"Hisoka...." Nobunaga's voice dropped, his hands ripping away from the paper as his fists clenched.

"Did you sell Uvo out?"


'oh god...tell me that's not true. please tell me that's not true-!'

Akari turned to face Hisoka, hands shaking slightly as her eyes held horror. Nobunaga drew his blade, pointing it at Hisoka. 

"Did you sell him out-?!" He barked, questioning him again. Akari had never seen him so angry....well the only exception was when he found out Uvo was dead

Hisoka didn't answer, a smile still on his face as he looked at a card he had pulled out. Anger boiled inside Akari at the prospect that Nobunaga was right....and that he had indeed betrayed the troupe. 


"I'll take that as a yes. Outta my way!" Nobu growled as he started for Hisoka, Shalnark and Franklin blocking his path. 

"Hold on....let's hear his explanation first!" Franklin cautioned, holding his hands up to stop him advancing. "Explanation-?" Akari muttered quietly, her gaze finally drifting to Hisoka. "What is there to explain?!" 

"Calm down!" Shal warned, also holding his hands up in defence. "Didn't the boss tell us that prophecies can be avoided, depending on our actions?"  Shalnark added, trying his best to stop Nobu from attacking Hisoka.

Akari remained silent, eyes never leaving Hisoka's resting figure. 

"Hisoka explain what happened this week." Franklin ordered, his hands dropping to his sides.

"I cannot~" 

Akari's eye twitched at his lack of response. "What?!" Nobu roared, anger once again flooding through him.


"All I can say is that the first verse is true...nothing more~


A growl once more emanated from Nobunaga. "You hear that?! Move!" "Just hold on." Franklin spoke again, his brows furrowing.

 "Hisoka, why can't you explain-?" Akari finally spoke, hands still shaking as her brown eyes met his golden ones. He looked back at her, smile dissipating as his eyes raked over her shook and angered expression.  

"If I were to tell you the reason, I would be telling you precisely what I cannot say~ Thus I cannot say~"

'god that hurt my head. couldn't he have just said it in a simpler manner-?!'  

"It isn't that I won't.." He continued. "I cannot. That's all that I can let you know~" Hisoka's eyes flickered from Chrollo, to Akari, and then back to Chrollo. "If you cannot accept my answer, then in order to defend myself...~" 

Hisoka rose, his card at the ready between his fingers.

"...I'll have no choice but to fight~"

Nobunaga glared at Hisoka, his sword still out.



"....Forget it." Nobu sheathed his sword, waving Hisoka off as he turned his back on him. "You're impossible to deal with."
