The speaker cracked as the sound kicked in. "Choose who goes first."

No one questioned the voice of God that was making them fight for their pleasure—okay no. It wasn't God. But Kagero liked being creative and dramatic with theatrics. Though it would be hard to show it without getting even more unwanted attention since she didn't want unwanted attention because she didn't want people to know her gender because it was UNWANTED. If that was actually said a gasp of air would have been needed.

"Hisoka, you can go." Kagero leaned against the wall of the room and sat down.

"I've been waiting...Hisoka." The guy with daggers stood up. The darkened room brightened up as green torches were lit up in an orderly fashion. You could finally see the opponent's faces. The man with the daggers had scars, running up his face from his cheeks and passed the brow. He had a savage smile. You could easily tell he wanted to kill.

"Well that's fancy." Kagero referred to the green flames that were flickering about hauntingly. And despite the three buff men in front of her who looked like they were all about making people scream bloody murder—it was actually quite pretty.

"I'm not here as an examiner this year Hisoka. I'm here for revenge." He said maliciously, "Today, I'll get payback for my scars!" He drew his blade, spun it in the air and caught it effortlessly.

"Heh, those scars merely show that you were an incompetent examiner." He smirked. "You're blaming me for your own inadequacies." The brute took out another dagger.

"Quit yapping!" He began to spin those daggers incredibly fast and started laughing. "Prepare to die!"

"Dual wielding?" Hisoka's smirk disappeared when he threw the two daggers in the air.

He took out two more daggers and yelled, "Infinite quad wielding!" and threw the two blades, one down and one just above the first, leaving a space in between them. Hisoka dodged by side jumping in between the space. He rushed to Hisoka and cross slashed. Though, he dodged. The two daggers came back spinning wildly and one of them slashed Hisoka's side.

While Kagero was watching intently she couldn't help but think that if the cycle of daggers was interrupted there would be a hole in the offence, and thus make an opening to attack. With a sword or other weapon you could deflect the blade and alter its course and it wouldn't make it back to the thrower. The rhythmic catching and throwing of the blades was hypnotic. Along with the green flames shining onto the reflecting metal it came to look very interesting.

"It's not over yet!" The brute threw his others blades in the air and caught the other ones for another attack. He continuously threw them and Hisoka was forced to keep dodging.

Kagero started to nod off, the repetitiveness making her sleepy. The dodging continued. Her eyes closed fully and her head rested onto her shoulder. The brute was yelling about how dodging is futile and he would get shredded. Kagero missed something after she fell asleep. Hisoka caught the blades. He let out an aura to scare the man and succeeded, though Kagero slept right through it. The man's yell was cut off—literally—as he was beheaded.

Half of the green torches went out and the room darkened. Hisoka walked off and saw that Kagero was slumped against the wall. He walked up to her and knelt down seeing her sleeping face.

"Hmm, so you're a girl, interesting..." Hisoka has seen her face before with all the fuss from her friends, but only deducted her gender when he saw her relaxed sleeping face. He shook her shoulder, "Dearie, while it's such a shame to wake you from your little cat nap, it's now your turn."

"Hnnmm?" She got up groggily, stretching with a yawn, and looked to Hisoka. Her keen eyes did not miss the injury on his side and shoulder—well it was quite obvious with the torn fabric and blood. "You're injured... Let me help..." She yawned again, reaching into her bag for medical stuff.
