Chapter Text
The last thing Light ever remember was that staircase at the port, humiliated by Matsuda, that bastard, how dared he to shot at the God of a new world?!
The afterlife for those who used the Book was the nothingness, which isn't that but for a psychotic bastard like Light but also quite boring.
"...Yagami Light" a voice calls him, at start it's quite androgynous.
Light frowns, could be Misa? Did She bother him even in afterlife? Absurd.
He starts to open his eyes, striking odor of disinfectant strikes his nose, he blinks several times. Of course he doesn't have heartbeat but his lungs work just fine.
Looming on him, like a literal hawk there was L. In his usual barefoot perched position.
Light scream and the first thing is of course to get down. His arm where he got shoot was still loosen despite the scar.
"H-how... How is it possible!? Rem... Rem killed you two!" He shrieks, the eyes wide like a beast crawling in a corner "is this my inferno?! Answer me".
Watari just shows a simple eraser and Rem's old worn and worn out death note.
Light furiously looks back and forth, L stays perched on the iron table with an index against his lip, studying how Light reacts at every second.
"I remember more bravery from Kira" he descen walking towards him "I was fucking right"
"Did you just resurrected me to tell me "I was right"?! You freak" Light shout had forgotten how L tends to invade the personal space when he wants to.
L lazily looks down and smirk "well, seems Amane-chan and Takada were satisfied of your few inches. Admirable"
Light's eyes widen more as he looks down he was naked of course "Disgusting pervert"
L chuckled softly walking towards a chair as Watari handle him a pair of boxers wearing gloves.
Light accepts it, for now shallowing his price he can't blush since there isn't proper blood circulation "next what? Are you gonna handcuff me at you again?"
L side-eye him "Don't give me any ideas"
Light winces and looks around confused the newest technology "then why I am here? Speak"
L turns a laptop towards him showing the footage Near took in the mountain.
Light eyes wide, with his sane arm he grips the screen "what?! WHAT?! THIS CHARLATEN IS TAKING MY CREDIT!?"
Light violently turns to L gripping his neck "sick bastard you revevied me just for humiliate me?!"
One swift move and Light was down.
L sits on his stomach, to humiliate him more "listen here, Yagami Light. You are not in a position to make demands, it is not 2006 anymore with your VHS tapes and 500 yen TVs in the chips. I wanna get rid of this bastard as well as you want"
Light tries his best to get up but after all he's just a sentient corpse, he doesn't have that strength anymore "ok fine. I'll collaborate but just the two of us, no task force and lesser that brat of Near"
L smirk getting up "now we're talking the same language, Yagami Light"
