Of flames and lighting

chapter 2

Kryiak skipped along, while the rest around her ran. Over the three hours the group had ran, she had learned that the old man, who wasn't old, was named Leorio and the blonde was called kurapika.

The group having meet during the travel to the exam site. Leorio had almost gave up but had a new bust of energy and though for some reason he did strip and almost left his briefcase behind.

Most of the time she let her mind wander, into the labyrinth of thoughts – no better time like running for three hours to create ideas of new weapons and designs as such!

But every now and then she would catch killua blue hues glances at her, "killua~" she smirked, looking ahead as she caught the boy once again glancing at her. "Why are you staring at me?"

"I'm surprised" the boy stated after a moment.

"Why?" she asked, cocking her head at the male.

"Cause everyone else seems to be running full out yet you're here skipping like a little girl"

She smirked, turning her vermillion colour head towards him, her sliver hues locking into his blue ones. "Well, this little girl is a lot more dangerous than you know"

Killua's lips twitched as he suppressed the blush wanting to grow, even though she said words like that, he couldn't help but be reminded of a cute little kitty cat pretending to be a lion.

Gon ran up beside her, the boys flanking her sides as stairs Apon stairs came into view. They continued up, running (skipping) up the stairs, slowly but surely gaining distanced. "I didn't notice that we were in the front" gon commented glancing back.

"it's because the Rythm isn't very fast, in fact not moving the fastest way is more tiring." Killua stated, "unless your kryiak..."

She grinned, giving the boys a peace sign, "I'm just that special"

Killua scoffed, "sure you are"

She pouted at his respond, but her remark was cut short as gon asked, "why do you want to be a hunter?"

"I don't really want to be a hunter" the sliverenette said, "I've heard it was something extremely hard and I thought it sounded interesting" he shrugged, "but I'm disappointed."

"And you kriyak?"

"hm? Well I'm a fully certificated blacksmith. A craftsman's"

"What really? That's awesome?"

"Yup," she grinned "but because I'm young and female, people don't believe me" her lips curling downwards into a frowned, "so I'm doing this to prove that I am capable!"

"That's awesome!" gon grinned.

"What about you gon?" both her and killua asked at the same time, turning towards their friend.
