"Okay! We have a thrilling match for you today. First we have Gon, who was able to make it to the 200th floor without even a scratch to show for it. His opponent will be Gido, who holds a respectable recond of 4 wins and 1 loss on this floor." the announcer coco said.

Gon and Gido both walked on the stage. Gon started stretching, and Gido started laughing. What's his deal? Why is he ALWAYS laughing? Nothing is even funny right now!

"Go Gon! You can do it!" I cheered, still sitting on Kil lap. "And Begin!" The ref yelled. Gon activated his Ten and got into a fighting position. Gido put a spinning top on his cane, then multiplied it!

He threw them into the arena, and they attacked Gon. "Spinning tops?" I said. "There they are! Gido's dancing tops! He uses multiple tops to attack his opponent!" Coco said.

One of the tops bounced off of another one, then hit Gon in the back. "Clean hit!" The ref announced. "Gon's given up a clean hit! One point right off the bat Gon's off to a rough start." Coco said. Gon got back up, still ready to fight.

" I use my nen to make tops keep spinning for hours as an attack." Gido said. "I can't figure out the pattern of the tops. It's too complex." I said. "Yeah, the tops keep bouncing off of each other and attacking him. Most of all, he's caught off guard." Kil said.

"Your saying, he didn't think his opponents, who can use nen way better than us, was gonna be this strong!? Is he stupid?" I said. "He's Gon." Kil said with a sigh.

I noticed the ref get out the ring. Gon stepped back and all the tops came rushing at him, bouncing off of each other, then Gon got hit in the back again. "Gon's been hit from behind by another top!

Gon's in big trouble, after being surrounded by Gido's dancing tops!" Coco said. The tops started bouncing off of each other faster. Gon couldn't keep up with them and got hit in the cheek.

"Clean hit and knockdown! Two points." The ref said holding up two fingers. Gon got back up quickly. "Hm...Come on Gon! Get it together!!!" Yelled from the stance. Gon looked up at me and I gave him a serious look.

Gon gasped, then smirked. I think he noticed me and Kil's position. "GOOOO" I screamed. Gon refocused. "Gon's already given up a total of 4 points." Coco said. "Can you continue?" The ref asked Gon. "You bet!" Gon said.

Gon continued to sit there. If I had to guess, I say he was thinking. His thinking was cut off by the tops coming at him again. Gon swiftly dodged the tops. Then suddenly, Gon stopped. He closed his eyes, while all of the tops were coming at him still, then I sensed his Ten fade.

Gon noticed, and stopped, then he got hit with a top, and got knocked out of the ring. I'd expect it hurt a lot worse since his Ten had just faded slightly.

Gon got back up but sat there again. "The score is now 6-0! Gon's dug himself a deep hole!" Coco said.

The ref ran over to Gon. "What's wrong? Can you continue the fight?" the ref asked. "Be quiet! I'm trying to think." Gon said. The ref got pretty offended by that comment. "If you're not back in the ring in ten seconds, you lose! 1." The ref started counting down.

Then I realized there was a top outside of the ring, but it wasn't attacking Gon. "Kil. Do you see that?" I asked. "See what?" Kil asked. Then Kil gasped. "There's a top outside of the ring, but it's not attacking Gon." I said.

"Yeah, you're right." Kil said, going into thinking mode. "All of the other tops are doing the same thing." Kil said. "If they were actually going after Gon, they would come out the ring to attack him right." I said.

"I don't think they're coming after Gon at all. Maybe Gido just told the tops to attack anything in their way!" I said, coming to a conclusion. "Yeah, that makes sense. Controlling all those tops at once would be a lot tougher than letting them have free reign." Kil said.

In that case, Gon doesn't have to avoid all the tops. He can just go after Gido. Gon definitely figured this out because that's exactly what he did. He went straight after Gido, but that plan backfired.

Gido started spinning around like a top himself. Gon got blasted back out of the ring from the impact. The score was now 9-0. If Gon get's hit again, it's over. Gon got back into the ring, and stood there.

