Deathnote: alt =Kratos and Mera1506=

"Well we got his schedule, the chief hasn't been home in days according to his work schedule and the mother is out quite a lot too and Sayu is still going to school. The house should be empty by ten O'clock tomorrow morning." JT said. This had all been in Raye Penber's report of observing the Yagami family. "So search first, talk to witness after that." She mumbled and took another bite. Tonight there was nothing more to really do, so she could work out and for a change since the investigation began get some sleep. Although she could function on just three hours of sleep a night on occasion she did like to sleep in. "But why is the shinigami staying with Light? Is it because the weapon is in his posession that the sinigami is bound to him and follow him around? For how long though? Until it runs out of pages? Until it's destroyed or until Light dies?" JT said. It could be one or more then one of those. "And more importantly what is the shinigami going to do when Light is arrested?"
 
It seemed JT had already had this all planned out which made L almost feel a little jealous, to the fact that her method had allowed something to be created that he.. because of his nature would have taken longer. He had the same conclusions but she was the one taking the actions to trying to get Kira trapped, before he gets to a unstoppable point. "I think it could be any of those.. if the person dies, a shinigami.. would have no reason to stick around.. and maybe the tool of killing is originally the shinigami's.. so he has to watch what is done with it.." That made a little bit of sense, but even now the whole shinigami thing was rather hard to consider being real, but it was a chance.. of such a case, and would explain the bus incident more so as a Kira caused murder then.. a convenient way for Light to become out of suspicion. "I guess we will see tomorrow if you manage to get that warrant.." L was already finished eating now as he looked at JT for a moment.. "What would be Light's reason.. to become Kira.. maybe he feels like wanting to become a god.. of something he is creating?.. a world of no criminals.. It's similar to what we want except he just kills for it.. Am i correct?"
 
"If I get that warrant? Did you read the same witness testimony I did?" JT said and grinned, there was no doubt she'd get it. sayu put Light on that buss, hell even Light put himself on it. "Makes sense. Or maybe it's just bored or both. Maybe that's why it fropped that thing into our world? Frankly I don't care as long as we can get it to go back to hell." JT said and now finished her meal. She was pretty full, but she hadn't brought dessert to not eat it.

"Hmm. I guess so. It appears that power brings out the worst in Light. The power this thing gives him gave him a god complex and it seems he already was a sociopath." She replied and pulled out two portions of tiramisu. Not a good mix maybe, but both would be good. She handed one to L and sat back down and opened her own. She liked her sweets once in a while too.
 
For a moment L had actually forgotten such a thing, yet acted now as if he knew such a thing.. It seemed even master minds like him forgot simple things like that.. but it was not his method so parts of what JT did and organized slipped away from him.. but the two seemed to come up with the same answers at least. Which was expected really, because that just meant they were close to the truth. "Not just Light.. power brings out the worst in everyone,.. most in Light's case.. would probably do the same but be caught quicker.. he is more intelligent then I expected.. but tomorrow we should be able to find the correct evidence that will make everything confirmed.

A small smile crossed L now as he started to continue his dessert, sometimes even he wondered how he managed to eat so much sweet food, and never have issues with his teeth... or with cramps or pains.. or anything but that was probably because he was designed for such matters of working and so did not really have to worry about real food most of the time.. or sleep for that matter functioning on two to three hours.. most nights.
 
Although she didn't eat sweets that much she did sleep an average of three hours a night, sometimes more sometimes less. Her drug of choice was caffeine. It seemed to take ages before morning came. Around five she went to the gym for her workout and at nine sharp she was in the judge's chamber's for a warrent. The judge had no doubts, just signed the warrent. she thanked him and walked out to go and meet L.

She knocked on the door. Watari let her in. "Well I got the warrent, shall we get going?" She then asked, knowing his answer would be yes. She didn't bother to take her jacket off. They'd be leaving fast. She was excited about this search, for both her and L this was their biggest case ever. "So if we manage to close this case, wanna celebrate?" She then asked him.
 
