RATE AND REVIEW OR NEAR AND MELLO KILL MATT O

Mello, Matt and the other children of Wammys House were stood in the giant main hall. The lights were off so it was completely dark apart from a few strobe lights which were flashing madly, enough to cause a seizure. The long wooden tables were covered in plates and bowls, filled with food that most of the children had never even seen before. Music played loudly and there was lots to do but most people were dancing or stood in small groups, whispering eagerly to each other. Despite his unfazed exterior, Mello was bitterly disappointed. Wammys could throw one hell of a party, that was true, but it wasn't enough. Not for Mello. L was here. L was here and ignoring him. That was the one thing that truly bothered the feisty blonde. They had all been told that L would spend a bit of time with each individual but it was a lie. Instead, Roger and Watari had taken the black haired detective to the main office and there he remained with the two of them. Probably talking about Near or something. Near... Mello's eyes flashed angrily at the mere thought of the boy's name. Why couldn't he crawl away and die or something? Stupid albino freak.

"Mello? Hello? Earth to Mello!" Mello was pulled back to reality by the sound of Matt's voice.

He looked at him instantly and frowned. "What?" Matt rolled his eyes behind the orange disguise of his goggles.

"I said I'm going to ask Aaron when the science homework's due. You know that project thingy me and him are working on together?"

Mello blinked dumbly then remembered. He, Matt, Aaron, Near and the other top ten students of the orphanage were in the same science class and they had all been given a partner to work on the volcano project with. Matt was lucky and was paired up with Aaron (Aaron was number six) whilst Mello was stuck with some fat bitch who probably ate the volcano they'd made together.

"Yeah sure whatever..." sighed the blonde.

He was too disappointed to care anymore. He didn't even wonder why Matt would go on a wild goose chase to find Aaron when Mello was also in his science class and stood next to him. He watched the redhead disappear into the crowd of kids then suddenly felt the urge to get chocolate. Screw chocolate. He wanted to dance!

"Aaron?" yelled Matt as he stumbled through the clump of dancing orphans, "Aaron where the hell are you?!"

The music was too loud to hear anything properly so even if Aaron was close by he might not be able to hear. As if on cue, a boy with messy black hair and calm turquoise eyes materialized before the redhead.

"BOO! Hi Matt! Were you calling me?" he trilled.

Matt just looked at him blankly and gestured to his ears.

"Can't hear you properly!" he shouted over the booming music.

Aaron rolled his eyes and pulled him to the corner of the room by his wrist. It was quieter – and darker – there. A few older boys with cigarettes leaned against the dull wall, eyeing them oddly.

"What did you want?" Aaron repeated once he was sure Matt would be able to hear now.

The redhead opened his mouth to reply but he stopped himself and frowned. Did someone just say Near? He glanced at a small group of boys huddled together and laughing at something. Aaron followed his gaze and scowled. Liner, Dallas and another three of the mindless thugs who enjoyed bullying the weaker kids. Pathetic, really.

"Yeah! And then maybe he'll actually show some emotion! He's a scary bastard, man. And what's with those eyes?! Hey we should tear them out and see if he's so smart then!" jeered the biggest of the five, earning himself a chorus of laughter and agreement from them.

"That would be epic! Hey do you remember earlier when I had him on the floor and he started crying? That was priceless!" laughed the leader of the bunch, Dallas of course.

More laughter came from the others.

Matt covered his mouth as he felt bile rising in his throat. Some of the things they were saying...it disgusted him. Sure he had never been Near's biggest fan but to torture another human and then laugh about it? It was plain twisted.

"Those bastards," growled Aaron from beside him.

The two could do nothing but stand, too appalled to move, and listen to the disgusting things that Dallas and the others spoke about what they would do to Near after the party.

Mello couldn't help smirking as he felt the eyes of the other students watching him in shock, wonder and admiration. He had always been a good dancer so now was the perfect time to show off about it. As he danced, he heard a shout somewhere from across the room. Even though the music was on so loud he could barely hear himself think, Mello knew this was Matt. He stopped dancing at once and opened his eyes, turning in a nanosecond towards the yells of anger and distress.

Now Mello had seen many things in his lifetime but nothing could compare to the sight he saw next.
