certifícate so she can sign and send, it stunned her. She couldn't find it anywhere. She knew she had it. Then something didn't feel right. She quickly started to look for the sessions she took with him and she couldn't find anything. Then she started to look for anything on him.
She quickly picked up the phone and called the morgue.
"What do you mean that his body is gone?!" She shouted. "A corpse can't just disappear!" She said and slammed the phone down.
What was going on?! First the files and now the body. She rubbed her eyes and heard her phone ring.
"Hello." She asked and laid back in her hair.
"Yes Doctor. I'm glad to hear your voice again." Said a disorienting voice.
"L." She said and sat up. "Why am I not surprised that it's your doing."
"To the point as usual. I'm glad. I won't have to explain myself. But as you know I've taken the body and any other known existence of Beyond Birthday. This is goodbye Doctor. Thank you for all you've done." He said and hung up the phone.
She continued to hold the phone dumbstruck. Did he really have that much power to make B.B disappear just like that. She set down the phone and placed her head in her hands.
L slowly paced around his bedroom, until he heard a knock on his door. "You may enter." He said and stopped walking.
The door slowly opened and Wateri stepped inside. "Did you inform the doctor on what you've done?"
L nodded slowly and peaked over his shoulder to see B.B tucked in his bed. He still hasn't moved since the day L stopped his heart. "She wasn't too thrilled to find out what I have done. But it couldn't be helped."
"But was it wise to bring him here?" He asked and raised an eyebrow.
"I guess I am just atoning for pass sins.." He said and shrugged his shoulders slightly.
"Of course." He nodded and excused himself.
L walked towards his bed and sat down next to B.B. Soon he would wake up and have many questions on to what he has done. Or why he even did what he did. Even L didn't know why he did it. B.B would have lived out his days in the asylum until he died. That would have been the end of that. He would be out of sight and mind. But something deep inside of him snapped. He couldn't let B.B live out his days like that.. "I'll have to watch him.." He murmured and gently placed his hand on B.B's cheek. He felt so cold to the touch. "Until we meet again my friend."
"Hey." Said a voice. "Wake up." They said and nudged their foot against my sides.
I gasped deeply and gripped my chest. I felt my heart pounding deeply in my ears as I sat up quickly. "Whats going on?" I panted and looked up.
"Homeless people aren't suppose to be sleeping back here."
I blinked a bit. "Homeless?"
"Whatever you are, I don't care. Leave before I call the cops."
I got up slowly and gripped my head. I was still a bit groggy and leaned against the wall for support. I was still confused on where I was at. I knew I was no longer in the hospital, but I still wore the same clothes from before...before my heart stopped beating. "What have you done to me L." I whispered to myself and started to walk. I started to bump into people slowly. I was pushed a bit and insulted as I walked.
"My my." Said a voice. "You look really pathetic right now."
I blinked a bit and turned around to see no one there. "Not again." I groaned and felt something wet land on top of my head. I looked up at the sky and felt more droplets come down. "Rain." I said and touched my cheek. Its been so long since I felt the rain.
Soon the rain started to come down hard on me. I wiped my eyes and looked around.
"Run, run, run little rabbit." The voice said again and laughed.
"Leave me alone!" I cried and ran. I pushed more people out of my way and kept running. I had no idea where I was running to but I just knew that I had to get away.
Soon I found myself in front of a church. I breathed deeply and walked up the steps slowly and pushed the doors open. Inside candles were lit all around. I walked down the aisle, dragging my feet. When I got to the center I fell to my knees and gripped the floor. "I don't understand what happened to me...or what's happening to me..." I whispered. "I never once felt fear...but that's all I feel now. I feel fear...and confusion. But more fear towards myself. I fear myself and that I am falling into the dark again."