L stayed up for a little longer seeing if anything else could be worked out, and at the last minute checking out the death tally for the day of possibly Kira deaths.. so far if they were all added up.. Light really had taken out quite a few.. and he was almost purely sure it was Yagami without a doubt.. and tomorrow they would have the final evidence, this was what he was sure about. He although hearing JT rise, did not bother to get up instantly.. waiting about an hour after her departure before he slid himself out of the bed that was in completely different rooms to each other.

L knew not how her mornings went, but knew how his own went.. a hot coffee..overloaded with sugar.. mixed with chocolate to make a mocha.. something that as he started to head to his own kitchen seemed that Watari had made already for him just how he liked it.. before returning to his computer to try and help as best he could. L began to drink it slowly, letting it's warmth and sweetness get to him, the caffeine an added bonus. It did not seem like long after that, the she seemed to return.. obviously with a warrant ready as well, with such strong evidence to suggest such a search of Yagami Light's house.. it was expected " But of course.. although I am not sure if it will be over straight away, we know not where Yagami hides such a book as such that we don't even know the appearance of.."
 
"Well I think somewhere close, somewhere his family would never set foot. Probably his own room. He wouldn't leave anything to chance, not to mention that he has to have it nearby to use it. Since we suspect that anyone who touches it can see the shinigami, if that's true he'd have to be sure. I'm going to check Light's room first." JT said. She left the room to go to the car. She got in the car outside of the hotel after Watari had opened the door and she moved over so L could get in too.

The ride there wasn't long, not that long. She took her binoculars out and saw the mother getting ready to leave. Light's class should have started by now as well as Sayu's and the chief was nowhere to be seen and probably working his butt off. "Let's wait five minutes after she leaves just to be sure." JT said. She left, the house was empty now. JT watched her walk across the corner. A car stated and then she drove by them, looking at the odd car with tinted windows for a moment and driving on, turning the corner. "Well it looks like the house is empty now." JT said after a few minutes.
 
Before it was even said, L was sure that such a place like his bedroom would be the only suitable room he would place it in, since so far.. they had ideas that when touched they could see the shinigami with Light, and so.. in saying that since it could probably be mistaken as a normal notebook, it would be hidden away so that the rest of the family did no stumble across it or find out he was Kira and that only place that he would probably be left alone.. for him to be able to write up the list of names,.. would be such a location as well, knowing he would probably have a computer and a tv,. both used to make finding names easier.

L slowly walked out in the same clothes as general, rarely did he change into anything different, after all.. he had about five pairs of what would appear to be the same clothes and Watari always made sure at least half of those were clean and so he did not need to bother with anything else. "Hmm yes I agree with that, just incase.. she decides to go back if she forgot something. It seemed the mother had noticed something odd about the darkly tinted car.. but continued to drive "It would seem so,.. Still, we should wait about another minute or so.. I will help you with the search in his room, I am positive it would be the only location he could keep it without his parents finding it.
 
"Alright." JT said, even though she'd already left five minutes ago. A few minutes later still nothing. "Let's go, it's not like we're breaking in L, it's a warrent." JT said and got out of the car, he could either follow or stay put. It was a nice house and JT had lock picking tools at the ready and had the lock open in maybe two seconds longer then it would take with a key. The company that installed the alarm had provided her with the code and she typed it in. Now to find Light's bedroom. She was sure L would follow pretty soon. He was way too curious to stay behind.

She walked up the stairs and opened a door. Sayu's room, no doubt about that. She looked at the next door. The handle was at an odd angle and she looked it over an almost missed the mechanical pencil laid over the hinges. The piece of paper in the door was obvious. She removed the mechanical pencil, then took the piece of paper and opened the door. She put the piece of paper and mechanical pencil down on Light's desk. That's where she would start.
 
L for a moment just sat within the car, it was a little risky actually going to the house of the suspected Kira.. what if the death god was waiting inside, left to guard it or something silly like that.. nether the less he just sighed and slowly stepped out of the car, not used to being so upfront with a case. This was all a new method to him.. Usually he would get others to search ones house or to setup hidden cameras of the sort. As he started to walk he darted back to the car grabbing just such a thing, small little cameras that would feed video data to his laptop. Since they were here if they did not find anything, they had to at least do something else with the time they were going to spend.

