Disclaimer- The Shinigami world, Ninja world and other worlds may collide, but they are not of mine
Well the third one is up and running people!
Even mosquito bites won't stop me!-scratches everywhere-they burn!!
Don't let them win!
While I fight them back, you just pull up a chair, crack open a soda can (or beverage of your choice), and watch it come.
Chappy 3
The Chibi, The L, The War?
No she was not imagining it. There in the Hokage's room he stood. Him.
L, the greatest detective in the world. L, the one man that had brought many criminals to justice. L, her big brother.
Chibi's mouth hung wide open as she had said the one word (letter.) What was L doing here? Shouldn't he be doing that one case he was working on?
…And why was L looking at her like that?
L, his coal black eyes wide, stared at Chibi. To the untrained, L might simply just be staring at a young seventeen year old, but Chibi knew that look. L was reprimanding her.
But for what?
Her eyes widened in realization. 'Oh, crap' she thought. She had called him L! Her mind raced to find an excuse but she was drawing up a blank. 'Maybe the Hokage will ask me what I called him and then I'll say nothing' she thought. Usually when people don't believe the things they heard they ask again what the person had said to make sure…L had told her that. To her dismay that was not what Naruto asked.
"How do you know L?" the Hokage asked rising from his desk.
L shifted his gaze to the Hokage. Chibi saw something in L's eyes. Disbelief? Why?
"Please refrain from using that name. If she was an enemy and just believed that I resembled the famous L, you would have just confirmed her thoughts," L explained. At this Naruto comprehended his mistake and nodded to L.
"Please call me Ryuzaki" L stated. Again Naruto nodded. Sasuke had made his way back to the Hokage's side. Chibi had thought that her little mistake was forgotten. But that Uchiha had to kill it.
"So would you please explain how you know the detective?" Sasuke asked. Chibi had not come up with an excuse. Luckily, being the smartest brother's sister, L spoke first.
"It does not matter how she knows me, we had wasted enough time," the detective said, but when he saw the distrust in the elder ninjas eyes he sighed, "But I will explain none the less. I met the young lady in one of the cities I was staying."
"But we never go into the cities. We try not to interfere with their way of living" Sasuke automatically responded.
"Yes, I try to do the same with your villages. Many do not even know of our existence because of the well job you do in hiding your locations" Ryuzaki complimented. A little flattery doesn't hurt. "But the man that I was hired to catch was one of your kind. I believe he was skilled in capturing people with bee wax or something to that extent. Of course I was the only one who figured it out so I was determined to catch him. I was trailing him but lost him as ninjas are very quick. That's around the time this young lady," the raven haired man pointed to Chibi, "noticed that I was following one of your targets as well. She was suspicious of me but I quickly explained the details. She wouldn't believe me so I found no alternative than to tell her who I am. She still found me untrustworthy but I convinced her to look at all the facts I had showed her to prove I am indeed L. She is very smart by the way; you have brought up a nice ninja here."
More flattery.
"I told her where I believed the ninja's hideout was and she went to capture him. She promised not to tell anyone else of meeting me and I'm glad she held her part on that until now. For that I am grateful," L bowed his head slightly towards the open-mouthed teen. Chibi just kept looking at him. He scratched his left leg with his right foot.
'He came up with that in just 2 seconds?' she thought.
"I see. Well, usually you report things like that Chibi" Sasuke scolded her, "but I think this time we can let that one slide."
"Now let's get to business," Naruto said clasping his hands together. Chibi finally closed her mouth but not before she let out a sigh of relief. She had made a mistake, and if weren't for L she would have been in huge trouble.
"So what's the mission?" Chibi asked recalling what the Hokage had told her.
At this everyone seemed to tense a little.
"First let me ask you something," the Hokage started, "Have you heard of the recent deaths that have been going on lately?"
Chibi nodded. She had wondered about the sudden ninjas falling left and right, dying of heart attacks. She had thought it to be some sort of drug being implanted into the unsuspecting enemy by another. But the medical nin had said no such thing was in the deceased bodies.
"Today, as Sasuke's group was following their target, the opponent fell to the ground clutching his chest. He died of a heart attack, the sixth ninja this month to die," Naruto got up from his chair, a sure sign that the main point was about to be revealed. The blond Hokage looked at the new slouching man that stood in the office. Ryuzaki locked gazes with the ninja leader and nodded.
"But the ninja world isn't the only one being targeted. These types of deaths are going around the world. Already eighteen, excluding the ninjas, were announced dead of cardiac arrest. I was hired to solve this case but I find myself in need of assistance" L looked at the attentive teen. He saw the many questions forming in her head and continued to talk before she asked any of them.
He looked beyond the Hokage outside the windows. "This is the work of a special group. At first I thought that the person worked alone, that is when deaths were announced in different cities and countries where the first two crimes occurred." Suddenly the mood had darkened. Chibi felt it and absentmindedly rubbed her arms. The detective continued.
"This is not what troubles me. If it were a group I would still have gone with this case alone but circumstances require for me to fight fire with fire…" L paused for a moment. He moved his head to once again lay eyes on Chibi.
"The group is made up of ninjas as well," the detective revealed. Chibi's eyes widened. Shocked at first but soon her features showed that she was confused.
"Yes I know what you are thinking. Usually, ninjas try to avoid working with anyone that isn't one. But that is for honor bound ninjas. Criminals don't care as long as they have power," L said, as he raised his thumb to his mouth and bit. The elder ninjas looked at each other when the detective did that action. They found it odd but then again everything about this man was odd.
"This group's purpose is not yet revealed for twenty of the twenty-four were mass criminals. Two committed petty crimes while the other two were…" it seemed as though the detective was at a loss for words. This was not the case; Ryuzaki just didn't know how to describe these two victims. He stopped all together and just carried on.
"I have gathered a few more capable of this mission. Of course you get to choose whether or not to partake on this mission, regardless of what your usual say on missions. The purpose of this special group is to look for the enemies that have hidden in certain locations that I have discovered. From what I gathered, those are just look out posts. But if we could catch one of them then perhaps we could get useful information." Ryuzaki looked at everyone in the room.
"This is not just a fight of humans anymore. It is the fight with every single being that exist. But there are only two sides. The good and the evil…" the raven haired man took out what appeared to be a lollipop from his pocket and popped it into his mouth,
"…This is now war."

Far away, somewhere deep inside a mountain cave where a room was made, a young man sighed in defeat as he wrote inside a notebook. A voice behind the young man chuckled in delight.
"You know, you're practically askin' for a war" it said chuckling.
The young man solemnly nodded.
"I know."

To be Continued
Author's Notes:
And so the purpose is revealed!
Yesh I know another short chappy! But this time I didn't want it to be short! It was supposed to be lo0o0ong. But then I felt that where L spoke would be a good place to end (lotsa dialog here)
I added the small part in the end to set up my next chappy.
So everything is running smoothly as planned.
Lie. I will tell you now. I have nothing planned. I'm just writing this as I go along cuz I love it when inspiration hits you and you just write the first thing that pops into your mind. P
I wrote this with the hopes of drifting my thoughts away from the stupid mosquito bites that plague me.
I worked! To an extent.
Oh well. Hope you enjoyed this short chappy.
In the next one guess who makes an appearance? –smiles-
L: I can take a guess
Me: No! –Jumps on L- -covers his mouth- of course you know! You probably knew even before I did!
L:-muffled words-
Well another successful night. Almost one o' clock again.
I wonder why I always write at night. Vampire blood? XP
Well hope you likey
To review is to love.
-yunie
p.s-sorry for any mistakes
