New chapter up! Everybody celebrate!
Today's the day. The Task Force is going to come in today. I've tried to make Mello leave, but getting him to leave is just as hard as squeezing water out of a brick. It's in-fucking-possible! Mello's such an ass sometimes!
But you love him!
Your mother never taught you the meaning of shut the fucking hell up, did she?
We're the same person, you dipshit!
Right, mother never taught me the meaning of it...
"Hey, Purity. You seem deep in thought, what's going on?"
"Huh? What... what time is it?"
"Eleven thirty. Why?"
I sighed. "I'm going to go check security," I said, standing up.
I knew what was happening and left before anyone could oppose my statement. Walking up stairs I just had to look out the window. I could see Sidoh, and also Ryuk. I could also see a whole load of gloomy masses in the distance. The police were prepared. But so were we.
I did a double take on the explosives and then went to the security room. I was bored so decided to sing a song was always listening to, 'Just to get High', Nickleback. I needed to sleep, but when I checked my phone, it said two to midnight.
Three...
Two...
One...
I could hear screaming from down stairs and I almost relaxed. Everything was going as planned. I could hear yelling, and I was so calm. I knew this wasn't normal, but since I had seen it so many times, I knew Mello would be fine. He'd be the only survivor, other than me.
Mello burst through the door, panting. Ok, three minutes until Souichirou will get here. I wonder what his face will be like when he finds out I knew how to get here and joined the mafia, all before Sayu was brought home.
Well, we'll find out in ten...
Five...
Two...
One...
And right on cue, Souichirou stormed in though the door. I just started laughing in the dark, he couldn't see me.
"Kya ah ha ha ha ha!" I laughed not caring what was happening. "Well, well. How's Sayu, Souichirou Yagami?"
"Rima Ryuzaki?" he asked, looking around.
"Yes," I said, standing next to Mello. "The one and only."
"You don't have numbers, and your name is blurry," stated the old man. "You own the Death Note."
"Tisk, tisk, tisk, Mr. Yagami. I have the eyes as well, and I'm from another world, as you know."
Then started the very long drawl of 'if you make a move, I will kill you'.
I sighed; I'd seen this too many times before.
"Souichirou, we all know that you are not going to write Mihael's name in that Death Note. And don't ever wonder how your son got those orders from Kira? I'm so happy that you'll die with the naive bliss of not knowing what Light has done for five years now. The eyes will fool you, you know."
"What do you mean? What are you saying?" the old man asked.
"Kya ah ha, I just want your last emotions to be curiosity, questioning, and insecurity."
Then rang the sound of gun shots. Thank shinigami this is over.
"Mels, can I blow this place?" I said as I snatched the remote out of his hand before he could even say anything.
I put my mask on as Mello did. I knew that mask wasn't going to do him any good, but I wasn't going to tell him. Everyone loves that scar. I am not getting rid of that!
Because you think it's hot...
Oh, come on. Even the artist of Death Note thought it was cool!
You read too much...
You sound just like mother!
Right then, the rest of the Task Force stormed in. Matsuda was the first (surprisingly) to recognise me.
"Ri?"
"Bye bye, Matsui!" I said as I pressed the button.
Flames erupted from around me and I felt Mello pull on my arm. I followed into want seemed like a secret passage. I have to say, it was genius. It was the only logical way Mello could get out with burns only to his face, shoulder, and upper back. I briefly wondered about where my burns would end up. I could see the exit, but I could also feel the heat coming from the flames. Mello got out just before I could, but I tripped. I couldn't get up, the exit got in the way. I could feel the flames licking at my legs.
"Lily!" Mello called.
He looked back and saw me, flames licking at me. He ran back and I noticed he already had his mask off, no burns. He leaned into the opening and pulled me out, but not without consequence. The flames took his face.
"You ok?" he asked. I looked into his eyes. The eye on the left side of his face was squeezed shut while the other was tearing up and was wide. I could see an ocean of emotions swimming around. Pain, anger, sadness, worry, and relief.
I looked up at him silently and ripped off a bit of my tank top.
"That's gotta hurt," I said. Since he was sitting next to me, I could easily rap the material around the left side of his face.
"I've got a place we can stay. We should go there," he stated. I nodded and he picked me up.
"What the hell are you doing?!" I squealed.
"You can't walk. The fire burnt you all the way to your stomach," he said as he swung me around to give me a piggy back.
"And you think you're fit to be running with an injured person on your back?! Half your face is burnt!" I yelled as he ran.
I sighed as he didn't respond, and decided to sleep. I haven't slept in days, thinking about today. I must say, Mello's hair is a really comfy pillow. No wonder when he sleeps, he sleeps like a baby.
I eventually woke up when I felt Mello jumping up stairs. When I opened my eyes, I saw what looked like a condo. He pressed a button and someone answered: Who is it?
"Come on, gamer kid. Let us in," Mello shouted.
"Ahh, no. I'm not going to," said 'Gamer Kid'.
I recognised the voice and pressed the button myself and yelled, "Come on, Chain-Mail, let us in."
"Right, Rima. I'll let you in," Matt said, opening the door.
"Please take the elevator, the stairs are annoying," I said to Mello.
"In that case, stairs it is," Mello cheered. I bit him in the head.
"Fucking hell, Lily! Is my hair going to turn red now!?"
"Nah, not if we get to Matt's ASAP," I said. "Now wouldn't the elevator be quicker?"
"I hate you..."
"Right back at 'cha!"
By the time we had reached Matt's door, I had regained some feeling in my right leg. And by 'some feeling', I mean complete and utter pain! Matt was standing by his door.
"You two better get inside. And explain everything later..." he sighed, and Mello walked in.