He was only a moment behind JT now entering the house before starting to look where she was listening to footsteps that sounded like they stopped as she obviously found the room she was searching for, he walked after her now before slowly entering seeing her place a piece of paper and what looked like a mechanical pencil down on Light's desk "I take it, he set those up.. to check to see if anyone enters his room?" Now the searching would begin, but what L's eyes were doing right now was looking for good spots to stick hidden cameras, that were about the size of.. well a very small object.
 
"Yes. Too bad we don't fall for something like that, well for him that is and L the warrent is to search his room, not install cameras." JT said as she saw him look around the room. Oh well back tot he search she decided to look in his desk. Schoolbooks, normal notebooks, schoolstuff in general. She memorized the order, then took it all out to see if anything was hidden. So far absolutely zip. She put the books and notebooks back and opened the drawers. One was empty with the exception of a diary, the other was stuffed with pens, pencils and whatnot. She took everything out again and took a thorough look at every object, nothing or maybe...

It could be her imagination, but the drawers didn't seem to be equally high in space on the inside. She grabbed the ruler and measured both drawers. It was less then an inch, but the difference was there. She tapped on the bottom of both drawers and found one was hollow. "I think I got something here." She said and went to look to see if she could open it. She ran her fingers over the smooth surface, first the inside, then the outisde and grinned when she foud a little hole. She looked around to something she could use, then used the filling of a ballpoint. The bottom rose and she took a carefull look inside and noticed it wouldn't be wise to remove the filling of the ballpoint. She took the bottom out and saw a notebook that had two words on the front, Death Note. She took it out and put it on the desk, then put the drawer down carefully. She put the Death Note in an evidence bag. Then she put the fake bottom of the drawer back in place. She began to read what was written inside. "We got him now, take a look.". JT said and handed L the Death Note, then began to put thing back in the desk in the same order as they'd been in there before.
 
Hearing such a thing L sighed before deciding not to bother about the camera's, since after all, they were searching for the proof that Kira was Light.. so that the case would be over. All they needed was evidence, they had instinct.. and a solid feeling that it was definitely Sayu's brother.. that was the culprit. Ever since seeing Light,.. as someone who was being investigated, brought up a slight curiosity.. which L from that moment had a small feeling even though to begin with it was only a small percentage that it could be such a person because he had seen his grades before.. and so far the intellectual level he had seen,.. could have only been a few people.. and to begin with, the school hours.. everything fitted nicely. Instead now his eyes started to try and find anything, but really he knew JT was probably going to be the one who actually found the book.

He watched now as she seemed to start measuring the draw, ... possibly a hidden containment, it would be a clever spot really, but if he had taken such precautions.. there had to be a catch of just trying to open the draw.. unless, that was when he saw as JT seemed to find what must have been a small hole as she then grabbed a ballpoint pen and started to dismantle it a little.His eyes just stayed fixed now watching as the hidden area started to lift and move, to begin with all he saw was a black part of the book, but it had to be it a slight look of triumph crossing his face before he decided to speak "How did you know?" Slowly he started to then flick through the pages a little seeing a little on how it worked, noticing how a few pages seemed to be torn out.. "We still have to be a little careful, we might have the book.. but what if all he needs is a page from this book?,.. " It could always be a possibility but still,.. they knew who Kira was.. had his name and all,.. now they could easily take him into custody, the deathnote being the evidence.. containing most of the names of whom he killed a few pages seemed to be missing,
 
"I didn't. To me it just appeared to be there and I checked for good meassure, then it was a matter of checking everything. However some pages are missing, I think I get the picture now. Remember the FBI agents? What if Light made Raye write down the names. You know envelops with wholes in them. Raye wouldn't have seen the specifics for the agents at all and since KIRA was nearby he couldn't open them either. Raye received the file, wrote down the names and since a picture acconpanied the name that sort of automatically got stuck in his head." JT said. After putting everything back in the desk she moved to the cabinet with books. "Give me a hand L, we need to check every book for the missing pages and check the wall behind it for secret compartments." JT said and got started at the bottom.

