The next few days consisted in Hikari having a photo shoot while learning parts for an upcoming small film. She had to admit that it wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. It was a very busy job, but still fun, none the less. Soon after Hikari was hired, Ryuuzaki had Wedy set up surveillance and wire taps all over the building, especially in the head board room of the building.

After finishing up for the day, she was introduced to Mr. Hana's son. "Mina, I would like you to meet my son—" Mr. Hana began.

"Kenichi Hana," the man next to him spoke, reaching her hand and kissing it. This made Hikari blush a little, but she managed to regain her composure. "It's a pleasure to meet the gorgeous Mina Hikaru," he finished with a smile. He was possibly in his early twenties maybe a little older, very attractive. He was tall with dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. Sharply dressed and well groomed much like his father.

"The pleasure is mine," Hikari replied. She had a weird feeling in the pit of her stomach, a strange feeling telling her to stay away from this guy. He seemed way too nice. She pushed the idea out of her head thinking that she was just being paranoid about having every person she met here being a suspect.

They continued to talk until the man received a phone call. He excused himself then walked off as he answered the call. Mr. Hana left soon after, following his son after saying good bye to Hikari and Matsuda.

"Well, he seems nice," Matsuda said.

"Yeah . . . A little too nice," she murmured as she continued to watch the young man.

"Huh? What?" Matsuda asked, not hearing her clearly.

"Nothing. It's getting late and I'm tired. Let's go," Hikari said with a yawn.

Matsuda nodded, "Yeah," he walked of towards the car with Hikari following behind.

"So, which one of those two do you think is Kira?" Kaito asked Hikari, knowing good and well she couldn't answer him. However, that wasn't why he had asked her. He only said it as a clue to help her with the case.

'Between those two? So it's definitely between Mr. Hana and his son. Thanks Kaito, that really helps out, I'll give you a piece of candy later,' Hikari thought.

Hikari was sitting at one of the computers, looking up records on Mr. Hana and his son. 'There has to be something here that can clue me in to which one is more likely to be Kira. Huh? That's odd . . . Mr. Hana is a known Kira supporter while his son is the total opposite. That would lean it more toward Mr. Hana, but he's too nice to be a killer? Arg, that's what they want you to think. Focus Hikari! Ok . . .' she was snapped from her thoughts when she heard her name called.

"Hikari?"

"Huh? Yes, Ryuuzaki?"

"You alright? You look a little stressed," he told her.

"Yeah, I'm fine, guess just a little tired, but other then that perfectly fine," she replied with a fake smile. He wasn't really satisfied with her reply, but didn't persist in asking her. He knew that if something was wrong she would admit it when she was ready. He turned back to his computer as a W appeared on the screen.

"Ryuuzaki?" Watari said from the computer.

"Yes, Watari. What is it?" he replied.

"Eraldo Coil just received a private request to investigate and reveal the identity of L," Watari answered.

"I see," Ryuuzaki said, not even remotely shocked by this news.

"Eraldo Coil? Isn't he the second greatest detective in the world? Right after L, himself?" Mr. Yagami asked.

"Who made that request?" Light asked.

"The man who sought out Coil's services was Co-producer at Hana Productions, Mr. Ichiro Takeshi," Watari explained.

"This adds even more proof that Hana Productions is linked with Kira," Matsuda spoke. Hikari just listened as she thought back to when she met all of the producers.

"This isn't good, we're already limited as it is and no w we have to worry about Coil, too," Mr. Yagami said. Ryuuzaki just continued to eat his usual sweets as if nothing was wrong. Hikari was starting to wonder how the hell he could act so calm when someone was trying hard to reveal his identity.

"No, it's quite alright. The detective known as Eraldo Coil is me," Ryuuzaki replied casually. Hikari just stared at him while everyone else was taken by surprise. "It's quite simple really. Three of the greatest detectives in the world: L, Coil, and Danuve. They're all actually me. It's been my experience that people who try to find me usually fall for this," he finished.

"Impressive as always, Ryuuzaki," Light said.

"So, what will you do about Mr. Takeshi?" Hikari asked.

"Good question," Ryuuzaki spoke, tossing a strawberry into his mouth. He swallowed, "I will have Aiber act as Coil, he'll contact Takeshi and discuss the terms for him investigating the identity of L," he continued to explain as he poured chocolate syrup onto his bowl full of ice cream and sprinkles. Hikari swore Kaito was about to go nuts and take it from Ryuuzaki.

"Hikari, I need sugar. It's been so long since I've last had anything sweet," Kaito said to her as he drooled, watching Ryuuzaki consume the dessert.

'Geez, Kaito! Close your mouth. I swear you and Ryuuzaki make me sick to my stomach sometimes. You with your drooling over his desserts and Ryuuzaki with his continuous sweet consumption.' Hikari thought then sighed.

After Ryuuzaki finished with all his explanations, Hikari went up to her room, stopping by the kitchen first for something to eat. Leaving the kitchen she took a small chocolate bar with her. Once confined in her room, she set the chocolate on the small table, "There Kaito, that's for that little hint you gave me earlier," she whispered to the shinigami.

