Chapter 1:
[ Queen's Laboratory ]
She unconsciously smiled with her proud eyes staring at a crystal-like piece as she hold it carefully. Suddenly, the door bursted open where Gon, Killua, Leorio and Kurapika emerged.
"Gon, Killua, Leorio, Kurapika! You came!" Queen slightly tilted her head to see the four of them and called out to their names. "Better not waste my time for calling us out in the middle of the night. So where is the portal or machine you are talking about?" Killua asked boredly as he walked towards Queen with both of his hands inside his pockets.
"Well, I was asleep the whole morning so I called you out this time and besides it still early" She answered.
Queen faced him and bent down to show him the machine or portal he was talking about-- The crystal she was holding earlier.
When Killua saw the crystal, he looked up at Queen with a confused gaze and his eyebrows furrowed. "What? That's just a crystal. I was hoping for a something like a time machine or portal" Killua's face showed that he was not interested. Queen heaved a sigh and placed a chair besides her to sit on.
She crossed her legs and leaned back on her chair, "This is not an ordinary crystal, this is like a portal. When you place this on that machine, it will create a portal leading to another dimension" She pointed at a circular machine where a crystal like the one she is holding is placed on the center floating with black fragments around it.
"Once you activated the machine, it will suck every living person inside, no warnings" She adddd to her explanation.
"Can you set a place, dimension or location to go to?" Kurapika asked. Queen lowered her head and shooked it as a way of saying 'no'
"How can you come back?" Gon asked and sat down on the cold floor like a student listening to its teacher.
"Just use the crystal again" Queen simply answered. "Can you carry the machine inside?" Leorio asked her.
"It will suck it inside leaving no copy from the past place or dimension" She answered. "Does it work? Does it have no errors? Is it breakable?" Killua suddenly became interested and started to attack her with questions.
"Well, yeah, sort of, maybe. I mean, it's still not complete-- the return one isn't complete or still fixed. So please be careful and don't press anything especially that blue button"
"Why?" The 4 of them asked in unison. "The Blue button is to activate the portal. The red one would be the return button. If you pressed the blue button while this machine is quite broken, we will be sucked inside and we will never return except that we need to travel every freaking dimension"
"Why travel or go to every dimension if you can make another one?" Killua asked his eyebrows furrowed. "How can i make another one?! I mean, it will take me like years and the materials are rare that there is a high chance for you to not find it on another dimensions or place!"
"Wait, i'm slightly confused. Can you summarize it or something?" Kurapika leaned his back on the wall waiting for Queen to answer.
"I also don't get it" Leorio finally spoke as he was silent and not speaking earlier.
"Me too" Gon raised his hand and Killua also raised his.
Queen heaved a sigh and massaged her temples, "If you pressed the blue button when the machine is like quite broken or something, we will be sucked in along with the machine but this machine is still not complete and it have multiple errors including the return or red button not working. The only way to get back is to travel every dimension or if possible, we will collect the materials for making this machine as we travel, get it?" Her voice was quite stern and she have this irritated look on her face as she explain like, she have been talking for hours and no one didn't understand her.
"Oh, i get it now" Leorio stated and repeatedly nodding as well as Gon. Killua and Kurapika were silent as always.
"Now then, I will remind you one more time, never ever press the blue butto--" In the midst of speaking, the glass suddenly broke making the shattered pieces fly in the air. Queen who was startled didn't reacted fastly as someone flew towards her and slashed her cheek and her arm making a red-warm liquid flowed down her cheeks and arm. Blood dripped down the floor. The sleeves of her white laboratory gown were now painted in red.
She jumped back far away from the enemy holding her wounded arm. She pulled out a circle thing and a hologram popped out. It was a healing potion or drink. She took it and the hologram became pure solid now. She quickly drank it and it feels like her arms and cheeks are being massaged softly and the wounds healed completely.
She held out her hand and a cube suddenly appeared floating right above it. She positioned her hands like she was holding a gun and suddenly she felt something cold. Two guns magically appeared on her hands.
She looked at her enemy and smirked when she saw who was it, "Nobunaga" She whispered his name. She also looked around and saw Gon, Kurapika, Leorio, Killua and even Hisoka fighting with the other Phantom Troupe members.
How did Hisoka ended up here? Was he hiding? Where did he came out? Shs asked herself but ended up shrugging for having no answer with the questions on her mind. Don't mind it, I should be thankful that he is also here helping us fight the Phantom Troupe.
Completely off-guarded, Nobunaga swiftly and quietly tried to attack Queen but avoided the glass shard on the floor making his waist bump into the table's edge. Queen laughed at his failure for a moment, "What in the world were you doing? This always happens to you whenever you try to attack me"
"Shut up" Nobunaga angrily said and regained his composure and put on a samurai fighting-stance (The one he always do when he is about to attack someone)
Queen also put on a stance where she is holding a sniper when she is actually holding a pistol just to tease him. "Get serious"
"Ok" She said and placed the back of her hands on her waist waiting for him to attack. She was already used to this: The Phantom Troupe trying to steal her inventions, it's either she lose and they ended up getting what they wanted or they would just run away.
Queen was that powerful for she came from a family full of powerful hunters and intelligent scientists. She have an ability to control or master all of the nen categories because her mom made like a potion or something and Queen drank it thinking it was her juice and so, she became wild and fell in coma for months and when she woke up, she was able to control every category of nen.
(Her mother stopped making the potion because of the after-effects)
"You should strike first" Nobunaga suddenly stated and changed its stance into just standing. "What? Ladies first?" Queen asked. Nobunaga didn't budge nor move and remained standing.
Queen just shrugged and in a glimpse of an eye, she appeared behind him and struck his neck using her gun. A loud-thud was heard when Nobunaga's body fell down. "Did you forget that i'm a cat? I'm more faster than you think" Queen stated as she bent down.
Her family was quite crazy because of its inventions. Her great grandmother let her relatives and siblings including herself drank a potion she just made and minutes later, everyone have animal ears on their head and tails on their back. They can hine it with their Nen or just let it be. They will also have that animal's ability (the one they are presenting)
She rose up and looked around to see that they are still fighting. Shd just watched them and let it be because if she helped them, they might get disturbed and lose focus.
While in the middle of watching, she suddenly heard someone shout and she was sure it was Gon's voice. She looked back to see that Feitan was flying towards the portal she just made.
"Don't press the blue button!" Gon shouted but Feitan didn't listen and pressed it.
"Noooo!" Queen screamed as a blinding light covered their surroundings making all of them stop fighting and close her eyes. Queen repeatedly cursed under her breath. She felt herself being sucked into something and repeatedly spinning.
Seconds later, Killua opened his eyes and adjusted his vision. He looked around to see an unfamiliar scene before him before muttering: "Where are we?"