Then the most unexpected thing happened. Gon turned off his Ten! "Gon!" Kil said. I gasped. "Is he crazy!? He has no defense anymore. If he gets hit again, he could seriously get hurt." I shouted.

But Gon's defenses actually got stronger! He was dodging all of the tops no problem. With his eyes closed too! All he was doing was sensing the tops, and it was working! Everyone in the stance was surprised.

Gido was losing it. He didn't know how Gon was evading all of his tops. Gon was doing an amazing job, until he went a way where he was trapped. He had to get hit by a top, but with no defense, he got messed up, and the match was over.

—----

"Your right radius and ulna are both broken. Fractured humerus. Three broken ribs. And twelve other minor fractures. It'll take you four months to recover." Kil said. Gon was sitting in his bed with a broken arm and had a dumb look on his face.

Kil was pissed. "You moron." Kil said. "Sorry." Gon said. "An apology won't work! Do you have any brains in there!? Didn't you see the others who went through the nen initiation? You could have easily ended up just like them!" Kil said, poking Gon in the forehead.

"Kil's right Gon. Sorry doesn't cut it this time." I said, pulling Killua away from Gon by his collar. "You were seriously hurt. Don't you know what Wing is training us for?" I said with a worried tone and my arms crossed. "Still. I had a feeling I'd be okay. He didn't hit any vital spots, so I wasn't in mortal danger." Gon said.

Kil put his foot on Gon's broken arm, and started pushing on it, making it hurt. Then there was a knock at the door. "Come in!" Kil said. I walked over to open the door. As I was walking by, I pulled Killua by his collar and pulled him back from Gon again.

"Mr. Wing." I said. "Four eyes!" Kil said. Wing walked straight over to Gon. "Mr. Wing? I'm-" Gon was cut off by Wing slapping him across the face. I gasped. "An apology won't help! What were you thinking!? Didn't you see the other people who went through the nen initiation? You could have easily ended up just like them!" Wing scolded.

"Yeah. We were just telling him that." Kil said, walking over to Wing with his hands behind his head. Wing stopped, and put his hand on Gon's shoulder. "Honestly. I'm just glad you weren't hurt any more than you were." Wing said.

"Wing. I really am sorry." Gon said. Wing smiled, then got serious. "I won't let this slide. Killua. Do you know when Gon will fully recover?" Wing asked. "The doctor said it'll take around two months." Killua said.

"I understand. Very well. Gon. I will not allow you to use or study nen for two months. Nor will I allow you to take part in any matches for two months. If you don't abide by these rules, I will never teach you again." Wing said.

"I understand. I'll follow your instructions." Gon said. "Give me your left hand." Wing said. He tied a thread around Gon's pinky finger. "This is a promise thread. It will remind you of the promise you made." Wing explained.

"Killua. A moment please." Wing asked. Then they left the room. I sat on Gon's bed. "So, I saw you and Killua in the stands today. Was it just me, or were you sitting in Killua's lap?" Gon said with a smirk.

"U-Uh, well..." "You guys were looking so cute together. All snuggled up." Gon said gushing. "It wasn't what you think. Kil just let me sit on his lap because I couldn't see." I said shyly. "So he helped you out?! How cute of him." Gon said.

"Well there was this one thing that happened though. He had mumbled something, then when I confronted him, he called me an idiot and turned his head from me." I said. "Hm..Sounds like he was blushing." Gon said.

"For real!!! Oh, I mean for real?" Gon laughed. "Sorry. I'm just really clueless about these things." I said. "Well. I can help! I can get you two some alone time. Or even talk to Killua if you want." Gon said.

"Wait. Really! You'd do that for me!" I said. "Yeah! I love seeing yall together. I'd love to help make it happen." Gon said. "Ah, thanks Gon. You're the best." I said hugging him. "Ow, Hana. My arm." Gon said.

"Oh! Sorry." We both laughed and decided to train together.
