Barriers

CrystalXSix

Hello my fellow Geeks. Did I mention that on the last chapter when I was writing down the story, it took me a long time to notice my dad hovering over me. In fact, if my brother never laughed at him, I wouldn't have noticed him at all. 

He was all like 'you're a good writer, I could never do anything like that' and I was all like 'yeah, I definitely deserve money for that'. And then my dad started laughing as if to say 'you THOUGHT!!!!!!' *Sniff* *sniff* I am NOT CRYING okay?! *Sniff* *sniff*. 

Anyways, let's change the subject. TROTC is: You will always find me in the past. I can be created in the present, but the future can never taint me. What am I?

Exclaimer: I do not own HxH, only Crystal and her world

Crystal POV

I stamp down the forest. I scowled at the path in front of me, forgetting that Killua was there. "Why are you so mad" he suddenly said. I was furious. I was infuriated with my sister, but instead of saying that, I sighed.

"Sorry M..." "Killua, call me Killua" he assured. I blushed. "Yes, Killua" I obeyed. Killua looked at me with a raised eyebrow. He had had his hands in his pockets and held a bored expression. "You don't have to be so formal, besides, we're friends now."

I couldn't help but smile. "But..." "Just act like you were before this happened." 

I was flattered at his kindness. I was so glad that I served a person like him. "So why are you so mad?" I made a sour face. "When we get back to Earth I am going to strangle my sister" I growled.

Killua sweat dropped, but quickly hid it. "Oh, you mean Amber" he said with a nod. "So if we're not on Earth, where are we" he asked.

How could he be so calm when saying those words? My eyes quickly widened. "Watch out" I hissed as I pushed him to the ground. He muttered something as he seen the arrow aiming at the tree. I scowled at him. "If you hadn't went on killing random guards, then we probably wouldn't be in this mess" I hissed.

He grinned. "Is Cristie mad" he teased. I glared at him before pulling him up. There were now lines of arrows getting aimed at us. We deflected them easily, but I was surprised that Killua could keep up.

"Shut up, you annoying chocoholic" I hissed. He made himself look offended. "Don't your master deserves some respect" he said mockingly. I folded my arms. "You told me to be myself." He grinned even wider. 

I pushed him into a tree, making sure an arrow wouldn't hit him. "Well I didn't know how disrespectful you would turn out to be." I gasped before rolling my eyes.

I pulled him by the arm and led him out of the forest. Suddenly an arrow was stuck to Killua's backside. I hissed in pain as I fell down. Killua looked like he barely noticed it, but then he looked at me. He deadpanned.

My breathing became shallow. "Oh, come on, you didn't even get hit" he complained as my vision went black. The last thing I heard was "I'll go kill them."

Killua frowned as he slowly walked towards the direction of the directed arrows. He easily dodged them or caught them when he finally looked at wide eyed guards. It was about six of them, but he killed five. 

Then he turned his hands into claws and threatened the last one. "I'll kill you quickly if you tell me the direction of a hotel" he said silently. The man quickly told him the directions before Killua killed him.

Crystal woke up in a comforting bed. It was dark as she got up. She slowly walked to the open window that the moonlight shone above. She took a deep breath.

Crystal took a deep breath as she cleaned the blood of her temples. She had been with her master for three months, but still hadn't got used to the pain. Never in her life she'd expect something other than this life that she had come to live with.

She knew there was nothing she had done to deserve such a thing, but she also knew that she didn't have to. Crystal was something that her world didn't respect. She was something designed  to show her master pleasure.

Whatever they demanded was what she did. She had no right to do anything other. Her eyes were lifeless. 

No one cared about her. She was something that didn't deserve any respect, but had to give respect to others. Crystal was a Jewel. Given away to men and woman to serve them in the exchange for money.

It was not something that Crystal could change, for that was not the thing that she was responsible for. She wanted to rebel against the rules, only to know there was no way out. There was no way to get her ring back, only the Jewels of the unnatural could do so.

"Crystal" her master called. The 12 year old stiffened, but made her way to her master.

"Hey" Killua's voice was soft. Crystal looked at the boy. "Huh" she asked. He grinned. "Why did you pass out, you weren't the one getting hit." Crystal shrugged. "Since you have control of my ring, if you are to get hurt, I will feel the pain two times stronger" she explained.

Killua's grin grew wider. "So if I cut myself right now it would hurt you" he asked. Crystal raised an eyebrow. "But you wouldn't." Killua folded his arms. "And why not." "Because I would stop you." Killua chuckled. 

"You amuse me." Crystal rolled her eyes. "What are you" he asked. "I will explain that later, right now we need to rest."

*Sniff* *sniff* I know what you're thinking, and I am not crying because of what my dad did. I simply have something in my eyes. 

The answer to TROTC is: History

I hope you really liked this chapter, because I spent all morning trying to figure out the right things to say. I have one more thing to say to you guys. Bye my fellow Geeks!
