11's POV

We made it back to headquarters and before anything else, Near ran to the bathroom with his normal clothes back on. He sighed in relief and slouched on the chair.

"I can't believe I have to do that one more time..," Near muttered and twisted his hair. I muffled a laugh.

"Wait, why did you have to dress up as a girl?" I asked him as Near slightly smiled.

"I did part of it for the humor. Next I would say that she would most likely be more comfortable talking to a girl than a guy," he answered as Rester escorted us out onto the limo.

"And where would we be going now?" I asked Near as I see that he brought another puzzle box with him and looked outside the window.

"Pay our respects to the dead," he said as we stopped by an old cemetery with a sort of foggy mist surrounding it. Near and I went down including Rester to look at the graves.

There were a bunch of names in here and the whole cemetery was almost full.

Naomi Misora, Raye Penber, Teru Mikami.

But there were four graves that caught my attention.

Here lies Quillish Wammy, Watari

Here lies L Lawliet, L

Here lies Mihael Keehl, Mello

Here lies Mail Jeeves, Matt

I bit my lip and clenched my fists to prevent myself from crying. I found myself kneeling down and looking and both of the graves.

Mello and Matt, weren't that bad. It was Kira's fault...Kira's fault for killing them. He killed Watari and L as well. I covered my face with my hands as I started to sob.

It was my first time seeing their graves. I hadn't even known that Mello and Matt had died until yesterday. Watari held a deep root to my past and L was a role model that I always looked up to my whole life.

"Don't cry, 11," he said and put a hand on my shoulder. I nodded and bit my lip, to prevent myself from crying. Near started to speak into his earpiece with the SPK.

"Gevanni, what are the reports on Misa Amane?" Near asked as I could hear a little bit on what's going on.

"She's in her room at this moment, watching some sort of TV drama," he said as Near shook his head.

"Do you see anything else in that room, that seems to look similar to Mikami's or to the original Death Note," Near said and twisted a strand of his hair. There was a long pause after.

"Wait...there seems to be a notebook in her hands. The outside is black and the letters are white and in Japanese. From direct translation, it means 'Death Note'," Gevanni said as Near nodded.

"How's it doing at the Mafia's base, Lidner?" Near asked as she sighed, I could hear keyboard clinching sounds in the background.

"Nothing much is going on, now that I see. Our monitor's cannot reach underground and no one is coming out," Lidner, or Halle said on the phone.

"And outside the cemetery, Rester?" Near asked as I heard who I think Rested was sigh.

"The only two inside are you two. Wait...two people entered inside. Wearing trench coats, hiding their identity," Rester as said as Near tapped the earpiece twice.

"Lidner, results on the hideout?" Near asked.

"Nothing happened," she replied.

"Gevanni. Ms. Amane?" Near asked.

"Two of her bodyguards, I believe, were set out," Gevanni replied as Near shook his head.

I scanned the area to see that the two body guards had a flower in each of their hands. They stood at the middle of the grave where it had a tall pillar standing.

The flowers were placed in front of it as the two of the bodyguards, left the cemetery. I squinted, looking at the person's grave and who it was.

"Light...Yagami..?" I asked Near as he nodded, sitting down and staring at all four of the graves in front of us.

"That was who Kira was. The person that Amane loved while L loved her," Near said as he took out what looked like Legos, one of Light, one of Misa, and One of L.

Misa was in the middle as L's Lego was facing her. Misa was turned around to facing Light. Light was just facing the background.

"We're going to exit out. Here," Near said, handing me a cap and a pair of shades. He wore his and pointed to the two bodyguards with a trench coat on. "Just incase they had Shinigami eyes," he said, putting on his cap and shades.

I put my hands in my pockets as Near did the same, I looked down while Near looked up, keeping watch on what the two bodyguards were going to do.

Just when we were at least one foot away from the gates for the entrance and the exit, I heard a gunshot. Near had suddenly grabbed me and tackled me down to the ground. I yelped in fear and closed my eyes, clinging onto Near for dear life. His chin resting on the top of my head as my body crashed onto the grass.

I heard footsteps walk away as I opened my eyes and saw over Near's shoulder that they were gone.

"Near, we're in the clear," I told his as I looked at him and smiled. Something seemed...off. "You can get off of me now..," I told him and slightly chuckled. Still, there was only silence.

I wiggled out of his grip and almost screamed when I saw that there was blood in my hands. I saw that Near was wearing all white and there was a red bullet wound on his back and he was laying in a puddle of blood.

"N-Near...," I said in shock, quickly getting out my cellphone and texted "11" on it. The SPK had came and took Near in as I rode with Halle, who was driving in a car.

"Wh-Why would he do that..," I said in my thought as I stared at my hand stained in blood. "Why would he go that high to protect me..?"
