Ch. 2
Are you kidding me? No! It can't be true! L cannot be part of one of the greatest rock bands in the world! It's just not possible! I mean… he's L! Raito Yagami was now officially wigging out. He was the number one student in Japan and he was having major trouble excepting the fact that the most awkward and insensitive guys he knew was the famous lead singer and rhythmic guitar player of Dikephobia.
It just didn't seem possible. But yet, here he stood with the other three members of the band talking and saying that they were getting back together. Now that he looked at them, they did look like the other members except older. Even L looked like the lead singer except older. How was this possible?
And on another note what the hell did L think he was doing getting back together with his band in the middle of the Kira Case. Was it some type of insane plan to catch Kira? It didn't make sense. Wait…
"Ryuzaaki, I'm glad that you and your band are getting back together, but what about the Kira Case?" asked Raito. L looked at him and cocked his head to the side in confusion.
"Do you think I am not capable of solving the Kira Case and recording a CD at the same time? I did it when I was a teen. I think I can do it again, don't you?" questioned L
"Ryuzaaki, I don't think my son doubts your capability, but why you decided to get back together with your band right now confuses all of us." Soichiro stepped in.
L 'hmmmmed' before stating that he wrote songs to get out some of his feelings during the case and ended up writing a whole CD and wished to record it.
It was clear that most of the task force wasn't to happy about L decision to start up his band again in the middle of one of the biggest cases in all of history, but sense he was in charge of all of their pay checks they didn't complain. At least not out loud.
Raito on the other hand could care less if this slowed down the case. The only thing that concerned him was what Ryuzaaki was planning with this whole thing, and Ryuzaaki was planning something. He knew it. Just what was it that he was planning? He didn't know.

The next week was spent with Raito and L at the computer working on the case while also listening to Devon, Charles, and Ed get there parts down. It was apparent that they were all geniuses too, as they almost always got it down the first time.
Though Raito did think it was weird that L never Practiced with them, so one afternoon when they were listening to the band practice he voiced his concern.
"Well Raito-kun, I already know my part."
Uggggg! L is so infuriating sometimes! Wait…sometimes? What am I thinking? L is infuriating ALL the time!
As Raito continued to rant about L in his head he missed something vital. L was staring at him. He couldn't help it. He loved it when Raito would go of into his own little world. The way he looked was so adorable.
What L had said to the task force about the songs conveying his feelings about the Kira Case was true. They did show how he truly felt, though some were kind of coded, it was how he felt. L's favorite song was the last one on the CD. It was called Rain. But in his own private folder on his laptop were all the songs were originally written, L had nicknamed it Light's Lullaby. I guess you could say L was sappy, but he didn't care. Raito was the first person he had ever loved besides the people at the orphanage, but even that love didn't compare to the love he felt for Raito. That was something completely different and L knew it could be his downfall, knew that if Raito didn't feel anything for him, not even friendship, then L would die. But once again, L didn't care.

This afternoon was to be Dikephobia's first recording session and Raito was quit interested in what the songs were going to be. Raito was only in elementary when Dikephobia first came out and though he was young he found there music quit enjoyable.
Their music could be hard and fast at times, but at other times it could be slow and soft. They could be dirty and foulmouthed, or romantic and sweet. It amazed Raito that the person who wrote all those songs and conveyed all those emotions was L. L never seemed to show emotion. In fact Raito was starting to wonder if L even had emotions, so he was, even though he hated to admit it, farley excited to hear the songs L had wrote this time.
It had also come to his attention that the new CD was going to be called Phobia which brought him to the band name. Dikephobia, the fear of Justice. How ironic that the world's three greatest detectives would be that lead singer of a band called Dikephobia. He's afraid of justice, so does that mean he's afraid of me? For some reason that makes me sad. I know it's not true, but the thought of him being afraid of me makes me sad. Wait! What am I saying? That should make me happy! L, the world's three greatest detectives, cowering at my feet! A perfect image! Mwahahahah!
"Raito, we're heading to the studio now." Said L as he tugged lightly at the chain connecting them. Raito whipped his head toward L as he stood up and apologized.
"Sorry, I kind of spaced out there." Raito rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly before L nodded and started walking to the car. The rest of the band members had their own transportation while L and Raito were driven by Watari. The recording studio was in down town Tokyo, so they had about thirty minutes before they arrived.
"Hey Ryuzaaki, why did you start Dikephobia?" Raito asked a question that had been on his mind sense he had found out about L's band.
L turned toward Raito and looked him in the eyes. He stared at him for a while, making Raito squirm in his seat. Ryuzaaki's eyes are so intense. Finally L turned away an answered. "Well Raito-kun, believe it or not I had my teenage rebellious stage too. I wanted to solve cases, they gave me something to challenge my mind, but I also wanted to do something normal teens would do.
I was always a good writer and I had an ear for music, so I decided to try writing music. It ended up being I Wish I May, the first song of our first CD. I continued writing and we ended up with three CDs. I worked with Devon and them and I asked them if they would like to join me in my quest to be some what normal because they were good at music too. So we had a band and we practiced and we soon became noticed and got a contacted. We did that for about three years, and then, after a good run, we all decided to focus more on the things we were supposed to do."
"You were forced into being a detective again?" asked Raito, curious as to why he would give that up.
"No, I choose to go back to just being a detective. That was about the time that I challenged Coil and Deneuve. I'll give you a strawberry later if you keep that a secret." Responded L.
"Okay…" The rest of the car ride was spent in silence. When they got there the paparazzi were every where.
"It seems as if the record company let slip that we were coming back." L turned and looked at Raito, "Because of the handcuffs they are going to assume that we are lovers."
"Then why don't you take them off?" screeched Raito in shock. He hadn't thought of that. The handcuffs were such a constant in his life that he had completely forgot about them and how other people would take it.
"I'm sorry Raito-kun but that is not possible. You are still a Kira suspect and I can't let you out of my sight or take of the cuffs. We will just have to take the rumors." stated L calmly. Before Raito had a chance to protest Watari pulled open the car door and L push Raito out. The camera's flashed and Raito's reputation was officially ruined.
