Doctor Note - A Doctor Who x Death Note Crossover Story

13. L's Thoughts

L sat on the couch and just stared forward at nothing.

It must be Light. Kira must be Light. He thought, both the Doctor and the Janitor have slipped and said that Light was Kira. He thought back to when the Janitor basically yelled it out, well, he didn't really slip and let it out. He looked like he wanted something to be over.

He placed his hand on his chin and bit on his thumb nail, but what? Is there something greater than Kira at play here?

The Janitor walked through in front of the detective and stopped, looking at something above L's head.

"Yes, you idiot. Something greater is at play here, that's what I've been trying to say!" He exclaimed.

L snapped out of his trance, "pardon?"

The Janitor groaned. "Forget it," he continued cursing as he pushed the cleaning cart out of the room. L just watched him.

L looked up above his head at the direction that the Janitor was looking at, nothing there. He shrugged it off.

"Now, what should I do? Everyone seemed to have left into different places at the same time." L murmured.

Suddenly the phone rang, it was Watari, "what's wrong Watari?"

"L! Three criminals have died, they're reporting it on the TV right now!" He said quickly.

L froze for a second before scrambling around, trying to find the universal remote. He found one and pressed 'on'. The TV turned on but there was another episode of Doctor Who on the TV. "Dammit!" L screamed, pressing 'pause'.

Everything was silent. L waited, that's weird, he thought and jumped up and looked down the hallway. He saw the Janitor, in mid-stride, but he wasn't walking and Matsuda was walking up the corridor to the room he was in.

"What the?" L said as he looked at the universal remote. He pressed 'play' and the Janitor and Matsuda started walking again.

"L!" Matsuda yelled as he noticed that L was there. L pressed 'pause' again. Everything stopped again.

He then pressed 'rewind'. Everything started moving backwards. He started walking back to his couch and pressed 'stop' then 'play'. Suddenly he tripped, and the universal remote slipped through his fingers and fell hard onto the hard floor.

It was quite weak for a remote, as soon as it touched the floor, bits of plastic and metal springs and machinery sprayed outwards.

In L's mind that was as bad as a mushroom bomb exploding, "GAH!" he groaned.

He knew that the universal remote was possibly going to be the greatest weapon against Kira and setting everyone in their right dimensions, but there was no saving the remote now.

He kicked the couch, realising that he didn't have shoes on and hobbled to the couch, mumbling angry words that he doesn't normally use.
