Hisoka and Kamikuro had arrived at the sight of the second part of the exam and placed leorio up against a tree. Kamikuro was pretty much clinging to Hisoka and refused to let go, most likely because she was still spooked about almost losing him in the fog, Hisoka didn't mind much. The two noticed that gon had arrived, and when he looked at them, Hisoka pointed at where leorio was with the hand that didn't have a person clinging to it.

Satotz spoke to the remaining applicants and then left. The doors behind him opened up to two people and a lot of tables, the smaller person told the applicants to enter and that her name was Menchi and she was the examiner for the second phase, the man behind her said his name was Buhara. Kamikuro looked directly into Menchis eyes and smiled her weird, disturbing, smile. She could tell this made Menchi uncomfortable. There was a loud noise, almost like a grumble, so menchi stood up and told all the applicants what the second phase would be. After a dramatic pause, Menchi told everyone that they would be cooking, which surprised basically everyone there.

When she was asked why they were cooking, she stood up and proudly said that they were gourmet hunters. Almost everyone started laughing and didn't really seem impressed, and when they were done laughing someone asked, very sarcastically, what they wanted them to make. Buhara, the man behind Menchi, stood up and said that the required ingredient would be pork. He also said that they could use any kind of pig from the forest. He slapped his stomach and yelled out that the exam second phase would now begin! Everybody ran off in the direction of the forest to look for a pig.

when Kamikuro and Hisoka reached the forest, Kamikuro didn't even try to look for a pig.

"Hey kami," Hisoka started, "are you going to look for a pig or not?"

Kamikuro looked him straight in the eyes and huffed, "You know I'm terrible at cooking Hisoka! I'm obviously not gonna pass this year's hunter exam, so I'll just curl up in a ball in a tree or something and die while I wait for you." Kamikuro sat at the base of a tree and did indeed curl into a ball.

Hisoka sighed and picked her up by the back of her shirt to set her down on his shoulder, "well maybe by some miracle you'll be able to make something decent and you pass, so you're going to come with me and find a pig."

Kamikuro grumbled but didn't get down, she nodded her head and Hisoka ran off with her on his shoulder. They walked around for a minute or two before they heard screaming, they looked behind them and saw a herd of pigs right behind them. Hisoka quickly jumped out of the way, but Kamikuro jumped off his shoulder and onto the pigs back. She took out her Katar and stabbed the pig in the head and until it stopped moving. Kamikuro climbed off the pigs back and grabbed onto its tail so she could drag it behind her, she found Hisoka and he also had a dead pig in hand.

Everyone that caught a pig ran back to where the examiners were so they could cook their pig. Everything was going smoothly for everyone, until there was an explosion. Everyone looked at the source of the explosion and saw a small girl in red standing in front of a large pile of blue slime.

"HOW THE FUCK DID I EVEN DO THIS?!" She yelled to herself.

Hisoka looked over to the panicked girl to see Kamikuro curled up in a ball lying on the ground, he then remembered that one time she failed at making cereal. Cooking and Kamikuro don't mix and will never mix ever. Kamikuro had given up and completely shut out every noise so she could sit on the ground and wallow in shame, that was what she was doing until Hisoka kicked her. She looked up to see an old man talking to Menchi, and then a blimp was brought down to the group.

Kamikuro was thoroughly confused and looked up at Hisoka, "Hey, what's happening right now?" She saw everyone walking onto the blimp, "Am I the only one that didn't pass!? Seriously!"

Hisoka picked her up and set her on his shoulder and then gave her an answer, "The examiner actually refused to pass anyone, so we're going to a different place so we can retake the second phase."

Kamikuro sighed and put her arm on Hisoka's head as if he was an armrest, then she started laughing quietly. Apparently, the scenario was hilarious to her. They got on the blimp and followed the crowd to a large room where they would wait to arrive. Kamikuro didn't climb off of Hisoka's shoulder so Hisoka stayed standing and leaned against a wall, Kamikuro was bored so she listened to what people were saying.

"Who's that tiny girl? She's sitting on Hisoka's shoulder like a parrot!"
"Do you think they're related?"
"I bet she's as dangerous as he is."
"Maybe they're siblings."
"She's probably his little sister!"

Older sister, Kamikuro thought. She jumped off of her little brother's shoulder and sat next to him, Hisoka sat down too. She rummaged around in her pocket until she found another piece of wood to carve. As she carved into the wood she lost track of time and before she knew it they had arrived, so Hisoka picked her up and put her back on his shoulder. When they stepped out onto the mountain she wasn't really expecting it to be split in half. Everyone walked to the edge of the mountain and looked down.

When Kamikuro looked down over the edge she didn't understand what she was seeing, it looked like a weird grid. She overheard Menchi saying it was a spider eagle web. Suddenly, a huge gust of wind came up from the crack and knocked someone over, then Menchi told everyone to look below the webs. Everyone looked farther down to see giant sacks of eggs hanging from the web, apparently, they were spider eagle eggs. Kamikuro knew what was going on and got really excited, she was basically holding herself back from just jumping over the edge. Menchi jumped over the edge and grabbed onto a part of the web and waited. After a while, she let go of the web and let herself fall, on her way to the bottom she grabbed an egg and disappeared into the fog. Without a warning, another huge gust of wind came up carrying Menchi, with the egg still in her hands, with it. Menchi landed behind a few of the applicants and held up the egg.

"I've been waiting for this!" Yelled Gon as he jumped off the cliff alongside his friends. Kamikuro squealed and pulled Hisoka off the cliff with her. Soon after, a bunch of people jumped off the cliff too. A large number of the applicants were soon hanging on the web, waiting to grab an egg. A man jumped off the web, eager to grab an egg, he did get one but then he fell to his death. Everyone watched the man fall and looked at Gon, who said they shouldn't jump yet. Everyone waited for Gon to say something about the wind again while they hung there. As they waited, the web began to give way and sag a little. A few more people jumped down to their death as the web continued to break, but most still held on. After a few more seconds Gon yelled "NOW" and everyone let go and fell to the eggs. Kamikuro grabbed an egg and giggled as she fell, when she felt the wind carry her up, the giggled evolved into an almost screaming laugh.

(Time skip)

Kamikuro took out the egg she had put into the boiling water and looked at it proudly, she was honestly just excited she had successfully passed something that had to do with cooking. She took off part of the shell and bit into the egg. Kamikuro had never had an egg that good and ate the rest of it quickly. She walked over to Hisoka, who had not yet taken the shell off his egg. She grabbed from his hand, stripped off the shell and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Aren't these eggs fucking awesome!?" Kamikuro yelled as Hisoka took the egg that was smashed into his face out of his mouth.

He swallowed and made a noise in agreement.

The people around Hisoka and Kamikuro went back to their gossiping about the two, and Kamikuro heard people say,

"They are totally related somehow."
"Do you think he even cares about her? He doesn't seem like the care that would care about anyone."
"If he didn't care do you really think he would let her sit on his shoulder?"
"Maybe he's using her somehow."
"She seems freaky, kinda like one of those old dolls with big eyes."

Kamikuro grumbled a little and climbed up Hisoka to sit on his shoulder, he didn't mind. She pulled a few fingers she stashed away out of her pocket and started eating them. They were kind of dry but she didn't mind. She finished off the rest of the stash of fingers while she waited to move on to the next part of the exam.
