Hey, new chappie, im going to try my best to keep up, but with all my activities my reaction times may go back down, lol.

(Reminder) At this point all we know is that:

1. L has a new GF who's name is Koi

2. Koi was involved with Beyond Birthday, and it has something to do with a secret.

3. Near, Mello, and Matt all knew Beyond.

4. L is an adorable little sweet eating panda god ^_^


Thump thump thump.

What the hell...Mello thought, still warm beneath his blanket.

Thump thump thump.

The sound was getting closer.

Thump thump thump.

His door swung open to reveal a very excited looking Matt, who dove on top of him.

"L'S BAAAACK!" the redhead yelled, pounding on Near's wall.

"L's home! L's back!! Wake up, dude! We gotta go see him!" Matt yelled, shaking Mello. Mello did his best to act like he didnt care, but it didn't work. Soon, three happy (albeit disheveled) boys ran to greet a very content L.

"L! You're home!" Matt yelled, throwing his hands in the air. Near jumped up and down, tugging on his shirt.

"L, are you gonna stay awhile? What about your cases? Can I help with one?" Near asked. L smiled at the two boys' excitement, patting each on the head.

"My my, aren't we excited. And where is Mello? Didn't I just see him?" L said, winking at the woman behind him. Mello smiled to himself, watching from around the corner. They usually played this game, and though L knew exactly where he was, he indulged Mello in the game. The woman behind him giggled. covering the only part of her face that was visible, her mouth. L sighed loudly.

"Seems I'll have to eat all this chocolate by myself then..." he said with fake drama. Mello's eyes widened. Man, L was cheating this time! His mouth watered at the thought of that gormet chocolate, and he just couldn't stand it anymore. He ran around the corner and baisicly tackled L.

"I missed you, now where is that chocolate?" Mello asked, searching thru the detective's pockets. L chuckled.

"Seems I won this time," he said, stroking the boy's hair affectionatly. He gave Mello the chocolate bar, Near the doll, and Matt the laptop, recieving hushed thank you's from each. He then turned to the woman.

"Boys, this is Koi." he said softly. The woman pulled the hood down off her head, and the boy's couldn't help but make a double take.

She looked alot like L. She was pretty, but like, if L was a pretty girl pretty.

"Well, I can see this was a complete act of narcissisim to date her." Near stated plainly. The woman laughed.

"You know, he has a point," she said, laughing. Mello looked at the girl again.

"Well, I think she's real pretty. " Mello said, taking a huge chunk of the choclate in his mouth. Matt looked at her as well.

"Yeah, I like her eyes." He said. Near only lifted his nose.

"She seems like she'll be more trouble than she's worth."

The girl's smile faltered.

"Perhaps, at least, for the time being....I should stay at a hotel?" she said softly. L looked at her.

"No, that's quite alright. Near is simply doing what I have always taught him to do. Be suspicious of everyone and everything." L gave her a reassuring pat on the back. "Don't worry, it's just as we were taught." Koi nodded.

"Of course." she said softly. She reached into her bag and pulled out a small carving of a woman.

"Here, accept it as a peace offering." she said, smiling at Near. Near took the doll, but eyed it as though it were to explode.

"Thank you."

An uncomfortable silence settled, with tension building between Koi's now dim smile and Near's hardend gaze. L smiled, seemingly oblivious.

"So, who want's dinner?" He asked cheerfully. Koi laughed.

"Don't you mean dessert?" she teased. L closed his eyes.

"Mmmm, yes, the best part of dinner!" he said, patting his amazingly flat stomach. All but Near laughed and headed for the dining hall, as Near clutched the little wooden woman in his fist.

"Koi, I am watching you..." he muttered, sticking the doll in his pocket.


Near: She's gonna be trouble...

L: Near be Nice....

BB: I'm comming! AHAHAHAHA

L: CANT YOU FUCKING GET THAT YOU'RE IN JAIL?!?!?

BB: Little Bunny BB hoppin thru the forest, Going up to Wammy's and killing them in their beds.
