Chapter 7: The trick tower
~Mituki's P.O.V.~
Someone patted me on the head and I woke up. Killua smiled at me and helped me up. "We're here."
I blushed remembering about last night and I started walking with him behind. "Ne, Killua..."
"Hmmm?"
"D-Don't tell anyone about last night!"
"Ok. Ok. I won't tell anyone."
"Thanks."
We arrived at the door to the airship and stepped out to see the others already waiting on top of a very tall building.
"You have 72 hours to get to the bottom of this tower, good luck." The airship left and we stood there watching it. There was only stone on the floor and the walls were very steep.
"Well it's impossible to climb down the wall." Kurapika said earning noddes in agreement from me and Gon.
"Maybe for someone else but I'm a professional climber!" A man said. He started climbing down the walls proving Kurapika wrong but a big bird flew in and ate the man.
"Once again, it's impossible to climb down the walls." I said and the others agreed.
After hours of just roaming the platform I gave up, sat down, but then noticed something. 'There are fewer people than before!'
"Oi! Kurapika! Leorio! Mitsuki! Come here."
We all came over to where Killua and Gon were squatting they pushed slightly on the stone in front of them and it moved downwards and when they put their hands up the stone came back up. "A man accidentally walked onto one and fell through, when we checked to see if we reuse door the stone wouldn't budge." Gon explained.
"There are 6 that we found, this one and 5 others nearby. Only one person can fit in each." Killua finished. they showed us where the secret doors were. We each stood on the edge of one of the stones.
"No hard feelings if someone doesn't make it?"
"Nope."
"Good luck to everyone!"
"See you at the bottom of the tower!"
We all stepped onto a stone and fell through. When I opened my eyes I was surprised to see we were all in the same room.
"Well, that was a short goodbye." I snickered.
We stood up and walked to this altar thing and saw there were 6 watches. We each took one and looked at the last one.
Leorio sighed, "We need to wait for someone else to come."
~Later~
After a few hours of nothing Leorio got aggravated, "WHAT IDIOT WOULD STILL BE UP THERE?!"
As soon as he said that a man fell through the ceiling, "Him." I said bluntly.
"Oh you again! Do you have some more of that juice? I'm actually thirsty this time!" I said tauntingly at Tonpa.
He narrowed his eyes at me as I laughed, Killua raised his eyebrow at me, "So what happened?"
"He offered me juice but before I drank it I knew he tampered with it so I put it all in my mouth and spit it out on him."
Killua and Gon laughed and Kurapika tried his hardest to stay the mature one but couldn't help but laugh a little. It seemed to lighten Leorio's mood but he was still grumpy as he tossed the watch to Tonpa. This route was the majority rules route, there will be questions deciding on where to go and whatnot and we press x or o for different options. Tonpa usually did things to piss off Leorio but we managed to make it to it to a hallway we walked down without too much arguing. At the end was a big room with no floor and just an endless hole, but in the middle of the room was a big platform lit with torches. On the way other side of us was another short hallway with 6 hooded figures in cuffs. A man over the intercom started explaining rules.
"RULES:
1) No weapons
2) You and your enemy decide how to battle
3) You can kill
Extra information: These people are in jail for lots of years. They're job is to take as much time as they can because then they're time in jail will go up to avoid execution."
"Who's going first?" Leorio asked.
"I will."
Everyone was surprised when Tonpa said that.
"Really?"
"Yeah, think of me as a guinea pig."
"Wow I guess I was wrong about you." Leorio admitted.
A bridge extended from the hallway to the platform as he walked to it. A guy stood up and the cuffs fell. He took off his hood to show a muscular man. He walked cowards and they decided to fight until one gave up. As soon as the match began Tonpa gave up. We all stood there dumbfounded.
As he walked back Leorio was really mad and grabbed Tonpa's cuff, but Killua made a point, "It's good that he gave up because then he," Killua pointed to Tonpa's opponent, "would have crushed Tonpa's throat so he can't surrender until time runs out."
Tonpa's enemy smiled, "I was figured out."
Leorio let got of Tonpa's cuff and Tonpa smirked. Next was Gon. A tall figure stood and the cuffs fell and he took off his hood.
"As you can see I'm not good at fighting."
"I'm not fond of fighting either."
"So let's do this instead, we lift a candle and whoevers candle goes out first loses. Now which do you want? The long one or the short one?"
"He probably expects us to get the long one so he probably tampered with the long one."
"But he could have expected us to do that or the other way around, we can go on and on about this, how about we let Gon decide."
