"If you break the rule, my chain will pierce your heart and break it into pieces."

"State the rules."

"First, you must keep my identity as a secret. Second, return the hostages safely. Do you accept the conditions, Pakunoda?"

"Okay."

Kurapika took out another new copy of his judgement chain and placed his eyes on Kuroro, then back to Pakunoda.

"You must also decide for your leader." He faced Kuroro again.

"..."


'The calender loses a precious component

The remaining months gather to mourn...'

The hill is stranded, barren and abandoned. It was completely still with no presence of life, the only moving atop being Kuroro. Thirty feel tall, it held a gloomier surrounding than anyone who saw it in a distance would have expected it to be. The great big stretch of land was locked up and shoved in to the side, forgotten and scarred.

As he silently took in the dark hill, he noted that there was no scurrying of fluffy animals or chirping of the birds. No living being with the exception of himself- not surprising, really.

'The mourners play a melody

While the eleventh moon quietly rises...'

He started to walk the direction to East. Right now the place he was in is somehow like a desert. No trees, no plants. Hollow.

'The chrysanthemum withers and falls

To lie on the ground beside bloody scarlet eyes...'

This was not at all helping. The hill was dimly lit with no available food sources and no shelters. He needed to get out of here and search through the area for a place to spend the night at.

Wind flapped at his sides and nipped at his exposed skin as Kuroro pushed farther away from the hill. He raced at an incredible speed, almost as if his feet weren't lightly touching the gravel. The light breezes had turned into roaring winds, uncontrollable and wild. He ran directly to the first light he saw and discovered a small village.

'Good.' he thought and began to walk to the village.

Finally, he reached the front gate of the village and he felt relieved.

A second before he reached the village's entrance, he felt a weird feeling deep in his stomach. It told him to stop, to halt, to not run recklessly through the opening to the village. But he was too late, his mind only spurring into action a good three seconds later, his body moving by instinct. And then he bumped into something hard- a force that banned him from entering.

He tried to push himself in, but still no good. He was sent flying instead. Once he hit the ground, he just simply stayed there and began thinking.

'What happen? Why can't I enter?'

The moment he was about to continue his thoughts, his eyes caught something- no, someone, moving towards his direction. It was later revealed that 'that someone' has a red- coloured hair with some paintings in his face.

Hisoka?

"Yo~ Kuro-chan. What are you doing there? Sleeping? Ah.. It's not a place to sleep~"

"What about you?" Kuroro said, trying to stand up. "Didn't I told you that I cant fight you. Coming here is useless."

"Ah~it's not useless, and I didn't come here to fight. I'm here to help."

"Help?"

"You're finding an exorcise, isn't it? A nen-remover, I suppose?"

Hiding his response, Kuroro simply looked at Hisoka and his right eyebrow slightly raised, the only indication that Kuroro was listening.

"That nen-remover is inside this village?"

"...I don't know."

"Aw~ Don't be as clueless as that..~ We must try find him inside."

"We can't come in."

"What?"

"You heard me."

"Really? Then look.."

Hisoka took few steps forward and was able to enter the village.

"See?"

"How could you..." Kuroro, still no expression.

"Maybe it's true that there's someone with an exorcism power banned outsides from coming in to protect the villagers. But those who can access Nen can enter."

"..."

"So, in short. Kurorochin~ You need to stay close to me so that you can enter~"

'But you will remain supreme

Even after losing half your limbs...'

The village's streets are narrow and slanted, but the houses were tucked neatly next to each other, symmetrical and adjusted in a row. He had some litter on the pavement and messy houses with disrupted noises, but he was surprised by the view in front of his eyes. Its cleanliness was enough to shame the city's.

Both of them randomly knocked on every houses' door to find them a place to spend the night and was accept in a teenager's house.

"Ara? A visitor? Come in.."

"Thank you, would you mind if we spend a night here?"

"No problem. Ah! My name is Elena, nice to meet you. What's your name?"

"I'm Hisoka."

"Kuroro."

"Hisoka-san, Kuroro-san. Let me lead you to your room. Is it okay if both of you share the same room?"

"I don't mind." Hisoka replied quickly. Causing Kuroro to glare at him for a moment.

"That's good then! So... we're here."

Elena opened the cream-coloured door and led them in. Inside, the room seemed cavernous and dark. It was a rectangular-sized bedroom, with a massive bed grandly placed in the far right end with two bed tables, one on the right side and the other on the left. Two windows were positioned, separating by the bed. One had its curtain draped close, but the other one ahd it's draped wide open, allowing them to fully gaze out to the darkening sky with twinking tiny lights.

A wardrobe and dressing table were positioned next to each other and a floor-to-ceiling mirror showed on the opposite side. There was a walk-in closet across the bed and a regal carpet was rolled out under the bed and reached out to the middle of the bedroom.

"This is originally my mom's room... But she've left and never return anymore... Well, I can understand that.. She's this village's hero, afterall."

The last few words attracted both Kuroro and Hisoka's attention.

"Would you mind explaining to us what you just said?"

Aw, about my mother? Fine with me..."


The three of them goes out from the room, closed the door back and went downstairs to the living room.

"say it."

"Okay. So, two years ago, my mom suddenly got an extra-ordinary power. She can predict the future. I didn't really know why everyone said her as a hero, but they said that 'that power' protects the village until now."

'The power to predict the future?' Kuroro thought.

"Can you tell us where she is now?" Hisoka asked.

"E-Eh?"

"Actually we're searching for someone in this vilalge, your mother may be the right one." Kuroro continued.

