Summery: Interception: n. (American football) the act of catching a football by a player on the opposing team.
She didn't always agree on what was being done by the one who called himself "Kira," or the mysterious being who called himself "L," but with everyone choosing sides and only a select few who are "indecisive," the odds are stacking up against her- and with a threat on her life, her grandfather contacts an old friend of his, and next thing she knows she's right in the middle of the two opposing forces.
Though she sees good in everyone, she's having a hard time deciding which side to fight for…. Kira's sense of "Justice"? Or the "Justice" that has been used by human's for generations? Decisions, decisions…

Even though only one name is written in the DEATH NOTE, if it influences and cause other humans that are not written in it to die, the victim's cause of death will be a heart attack.
January 23, 2004; 11:43 PM; Kagome's Apartment:
With L and Kagome:
Her breathing stopped and she stumbled back and away from him. Ryuzaki looked at her curiously before motioning towards the (never used) bed. She seemed weary of it and he gave her a pointed look, an eyebrow raised as if to say: "You actually think I would try something?"
Kagome swallowed passed the lump in her throat, having the decency to look a little sheepish as she walked towards the bed, she sat down on the edge of it, pulling her thick socks off and cringing slightly at the odor. She blushed brightly in embarrassment, sitting on her feet instead as she laid the file in front of her.
"I'll only answer your questions if you answer mine." Kagome said, looking up at him and watching as he crawled and sat atop of the bed next to her. He frowned at her sat with his legs in the "butterfly" position, his knees touching the covers below.
"No. You will answer my questions when I answer yours. No loop holing this, Kagome, this is serious."
Kagome sighed as she nodded; her shoulder's slumping in defeat.
"Why did you look at my Health file, was this what you were looking at the other day?" Kagome asked, looking at him. Ryuzaki shrugged, taking a lollipop out of his pocket, unwrapping it and sticking it in his mouth. He brought another one out and offered it to Kagome, she declined politely.
"You were very sick, and you missed an important test. I wanted the file to see what could possibly make you feel better so we could avoid something like this again. But then I came across something interesting…." L trailed off, looking at her. Kagome's shoulder's tensed; she nibbled on her lip in anticipation.
"I noticed that you are diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus, but most commonly referred to Diabetes." L said. Kagome lurched forward, her heart stopped as she gazed at the honey colored comforter she was sitting on.
"D-Diabetes…? But, I don't have that- Sesshoumaru! That sneaky bastard, I knew he hid my medical files, but I didn't know he changed them after I went to the hospital! I've never been so thankful in my entire life."
Kagome righted herself; she smiled shyly at him, coughing away her embarrassment.
"A-Ah, yeah! I've had it for a while, I didn't tell anyone because I didn't want them to worry about me!" Kagome said, waving her hand as she blushed brightly, hiding her embarrassment by coughing into her hand lightly.
"Yes, it's a shame. Do you know what type of diabetes you have?" L asked. Kagome blinked owlishly at him.
"T-There are other kinds?" she squeaked, L gave her a condescending look, his eyes suspicious. Kagome ducked her head, her blush growing brighter.
"Dammit, I can't answer any of these questions without looking at my medical file…." Kagome thought hopelessly, looking at the file in her hands.
Why can't she look at it, you ask? Well wouldn't it seem kind of suspicious (to L of all people) that someone has to look at their medical records to see what TYPE of sickness they have?
"Yes, Kagome, there are other types." L sighed, rubbing his eyes. Kagome realized in that moment that he looked…. Tired, defeated almost. She smiled lightly, the reason behind this situation finally catching up with her-
He'd only been worried.
Kagome kissed his cheek, standing up and taking the file with her. She smiled when she saw the light dusting of color flash across his cheeks.
"Try to get some sleep, even the greatest of Insomniacs need to sleep sometime or else their brain knocks them out." She winked at him, and left the room, yawning as she did.
L stared after her, almost wishing to call her back to his room, tell her why he really never went to sleep, the nightmares- Wammy's house when he was a child was horrible, extremely so. The constant ringing of that insufferable bell only dims and vanishes when she talks, when she laughs, and just being in her presence alone is addicting enough and the silence of the bells that had been programmed into his mind when he was a boy was a relief.