Some magazines and all, those were big enough to hide the missing pages. At the end of the bottom line she found the envelope. "We get lucky again." JT said and pulled the papers out and indeed it wasnt Light's handwriting. It was Raye's. "Well this doesn't account for all the pages, but I'm sure he's got some on him as well. The one thing that would make sense, especially for an intelligent kid like Light was experimenting to see if a torn out page or piece of it would work and we know at least that a piece can make you see the shinigami, so we should assume the worst and think a torn out page or piece of one is as deadly as the notebook itself." JT said and put the magazines back in the right order. "I think we're done here, we should go before anyone comes home." She then suggested.
 
That made quite a bit of sense really and was exactly what L could understand, it was more the fact that it felt like the right location.. and so she checked and found such a thing. When he had looked through the Deathnote a small laugh left his lips as he saw what was supposed to be his death.. oh how easy it had been to trick Kira into that one using a criminal which was more forced into doing it rather the volunteering. Hearing what JT had said he remembered upon looking for camera spots a few possible places that could have hidden pages. He started to help her a little before noticing a envelope of which she seemed to beat him to and instead picked it up.. it was obviously what was used to trick Raye Penber. He partially always wondered how so many FBI agents were taken out only seconds between each death.. but Light really had been foolish to try and hide all the evidence in his own room,

Slowly L nodded before deciding to respond slowly â?? Wait just a second longer.. I think if we look a little longer we will find some of the hidden pages, they would just appear to be normal note pages.. but they would be folded.. and if you look from a slight angle.. they go slightly gray..â? Quickly his eyes scanned noticing within a book what appeared to be a gray glimpse before grabbing that book, opening it and then retrieving the page â??.. We canâ??t leave Kira with so much pages left missing.. Judging by how the book is made.. at least ten or so pages have been ripped out.. two of them are in that envelope.. one is here.. we have to assume others have been used before.. so there probably is another three or four pages.. then we can leave..â?
 
"I see, we can look, however he can have the pages on him." JT reminded him and merely started looking through the rest of the books and magaznes systematically. In a book half way up the cabinet she founds two more pages. "L I think he has the last two on him, I'm sure of it." JT said and handed him the two pages. She put the books back and put the death note and pages in evidence bags. Then she put the ball point back together, ready to leave the room. It would only make sense that Light would keep the two pages on him as a form of protection or something.

She grabbed the piece of paper and the mechanical pencil and looked at L. they'd been there for over two hours already. They had what they needed and she was curious about the shinigami. Would it protect Light? If so they'd be dead, if not it would be interesting. She was waiting outside the door for L to leave so she could put things back into place.
 
L would have really not expected less from Light being Kira.. to the fact of extra pages kept with him. Slowly everything started to make even more sense before he saw that JT had found some other pages, he also had found a few pages.. and so it seemed just like she had said two or so pages were missing. Still they had the evidence they required.. and those pages would hopefully still not allow him to manage to kill the two of them.. since they both used aliases and well.. L had many names he used as another alias to publically go under.. but no one actually knew he was L for that fact. yet anyhow. Although he had not really noticed, his eyes looked over at the clock for a moment. Making sure they had all the evidence they needed slowly he slipped in one hidden camera, mainly for the reaction that Kira would give to see his deathnote.. stolen from him.

It was such a small camera, and was nicely hidden as his eyes then fell onto JT "One can not hurt.. after all, I want to see Kira's reaction.. which leads me to thinking.. how do you think the shinigami will act? .. I have never heard of them protecting people before.. but they are death gods.. creatures.. that kill to gain lifetime.." he doubted the same worked for humans.. and so at least Light would not probably outlive the sentence and then public execution to be made as an example off..
 
