Chapter 3

I'm running in the fog, I lost sight of Kurapika, Leorio, Killua and Gon. I killed a few creatures that tried to eat me, I can see the examiner, and we're about to arrive, but I get distracted by someone's bloodlust, oh, things can get interesting! I head towards it and when I arrive, I see Hisoka surrounded by a group of aspiring Hunters, it's his bloodlust that I felt.

When they attack him he just rotates his arm and the body forming a perfect circle of death with a card and in fact all those who had tried to attack him now lie dead on the ground. He clears the card with a quick flick of the wrist. I continue to observe, this is an interesting sight, but Kurapika and Leorio enter the clearing, the two remain petrified. I blink, they are, really, very unlucky, at the moment Hisoka won't have any qualms about killing them. I also know that Gon would be sad if things get tragic, so if it's necessary I will intervene.

As Hisoka advances towards them, I hear them talking, since I am far away from them I can't understand what they are saying, but when they are about to be attacked they turn around and run in two different directions. "Wise decision∼" says the magician before heading back, but just as he was about to leave, Leorio reappears in the middle of the fog, what an idiot, "... I can't run away from an opponent" I hear him say, before he attacks Hisoka.

The clown, however, moves to the side and is about to attack him, but is interrupted by Gon who hits him in the face with a fishing rod, "oh... a fishing rod, what an interesting weapon∼" I don't like where this is going, Gon is not ready to face Hisoka, also I don't like the way the clown looks at him at all.

As he approaches Gon, however, Leorio attacks him, ending up knocked out with a single punch, at this point it is Gon who attacks Hisoka, however he is unable to land even a single blow, the short fight ends with Gon being grabbed by the neck by Hisoka.

At that point I've had enough, I get up and clear my throat to signal my presence, the two turn towards me, who now advances into the clearing, step over a body and step on another as I walk, "do you mind putting down my friend clown?"

I cross my arms over my chest and stare straight into his eyes, he releases him with a smile, "oh don't worry, he passed my exam∼" Gon falls to the ground coughing, while Hisoka approaches me, he stops a meter away, "I'm curious though, how long have you been there, my little ace?∼"

I shift my weight on my heels, "practically since they were still alive", he makes a strange expression and licks his lips, I'm starting to realise that this guy has strange tastes... "so you could have intervened earlier, why didn't you?∼", I smirk, "watching you fight was too interesting, I didn't even want to intrude, but since they decided to do it, I had to make sure they didn't die immediately".

I don't know why, but I feel like being honest, his smile widens, "my name is Hisoka Morrow, and yours darling?∼",

"Kumiko Matsushime",

"Well see you at the second phase then, my little ace∼" with this last statement he puts Leorio on his shoulder and leaves, I grab Gon and together we head through the swamp to the second test. 

When we get there we find Hisoka who shows us where Leorio is, we reach him and also reunite with the others. The examiner announces that the second test will take place here, then he leaves us alone, we enter through the large gate behind him and once inside we can see a series of cooking stations and beyond those, a sort of podium. On the podium, a huge guy, and a girl with a strange hairstyle.

I have the feeling that we will have to cook, and that means they are Gourmet Hunters. I have always liked Gourmet Hunters, they are usually the craziest ones and also the most interesting ones. I had to kill a couple of them on commission and, boy, they were a tough game.

We distribute ourselves in the various stations, I am next to Killua and Kurapika, in front of me there is a strange guy with pins in his face, and in the station behind me there is Hisoka.

A guttural rumble is heard and everyone turns towards the two examiners, "The second test will be about cooking, we are both Gourmet Hunters, your objective will be to satisfy both of our palates", says the woman, the guy behind her leans forward a little while the group of candidates murmurs in annoyance.

"Pork, this is the main ingredient for your dishes, you can use any pig present in the forest behind you, let the second phase begin!"Everyone rushed out, instead I walked calmly. I don't understand why running, is not a time trial. I walk in the woods and collect some herbs, berries and mushrooms that I know are not poisonous, when I reach the others I see a huge herd of pigs with a huge nose.

I wait and watch while the others hit their foreheads and manage to kill them, I go to get mine when the guy from before, with the pins, approaches me, he has 2 big pigs on his shoulders and drops one in front of me , "take it, I killed one more by mistake", he says. I grab the pig, by the smell and the texture I can tell it's not poisoned, "thanks, what's your name?", "Ghitararkur", he says tilting his head to the side, there's something that doesn't add up to me about this guy, he seems familiar to me.

"I'm Kumiko, have we met before by any chance?", I ask with a sly smile, he shakes his head producing a strange creek, then he starts to walk away, I shrug my shoulders, never mind if he doesn't want to tell me straight away, I'll have more fun finding out later. I go back to my station, and I see that everyone is cooking the whole pigs, I snort, they don't know how to do anything other than fight?