But also he needed that file.
He sighed and laid back on the bed, staring up at the white ceiling with his hands folded over his stomach, he scratched at his scalp, reminding himself mentally that he needed to take a shower in the morning.
Next Morning (January 24); 7:34 AM:
Kagome popped her back, thankful for the break in lessons that day and able to sleep in pass six for once. She glanced out her window, the rain hitting it rather harshly for the winter rains. She groaned out loud, cursing the kami's that the water would turn to ice and make walking on the sidewalk much more difficult than it should've been.
Kagome walked out of her room, clad in her night shorts and overly large T-shirt she favored to wear to bed some days.
"Oh- Matsuda! Do you know where Ryuzaki went?" Kagome asked, stopping her friend in the hall way as she yawned and rubbed the back of her bed head, she stared up at him with tired eyes but otherwise was awake. Matsuda blushed slightly and laughed, pointing in the direction he saw the detective went in.
"Yeah, he was going to the bathroom to look for something, you just missed him, literally. He might still be looking if you hurry, why do you want to know?"
"Oh- I needed to talk to him about something. Thanks Touta." Kagome said, turning on her heel and headed to the slightly adjured door.
She knocked once before pushing it open, her eyes closed as another yawn took over.
"Hey, Ryuzaki, do you-" She opened her eyes, staring at the (almost) bare backed Ryuzaki. He was standing straight, his shoulders turned so he looked at the door, a sucker's stick sticking out of his mouth as his messy hair looked messier than normal, his shirt around his arms as his jeans sagged and showed his black boxers, slowly inching downwards.
"….. Ehh…." Kagome's mouth twitched as she stared at him, a blush flaming her cheeks as her eyes widened and her pupils shrunk. Her fingers twitched by her sides as her hand flew up to her mouth.
She took a step back, and her eyes couldn't help but follow the white shirt as it fell to the tiled floor below, his baggy jeans slowly falling off, joining the shirt on the floor.
L stared at her, a frown making its way against his rosy colored cheeks, his eyebrow lifted in curiosity and amusement. Kagome gasped, blushing brighter than before as she turned away from him.
"AH! HONTOUNI GOMEN'N ANSAI!" Kagome screamed, slamming the bathroom door and running to her room, slamming her own door. She leaned against it, her heart pounding in her ears as she tilted her back against the cool wood and closed her eyes, than reopened them quickly after shutting them.
She stared out her window again, seriously debating whether or not to open it and just dunk her head outside and let the ice cold rain pelt her neck and the back of her head.
"The gods are laughing at me, damn Kami!" She cursed, sliding down her door and bringing her knees up to her chest to hide her embarrassment.
She didn't want to celebrate anymore. Ryuzaki passed the entrance exams; he was going to To-Oh.
…. And he had a nice ass too….
Kagome groaned again and rubbed her forehead against her knees, cursing every Kami she could think of for her predicament.
She lifted her head up, and glanced around her room to try to help distract her mind, her eyes landed on the yellow folder holding her medical records; she sighed and reached for it, grabbing it from the floor by her bed. She got back settled against her door, not really in the mood for someone to bother her, she locked the door.
She opened the file and read the basic information: her name, birthdate, type of blood (B), parent's names, siblings, allergies…
By then she was on the second page, and then the third, fourth, and fifth. Comments from every doctors visit was recorded and logged. Her eyebrows furrowed when she noticed that she hadn't gone to the doctors till she was about 18 after she returned from her adventures to the past.
She thought Sesshoumaru fixed all of this so it wouldn't look suspicious.
She frowned slightly when she continued reading, and then her eyes widened when she read all the sicknesses she had *ahem* accumulated during her last year of middle school and the first part of her high school life.
It took up over two pages!
And her eyes widened in horror when she read the doctors comment from when she went to the doctors all those years ago and they had frowned when seeing her school records.
Nothing was changed, Ryuzaki knew everything.
