The four of us kept walking down the staircase for what felt like forever. I begun to feel a fifth person's presence from ahead of us. I stopped walking down the steps, while the others stopped in confusion. I turned off the flashlight from my phone and stood still. I recognized that presence from recently.
"There's someone ahead of us", I whispered.
"Who?", Leorio whispered back.
"Do you think it's..?", Kurapika whispered.
His presence was dissappearing, but I couldn't tell if it was just because he was getting further or if he was using In. He didn't seem like a skilled nen user, but I knew it wasn't the smartest idea to assume things. Especially since we weren't aware that he was a nen user until earlier.
"Let me go ahead", Naomi whispered as she took out her phone.
She turned on the flashlight from it, and proceeded to walk in the front of us.
"I'll go check if it's him. Stay here, I'll text (Y/N) to update you guys. Make sure your ringer is off", Naomi instructed with another whisper.
She walked ahead of us to investigate on her own. I trusted her, but I was also anxious for her too.
~ Naomi's POV ~
"Who's there?", said a stern, yet familiar voice.
It came from behind a metal door, connected to a stone wall.
"It's me..", I replied with.
"Naomi?", he questioned.
"What is this place?", I questioned.
"Stand back, I'm opening the door", he answered.
I did what he said and stood away from the door, and he opened it.
"What are you doing here? And how did you find this place?", he asked.
"What are you hiding?", I ask back.
He never answered my question, but instead gave me a look, as if he was hesitant. Nonetheless, he opened the door even further to show me the room.
The room was like a treasure trove. The walls were covered in tapestries, gold and other jewels. I walked further into the room, and there were shelves containing more items. I scanned the room, and there were two spots empty that happened to be next to each other.
"How did you find this place?", he asked me.
"I found it on accident. Why are you here anyways?", I replied.
"If you aren't aware yet, there are intruders inside the building. I believe that they're after these", he answered as he presented a white box.
"What is that and why do you think that?", I asked.
"Jeez, you're quite the talkative one today", he replied with an annoyed tone.
"Just answer me", I replied with a similar tone.
"Simple. These are the most valuable items I have in my collection. I won them both at an auction house a while back", he replied.
"Where are you taking those then?", I questioned.
"The attic. You're not allowed in here, so leave and go back to the dining room with the guests. You seem to be feeling better anyways", he instructed.
