"Maybe we should take this slow, just for a moment."

☆☆☆

You felt an abnormal pain in your left wrist, causing you to let out a sound that was a mix between screaming and laughing. Looking over at it, you saw some bruising and chaffing. 

'It looks like either rope chaffing or chain chaffing, either way, something it holding onto Killua and he probably just broke it,'  You thought to yourself, staring at the ugly mix of blue, purple, and green.

"Is something wrong?" Kurapika asked you, while Gon started questioning the lady. Shaking your head to his question, you looked over to see what they were talking about.

"He's in solitary confinement," you imagined she said that with a straight face, but you couldn't really tell. "Before he ran away from home, Killua stabbed his brother and me."

"Yes, that's what he told us," Kurapika answered.

You didn't remember Kurapika being there, but you decided that Gon must've said something to him about it.

"And because he had regretted what he had done," her eye shrunk, becoming more narrowed. "Our Killua returned to us and entered solitary confinement, willingly. In any case, we don't know when he'll want to leave," she suddenly sneered and her eye started going crazy. "What?! What is happening? What are you doing, father?" She seemed to be talking to herself, or maybe she was communicating with someone using her weird headset?

While she was yelling to someone, you felt your other wrist slightly feel like it could breathe better or maybe it was more like you didn't feel something pinching your skin anymore. You touched the bandages that wrapped around your face, feeling a bit of blood seep through.

The lady soon left, saying something about something else coming up. You weren't really paying attention. You looked over to the girl from before, making sure that she was still alive and well. Touching the side of her head, you pulled your hand back and saw some blood on it. You backed away when you saw her open her eyes, seeming to readjust to the bright sun.

"I will take you to the butlers quarters," she said, her mouth barely able to stay open. "There is a phone that connects directly to the mansion," she sat up and held her head in her hands, closing her eyes. "If Master Zeno answers it, then," she let out a grunt. 

"Who's Master Zeno?" Gon asked, before she could finish.

She set her hand down and looked at him, "He's Master Killuas grandpa." She said, opening her eyes. 

After helping her up, and after she told you to follow her, you tried to make some conversation. "So, what's your name?" You asked, walking next to her.

"It's Canary," she responded, not taking her eyes off of the road.

You sighed at her answer, "Glad I could put a name to a face. And Canary, like the bird?" You asked again, trying to keep the conversation.

"I don't really know, it's just the name I've had since I was found," Canary answered, shrugging her shoulders. 

"Found? Do you mean born?" You were confused as to how she phrased it.

"No, I was dumped at Meteor City and was found by someone, they named me Canary," she told you, a small smile landing on her lips.
