Here's chapter 6.
I still don't own Death Note. I am still wondering why I still have to say it.
For any who were still worried, the applicant has a name.
Read, enjoy, or don't, and (I didn't want to do this, but-) REVIEW. There! Review is now capitalized, bolded, italicized, and underlined.
I don't know what else I can do to make it noticable. I even typed it twice.
If the story is bad, I'll never know because nobody commented on it...
Yes, I know that one person has.
6 - Contact
"What?"
Uret smiled. "I said, my boss hates L too."
BB was dumbfounded. Sure he yelled his distaste for L to the whole world, but he never actually said the name. He pondered for a moment. Who is this guy? What the hell does he want? Ya know... I'll find out. Sensible thing to do really... "Who the hell are you?"
Uret shook his head and smiled. "I'm sorry, where are my manners? My name is Uret Imakim."
"..." BB stared at the man. He couldn't fathom what parent in their right mind would name their child Uret. But then, he couldn't fathom why his name was Beyond Birthday... "I see..."
"Heheh... I see you don't understand... It's not my real name. It's all part of my boss's plan to eliminate L." The expression on BB's face told Uret everything. "Heh. I see you're interested."
It was true. BB was interested. He also meant what he said to L. He really did want to join The Agency. But this... This was too good to pass up. "What is this plan of his?"

Linda was in the kitchen. She was waiting to go back to that man. She wasn't waiting for his order, that came up a few minutes ago. Almost as soon as she put it in, actually. But anyway, she was waiting for the courage to face him again. The last time she talked to him, he nearly killed her. She was in no hurry to repeat that experience.
But, if I wait any longer his order will get cold... He'd probably kill me for that, too... She decided to wait a little longer, she was in no hurry to die.

"Really?"
Uret nodded. "Yes. I could take to him. He can explain in more detail."
BB thought about it. He had already killed his parole officer, so it didn't matter what he did, so long as he sent regular reports to the police station. But, he did really want to do good. But L doesn't see any good in me. Why start now? "Sure. Let's meet him."
"E'cuse me, sir..."
"WHAT?!"
Linda dropped BB's Wasabe all over the table. "Shit! I-I'm so s-so-"
BB stood up, ready to kill. Most of the boiling hot Wasabe had landed on him. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?!"
Linda backed as far away as she possibly could from him, but it still wasn't enough. He's going to kill me. This is it. I'm going to die. "I-I a-apologize...!" BB picked up a knife. "Wait! I c-can..." Her voice trailed off. She closed her eyes and braced for his attack.
A few seconds passed.
A few more went by.
Then, a full minute passed.
She opened her eyes. "Uret-san...?"
"I'm sorry Linda, I should have stepped in sooner. I had no idea he would go that far..." Uret Imakim was standing in front of BB and holding BB's arm up in the air. The arm with the knife.
Linda stood up. "I'm so s-sorry, s-sir... I c-can g-get ya anot-"
"Linda, that won't be necessary. I'm just about to take him to see Tielwal-sama."
Linda looked her attempted murderer over. "I see." She knew about Tielwal-sama's plan. Uret-san told her all about it. He said it was necessary to have a contact to the outside world. She was that contact since he said he had already found all the female participants for the plan. "Good luck. You'll need it."
"You wanna die, bi-"
"That's enough!" Uret's voice rang with authority. BB stopped. Linda came out from behind Uret. "Go wait outside." BB left and Uret turned to Linda. "I'm sorry I can't stay longer... Business, ya know...?"
Linda looked around the empty cafe. Sure, it was after the peak hours, but... "Sure, business..."
Uret walked to the table he and BB were sitting at and put a large sum of money on it. "Money's on the table. For your troubles. 'Til next time." Uret left.
Linda took the money and went behind the counter. She put the money in the cash register and took out her sketchbook. She sat down and started to draw.

"So, before we go in let me offer a few words of advice."
"Like what?"
Uret paused. Nah... He can learn the hard way. He smiled. "Never mind..." He opened the door and walked in.
"Uret, is that you?"
"Yes, sir. In the flesh, not the name."
"What took you so long? Did you find the last one?"
"No, sir. I found somebody better."
"Who?"
Uret motioned for his find to come in.
"Ah." Tielwal smiled as BB walked in. "Beyond Birthday. The famous Los Angeles BB Murderer..."
Uh-oh... Trouble in paradise...
BB is nothing but trouble. Oh. And Linda is not evil. She just doesn't know the full extend of the plan...
Next Time...
BB agreed with killing L and wanted to take part in it. However... "That's it? That's the plan to end all plans?" He didn't much care for the plan. It was too simple. It was too hyped up. BB turned to leave.
"Don't you want to hear the rest?"
BB stopped. Bastards. "What else is there?" He didn't turn back around.
