Final Chapter of Arc Two! This next one will be around I think four to six chapters. Then arc four will start.
Warning: There can be some confusion in this. I do explain what I am talking about in the chapter.
One last thing. Towards the end of the chapter, there are words in bold that are in the story. What they are, are words from memories. Everything else written that's by it, is what is happening at the time.
Enjoy the last one. :)
Chapter 10 EnteringXImageXChoice
"I'm going to have to go in. If he's right, I can't stop for anything," he said out loud. The maid had been watching him through the eye hole. "I think it was Ren that we used." The aura became larger around his hands and he disappeared.
The maid fell back, shocked in surprised, and rubbed her eyes. She looked back in and he still wasn't there. "I'm seeing things. My mind must be messed up." She left the hallway, and went down the stairs.
Gon appeared this time in the spot he was when he left.
"Where would he go?" Gon wondered as he stared at the enviroment around him. Then he saw a figure laying on the ground. "Is that...?" Then he walked up to the figure. "Ki...ll...ua?" he mumbled. He was just laying there. But why didn't Kei just move him?
There was an answer.
'I...can't faint. If I do, I will forget the past, and Gon won't understand.' His thoughts were still going, but he had trouble remembering them because he was unconsious. 'I lost. She somehow beat me. Gon...its all up to you now.' Kei placed her hand on his head. His memories of the past two years slowly went away.
She lifted her hand up, and walked away. "I'll just leave you there. Now since you won't remember me, it won't matter if you wake up, or if Gon comes back." She laughed silently to herself. "But I hope Gon doesn't come back in. Everything will be much easier without him." She was glad, but annoyed. She expected Gon to return, but without Killua's memories, the story she pictured would happen.
(The future) "Where would he go?"
She laughed silently to herself. "Now I just need to watch, and if something happens, I will stop it." But how? She couldn't seperate them yet. Not until they're alone.
(The Future Again.) "Where am I?" When Killua woke up, he didn't understand what had happened. He didn't understand that he was in a game. "Last thing I remember, we were going to the auction, and somehow I appeared here? Did I get knocked out, or do I not remember?" Both.
(Back to the past.) "Ki...ll...ua?" He was mumbling the word slowly. It continued to ring in his head.
The past and future kept going. Memories. Lies. Thoughts. Words.
(Present time.) "Killua?" He watched his friend lay there. But he didn't know what happened to him. But soon Killua did wake up.
The answer was given, but none of them knew, except for Kei, who wasn't going to say anything.
"Where am I?" He looked around. "Last thing I remember, we were going to the auction, and somehow I appeared here? Did I get knocked out, or do I not remember?" An image came in his head. "Who's this?" He was getting a picture in his head about Kei, but he didn't know who she was anymore. That was a clue to what happened to him, but he didn't know. And now no one would know.
"Killua!" Gon yelled out of nowhere. He ran up to him.
"Gon?" He turned to him. "I don't get why I am here? Why are you here? I don't remember ever coming here." Then Gon believed the message.
"Tell me the last thing you remember." Then he would definitely believe the message.
"The auction. That's all I remember last. I don't even remember coming here." That got Gon. Now he believed it.
"Then you don't remember-" He stopped. If the auction was the last thing Killua remembered, then whatever he was going to say, he wouldn't remember.
"Remember what?"
"Uh..." He was speechless for a moment. "Nothing." He laughed nervously. Killua just looked at him suspiciously.
'I knew he would come.' Kei was watching them from a building. She hid behind a curtain, and sat low enough, only her head was noticeable. But it was a shadow, so no one would be able to tell if it was her. 'I better find a way to get him away.'
Killua turned his head to the right. He saw Kei's shadow, but he didn't know it was her. He didn't even know who she was anymore. "Huh. Who's that?" He pointed at the curtain.
Gon turned his head, but he only got a glimpse of her shadow because she quickly hid as he turned his head. "I saw something, but it disappeared."
"I want to check. I don't like the feeling of whatever that was. And they're watching us."
"I'll go. And don't follow me because only one of us should go in." Gon walked towards the building. It was the hospital he had been in before. But from the outside it looked like it, but Kei changed the inside, so it would be harder to find her.
"Wait!" Killua tried to get up. "Shouldn't I-" He felt pain in his chest before he could finish his sentence. "Why does it hurt-" He saw blood on his hand. "What's this? How come I have...?" He then noticed blood on his shirt. It was in the spot where he was stabbed. Then he noticed the cut in his chest. "When did I...?" He couldn't speak very much. He couldn't finish his sentences because he was so confused. "What happened to...?"
'So he just found out. Well he won't know now because his memory is lost, and Gon is now trapped inside here. Once he entered, the door changed and now he will have to find another way out.' She laughed hard, but no one heard her. 'He won't even be able to move because of what is going to happen to him.'
Gon entered through the door. The inside looked different than the hospital, and once he closed the door, it changed and he didn't even know. He walked down a path, and then entered the first room where the stairs were, but they were hidden.
"What's this?" he wondered. A girl appeared. "Is that?" He looked ahead. "Its Kei?! But there's someone else there." He saw himself standing, looking in the direction away from himself. Then he saw Killua walking away. "Why am I here?"
"Its not your fault." He heard Kei talking. "I'm sorry."
