Tahlia paced around the room she was left in, feeling more than exhausted. After she had been captured, she was tossed into the back of a car, blindfolded, and then dumped inside this room.

Of course her restraints weren't removed, but after running the metal under cold water for a few minutes and slamming them against the countertop, they easily broke apart. The room she was in was pretty spacious, probably some fancy hotel or another apartment complex. How no one noticed her being brought in was another story, maybe this was some sort of house.

The door was locked from the outside when she tried it, so she walked over to the window. The floor to ceiling mirror to the world gave her a full scale view of the Tokyo night sky. It was absolutely stunning. The height of the building cancelled out any brightness from the city, leaving only the starlight. She basked in the faint light, letting it clear her mind as she checked herself over for any open wounds.

"How did I get myself into this one? Who could I possibly be connected with to lead him to suspect...Misa," Tahlia sighed as she pressed both hands against the glass. Her breath fogged up the window as she released a long sign. Wow, this must be her new thing, it was actually starting to get annoying. That stupid Misa.

"I see the restraints worked well," L said, causing Tahlia's head to hit against the glass. Turning around to face her captor, the girl was met with a pair of large steel eyes. He was standing too close to her, only a few inches separating the two. Tahlia remembered her surprise kiss and felt a small blush creep against her pale skin, now was NOT the time to be getting flustered.

"So are you gonna tell me what's really going on, L," she quipped, her eyes smiling slightly at his surprised look, "Yeah, you should tell that young guy to keep his mouth shut. I heard everything on the way over.

"Your suspicion of being an accomplice has raised to 5%," he said without breaking his stare.

"If I was working with Kira, don't you think I would have killed you already," she pushed past him, trying to escape his owl-like gaze.

"Maybe you need a face and a name to kill. Obviously L is not my real name," he said still facing the spot she previously occupied. Tahlia let her eyes trail down his body, he couldn't have been older than herself, so how did he have so much influence over these people?

"Clearly," she growled, "So what is it you do exactly, you some kind of cop in training?" He looked amused at her question, turning around to face the girl full on.

"Who are you," she asked again, "I really don't wanna have to kick your ass again."

"If you had 'kicked my ass' then you wouldn't be here, now would you. I am L."

"Yeah, I heard that part already," she interrupted him, enjoying his annoyed look, "So what?"

He looked perplexed, so what? No one had ever had that reaction before. Did she not know who he was, or was she that ignorant?

"So what," he murmured, now being watched by a pair of unblinking green eyes that slowly lit up with realization.

"Oh," she said quietly, "I remember. You're the cocky guy leading the Kira investigation. Looks like things sure are getting quite interesting, now aren't they?"

"Quite interesting indeed," L said as he looked at the girl with pure curiosity.

So interesting.
