By the time he woke up the next morning, L had severe drowsiness. He just couldn't sleep anymore, after that dream he had. Dying? Him? Why? What was that supposed to mean? L had so many questions he wanted answers to. Groggily getting up, he dragged himself to the bathroom. He splashed cold water on his face, itching his eyes. He rubbed his temples and reached over to grab his toothbrush. Staring into the mirror, he slowly scrubbed, sliding the brush from side-to-side.
Finishing up, L decided to take a shower before heading out for his daily walk. Grabbing the towel from behind the bathroom door, he hung it over the shower bar, and shook his boxers off. He hopped into the bathtub and turned on the water, sinking into the rising water. He closed his eyes to think. What on Earth would make him have a dream of him dying? By the hands of LIGHT, for that matter. It frightened him. Light had been his prime suspect for Kira. But they did so many different tests! Could it be that Kira really slipped right under their noses, right up to the point where he seemed to be wiped out of existence?
L couldn't stand it. He abruptly got up and grabbed his towel, furiously wrapping it around his body.

Light stayed up, drowning himself in tears and fear. What had become of him in that dream? T-That NIGHTMARE? Just the mere thought of it made him quiver. He thought he was going to lose consciousness. He would have gotten up to get some water, but he felt too weak to move. "M-M-Mom!" Light cried. His mother rushed into the room, already grasping a glass of water. Light reached out for the glass, and his mother placed it into his extended hand, closing his fingers around it. Shakily, Light took a sip from the glass. "A-Are you feeling better, L-Light?" Mrs. Yagami asked. Looking up, he caught his mother's warm smile, and he calmed down a bit. "I-Im fine. I just need... some space..." He huffed.
