The first phase of the exam started and apparently, Kusanagi was in an awkward situation. There was no problem running for long, but only this time she wasn't in good shape. Her head was ruining her! And all groaning men around her made her quite irritated.

'Keep calm, [Y/n]. You won't get anywhere if you get angry.'

She had to find something to distract her. She glanced around and her eyes fell into two boys who apparently spoke enthusiastically about who knows what kind of childish stuff. She approached them and tap gently on the backs. They turned around startled and seeing who was behind them was enough to make them frown worriedly their eyebrows.

Kusanagi raised her own curiously. "What's wrong? Did you saw a monster or something?"

The boy with the dark-green hair immediately shook his head. "No! Nothing like that. You are very beautiful!"

The black-haired lady laughed and ruffled his hair. "Why, thank you, sweetheart. I can say the same for you."

Gon blushed like a tomato and shrugged his shoulders. "T-thank you."

Killua just looked curiously and studied the situation, but he didn't hesitate to ask, "What is your relationship with the clown?"

"The Clown? Ah, Hisoka? Last night we met for the first time!"

Killua stumbled for a moment. "And you flirted so openly with this psychopath?!"

"Did I flirt? We had a normal conversation."

"Yes, that's why you almost didn't kill each other with your eyes."

The red-eyed girl smiled slyly. "Were you worried about me?"

Zoldyck blushed just like Gon a minute ago and began to stutter. "O-of course not, stupid!"

[Y/n] ran and just listened to them and watched for a long time. These children were nice, she liked them. And though they had made a brief conversation for the first time today, she was already feeling inexplicable proximity. But there was a slight fear. Don't get too attached. It will break you if someone hurts them. It will come out. That thing.

When she recovered from all these thoughts, she was already outside that tunnel. She was enveloped by nature, covered by a thick fog. There were a good number of people around her, four of whom were the boys she'd been eyeing. On the ground, not far from her, was a corpse with cards on it, on the other side Satotz held three, and Hisoka was just preparing other ones. Why did she miss so many things today?

Before she realized, she was running again. But this time she had to be closely behind Satotz. She didn't have to be distracted if she didn't want to have a lot of problems with this fog. From all these explanations that the examiner said, she only heard that there would be dangerous beings. She didn't need unnecessary shortening of life, caused by some shitty creature scaring her.

But no matter how focused she was, she lost everyone for her greatest misfortune. There was no one around her, she could only hear screaming and animals growling. Not that she had any idea where she was, there was no reason to stop. Kusanagi ran for about 20 more minutes and finally decided to just stop. Nothing would change if she didn't have a sense of direction.

'Who knows where I'll go if I don't calm down and focus.'

She looked around several times and not far from her, she could see familiar red hair. At least Hisoka was nearby, she could stay with him. She was about to go to him but stopped again, seeing about ten people in a circle, ready to attack the tall man in the middle.
