Chapter 2

Side By Side Problem's

...Your mission is...To full-fill each-other's desire...

I wan't to collect all the lost scarlet eyes of the kuruta clan.

That is the purpose of my living.

What about you? What do you want to full-fill anyway?

...What to full-fill huh? ...What do i seek anyway...

The Key to open one-self.

Where could i find it?

Or

Do i really want it?

It's just, from the start, i just wanted to obtain...

"What where you doing on the Empty Shrine by the way?"

Kuroro Lucifer who was currently has bandages over his forehead, his bangs were down,and wearing simple clothing but all black, asked the little kuruta over his right side, who was not even bothering to look back nor answer the question of this man. Kurapika replied harshly, "What do you care about it." and glare, "It's none of your concern..."

"It is my concern." Kuroro deadpan said. And shortly after the Kuruta gave the same question. "How about you, what were you doing on the Shrine?"

"Going to Steal of course." Kuroro Lucifer was straight to his point.

"What?!" And so the exclaim came from the certain kuruta. "Even at shrine, You were still stealing?!" Kurapika shouted to the ear's of the said raven haired man. "As how much nasty could you be? You didn't even respect the shrine, instead, you were actually doing crimes!"

"Excuse me. I haven't stole anything yet, and its because of you." A pause. "If you weren't they, i could have stole most of the beauty antics inside the shrine.

"then, its a good thing i was there." the blonde head put his arms crossed over his chest. And his chest, who has now the said 'woman chest' was covered up by bandages, since his tribal cloth was torn off.

Kuroro was observing him, and said,"Don't talk like you have done nothing." Kurapika rolled his eyes,

"oh well, what did i do?" he asked sarcastically.

"Remember, you destroyed the shrine...badly shaped.."

"It's your fault, if you didn't show up, i would not do such a thing."

"Even so, you didn't respect." Kuroro said mockingly.

"argh!" Kurapika rubbed off his head with both hands, the man was so irritating. And of course, to Kuroro's side, he was secretly enjoying to annoy the blonde. The conversation had continue on endless arguments, such as mocking here mocking there, both are trying to irritate each-other, however, its Kuroro's win. Kurapika has a short temper. To mention, only to him and Leorio.

But then, later they stop to argue, or like, Kurapika was already loosing the strength to argue with him. He then later found himself staring in a daze over Kuroro's appearance. Bangs are down, wearing simple commoner clothes. He totally looks like a harmless and nice person. ...as if... He commented himself in a funny way that he has no idea why he was thinking of that.

...

However sudden, Kurapika's body just jolted, and it was coming from his stomach.

"Urgh!" Kurapika was forced to sit down because of the sudden pain.

Kuroro could only look down at the kuruta who seem having a problem. He observed with his deep blue eyes to see what exactly is the problem on the kuruta's stomach. "What's wrong?"

"Shut up." Hurriedly speak by Kurapika in a raspy voice. And said, "I just forgot to heal this wound."

"oh you mean the wound i gave you..." Kuroro thought of and slightly rolling his eyes, and told the little one. "It has poison by the way."

"I know it does."

An eyebrow goes upward in question. "You did? Then why didn't you heal it immediately, you did have a lot of chances back there." The man straighten up to his position. Still emotionless, cool, and steady. Kurapika just could only close his eyes, seething with the pain and glared to Kuroro. "Don't look, nor talk. Wait there a moment."

Kurapika order to Kuroro. Which causes the man to be more in question. what on earth would Kurapika do?

It was then he summoned his holy chain. The chain had appeared from his right hand, a good thing that his left hand was the one tied up with Kuroro. he could still use his chain freely.

The fact Kurapika told Kuroro not to look, He was actually looking. Or, peeking to see of what exactly Kurapika was doing. And he found his eyes only stand with the amusement stare. He saw how slowly and fast the wound he gave Kurapika by-Kurapika's Holy-Chain. The scratch was going back to a tiny pimple, as if like the time was going back.

"I see, so that's one of his ability. No wonder he had survive the fight with Uvogin. He must have use that ability while fighting him." Kuroro quoted and explained with no one.

The chain later vanish from Kurapika's hand after he was done healing it. He then started to stand from his feet, however, he still felt the pain. A small grunt.

