( Kitty POV )
"We reached the 80 kilometers mark. Now let's pick up the pace a bit, shall we?" Satotz said calmly and began speeding up his walking.
Wait we already reached 8o kilometers already? How long has it been? "Hey! Wait for me Satotz!" I shouted and continued running up the stairs to catch up behind him but he was too fast for me.
Maybe I'm pushing myself a little to hard I should probably stay same pace as Gabriella, where is she anyway?
I slowed down a bit letting some of the applicants passed by me and I see Gabriella running near Kurapika. "Hey." I greeted as I got closer to them.
"You're tired already Kitty?" I shook my head at Kurapika question.
"Nope just waiting up on you guys!" I pulled out another cherry lollipop and shove it in my mouth.
I heard some loud pantings, it's Leorio! He took off his shirt and jacket, and he sweaty like crazy! "I like your new look Leorio." I complimented.
"I don't know if that was insult or sarcasm but I don't care I need to pass this hunter exam!" He shouted and began running even faster, I giggled a bit at his reaction.
I see Gon and cute little boy next to him "See you at the finish line!" I heard Gon shouts.
"Catch you later old man!" The little boy with white hair said to Leorio.
"Hey I'm not old! Can't you tell I'm teenager just like you!?" All the boys face expression dropped to shock, they didn't know Leorio was teenager too?
( Gabriella POV )
We all kept running Gon and his friend went ahead of us as I stay with Kurapika and Kitty. And Leorio seem to be a bit ahead from us as well.
"Hey! Don't give up just yet! We're almost there!" Kitty shouted at the other applicants that were slowing down their pace or pass out on the stairs.
"What's the point of encouraging others? Less of them make it easier for us to become hunters." Kurapika asked.
"Yeah your right but if someone is cheering on for you it makes you feel better and want to keep on going! So I do it so people don't give up so easily." Kitty explained.
"So Kitty why do you want to become hunter?"
She smiled "Because my father was a professional hunter and before his death he wished one of us to continue his legacy!" I rolled my eyes at her answered, why did dad want us to become hunters?
"So same thing with you Gabriella?" I shook my head at Kurapika.
"No, I don't want to be a hunter. I'm only here to watch over Kitty to not get herself killed." He nodded.
I saw bright light as we continue going up the stairs, is it finally the exit? "Look it's the exit!" Kitty shouted.
***
We all got out the tunnel, finally! We all catch our breath as we wait for the other applicants to finished. I see Kitty crouching down picking up a dandelion from the ground. It's quite foggy outside but it seems to be clearing up a bit, I heard a loud noise behind me.
