The nigh before the meeting with the Japanese Task Force was spent quietly looking through documents involving the Kira case and the reports of the FBI agents. What I was able to find over the few days I had spent searching was hat there was a 90% chance that Kira was a student, probably in high school .The time passed very quickly and by the time I was done there was only an hour left till our guests came .I got up from the chair I was sitting in and looked over to L. He was sitting in his own chair, in his usual crouch and was munching away at some chocolate cookies. Sensing my gaze L turned around.
Something I can help you with Ruby?
Oh no L. I was just thinking. I'm kind of worried about the arrival of the task force and how they will react to me. I've kind of gotten used to not being noticed that it scares me.
You don't need to worry about that. They are not coming here to judge you; they are coming to work on the case. So you should worry about what they thing of you.
Thank you L you always know what to say to make me feel better.
With that said I turned around and walked to the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea. Just I came back to the room L was in and sat down we heard a knock on the door.
-Come in its open – was L's reply.
A few seconds later the door opened and in came 5 men. They lined up and turned to L showing their badges and introducing them." That was stupid of them. They know that kira can kill only using a name and a face yet they give out their names so freely. Do they want to die "Just as that though came into my head L turned around and 'shot' them with his hands?
-What is the meaning of this? – Asked one of them clearly not amused by L's actions.
-If I was Kira Mr. Yagami you would be dead. As we know Kira can kill using only a name and a face. So don't give out your names so freely, let's value our lives. And with that said lets sit down. Everyone please turn off al electronic devices and put them on the table.
- What's the deal he still doesn't trust us – said the same officer as before
- That's not the case he just doesn't like being interrupted when he speaks – That was the firs time I had spoken since they had come. My voice seemed to finally get them to notice my presence.
-Who is she?'- Again the same officer asked.
- This is my assistant Ruby. She's been with me since the start of my career. When I old you we would work together I decided to make her come too. Mainly for two reasons : first, It would be easier to contact her this way and I wouldn't have hide her from you , and second , She needs to get used to working with people other than me.- was L's reply .
I sat there a little shocked by his answer .When I had agreed to work for him I had been prepared to stay in his shadow till the day I die , but it seemed L had other plans for me .
The rest of the meeting was uneventful. L explained to the Task Force what our deductions were and what makes us come the conclusions we came to. He told them about my thoughts on the possibility of Kira being a student. As soon as L had finished with his speech . One of the officers, Matsuda his name was, turned to me and L and asked.
I'm sorry if this sound a little rude but how old exactly are you two?
I'm 25 (not sure how old L is so I kind of made it up) and Ruby is 22. - Was L's answer- Can we go on now Matsuda?
Yes, sorry L.
As for that I want you to start calling me Ryuzaki instead of L.
Ok Ryuzaki. - Was the reply of the Task Force members?
A few hours later Watari came and gave each one of them a belt and a fake badge. They were a little against using the badges but finally we managed to convince them to use them. After receiving the badges and belts the officers left leaving me an L alone, Watari having gone out to get more sweets. I took my chance and turned to L.
- What did you mean earlier when you said that I needed to learn how to work with people other than you?
- I knew you were going to ask me about this Ruby. I meant that you wouldn't always work for me. A day would come when you'd have to work for someone else.
- You know that I don't want to work for anyone else right?
-I know but I won't be around all the time. A time would come when someone would replace me and you would work for him/her. That would be one of my successors, not that I plan on dying any time soon, and you and I both know I would solve crime as long as I breathe, so you don't need to worry.
-I would never willingly work for anyone else. I work for you, no one else.
-This is not the time for this we'll talk about this later on.
And with that said we both turned around and went back to work.
-Yes, Another chapter done. It was a bit hard for me to stick to the things they usually say. L might be a little OOC and for that sorry, but I did my best. Please ignore any spelling mistakes. And I hope you like it.