"Just relax there." Kuroro ordered this time. Which made the kuruta to look dumbfounded. "Let's rest here for a while, go took your time to sit there. You look tried already."

"Don't act like you care, Bastard."

"Well, so am..." A chuckle.

The sun-set had fallen. Still they were stock over the woods.

"Look's like we can't made it to find a town." Kuroro said with no one, but who else could he be talking to, Of course, its no other than the Kuruta who on his right side in a sitting manner. He was sulking of how tired he was already. His head gone dizzy. What more, he was stressed of what should he do-he just turned into a girl.

"Your weak, i thought you were strong since you have killed one of my spiders..." Kuroro praised the kuruta with a sarcastic tone. He was looking down to the blonde, and he found the kuruta's eye glaring in a dagger towards him.

Kurapika looked away with a 'hmp!' Sound, and said, "Am not weak. And that guy was so stupid. He is only relying on his invincible strength..." Next he did was to shut his mouth for telling the taller man too much details of how he had defeated Uvogin. They both fell in silence.

As i thought... Kuroro trailed inside his mind, this kid, fight's in a fair square...

He secretly smiled. However, Kurapika had felt that-Kuroro was having the SMILE, inside him.

"Whatever your thinking, your dead." Kurapika marked that to his very stomach. And the same time-Kurapika's stomach growls in hunger. He blush in embarrassment.

"oh you are hungry." The Raven haired man said, in a way pretending to care. Though he was just saying everything coming from his mind.

But due to Kuruta's short tempered self. He replied harshly. "It's all your fault, if you didn't even show up there, i won't turn into a girl, I wouldn't have fell on that cursed pond...and..." Another death glare dagger. "I could have eaten my meal, but now it was ruin because of our fight inside the shrine..." Kurapika pouted on his own.

"You act like a girl you." Kuroro once again, deadpan.

"Shut up! Don't talk anymore, or...i'll get even more hungry!" Kurapika voiced the last word inside his mind. He just cursed. "Dammit."

Finally the midnight had come, and same time when they reached the nearest town, and the clouds became dark, as if, i rain would come soon. And that's why the first thing they do-was to look for a place to say and there they found a small good inn.

It was a lovely one, The innkeeper was a nice person, together with her daughter name Anni, heartedly-welcome them. But soon later their smile was drop down to shock from the very moment. When the girl Anni saw Kurapika's clothe's torn off which revealing the bandages he had put over, to cover up the chest not to mention he was actually wounded..If you remember the scratch given by Kuroro when they had fought.

"Oh my! Mother look!" Anni said in a surprise, as she pointed to Kurapika's bandages. There was a trailed red liquid left on it. And so her mother was shock to, she hurriedly come over near Kurapika which caused the Kuruta to froze.

"Poor little lady! What must have happen to you on the woods?" "Are you alright? We should heal you first!"

"what?!" Kurapika noted the word 'little lady'. He was about to exclaim that he was a HE for god sake, but was abrupt to stop my Kuroro's stare.

"Thank you for your kindness. However, we are fine, and SHE is fine."

Jaw drop come to the kuruta's nerves'. He was told as a SHE not a HE, but he can't do anything to say that he was a HE if not with the bumps of his chest, and looks.

"Really? are you sure you will be alright? At very least, want me to first aid you?" The Mother said, willingly to help.

"No i'm alright, please don't bother my wound, its just a small scratch." Kurapika tried to put a fake smile, "Really." He darkened his next word.

"Well then." Anni started to step in the conversation. "What room could we serve you? two bed's or -"

"One room with One big Bed please." Kuroro once again deadpan said. Inside of Kurapika's mind was all "what! what?! noway!"

However, Due to the bond that ties them up, they can't even separate at all, or at very least for 5-20cm apart. The manacle fastened on their wrists by the Goddess of Shrine,the chain bracelet-they had no choice but to huddle near the fire closely. Like a kitten and dog. Or like, a Tiger and Lion.

"Oh, but," Anni glanced over Kurapika. As from her very vision, she is a girl. And the tinngle over Anni's own ear's heated up. "Does that mean, you both are Lover's?"

