I block the sudden punch of death, but I'm grabbed by my hair and pulled in with a growl.

"Such smooth skin and silky hair." Its touching me. All of me. My face, my neck, running down near my skirt-

I throw a fist behind me, but something catches my hand, I scratch at the hand in my hair, and I'm restrained again. I kick back, and two more hands with deadly grip holds me in place. I feel small pointy things like needles stick in and out of my skin as if sowing something into my bones, and I gag. I feel sick.

Lights snap on as Killua and Gon call my name but all I can see is red.

Defiled. I'm practically being molested, and its setting me off worse then before. I growl, finally biting down hard enough to break....metal?

Whoever it was, whatever it was, let's me go. I run forward, landing on my knees. It hurts.

"Sienna! Sienna? Are you okay? What happened?" Gon and Killua are there in an instant, Gon in front of me and Killua shielding me away from...

I slap Gon's hand away as he tries to grab my shoulder. "W-wait. Don't. I can't- what the fuck, I feel gross...just a second." I'm rambling. It feels like something is cutting into my lungs, restricting me. I stay crouched that way, just for a moment.

"Okay...okay I'm good." I sigh, sitting up and rolling my shoulders, cracking my spine and knuckles.

Gon nor Killua say anything, turning to face me once again with concern etched into their faces.

".....What happened? Nothings here." Killua whispered, and I shook my head.

"Don't... Don't ask, but I think I was just...violated?" I whisper back, zipping up my coat with a tight smile.

"Ehhhh!? What a dirty word to use."

A voice sounds through the large room. I take a good look at the place, seeing glass windows line the walls near the ceiling, and see a few of the exam takers that are watching us. They're probably done with this phase, and I can see Hisoka not looking happy at all.

Some of the examinees are staring directly at me, and I feel like hiding. They saw. They look shocked, appalled, and sorry for me. I look away, hating how things suddenly got so bad for me.

I look forward, staring at whatever touched me.

He had short, golden whispy hair. He wore a simple T-shirt, bright orange,and a triple set of cuffs on his wrists. Human wrist, that is. The lower half of his body branched out into a spider, metal and cogs cranking as he moved the four free metal arms with grace, steel shining in the light. He smiled, his yellow eyes looking evil with his sharp teeth.

"Dirty word? You violated her! This goes against the hunter exam in every possible way!" Gon roared, anger flickering off of him in waves.

The thing frowns. Then looks away, a metal hand covering his mouth as he snorts, and a sharp thumb holds his chin as he full on laughs.

"Hunter exam? Who cares? You do know what phase this is, correct? What I'm here to do is to beat you in any way I see fit. She was just unlucky." He smirks, and I hear Killua 'tisk' and his knuckles crack with how hard he's fisting up his hands.

"Web, that's enough!" A voice calls, its female, and two humanoid forms jump down from a glassless opening in the chain of windows near the ceiling.

We tense, web, frowning and turning around to face the orange blobs.

"Not another word from you. One more mishap and you're not fighting. Now, allow me to introduce this phase." A woman with straight, brown and purple eyes said in a monotone, serious voice.

She had gills on her neck, her skin a light blue and webbed feet. Scales lined her arms and odd claw-like fingers. She wore an orange shirt as well, only it was long enough to cover her knees. She only had two cuffs.

A man, with white, long hair braided into a thin whip like pattern stood silent, a grimance placed on his lips as he stared at Web. His red eyes had specks of orange, giving off the look of fire. He wore orange pants and a T-shirt. White fur ran along his forearms, and a cat tail whisked out of view here and there. He seemed to have a tattoo on his neck, but I couldn't really see it. Only one set of cuffs for him.

None of them had shoes.

"This mountain is home to exactly four hundred ant hybrid criminals. A new set for each examinee group is sent up matching them in strength based on their performance so far. For every hour we force you to stay here is a year off our sentence. We pick the challenge you will face, but only one at a time may step up. If you win, you are free to stay up there where the rest of the finished exam takers are, or walk outside immediately. Nether matter, for your time will stop and you would have officially finished the third phase of the exam. You three have thirty eight hours left, please pick who will go first as soon as you're ready." She finishes, turning on her heel and giving us a final glance along with everyone else.

I count the examinees as Gon and Killua discuss who should go first, and I count only eighteen.

"Well, I'll go then." Killua sighs, Gon looking like he wants to protest. He looks like he wants to smash all three of them into the glass windows, but he nods.

"Y-yeah. Okay. Be careful."

"Killua." I call, turning their attention over to me.

I grab him and Gon, hugging them tightly, then shove them away and turn to the three monsters leaning against the wall.

"Thank you guys, for worrying about me, but I'll go first." I smile, removing my coat and setting down my katanas.

Seven sins: Wrath.

"Are you sure?" They both ask, at the exact same time, and I feel my blood start to boil as I release Ren and remove my gloves, unwrapping the bandages and scratching at the scabs on my finger tips.

I nearly grunt as a reply, red lining my vision as I start to let my rage consume me ever so slightly.

The monsters turn to me, shock filling their eyes and small gasps wafting in the air from the examinees that are suddenly veeeery interested in this fight. I stare down the freak spider with a grin.

"You. Step up." I growl, snarling as I point a bloody finger at him.
