"You have to understand, that this isn't a moment that he's capable of taking a private call." Watari said.

"Its very urgent," Nate stressed even more. "Its about the Kira case, Watari... I just..." He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to remember. "If things are how I remember, then, um... this guy from... that place. He's Kira and... ugh! I didn't watch a lot of season one!"

Flopping into one of Roger's chairs, he tried to regain his composure.

"Haigu... Higu... Higuchi! That was his name! He has the notebook, but he's not Kira. Yagami is... gosh, I hope this is a secure line... Yagami Raito! He lost his memories for the time being but when Higuchi is captured, he will get them back. He's using Amane Misa... she's going to manipulate Higuchi for him! Ugh, this is all so confusing!"

"Higuchi?" Watari repeated. "Who is Higuchi?"

"Gosh darn it, Watari!" Nate groaned. "Please, I need to talk to him!"

"Nate he's...he can't be more than ten feet from Yagami Raito at all times right now." Watari replied apologetically.

"And what, you can hear the phone ten feet away?" Nate groaned. "Watari, he's going to die! I can save him! Please!"

"Die?" Watari repeated. "But he's handcuffed to the man you accused of being Kira."

"Watari!" Nate continued before he looked at Mello, pleadingly. "Please, make him listen!"

Mello jerked the phone out of Nate's hand and shouted into it.

"Watari, you put L on right NOW!" Mello demanded.

"Mello!" Roger breathed in alarm.

"That was kind of harsh," Nate snorted, though he smiled a little.

"...He's going." Mello told Nate with a nod.

"What's this all about?" Roger asked the boys.

Ignoring the elderly man, Nate took the phone and swallowed his nerves.

Before he had just assumed he was talking to a crazy man or maybe Lawliet, but this... this was really L.

There was a long moment where he heard absolutely nothing over the other end of the phone before another distorted voice came through.

"This is Ryuzaki." It informed.

"...The name's even the same as the show," Nate commented - both in awe and to let L know that it was him.

"Nate, you sound a great deal like mine, but there are subtle differences." L admitted.

"Um... okay then," Nate breathed. "Um... do you remember when I said what I said before about the whole... dying thing?"