"Gon you can decide!"
"I can decide? Then I choose the long one!"
"Did he really..."
"Because since it's longer it will burn longer."
"That's his instincts?" Killua asked and we all sweatdropped.
The man who was sitting flipped his hair that was covering his eye, he reached be behind him and pulled out a candle which he tossed to Gon and then he got a shorter one for himself. They walked over to the torches on opposite sides. They lit the candle but as soon as Gon did that there was a large fame that melted Gons candle fast while the man's candle stayed calm and small.
"So the long one was tampered with!"
"Actually even if you chose the small one this would happen." The man smiled, but Gon smiled wider, he had an idea.
He set down the candle, "If it's a big flame..." He straightened up, "a small breeze won't blow it out!" He ran as fast as he could, which was very fast, up to the man, the man was so surprised he didn't move.
Gon blew out his candle, "I won!"
We started cheering while the man slumped down on his way to his side. Next was Kurapika, a bulky man walked to the stage. He removed his hood, he was blue... And really messed up looking. He had 19 hearts tattoos to his chest. But Kurapika didn't look fazed at all. The man spoke, "We are doing a death match."
"Ok." Kurapika said casually.
"I've killed 19 people, you're going to be my 20th!"
He jumped up and smashed his first in the floor next to Kurapika, creating a gigantic crater in the ground. As he was walking back his back had a large black spider with 6 legs on each side. I saw Kurapika's eyes turn red as he clenched his fists.
"Woah! His eyes are so pretty!"
"Have you ever seen your eyes when their gold?" Gon looked up at me.
"Yeah."
"It's just as pretty!"
I smiled at Gon, 'I wonder if he would say the same thing if he knew I was a monster.' Kurapika stood there with his eyes red, suddenly he ran up to the man, flung him in the air, and punched him hard in the face to the floor.
"First of all, if you were a true member of the Phantom Troupe you would have a number on your spider, second of all, Troupe members don't bother counting all the people they've killed, and third of all," Kurapika looked down at the man in a scary way with his eyes glowing brightly, "If you mention the troupe again I'll kill you."
"What's wrong with the phantom troupe?" I whispered to Gon and Killua.
"His clan was murdered by the phantom troupe and their eyes were taken out because of their colors." Leorio came in and told us, "His goal is to find all the eyes of his clan."
We all nodded and stopped talking as Kurapika made his way to the bridge. He walked over to us with his bangs hiding half his face but I could still see a red glow. "Is it safe for us to be around you?"
Kurapika was silent, "I don't know, I knew he was a fake but really I react to any spider I see."
Gon leaned over to Leorio, "We should keep Kurapika away from spiders."
"Yeah... Well I'm up!"
"Wait, his match still didn't end, he isn't dead and he didn't surrender." A voice called from the other side.
Leorio sighed, "Kurapika, finish him off."
"I refuse."
"WHAT?!"
"I no longer have a reason to fight him."
"YOU'RE BEING SELFISH KURAPIKA!"
"Leorio!" Everyone turned to me, "STOP BEING ANNOYING!"
"What did you say you brat?"
"I just needed to get that out."
Kurapika sat there quietly while me and Leorio argued. After getting tired from arguing I stopped and sat next to Kurapika.
"Are you ok?"
He nodded his head slightly. I gave him a hug which shocked him and his head jerked up.
~Killua's P.O.V.~
She hugged Kurapika who was still slumped against the wall and his head jerked up. He smiled a little and hugged her back.
"Thanks."
After they hugged for a few minutes, we were all just waiting for them to separate.
"Ummm... Mitsuki?"
*silence*
I went over to them and looked at her face, "She fell asleep!"
We all laughed and Kurapika opened his arms, "Can someone take her?"
Everyone looked at each other, "Killua you do it!"
I blushed, "Why?"
"You could use the experience!"
"Huh?! What's the suppose to mean?!"
"Someone just take her!"
I sighed and went over to Kurapika and picked her up then set her down in the corner and leaned her against the wall.
I walked back over to them, "I don't see why she couldn't just stay there."
"IT WAS WEIRD TO HAVE A GIRL SLEEPING ON ME!"
I laughed, "All this commotion and she's still sleeping!"
After we got bored of waiting, me and Gon were daring each other to do things and not wake up Mitsuki. Like pull out a hair or blow on her face and stuff. We didn't even notice when Leorio proved the man was in fact conscious and all that stuff, we only noticed when we heard Kurapika sigh and walk over to us.
