She knew this would happen sooner or later.

Her euphoria would always be short lived.

Gloves was back, stronger than ever.

It took every ounce of Yumi's self control to control Gloves.

But she lost control of her power.

Her curse.

Her eternal burden.

Then, Killua burst in and everything went to hell.

Gloves was so excited by Killua that she accidentally started zapping out lighting bolts everywhere.

Yumi - still in control of speech - yelled at him to run.

To leave her.

To be safe.

Yet, even as she pleaded and begged, he drew closer.

Tears dripped down her face.

The last boy that got close.

Daisuke.

Remembering him sent a spasm of electricity up and down Glove's spine.

Even through the thick cotton hoodie Yumi wore,

If Killua made contact, he would surely die.

"Don't come any closer." Yumi whimpered.

"Why not?"

"I'll kill you..."

"How?"

"I'm cursed... No one can touch me without dying."

"Is that why..."

"Yes. That's why I wear the gloves."

"But, you haven't lately."

"Please, I have no time to explain. Leave, she'll kill you if you don't."

"Who?"

"Gloves!"

"But-"

"Please! Leave!"

Killua had never been so confused in his life.

Gloves was Yumi, and Yumi was Gloves.

So why did Yumi treat Gloves like she was someone else?

Yumi was going at the wall again,

And despite her warnings,

Killua reached towards her.

He wouldn't allow her to be hurt.

To protect her, he'd risk death.
