Several minutes had gone by as Gon sat in the bush using Zetsu, (which he had somehow learned), as Kalen sat in a tree, also using Zetsu. Kalen was getting bored quite quickly, and he still wanted to try and maybe look for his actual target, despite already having enough points to pass. His target... Number 301? Was that it? Yeah he thought so. That would be easy since he already knew who it was, the guy with several pins protruding from his face, a pretty unique look that had stuck in his mind.
Finally, after what seemed like hours, Hisoka finally said something.
"Well come on out, I know you're there. If you chose not to, it would be my pleasure to come over to you", Hisoka said as he walked towards where Gon was hiding. Hm, maybe he'd actually be able to see something now.
Kalen waited for a few moments, the suspense eating away at his patience, until finally someone stood up. It wasn't Gon, but another examinee. Strange. Kalen hadn't noticed him before. Maybe his little habit was finally affecting his performance.
~•~
"I challenge you to a duel", the person said as he pulled at a spear and prepared a fighting stance. Kalen almost laughed. What was this Nen-less fool going to do against Hisoka? Look he was no fan of the magician but he had to admit that the magician seemed pretty powerful.
"You'll die", Hisoka said grinning.
The guy stood there for a few moments before deciding to make his move. He rushed towards Hisoka, swinging and stabbing at the magician with his spear as Hisoka dodged each and every one of his attacks. The guy tried over and over but failed with every attempt. That was when Kalen noticed that the man was already injured. Blood was staining the back of his shirt, so it seemed like a lethal blow had already been dealt. Kalen guessed the man wanted to die in a "courageous fight" or whatever which was why he had come looking for Hisoka.
"Hisoka, explain yourself! Why won't... why won't you attack me?!", the man said, panting and gasping for air.
"If I continue to avoid your attacks, you'll die eventually. Hm~?", Hisoka stated with a smirk, " I can tell from the swarm of Hemotropic Butterflies that you've already been dealt a lethal blow by someone else, yes? Though I do understand your desire to die in battle..."
"If you understand so well... why do you still refuse to fight back!", the man said with the remainder of his little strength.
"I have no interest in the dead. Bye bye~", Hisoka said as he sat on a tree that had fallen over during their interaction.
Despite all this, the latter refused to give up. His stood up with tears in his eyes as he ran towards Hisoka with all his might, before getting his by a pin directly in his neck. Several pins proceeded to puncture the mans face before another person revealed himself.
"Ah, sorry about that, I carelessly allowed him to escape", the pin-faced guy said. It took Kalen a few moments since he felt so lightheaded but he finally processed that this was his opponent. Gitturakur or something. He felt more excited than he had in a while, he'd finally get to fight someone interesting! Kalen smiled a bit before preparing to jump down for his tree.
"Liar. He probably begged you for one final wish, didn't he Illu~?", Hisoka said teasingly. Hm? The two of them were apparently acquainted.
"Well, I pitied the man. Since he was dead either way..", the pin-face, or Illu said emotionlessly, " besides you've done it before yourself, haven't you?".
"I have standards. I only spare people's who's deaths would go to waste. Not potential-less losers. Do you have his tag?", Hisoka responded.
"I already took it. Here you can have it, I already have six points", pin-face said, tossing Hisoka the tag.
Then the pin-face began pulling the pins out of his face as his face morphed several times until it stopped. Getting a clearer look at the mans face, Kalen could see that he was actually quite good looking, maybe even a bit feminine. Quite pretty actually.
"That's always so fascinating to watch~", Hisoka grinned.
"It's pretty hard on me, I feel so much better", the man responded. He was about to crouch down but then Kalen decided to make his move. He jumped down from the tree and landed a few meters away from the two men.
"Hmm, I didn't expect you to be here Dolly~. Is Illu your target?", the magician asked.

Uhh so this chapter was supposed to be a lot longer but I kinda got lazy. Like, I just had this random motivation to write and it just died as a continued lmao 😭.
But i might update again this week since I just found out that I made my schools Science Olympiad team and that will keep me motivated for about three weeks. Yay.
Either way, stay tuned!
