Thanks to those who have reviewed...I can't see why it is soooo hard to get a few more reviews...I DIDN'T EVEN GET 5!...well, anyhow...
Pineapple-Sister: Rawr!
To everyone else...Pineapple-Sister is my new editor...well, my only editor...so, if there are any errors from here on out...IT'S HER FAULT!..-points across the room at Pineapple-Sister, who just shrugs and says "who, me?"...-
and to all readers who are having an issue that I like to call "the spontaneous spotting of purple elephants" : um...it has absolutely nothing to do with my story -backs up into the wall and scoots out of the room-
and last but not least, I'd like to say something to my friend, FullMetal Alchemistress : "LIGHTSWITCH!" -sorry to everyone who has no idea why "lightswitch" is so amazing...you people just wouldn't understand...-
alright, I'll stop with my pointless ramblings...
Enjoy the story!

Chapter 4
The Intruder
"NO!!!!!" L drops to the floor in tears. Soon enough he is in the fetal position sucking his thumb. "I NEED sugar to survive!"
"I'm sorry Matsuda. It looks like your secret will just have to be revealed after this little mishap is taken care of." Light says sadly. Matsuda looks overjoyed. Aizawa looks confused. Mogi looks, well, Mogi-ish. Souchiro looks sad, even though he tried to cover it up. L looks distraught over the loss of his closest friend, and only companion, the sugary objects downstairs.
"Well, I guess we should head downstairs to rescue L's precious sugar." Light looks bored as he says this. –Everyone was truly curious about whom Matsuda could possibly like…- Everyone stands up with Light, and they all follow him out the door. Matsuda is, of course, trailing in the rear. He was just about the darkest shade of red and was continuously looking from side to side for an escape route. Poor Matsuda was simply relieved that he didn't have to share his secret just yet.
The group ends up in the basement, after traveling down 14 sets of stairs -truthfully, the building is only 7 stories high, but Light purposely turned them around and got them lost. He enjoyed seeing L tremble and suffer: he just couldn't survive without his sugar.- The basement is dank and dark. Matsuda immediately begins mumbling about the alien invaders again. Clearly, in the movie, the aliens attack the innocent teenagers in the basement of their suburban home. Light simply turns to glare at Matsuda, and they all begin moving again. The basement is set up in a series of tunnels, passageways, and dead ends. L explains that this was to keep intruders from finding his candy. –Obviously that didn't work…- After getting the group lost for the umpteenth time, Light decides to pass on the duties of leading the group to L. –this should have been done long ago, because Light has never traveled this particular route before, and L goes down here about 27 times a day.- Soon enough they reach a long hallway. The walls are covered in licorice, and the doorways are made of icing. Gumdrops stand in for lights on the ceiling. –don't even get me started on the chocolate fountains in the middle of the hallway.- Light is having trouble breathing, and has already thrown up 3 times.
"Here we are!" L says triumphantly, as they reach the end of the hallway. –Poor Light is an interesting shade of green.-
The door in front of them was slightly cracked open. –the door itself was made of gingerbread…go figure…- A trail of cookie crumbs was lain on the floor, starting at the doorway. Carefully, L grabbed a sharpened giant candy cane from a door to the side. –Light glanced in that room and say that it was filled with weapons made out of candy.- L slowly pushed open the door to reveal the intruder…-scary theme music starts playing…-
"Wow, L, what a terrifying intruder." Light says to L with sarcasm practically dripping off each and every word.
"Hey, they're eating all of my white chocolate macadamia nut cookies!...whatever, they are the healthy ones anyhow…" L seems calm enough until he notices the intruders munching on a giant, triple chocolate, ooey-gooey, fudgy cookie. "No! Not my super cookie! That took 99 bakers from all over the world to create!" L breaks down in tears, and whips out his cell phone.
"Watari! I need the best exterminators in the universe to get rid of the intruders! Yes! Call them NOW!..." Light is laughing hysterically in the back ground along with Aizawa. Matsuda looks like he is about to cry, Souchiro still looks all serious, and Mogi is, of course, still Mogi-ish.
The smallest of the intruders glances up at the 6 humans hovering over it. Its little ears twitch, and its fluffy tail curls over in the cutest little way. The intruders, 12 little baby squirrels, slowly start to move towards L, who smells so sugary, the room and hallway are like lemons compared to his sugary stench.
"EEK! The intruders are going to get me!" L takes off running in the other direction with 12 hungry looking squirrels chasing after him. Matsuda is laughing.
"'The intruders are going to get me!' 'Oh no! I'm scared of baby squirrels!' 'EEK!'" Matsuda is having so much fun mocking L, that he hardly notices Aizawa putting an alien mask on. "Who would have guessed that L would have such a stupid fear?" Matsuda turns around and comes face to face with Aizawa in an alien mask.
"EEK! THE ALIEN INVADERS ARE GOING TO GET ME!" Matsuda takes off in the same direction as L. Aizawa immediately starts laughing.
"Um, Light?"
"Yes, Watari?"
"L has fled the building with a pack of small squirrels following him. Matsuda, on the other hand, has somehow or another gotten himself stuck on the roof of the building."
"Jeez! I'm always going to have to be the one to take care of the stupid issues with everyone!"
"Light, since L is no longer in the building, you are in charge. What would you like me to do?"
"Hm…Watari, you are in charge of getting Matsuda off the roof. You seem to be good at getting him to become, well, unstuck. Mogi, you and I will go after L, and rescue him from the squirrels. Dad, Aizawa, you two will be in charge of continuing our investigation until we all return. I have no clue how long all of this could possibly take…"
About three miles away from the building…
"Stupid…intruders…I have foiled you!" L pants as he crawls further down the road. –he isn't much of a runner, and his sugar rush wore off soon enough…-
"Must...escape…from squirrels…" L continues crawling, as countless onlookers stare at the psychotic creature crawling down the road. One onlooker pulls out a cell phone and calls the nearest padded-wall asylum…

Ooh…what could happen next?
REVIEWS!...I NEED REVIEWS!
Ok…so maybe 10 was a little much…I'll go back to 5…maybe for once I'll actually get all of them...wink wink nudge nudge
Next Time: What will happen to L? Will Matsuda ever recover from his second alien invader attack? Will Matsuda ever reveal who he likes? Will I stop leaving the story on a cliffhanger?
