*BANG*
A loud crash behind me made me spin my head around, followed by my body. A tall wall, may I add, the tallest around, collapsed and crumble up into millions of tiny stones. I ran over, thinking about him.

Was this the sign?

I reached the wall seconds later, but turned around instantly, as I noticed that this was a trap. Hisoka should've been in front of me, not behind, or he wouldn't be able to guide me. So, I ran back. I estimated the timer to now state that around 21 minutes remain. Shit. This has to end quick....

I jumped up, flipped, and landed on the elevator. I climbed inside quickly, again, showing my tendency for cat like movements. It zoooommmmeeeed up, like it did with Hisoka, spitting me out in a small room. I looked around, the little cabin in which Hisoka originally sat was now empty. But as little trace of....was that gum?, lead outside the cabin up a hidden latter. Nice use of bungee gum...

As I climbed up the latter, I decided to hide my presence, since I would want to be spotted by anyone unpleasant. I almost reached the top latter, when I heard voices from above.

"I trust her. I don't know why you're even trying to keep us apart, *quiet chuckle*, that was Hisoka's voice.

"Well, I must apologize but these are my ordered procedures", was that...an examiner? Most likely it was.

Waiting for the perfect moment, I jumped up, flipped swiftly and used my advantage of speed and flexibility to turn the situation Hisoka was in. I held a knife under the throat of the examiner, and stared down at Hisoka. He wasn't hurt at all, nor did he look as if there'd been a fight. Only his hair was a bit tousled, and his hands tied behind his back. Although, at a closer glance, it looked like he already loosened the knots, and was able to escape any moment. That dumbass, I laughed. A loud bell rang through the room, as the the examiner I held hostage announced our win.

We were back in the room we started in. Nothing changed. It all looked untouched, with the only difference that instead of question 1, there now was question 2.

"Hey, you noticed the fact that the question number decreased?", Hisoka asked me. "Huh? Oh hold up, youre right. There are only 5 questions left, instead of 7...whys that?" I asked him, and looked into his golden eyes, full of curiosity. He just shrugged his shoulders in response, glancing up onto the timer. "19 minutes left, huh?" He whispered in thought. "Oh look", I exclaimed, "the second question has been revealed!!" I stared onto the screen, reading the question.

>ITS A GAME OF TRUST, POWER, TEAMWORK, AND COORDINATION. THIS ISN'T A QUESTION, BUT A TASK. WORK TOGETHER. DEFEAT THE ENEMIES. <

"Hmmm, looks like the questions turned into tasks, maybe that's why the number decreased?" I thought aloud and turned my head back to Hisoka, only to find him watching me already. I blushed slightly, and fiddled with my fingers in embarrassment. He only chuckled. I giggled. It was this magic moment where we were able to communicate without words...

This time we entered a stadium like room. Around us were stairs made up of stone, on which people in fighting gears sat. Some were large, others bulky. Some possessed animal features, others didn't have any hands. One, uhh, creature, especially caught my eye. He was slim. Tall. His eyes were thin, but gloomed in a mystic blue. Not a natural blue, but a chemical one, an artificial, supernatural luminous turquoise. His clothes were made out of thick white cloth, with a large majestic cape covering his back. His golden hair curved around his figure, and stopped shortly before the floor. On his shoes there were single engravings, made out of pure gold. His hands were soft, and firmly held onto a long sword, which gently lay along his hip, waiting restlessly in command for action. His eyes caught mine, and his thin lips spread into an angry grin.
