~~1 week later~~

"Karen, you have a letter," L shouted to me. I jumped out of bed and ran down the hall. I grabbed the letter and rushed back to my room. I opened it and read it.

Karen,

Thank goodness you're okay. We are so proud of you for following you're heart. There will be no groundings since we know where you're coming from. We did something like you're doing right now. your mom and I ran away one time, because your mom's parents and mine wouldn't let us date each other. We simply followed our heart and look what happened. We're happily married with beautiful children.

-Mom and Dad.

Kiddo, you scared me to death. I'm glad you're okay, thought. Miranda and I are still together with some good news. She's 4 months pregnant with a baby girl; her name is going to be Casey Marie. Hopefully, when you get back you'll be able to meet her. Thanks for the letter; now I can sleep.

-Brendan

I totally noticed you were gone. It was quieter and there was more food in the house. I'm just kidding of course. Mom has been really sad lately, but your letter helped her a lot. Come home soon.

-Josh

Karen! Thanks for writing. I miss you so much! I meet a new friend while you were gone. Her name is Hunter. She has brown hair like you that smells like strawberries. She's really pretty like you, too. Don't worry thought, you'll always be my bestest friend.

-Alex

Sissy, I miss you! The night you left, I woke up and tried to find you. I thought you were playing hide and seek, but I couldn't find you. I started crying and wouldn't talk to anyone. I slept in your bed, because it smelt like you. I watched Big Bang Theory every night and laughed at the jokes. Mommy took me to this special doctor. She took mommy that it was withdraw syndrome. Mommy was worried and she tried to make me feel better. It didn't work. She said that Alex and I can come live with you! We'll call you when we get there. I love you, sissy!

-Natalie

I closed up the letter and opened the closet. I found a new wardrobe. I put on a pair of blue jeans and a white short-sleeved shirt. I walked out and went to eat breakfast. I ate two pancakes and a piece of bacon.

"Who was the letter from?" L asked.

"My family," I answered. He nodded and continued eating his chocolate chip pancakes. I sat through another awkward meal and then walked back to my room. I lied on my bed and tried to take a nap. I slept for about an hour, until I heard Light shout for me. I got up and walked to the front door.

"Are these yours?" he asked. I looked down and saw Natalie and Alex. Natalie had her once waist long, chocolate brown hair, now cut in layers with hazel highlights. Her baby blue eyes were sparkling when she saw me. Alex used to have long, brown hair; now, it's cut really short. His dark blue eyes lit up when he saw me walk in.

"Sissy," Alex and Natalie said at the same time. They ran up to me and hugged me.

"I'm guessing these are your siblings?" Light asked.

"You guessed correctly," I smiled.

"What are their names?" He asked, looking them.

"I'm Natalie and this is my twin brother, Alex," she explained to Light. Light nodded and walked away. "We missed you, Sissy," Natalie smiled.

"I missed you, too. I'm glad mom and dad let you come," I told them. I walked them to my room and showed them around the place.

"Who all lives here?" Alex asked.

"Not many people. Just Me, Light, L, Misa, Mello, and Matt," I told him.

"Can we meet them?" Natalie asked, excitedly.

"Maybe at dinner," I assured them. They nodded and we walked back to my room. We sat on the bed and started talking.

"Have you guys made any new friends?" I asked them.

"Natalie has. A very 'special' friend," Alex snickered.

"Alex, shut up!" Natalie said, hitting her brother.

"Who is it?" I asked.

"No one!" she shouted.

"His name is Nick and he's her boyfriend," Nick said, making kissy faces.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" I asked.

"Nope. I'm staying single. All the girls who go to my school are ugly," He explained.

"I go to your school," Natalie shouted.

"Exactly," Alex laughed. This went on for about 20 minutes until L called for me to go to the board room. "Can we go?" Alex asked.

"Sure," I told him and we started walking to the board room. We walked in and everyone stared at me. "L, can they stay for the meeting?" I asked.

"Sure, but only if they can help," L said. "Let's start the meeting. Natalie and Alex, have you heard off Kira?" L asked.

"Yes, he was the killer who killed all those bad guys, right?" Natalie asked. L nodded.

"Right. We are trying to find him and throw him in jail," L told them.

"Why? He only killed those bad guys who were going to die once they were in jail," Alex protested. L was speechless. I guess he didn't think that far ahead.

"We'll it's not his job to kill those people. It's the police's job," I explained to Alex. I just kind of made that up. Alex just stared at me like he knew I was faking it.

"But maybe Kira thinks he's helping and we just need to tell him to stop. Just like if a puppy pees on your carpet; you just tell him to stop and don't do it again. You don't go out and kill the puppy," Natalie protested.

"But if the puppy hurts someone, then you have to put it down," L said.

"What if the puppy doesn't know any better? Then you have to teach it to be better," Alex retorted. I sighed. 'These kids really like to protect Kira. Well I'm not going down without a fight,' I thought to myself.

"What if you told the puppy to stop and he kept doing it?" I asked. He thought for a second.

"Did you tell Kira to stop?" Natalie asked.

"Not necessarily," L mumbled. Alex looked at the case fine and whispered to Natalie. L and I were studying them while they talked. After a minute they stopped.

"We also think that you are wrong, L. Light cannot be Kira," Natalie said matter-of-factly.

"What do you mean?" L shouted.

"Will tell you in the morning. It's time for bed," Alex told them. I rolled my eyes.

"Can't you just tell us?" I said, angrily.

"Nope. It's a cliff-hanger," Natalie winked as she walking down the hall with Alex close behind.

"See you guys in the morning," I told them and walked to my room. I looked at the clock; it read 10:21. That was a long meeting. I lied in my bed. I saw that Alex and Natalie found the extra blankets and are having a 'meeting under it'.