He chuckled, "I was hoping you would catch that," he told her as he grabbed the chocolate. Hikari sighed then made her way to her bathroom to take a shower.

Hikari returned from Hana Productions at her usual time, walking in after Matsuda in an unusually slow pace. Ryuuzaki watched her as she flopped down onto the sofa, seeing her expressionless look. He sighed knowing that it was because what had happened earlier.

"A-a date?" Hikari acting as Mina asked as she looked at Kenichi Hana who stood before her with an attractive smile that sent a chill down her spine and not in a good way in her opinion.

He chuckled, "Why yes, that is if you aren't busy, let's say tomorrow?" he asked.

She stood there a moment, seeming as if she was thinking over her decision when in actuality she was listening to Ryuuzaki through her ear piece. "Hikari, this is completely your decision. As much as I would like to admit that this could help us get a step closer to Kira, I don't want you forced into a dangerous situation. Think over all your options before making your final decision," Ryuuzaki spoke to her. She took a deep breath, deciding what she would do.

"Sure, I won't be too busy tomorrow. Sounds great," she replied to the man.

"Hikari, you alright? You seem a bit nervous," Ryuuzaki asked her.

"She's probably nervous about that date," Matsuda spoke, snickering.

Hikari let out a frustrated growl and hit him upside the head, "Can it, Matsu!" she snapped at him, crossing her arms as she closed her eyes, trying to clear her mind. Matsuda stood up from the couch and sat down on the other one, trying to keep himself from getting hit again.

"Heh-heh, sorry, Hikari," he said, scratching his head nervously.

"Well, someone has a temper tonight," Light mocked. She growled again, glaring at Light.

"Light, I really don't think that is a good ide-" Ryuuzaki began only to be cut off by Hikari.

"You want some, too?" she asked clinching her fist up at Light. With that she rose to her feet and left the room.

"Whoa, scary," Kaito chuckled then followed behind her.

"Wow, I've never seen her like that before," Light said. He felt the pull of the chain and looked to Ryuuzaki, only to find himself chained to a chair, "Hey?! Ryuuzaki, where are you going?"

"I'll be back, don't go anywhere, Light," Ryuuzaki replied as he walked towards the elevator with his hands in his pockets.

"Where exactly do you think I will go with a chair following me?" Light questioned but only received the closing of the elevator door as an answer.

Hikari sighed laying down on the couch in her room. Her eyes gazed up to the ceiling, unaware of the presence in her room. "There's no reason for you to be nervous," a voice spoke to her. Her eyes shifted over to the chair across the room, seeing Ryuuzaki sitting there, looking at her.

She sat up, "I'm not nervous," she proclaimed.

"Are you trying to prove that to me or yourself?" he asked, placing his thumb against his lips.

He looked at him fro a moment and sighed as she looked to the ground, "both, I guess," she admitted softly.

"Yes, I do believe I had a feeling you'd say that. So, what, if I may ask, are you so nervous about?" he asked, observing her as he awaited her reaction.

"Well . . . I know it sounds stupid, but I guess I'm just nervous about that date. I'm just not really comfortable around people I can't exactly trust," she admitted.

"Ah, I see, but if you were aware of this why did you agree with the date to begin with?" he asked.

"Isn't it obvious? I want to do whatever I can to stop Kira, Ryuuzaki; even if that means dating a complete stranger to find out who Kira is. In the end it will all be worth it," she said, her eyes still looking to the ground, but a small smile played at her lips. Her eyes looked from the floor to the detective, "Thank you, Ryuuzaki," she told him, still smiling.

He tilted his head to the side, "For what?" he asked her innocently.

"For helping me clear my mind, giving me someone to talk to, thank you for that," she told him.

"You're welcome, I'm glad to be of some help," he replied as he stood up. He started toward the door, "Better get back before Light begins whining about being chained to a chair," he said. Hikari giggled at his statement, imagining that little scenario in her head.

"Hey, um, Ryuuzaki?"

"Hmm, yes?"

"Do you really still believe Light could be Kira, even after everything that's happened?" she asked. He turned to her, not really sure where that question came from.

"Yes, I do still believe that. I know that it's hard for you to really accept that possibility considering he's a friend, but something is telling me that I'm not wrong in suspecting him. Why do you ask, anyway?" he asked.

"Uh-no reason, I was just wondering," she stated. He seemed satisfied with that answer and continued back to the main room, shutting Hikari's door behind him. Hikari sighed as she looked back to the ceiling.

"You want to tell him the truth, don't you?" Kaito spoke from the corner of the room.

'I only wish he knew how right he was,' she thought to herself, not answering Kaito.

I know she should tell him so that the truth can finally be revealled and all that but that's just too easy and the stroy would end way too fast. So I'm going to torture people a little longer. Oh and I just couldn't resist handcuffing Light to a chair and for some reason I can imagine him walking around, dragging the chair behind him. As much as I hate him sometimes, poor Light. Anywhoo, you know what to do... Review :3 hey that rhymed!... Ok, I'm gonna shut up now...
