Gasps roamed the air once everyone had laid eyes on the huge front gates to the estate. It was ginormous and had looked like if it fell, the whole forest would fall with it.

"Would you look at that..." Leorio mumbled, double-checking the doors just to make sure they were actually that big.

"Enormous," I whispered.

"This is the front gate of the Zoldyck Estate," Miss Tour Guide enthused, with some people taking pictures in front of it. "No one who's entered has ever returned alive, which has earned this fate the nickname 'the Door to Hades.' To enter, you have to go through the door by the security checkpoint."

She pointed to a tiny hut. It seemed smaller than it usually would since it was next to the huge gates. Next to the hut was a much smaller pair of doors, that lead straight through the wall.

So much for the gates.

"But beyond that is private property, so this is as far as we can go."

"Ehh?" I squealed.

"Hold on! This is the front gate? The mountain is over there!" Leorio complained, pointing to overtop the gates- where the mountains peaked from.

"That's right. The Zoldyck family owns Kukuroo Mountain, every inch of it, not to mention all the surrounding land," The Lady explained with a wide smile. It seemed like a fake smile was glued onto her face by this point.

"So, what your telling me is this is their front yard?" Leorio struggled to comprehend.

"Miss Tour Guide?" Gon asked.

"Yes?"

"What are we gonna have to do to get inside?" Gon pointed to the gates.

"We could climb over it," I requested, thinking hardly if we'd be able to make it over.

"Oh, dear. You two were paying attention, right?" Miss Tour Guide's smile seemed to thicken into a distressed one.

"Yeah, but you didn't say-"

"If you go inside, you'll never come out again!" She repeated in a louder tone with her eyebrows slanted. She was getting mad. "It's an assassins' hideout."

"It's a shame." One of the shady men from earlier said, with a big sword over his shoulder. Both of the 'crusty' men walked up to the door with large and cocky grins.

Oh, here we go.

"Hmm?"

"A family of assassins no ones ever seen? If we can just snap a picture of them, we're gonna get a hundred million in reward money." The two men explained.
