Mirror Room
Misa was the first one up. She was terrified to find that she was all alone in a strange room filled with mirrors in every direction. Her head was throbbing in pain and she winced as she stood up.
“Light?” she asked weakly. She looked for him, but he was nowhere to be seen.
“L?” she asked. Again, she was met with silence.
Misa was scared witless but her head hurt so badly that she just ambled next to a mirror and sat down. She decided she would try to find a way out once the pain subsided. She had fallen asleep again when she heard a raspy laugh coming from somewhere in the room. She looked up and saw who she thought was L.
“L!” she exclaimed happily. She started to wobble to her feet to greet him when she saw him laugh again. She was stunned at his behavior.
“Hmmm…it seems I have two extra toys to play with now…I really didn’t mean to involve you and the boy but I couldn’t leave any witnesses.”
“What? Why are you doing this, L?” asked Misa fearfully. “Is it because I called you a pervert? I’m sorry if Misa-Misa hurt you feelings but…” she stopped short when she caught a glimpse of the man’s eyes. They were blood red and gleaming with hate and malice. She had only now realized as she gazed further at the man that his long sleeved shirt was covering in blood and what looked like jam.
“You aren’t L…” she said quietly.
“Heh heh heh.” Laughed the stranger. “No, honey, I’m nowhere near being that son of a bitch.”
“Then…then w-w-who are you?” stammered Misa.
“Me? My name is Beyond Birthday.” Said BB.
“Beyond…Birthday…?” asked Misa, more to herself than to him.
Beyond moved closer to Misa and smiled as she recoiled from him, grinning like a Cheshire cat the whole time. When her back was against one of the mirrors, Beyond leaned closer and pressed his plump lips against Misa’s. He pulled back and grinned again at her shock and horror.
“Ya know, Misa-Misa, I think I’ll teach you a lesson about vanity today. When I saw that I had caught the world famous model-singer-actress in my net, I thought to myself that I would have to punish you.”
Beyond pulled up his shirt and revealed his burn scars to Misa. She gasped in pity and fear.
“I tried to kill myself Misa…because of L…its his fault that you’re here you know…he made my best friend kill himself…L and his selfish ways caused my dear friend A to commit suicide.”
Beyond pulled out a knife and cut a slit in his pale stomach. He allowed the blood to drip onto the blade and brought it to his mouth. He licked at it greedily as Misa retched. He then kissed Misa’s lips again. She felt so sick at the thought of Beyond’s blood on her lips.
“I think I’ll rape you later on, Misa.” Said Beyond “In fact, I’ll do it in front of L and the boy. Yes…let L see what Whammy’s House did to his backup…”
Beyond moved away slowly from Misa.
“Oh and I can only imagine what’s going through your little blond brain now, so I’ll answer the questions now. Yes, the boy is still alive. Yes, L is still alive. No, there is no way out of this room. Yes, I was serious about teaching you a lesson about vanity. Yes, you will be raped in front of L and your friend. And No, you will not make it out of here alive.”
At that moment a yellow mist began to leak into the room. Misa felt lightheaded and sunk to the floor. She knew she was losing consciousness again and allowed sleep to wash over her again.
Beyond smiled and left the room.
I love murder, thought B to himself.
[BREAK]
Light
Light's eyes opened and his vision was blurry. He squinted around until his eyes returned to normal. What he saw amazed him, it seemed that he was in a small room filled with nothing chrome studded belts. What the hell is this?, he thought to himself.
"Ah, good to see that you're awake, Light."
"Who are you?! What have you done with L and Misa?!" demanded Light.
"I don't think that you're in any postion to be demanding answers from me ." answered Beyond.
"Goddammit! Don't give me that bullshit! WHERE ARE THEY? WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOU?!"
"Temper, temper Light Yagami. All will be explained in due time, but for right now I have a present for you."
A glass tube rose up out of the floor. On it crouching in fear was Misa, she was fully conscience but was hogtied she was screaming out for Light, however the glass was soundproof. The door to the tube opened and Light rushed over and pulled her out of the tube.
"Misa! Are you ok?! What did that bastard do to you?"
"I'm ok Light, he drugged me with some type of gas and I woke up inside this tube."
Misa's eyes filled with tears.
"He said he was going to rape me."
"Like hell he is! I'll kill him!"
Light was struggling to free Misa from the chains but Beyond interrupted.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. I placed a very special bomb detonator in the lock on those chains. Tampering with it any of the links or the lock itself will cause it to detonate, destroying this entire building, you included."
Light growled angrily. Dammit, this must be that Beyond Birthday guy, the one who's after L. It couldn't be Kira, he wouldn't go through all this trouble just to kill L and besides he would want the entire task force dead so why would he only take the three of us? No, this is Beyond Birthday, but then again why are Misa and I here? We have nothing to do with whatever beef this guy's got with L…hmmm…wait a minute…I think I do know why were here…
"Are you Beyond Birthday?" demanded Light to the voice.
"Why yes I am, I assume L told you about me, I'm sure he told you that I was a sick and twisted man and that he himself is completely and totally innocent."
"He never talked about you much to me or Misa."
"I see."
"You didn't mean to trap Misa and I here did you? You wanted L and L alone, didn't you?"
"Yes, you two weren't supposed to be involved in this. This was between L and I and you two were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, you still must die."
"WHAT?!"
"You honestly didn't think that I would free you two, did you? Come now, Light, I expect more from you, as a To-Oh student."
"How in the hell do you know my name?! And how do you know about me going to To-Oh?!"
"I'm tired of talking to you Light. I have other matters to attend to…a certain detective in fact."
"No! Wait!"
The voice stopped.
"I guess he's gone to torture L. But how did he know my name?"
"He knew my name too." Said Misa softly.
"He did?"
"Yes, he called me by my name several times. Light, that man is insane, he cut himself pretty deeply in the stomach and licked the blood off the blade of his knife. Then he kissed me with his bloody lips and told me he was going to rape me in front of you and L for 'punishment'"
"Punishment?"
"He said I was vain and that he was going to teach me a lesson. Light, please don't let him rape me." Begged Misa.
"I won't, you have my word."
"Also…his eyes were very strange…"
"Strange? Strange how?"
"They were blood red."
"Blood red? No way, they were probably just contacts."
"Light, I wear a lot of contacts and I can tell when people are wearing them and he wasn't. That was his natural eye color, I'm telling you something isn't right about that man. And what kind of name is Beyond Birthday?"
"Something he made up no doubt."
Misa sighed. "I really hope that L-kun will be ok."
Light patted Misa on the head.
"Me too."
