Greed Island Part II (hxhxmha)

Chapter 12

 "Why?"

"Hmmm?" Nezu said softly to Aizawa's voice.

"Why are you letting them stay here? We should put them on lock down, make sure they don't try anything. Zoldyck said so himself, he's killed people. That isn't the type of person we can let walk around freely. And Ms. Kruger? Are you really going to let her teach here?"

"Of course I am. She will definitely give a unique perspective." Nezu gestured for Aizawa to sit. "These 3 are strong, they could probably beat All Might in his prime. We don't want this type of power to get into the wrong hands."

"I know. But we could put them on lock down, not let them go anywhere."

"I've thought of that as well, but I don't think that would be successful."

"Why not?"

"Tell me, if you've been living a life where you could do whatever you want for a year now, would you really stand to be chained down?" Aizawa shook his head no.

"You have Freecs in your class. There is no way we could quell his boundless energy if we lock the three up. No matter the security measures we place, they would find a way to break out of the secure place. The three haven't tried anything yet, or even done anything suspicious. There have been countless opportunities to try something, but they haven't. There is no reason they would try something bad now. It is best to let them continue as they are, trying to control them from behind the scenes." Aizawa simply nodded, but the tight feeling in his stomach remained. Those boys are not normal. Why is Nezu applying normal logic for them? Nezu took a sip of his tea. "We have an advantage right now. Everything is going according to their plans. We can use that to our advantage."

Aizawa nodded. Thoughts rolled over his head. The three were dangerous, and, as they said, didn't have the morals of this world. Will they really not cause any trouble? Aizawa wasn't sure if he could believe that.

Nezu took another sip of his tea. "Besides, I already know all about their situation, and how to get them back."

"You do?" Aizawa asked, skeptical. Nezu nodded with a smile.

"We have a record similar to this situation." Nezu said, opening a filing cabinet and pulling out a file. "It was put on lock down once they left, the information being too dangerous to release to the public."

Aizawa's eyes widened as he watched Nezu place 5 pieces of paper on his desk. Aizawa's eyes scanned the paper, his eyes falling onto the name on one of the papers, Ging Freecss. Aizawa's hand picks the piece of paper up, scanning over the words. "Is this..."

"Freecss Dad." Nezu smiled as he finished the sentence. "He came here in 1974 along with some friends." Nezu explained with a smile. It was obvious he found this particular case extremely interesting. Nezu was talking like a child does when speaking about their favorite things.

"1974? That's over 100 years ago, how does that work?"

"I'm glad you asked." Nezu sat back in his chair, hands clasped together like an excited child. Maybe more like a mad scientist. Either way, Aizawa regretted his choice of words because now he was going to be stuck here a lot longer. "The time between these two words must not be one to one. It's been 144 years since Ging last came to Earth. Freecss is currently 12."

"So one year here must equal 1 month in their world." Aizawa finished, still processing the information he just received. He continued to stare at the picture of Ging. He could see the similarities between the two.

"Technically, though, their world may not have the same calendar system as us. So it's one of our months, though it could be more for them." Aizawa grimaced as he turned the idea over in his head. It was confusing to think about, even for him. With this information, Gon could be 12 according to their world, but could be older or younger depending on how long their divisions of days, months, and years are.

"This is confusing." Aizawa mumbled. Nezu laughed at his confusion.

"Ging's case is an interesting one. I found the case rummaging through old case files locked in the storage room of the police department. There is no online documentation of this case, just the files I have."

"It must be extraordinarily interesting if it caught your eye."

"Indeed. Reading through they're case is extremely interesting, but I'll summarize it for you." Aizawa grumbled slightly as he got ready for the 'summary,' knowing that it will probably be even longer than just reading the case.

"Let's see now." Nezu placed his paw on his chin, seeming to mull over something. "I guess the best place to start is the beginning." Aizawa nodded, signaling that he was listening.

"Ging came here with four other people: Ete, Elena, Wdwune, and List." Nezu said, gesturing to each of their files as he said their names. "Upon arriving here, the four were taken into police custody for wandering the streets suspiciously. They told authorities they had nowhere to go upon being taken to interrogation rooms." Nezu rocked forward slightly. "This is where the real interesting part lies. Once separated from each other Ging came right out with their business. He said quote," Nezu looked down at one of the papers from the file he'd taken out previously. "'Look, I didn't want to tell you guys this, but those four said I couldn't wrap aliens up in this business. I want this world to act as a part two to the game I'm making, and I'm not gonna take no for an answer. Just take us to your leader and let me talk to em', I'll get a good deal for you guys.'"

Nezu placed the paper back down, looking Aizawa in the eyes. "After that, the four were taken to the Prime Minister. Unfortunately, the exact dialect is locked away even from high officials. The only person with access is the head of the Hero of Public Safety Commission, though a summary is given." Nezu cleared his throat, preparing to talk again. "Once taken to the head political leaders of Japan, Ging stated his case again, and at first everyone refused his conditions. He wanted to create a link between the two worlds so that anyone who completed his game could come here for a part 2 that is generated by a power of some sort."

"Like a quirk?"

"Probably nen." Aizawa nodded, absorbing the information. "Ging then went on to say that he was going to do it regardless, that is create the link, and that he was merely coming here to warn them."

"Wow." Aizawa said after a moment of silence. "But how does this help us know how to get them back?"

"Because Ging told us. He said that a person would probably make their way here sooner or later and that once they do, they will be given a track to choose from. He said that only once all the tasks on track are complete will Eta and Elena teleport the person back home." Nezu said, finishing his explanation.

"So in other words, the three will be here until they finish the track they chose."

"That's exactly right."

"Such a headache." Aizawa mumbled, rubbing his temples.

A/N: Look! If I hadn't adjusted the time conversion, Ging wouldn't have been able to participate in the story, which is clearly crucial. To be honest, I'm not a big planner when it comes to writing. I tend to just go with the flow. I hope you're all enjoying the story! Please feel free to share your thoughts; I adore reading your comments!
