Chapter 11: It's Not Over

"You want me to be happy?" Luna asked

"Yes" Beyond replied

"Then stop acting like this."

"What do you mean?"

"Stop being all sentimental and stuff. I don't like it."

Beyond smiled "Sorry"

Luna looked at BB and took a few steps forward, then a bit shyly pulled him into a kiss. When they broke apart Luna told him "I love you okay"

"Did you really have to say it that way?"

"Did you expect any different?"

"Yes actually"

Luna sighed then mockingly replied "It's like you don't know me at all!"

Beyond snickered and pulled Luna to him and kissed her again. "I think I could get use to this"

"Me too" Luna told him

They both frowned a little because they knew that things wouldn't stay like this. Beyond pulled Luna to the floor with him and held her close. They both soon fell asleep.

~Back at the asylum~

"Yes I'm sorry, but it seems he escaped" The grey/brown haired woman spoke through the receiver

"I see" L replied 'Of all the stupid things" he thought to himself then added "Keep searching and contact me immediately if anything happens"

"Yes" the woman replied and hung up the phone. 'I could get fired for this. The asylum could be shut down' she thought.

L stared at the phone he hung up. They seemed like a promising place to keep BB, and yet this happens. Not to mention this is during the Kira case. This case made him think of Luna and BB, and what Nova had told him (She might have spilled everything).' If what Nova told me is true, which I don't know if it is, and shinigami do exist then the eyes the second Kira mentioned could be shinigami eyes. Sadly, if shinigami do exist I do not know, nor do I understand anything about them. Except that apparently according to Kira they like apples, but that helps with nothing' L thought

~Back with Beyond and Luna~

Beyond looked at Luna's now sleeping form. For the past hour they had just been lying there comfortable with each other's presence. He really did love her and he knew she loved him, but she didn't seem to realize her feelings weren't as strong for him as they were for L. Somehow L captured her heart long ago, and his grasp never left. Luna would always love him and L, which he could tell she hated herself for. He gently kissed her forehead; he wanted to hold her for the rest of their time together. Though by the loudness of the bells in his head now he knew it wouldn't be long. He wondered what would happen when a shinigami dies, unlike Luna he had never seen a shinigami before. Also, knowing he was not a full shinigami he wondered if it would be different. Shaking his head he put those thoughts out of mind. Luna wouldn't want him thinking like that. She wants him to be happy too. Beyond soon drifted off to sleep. Luna awoke around 4am she guessed from the amount of light. Flicking on her phone it was indeed 4:12 am, but what woke her up she wondered. Slowly she slide away from BB and went to the window. Peeking out she saw patrol men walking inside. That was not good at all. They were in a two story abandoned warehouse and they were on the second floor, but the policemen would be there soon if they didn't get out. Luna quickly awoke Beyond and urged him to be quiet and led him to the other side of the building. Peeking out she saw more police. She then led BB to the stairwell which reached the roof and quickly walked up them with BB close behind. "We have to be quiet okay?" Luna told him.

BB nodded and quietly followed Luna then turned to him "How good at jumping sorta long distances are you?"

"I guess I'm fine, why?" Beyond asked cautiously

"Well we have to jump and we need to do it like right now" Luna told him locking the door to the roof

That would stop the policemen momentarily. Beyond nodded uncertainly "Okay"

Luna gripped Beyond's hand "Stay with me okay?"

BB nodded and they both ran and jumped BB looked down momentarily and started to panic, but they landed on the other roof no problem. They continued running and jumping for a while until they saw no more policemen. Luna then found a drain pipe and they slide down into an alley and made their way to the main street. Before they got there Luna stopped BB and handed him a hoodie. BB looked at her questioningly "Put it on. It will be harder to notice you"

Beyond nodded "When did you get this?"

"You don't pay much attention. I've had it with me just in case we had to do something like this" Luna explained.

"You are very prepared" Beyond commented putting on the hoodie

"I mess with police for a living. What did you expect?"

Beyond snickered and they made it to the main street. For being four in the morning lots of people were out, which in this case was good, they could blend into the crowd. After about fifteen minutes Luna pulled BB to when an apartment building was and pulled out a key opening one of the doors and urged him inside. "What is this place?" Beyond asked

"It's a friend's place. She gave me a key to use whenever I want." Luna told him then looking at him momentarily added "I have to check on something. I'll be back. Stay here"

She then left the apartment to a car lot across the way which was three stories high. Luna walked to her Chevelle and opened it up checking her security system. She pulled out her phone and clicked a button. "Yes" came the female voice of her friend

"Candice, you're going to have to be my thief counterpart for a while longer" Luna told her

"Is that so?"

"If you still want to that is. I mean I could take a vacation"

"No it's fine. I'll do it"

"Okay, just be careful and don't get caught, and if you do don't give them your real name"

"Okay"

"Goodbye Candice"

"Goodbye Lu"

Luna hung up the phone and walked back into the apartment. "Everything okay?" Beyond asked

"Yea"

Beyond suddenly clutched his head and feel to the ground "Beyond are you okay?" Luna asked pulling him into her lap.

"Sorry, the bells are really loud"

Luna shook her head "You'll be fine" she urged

Beyond reached up and touched a hand to her face "It's okay. I.. I'm okay, I knew this would happen"

"No, you can't die on me, not now. Not when we just got here. Not when you're back" Luna told him

"We'll see each other again I promise" Beyond told her and gasping in pain gripped his chest

"Beyond no…Please don't go. Don't leave me" Luna pleaded, but it was too late his heart stopped beating

His body then crumpled into dust. 'Just like a normal shinigami' Luna thought. "You're right" She said to the air around her "I'll make sure we see each other again. I know what I must do now" She said as the dust disappeared completely.

Luna left the apartment and locked the door. She reached her car and drove of down a few streets to come to a stop in front of a car garage. She got out of the car and banged on the door "I know you're in there"

The door opened and a boy named Riley smiled at her "Hey Lu"

Luna looked at him and handed him the keys to her car, as well as a notebook. "I have a few ideas"

Riley smiled and led her inside. "I have to leave though"

Riley nodded "Alright" he then pulled a tarp off of a motorcycle and added "You may want to use your other "baby" that I finished yesterday"

Luna smiled "Thanks Riley"

He gave her the key and she sped off on the bike clearly on a mission. It certainly wasn't over. This was just beginning. This was the start of something she needed to do, not only for herself, but her family(friends) as well.