"So do I. I wonder what that death god looks like. Anyway we need to go." She said and closed the door behind L, putting the piece of paper back in place as well as the mechanical pencil and she made sure the doorknob had exactly the same angle as when they came in. She walked down the stairs and out the front door, back tot he car where Watari had been waiting for them.

She wondered how things would turn out. This death god was a wild card, she was sure it would have no trouble knowing their real names, however it is that shinigami know that. It was a god after all so would ti protect Light? If it really had to stay until the death note was full or until the owner died what would it do if Light was sentenced to a life time in jail. They'd taken it, did that make them the new owner? But then it should have showed up right? So as long as Light was alive he was the owner? That would mean this death god would be stuck in prison with Light for a long time. Would it kill Light? So many questions and no answers, not until they had a chance to talk to this death god. She got into the car and moved over tot heother side for L.
 
Although the two of them were now running of chances that the death god would not help Light, it was hopeful that would be the case.. and that well. Kira.. would be sentenced to life, all the evidence they needed, was already theirs, and he would gather handwriting samples of Light.. from what ever school related things he could manage to gather. That and they would soon have the recording of Kira noticing it was gone thanks to the tiny hidden camera.One thing was for certain though, was that it felt great to leave such a place.

There was still a lot of questions they both probably knew not the answers to,.. but L was just happy that they had found him,.. found Kira before more damage could be done although it was not entirely over just yet.. it was likely he still had pieces.. and again hopefully.. the death god would not protect him somehow.. from the fate that had been chosen because JT and L managed to gather everything they needed.. and in reasonable time as well. Slowly he entered the car after JT a slight smile crossing his face a rare sight to say the least "we caught him.. the two of us,.. just like that other case.. when i was in doubt you came and helped me finish what was started.. Watari.. drive us to the hotel, I have one last thing I have to see.."
 
"Well I think I should go and search Light's locker at school for something with his handwriting, then find a good expert" JT said. They couldn't waste anymote time. "I'll talk to your witness oh and what is it you want to see?" She asked. She was wondering wat was going through his mind. This brilliant sweet man was hard to read and only by knowing him for some time she knew his habits. But getting a grip on what he could be thinking was hard even for her. she suspected it had something to do with either the Death Note or the surveillance tapes.

However altough there was surveillance the cameras weren't state of the art and didn't have too many pixels which made enhancing a picture difficult. She was sure the 80's would call for their securty system. Something a friend once told her when dealing with an old model security system. She would also need to visit Naomi. It really was going to end soon, today Light would be arrested.
 
"I am sure I can find quite a few things through the school's apparent secure system.. I hear that the computers to mark tests and exams scan in the answers into a database that then calculates if it's wrong or right.. so I will get my hands on those scans.. without the school knowing though.. but still maybe you should go gather what you can from his locker.." a faint what almost seemed like a smile seemed to cross L which even partially surprised him when realized his expression changing to become more normal for himself afterwards. "I will notify that witness you are coming around then.." Watari had already started to drive now towards the hotel as had been requested before L looked at JT hearing what she had to say..

"I could not help myself but plant one small minute camera.. that will give us clear view of when Light gets home.. and judging by the time, say a few or so minutes after we get back to the hotel.. we will have footage straight to my laptop of his reaction to his missing deathnote" L then brought out the deathnote looking at it again "quite amazing this was all that it took to kill so many.. It's lucky that more of these things don't seem to exist.."
 
"Oh that I'd like to see. I'll talk to the witness after that and then go to his locker." JT said. She was glad he smiled a little. He didn't smile enough, he hardly ever did. She still didn't know why. Now they gather the remaining evidence today and get an arrestwarrent today and arrest Light on his way to school. that would be perfect, no one would know where he'd gone or that he was a suspect other then the judge who would have to sign a none disclosure agreement.

"You know L, you should smile more. Even in all the time I've known you I can still count the numbers of times I saw you smile on my fingers." JT said. There really was nothing more to discuss about the case, it was merely waiting until they got tot he hotel. She Watari had given up on trying to make L smile some time ago, because nothing seemed to work. Maybe she could get him to cheer up? It would be a long shot at best though.
 
