Five years later...
Kiwi is fourteen










     Another five years of my life passed within a blink of an eye; though.... The time came around where I had to make my way up the mountain and sit with my dead mother. Before I used to come up the high rise mountain and the closed door cave to sit with her, but then it turned into a yearly thing instead. I felt emptier than normal because a specific person was no longer around. Hisoka, after our last encounter, disappeared from Glam Gas with no word of him sense then. He never showed himself to me after outright admitting that he fell in love with me and I wonder if it was because he feared rejection.



     I also thought maybe he feared being weak for having feelings for me at all, but then I also had to think that maybe his attachment to me was gone ... Elastic much like his transmuter ability... Bungee gum.




     Today was the day I was meeting the chairman of the the Hunter Exam, I set out to take it on my eighteenth birthday.
The last couple of years were eventful, I happened to stumble across Hisoka again, or rather he found me sitting along on one of the many jagged highrise mountains I constantly found myself going to to train but also to be alone with my thoughts.






     The density of intense aura snapped me out of my head and I sighed rolling my eyes as I stared up at the sky. "Hello to you Netero." I didn't even turn around to acknowledge him, he chuckled as I sat facing forward and watching the sun set like I usually did. " Is she always like this, Kapri?" I heard him ask my father, his answer in return was an amused chuckle. "Just because I took a trip and got lost in my thoughs doesn't mean I didn't notice you. I'm well aware that you're around." I turned my head and glanced back at them, seeing them standing there, Dad watching the sun with a nostalgic look on his face, Netero his eyes on me with a peculiar expression.




     "Speak old man, you have that look on your face." I fully turned around to face him as he subconsciously stroked his beard. He chuckled as he placed his arms behind his back, leaning forward with a serious expression shifting his features. "You're taking the Hunter Exam when you're Eighteen correct?" I nodded in response which caused him to stroke his beard again. "How do you feel about being the next Chairman?" My lips parted at the question and I tilted my head slightly before my brows furrowed over myself.




     "I don't know, I will only take that position if something befalls you. So when you die, I'll take you up on that offer. Not before." He seemed stunned at my answer his lips pulling down into a frown as he watched me. "So, then what your father said is true, you were infact reincarnated from another world where 'we' existed as characters from a story? That's rather interesting." He gave a hearty chuckle, not bothering to ask what would cause him to perish. He agreed to my request without a second thought, both of us striking a deal.


"I can't wait to see you at the Hunter Exam Kiwi, train hard. The gains come with pain, so expect much of it." With that Netero disappeared and went about his way, both me and my father glancing at each other at the same time before bursting into laughter.


"Like I said, who doesn't know of Chairman Netero."



He rolled his eyes at me and turned back to look at the now darken sky. "Your mother is proud of you. I know you have difficulty expression your emotions sometimes, and maybe it's because of your truama, but know that we love and support you. Whatever decision you make, the entire clan will support." He placed his hand on my head and ruffled my white mane, chuckling once again.




At this point now, it was crunch time. By my eighteenth birthday I planned to be the strongest known in the Hunter x Hunter world.

    I couldn't sleep at all, I was restless and did nothing but toss and turning the room of my own home. Yes... Over the years I worked on building my own place with the help of my father and at the age of twelve I moved out across the camp to my freshly built cozy home to officially fend for myself. I, in my own way, have beenaing care of myself since the moment I could walk. If I wasnt hunting, I was training, if I was t raining I was soaring with my father and if I wasnt doing that I was hunting. Or making weapons out o the bone of my kill.


    But as I right now I was doing none of those things, if anything... I was on alert because it felt like someone was in my home uninvited. I pushed that feeling aside and tried my best to fall asleep... And what seemed like ages... I finally fell asleep, but I enteremt a place I haven't been since I died ... The darkest part of my mind

    The place was dark and certain colors peaked through at me, illuminated by something that sat in the middle of it all. There sat Hisoka, no shirt no pants, his hair down, rubbing his toes against he floor with a deep humming in his throat. When I squeezed closely, I realized he was t on the floor, button a bed that was showered by darkess in most spots and illuminated, almost glowing in others... The sheets beneath him were red and silky, messy and tangled asbhe continued to rub his toes against the fabric.


     "Of all people to see.... It had to be you..." My voice filled the darkness and seemed to completely shock him, his entire body stiff as a board.  Every muscle visible to my heightened eyesight seemed to coil up as if he was ready to spring at me, his head turning until his cat like golden orbs met mine.

     "Kitten ..? How did you get here?" He looked genuinely surprised which he dearly ever is, his mouth slightly agape  as he took in my standing form. "What do you mean how did I get here, this is my dream, you're in my head.... Stop talking as if you're actually here." I grumbled and sat on the floor at he foot of the bed. He chuckled his alluring chuckle and sighed."you have it backwards, kitten... Rather were not in each other's head, more so were connected." He laid out along the sheet until he rested his head on his folded arms, which was directly next to my head.


    "...Suuure... Sure we are." My sarcasm came out heavy only because I didn't want to tell him that he was right. Whatever connected us before in my previous life never went away, if anything it was getting stroner and I knew there would be a point in this life where I coul no longer distance myself from him or the other. Speaking of the other....

     "Another strange dream, I've been getting a flood of them lately... How tiresome." It was Illumi's voice that reached us along with his echoing foot falls. "To think I'd see you here again .." his dark eyes found me as he rood on the other side of the dome and dark room we were in. He brought with him his own dark light that seems to illuminate where he stood, dark colors of purple and blue seem to radiate from him, but he made no move to approach either of us. "Fucking fish face is here now?!" I grumbled. "I swear I ate something bad before going to bed." I hissed in irritatiin and quickly ran my fingers through my wild white mane.



     "I do have one question..... Where is my needle, woman?" Illumi's voice filled Hisoka's dreamscapes room and my entire body locked up, staring at him. "....why did you just ask me?" I stood up with a torn expression, hoping... Wishing that maybe he remembered me. "My needle,.I had a dream where you held an ace of spades and my needle..."

     "How amusing... My Ace o spades is actually missing... It's been missing since I've had the cards." Hisoka's eyes ran up and down my standing form as a wolfish grin took his lips. "I did ask you before if you some how took my card...didn't I Kitten?" He rose from the messy silk sheets standing bare and naked which causedm to squeak. "Why are you naked, and what in your name?" Illumi's eyes drifted to his bare flaccid member, a hint of a blush on his cheeks before it quickly disappeared, looking back up to the red heads grinnim face. "Hisoka Morow... Better known as The grim reaper or, Hisoka the magician.... But... For you... Call me daddy~"


    "oh please fuckin stop it!!!"

     "Interesting.." Illumi looked back to me unbothered by what the eccentric red head had just said, but me... I had already turned my back and walked away. " I'm leaving, this dream is fuckin weird.."





    With that, my eyes snapped open and the morning light filled my eye and the bird song my ears, a sigh of relief leaving my lips. "Sheesh, of all people why do I even like them?!"
