Ameko: *still hiding behind Wall Rose* Yeah, I'd like to talk about last chapter for a bit right now...

Ameko: In almost every fanfiction I've ever read, authors want their stories to be taken seriously so they try to add some tear-jerking moments. There is nothing wrong with this as I do it too. But what I've seen every single time with novels, short stories, x readers, and hell even one-shots... Is that the only way people seem to know how to make someone cry is to kill off a character. I always try not to do that so yeah...

Ameko: Useless rant. END.

L and I were currently going over the mangas and figuring out a timeline for when the Kira supporters would strike the SPK building. Three days ago was when I witnessed the whole ordeal with Near. The following morning I had contacted Yuki to ask how things were going and to my great happiness she was welcomed into the SPK after a test of her intelligence and knowledge. The part that shocked me most of all was how Yuki said that Near blushed whenever she teased Near and hugged him. I honestly have no idea why Near had just now gotten a tad bit embarrassed by real affection.

However yesterday L had been one to get Beyond's attention for us all to have our own little meeting. We all agreed that L and I were going to be meeting Near the moment he arrived in Japan. We had everything planned out perfectly and had even gotten Beyond in on doing a small job for us. However all that was just about doing more training to increase his physical potential and fighting abilities.

By now we had filled out the timeline up till when L had 'died'. The timeline was literally all about measuring when everything happened and when everything else was going to happen. And by now I was pretty satisfied with myself.

So nothing truly horrible can happen right?

Right?


"Hey Near?" I asked as I leaned over the barricade of building blocks he had fortified himself in.

The young detective similar to me looked up with those grey-black eyes of his. "Yes Akio?"

"I was wondering something... You said you're only 7% certain that the Second L is Kira right?" Near nodded silently as he continued to build his fortress. "Well there's two things I wanted to say. One is that I was actually working with L before he... died... and that I also worked with who is now known as the second L..."

This caught Near's unemotional attention quickly. "I will ignore that fact you waited till now to tell us this and instead will ask you this... Do you believe that The second L... Light Yagami... Is in fact Kira?" I looked at him seriously.

"To be honest... I think that Light really is Kira. All the evidence points to it. After all, Light was the primary suspect chosen by the real L. And me, my sister, my friend, and L all agreed that Light is just suspicious by nature. He is a practiced liar and one of the best actors I've ever seen" Near contemplated this for a minute before standing up from his little castle and walking over to his chair.

"That settles it then... I think I'm now 36% certain that Light Yagami is Kira..." I gaped in shock.

"You trust what I say? That easily?" I narrowed my crimson orbs to slits.

Near looked at me over his shoulder, his pure cotton hair swaying a bit in my direction. "Yes... I don't understand why but I do feel like I can trust you. You have not told a single lie ever sense you came in here minus your name" Near muttered.

I growled hatefully at the blush slightly forming on my cheeks. "I still hate you..."

Just as I walked to his side, pulling up my own chair I was baffled by how Near was flashing one of his rare smiles. Even if some people say his smile was creepy the one thing I just couldn't bring myself to do was honestly hate that childish little break in the unemotional mask.

Focusing back on the task at hand I ruffled my hand through my long, silky white hair that ran down to the middle of my back.

As much as I hated it, I could not deny that I had grown attached to the cold, unfeeling detective over the past three days. However much I hated him I still didn't want him to die. Maybe my small attachment had flowered from the small bits of emotion he showed me that I couldn't see in the anime. Like when I pulled him into a hug to whisper his name in his ear and he blushed, and when he had looked at me with a feeling of respect when I had shown the SPK proof I could be trusted, and now when he blatantly smiled at me out of pure fondness...

But even after all of that I still hate him.

Maybe I'll never know why.

-End of Chapter 37-
