Stepping outside of the church for the first time, the cool night air hit you and you shivered well you walked down the abandoned church's steps. You made your way down the path to the metal gates with Matt supporting you as you walked.
' Right I am taking _ back to the hotel.' Said Mello, he opened his jacket and place his gun into his pistol holder. ' Matt, you can stay with Near and do the surveillance in the van and keep in touch by phone.' He pulled his motorbike keys out of his leather trouser pocket.
' Sounds like a plan.' Said Matt. ' Hopefully there will be no interference with the cameras or bugs I planted inside the church. L as a wire on him too. Hopefully Near as managed to make a connection...'
You interrupted Matt. ' I don't want to go to the hotel, I want to stay here and help with the surveillance.'
Mello gave you a glance. ' Are you sure about that ? You look terrible... ' He ran his hand through his blond hair. ' I didn't mean it like that... you may need medical attention.' He gave a nervous laugh as he put his keys back in his pocket.
' No... I will be fine. I just don't want to go back to the hotel knowing L is in the church with Beyond.' You said.
' No sweat _. ' Said Matt as he patted your arm. ' Come on lets get to the van before we miss anything important.'
You, Matt and Mello walked out of the church's gate and crossed the road where a van was parked. Mello opened the doors to the black van and climbed in. He held his hand out to you and Near gave you glanced as he sat on a office chair.
' Erm... my hands are still tied.' You said holding them up with the rope still bounding them.
Mello grabbed at the rope and pulled you inside. ' I'll cut that off for you.' He said as he sat you on another office chair and pulled a pocket knife from his boot. ' There.' He said as he cut the rope and then threw it over his shoulder.
' Hey dude, watch where you are throwing that... ' Said Matt, he pulled the van's doors shut. ' So Near, is it all connected ? ' He said as he threw the rope back at Mello and leant his hands on the computer counter. '
Near twirled a piece of his white hair around his finger and looked at Matt. ' The wireless camera connection is working fine. There as been a few problems with the bugs, but it was a easy problem to fixed.'
' Turn it up then.' Said Mello, he leant on the back of the chair where Near was sitting and looked at the computer screen. ' What are they doing ?'
' They have been standing staring at each other for the last 10 minutes. ' Answered Near, he turned up the volume on the speakers. ' Nothing important as been said, but I am recording as L asked.' He said, as he wrapped his arms around his teddy bear.
You wheeled the chair to the counter inbetween Matt and Near, then watched the computer screen. You saw L standing where he had been standing when you left him behind. Beyond was sitting on the alter table stabbing the knife against the table top.
' Look's like L's is having one of his stare downs. ' Said Matt, he tapped his finger tips on the counter top. ' This could take awhile.'
' Stop that.' Said a voice.
' L is talking. ' Said Mello.
You all went quiet and listened to what L was saying to Beyond.
* Watching computer screen and listening *
' Why does it bother you ?' Said Beyond with a smirk as he continued to stab the table top.
' You wanted to see me. ' Said L, he walked towards one of the church pews and sat down on it. ' Now tell me what do you want ? ' He sat in his normal position with his knee to his chest, thumb to his lips and watched Beyond.
' I missed you L. ' Said Beyond, he stabbed the knife with a lot more force at the table top. ' I've been lonely for along time. ' He slid off the alter table and left the knife suck in the table top. ' Thats why I took _ to get your attention.' He walked over to where L was sitting, then knelt on the pew in front of L and leant over it. ' I hope you didn't mind.' He gave L a smirk and a chuckle. ' I enjoyed her company...'
L sat in silence and began to chew his thumbnail.
' I enjoyed her when she was sleeping... ' Said Beyond, he licked his lips and it looked like he was thinking of something wicked.
L interrupted Beyond's thoughts. ' I am not here to play your twisted games Beyond.' He stood up and began to walk down the aisle with his hands in his jean pockets.
' Where do you think you are going ? ' Shouted Beyond, he stood up on the pew, then jumped off it and walked after L. ' Family don't treat each other like this!'
L stopped and glanced over his shoulder at Beyond. ' We may have the same DNA, but it does not make us family. You are a serial killer who will be brought to justice for your crimes. '
Beyond grabbed at L's arm, gripping it tightly as he began to pull him back down the aisle toward the alter. ' You're clearly not listening to me! You haven't got it yet have you! ' He pushed L backwards towards the alter table.
L stumbled backwards hitting his back on the alter table and it toppled over taking him with it. He lay still for moment, then roll on his side and tried to push himself up with his arm. ' What is your point Beyond ? You are making no sense.'
Beyond pulled the knife out off the table top and knelt down by L's side. ' The point is L...' He grabbed L's white shirt with his hand and pulled him onto his back. ' I want you dead.'
-* Back in the van *-
' This is not going to plan. ' Said Near with a look of surprise on his face, he dropped his teddy bear from his lap and moved closer to the computer screen.
' Shit!' Shouted Matt, he pulled out his gun from the back off his trousers. ' I'm going in.. ' He went and pushed the van doors open then glanced back at Mello. ' Mello lets go!. He said as he ran out off the van.
' On it.. ' Said Mello as he followed close behind.
You watched in horror as Beyond held the knife up above L's chest , you could do nothing but watch and listen.
'Seeing as we are in a church... I think these words are suitable. ' Said Beyond.' I now pronounce you... dead!' He said as he went to stab L.
You let out a scream and covered your eyes.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG
