Mizu: STORY! READ IT!

Ameko: KYAHEHAHAHAHAAAA!


I was sitting leisurely on the couch with Matt and Mello at my sides. Matt was playing Super Smash Bros and Mello was snapping off pieces of chocolate. Unexpectedly, I heard Matt give an awkward cough and turn to the two of us. He stretched and stood up on his own two feet.

"Well guys, I gotta go out to get some cigarettes. Anyone need something?" I sighed at Matt's smoking habit. Even though I didn't approve of him doing it I knew there were more important things that could damage his health.

"Yeah. I'm running out of chocolate... Get me some more will you?" At the mention of chocolate an idea popped into my mind that made me grin in happiness. I stood up and leaned towards the redhead's ear.

Matt chuckled lightly at my request before giving an assuring nod that my request would be fulfilled.

As I set back down on the couch Mello looked at me questioningly. "What'd you ask him?"

I hummed lightly. "Not saying. All I can say is that you're gonna like it"

"Yeah whatever..." Mello rolled his eyes.

I turned to look at the blonde lightly, he had finished his chocolate bar and the empty silver wrapper laid crumpled on the floor.

"Mello. I'm serious. You're going to like it. It's for damn meth or something..." I muttered.

Mello fixated his piercing, teal eyes on me. "I know. I just don't care right now..."

I frowned at his attitude. "Well, who spit in your chocolate today huh?"

I took his growl as a sign for me to shut up, but immediately dismissed the sign in total.

"Mello tell me what's wrong..." Sighing heavily Mello stood up with a start and pulled me off the couch with his leather-gloved hand. Avoiding the suggestive looks from his lackeys, he took me off into a private area.

The room was a sort of hallway with barely any lights so I could only barely see where I was putting my feet. Stopping abruptly Mello turned to me.

"Look... It's nothing too horrible ok? I'm not on drugs, I'm not contemplating suicide. I'm just uneasy, alright?" I smirked.

"Oh no, no, no. That's not true. You're scared about something" Mello's gaze flared at being found out.

I rest my hand on my hip. "Bingo huh?"

Mello looked downward. "Yeah ok? Fine. I'm worried about you"

"Y-You're worried about me?" I stuttered in disbelief.

"Yeah, I am... It's just that... Well, I was the one who joined the Mafia. Matt never really joined but only showed up to help me out. We started this on our own accord, but you... I kidnapped you Tekina! You could have died!" My eyes widened at Mello's confession.

I wrapped my arms around the chocoholic and held him close to my chest, Mello returned the embrace equally.

"Mels...I'm not going to die. I'm in this with you till the end" Mello's golden blonde locks swept past my forehead as we held each other tightly.

"Why? Why are you doing this..." I rolled my eyes, pulling away from the embrace.

I smiled. "Because you're my friend Mello..."

Mello looked at me with an unseen softness and fear in his beautiful eyes.

"L-Listen Tekina... Just in case I don't get another chance... I'd like to say that... Well I need to say...that..." He stuttered.

"Yes?" I asked.

Mello sighed. "I need to say that I lo-" Mello's voice was cut off by a chorus of gasping and choking noises in the main room.

Oh... my... God...

I forgot about the raid on Mello's hideout.

"Damn it!" Mello cursed as he broke into a run down to the main hallway.

As we were able to see the main living room there laid several bodies, lifelessly sprawled on the floor.

Mello starting running hurriedly again as he moved two steps at a time up the metal staircase we me in hot pursuit. The mafia leader glared behind him as he eyed the notebook.

"Roy! Skyer! The notebook is under Rod's body! Bring it to the surveillance room upstairs!" Mello called to the two men.

As our footsteps echoed loudly through the room, Mello opened the metal door to the surveillance room shooing me inside before him.

"Tekina! Go hide over there! Mello pointed to underneath the table with two rows of computers on them. I nodded reluctantly and shuffled my body under the desk. Mello approached the desk and took a device I couldn't see from my position. However, when Mello sat down in the grey, metal chair I could easily see it.

The explosion trigger.

What I didn't know was that he held two identical triggers. As Mello pushed his thumb onto the first one I covered my ears to block the noises of explosions in the air.

"Don't move! I've just blown up the two entrances to this place. This will be your only warning. The next explosion will take out the entire building, as well as all your men inside... So you better do as I say..." Mello threatened.

The bright screens flickered on with static, showering the room in a white light. The swat member in the room approached us slowly and removed his helmet. A pang hit my heart as I knew it was Soichiro Yagami.

Mello chuckled darkly. "Yagami again huh? Maybe I should've killed you when I had the chance... History repeats itself! But I never dreamed in a million years that i'd be bargaining for the notebook with you again..."

Soichiro began reading the letters off Mello's name.

"M...I...H...A-" I couldn't take letting Soichiro finish the name so I called out as fast as I possibly could.

"STOP!" I screamed.

Luckily, Soichiro follower my request as stopped reading off Mello's name.

I came out from the darkness of the table and shielded myself in front of Mello.

"T-Tekina...?!" Soichiro called in disbelief.

"Yeah ok? It's me... Don't.. Don't hurt him..." I desperately pleaded.

"Why should I help you Akishi? Or should I say, Amaya!?" I flinched at being called my real name.

I shut my eyes quickly and prepared for the worst.

Soichiro flipped open the death note and lift his pen to the paper. However, he was only able to do so much as I heard a voice call behind him.

"AMAYA!" Came a hauntingly familiar voice.

Mizuki stepped into the light, still making sure her shield was kept on her head to stop Soichiro from reading her name.

I nearly cried with relief at seeing my best friend.

"Chouko step back... Don't interfere with this!" Soichiro ordered.

"LIKE HELL I'M DOING THAT! DON'T YOU DARE WRITE HER NAME!" Mizuki had unleashed her fury upon Soichiro but the stressed father only showed real fear at her anger before turning back to the book.

"Step out of the way right now and I won't write your name..."

Mello's voice came from behind me. "Tekina... No, Amaya... Please step out of the way..."

I glared fiercely at Mello and slowly, carried my legs out of the way.

"Mello... You understand that I know your name now right? If you surrender now I give you my word that I won't kill you" I knew that Light was practically screaming in his head for his father to kill Mello but luckily Soichiro was unlike his son in just about every way.

Mello's eyes turned cold. "Yagami..."

"Don't move!" Soichiro scribbled fiercely on the paper. "I've written down your first name! It will only take me a second to write your surname!"

The blonde sighed. "I'm truly sorry... For what it's worth I give you my word that I never wanted to kill you" He lowered his head.

"But tell me Yagami..." Mello lifted his head and fixated his cold teal gaze on him. "You've never killed someone before, have you?"

Mizuki's eyes widened as she knew what was about to happen next. She sprung out of the way just as the 'dead' man on the floor reached for an Uzi gun and repeatedly shot Soichiro through the chest.

I nodded to Mizuki and she nodded back as she ran out of the room to look like she wasn't here in the first place.

"Hozay! The notebook!" Mello commanded the lackey who made his way to Soichiro and tried to pry his hands open, but I knew he was still alive and wouldn't let go of it any time soon.

Mello grasped my hand with an iron cold grip and handed me a gas mask that laid on the floor. I secured the mask on my head as Mello did the same. Just then, footsteps echoed through the hallway as the rest of the task force arrive in swat gear.

"Deputy Director!" Matsuda called. Almost materializing in front of the group, Mizuki appeared once more to act as if she hadn't let him get shot. The dark haired girl pulled out one of her knives and stuck one through the man named Hozay.

Mello and I stood there, staring at the task force until Matsuda made another choking sound.

"It's all over Mello! Put your hands in the air and surrender!" a task member barked before I could hear

"A-Akishi?" Matsuda's strangled voice called my name in disbelief.

Mello looked at me with ultimate fear glistening in his eyes as he reached for my hand. I took it in mine and our fingers intertwined as a tear rolled off my cheek...

Just as Mello pulled the trigger.
