[Video] January 22, during and just after the earthquake
[L has settled into a routine: during the early morning hours until around noon, he's typically just outside the city limits, hanging out inside a huge rusted bell that's been turned on its side. With the elimination of Zone 2, much of the debris has been moved outside the city, and being a true creature of habit, L followed a familiar item when it had been relocated. While the old bell is a comfortable place for him to work on his notes, the debris-scattered resting place for some of Zone 2's old ruins is outside the city, and it's therefore not the safest place to be if the ground is going to start trembling.
Which it does. L doesn't have quite enough time to crawl outside of the bell before it shakes free of its new, shallow groove, gaining momentum and rolling toward the desert. It's a bumpy ride, and there are plenty of obstacles, but most of them barely slow the thick, heavy bell down. During a particularly rough bump in which the bell hits a pile of debris and skips right over it, thudding back to earth and continuing in its path, L's communicator turns on and joins him in tumbling around the inside of their rapidly spinning prison. L transforms into his Weapon form, since stainless steel will hold up a little better to the violent ride than flesh and bone.
Finally, the queasy, tumultuous rolling stops, but not before a few violent pitches manage to turn the bell from its side, effectively trapping its occupant underneath it. L changes back, with some scrapes and bruises but no major injuries.
Despite this good luck, something's wrong. The Earthquake was enough to send the bell rolling a good distance from what residents typically consider "safe". He hasn't been thrown very far, but he's far enough from the city that he can feel the effects of the madness wavelength for the first time.]
Oh...
[He wraps his arms closely around himself, retreating against the side of the bell and drawing his knees toward his chest. His communicator screen illuminates a pale, wide-eyed face for a few moments before he reaches for the device with a shaking hand. His gaze and tone are rigid when he speaks into it.]
Someone. Get me. Quickly.