"No-Nooo! Were not Lovers'!" Kurapika said hurriedly fabricated the misunderstanding, of course there's noway he could tell that they were just being bind by the Thread of fate, he can't just say it out loud that he was cursed, and what more, he would have die if someone mistaken Kuroro as his lover. Or her lover in everyone's vision. "We are..." Kurapika nervously trying to calm down, and finally said, "We are only companions on travelling..."

"Oh i'm sorry for the misunderstanding madam..." Anni shook her head to apologize.

"I-it's ok..." a crack laugh and smile from the Kuruta. Kuroro just cover his mouth, hiding the fact that he want's to laugh. Kurapika knew what the man was thinking and dragger him the famous death glare, with the absent of his scarlet eyes.

With that, the old lady went upstairs to prepare their room. They were left inside the fine room with big enough one bed on the corner. The two was left alone in silence.

Kuroro started, "Remember, your body turned into a girl...So act like one." A smirk.

Kurapika stomped his feet and said, "I am not a 'she' from the first place...!" He growled at him.

Kuroro shrugged"Really? You were..." A Pause."Well, you look like one. And you are one now...There is no differences i say." he was actually pointing during the time, that this chain-assassin have captured him, while wearing a sales Lady clothes. Now and then, indeed, the kuruta has a lot of female features than male features.

But then Kurapika retorted to fight. "Damn you."

"Why thank you."

"Bastard."

"Is that my nickname from you?"

Kurapika was already on the verge of strangling the guy to death. He wish he could, if only the bracelet chain was not getting in his way, he could have done it earlier. After all, Their hands would brush against each other from time to time, and he always flinched every time. While Kuroro did not show any reaction. He likes the way the kuruta acts like that, for his boredom, But he sometimes was getting tired of the boy's nerve-wracking flinches.

Later own, they did have a supper of midnight, thanks to the Lovely Mother and her daughter Anni. It was a good meal.

Returning back to the room, here was the problem.

"..darn it..." Kurapika silently cursed as Kuroro was just sitting on the bed, while he was under, searching something from his small bag.

"not again...what's wrong?" Kuroro bother's to ask. And shortly replied by Kurapika. "I don't have spare clothes." Then the idea came, what on earth could he do about it. "You ruined my tribal, and i need someone to sew it for me." Kurapika said in a blunt way just to say that it's his fault, he must take responsibility about.

"I can't sew, nor would i do try."

"That's not what i meant."

"Then what?"
"Pay for it."

"What?"

Kurapika reached his right hand to Kuroro since his left arm was binded to the bracelet of Kuroro's right hand. "Give me your money for i can have someone to sew it."

"Why would i? Don't you have some money with you?" Kuroro said closing his eyes to relax.

"Look." Kurapika does stand from his feet. "You don't know how hard to have these 'chest' around here. and my money is only for my expenses of food, and inn to stay. While you go for the expenses of our needs...Got that?"

"Alright, Since when we had a deal about that?" Kuroro knowingly, smile to irritate more the kuruta.

"Since the day, i was bound to team work with you." If not with the word teamwork, Kuroro wouldn't take that seriously. "...So?" he said.

"So...?" Kurapika repeated his question, "So from now on, i will take care of buying food while you take care of everything we need, and i need."

"That's not fair."

"It is fair."

"How did that happen?"

"Cause am a girl now!"

A smirk escaped from Kuroro's lips, he didn't mean to show it, or he had forgotten to cover his mouth.

"You...!"

Kuroro raised his hand's in defeat. "fine, Fine, i got it. Tomorrow morning we would buy some new clothes for you."

Kurapika put his hands on his waist. "I want my clothes sue, not to buy some NEW clothes...stupid."

"I take this as a yes about my rights."

"Since when i have given you-a right?" Kurapika noted, that he should be the one to be followed.

"Its a truce we say?" Kuroro then pulled Kurapika down the bed, he caught off the wrist of the kuruta who was done for good. Kurapika was frozed in the very moment. He turned into an ice, and like a prey been caught inside a spider web.

Kuroro continued. As his hand's touched the face of the Kuruta. "It's a pity, if you're going to face that beautiful face of yours..." Kurapika then narrowed his eyes, forgetting the fact that he was cornered.

