His eyes widened as he toppled backwards, thankfully hitting the dumpster rather than the hard tarmac.

"Son of a...!" L quickly clamped his bleeding appendage between his legs to apply pressure, then fished his cell phone out of his pocket to speed dial Watari. After a ring, L spoke into the phone, "Beyond Birthday just escaped near the west exit, heading north, north-east."

Beyond didn't even bother checking if anything was broken. He scarpered, fast as he could.

From his vantage point, L relayed the situation to Watari. "He's limping, not too fast, heading for the busy intersection..."

Roads meant traffic, and traffic meant a ride out of there... if he could just get there without passing out...

After watching but not seeing anyone rushing after Beyond, L let out a low, frustrated scream. "...Damn it, he just car-jacked someone at the lights. Blue SUV, looks to be a...I can't tell from this distance, but it has a spare tire mounted on the back. Shit. Get someone to the victim and get the license plate number, then call the police station to let them know B is on the run."

B was laughing. A lot. He messed one-handed with the radio to get away from the annoying rap music, settling on a station blasting out pop music from the last decade. He accelerated, deciding to risk a speeding ticket.

After hearing Watari's 'yes, sir' L hung up. He resisted the urge to throw his cell phone out the window.
Now he needed to take care of his bleeding wrist. Then he'd go check up on Near.

Near was leaning against the bathroom door shaking. "Was....B right about him and L being the same?" He thought to himself, tears running down his face.

L wrapped a cloth he'd prepared for Beyond's stomach wound tightly around his wrist. The red seeped through, but it would do.
L hobbled to the bathroom and leaned heavily on the door. "Near."

Near's heart skipped a beat. "Y-yeah.......?" He said shakily.

"This is L, open the door," L rasped, but realized Near wouldn't be convinced if he were thinking straight, so he added, "And Beyond is a pathetic idiot with impossible dreams of becoming the next L."

Near swallowed and opened the door.

L was still holding his bleeding wrist with one hand, but managed to put an arm around the distressed boy. "Let's go, Watari will take care of these wounds."

Near nodded, softly crying. "I......I'm sorry I put you in.....d-danger....." He whimpered.
