Let The Pieces Fall

Who are you?!

Amber eyes slowly open to the darkness that encompassed the room. It was as though he hadn't closed his eyes. He wiggled around and heard a shift of soft fabric that was over him. Gon believed that he was in his room however things felt off.

The atmosphere felt cold and the sound of gears turning told him otherwise. His vision soon became accustomed to the dark to see a transparent curtain surrounding the bed he was in. The boy slowly got up and placed his feet onto the cold tile floor, bringing shocks throughout his legs. He walked towards the curtains and slowly moved them aside.

Where am I?

Eyes scanned the area and noticed that there are gifts that were wedged in the corner of the room. He walked towards them and knelt down, picking a random one up. It was an envelope. He opened the envelope and read the words plastered on the card.

"I hope you get better Gon. I know you'll survive."

The card was anonymous but a business card was attached to the inside. It displayed an address and a number.

"What is this even for?" He whispered as he flipped the card around hoping that it had more information.

His sight drifted towards a item that stood out the most. It was a wooden fishing pole and near the handle there was a envelope attached. He gingerly placed the business card in between his teeth and opened the envelope with his hands. The words on the card looked faint and delicate as though if it were pressed down hard enough, the letters will fall to pieces.

I know you'll need this when you get better.

-Killua

The name was slightly smudged by a faint spot that looked like a tear stain.

"Ki-llua?" Gon mouthed the words through clenched teeth as to not drop the card, but nothing came to mind. It made Gon's heart heavy from looking at the name.

This became very frustrating.

He took the business card from his mouth and looked at it once more.

Maybe this will give me the answers I need.

Gon spent minutes carefully looking through all of the gifts he received with names attached to them, but nothing looked familiar except for one. It was a stuffed foxbear and the tag has the name Mito written on it.

"Aunt?"

It was the only name he could recall out of all he received which unsettled Gon.

Maybe I need to find her instead.

Gon stood up, roamed around the room, and found the exit door. He stepped out of the room which led to an empty parking lot. The loose gravel of the road rubbed against Gon's feet making small but visible cuts on the sole and heel. The frigid breeze was constant, bringing chills to be sent up his spine. He wrapped himself with his arms to create some heat but it wasn't to the amount he wanted it to be. Tilting his head up, he viewed that the sky was painted black, but bright stars splattered the canvas.

Thinking that he needed to stay in the room until morning arrived, he started to head back but a voice halted him.

"I see your alive.~" The voice was deep and carried a hint of enthusiasm as it was carried through the breeze, bringing a wave of tension throughout Gon's form.

Gon instinctively placed his fists up in the air in a battle stance as he whipped his head back and forth in search for the source of the noise.

"Who are you!" His voice quivered, but it still held the determination as he yelled to no where in particular hoping that the volume will fend off the stranger.

"Don't tell me you forgot who I am,~" The voice chuckled as it became louder.

A red-haired man suddenly appeared before Gon and the atmosphere he held made Gon shudder. The figure's golden eyes narrowed as he paced towards the boy, the corners of his mouth upturned into a grin as he gracefully placed his fingers up to his chin.

Gon still doesn't understand who this man was and why he was here. Gon's feet backed up as the man got dangerously closer.

"Do you remember our deal we made in heavens arena?~"

"Deal?" Gon echoed "What deal?". He would of remembered if he made a deal with a person who's appearance looked so odd.

The man didn't appear to like Gon's response as his grin was replaced with a frown. "That the next time we fight our lives will be placed on the line." He answered seriously.

"What!" Gon said bewildered "What are you talking about?!" Without looking behind him he stumbled on a larger piece of gravel. Suddenly he heard a rush of air followed by a strong impact on the side of his face as he went flying across the parking lot.
