"LAYLA WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RESTAURANT? IT'S ALL DARK AND SCARY! AND THERE'S LOTS OF CREEPY PEOPLE STARING AT U-mmffphmmuffmoowiffhmphuu!" Killua had jumped onto the table and covered Shanii's mouth in his hand. He hissed:
"This is the hunter exam site stupid. And don't shout in front of all of these people. If you let them know how stupid you are you'll be considered an easy target."
"This is the exam site? It's a bit dark don't you think? And where are the desks and chairs? They can't expect us to answer the paper in such poor conditions!" Bella huffed in disbelief. "Honestly, what are they thinking! To be a hunter is considered an important profession isn't it? Layla what's your theory?
Layla?
Layla?"
.
Layla lay on the ground, purple-faced and unmoving.
.
"OH MY GOD I'VE KILLED LAYLA!"
.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO LAYLAAAAAAAA! COME BACK TO US LAYLA COME BACK!" Shanii screamed, accidentally biting Killua's hand as she did so.
"OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE! I'M SO SORRY LAYLA I DIDN'T MEAN TO KILL YOU! COME BACK TO LIFE AND YOU CAN HAVE AS MANY TURKEY SANDWICHES AS YOU WANT!" Bella begged her dead friend.
.
...Layla still lay on the ground, purple-faced and unmoving...
.
.
"Welcome to the hunter exam! Please take these number tags and remove the dead body from the elevator." A short green thing wearing a suit handed Killua and the two living girls each a tag and walked off.
.
'Of the three idiots I expected her to be the least likely to die... And the hunter exam hasn't even started yet...' Killua thought as he pinned a tag with the number ninety-nine on his shirt. 'I guess the other two have no chance then... Boring! I'm off.' He walked out of the elevator and left the two girls. 'I can't believe I actually held a small hope for them... But without the scary one they're useless' He didn't even look back at them as he left.
.
Bella and Shanii didn't even notice his absence as they were too preoccupied with trying to bring Layla back to life.
"I know! We need to kiss her!"
"You mean mouth to mouth?"
"What's that?"
"..."
.
After much debate they decided that they should first and foremost follow the little green thing's instructions and get her out of the elevator.
.
"She's really light!"
"Yeah she is! I would have thought that someone who lazes around all day would be a lot heavier!"
"Layla once told me that using your brain burns lots of calories, so she doesn't need to do exercise but that I probably should. What do you think she meant by that Bella?"
Bella didn't have the heart to tell her.
.
.
"So what should we do now Bella?"
"I don't know..."
"I wish Layla was here! (sob)"
"She was the one that we would always turn to in moments of crisis... Stupid Layla, why did you have to die!" Bella kicked her dead friend and started to cry. Then she remembered something very annoying yet very important.
.
"MIBRA!"
.
.
Killua looked back at the two-thirds-living/one-third-dead idiot trio, drinking some lovely laxative filled juice, feeling something that could quite possibly have been guilt gnawing at him - much to his annoyance.
'Maybe I should go see how they're doing... Not because I care about them or anything- I'm just curious.'
.
"My bra!" He heard Bella shout. "How could we have forgotten about my bra!"
"You mean that bra? Oh yeah that bra could bring Layla back to life!"
.
All of the hunter examinees looked at the girls with puzzled (and some pervy) faces and Killua decided that maybe it would be best not to be associated with the crazy girls. 'I wouldn't say that they're doing okay... After all they seem to think that Bella's bra could bring Layla back to life, but if I'm seen with them that could cause problems for me, so...' he stayed where he was.
.
.
"You mean Tha'Bra? Oh yeah Tha'Bra could bring Layla back to life!" Shanii squealed with excitement. "So where is it?"
"..."
"Don't tell me you've-"
"I'VE FORGOTTEN MIBRA!" Bella screeched, pulling her hair out in despair. Not noticing the creepy pervy looks that she was getting by some of the male examinees. The few female examinees there were simply stared at her in horror. 'How could she forget to wear her bra? A bra is one of a girl's most important possessions! A good bra does not only flatter your appearance, but it's good for you posture too!' They thought.
.
.
"NOOOOOOO! WHAT DO WE DOOOOOOOO?" Shanii fell to her knees dramatically. Then a book fell through the ceiling and hit her head. She picked it up and read the title:
'An inventive study on the tree of intergalactic travel'
"Nope, this isn't Tha'Bra" She threw the book over her shoulder.
Bella picked the book up from where Shanii had thrown it and read the title for herself. 'I didn't realise Shanii was that bad at reading' she thought. 'how on earth did she read 'interdimensional' as 'intergalactic'?'
She braced herself for the coming onslaught of stupid and opened the book to a free page.
.
.
Hello Bella and Shanii!
Layla is dead is she!
That is a shame!
She was my favourite you see!
No offence!
But more importantly- you forgot about me!
That made me very sad! :(
Boohoohoo!
From now on Bella must keep me with her at all times!
Then you won't forget about me!
Falling through the ceiling is a very tricky business you see!
.
.
"Mibra, can't you bring Layla back to life?" Bella asked.
'PLEEEEEEEASE!" Shanii begged.
.
.
You want to bring Layla back to life?
I want her back too!
She made things far more entertaining!
:(
To bring Layla back to life...
It is possible! I think!
But I cannot do it alone!
Both of you will have to help me!
.
"Yes of course! We'll do anything!"
.
Okay!
Here is what we must do!
But first!
I will tell you this!
She will never be able to be brought back to life again!
Ever!
And neither will you two!
:D
..
.
How will they bring Layla back to life I wonder?
