A/n: another apocalypse AU!

It was cold and dark, you were freezing but you didn't want L to be cold, so he had the only blanket. You watched out the windows holding a gun as he slept, it had been weeks since he'd been able to sleep, he was so exhausted so you wanted to make sure he got some sleep.

You scanned the area for raiders hiding among the rubble while staying as out of sight as you could. The old taskforce building was practically falling apart, the streets were covered in broken glass, rocks and wood from broken buildings, empty and crashed cars, people's bags and clothes as well as contents from raided shops lined the roads. It was a wasteland.

Six months ago, Kira won. He'd killed every criminal on the planet, and anyone who was against him. Leaving over 80% of the worlds population dead. Without enough people to run companies, supply food and electricity, anarchy broke out. All of Kira's insane worshipers had formed kind of a union, they all worked together at a base and would go out killing others for supplies, or if they found out you weren't on Kira's side, they'd kill you.

Anyone who hated Kira, or just feared for their life, was left on their own to survive. Kira has bought the end of the world, he was trying to create a new one, but it's never going to work. That's not stopping him from trying.

When the anarchy broke out, the whole Kira taskforce was still alive, but one by one, as they went out to scavenge, they never came back. It was just you, and L.

Earlier today you'd heard gunshots, so you were staying up to make sure nothing happened to you or L. You had to make sure L was ok, he'd already suffered enough.

He got hurt while scavenging the other day, he'd cut his leg really badly, it hurt him to walk. Luckily you had bandages, but nothing for the pain.

You kept all your supplies in a bag so that if you had to run, you could grab it and go. It contained food, water, a first aid kit, extra clothes, weapons and a radio. You could tell you'd have to risk it and leave taskforce soon, maybe hijack a car so you could make an escape to a town further away from where all the Kira supporters dwelled.

The plan was to get from Tokyo to the other side of the country, make it out to the middle of nowhere and there'd be less of a risk of getting raided or killed, you could set up a base.

You were snapped out of your thoughts by the sound of a gunshot, you jumped, cocking your gun and pointing it out the window. You could see flashes in the distance, possibly raiders setting something on fire. It wasn't safe, you had to leave. Now.

You ran over to L and shook him awake.

"L! L!" You whispered.

He began to wake up.

"What?" He mumbled.

"We have to get out of here, it's not sa-"

You were cut off by the sound of another gunshot.

You grabbed L by the arm and pulled him to his feet. You grabbed the blanket and the bag of supplies and the both of you carefully made your way down to the ground floor. You checked all the taskforce cars until you found one that was unlocked. You didn't have keys, but you could start the car if you jammed something into the keyhole hard enough.

"Get in" You said.

L, still waking up, threw everything in the car and jumped into the passengers seat. You grabbed a coat hanger off the floor and jammed it into the ignition, the car stared up. You jumped into the drivers seat and locked the doors, bringing to drive off. Away from taskforce, away from the gunshots.

"What's going on?" L asked.

"There's gunshots and fire nearby, we have to get as far as away as we can before it's too late. We stop for no one, we only stop if we need to get supplies or hijack another car" you explained.

"How close?"

"I could see them in the distance... hows your leg?"

"Sore..."

"I hope it's not infected..."

You began to leave the city, driving into the more suburban areas.

"Where are he heading?" L asked.

"I don't know yet, away from here. Trying to get into the countryside would be a good start" you replied.

You turned a corner and suddenly something ran in front of the car. You slammed on the breaks and cane to a halt.

"What the-"

Barking... it was a dog.

You looked out the window to see a border collie with messy fur and a broken collar.

"Should we keep it?" You asked.

"It can help us hunt and sniff out food, let it in" L replied.

You opened the doors and stepped outside, looking around for any raiders or Kira worshipers.

"Hey boy" you called.

The dog ran up to you, happy to see a human. You gave it a scratch behind the ears.

"Wanna come with us? You'll get lots of snacks! Jump in"

The dog didn't need to be told twice, it jumped in the backseat and sat down, panting and looking around excitedly. You got back in the car and began to drive again. L leaned into the back seat to check the collar.

"The only thing it says is Oliver. No number or address... not that it matters now days..."

"Oliver... that's nice, I'll call him Ollie"

L grabbed a water bottle from the bag and an empty container that once held a cake. He poured some water into it and put it on the back seat, Oliver drinking the whole thing.

"Can dogs eat canned food?" He asked.

"Depends what it is" you replied.

"Pineapple"

"Oh yeah my dog when I was little loved pineapple"

As you drove, L gave Ollie some food seeing as he must be really hungry from the whole situation the world has fallen into. Eventually, Ollie lay down on the back seat and fell asleep, obviously very tired from being a stray for so long. L looked tired too, and this road trip would be a long one, so you tossed him the blankets and told him to try and get some more sleep.

He leaned against the window and wrapped himself up in the blanket.

"You know... even though the world has gone to trash, I'm glad the one I got stuck with was you..." he said.

"I'm glad I got stuck with you too. You're smart, you're the reason we're still alive" you replied.

"You play part too, you're the one that knows how to fight"

"I guess. By the way, of you see masks while we're driving or scavenging, grab them, that way if we meet Kira supporters they can't see our faces, they can't describe us to Kira and we'll survive"

"Good idea, I'll keep an eye out"

"Now to go sleep, you need it"

"Ok ok... I love you, remember that"

"I love you too. I'll find us somewhere to stay. Don't you worry your pretty little head about it hun..."
