Chapter 8: Whammy's
Kurai woke up on a bed in an airy room. She sat up and saw both Mello and Matt playing cards. Matt looked over.
"Good morning!" He said brightly.
"What is it with you guys making me wake up in random places?" She joked.
"He he, come join us!"
She stood up, and walked past the window, stepping on the light wood floor. Hm, I guess the whole room has a great atmosphere. Or maybe it's just because Mello isn't glaring. She glanced at Mello, his brilliant eyes focused on the game in front of him.
She was getting along with Matt, but Mello didn't seem to like her… This troubled her. She sat on the bench next to Matt, facing Mello. Suddenly Mello tensed when he realized Kurai was staring at him, he was about to tell her to-
"Good morning, everyone. I see you boys did indeed bring along a friend," said a man, sighing. He was just an average forty something man.
"Hey Roger," Matt said, shuffling the deck, "Why did you want to see us?"
"Can you come to the next room? Um, you, do you know about Kira?" Roger asked Kurai.
"Yes. Personally, I hope L wins."
"Alright, then I can tell you too."
They all went to the next room while Kurai asked Matt where they were. "Whammy's," he replied. She smiled. Guess it isn't "England" anymore.
Once they were in the room, and after Roger closed the door, he faced them solemnly, and spoke.
"I'm sure you know that the current L is a fake, but-"
"Uh huh, a second L, we know. Just like a second Kira." Mello interrupted.
"Yes, as I was saying, but L, he's still alive."
"He just temporarily gave the title to someone else," Kurai spoke up. Roger gasped.
"How did you know this?!"
"I, uh… don't know. I just guessed." She said, uncomfortable that everyone was staring at her. That answer didn't seem to satisfy Roger. He still dismissed them though.
"Since you promised to stay here, here are your new schedules; I made sure Kurai has every class with either one of you, so she won't get lost. You may leave now."