"I see, then I'll draw a map for you."


"After you go out from this house, just walk straight until you found an apple tree, then all you have to do is to walk the direction to East until you reached it's end. My mom stayed there with many more of her friends, see ya! Good luck."

'I never thought that I'll find an exorcist this fast...' Kuroro thought while looking at the map he hold.

'Enjoy the interlude

Search out new allies...'

Hisoka lengthened his steps and tapped Kuroro's right shoulder. He smiled.

"Our battle will soon begun, ne Kurorochin~"

Kuroro ignored him. "We're here."

In front of them is a big house with numerous gates in each of it's side. "Where the hell is the main gate?"

"It's so crowded here, Kurorochin. Should we ask others for help?"

"I think we should."

When they were about to approach a nearby villager to ask for directions and help, a sudden sound of bell rang clearly and proudly through the air. It vibrated for a moment and then the screaming began. Everyone jogged over to a certain place that seemed most likely a gathering spot.

"Woa! It's starting!"

"Lara-sama! Lara-sama!"

The people poured through a blank-marked door, Kuroro marched over to follow and Hisoka tagged along.

As soon as everyone gathered and sat in their respective seats, the ceremony was about to begin. Kuroro was standing behind the wall trying his best so that they will not sense his presence, but they got him.

"The one standing behind the wall," she spoke. Daintily, her pointer finger slowly raising itself up and accused at Kuroro's direction. "Come out now."

Kuroro heaved a sigh and finally comes out.

"Y-You? You're in my dream last night...!" the prophet spokes.

"What?"

Lara's eyes narrowed, she backed up and spun around, heaving a pent-up sigh. "I don't care who you are, you're not from this village. Please leave."

'This woman is tough...'

"I;m finding you throughout the island...! Please accept me here..." Kuroro said with all innocently, the same personality that he had last few days ago in the Cemetary Building with Neon.

When Lara was to see through his eyes, Kuroro looked away.

"You- you got a sad past..."

'What is this woman saying?'

"But still, you're a nuisance. I wont handle you. Please leave."

'Cih...!'

"Hey, old lady.. Why won't you appreciate our effort for coming here to see you? Huh?" Hisoka revealed himself.

"What! U don't feel your presence.." She widen her eyes in surprised.

"Are you sure that you protect the village? Don't you know that even someone with Nen can enter?"

"Nen...?"

"Seems like you didn't know anything. You're not the one we're searching. Let's go, Kuroro." Hisoka looked a little annoyed.

"Wait! Are you searching for a nen-remover?"

Hisoka held his steps and immediately face backward. "What?"

"So sorry to say that my friend had left few hours ago before you arrived."

"The nen-remover is your friend?"

"In exchange, you must tell me what do you mean by 'someone with Nen can enter'?"

"Fine with me. But you must tell us everything, which means everything." Hisoka said with a smirk on his face.

'East is the direction to go

You will find one who awaits you.'


"Two years ago, I met Shino when I'm on my way home. Shino is very kind, sadly Shino didn't have any family left anymore. Shino gave me this Sapphire ring long before he left. Shino never tell me anything rather than his family, but when I asked him about his power, he said that he got an exorcism power that may remove Nen placed on one-self. Even if I didn't know what Nen is."

'Such a useful information. Which means, this chain may stay in my heart for some more time.'

"So where is that Shino?"

"That person just left for West."

-facepalm-

"Why can you know that we're searching for a nen-remover?"

"As i said before, you happened to be in my dream last night..."

"I see... Now don't tell anyone about us, since you've look into his past or I'll have to kill you, right here, right now." Hisoka said, threatening.

"I'm the one who kept promises, don't worry. Now for the exchange of my information, tell me about Nen."

"That's simple, Nen is..."


The clock displayed "6:00PM" as Kurapika numbly woke up from his long sleep. His eyes and brain took some time to adjust and he lightly touched his head, acutely aware that he had slept in Kuroro's room. His eyes rested on a familiar figure, startling himself.

"So... You're awake... How's your sleep?"

Kurapika inched backwards, trying to make his movement unnoticeable.

Kuroro was looking at Kurapika's left wrist, specifilally his fingers and thought of something...

'When you get back to West, You'll meet him. That one person that you will meet... Please let him wear this.' And Lara gave him a Red Ruby Ring.

Their eyes locked together, holding each other with what was held within the orbs of their own selves. Pinpointing the exact moment Kurapika seemed to be off guard, Kuroro swiftly moved, not breaking neither the silence nor the eye contact.

The movement shocked the kuruta, rendering him frozen, tangled up in the ruffled bed sheets as Kuroro nimbly slided in the rinG onto Kurapika's fourth finger. It further shocked, who finally regained some sense after Kuroro let out a small cough.

Kurapika struggled and was able to snatch his right arm back.

"Wh-what's this?" He tried to pull the ring off, but it cant get off. "I-It cant get off!" he tried to pull it harder.

Kuroro looked calmly at the desperate blonde, who tried to take the ring off his finer and said "a present."

Kuroro head to the window as soon as he finished his words.

'Maybe he's really 'him'.' He thought.


TBC~


A/N: I'm done! My hands are tired from writing and typing this chapter! XP I hope you like it! Ah yes! Let me tell you, Lara addressed Shino as a 'he' here right? Did you know that 'he' also can be use for female? For example: You didn't know this person is a male or female, so you jsut addressed that person as a 'he'. So~ in short, I'm just saying that Shino's gender is still unknown X) I wont reveal Shino's gender this fast~ Just wait for it!
