I doubt anyone was expecting everyone to have a connection to each other. Lovely plot twists~
"Well Kitty-Kat is an odd one." I said once she was gone. Can the beacon still hold hope when the thing she wants to believe becomes silence...? Beacon...
"She confuses people often. But she's really nice, Moni!" Viola replied cheerfully. I nodded in response.
Viola tapped her fingers impatiently. "I'm surprised you didn't say anything about being called Moni."
"I'll yell at you later. I'm just thinking." I said, Rain sent an all too knowing look my way and smirked.
"Just give Moni a minute." She said, "So the payment for Williams...?"
"Quick to the point as ever I see." Viola sighed. She took a case out of seemingly nowhere and handed it to me.
As I counted the bills inside of the case I listened to their conversation.
"So what is Katia like, Vi?" Rain asked. Vi smiled and played with her pale locks.
"Let's see, Katia can be very mysterious at one moment. The next she can be emotionless or intellectual." She stated. "She can be pretty adorkable though!" Rain nodded for her to continue.
I stared at them before pocketing the money. She gave me too much again. She always does it to help pay for Way (even though she doesn't know him personally). I've long since given up and refusing the extra money. She never listens and just gives more.
"Let's see, her cousin on her mom's side is the famous L. And that girl who was with us was her twin, Lily." She paused for a moment when she saw Rain and I tense. "Something wrong, lovies?"
"No, no. Everything's fine." I said, I sent Rain a look before clearing my throat. "Could you tell us more about her family maybe?"
"Sure but I don't know much... Oh! She carries a picture with her everywhere but she never let's anyone see it. I think it might be her family or something, she barely says anything about them, but it's all good things when she does- for the most part."
"I think that's enough information or now." Rain said, she stood up and motioned for me to follow her. "We really need to get going Vi. Niece to visit you know."
"Oh right your cute niece." Viola stood up as well. "I guess I'll see you later, Moni, Annie. Ciao!"
My twin and I left and almost ran to Wammy's. I climbed through my bedroom window (who uses doors these days?) and walked out to the hall.
'Katia mentioned Beacon. She had to have when she said Believe and Silence like that. So she knows us. Someone named Lily in the Birthday family, someone named Lily was there... But plenty of people have that name. But that question...'
I clenched my fists and shook my head. No, I'm being stupid. Katia is not Believe Birthday. Right? But then again there's some evidence to back that theory up- oh shit I'm starting to sound like L.
But something told me that was her. That was Blake and now she's gone...
She was right there, calling herself Katia Ames- the scream must have been her too. The serum could have lost effect. That question wasn't even a question it was more like a riddle, a code.
Oh my God.
I punched the wall in anger.
"Are you kidding me!?" I slumped against the wall.
"So you figured it out." Rain stated. "Will you tell Beacon?"
"Some things." I muttered. I wasn't very happy right now.
I went to where I knew Beacon would be at this time; On the roof.
"Beeee!" I called out. I saw a pale girl run towards me.
"What is it, Aunty S?"
"I have news, good news, but still news so let's take it partially seriously." I smiled at her. Beacon hasn't really changed much personality-wise, she's even taken an interest in future anime! She kept her hair shoulder length and had red streaks in her hair.
"Okay. So you know how it's November 1st and Blake said she would contact us at the beginning of November?" She nodded.
"Yeah of course I do. Why are you- Did you see her!?" Beacon started throwing questions at me.
"Blake is fine, she's alive and well. She joined the mafia and is working on the Kira case, also Imighthaveseenhertodaybutdidn'tknowitwasheruntilaftershewasgone." I rambled, Beacon stared at me.
"Aunty, I still barely understand you're mumbling. Please repeat that, slowly."
"I might have seen her today but didn't know it was her until after she was gone." I repeated. "Now I have to contact Viola for her." So I can skin her alive.
'You are really morbid when you're conflicted. Please stay this way!' Rain smiled as I frowned. She always loved our telepathic connection.
"Really!? We're gonna see her again?" Beacon was beaming, she looked half ready to jump up and down.
"That's right! But we still need to call Si's friend." Rain said, Beacon shoved a cell-phone in my hand.
"Call her now!"
" I am! When did you get so excited and demanding?" I questioned. I dialled Viola's personal number and heard it ring a few times before it went to voicemail.
"Hi! This is Viola, I'm a bit busy at the moment so call me back later or leave a message! Or don't. Unless you're a friend you shouldn't even have this number. Ciao!"
"Viola pick up your goddamned phone it's me!" I hung up the phone and gave it back to Beacon. Viola always has her phone on. Not to mention she's always up for a chat so his was odd.
"She must be at a meeting or something." Rain said, she looked confused as well.
I'll try calling Viola again later, who knows she might really be at a meeting. Even if that's highly unlikely knowing her.
We were just about to head inside when my phone went off. Thinking it was Viola I gladly answered.
"Viola! Is th-"
"S! Get to the hospital now! Way, h-he's flat-lining! Please I get here soon I don't know what to do! And bring Matt and Mello with you!" Mikey begged on the other line.
My eyes widened. "Mikey you need to calm down. I'll be there in a few minutes just try to calm down." I heard dry sobbing on the other end. I turned to Rain and handed her the phone.
"Rain, please calm him down. Way's flat-lining and we need to get to the hospital and find M&M now!"
We ran downstairs to Matt and Mello's room, Beacon threw the door open. They were playing something on the T.V, it looked like a future Resident Evil game.
I explained what Mikey said on the phone and they quickly turned the game off. Since Rain was busy I opened a portal to the hospital and we jumped in. We were in the lobby and Mikey was no where to be found.
Mello lead us to the third floor after telling the lady we were friends of Warren and Michael Way (lovely alias' you guys) we saw Mikey in the fetal position next to a door.
"Mikey are you okay?" Matt asked, he knelt down in front of the shaking boy.
"Matt his brother is dying, of course he's not alright!" Rain whispered harshly at him.
Two hours past before we were told anything. Way is in a semi-stable condition but he won't make it through the week without enough payment. Which of course we don't have.
I of course wasn't having this when Mikey started crying.
"Dammit lady! Take my money and fix him!" I threw the money Viola gave me on the ground as Matt had to drag me and Mikey away from the room before security did.
"You're a doctor for fuck's sake! Help. Him!" Mello swore and cursed the poor nurse out until Rain hit his pressure point.
Rain picked up the money and sighed. "We'll be back with more money later. I'm sure you can keep him alive until then." She said and led Beacon and Mello outside with us.
"He has to live, he has to live." Mikey chanted. "He will live right?"
Matt placed a hand on his shoulder. He didn't offer any words but that might be a good thing. False hope can be good but I don't think that's what Mikey needs right now, that's what he's gotten for two years after all.
We looked for Mikey's car after he calmed down and Mello woke. Matt drove us back to Wammy's where we brainstormed.
"We could sell Roger's cars." I said, Beacon nodded.
"Yeah. L doesn't need all of those anyways." She said, Matt frowned and shook his head.
"We did that before remember? We didn't even get enough money to pay for a month."
I ignored them and let my thoughts wander. Way wasn't going to make it, that much was obvious. When he's gone, then what? Mikey would be heartbroken. Then? He'll be on a path of self-destruction. And now there's this fore-shadowing stuff happening.
Katia, no, Blake would have to wait, for now we need to focus on Way. Even if he's hanging by less then a thread.
