"So we've got our Kira?" Matsuda questions anxiously, still not wanting to believe that L's ex was the one who killed the detective and others. It almost seemed too easy to assume- but why hadn't L figured it out if it was that simple?

Light nods, his eyes scanning over some papers. "I believe so. I still find it so unusual that someone so young could be a murderer like that." Light sighs as he adjusts his head back down at the papers. Skye shifts in her seat as the melancholic mood of the room seeps into her. She didn't want to believe that her good friend M was the killer that everyone says she is.

"No problem! We just gotta find her now!" Matsuda exclaims, earning a whimper from Skye. Light and Matsuda turn to her, eyebrows raised in suspicion.

"Is something wrong darling?" Light questions, wrapping an arm around the girl. She snuggles her head into his chest and sighs.

She hesitates to speak. "I find it awfully hard to believe that M is Kira. She's known my name all this time, and she's known L's true name longer than just last week. It wasn't her I'm telling you! Believe me if she was Kira there would be a lot more people dead than just Kira." Skye pleads with the brunet, as Light bites his lip. He didn't want her to find that part out. Light knew all along that M had always known L's name, but he now he needed more evidence to frame her. There was no way Skye could ever find out his secret.

"You make a fair point. I'm not sure yet, but M is our best bet. Why don't you call her and ask to her. Just don't include the part that we suspect her, alright?" Light suggests, pecking Skye on the cheek, turning her face tomato red.

Skye glares at the phone for a few moments before picking it up. She gulps and lifts it up slowly, dialing M. Light nudges her encouragingly.

Meanwhile, the three Musketeers were still discussing the case (and totally not procrastinating.) They all freeze in unison as M's phone rings, blasting the ringtone.

M eyes it oddly as she looks at it. She then groans and allows it to ring through.

Matt smirks and cocks his eyebrow. "Who was that, Light Imagay?" He teases, earning a light (no pun intended) slap on the head from Mello and M.

"Actually it was Skye. She's that friend that you want to meet, Matt." M retorts back as Matt shuts up and his face goes red. Mello scoffs.

"What did she want?" Mello interrogates M, as M just replies with a quick sigh.

She shrugs her shoulders lazily. "Probably her and Light trying to get me to come back so they can arrest me for supposedly being Kira. Light's trying to pin it on me to protect himself."

The phone rings again, only to earn a frustrated grumble from M. She narrows her eyes and hastily clicks the answer button.

"Hello?"

Skye's energetic voice pipes up from the other side. "Hey, friend! How's life going for ya?" She says in a strange tone, no attitude. M thought it was strange how Skye also avoided using M's name. Perhaps she feared that others were eavesdropping on this conversation.

"What do you want? I'm a bit busy at the moment." M didn't plan to sound rude or harsh, but perhaps her current situation made it sound that way.

Skye hesitates on the other end of the line. "Busy watching shirtless ripped men swim? But that's besides the point, are you alone?"

M freezes and turns her head slowly back to see the dead silent Mello and Matt with interested expressions. She exhales before responding.

"Yes I am. But I could ask the same of you, Skye."

M thought it was frankly impossible that Skye was alone. Rather it be Matsuda or Light, she knew Skye didn't call M alone.

Actually Skye doesn't talk much to M, rather they communicate by commenting sarcastic things on each other's Wattpad profiles.

"I'm talking to you alone, but I'm not alone in the room." She responds honestly,-well partially honest. Light was sure listening in to this call.

"Anyways," Skye drags out the 'anyways,'"We need you to come back to headquarters. We need your help on some things." She explains earning an annoyed scoff from M, who was 100% done with this conversation.

"Yeah, I'll have to pass. I'll come back when Light trusts me more. If you need anything, I'm chillin' at Annie Leonhardt's house. Not literally 'chilling' but- you know what I mean, right? ~Adios." M ends the call before Skye has a chance to answer back. Skye sits appalled (with an outraged Light), while M panics.

M knew they were coming for her, and that she would be known as a wanted person in a few days or so. But she did know one thing.

Annie Leonhardt wasn't going to lend M her Attack on Titan manga any longer.
