49-The 200s are the best

I turned around, looking at three weird people. Killua asked: "You want something?" The one sitting in the modified wheelchair answered: "No, not really." The one with the creepy face said: "We're simply in line to register for a fight."

The three of them then laughed in an unusual way, causing me to tilt my head. "Oh, I get it. (Y/N), Gon, these guys want to fight on the day you do." said Killua, to which I said: "For real?"

I handed the lady behind the counter my forms, saying: "Makes it easier. I can fight whoever, whenever." "Me, too." said Gon, putting his forms next to mine. Killua said: "There you go." to the three weirdos.

I took a step closer towards them, asking: "What? You wanna fight right now?" Before they could answer, the receptionist handed us our keys, saying: "Then Gon will be in room 2207. Killua will be in room 2223. And (Y/N) will be in-"

"Oh, I don't need a room of my own. I'll just stay with Killua." I said, smiling at the lady. Killua's cheeks flushed red as he asked: "What are you saying?" Grinning, I replied: "It's been like this since we got here, silly. They can just use that room for someone else. I'm not gonna be in it anyway."

He looked away from me, and the receptionist said: "Alright. We will let you know which day your match is." "Thanks!" said Gon and me at the same time, and the three of us began walking. I glanced back once, noticing that the three weirdos were looking after us, as if we were their prey.

"They must have gone through that greeting Four-Eyes mentioned. If we'd gone in blind, we could've ended up like them." noted Killua, the trio entering the room with the number 2207 on top- Gon's room.

While (Y/N) simply shrugged, Gon looked around his room, saying: "Wow! This room is huge!" Killua called: "Hey, are you listening to me?" "The bath is squeaky clean. I've never seen such a big bed!"

"Neither of us has to sleep on the couch, then, Killua! The bed is big enough for us both!" announced (Y/N), a big, sincere smile resting on her lips. Killua's eyes widened as he realized that he could actually be sharing a bed with her.

His face flushed red as he stepped back, saying: "B-But I'll-" "Oh, come on! It's not like we haven't slept next to each other before." she said, her (e/c) eyes practically shining in joy. She was happy to spend as much time with him as she possibly could.

"Woah! Look at this view!" said Gon, gaining their attention. The three of them looked out of the big window, all smiling at the amazing view they had over the city. "Wow... So many buildings. Look how tiny the people are from here!" noted (Y/N), chuckling.

The boys smiled at her, as a sudden noise caught their attention. The TV had turned on, showing a message for Gon. "Oh, let me read! Let me read!" called (Y/N) out, rushing in front of the others.

She stared at the screen, then began to read it out loud. "Your dinner has been set for 3 pm, March 11th." Gon had to chuckle as Killua just smiled, saying: "Close. It's not dinner, it's-" "You're right, it's fight! I read it wrong, huh?" she said, cutting him off.

Then, the information sunk in. "Wait, what? Tomorrow?! That's fast." said Killua, the two of them looking over at their friend. Gon focused his Nen, saying: "I probably won't be able to win tomorrow. But that's okay. I need the experience. I need to discover what I can do with this power."

"Well said, Gon." noted (Y/N), patting his shoulder, accidentally pushing Gon a bit due to her strength. He tripped and fell over, causing (Y/N) to start apologizing immediately, which only made the boys laugh.

"Okay, we have a thrilling match for you today. First, we have Gon, who managed to zip straight to this class! His opponent will be Gido, who currently holds a respectable 4-1 record." announced a lady over the speakers.

"It's the guy that looks like a deformed bird." I said, pointing at Gon's opponent. Killua, who sat next to me in the audience, burst out laughing, immediately trying to calm down again. I smiled, proud that I made him laugh.

He said: "You're not wrong. But I'm really interested to see what the people on this floor are capable of." "Me, too!" I agreed, starting to cheer for Gon. His bird-opponent balanced a few spinning tops on his walking cane.

"Gido uses numerous tops to attack his opponent!" called the announcer out, and it was then that the bird-looking man started his attack. The spinning tops began moving around Gon, one hitting him in his back, causing him to lose his balance.

I watched closely, being able to see the Nen around the tops. This is... amazing! So that's something you can do with Nen? Manipulate objects like that... I wonder if I can do that. But not with boring spinning tops. Maybe with weapons? Spinning weapons? Sounds... kinda boring.

"Hey, Killua?" I asked, not daring to look away from the fight. "Hm?" "What would you do if you were fighting right now?" Killua thought for a moment, then said: "I'd just attack the one controlling the tops. He may have something up his sleeve, though. He hasn't even moved yet."

Grinning, I said: "I would do the same. And knowing Gon, he'll do that in a second, too!" He returned my smile, saying: "Yeah." We continued to watch as Gon was being hit by the tops. Until he was eventually thrown out of the ring.

Once he got back in, though, he began attacking the dude. Only to have the guy start spinning like a top himself, knocking Gon out once more. I've never fought anyone like this before.

My smile widened as I felt the adrenaline rushing through my veins. This is it. This is the feeling I've been craving. Finally, a new challenge! I'm sure that I can experience so many new fighting styles and techniques here! "The 200s are the best!" I said out loud, continuing to cheer for Gon.