"This is from that dream, when it came true. I am imagining things. I must be because there can't be a second of me. But why do I see myself right here, and able to think about this?" It wasn't an image. His mind wasn't getting messed up. Kei made it so he thought that was happening, but it was happening in real life instead of inside his head. (This is her third ability. There won't be more than three and they will be explained later on.)
"This should help me with my plan," Kei spoke again, and she grabbed a knife.
"Why does she...? I don't remember her ever having one."
"Getting out of the game?" He heard himself speak. The words were going through his head over and over again. Why was he remembering this? The last thing he remembered was Killua leaving. That was when it stopped.
"Uh, yeah," she lied.
"But why does she have that?" He was getting confused. All of this was too confusing for him. It didn't make sense, unless he knew what happened.
Gon turned and he saw his own face before he was stabbed.
"This is going to be important...for this." Then she stabbed him.
His chest hurt again. Why was his also hurting? It should have just been the one by Kei, but somehow it got him too.
But the good thing was that his chest only hurt, and no blood came out. He just felt the pain from before.
"Did this really happen to me? I don't understand why this is happening when I don't even remember anything about this." He fell to the ground, and lifted his head up. "Are you really like this, or is my mind getting messed up. Killua was probably right about you, but I don't know if this is true."
'Hehe. He's getting confused. This is all working out right. He keeps running into my traps. Its good, and now because of it, the next few ones, he might not leave, or figure anything out," Kei thought as she watched him. She planned everything out, and predicted it right.
His eyes closed for a second, and then they opened and the area around him changed in that second.
"A bed?"
Killua walked in. His eyes filled with tears. "Gon you dummy. I knew this would happen to you. Why didn't you listen to me?"
"Killua? Why is he here. And why am I here too?" Then he noticed something. "This is the...hospital room. But I thought Killua already left. But it was after Kei left when I woke up." His brain started to hurt. It was too confusing.
Killua fell to the ground and banged his hands. "I know you're right sometimes, but this was something that I knew would happen. I didn't want to trust her. That's why I wanted you to stay away. I could tell she was lying when she said she wanted to help."
"What is he talking...about? And when did he come? I thought he was outside during this time. When did he even show up?"
Killua cried harder. "I shouldn't have left you. I knew you didn't mean it, but I couldn't get myself to stop. I'm sorry! It's my fault you're like this."
"Did he mean when he left when I told him to?"
"If I stayed, she wouldn't have done this. She knew I would get in the way, but she actually got me to leave."
"It was my fault. But you can't hear me because this isn't real." Which he thought. He still thought this was a daydream or he had fallen asleep or something.
"Its all my fault. I'm sorry."
"Its not. Don't blame yourself. Its not your fault. I was the one that made you leave, and now you can't remember anything.
Footsteps came. Killua ran to the closest.
'So he did come. But I checked the closest and no one was there. Unless he snuck out in time, or hid inside the darkness.' She was watching everything. She didn't know Killua was there. Now she knew because this did happen. 'But since he was asleep, he shouldn't remember this.'
Kei walked in. Gon suddenly woke up.
"Huh. Where am I?"
"Oh, you're awake."
"I remember this, but how am I seeing Killua when I was asleep." How was he able to see him? Well Kei programed this to see what was happening during that time. She didn't know this happened, so now she knew something important.
"Gon did you hear me?"
"What? I mean...yes...but I don't really—"
"I know what you are going to say. Don't worry. But be careful about your condition."
"What condit—" His eyes widened and he felt sick. But it wasn't just the one from the memory. The real Gon also felt sick. It was similar to when he was stabbed, and he felt it too.
"This doesn't make any sense. How come this is happening to me again? It shouldn't be."
"What happened to me?"
"Its something you shouldn't know. Killua's worse."
"Wait...Killua's here? Bring me to him."
"You can't. And you may be wondering why, but I can't tell you. He told me not to."
"But what did she mean by 'he'? She never told me who it was that told her."
"Who told you not to?"
"I'm sorry." Then she left without saying another word.
Gon tried to get up, but couldn't. He was in pain. Both of them were. It was like whatever he felt like before, came back then.
"I have to find out." He got off, and started walking out the room. He walked down the hall, and then Kei came in.
"So she didn't go outside at first. But how did she beat me out?"
Kei checked the closest, but she closed it, and jumped out the window. Then Killua came out and began to speak.
"I can't let her get to him." Then he jumped out the window.
His eyes closed again. Once they opened, he saw Killua sending the note.
'So that's how he knew. I didn't even know he sent the note to Gon.' Kei continued watching.
Gon watched Kei stab Killua, and watched her take his memories away. He even heard her say that she took Gon's memory away, and that she was able to take memories away. He also heard that she took away two years of his memory. Now he new why Killua only remembered up to the auction. Everything Greed Island and up was gone. He finally figured it out. He knew everything now.
Okay, I'm thinking that you got confused. The bold above this review is what they were saying in the past. Every other word was either Gon talking to himself about the past, or Kei's thoughts. This still may be confusing, but it was hard to write it so you wouldn't be confused. I at least hope you enjoyed it.
This is the end of arc two. Arc three will be called Truths and Dares. Be prepared for it, but its not the last arc just so you know. My profile will tell you how many arcs there will be because I finally figured out when it ends.
Reviews will be gladly excepted anytime, and I love getting some. (except rude ones)
