# 45 Fake
I'm laying in a concrete cell. I was bad again, so that asshole Mikami threw me in here.
It's ok though, because in here I can make my plans. Besides, I kind of deserve this crap, since… when Light took over and caught us, I didn't do anything. I just stood and screamed for Mello to do something. And he tried, he even managed to get a bullet through one of his follower's heads. A couple of others were wounded, but there were too many of them.
I shoulda done something.
And then we were in front of Kira. Stripped and on our knees. God, L was there, chained by his neck to Kira's throne. He didn't look like L anymore.
He gave us to his followers. Near went to some reporter guy who helped spread the word of Kira. I went to Mikami, the so-called 'hand of Kira'.
Mello…
Poor, beautiful, perfect Mello… Light gave him to that fat director. Dame- something. I can't pronounce it.
He broke Mello's rosary before he sent him away. I wanted to leap up and rip his throat out with my teeth. I was gonna, but… I was scared. Now I don't know where Mello is. He's got to be alive though… god, what that bastard must be doing to him…
I'm going to make it right though. I've worked it out; I'm not third just because I'm cute. Mikami doesn't know I've hidden a knife in here, in between some of the stones of the cell. I've been using it to dig around the rocks, loosen up the concrete. See, I know this cell's just a stone block that leads right to the outside world. If I can just get one of the blocks loose enough I can crawl out.
And then it'll be easy; I worked it out, see? I'll run like hell. Stay in dark alleyways and in back-streets, and it'll be bloody freezing since Mikami won't let me have clothes, but no matter, because by now I'm so mucky anyway I can blend into the garbage.
And I'll run and run until I get to the city limits, I mean, Tokyo must end somewhere, right? Yeah. I'll get into the countryside where Kira won't be able to get me so easy. I know a lot about the outdoors, never liked going there but I know enough to know how to build shelter, gather berries and stuff.
I'll be careful and quiet. I'll go from town to town gathering those few people left who don't believe in Kira. There must be some still left. If need be I'll go all over the world, picking people up here and there until I have an army.
Yeah… an army against Kira. And I'll lead them here, one by one Kira's supporters will fall.
And on the final day we'll stand before Kira's palace and storm the place. I'll take great pleasure in doing what I should have done, ripping his throat out with my bare teeth, if need be.
Once he's dead, I'll go to where Mello is being held… I'll find him and I'll kneel next to his poor, broken body and whisper…
"It's okay Mello, it's me… we won… we killed him, we're all going to be okay."
His arms'll come up and he'll hug me tight, like he used to, mumbling about how much he loves me and how we'll be together again at long last…
We'll rebuild the world. L will be in charge, we'll free him and Near too and they'll make everything right again. And it'll be thanks to me.
Me. The kid who always got picked last for football, whose only purpose was to be Mello's sidekick. I'll have saved the entire world, and Mello will love me for it. He won't even see L anymore, I'll be his whole world because I risked everything and saved him.
We'll be together again…
We'll…

Mikami scowled, tapping one foot irritably as Kira's personal physicians got to work patching up his red-haired pet.
The damn kid was more trouble than he was worth, laying there babbling all the time, looking around at things that weren't there, and now the idiot had smuggled a knife from somewhere and cut himself up.
Even as the doctors worked to bandage his arms, he was mumbling about revolution and rescue, taking place inside his own mind.
