Beyond stared at L's body as it lay on the pavement. Things were starting to get cold and clouds were forming. Small rain drops started to fall. Beyond had seen so many bodies before and never paid attention but here he was with L's corpse and he couldn't move. He watched as the pool of black blood under L's head expanded. He watched the rain mix with it. The rain started to fall heavily now. What was once Oristonia's body was now starting to wash into the gutter. Beyond walked over to the pile of sand and started to kick it. "You bitch!! What've you done? You've killed my only friend! That's what you've done!" Beyond started to pull his soaking wet hair and screamed in the rain. He knew nobody could hear him scream but he wanted them to. He looked over at L and ran to him. "Lawliet! Wake up!" he screamed banging on L's chest. L's black blood was starting to wash away in the rain. Beyond tried all he could think of. He tried slapping him, shaking him, yelling at him but nothing worked.

"Why are you doing this to me you bastard? Isn't it enough that you abandoned me in life? Now you're abandoning me in death too. You selfish bastard! It was always what you want you never gave a toss about me. I did everything you wanted and what have you ever done for me? Nothing, that's what, why?! Cos you're a selfish prick!" Beyond stroked the feathers on L's wings. He felt something stirring inside him and he started to cry. His red tears were washed by the rain. He was soaked to the bone but didn't want to leave. He ran his fingers threw his dripping wet hair. His blood red tears dripped down his face. He licked his lips and could taste the blood. L's body was still bleeding. The rain ran black with his blood. Beyond cradled L's head. In his arms and started to rock back and forth. He hugged L's corpse close to him. "Come back to me" he kept whispering to the body as he wept.

The rain poured down harder and as it rained harder Beyond cried harder. His tears of blood fell onto L staining his skin. Beyond's tears covered L's face. The bloody tears started to run into L's mouth. Beyond kept crying and then a very familiar voice said softly.

"She ain't so tough without her heads is she?" Beyond gasped and opened his eyes. He looked down at L who just smiled. His face was red with Beyond's tears. Beyond suddenly remembered when he first became a shinigami:

21st January 2004

"…and that's about it. Remember though you were destined to be a shinigami but you were born a human. You will still have certain human trends. Any questions?"

"Aside from a shinigami falling in love with a human is there any other scenario in which a shinigami dies?"

"It is possible for a shinigami to kill another shinigami in a battle but this is rare and is also punishable by death."

"What happens to the shinigami after its dead?"

"I don't know but I can tell you that the only way that a shinigami would ever get to live again is if another shinigami cried for them but shinigami never cry. They can't."

"Then why did you tell me that?"

"You'll understand one day Beyond"

He knew, Armonia Justin knew that this would happen thought Beyond. "This was to remind myself of my basic humanity" he said to himself

"What?"

"Humans are the only creatures able to cry. This is what Armonia Justin meant when he said to me that I'd understand. A shinigami can only be brought back to life if another shinigami cries for it but shinigami never cry. Only humans cry."

"Beyond I have no idea what the heck you're talking about but my head is killing me and I want to go home" said L with a confused expression on his face. Beyond smiled.

"Yeah let's go home." Said Beyond picking up Oristonia's death note.

Back in the shinigami realm L & Beyond sat around a fire. The fire in the shinigami realm had a blue flame. Armonia Justin had left the two in charge of destroying Oristonia's death note. Beyond turned to L. "Do you want to do the honours?" he asked handing L the death note

"Hell yeah, that bitch killed me" L chuckled and dropped the death note in the fire. As soon as he dropped it in the fire the sound of Oristonia's scream shot out as it burnt. Ghosts started to pour out of the fire moaning. The scream echoed and filled the realm until the death note was completely burnt. Everything was quiet, neither L or Beyond said anything they just stared at the fire with the exact same smirk on their faces.

A/N: YAY!! Shinigami L lived. The chapters called 'Requiem' because I was listening to one of Mozart's requiems while writing it lol. Sorry there was no BB & L trying to take down Kira but I promise the third one and any after that will have. You'll see why when I've written the third.

That is if you still want to read more of The Shinigami ChronicLes. Luv ya all.
