A Cold Shadow (DimentioXMr.L[SPM AU])

Isolation

When L and Marvin had woken up back at the castle, they both had no memory of the event. When Blumiere asked them about any magic, the two boys would claim that they've never seen anything more than a simple levitation spell. And when L was asked about the streak of black color in his hair, he would simply reply that he was born with it.

All of the gates and doors to the palace seemed to be shut overnight, including the door to Dimentio's room. L had officially become one of the more higher-up servants and now went by Mr.L, Marvin surprisingly wasn't as high rising as Mr.L, but was not very far behind. But the real reason Mr.L wanted to rise in the ranks so badly was so he could actually see Dimentio again. He might've had his memories altered, but the fondness still remained.

-----One Year Later-----

Mr.L and Marvin laughed as they ran down the halls, everything seeming brighter in the reflection of the snow that had fallen outside. Marvin continued to dash down the hallway as Mr.L came to a stop in front of a door.

Mr.L: Dimentio?

Mr.L walked up and knocked on the door, a smile on his face.

Mr.L: Do you wanna build a snowman?

C'mon, let's go and play!

He turned his back and crossed his arms.

Mr.L: I never see you anymore!

Come out the door!

It's like you've gone away!

Mr.L slumped to the floor and closed his eyes.

Mr.L: We used to be best buddies!

And now we're not...

I wish you would tell me why!

Mr.L stood back up and pressed himself against the door.

Mr.L: Do you wanna build a snowman?

It doesn't have to be a snowman!

Dimentio: Go away, L...

Mr.L: Okay, bye...

Mr.L sighed and hung his head as he turned and walked off. He cast one last glance back at Dimentio's room before continuing down the hall after Marvin.

Later that day, Shadoo came to Dimentio's room. Dimentio sat on the side of his bed and flinched as a shadow streaked up one of the wooden posts. Shadoo pulled out a black-and-white-colored mask from behind her back and held it out to him.

Shadoo: The mask will help...

Dimentio put it on his face and Shadoo gently placed a hand on his cheek.

Shadoo: See? Conceal it...

Dimentio: Don't feel it...
