Pri-Chan 1410: You have no idea how glad I am that people are enjoying this story so much! XD

Although I admit it was a bit disconcerting to go from getting six reviews for each the first and the second chapters but to go to only one review for the third...

Chapter 3:

-Flashback-

"This way please," was spoken in the quite almost shy like voice of the woman navigating Sidhe to the location of the Hunter Exam's start. She had impossibly long wavy brown hair and she was dressed in clothing that had to be high class, a long flowing black skirt, fancy boots, and a deep red sweater.

Sidhe had tried making conversation with the woman but it became clear after a few stuttered statements she wasn't much of a talker. Even someone as oblivious as Sidhe could pick up on it.

The red head let out a gusty sigh as she followed the older woman along a small dirt path that cut through the vast woods. They had left the small port town Kento where they had met about a half hour ago and had been walking since. Sidhe looked around curiously, it had been years since she walked around woods this much, the last time had been in her home country NGL, so it was refreshing but she wanted to get to the exam site already!

Although she did wonder if the test would have some survival aspect to it since it was in the woods but if so she was sure she could handle it.

"We are almost there Sidhe-san," the women, Ran (that much Sidhe was able to get out of her) spoke again in her whisper-tone.

The news sent a pulse of excitement through the young girl, "Really?! Great! I can't wait to get started and finally get my license!"

The exclamation actually made the woman turn and look at her curiously, "Um, Sidhe-san your not nervous about this at all? People are known to die all the time during the test.." She looked away quickly with a guilty look, as though she felt bad for telling the girl well known news.

Sidhe just smiled and casually put her arms behind her head, "Oh don't worry I know all about all the dangers! I spent four years of my life with a Hunter after all! But I have to do this and I might as well tackle it with a positive attitude right?"

Ran smiled at the boisterous child, she was so bright and she hoped the Hunter Exam wouldn't dim that brightness. The thought wilted her smile and made her turn her head forward to look down the path.

"You said you had to do this... What do you mean exactly? There are others things you can try to accomplish. Safer things," she slightly stressed the last part which Sidhe promptly ignored.

"I made a promise that I would become a Hunter and that I would do it on my first try! I have to prove that it isn't impossible and getting a license takes me one step closer to my goal anyway so why not?"

Ran blinked in surprise, "So what is your goal?" Sidhe just laughed and flashed the older woman a wide grin before pressing a finger to her lips.

"Its a secret! All I can say is that I'm not the only one trying to accomplish this so I have to be fast!" This child confused Ran greatly yet at the same time greatly reminded her of someone..

"Your just like Rei," was softly muttered under her breath but Sidhe caught it and looked at the woman strangely.

"Who's Rei?" the blunt question surprised the brunette and she let out a startled, "Ah! You heard that? You have sharp ears!" before sighed and explaining, since it was her fault for speaking out loud after all.

"Rei is my little sister, your confidence and positivity reminds me of her," Ran explained looking at the red-head.

Sidhe hummed thoughtfully, "How old is your sister?"

"Rei is only ten years old," Ran gave a small laugh, "Only ten years old yet she's more confident then her seventeen year old sister.." she trailed off with a small frown.

"I'm sure there's a reason for how you are Ran-san and likewise with your sister," the reassurance was surprising but welcome. 'Although,' Ran considered, 'I guess I shouldn't be surprised.'

As the thought passed through her mind they had reached the end of the path which led to a huge acre of a front yard for the mansion up ahead. Words couldn't do the huge estate justice as it loomed majestically before them, colored beige and the dark brown of the wood. A large garden of colorful flowers circled around the building. The small measly dirt path they had been strolling on changed into a large fancy stone path-driveway, a few people up ahead of them were already walking up.

"Wow!" Sidhe practically yelled, it was probably one of the nicest buildings she had ever seen in her whole life.

"T-this is one of my family, the Reim's, summer homes. The first exam is being held in the basement-,"

'Oh great she went back to stuttering', Sidhe thought slightly depressed.

"-the navigator's were mostly the family's butlers but my brother and I offered to help as well," Ran murmured as she seemed to realize they had stopped moving, so she started leading the way again.

"In your basement?! How large is your basement? And this is only one of your summer homes? Your family must be loaded!" She spoke so fast Ran could barely keep up with what words the girl uttered.

"Um, yes the basement is large enough for what the first examiner had in mind; my family actually has three more summer homes like this... It can be pretty shocking for those who meet the Reim's family.." she fidgeted with her hands as she trailed off.

Sidhe calmed herself down after seeing how uncomfortable talking about her family's wealth made Ran. Instead she tried to think of what kind of exam could possibly be held in a basement.

They had reached the large steps leading to the front door but to Sidhe's surprise Ran didn't take that way instead gestured to Sidhe to follow her as she led her around one of the flower gardens to a much simpler door. It wasn't locked and after entering they found themselves in a rather bland hallway which didn't have any kind of decoration, was it moved so the examinees could walk through here and they wouldn't have to worry about anything being stolen or ruined? Not that this family couldn't replace anything.

Ran was walking more quickly now and her facial expression was grim, which encouraged Sidhe to follow quietly without voicing anymore questions. As they exited the hallway they reached a large, again bland, room. This room however had large intricately designed wooden doors and next to the door stood a rather large intimidating mad in and black suit, while next to him was a small man with a curious green head.

As Sidhe and Ran walked up to the two men, the man with the green head gave the younger girl a badge with a number on it, 178. The larger man reached out and opened the door and as Sidhe took a deep breath and prepared to walk through she heard a softly spoken, "Good luck Sidhe-chan," but when Sidhe turned her head to look she only caught a glimpse of brown hair as Ran took the same long hallway out.

It put a smile on her face as turned back and walked through the door and down the stairs to the first real step to accomplishing her dreams.

'Just wait Katsu!' Sidhe internally declared, 'I'm gonna prove to you that anything is possible if your willing to fight for it.'

-Flashback End-

The woman came barreling down the stairs like a bat of of hell, shocking everyone in the room but none more then Sidhe who turned her green eyes towards the stairs only to be shocked seeing a screaming, blood covered Ran running down towards them.

"Wha-What the hell?" She exclaimed as she stood from the exorcize position she had been in, ignoring all the other confused people around her, and the examiner yelling for everyone to calm down.

"Ran!"

A/N: Soooo yeah haha not really anything new but you get to find out a bit more about Sidhe and who the mysterious woman from last chapter was. Oh and more of an idea about there they all are. Tell me what you guys think please!
