L began to formulate a plan. This new situation irritated the hell out of him and he could swear he was on the way to becoming insane.

'Goddamn Kira case...' The detective thought angrily, pinching the bridge of his nose. Light and Beyond instantly recognised this act of irritation and looked at L with concerned eyes. They then glared at each other, brown eyes clashing with red. The detective simply rolled his eyes at the two of them, both acting like children.

"Forget this God damned Kira!" Quinn yelled.
"What about Lexi? She saved your life and now you're not even going to help her?"
"Why are you still here?" Mello asked.
"Because as we said before we're not leaving until you agree to help us!"
"Listen there is a high chance that they have something to do with Kira. So if we find Kira we find her."
"And what if we don't? Are we just meant to let her sit their and rot?"
"She'll be fine. She's a vampire."
"Yeah but what about Jackson… they'll be tearing each other apart."
"Then they only have each other to blame." Mello said. Suddenly Quinn crossed the floor. The next time anyone saw him he was holding Mello against the wall by his neck with his fangs extended.
"Fine we'll help you." Mello said. "Please don't kill me." Quinn dropped him and walked to the large sofas where he sat next to his cousin. Beyond sat on the coffee table in a similar way L sat. Everyone but he and L were arguing, leaving the two to talk.

"Why did you push Light out of the bush?" L asked coldly.

"..." Beyond simply stared at the floor.

"This is your fault. All of it." The copy looked up and saw something nobody had ever seen before. L's eyes were filled with complete hatred. He'd seen the detective angry, but never like this.

"I...It's..." the copy tried to say. L simply gave him a death glare and turned his back on the copy.

"You can't entirely blame him, Ryuzaki..." Light said. As soon as those words had been spoken, Light was also met with a death glare.

"Who asked for your opinion?" L asked sharply.

"Guys why are you arguing?" Jinkz said spinning on the chair next to L. "Just calm down. We agreed that if you help us find Lexi and Jackson we'll help you find Kira."
Light watched as the girl span insanely on the chair. She was crouched just like L but with one foot hanging off in order to spin herself. Her black hair span around her shoulders while her red and black eyes shined with excitement. Suddenly a map popped up on the large computer screen and everyone turned to it. In the middle of nowhere was a random red dot that was flashing. "Found Jackson!" Jinkz cried jumping off of the chair. She landed perfectly and didn't seem at all dizzy.
"What do you mean you found him?" Ash asked moving quickly to join her.
"I never told you guys this but when he was being a 'cute' sleeping wolf I chipped him. That's why he had that mole on his ear."
"Dude that's gross."
"I like his mole. It's cute." Kiva said in his defence.
"Are we really discussing this now?" Light asked.
"All we have to do is find out where that is and how to get there."
"That's an island…."

"Easter Island to be exact" Beyond cut in. "What do you think L?" There was no reply.

"Ryuzaki?" Light called, looking around the room for the detective.

L was stood in the bathroom, staring into the mirror. His hands were shaking as they gripped the sink. The mirror showed him that his skin had become paler, his eyes somehow darker. He rolled up his shirt sleeve to find that the gashes had disappeared. He turned back to the mirror, his hands still shaking along with the fast beat of his heart. Had Kira finally gotten to him? If so, why wasn't he dead? He was looking at his eyes when Kiva knocked on the door.
"Ryuzaki? Are you in there?" L stayed silent as he watched his eyes. They had become brighter and more efficient. "Ryuzaki you know I can read your thoughts right?" L sighed and turned to open the door. As he did he saw the smaller girl stood on the other side. "Oh my God. Are you okay?"
"I don't know."
"You're so pale."
"So are you." L pointed out obviously.
"Yeah but I'm dea…. Wait a second…." Kiva's hand was suddenly on L's chin. He felt awkward as she looked directly into his eyes. She suddenly stepped back and called Quinn who appeared in an instant. "Quinn there's something wrong. His eyes." Quinn looked at him then frowned.
"I knew it was a bad idea for Lexi to give him her blood."
"Why?"
"It's like a concentrated amount."
"So he's changing into a-" Jinkz appeared, giving Kiva a 'not right now' look. L simply glared.

"What's happening to me?" He asked, irritation in his voice.

"Ryuzaki, calm down." Kiva told him. L simply tightened his grip on the sink and Quinn noticed it began to crack.

