"Hey, think we should go in now?"
"No, fool. We should wait for the boss."
"But why? We're gonna do the same thing anyway."
"Shut up and wait."
Light was now hearing whispers from the other side of what he thought to be a door. His kidnappers were finally here to do something to him.
<< What's next? Interrogation under a light bulb? >>
"That's it, I'm going in."
"Gus, don't - "
The door slammed itself against the wall and Light heard a pair of footsteps entering the room, later followed by the second pair.
"Hey, Kira. How you doin'? Still haging in?"
"Gus, stop this. Boss won't be happy about it."
"Nonsense. By the time he gets here, the interrogation will be over."
Suddenly Light felt the cover lifted up from his head after which he was instantly blinded by the light thrown from the lamp that was hanged over his head.
<< You've got to be kidding me ... >>
"Are you the Followers?"
"The who?"
"Nevermind ... Who are you?"
"We call ourselves the Gatheres."
"The gatherers of what?"
"Dunno, but it sounds cool, doesn't it?"
" ... "
"That's enought talking. We have some questions of our own."
"And why are you so sure that I'll talk?"
"Shut up, already."
"Fine ..."
"First question. How come you're the only full fledged death god?"
"Because I like it."
"No more stupid answers or you're dead."
"You won't kill me."
"Yeah? And why is that?"
"Because your boss neeeds me."
"How do you know that?"
"I know lots of things. I know everything about you guys, too."
"He, he ... I bet you wouldn't ever guess that -"
"That you're pretending to be gangsters? That pretty obvious, you know ..."
"Huh? Bob, this guy's nuts. We should get out f here and wait for the boss."
"I agree."
They exited the room and left Light alone again.
<< Idiots ... I can't believe that the actually took for granted my obvious bluffing. Anyway, at least I've bought some more time untill ... something happens. Either these guys kill me for not talking or I get rescued and get back to my work. Talk about what, anyway? The ony asked me how come I ... Wait, maybe this is what they want. Maybe they want to elarn from me how could the do that. >>
The door opened again, slower, and this time a different death god entered the room.
"I presume you are the one that those goons call "boss". Am I right?"
"You think you're pretty smart, don't you?"
"Pretty much, yeah."
"Don't get to cocky. It's bad for your health."
"So, what do you want from me?"
"Well, first I'm gonna cut you into several pieces and then I'm gonna experiment on them."
"So it's true. You do want to become full-fledged death gods."
"Of course we do. Being a human is kinda boring."
"You won't find anything."
"You can never know till you try."
"True."
"You should rest. We'll start tomorrow."
"You won't get the chance."
"We'll see about that." said the boss while closing the door behind him.
<< I have to think of something. Quick. >>
