-Third Person-

Droplets of cold rain fell heavily from the dark clouds, down to the poor girl sitting on the damp grass with her eyes void of life.

She's been like that for hours ever since Hisoka left her with the truth that she hadn't known till said. Her lost pieces hidden in the dark.

She have slapped herself countless times, trying to bring back her missing memories of terror. Her trembling self clearly shows her fear of knowing about what she really did, but she has to.

If she had a goal for the moment, it is to break free.

She have to break free from Chrollo's tight grip.

She never knew how disastrous it will come if she hadn't. She's thinking over and over again about how Chrollo is capable of laying a hand to his friends using her.

It's awful that she can't even control her own body. Her trust is fading, her doubts are growing.

She can't let that happen.

Especially, Kurapika.

The thought of him getting killed by her own hands while being brainwashed. And then his blood everywhere. Just thinking of it makes her weak.

She never knew that this can get more horrible than a nightmare.

She know she will die if that ever happen.

She banged her head to the cold ground until she bleeds, whimpering as her tears fall. It's as if she keeps on chasing something she can't reach.

It's too odd. That part of her memory seems to be locked carefully.

"Damn it! Remember what you did!" She gripped unto the grass tightly as if ripping it into pieces.

"B-back on the trick tower... did I just really faint?" She huffed with a shivering lips. "How... how did I won?"

This is the island where she has survived the fourth phase. But how long can she survive more?

-Chizumi-

My eyes darken upon seeing blood on the grass exactly from where I banged my head hard. I was too carried away, but the cold rain washed the wringing pain already.

I can't feel anything other than fear.

I can even picture my hands soiled with blood. It makes me sick.

My blood. Why does it seems so familiar?

Blood scattered everywhere. Its metallic scent on my nostrils. The taste on my lips. My body drenched in red liquid.

Like a films in disarray, quick rolls of horrid scenario suddenly plays in my head as I screamed in excruciating pain.

It's like I've been suffering an amnesia. I didn't know forcing to remember feels so painful.

But I need to. If this is the only way to get a hold of myself more than Chrollo had.

"Tch. That was quite close though..." I mumbled under a deep breath after my head stopped wrecking. And the pictures are also gone.

I leaned my head on the tree trunk as my hand balled into fist.

"This is not enough. I have to--"

"Last call for your attention. Applicants who will not be able to get back to the ship, even has complete points will be disqualified. Please come back right away."
