Head canon: you watch everything L does, make sure he's safe and if anyone tries to cross him you always get to them first.

You waited under a streetlight in the dark, dressed in all black just to add to the intimidating look. It seems someone is trying to overthrow L, you weren't letting that happen, no fucking way.

The kids name was Light Yagami, or Kira as the world knows him. You've found yourself on a bit of a tightrope here. You know how he kills, but you can't stop him since he always managed to find some backup way to kill. But you knew he needed your face, which is why you were wearing a hood and face mask. You looked sketchy as hell but you weren't risking anything.

Here's the twist though. You've never actually met L.

He's never talked to you but you're sure he knows of you since you've made the news a few times. Every time a criminal is trying to find L, you step in and shut them up. You've caused lots of fights. Everyone is so sure that L pays you for this, but nope, you just really admire him.

You're the third biggest shadow apart from Kira and L. No one knows your name, no one has fully seen your face. They can tell from your voice your gender and all that but nothing else. So you were dubbed 'L's guardian devil' by the media. Not an angel, angels wouldn't start fights...

You could see the student walking home from cram school in your direction, it was now or never.

"Light Yagami... Kira"

He stopped in his tracks and turned to face you. When he saw your hood and mask he suddenly realised who you were.

"I had the feeling you'd show up eventually, guardian devil" he said.

"We can settle this like adults or fight like children. I know how you kill, I've seen the book. It would be a shame if everyone found out wouldn't it? I'm not meant to get involved in cases, just protect L. But this isn't out of my realm of possibility" you replied.

"A mask and hood won't protect you forever"

"The shadow cast over my name will"

He was silent, you got him there.

"Now I'm warning you Yagami. DO NOT touch L, no NOT write anything to do with him in your little dairy of death. I have my ways, you know what I can do" you said.

"You expect me to be intimidated by sass and mystery? You're not even taller than me so don't pull the looks card either" he replied.

That cocky little-

"Look Kira, even if you wanna be all cocky and stroke your god complex. You know full well what I can do. Count this as a warning, get anywhere near L and there will be consequences, I will be back"

With those words, you turned on your feet and walked off, leaving the killer to think about his next move. You'd pushed him into a pretty tight corner. If he wanted to get rid of you, he'd have to find a way around your ways. He did know what you were capable of and didn't want to be the next person who mysteriously goes into debt or mysteriously has their weapon stash burned. He had to walk carefully if he wanted to avoid you, L and the police.

You'd be back, you knew it.

You walked down the empty streets, ready to head home and pass out. All that waiting late into the night made you tired.

"Impressive, guardian devil"

You stopped in your tracks.

Who the fu-

"It's amazing how everyone thinks I'm paying you for this, they think you're some skilled con artist when really you're just a girl with a passion"

Wait... I?

You turned to face the voice. Your eyes met a boy dressed exactly like you in a hood and mask.

"It's nice to finally meet you (y/n), I'm L. But you probably already figured that out" he said.

"Impressive. I thought I'd wiped my identity off the face of the earth" you replied.

"It takes a lot of digging but all hospitals keep a record of each child born there"

"All except you"

"Who said I was even born in a hospital?"

He got you there. Man, he really was smart.

"Anyway, the reason I'm even confronting you is because you could be of use to this case. You managed to figure out Light was Kira and claim to know how he kills without any help, you have skill. Plus, I should probably provide for the one who's going out of their way to protect me" he explained.

"Alright. But I have one condition" you replied.

"Name it"

"You need to get at least three hours of sleep a day, I can tell from those eyebags you're not getting the sleep you need"

Alright... he was expecting money or asking for a place to stay.

"Ok? I can live with that. Now why don't we go someplace out of the public eye and take these masks off. I'd like to know the face of my guardian devil"

"Only if I get to see the face of the fallen angel"
