3rd Match

Mello vs. Near

Almost immediately as soon as Mikami and Sayu were out of the room, Mello and Near entered. Near was on the red side and Mello was on the black side. Obviously, just because he's Mello, he just had to rant about something.

"Mwhahaha! I am BLACK! The best colour in the universe of colours! If I could own a colour, it would be black!"

Near just sat down silently, "You do know that red goes first... Right?"

Mello's eyes grew wide, right before he jumped over the table and tackled Near from his chair. "I am RED! The best colour in the universe of colours! If I could own a colour, it would be red!"

"Someone sells out easily... Guess that means I'm black," Near got up and shuffled over to the black side.

"Hahaha! Look! The albino is black! It's a black albino! You're an oxymoron! Hahaha! Oxymoron is fun to say!"

"Sure, poke fun at the black albino... Idiot..." Near muttered, waiting for Mello to stop ranting and move.

Mello moved his piece and laughed, "Who's the idiot now?"

Near calmly moved one of his, "Still you."

Once more, the match continued on, each moving their pieces strategically so they could win.

Mello jumped another one of Near's pieces, "Hahaha! I'm to win! MWHAHAHAHA!!"

"Have fun with that..." Near said, moving his black tile away from Mello's to stay in the game longer.

After a few more grueling minutes, Mello finally had Near kneeling on the floor in defeat. Well, in reality, he was just sitting on the floor like he normally does but in Mello's mind he was crying in the corner.

"FINALLY!" Mello yelled.

"Yes finally... Now I can actually do something that's worth my time..."

"B...bu...but! I finally defeated you! I now have proof that I'm better than you! That it's going to be ME as the next L!"

Near looked blankly at him, "Mello... It's just checkers; it's only one step up from tic-tac-toe... I really don't care."

Mello stood there shocked, "No it's not! You're just jealous that I actually beat you fair and square this time!"

"Is it considered fair and square when the other person let you win?" Near calmly 'stood up' and walked out the door.

Mello sniffed, "He just doesn't want to admit that I won..."

After that, Mello walked out the door he came through, one more leaving the room free.

"The third match goes to Mello!!" Watari said through the laptop once again.
