(Karins pov)

I left the store with the few things that I needed to get so that the task force would not be suspicious, and walked through the streets, my mind filled with everything that has happened in the past week.

L and Watari supposedly died, and they both woke up with no complications. L and I finally got together, something I have been wanting since the chunin exams.

I got the proof needed to arrest and convict both Light and Misa, and now I was heading back to Headquarters to begin part 3 of my plan.

Part one was saving L and Watari, part two was getting the confession from Light and now part 3 was getting the tapes to the task force members.

I looked up as the building looked over me and I had to pause, trying not to show the pain I felt at the events that occurred the last time I was inside. The fear and pain I felt as I watched L fall after his name was written in the Death Note caused my heart to freeze and I had to force myself to remain calm and remember that he was alive and safe.

I entered the main room and looked up as Matsuda approached me.

"Do you need any help with that Asami?" He asked. I had almost forgotten the name L gave them when we first met with the officers.

"No, I'm alright Matsuda, but thank you." I replied quietly, like my clone reminded me that I should.

Not like it was hard to sound sad with the memories rushing through my mind as I looked over at Ls favorite chair, now being occupied by Light.

That made me angry, but the overwhelming pain I felt as my mind replayed Ls 'death' pushed that anger to the back of my mind and suddenly all I wanted to do was hide in my room and cry.

Matsuda, seeming to have sensed my mood took my bag from me and led me to the couch where he handiled me my favorite drink, a large double chocolate mocha frappicino with extra whip cream and extra chocolate drizzle. I nodded to him in thanks and took a tentative sip, lettiing the drink slide down my throat as I sighed, exhaling all the pent up pain I was feeling. I hoped that these next couple of days would be over quickly.

"Has anything come up since I left?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

"No of course nothing has happened." Aizawa fumed.

"The whole investigation seems to be at a stand still now that L and Watari are dead, and now we are having to deal with that Near guy." Matsuda replied. I sat there as the task force were talking amongst themselves about how the investigation had pretty much stopped in the past few days. Mr. Yagami stated that he feared that they would never catch Kira if things kept going like this.

I wanted to tell him that if would be over soon, but I kept quiet, not wanting to give Light the chance to suspect me. Luckily Matsuda told the group that as long as we don't give up we will catch Kira and bring him to justice.

"We need to do it for L and Watari!" He stated enthusiastically.

"You're right Matsuda. We can not let their deaths be in vain." Mr. Yagami replied. I merely nodded, tears stinging my eyes. Mr. Yagami apologized when he noticed the tears I refused to let fall.

"You know Asami. No one will blame you if you had to leave." Aizawa told me.

"I don't know..." Was all I could say.

(Lights pov before Karin returned)

I was busy going through Ls computer, erasing everything on it that mentioned me as Kira and the truth about the Death Note. I knew that L would have a back up plan in case he died, so it came to no surprise that someone called Near began investigating us.

There were few things that ever did surprise me. Especially since I obtained the Death Note. The biggest surprise was Asami.

A most beautiful and intelligent woman, and I knew the moment I first met her that she would make the perfect Queen for my new world. I was surprised that such a beauty was on the task force, even though I knew that she wasn't from the police force.

I had realized early on that she must have been brought in by L. I decided that I must win her from the detective. My plans to make her my Queen got complicated when Misa came into the picture.

Misa, the naive fool. She thinks that just because she has the shinigami eyes that she will be my girlfriend and eventually my Queen. It was unfortunate that I had to let her think so in order to take out my biggest threat, my rival not only in the L Kira war, but also the man who had my true Queen.

And Asami, you will be my Queen and together we will rule the world!

I discreetly looked up as the object of my thoughts entered the room. I watched as Matsuda took my Queen and sat her on the couch handing her a mocha frappicino, and I listened to the discussion about Near.

I looked up when Asami got up and grabbed her shopping bags and walked to the elevator. Her eyes caught mine for a brief second as the elevator doors closed. I hid my grin at the thought of having her soon, but for now I will just content myself with keeping a secret eye on her.

(Karins pov)

I inwardly shivered at the hungry look I saw an Lights eyes. I feared that I might be in more danger than I originally thought. I had the feeling that Light was going to confront me soon and I only wished that Misa was not in Nears custody.

I had my demon senses focused the entire time I was in there. I knew Light was listening to our conversation. It didn't take a genius to know what was on his mind. The second I entered the room I could smell his arousal, the scent spiked every time I spoke, or when my name was mentioned. And every time L and Misa were mentioned the arousal scent dimmed and I could see his aura spike angrily, only to calm as soon I spoke again.

It was those reasons I had to get out, the horrid smell was making me feel sick.

I had to plan carefully if I wanted to remain safe until I could get back to L. I also decided not to tell L, because I don't want him to worry about me more than he already is.

I looked up when I heard a knock on the door. I used my demon senses to check the hall before I opened the door. I could smell that Light had been the one at my door, but there were no heartbeat on the other side so I knew that no one was out there.

I cautiously opened the door to see a little blue box with a note on top of it. I carefully picked it up and locked my door.

The note read 'To my beautiful Queen. I hope to see you wear this and never take it off. Light' The box held a silver heart necklace with a ruby inside of the heart.

Looking disdainfully at the necklace, I smiled as I came up with a plan.

(Nears pov)

I looked down at the cell phone that notified me of a text.

'Near. I have something I need you to give Misa. The item is a necklace from Light that will be infused with my chakra. I will send it to you with a clone, once Misa has it on her she will be brought to the entrance of HQ. Once here Misa and Light will not be able to leave the building until I deactivate the necklace.'

I told the SPK members to leave the room and then I replied to the Uchiha heiress. Within minutes of sending the message I hear the pop of Clone Karins arrival. I nodded to the clone and she disappeared, leaving the necklace and a note here.

(Ls pov)

I was staring at my computer, eating a slice of the strawberry cake Karin made for me when I heard a pop come from downstairs.

It had only been a few hours since Karin left, so I was surprised and worried when I heard the pop. I rushed out of my room and stared at what I knew was a clone.

"The real Karin told me to tell you that she was going to come back here. Some things came up at HQ. She told me that there is nothing to worry about and that she would explain when she gets here." Then the clone vasnished.

I crouched on the couch trying to come up with any reason for Karin to return, not that I was complaining, but if something happened to her while she was at Headquarters...

My mind trailed off as I heard another pop downstairs. I waited with bated breath for my girlfriend to enter the room.
