Chapter 2: Plan
Chapter 3: Seven
Light had found everything he needed to know about Kurai, he even took the time to explain to Misa how she had to act as if Kurai was her best friend and that she knew her from modeling. He would be going in two days. He'd told Ryuuzaki that he found Misa's friend online. He glanced at the clock out of nervousness. Hm, it's only 7:35 P.M. It should be going great for him, but he had a bad feeling about this. Uh, must have been that weird food Ryuuzaki gave me to try. I knew it was too sweet. He turned to turn off the light; he really did have a headache. Better go to bed, tomorrow I'll have to pack. I have to find her in three days, and then come back. Oh, the pressure.
"The way I see it, we could persuade her, but that's not so easy if she won't talk to strangers." Mello and Matt had been going over plans for the past half-hour. It was six A.M. Mello's phone rang.
"What the hell?! I keep getting calls from this number. It's the third time this week!" Mello said, frustrated. "Sorry, keep going…"
"Um, infiltrate her school, turn off the main power or set off an alarm, then kidnap her there," Matt suggested.
"Or…" Mello said with a devilish grin. "You could meet her."
Matt's eyes widened. "You couldn't… I mean, uh, what? Are you going to force me to?"
Mello chuckled. "You're nervous. What, don't think you can get out of this! You're the one who mentioned the school, which basically implied that we could get direct contact with her. Thanks for volunteering."
Matt groaned. Mello took his chocolate bar and stood up, facing the door.
"Don't forget; we're leaving in twenty minutes. We'll arrive there at the airport at seven. Now come on." Matt stood and followed Mello out the door, to their room to get the suitcases, then out the door of the apartment. When they came back, everything would be different, Matt knew it.