"What the hell are you trying to say you asshole?"

"I was saying, your scarlet eyes are the best among all of your clan.." He commented with cold smile. He was being cruelly at him.

Kurapika's scarlet eyes activated in that very moment. "You Bastard—"

Kurapika tried to punch him the face of the man above his. But the raven haired man had caught Kurapika's wrist he gasped in pain and surprise. He looked up to reward Kuroro with his crimson glare, and found the man looking down at him with emotionless eyes. They were engaged in the staring competition for a while.

"You're a wild woman."

"I'm a originally guy, take note of that."

Kurapika kicked his stomach which was not expected. It didn't hurt much, but, due to surprises Kuroro was amused to it. "Take a bath, you smell stink." Kuroro told Kurapika and end up again, receiving a death glare.

"I don't smell stink, but you do." Kurapika said coldy. And hurried to the bathroom, however here is the problem. They can't separate, Kurapika felt the other's hand was being also drag the time he walked away from him.

"What the..."

Kurapika just found the man smirking. and said, "heh...we should be together inside the bathroom." Kurapika let out a disgust gasp reaction. And he said, to pay back, "You know what, sometimes...i think, Hisoka is a very bad influence on you. Or, you itself was same as that clown..."

Kuroro raised an eyebrow, he was not happy to hear that from the kid. "am not like Hisoka."

"Yes you do..." Kurapika looked over the door of bathroom and back to Kuroro. He finally said. "Just Don't peek."

Kurapika dragged along with Kuroro way through the bathroom. Its not like he really drag him, but Kuroro just let Kurapika to pull him like a bag.

After reaching the bathroom door, The problem surfaced from Kurapika. "How could i take a bath if our hand's are stick with each other, this chain bracelet resembles a police man uses whenever they are capturing a criminal!" A look to Kuroro. "Come to think of it, how did he change his clothes anyway? I didn't even notice...If i'm right, i did collapse from too much shock." He closed his eyes continuing to think.

"And then, when i woke up, he was already wearing new clothes." Kurapika take the chance to look on the chain bracelet that was linking them. "How did he manage to take off his clothes if this thing is around...You can't even remove the clothes unless he cut his own arms to remove the cloak he had earlier."

Kurapika's eyes had narrowed thin to Kuroro.

"What?" Kuroro pretend with deep voice.

"Say, how did you change clothes? There's noway you could remove your top attire for our hand's are stick to lock. You know something to remove this don't you?" Kurapika's eyes became like a beast.

"Well, i don't know either, However." Kuroro could only do eye contact with the Kuruta. "The time i was planning to change, suddenly the chain link bracelet was cut off. I actually thought i was free. But i was wrong...During the time i was done changing my attire. The chain link once again linked."

"huh?!" Kurapika goes back to thinking. "Maybe...The chain link will be only remove if i thought of removing clothes?" He swished his head left and right. "It just a feeling, but i have to try."

Kurapika then enter's the bathroom, Suddenly-what he suspect was right. The chain link was broken after he entered the bathroom space. Both of their eyes were widen, except for Kuroro who has a no-emotion-face-figure. Although he was also surprise when the bracelet chain was split.

"Great." Kurapika could only smile from his inside. Now he could take a very good bath. "Don't you dare peek as i say." He look up to the man infront of him.

Kuroro could only sighed and told him, "I have no interest on your body."

"Why thank you. I would be happy if that is real." Kurapika thanked him sarcastically. And finally he was taking a bath. However, Another BIG problem surfaced. He wasn't a girl from the start...

"How would i-wash myself?!" Kurapika's face became pale. And red, His problem being as a girl is really a waaaaay long Matter.

The morning had come. Skip the so much long night of their arguing last midnight. Kurapika heard the voice, pleasantly low and suave. "Kurapika...wake up...it's already morning..." A tug. "We still have things to do.." But He groaned in protest, despite the need of more sleep and too much fatigue. The man repeated, this time his voice was having a strong word, but the irritation wasn't there, the man just plainly want him to woke up as fast as he could.

"Wake up, or i'll harass you..." So then he snapped his heavy eyelids open.

