I do not own any characters from this story or the original story itself. The only thing I own is Aria I guess, and other OC's that are created by me. This is my first FanFiction so please be kind. Also, I appreciate constructive criticism. And English is not my first language so excuse my mistakes! But you may point them out tho =)

This story is going to be about Kurapika's time within the Nostrade Organization. He has been gone for waayyy too long in the manga/anime. And when he returned, he didn't seem very friendly. But I have to say, the new Kurapika is rather sexy and I'm liking his dangerous, bad boy attitude. ( I was fangirling all over Kurapika vs Uvogin in the anime) I'll probably rate this M for later ideas that I will explore :$.

"He threatened me" I stated as I looked at the beautiful purple haired woman that goes by the name Eliza. Her face was a mixture of shock and concern. Her arms flew around my body as I rested my face on her shoulder. I tried to keep my composure but I was on the verge of crying.
My lips quivered as I tried to speak.

"Eliza, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be bothering you with my problems. You've been through too much"

"Aria, it's okay, I'm glad that you trust me. It means the world to me since you've also let me cry on your shoulder when Squala..."

She immediately stopped talking after mentioning his name.
I looked at her, guilt evident on my face.

"I'm sorry, I made you remember it. I d-d-didn't mean t-to bring..."

"It's okay!" A weak smile appeared on her face as she released me and got up.

We were on the 14th floor in a very luxurious hotel as we guarded Neon Nostrade in the room next to us.
Well... that's what we should have been doing, but thanks to a blond haired asshole, I was currently very incapable of doing my work.

'What if he comes up here to check on her?' It would mean bad news for Eliza and especially for me.

I could see Eliza's mirror image as she walked up to the window to look at the view below.

Her eyes reflected the city lights and it made her look even more stunning. She turned around and looked at me.

"Let's not change the subject. Tell me, what happened?"

"Well.."

It was safe to say that Kurapika saved the Nostrade family from going under.
Light Nostrade would've been nothing if it weren't for Kurapika's quick decision making skills. But Kurapika needs this organization just as much as it needs him.
He has a hidden agenda that he's been trying to carry out, and probably no one knows about it.
Well.. except for me now. I never would've thought that he was a member from that clan.

Those eyes... the scarlet eyes. As beautiful as they were, I feared them. I never wanted to see them again.

It was a cold and rainy morning. I walked towards an old building in what seemed like a deserted village.

A shiver ran down my spine as I opened the heavy door. I hated this place. It was the one of the places Light Nostrade used to assemble certain members that were about to receive a shady mission.

'Who will I be teamed up with and how dangerous will this mission be?'

I entered a room at the end of the hallway and saw a couple of guys seated around a wooden table.

They ogled me as I walked past them and sat down a chair that put most distance between us.

I sat there for a couple of minutes, annoyed at the stares that I was receiving. "Pigs" I muttered under my breath.

The smallest guy with huge teeth chuckled. I raised my eyebrow, surprised by his good ears.

The door opened, revealing a blond guy that looked around my age.
He was dressed in a nice suit and was carrying some documents with him.

'So he is our mission leader? He certainly doesn't look like one.' Aria thought to herself.

He walked past the guys and sat down on the empty chair beside me.

I looked at him as he adjusted some of the documents.

'This is probably going to be a boring mission' Sigh...

"Hello, Kurapika. It's been awhile. How have you been?"
The small guy said looking at the blond.

'So his name is Kurapika, huh? Strange name.'

"Oi, kid. So you're Kurapika?!" One of the guys said.

"Affirmative" the blond replied.

"No way!" a man said disbelieved.

"This is the guy that's been handling Nostrade's fuckery ever since his dumbass daughter became useless? What a joke!" another man mocked.

The wary atmosphere quickly turned into a lunchroom as most of the males started laughing.

Not for long though. My eyes widened as I felt hostile nen emitting from the guy seated beside me.

"Shut up"

Feeling the same fiendish aura, the guys stopped laughing.

"If you ever dare to insult the Nostrade family again, I will have every single one of you exterminated and your families vanished from the face of the earth"

He meant every word he said. I could see it in his eyes. I could hear it in his voice.

The small guy shifted uncomfortably as the room quieted down.

"We are terribly sorry, sir. It seems like mister Nostrade was correct to appoint you as leader of our organization. Please forgive the rude interruption".

'Wait, what?' Aria thought.

'This guy's been leading the organization? No way! What happened to Nostrade?'

I looked at the blond sitting next to me.

'This guy... he's the living definition of never judge a book by its cover.'

"Yes, well let's continue" He said annoyed, dismissing the apology.

"An unfortunate event occurred during our visit of the auction in Yorknew city, which has left miss Neon unable to use her ability.
We are currently trying our hardest to prioritize the damage done to our organization's reputation, while trying to sustain her safety.
You are among the strongest and most valuable bodyguards of this organization, which is why some of you are appointed to guard miss Neon during her travels.
Naturally, I will be accompanying you, but our missions are not to be united."

"While some of you will focus on protecting Neon, others will proceed to do other tasks. You're mission is extensively elaborated in the documents that i'll hand you."

"My focus will be on reconciling business partners, while yours are solely on safekeeping miss Neon."

It's safe to assume that my previous position wasn't important enough to receive information about Nostrade's condition, because this is the first time I've heard about Neon's situation, while others seem to be well aware of her current situation. And I clearly heard Kurapika say that we are the 'strongest and most valuable bodyguards' which definitely meant that I've upgraded my position within this organization.

'Way the go, Aria!' I inwardly cheered.

"Are there any questions" Kurapika said, making me snap out of my thoughts.

"So you seem to be our current leader. What happened to mister Light Nostrade?" I asked.

Kurapika looked at me.

"Mister Nostrade is on a needed vacation. He is currently unable to continue his work for the organization.
I presume you are miss Aria?"

"Yes, sir!"

"You will be appointed as Miss Neon's personal assistant. You will work along with another assistant who will guide you."

Aria gave him a confused expression.
"May I ask why I've been appointed as her personal assistant? I've never had a mission within this organization that comes anywhere close to guarding someone"

"It's quite simple. Miss Neon is a lady and so are you. She needs individuals who guard her and individuals who make her feel safe. You are the full package which is what makes you most suitable for the position of an assistant."

I looked at him with the best poker face I had.

"Are there any other questions?" He asked as silence filled the room.

'THIS IS NOT THE TYPE OF MISSION I WAAAAANT!' I screamed inwardly.

So there's the first chapter! Took me half my night to write it. But I enjoyed it!

I would like to mention that I will make Kurapika colder than he appeared to be in the anime. But that's because this story takes place after Yorknew, and he doesn't have his friends around, and no good influences, and I like bad boys and yadayadayada. So just to be clear, Gon, Killua and Leorio will not be in this story. They will get mentioned tho. Hope that's ok.

Untill next time! Byee!
