Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 21 (heaven's arena)

"Hey, Kurapika. How have you been?" I was a little confused as to how he got ahold of my phone number.

"I have been well, and yourself?"

"Good. Now what did you need help with?"

He took a deep breath and began talking. "This job I am planning on doing requires that I find a valuable treasure."

"That's interesting. What do you want me to keep an eye out for?"

"Um... That's incorrect actually. The item I'm looking for is the hair of a bryok clan member. I need a long braid but I can't find it anywhere. No one is selling it or even seems to have a lock of hair."

"I understand. You want to cut my hair, right?"

"Yes."

"*sigh* That's fine. I can meet you soon. When are you available?" We decided to meet up in a city close to YorkNew city. That's where he said his job would be closeby so I didn't mind the trip. I have business there soon myself. "Okay well I have to go. I'll see you soon, Kura." His kind sigh sounded before he said his goodbyes to me. I ran back inside the arena hoping that I didn't miss anything.

When I walked inside, Hisoka was walking off of the ring and Gin sat there in disbelief. It was clear that he lost and all of the jumbotrons with his loss posted on them wasn't helping.

'Damn. I missed it.'

Gon and Killua met up with me after the fight. We were walking back to our rooms when I told them I would be leaving.

"But you just got here!"

"Yeah, you can't leave yet! We were hoping you would travel with us for a while."

I giggled and unlocked my room. "Yeah I was hoping for that, too. I wasn't expecting to leave so early, but I have to. Someone needs me right now." I packed all of my stuff into my backpack.

"The troupe?" They ask.

I smiled at them. "No. Kurapika." I bent down and hugged them and ruffled their hair. "We'll meet again soon so lighten up!" I placed a small kiss on both of their foreheads and began heading to Hisoka to let him know I would be leaving. "Keep up your good work boys! And tell Wing and Zushi bye for me!" They called back a response and began walking to their own rooms.

'Okay. Last person to say bye to then I'm outta here!'

Hisoka was getting ready for a shower since he just came out of a fight. "Hisoka can I come in?"

"Of course little Angel." He had a towel loosely tied around his waist.

I wasn't surprised, or at least, I expected this so I wasn't shocked by it. "Hey I'm leaving now. Just wanted to let you know." I held my arms out for him.

"Alright but what's with the hurry?" He walked up to me and gave me the hug I was asking for.

"Kurapika. He needs my help right now so I'm going to go." He hummed to indicate that he understood. "I'll see you soon! Bye!" I called as I closed his front door.

Hisoka's POV

I feel like there's something really important that I'm supposed to tell her but I can't remember what it was.

I took my shower and attempted to recall what the message was. 'Machi told me, right? Oh! I remember! She told me to be in YorkNew city on August 30th and tell Angel to avoid the city then.'

Machi asked me to inform Angel about the second part because of all the troupe members, I would most likely have contact with her.

'Oh well. She's probably gone by now. What a pity and just when I remembered too!"
