Light walked into the main room of the investigation, he was stunned at the scene that unfolded, "Uh… Guys?"
"It's mine! I went and got it!" A plate with a chocolate piece of cake was pulled towards Rose.
L made a pout face, "But… You love me." The plate jerked back to L.
"But it's mine!" Rose pulled the plate back towards her.
Light blinked and shook his head, "Hey! Are you fucking kidding me?! Are you honestly telling me two of the greatest minds are fighting over cake?!"
Both L and Rose hung their heads as the plate was slowly lowered in front of Beyond's face whose scarlet eyes seemed to gleam with mischievousness. "But… she knows how I feel about cake, Light-kun…"
A finger slowly raised and ran along the top of the cake, successfully stealing most of the icing. Beyond gave a crooked smirk as he brough his icing covered finger back towards him, turning around in his chair licking the icing off his finger.
Light blinked a couple of times and tried to choke back his laughter at the serial murderers actions, trying to decide if he was suicidal or brave. L stared at the plate and tapped Roses's hand, "We have a thief among us…"
Rose opened her eyes and narrowed her eyes in anger, "What the fuck?! Who would want just the icing?!"
L shifted an annoyed stare to Beyond who was happily licking the icing from his finger, "You monster…"
Rose gasped and whined out, "Siiix! Beyon –" Rose glared as Six stole some of the icing off Beyond's finger with her own finger. "Really." Rose deadpanned.
Six turned around with an innocent smile, "Hmm?"
Matsuda walked in and stared wide eyed, L was sulking, Rose was shaking Beyond by the collar of his shirt, Six was laughing and Light held his hand over his face while shaking his head, "What? What is going on?"
Beyond smirked, "I stole their icing…" He chuckled in between ravaging shakes.
"You're! You're mean! I hate you, B!"
Matsuda gaped at the sight, "What?"
Light sighed and turned to Matsuda, "When I got here L and Rose were fighting over cake, then, Beyond here decided to take advantage of my scolding them for bickering and stole the icing off the cake, which he shared with Six… Thus starting another fight…" Six shrugged never looking back.
Light sighed and motioned for Matsuda to follow him, "I've been trying too hard not to laugh, but it's getting violent and I think that the justice system wouldn't like receiving a brain dead or worse, a dead, dead Beyond back. Will you help me bring them more cake."
Matsuda chuckled softly and nodded following Light. Light cut more pieces from the cake, "Where is Watari?"
Light shrugged, "Probably hiding in embarrassment." He chuckled and took a couple pieces and Light lifted the other two pieces, they rounded the corner and both audibly sighed. Beyond was laying on the floor staring at the ceiling twitching every now and then. "Now what?!"
Six turned around looking a little unamused, "They bickered some more and Beyond made the sarcastic comment that they shouldn't let their guards down around a serial killer. They shocked him simultaneously." Six rolled her eyes and pulled her pack of cigarettes out, "I suspect he'll be like that for a while."
Matsuda blinked a couple of times, "Like what?"
Six glanced up with an unlit cigarette hanging from her mouth haphazardly, "Unresponsive." She smirked slightly and walked past the two and out the door.
Light sighed and placed a piece of cake in front of L, "Good morning."
L gave Light a tiny smile, "Thank you, Light."
Matsuda slid a piece of cake in front of Rose and kissed her cheek softly, "Sorry they stole your cake…"
Light sighed and started lifting Beyond off the floor, "I'll get him to his room…"
L glanced up, "I'll help."
Light shot him an irritated stare, "I think you've both helped enough…" Light rolled his eyes and lifted Beyond's arm over his shoulder and wrapped his own arm around the raven's waist. He slowly started walking towards his room, he heard Beyond mutter under his breath, "What was that?"
Beyond blinked a couple of times and stared blankly at the hallway, "I said thank you…"
Light smiled softly, "It's whatever. Do you remember what we talked about?"
Beyond nodded, "Six's room. She's disabled the transmitters and speakers."
Light blinked a couple of times, "But… She."
Beyond groaned as he sat him on the bed, "She knows. She's in agreement with me."
Six was leaning against the balcony of her room when she glanced back and walked in. "Do you have it?" Light nodded and handed her the death note. "Dubious dice! You actually did have it!" She looked up and stared impassively at Ryuk, "What the hell is that?" She deadpanned.
Beyond hissed slightly rubbing his wrist, "That. Is a Shinigami. He's been here the whole time."
Light stared at Beyond, "You can see him?"
He nodded silently. "The whole time."
Six sighed, "Surrender it." She turned around reaching into her personal bag.
Light looked back at her, "Uh."
She turned around and held a loaded gun to his head and flicked the safety off, "One of your choices will cause Watari much grief." She stared at him with wicked eyes.
"Whoa! Wasn't that the plan? I forfeit ownership of the death note. I no longer wish to possess it." After blinking a couple of times he backed up form the gun. She shifted her stare to Beyond who stood up slowly, bracing himself on the bed and nodded in confirmation. He limped out of the room and slinked into his.
Six sighed and kicked her trash can outside and tossed the notebook into it before lighting a match, lighting another cigarette and dropping the match on the book. Six stared watching the book burn, "Esti liber, si acum sunt prizonier…"
Light stared at her confused, "Romanian?"
She glanced back at him and nodded, "Romania… It is my home country… Let's go with the others…"
Light hung his head, "What's wrong?"
Six sighed, "Case closed, Light…" She gently nudged him towards the door.
Light looked down, "Oh… But… B…"
She looked down, "It was a sacrifice. For L, so, you looking for a job? You're pretty smart wanna work with me?"
Light laughed, "L offered something similar. I might have already accepted."
She smiled weakly, "Go ahead, I'll catch up." She watched Light walk down the hall and she stood in Beyond's doorway.
He looked away from her, "I'm sorry…"
She sighed and sat next to him, "We give everything to him… I can't help but feel a little resentment."
Beyond sighed sadly, "It was the inevitable… Maybe if I'm good they'll transport me home. Hey!" He nudged her with his shoulder, "MAYBE if I'm really good they'll let me out in fifty years instead of sixty, hmm?"
Six gave him a sad stare, "I love you."
Beyond sighed and hung his head, "I love you, too…"
He glanced up at Six who was pulling him from the bed, "Well. If your leaving. I'm getting laid!"
Beyond stared at her in shock, "I won't argue."
Watari nodded, "Thank you, Warden. Yes, I will make accommodations for his transport, send his file to me please."