"What?! Is that the way you wake up someone?!" He exclaimed, Kuroro just closed his eyes and open's them again. Kurapika was lost for words. Right, seeing Kuroro Lucifer above his vision through the ceiling. It was not a dream, everything was real. He sitted up and took a peek from his chest. Which he can't help but to have a sour face.

Kuroro then spoke again, assuring if he was awake. "Rise and shine. Its time for us to buy some clothes for you and start searching with your clan's eye...Kurapika."

Kurapika was too sleepy to throw some death glare, he just stare to Kuroro with sleepy eyes and sour face. "It was not a dream." Kuroro quote for him. As Kurapika let out a heavy sighed. "Great."

they left the inn shortly after buying some new clothes for Kurapika, though-He left his tribal clothes on a sewing shop, to get repair. Kurapika was currently wearing a he wears a blue tabard decorated with an yellow-colored hem and a white full-body training suit underneath. It kinda resemble his clothe's from the Hunter Exam arc. The only differences is, he is wearing double t-shirt inside, since he doesn't know how to use a bra. For he aint really a girl at all...If he was just not cursed...And so then, they started to do their journey.

"You sure have an old fashion taste." The spider said, not even thinking if the kuruta will get hurt or goes sudden burst of anger. Here he just got a cold replied. "So what if it is."

2 more minutes past for silence. He again spoke."Ive been wondering..." They are walking each by side, Kurapika was on the right while Kuroro was on the left. Their hands were apart-yet too close. Kurapika, replied with a look. A plain look with no dagger or anything suspicious. He said, "What?"

Kuroro continued after the short reply he got from him. "Why do you want your clothes to get repaired, than to buy new ones..." They keep continue to walk. Right, Kuroro has his point, however, Kurapika is so loyal to the rules of his tribe. He won't let it be destroyed. He would make it repair and repair again. He loves their style of clothing so much. And he replied for few minutes. "That's becoz, that's the last momento of my Tribe way of clothing."

"I see." Kuroro could only observed the small kuruta by his side, He doesn't show any emotion. However, he was curious. Its kinda funny that, he has some interest from the small one. He loves making fun of him. Especially that he just turned into a girl...Was really a very funny thing.

A smirk.

Kurapika notice the change from Kuroro's lips. He could feel it. The man was thinking something funny about him.

"What are you smiling at?" Kurapika dagger one death glare to the man beside him. The Man just looked away and pretend's that he was-not-thinking-anything-funny-about-a-certain-someone-who-just-turned-into-a-girl.

"I'm not thinking of anything."

"Liar."

"Am not lying."

"Spill it."

"I don't want to."

"Then you were really thinking of something!?"

"oops-"

Kurapika throw his fearsome punch to Kuroro, but it was once again been catch by the bigger one.

"How do you feel when you turned into a girl? How does it feel to have a females' body?" Kuroro asked with still no emotion face, but indeed, there was something inside. He was laughing on his very soul.

"You bastard! You surely want to meet your death aren't you?!" Kurapika still pushing forward-to continue his punch. However the man was just really strong to block his strength. Kuroro tried to touch Kurapika by his un-occupied hand's. It's just he has no idea why, but he wanted to touch the blonde locks of the Kuruta.

Kurapika immediately retorted to dodge his hands. Because of the thought that Kuroro was planning something.

The weird silence was cut off when the bracelet chain just glowed.

Kuroro removed his hand's that was holding Kurapika's right hand. Both of their attentions were gazed to the glowing bracelet.

"The bracelet is...Glowing..?" Kurapika said, on nothing particular. Its just he had react out of instinct. Kuroro Lucifer's deep dark eyes then looked over the glowing bracelet. What's going on anyway?

Suddenly it glows so bright-which Kurapika had to cover his sight by his right arm, and does the same for Kuroro's left arm.

The Goddess of Thread Fate Shiera has appeared before them.

"Kuroro, Kurapika, i have forgotten to tell something very important about the Thread i gave you and to Kurapika's curse."

To Be continued.

But anyway, despite having a female one's over his chest and his under [of course XD] ...Kuroro was really taking his time to tease every single emotion out of the kuruta. However in the center of their arguement. Shiera showed up and holds a news that would not be very good. What kind of news will Shiera would deliver?!
