"Who the hell are you, and why are you around my house?"

"I'm always amazed at how you got a woman like her to stay around you, let alone marry you."
"I ask myself the same"

Hisoka the Magician and his wife? Yes Hisoka has a wife and she's one...
(831 Words) I awaken to a growl outside and quickly and quietly go downstairs and look out my backdoor to see 3 out of 5 wolves growling a figure in a defensive stance a bit a ways away. the figure has a male structure with fiery red gelled back hair, pale skin, golden amber eyes that glow in the moonlight, he's dressed that of a jester with card symbols on his shirt, and to finish his look he had a teardrop on one cheek and a star on the other with a smug smirk.

I grimace at the look he gave me when he caught sight of me. 'I need to end this quickly, I have training to do in the morning.' I modify my hand to where my nails are sharp as knives and lunge at him aiming for his neck. As soon as I'm within reach of his neck, he grabs my wrist and we look at each other in the eye and I feel the spike of bloodlust aimed at me. I quickly kick him on the chest hard enough for him to let me go and jump away from him several feet. "Awe and just when I thought we were going to play.~" The intruder's voice says with a that sounds like a sub in it of its self. "Who the hell are you and what are you doing near my house so late at night?" I look over him irritated that my sleep is being compromised. "I was simply looking for somewhere to rest for the night and thought this place would be perfect because of its appearance. I did not know there would be someone staying here let alone have guard dogs." "That's the point."I rub my temples."Most people with common sense don't go into a place that looks like it about to cave in on itself if you breathe too hard." Irritation in every word I had said. "I see your point." He smiles. "Could I trouble you for a ro-" "Nope." I cut him off immediately. "I would happily pay." He tries to persuade me. "I have no use of your money. I also like being alone." "Only for tonight and I'll leave in the morning." He insists. "Ugh fine. I want you gone in the morning. Follow me." I turn around towards my backdoor and walk in with him behind me. "Oh my. Quite the interior decorator, aren't you?" He questions me looking around the fairly modern house. "Yea I guess you could say that, and don't touch anything. Here's where you'll be sleeping for the night. The bathroom is right across for here and my bedroom is upstairs. I highly doubt you'll be needing me for tonight. Toodles darling." I turn around and start walking towards the stair but I stop misstep and then back around, "Wait, what is your name?" I ask looking through the door. "Hisoka Morow the magician." He bows "And you are?" "Ivy." I state bluntly. "No surname?" He raises an eyebrow but his smirk never falters. "I do not associate with my last name. Night." I turn back around and go to my room. "Looks like I'm gonna be staying up for a bit longer. With the rise in his bloodlust earlier I'd much rather him fall asleep before me." I grab a random book off the bookshelf near my door, walk into my room closing the door, and falling into my bed. 'His nen is so strong when he isn't using Hatsu. I would hate to be on the receiving end if he uses ren his ren.' I shudder at the thought. I may be strong but I haven't fought against an actual person in 4 years only 'i hope he just leaves in the morning like he said he would.' I open the book in my hands seeing that its one of the books I've already read at least 3 times over but it's still a good book. I prop my back against my headboard and read the words on the pages for the 4th time now. "With every heartbeat, there are hundreds of thousands on blood cells carrying oxygen to your brain and everywhere else in your body giving you life. Though the same thing giving you life can also end it such as blood clots, but your body does its best to keep this from happening and keep your blood flow steady. Aren't you happy that your body does this on its own and you don't have to think of every little thing. Many of us wouldn't even be here because our ancestors would have died as so as they were born before their parents could teach them." The words on the pages trapped my concentration as I continued to read. Everything around me becoming gray but my senses still on high alert in case the guest downstairs decided to give me problems. 'Yea I'm gonna be finishing this again by tonight."