"Someone talk to Leorio, him and his opponent are doing bets and his opponent is a girl, they're going to bet on gender."
"Oh gosh, is he going to..." I asked already knowing the answer.
Kurapika nodded as I got up and Gon followed..
"What's wrong Killua?"
I looked at him, "Leorio's going to bet male and then he gets to... You know, check her to see if she's lying or not."
"Who would want to do that? It's pointless!"
"Unless you're a pervert like him." I pointed at Leorio and Gon looked at him. "Oi! Leorio! Don't you dare do anything else stupid! And don't even try to..."
"I BET 20 HOURS ON MALE!"
"Perverted old man."
Me, Gon, and Kurapika looked away before the undressing of a women began. We also forced Tonpa to look away.
"Great we just lost 20 hours!" I said angrily.
After they were done we turned around and they decided to settle the fight with Rock Paper Scissors which Leorio sucked at and lost. Next was my turn.
The man removed his hood and Leorio gasped, "Killua don't fight this guy! He's a famous murderer who crushed random people with his bare hands!"
I ignored him and walked to the platform. "Is he even listening to me?"
"Don't worry! Killua's a former pro assassin."
"ASSASSIN?!"
"Yup."
"So how do you want to settle this?"
"Of course a fight to the death. I'll crush you and..."
I walked towards him and ripped out his heart putting it in a bag swiftly. The man turned around, "That's mine! Give it back!"
He fell on the ground and I put the bag in his hand.
"Oi you! You didn't get a lot of time, want to fight me?" I asked the man who fought Tonpa.
"N-No."
"Ok." I went over to the hallway and woke up Mitsuki. "It's your turn, I won but Leorio lost."
"I fell asleep?"
"Yup while you were hugging Kurapika. It was hilarious!" She rubbed her eyes and I blushed, 'she's so cute when she does that!' I stood up and walked to the edge of the hallway and she stretched then walked to the platform.
A figure stood up and walked over. She giggled and took off her hood and the cuffs fell. Her hair was light blue and in pigtails. She looked like Mitsuki to be honest. She had a small dress on and she skipped over to the platform.
"Ne, sis!" I saw Mitsuki freeze at her words. "Let's have a fight to the death!"
Mitsuki looked pale as she slowly agreed.
"Ok then!"
She ran around Mitsuki really fast.
"I can't even see her!" Gon said leaning over the edge to look.
I looked at Mitsuki who was doing her best to dodge attacks but kneeled to the floor when one hit her side. She got back up but was hit back down.
The girl randomly stopped and looked at Mitsuki, "You're holding back! That's no fun." The girl smiled a creepy smile, "Whatever! I'll have more fun ripping you to shreds."
Mitsuki smiled and spat blood out of her mouth. She stood up strait and laughed. The little girl looked a little confused.
"At first you reminded me of Isabel." Mitsuki smiled creepily overpowering the girls smile. "But your nothing like her."
Mitsuki's eyes turned gold as she jumped at the side. She immediately was brought to the side and started running on the walls at stop speed, and jumped around trying to hit the girl. At some point the girl caught Mitsuki's leg and threw her up toward to ceiling. They were both moving around a lot at fast paces, I was surprised they weren't winded, but there was one thing that's caught my eye, Mitsuki's sweatshirt was soaked in red.
"Oi, guys look at Mitsuki's sweatshirt!"
~Mitsuki's P.O.V.~
'Shit! I'm moved around too much, the knife wound reopened.' Blood was starting to seep through my sweatshirt and I was getting dizzy. 'I have to finish this quickly.'
As soon as she stopped to take her breath I grabbed her hair and yanked it up making her scream and she was flung up. I was still holding her hair and I yanked it down slightly then grabbed her neck and slammed it down with a enough force to crush her head. After confirming she was dead I stood up and held my head. I was really dizzy now and could barely stand.
"Mitsuki stay there, you're in no condition to move, I'll come get you." Killua yelled to me.
"No, I'm alright." I started walking only to fall onto my hands and knees.
Killua ran over the bridge to me, "Baka! What did I just say?! Stop moving!"
"Eh? Killua? What's wrong?"
"Stop talking too!" He picked me up and walked slowly to the other hallway into a room.
"Take off her sweatshirt." Leorio ordered. Killua put me down in a room on a somewhat couch and took off my sweatshirt.
"What is this? What happened?" Kurapika said shocked.
'They must've seen the stitches.'
"Is Mitsuki going to live?" Gon asked.
I opened my eyes but everything was blurry and I had an immediate headache. After a few minutes I passed out.
