Barriers

Hello my fellow Geeks! I know that I haven't been updating, but it's because my tablet broke and I completely forgot my password. So yeah, I forget a lot of things. For example, doing my chores (wink wink), that I'm cooking on the stove, picking up my sister after school. Just kidding on that last one.

TROTC is: what comes once in a minute, twice in a moment, but never in a thousand years?

Killua's POV

It took me a moment to realize where I was. My vision was a blur, but it quickly regained. I was in the dark forest. Next to me was Cristie, who had wide eyes. "Hey, you okay" I asked as I stood up. 

Her breathing was uneasy, causing me to raise an eyebrow. "Not again" she muttered to herself as she rocked back and forth against a tree. I pulled my phone from my pocket before putting the flash on.

"Cristie?" I turned my flash towards her. She looked at me before jumping up. "I'm sorry" she said as she cleared her throat. I shrugged it off before looking around. Nothing but trees surrounded us. I couldn't feel anyone's presence, but Cristie was still panicked. 

I could hear the uncontrollable increase in her heart, but I shrugged it off. "So where are we exactly" I asked as I folded my arms. She got up and looked around with a sour face. "Let's hope it's not the place I think it is" she said as she rubbed her arms.

I frowned but shrugged it off. "So how old are you" I asked out of the blue. She responded with a 'shh'. 

"Why are you so worried, there's no one here" I said with a shrug. She turned and bowed her head. "Excuse me for this please" she said before pulling my arm. She ran up the biggest tree before sitting down and looking around. 

I rolled my eyes before crossing my arms. "Like I said, there's no one. . ." I was interrupted by the sound of foot steps. I looked at two heavily armed men in boredom before killing them. I looked at Cristie with an amused smile. Horror was written across her face. I gave her a pat on the head.

"No need to be afraid, you have me" I said with a grin. She stayed silent as she looked at the dead bodies before her eyes turned a shade of yellow.

"Leon" she hissed in disgust. I raised my eyebrow before frowning. "I see you have come back to make my job harder, Crystal" a voice said. I couldn't see it, but I could sense it's presence now. I quickly noticed that my senses were falling behind for some reason.

Cristie stiffened. "I never seen this guy before, maybe I should kill him" he said coldly. The words almost made me laugh. His presence zoomed towards me, but I easily dodged it. 

My senses were totally lacking, because I dodged at the last minute. The husky voice chuckled. "He seems to be very strong" he complemented. I looked around until I could finally see the man. He was a muscular man with black eyes.

He wore a black suit and an amused grin that unpleasantly reminded me of Hisoka. "Especially since he's a human." Cristie suddenly groaned in annoyance as her eyes returned to normal. "You're annoying, weren't you banned from the forest or something?" she asked with a stoic expression.

He sweat dropped before gritting his teeth. "I see you're still the person you always were" he complemented before clearing his throat. "I am hunting down your sister, Amber. She's wanted...again" Cristie rolled her eyes. 

"Of course she is"she said sarcastically. "Have you seen her" he asked hopefully. A grin appeared on her face. "Have you seen her?" His sweat drop grew bigger. "That's why I asked you" he said in annoyance. 

"Are you sure, she could be right behind you." His eyes widened in panic as he looked behind him. She covered her mouth as she tried not to laugh. "What, where?" I chuckled. "She could be anything, but I can't rat out my sister like that." 

He gasped. "You hate your sister though" he exclaimed. "Did I ever say that" she said with a raised eyebrow. The man's eyes almost came out his sockets. "Yes, you said it over one thousand times" he exclaimed. Cristie's grin grew larger. "Did I, really" she asked. The man gulped. Cristie's eyes were suddenly full of concern.

"Leon, I'm worried about you." Her voice was soothing but some how mocking. I clearly understood what was happening. Cristie was some how getting in the man's head and confusing him.

Leon scratched the back of his head in confusion. "Anyway, we'll be going now." We jumped out of the tree before walking pass him. "Well, have a nice day" he said cheerfully. I take that back. He is nothing like Hisoka. Once he was out of sight, I looked at Cristie in confusion. "What just happened" I asked.

"That was Leon. He's a cop for our world, easily distracted and very...well, lets just say he has a head full of air. He's really strong, and he was going to kill you. I merely distracted him so we could escape."

I hope you guys liked the chapter. The answer to TROTC is: the letter m. I am really sorry for not writing this chapter sooner, but like I said, the tablet broke and the password was lost in the land of forgotten. You see what I did there? I have one more thing to say to you guys. Bye my fellow geeks!
