"Boss."

"Kurapika. Y/n. Don't take one step away from my daughter until the ambulance arrives. Got it?"

"But our assignment is to kill the Phantom Troupe."

"At the time, I thought that Neon would already be home. But instead, she's unconscious here, exposed to the Troupe. I absolutely must ensure Neon's safety. Stay here for the time being. I'm begging you two."

"..."

"Understood." we both said.

. . .

The ambulance finally came and the doctor checked up on Neon.

"You both were hired to be assassins, so stop hiding in this room, and go fight. Or did you get scared once the Troupe showed up?"

'I would really love to shove that cactus on the table up your ass right now.' I fought back the urge to do so.

"Uh... Actually, I requested that they both stay here. I understand that they've been hired by the Ten Dons, but I was worried about my daughter."

"I don't intend to sell you out. But you're both being paid well, so I expect you to do your jobs."

"..."

"I agree that we must do something. We could at least patrol this building."

"Yes, I suppose. But you both must come immediately if I call. My daughter's safety comes first."

"Understood."

"Yes boss."

We both patrol the building as many angry gang members are getting impatient.

'So loud...'

"Hello?"

"Oh, Kurapika?"

"Huh?"

"Whew, we finally got a hold of you."

"Gon?!"

"Yep, can we talk right now?"

"Uh, sorry, I'm in the middle of something. I'll call you back."

"Wait! Can you give me one minute? I have something to tell you."

"Killua and I ran into the Troupe. Actually, they caught us."

"What were you gust thinking?! Do you realize how dangerous they are?"

It then switched to Killua.

"I thought I knew, but after we met them, it became painfully clear. They're strong. Right now, we have no chance against them. That's why we need yours and y/n's assistance."

"We want to help." Gon said

We both looked at each other and I shook my head.

"That's ridiculous. We won't help you get yourselves killed." I spoke up

"Don't you want to know where their base is?"

"I have my own sources of information."

"Do you know all their powers?"

"Enough! Just stay away from the Troupe!"

"You're the chain user who killed one of their members, right? They're looking everywhere for you. If you won't treat us as friends or equals, we'll do whatever we must to help!"

"Kurapika... One of their members cried in front of us. He said that he couldn't forgive whoever killed his friend. I got really mad after seeing that. I couldn't let that go. We want to stop them!" Gon exclaimed "Please, Kurapika, Y/n..."

"I'll call you back." he said before hanging up.

'Couldn't forgive whoever killed his friend, huh? Well I can't forgive those who killed my clan. I will kill all of you spiders if it takes my own life!'

"Let's go, y/n."

"Yeah."

. . .

We both ran outside as an explosion happened. It was one of the guard and they seemed crazed. We hid inside as he shot his gun. Someone shot him and he finally stopped.

"Are you both okay? I found the corpse of one of the assassins! Someone's already inside the building!"

'Damn..'

~~

We both searched around to find the Troupe member. That was until we heard something happening in the big room but was interrupted with Light calling.

"You're late, Kurapika! Y/n! Hurry back right now! Stay at Neon's side!"

"Right, we're on our my."

"Damn it. I hate this guy..." I punched the wall "He cares about his daughter because she makes him good money..."

"Come on, y/n."

"I'm leaving this bodyguarding job after everything is over."

A thundering boom resounded through Yorknew City. Kurapika had no idea that the shock wave would lead to an unexpected development.
