This might be a little odd, but I wanted to try it. Since we are transitioning to a new arc, I figured I would make a transitioning chapter, sort of. So it's shorter than a normal chapter. It just transitions the arcs. It'll just state information that I don't really want to include in the chapter. I probably won't do this for every arc, but here we go. If you don't like the idea, please tell me! Hopefully you will enjoy.

••• Heavens Arena •••

"The line is super long!" Gon whines as we wait to register.

"Unlike the Exam, there aren't any conditions for Heavens Arena. You just have to win," Killua tells him.

"By the way, you have to enter your name to register. What's your last name?" he asks me.

I write it out on the wall with my finger.

"...Er, do it again. Gon, help me figure this out."

"Ha..."

"Wait, do it again!"

"Haya?"

"Hayashi?"

I nod. Interesting how I technically only have a last name.

"Shizuka Hayashi, Hayashi Shizuka. Has a nice ring to it, don't you think, Gon?"

They end up talking about it until we get to the desk to register. It is different, writing Shizuka on the paper, like it is official now. It makes me kind of happy.

We walk to the stadium and sit down on the bleachers. The fights are interesting to watch.

My number is 2056. It will be my new companion for the time being.

Gon is called up to fight. Killua tells him something before he goes on, which I do not understand. Something about a 'Testing Gate'.

Gon defeats his opponent with a single push. He is quite strong.

It is Killua's turn. Unlike Gon's, his opponent is more slender and muscular. He defeats him easily with a single chop.

I do not believe that I will be able to defeat my opponent with a single anything.

Once in the ring, I hear vulgar comments.

"Look at that little girl, thinking she can defeat Suo!"

"Snap her neck, Suo!"

My opponent, apparently 'Suo', is a well-built man. He has a nasty grin. You can see the pervert in his eyes.

"I'll enjoy this," he hisses. Gross. The only thing he is doing is making me mad.

What do I do, though?

I walk closer to him. Perhaps I should just try something...

"That was so cool, Shizuka-chan!" Gon keeps saying.

"It was just a kick, Gon. Calm down," Killua adds, yawning.

"But she sent him flying! Right through the wall!" Gon continues, overly excited. I do not understand.

I honestly did not think my attack would be that strong. So a kick to the stomach is all it takes?

"But did you see it, Killua? He coughed up blood, too!" Gon acknowledges. I stop.

What?

"What's wrong, Shizuka?" Killua asks.

I sigh. It is just a little blood. Probably.

Besides us, there was also another young person fighting. I do not remember his name.

I tune out the lady in the elevator. Boring.

"I heard that when you get to the 100's, you get your own room!"

We turn around. Speak of the devil.

"My name is Zushi."

•••

I think this will help me a bunch. Tell me if it's cool or not.

By the way, I'm about to get to the point where romance blossoms. Mwahaha. I know you've been waiting for it.

Thank you for reading, reviewing, favoriting and following! It means a lot!
