* ''Characters'': L, Light, [[TheMcCoy Mello]], [[TheSpock Near]], [[TheKirk Matt]], [[TokenGoodTeammate Linda]]
* ''Synopsis'': AU, episode 24; L fakes his death, and sets in motion a plan to catch Kira; but when Mello and Near don't cooperate, he enlists Matt, in hopes that the latter can convince Mello and Near to get along.
* ''Comments'': Definitely worth reading, with moments of both [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome intensity]] and [[CrowningMomentOfFunny hilarity]]. Quite a few PlotTwists even with only twelve chapters, and some minor characters are greatly expanded upon.