"Tell me!" He shouted, losing his mask of emotion. Beyond and Light appeared, joining in with everyone at staring at L. The sink cracked a little more, as everyone took a step back.

"I want to know..." L whispered.
"Well I think… you may be… mutating."
"Mutating?" L span quickly and slammed his hands onto the girl's shoulders. "Into what?" he yelled in her face. Suddenly Quinn pushed him off of her and she rubbed her shoulder.
"I don't know. It happened to me and I turned into a fox." L froze.
"That's not too bad I guess."
"…. With seven tails."

"…"
"Shit." L said. He then collapsed to the ground and held his head. He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach. Kiva dropped to her knees next to him.
"Ryuzaki, look at me. It's going to hurt. Then it'll stop."
"What will stop?"
"Ryuzaki, I'm sorry…. You're going to die….."

"How morbid..." Jinkz muttered. L shut his eyes as the pain intensified. It felt as if his entire abdomen was on fire.

"It'll stop soon" Kiva reassured him, putting a hand on his shoulder. For some reason unknown to L, anger replaced his pain and he pushed Kiva away.

"Ryuzaki!" Quinn growled at him. L sat up, his dark eyes narrowed.

"Get the hell away from me" He hissed at them. Everyone watching just looked at L in shock.

"We're only trying to-"

"Just go all ready!"

"Stop freaking out!" Quinn yelled. Suddenly L collapsed and everything went dark.

Lexi awoke in a dark room. She tried to move but felt the chains around her wrists restricting her movement. Her sight was blurred as she felt the last of the tranquilizer leave her body. Lexi blinked as her sight cleared. She saw Jackson sat on the opposite side of the room staring at her.
"Finally the girl wonder is awake!" Jackson cried.
"Get lost Jackson!" Lexi spat back. She managed to pull herself into a sitting position and looked at the boy she despised.

"What did I do?" He growled.

"If you hadn't been going to maul Light, we wouldn't be in this mess!"

"Who's Light?"

"The kid you were going to maul!"

"What a stupid name... Hey! I wasn't going to maul him!"

"Finally the girl wonder is awake!" Jackson cried.
"Get lost Jackson!" Lexi spat back. She managed to pull herself into a sitting position and looked at the boy she despised.
"What did I do?" He growled.
"If you hadn't been going to maul Light, we wouldn't be in this mess!"
"Who's Light?"
"The kid you were going to maul!"
"What a stupid name... Hey! I wasn't going to maul him!"
"No just rip his face off!"
"Well you're the one that set them freaking hunters on us!"
"Actually I was busy trying to kill them copies! You're the one who baled last night!"
"That was because you were being an arrogant cow!"
"Get over yourself just because you can't take orders!"
"I shouldn't have to!"
"Why because you're so special!"
"No because I never chose to have anything to do with your stupid circle daybreak!"
"Okay first it's not mine! And secondly I had the same amount of choice as you!"
"Of course cause you had no other choice!"
"So you would've killed Kiva if it meant you were free?"
"No of course not!"
"So you expected me to let Stephen die?" As she yelled it a door in the corner of the room opened and in walked three large men surrounding a small thin man. He had a long white medical coat and wore an eye patch over his left eye.

"So this is Lexi Boutelle and her mutt, Jackson Renoir." The man laughed.

"No shit, Sherlock" Lexi muttered, rolling her eyes.

"Skipping simplicities, I'm here to-"

"Why are you wearing a lab coat?"

"I'm... checking that you are functioning properly..."

"Right..." Jackson glared at the man, but said nothing.

"I was wandering," The man continued casually "If you knew where L was. We need him to update our... medical equipment"

"Even if I did know," Lexi argued "I wouldn't tell you"

"Yeah!" Jackson exclaimed, then he looked at Lexi with confusion. "Who's L?" Lexi rolled her eyes again.

"Why is it," She muttered "That wherever I go, I'm surrounded by idiots?"

