"What's wrong, (y/n)?" Leorio asked me, but I didn't reply.
I was too scared to reveal my true colors.
"(Y/n), look at me!!" He started to yell, forcefully lifting my head.
"Now tell me, what's the matter-" he then noticed my eyes, pausing his sentence.I knew it. He thinks I'm a monster.
"Woah, you have pretty eyes, how come you didn't tell me about them?" He let go of my head, which left me in pure shock. "Kinda ironic how you're a Shinobi and Kurapika is a Kurta, it's like you guys were meant to be or something—"
"Woah, cool!!" Gon noticed my other eye as well, and seemed pretty fascinated. I don't think Killua really cared much.
"You guys.. aren't disgusted?" I asked, feeling bewildered. Killua ridiculed. "It's just a stupid color. Why would we be?"
"But my eye is said to cause curses and stuff-"
"Who gives a damn?! I've been traveling with you for a bit and not one thing has happened to me that left me in the dust. C'mon, lighten up." Those were the words of Leorio, which made me feel a bit better about myself.
"..thank you guys." I told them, smiling in relief. I noticed the things that they were buying, the beetle phones I had mentioned before.
"What are those for?" I asked.
"These cellphones are much better than your current one. Would you like to buy one? They can be used anywhere in the world with no connection problems, has a translation tool for over 200 languages, video camera, a TV to watch and record, water proof, and more!" The man behind the counter asked. Honestly, I think my current phone is better. Insect phones aren't really my style.
"Uhm, no thanks. I'm happy with the phone I have now." I replied.
"C'mon, seriously?" Leorio scoffed. "If you can't afford one I'll just buy it for you."
"No, I can, I just don't want one-"
"She probably just doesn't want to seem tacky," Killua laughed.
"Oh really then, leave me alone!! I'm fine with the phone I have now. I'm not gonna buy another one if this one functions properly." They really liked to tease me, except for Gon. I had major respect for him.
"Anyways, what are you guys going to do now?" I asked.
"Well, we were going to go to the upcoming auction but we decided not to! We want to focus on Greed Island more for now," Gon told me.
"Oh, okay! I don't think I'm gonna go either. I might visit the hotel that Kurapika works at, since I know that he's going to volunteer to help out with the auction or something. The auction is tomorrow, correct?" Gon nodded as a response.
"I guess I'll just stay with you guys for the rest of the day until the auction comes up, since I don't really have much to do at the moment. My main goal is to find the phantom troupe, which I'll do tomorrow since there's more time on my hands."
"Okay, sure!"
———————————————————————————
Today was the auction, but I heard things weren't going so well. I had a gut feeling I shouldn't have went, which is why I didn't. But I didn't tell the others that that, incase my instincts were completely wrong.
Many people who had attended the auction had already gone missing. It was all over the news around town, so I decided to watch it. Just a few minutes later, I got a call from Kurapika.
"Hello? This is (y/n). Is there something wrong?" I asked.
"The phantom troupe invaded the auction and assassinated many people, including some people that I work with. We have to do something now before it's too late. Please come to Hotel Bietacle in ten minutes at the latest," He said from the other line.
"Oh, r-right." He hung up the phone almost immediately, it seems like this was a really big emergency. I better go now. I took a taxi so that I could get there faster.
"Head to Hotel Bietacle as fast as you can! I'd like at least less than ten minutes if you can," I told the driver. I should probably tell Leorio about this, so that he can pass the situation onto the other two. I called Leorio, but he wouldn't answer. Weird. Oh well, he's probably busy helping Killua and Gon. He should find out eventually, anyways.
The taxi arrived at the hotel, as I immediately tipped the driver and dashed out the yellow car door. I entered the hotel, seeing Kurapika waiting for me.
"I'm going to capture one of the Phantom Troupe's members, you are welcome to come with me." He said in the same, serious tone. I nodded confidently, there's no way I'm backing out.
"But Kurapika, how are you going to do that?" I asked. "I haven't even heard a plan yet."
"With my chains." Suddenly, he summoned chains made up of nen, each chain seeming to have a different ability. I was amazed."What about you, (y/n)? I haven't gotten the chance to see your ability yet," He asked. I used nen and showed him my flames, which astonished him.
"That will be useful."
