No Regrets || HxH X Male OC

Chapter 10

Kalen would definitely be lying if he said Mori wasn't skilled with Nen. He could feel the poison swirling in his body. God, it hurt so much. He wanted to scream. And cry. But he obviously did none of those things.

"I knew you were still weak", the man said.

Kalen bit his lip. His Nen ability was only a last resort meant to escape the lab. The physical toll it took on him was disregarded when it was created. It wasn't made for any other purpose.

He couldn't win. Not with all this poison in him that Mori had very good control over. Kalen was currently extremely glad he hadn't eaten anything for the past few days, otherwise with the nausea he was experiencing now it would have all come back up.

He was contemplating weather to just admit defeat (which he would probably never do), or try to fight in his current condition. His stubborn ass chose the latter. Fuck he hated himself.

~•~

Kalen was out of breath and exhausted. He wanted to die right now. It had been nearly an hour and he was covered in blood. Some his own and some Mori's. He hated it so much, the crimson liquid was sticky and disgusting, he was internally gagging.

Mori still had the upper hand, considering he pretty much had half control of Kalen's body. He would have full control if the boy wasn't putting so much effort into keeping his own body in control.

Maybe he was still weak compared to Mori but his ability was pretty much a direct counter to Mori's. Even while the chemicals and poisons were being swirled in his body, controlling him, Kalen was able to control the blood in his body half the time. 

This was really making Mori mad. Every time he almost killed Kalen internally, the brat would counter the poison with blood, meaning he could only win through physical attacks, which was annoying and exhausting. Mori wasn't an idiot. He was pretty smart, considering he was a scientist. He figured the boy he had tortured and experimented on for years would hate him but he still wanted him to be obedient. By that he meant, dying.

Kalen had already made it clear that he wasn't going to die unless the other died with him. But fuck did he just want to let himself die like this. Mori was right, he wasn't exactly worth much. And he currently couldn't use his Nen on anyone because he was too focused on trying not to die internally.

Kalen paused for a second to catch his breath and think of a plan, so he backed away and stood near the edge of the arena. The chances of his naive plan working were zero to none but since he was getting increasingly desperate he was going to try it either way.

"Hey examiner guy, is it too late to call it quits?", he yelled shakily towards the speaker on the wall.

"I'm afraid so b-", the response was cut off when the examiners hand jerked towards the button that just happened to open the door that led to the next hall.

Kalen quickly sprinted towards the opening before making the examiner press the button that closed the door. "Fuck you", he managed to say before leaving.