"Ignoring that comment. Why wouldn't you tell me?"
"Because you want to kill him."
"Excuse me?"
"You're a Kirian who wants L to die so Kira can continue murdering. All because you think criminals should die." The man seemed shocked.
"Well you defiantly seem to know me. Why don't you tell me a little about yourself."?
"Not likely. You'll just have Kira killed me. I mean I'm guessing that that's why you have the camera. You want us to pretend that you're going to kill us L will hand himself over to save us, you'll record him broadcasting his real name then kill him. Am I right?"
"Oddly yes."
"I knew I was. Anyway you're all sick! How can you will people to die?"
"You can't exactly talk Lexi can you?" Jackson muttered.
"Not in front of the bad guys Jackson!"
"Oh are we the bad guys now?"
"Yes. You want Kira to kill people!" Lexi leant forwards. "You know a lot of those people were proven to be innocent after they were killed! So Kira's just been killing innocent people for no reason. So do you still think he's a hero now?" Lexi leant back happy with her argument. The man suddenly stepped forwards with a knife in his hand.

"Never confuse our god with a lowly criminal!" He hissed.

"Why do religious people hate me?" Lexi whined, as the knife was placed next to her throat.

"We're going to torture you" The man smirked "Then... you're going to die."

L awoke to a slight nausea swirling in his stomach. He groaned and sat up, finding himself chained to a chair.

"What...?" He asked groggily. He looked around, seeing everyone working. He blinked, his eyes slowly adjusting. He suddenly felt a sharp object being pressed onto his tongue and he opened his mouth slightly, pressing his finger to the object. He instantly pulled his finger away at the slight pain. His canine teeth had become sharper for some reason. Matsuda was the first to notice he was awake.

"L's awake!" He cried cheerily. Everyone turned to L, caution in their eyes. Quinn opened his mouth to speak when L's stomach growled.

"I'm hungry" The insomniac said, nodding slightly. Quinn instantly looked nervous. L noticed this and frowned slightly. "What?"

"Ryuzaki please don't kill us…." Misa whined from the opposite side of the room.
"Here." Light said handing him a cupcake. L moved his mouth to bite it but suddenly sensed something more appealing. He smelt the blood in Light's hand and before he had a chance to stop himself his long fangs were sliding into his wrist. Light tried to move but his hands were clenched around it. Suddenly Ash and Quinn were pulling back L's shoulders as Kiva and Jinkz tried to free Light's wrist. They managed to pull him free as the large computer beeped. The chair fell backwards taking L with it. The chains became loose and L stood. He looked around the room as everyone started to look at the screen. A news report popped up with a blonde news reporter.
"This just in. A message is being sent to the NHN station now. It is a message from the Kirians to the world renowned detective L. If he is watching I suggest that he take this seriously as we have been sent an image." Suddenly an image popped up on the screen of Lexi and Jackson. They both were covered in blood and looked as if they had been hurt badly. Suddenly everyone was leaning as close to the screen as possible. Then the screen changed to a red screen.

"Dear L, we have your associates. If you do not comply with our demands, they will die. You will meet us at the Note Blue in Aoyama in 2 days time. If anyone but you is present, I will instantly kill the girl and the mutt. When we meet, we shall make a compromise. You will give us what we de-" The TV suddenly shattered, a chair colliding with the screen. Everyone turned to see L, panting, a dark red ring around his dark irises.

"Ryuzaki?" Light questioned, afraid for his safety. The insomniac simply growled, his eyes flitting to each person, cold and filled with hate.

"Ryuzaki, what are we going to do?" Kiva asked. He glared at her then she stepped forwards angrily. "Okay listen here. My sister and boyfriend are now having their lives threatened. That is not good. Now you are the only one that can help them. I know you're freaking out and I did but you don't have to loose your mind just because you changed like half of us have! Now just get a grip!" Kiva then slapped him and he suddenly felt changed. He sighed heavily then looked at the large group.
"I've got it… we're going to do what they want…." Everyone looked at him confused.

"Wait we're going back to Japan!" Lexi cried.
"Shut up." said the man. He gave her another cut on her face.
"We were just there!" She cried.
"Lexi shut up your voice hurts my ears!"
"How about now?" Lexi yelled leaning to his ears.
"Just shut up you stupid girl!" The man cut her again on her cheek. "You're starting to irritate me!"
"Think about me I live with her!"
"Shut up you mutt!"
"Yeah you mutt!" Lexi joined in. She laughed. The man lifted the knife again. She sighed and tilted her face. "Do it this side, I don't want both sides to be ruined" The man sighed and slashed her face again. She knew what was coming. She knew what would take place in Japan.

She knew L was coming for them... along with Kira.
