A/n: did I watch barbie and the three musketeers and have my childhood dream of being a musketeer come back to me? Yes. Is this based off that? Yes. THIS WILL FLOP BUT I LOVE THIS MOVIE OK

You'd always been told you couldn't fight because you were a girl, but tonight... you were going to prove everyone wrong. It was prince L's coronation birthday party and you knew of a little plot the kingdom of Kira has to overthrow him. Would you let that happen? Absolutely not.

L was a head in the clouds type of person. If given the chance, he'd leave being a king behind to be a detective and inventor. He had absolutely no idea this was going on. And while he was trained in self defence being royal and all, against a whole force of enemies he didn't stand a chance without a sword.

Successfully sneaking into the ball under masquerade and fake name you prepared your attack. Your dress hid your sword, under a longer ball gown skirt hid a shorter one fit for fighting. You'd be prepared, ready to strike at any time. You kept your eyes close on the starry eyed prince. He looked bored honestly, like he'd rather be catching criminals and inventing flying machines.

You could tell who was in on the plot. Prince Light and his men all wore similar masks. You kept a close eye on them too. You'd trained day in and day out to be a musketeer and this was your chance to prove yourself. The princes life was on the line, you couldn't fuck this up.

"What are you up to Yagami..." you muttered to yourself, watching him weave through the crowd, suspicious for sure.

You went to go follow him when suddenly you heard the music change and a lord announced the last dance of the evening where L would pick a lady to dance with. Of course all the girls flocked to the dance door but you were set on following Light. Because for some reason, probably having to do with said rivalling prince, all of L's musketeers were nowhere to be seen.

"Excuse me"

You froze turning to see the prince himself behind you. Crap. Couldn't follow Light now...

"May I have this dance?" He asked.

"O-of course!" You replied, not letting your guard down.

All of Lights men seemed to pair up with girls and made sure that L was surrounded. But as long as you were dancing with him, he'd be ok. Stepping in and out of a box step you did your best to act natural.

"I can't help but feel I've seen you before..." he said.

"I can assure you we haven't..." you replied.

He had, you'd run into him many times. You worked cleaning the palace a while ago, pushed him out of the way of the chandelier when it fell. That incident was the first hint someone had it out for the prince. The rope was cut, then not long after L was working on an invention that almost took him to freaking space. If you hadn't jumped in to hold the ropes, that had also been cut, down... well, he'd be dead.

"Perhaps at another ball?"

"Impossible, this is my first" you replied.

"Hm. Odd, you seem so familiar"

You glanced at the party guests. You couldn't see Light anywhere, you knew he was up to something.

"Well, if this is your first ball I must know, where are you from? Was the trip out to the kingdom long?" L asked.

"I'm from... Italy... so yes fairly long" you lied.

"Must have been a tiring trip"

"It was. But enough about me... I hear you're a detective?"
