"Oi! Whose there? Show yourself!" Killua shouted.
My eyes adjusted to the darkness as the lady from the counter appeared. "Killua-sama, Gon-sama and Kaya-sama, right? The receptionist desk is over there. So please register for a match on the 200th floor today." I narrowed my eyes at the woman. "You won't be able to register after midnight, so please be careful."
"Was she the one who let out that murderous aura?" Gon asked us.
"I can't tell," Killua answered.
The woman faintly smiled. "By the way, there are currently one hundred, seventy-three contestants on this floor."
Um... Okay?
The woman continued, "And starting from the 200s, all weapons are allowed." I nodded approvingly. Now, that's some useful information! "So do whatever you like. Also, you will no longer receive prize money on the 200th floor. You will now fight for honor, so please understand that if you're going to participate."
Our eyes widened as a card appeared next to the woman. It landed in front of my feet. "No... Please no...," I muttered, looking down at the card. I looked back up and saw a certain man standing behind the woman.
"Eh?!" The woman took a step to the side and ran away in a quite girly way... Well she is a woman so I guess that it's normal, but I'm also a girl but I don't run like that-Oh, I'm getting of topic.
The creep turned to face us. "Hi-Hisoka," Killua stuttered, eyes wide with fear. "Why are you here?"
"Yeah," I said as I found my voice back. "What are you doing in this place?"
Pedo clown put a hand on his forehead and answered, "It's hardly that strange. I love fighting..." I deadpanned at that. We already know, trust me. "And this is a temple of fighting. And why are you here?"
When we didn't answer he said, "Just kidding. This was no coincidence. I've been waiting for you. Remember how you ordered airship tickets over the cybernet? With a little effort, it's possible to determine where and when someone will arrive." I felt shivers running down my spine. He basically stalked them! "Well, I knew that you would come here eventually. And so, as a veteran, I have a warning for you three."
I took a defensive stance in front of the two boys. "It's still too early for you two boys..."He looked at me. "And girl." My eye twitched. Hisoka held his arm out. "To step on this floor." I bit my lip as he aimed really strong murderous intent to us. "How early depends on you."Hisoka sat against the wall. "Turn around, it's too early right now."
Killua got a tick mark. "That's stupid! We just got up here..." He was about to step forward but stopped when Hisoka reached his hand out.
"I won't let you pass," he said, murderous intent leaking out of him. "Not that you could anyways..."
"Shut up!" I grumbled. "As if we will let someone like you stop us! Right, boys?" I turned to the two other boys.
"Y-Yeah..." Was their reply.
"Kil, Gon, that didn't sound convincing at all," I deadpanned. Gon sweat-dropped.
"Kil..." I heard Killua mutter. I ignored him and looked back at Hisoka.
"Like I said, we won't let someone like you stop us." I told him.
The murderous intent became stronger and I focused on NOT running away. Seriously, my mind was telling me to run away. But I couldn't leave Gon and Killua alone with this perverted clown. I scowled when Gon started walking forward with much difficulty.
"Gon, don't!" I told him.
I had the strong urge to face-palm when Killua followed Gon's example.
"Don't be reckless!" An all too familiar voice said from behind us. Killua and Gon stopped. We turned around and saw Wing walking in the hallway.
"Wing-san!" Gon said.
"You have no defense against his Nen," Wing said.
"Nen?" Gon and I asked simultaneously.
"Right now, you are like someone standing naked in a blizzard, wondering why it's so cold," Wing continued. "If you continue straining your body like that, you may die."
"This is Nen?!" Killua said angrily. "He can stop us from moving forward through willpower? Don't lie!"
"Yes..." Wing closed his eyes. "I was lying."
"I knew it," I muttered.
"Though technically I wasn't lying completely. I will teach you the real Nen. So retreat for now." Wing said.
Gon turned to the woman. "Ne, oneesan..."
"Oh, yes?"
"What happens if we don't register for a fight today?" Gon asked.
"Gon-sama and Kaya-sama..." I hummed in response. "You would have to start again, from the first floor." She turned to Killua. "However Killua-sama refused to register once before. So if he fails to register once again ,his commitment will be questioned, and he will be banned from participation."
"Hey Wing-san," Killua started. "If we back down now, will we be able to return here by midnight?"He asked.
Gon and I shared a look before giving Killua a small smile. Wait, What the-Did I just smile?! Eh?!
"That depends on you." Was Wing's answer.
At Wing's house.
"Simply put, this is Nen. Nen refers to the ability to manipulate your aura, also known as life energy," Wing explained to us. He started writing on the board as he continued his explanation and we listened attentively. I never knew that Nen would be so complicated... And so dangerous. Apparently you could KILL Someone with your aura, wow. I continued listening.
Wing put his hand on a wall. We watched how aura was surrounding him.
CRACK!
Wing just made a huge dent in the wall! What the hell?! We looked at him with shocked expressions on our faces.
Wing turned back to us. "If you don't protect yourself with aura...Your body will be crushed."
Killua and Gon looked at him shockingly and I started hyperventilating. WHAT THE HELL DID I GET MYSELF INTO?!
A/N: Yeah I know that there wasn't much Killukay (Shipname for Killua and Kaya :3)in this chapter, but I honestly couldn't find an appropriate moment in this chapter to add some fluff. Next chapter will have some fluff, I promise !Also sorry if the romance is so slow.