L almost gave JT a look of disbeleif when she started talking about him smiling more and well.. truth was, she could probably count the times.. on one hand alone let alone both of the,.. it really had to be one of the rareist occasions, and sometimes occurred after a good case was cracked, this was one of those.. but now that smile was gone probably not to show itself again.. well thats what he thought anyhow.. who knew if JT knew methods to try and change that.. as he had a feeling she would at least try

"I don't understand what the big deal is.. I don't find the need or want to smile.. that's as simple as it gets.." it was something that probably would not change a while and already the limo was nearing the hotel before Watari pulled it up "Were here L,.. you might want to go get that laptop setup soon.." L once the car stopped wasted no time heading up to the elevator heading up to the suite they were in waiting for neither of them entering with his own key as he then started to setup the laptop ready to receive and record the footage as the other two entered "All setup for showtime when he arrives home.."

 
"That's just sad. It's healthy you know. Then again you seem to have a vendetta against a lot of things that are healthy." JT said, referring to his eating habits. Getting him to smile was like mission impossible. Probably a waste of time, but she liked to see him smile. She went upstairs with the both of them. She wasn't sure what to say right now so said nothing instead.

She took a seat next to L in front of the laptop screen and just in time too. Light entered his room. He put the mechanical pencil away, then opened the right drawer. Removed the fake diary and opened the secret compartment. Only to find it empty. But she saw something else. A big, somewhat humanoid looking creature. It was ugly and seemed to be decaying. The shinigami. "So that's what a shinigami looks like." She mumbled
 
Instead of responding to that, he just ignored the whole comment. He knew she was only joking around,.. but he ate the way he did, because he enjoyed snacking.. and sugar was the only thing that kept him at bay. He figured without it, issues would occur because his body would go into breakdown without it.. well that's at least what was a guess anyhow, L had never tried to give up his sugar fixation yet, and as he sat down he pulled out a stick of pocky and started to nibble at it,

It seemed the two of them decided to sit down just in time, Light entered and did what was expected the look of surprise crossing his face as he looked around for obviously his deathnote. L just could not help but gaze at what was obviously the shinigami.. and hearing JT say something about it he knew his eyes were not playing up. He had a feeling if others saw the footage, they would not see the Shinigami.. unless they had touched the deathnote.. it was his guess anyhow, since other wise the FBI agent would have said something about it.. "So you can see that thing as well.., I wonder if he will try and help Kira get back his deathnote.. or.. will he go now and find us.. or what."
 
"But, how, no one was in here..." Light mumbled. Or did they find all the tricks. He went over to his closet only to find the other pages missing too. The shinigami started laughing, loud... "Now this is fun, humans are sooo interesting." Ryuk said.
"I don't think it's on Light's side, I think he dropped the notebook and wants to see what's gonna happen. IT's like he's studying humans." JT commented.

But it was indeed amusing. "L damn you." Light muttered. It was obvious that only someone as smart as L could have found all his little tricks. "Why L?" The shinigami asked. "I left the doorknob on a specific angle, I put a piece of paper i between my door, but mot importantly I placed a mechanical pencil on the hinge. If anyone had opened the door it would have broken. Most people wouldn't have noticed the doorknob or the pencil, the one who was in my room did. Only someone as smart as L would have." Light explained to the shinigami.

"So now what are you going to do, you don't know his name or face, however if you made the eye-deal you'd be able to pick him out of the crowd and you still got those two pages on you." Ryuk said. Light looked at him, he knew the death god was right. But he didn't want to do it. "Alright." Light said. Ryuk smiled and placed his hand on Light's head, then removed it seconds later. "Congratulations, you now have shinigami eyes." He said.

"I guess we'll have to blindfold him when we arrest him. I bet he can see people's names when he can see their faces. I be that's how shinigamis know people's name. I wonder what the cost would be. I'm sure they talked about that before and Light turned it down originally, which means it must be a high price." JT said.
