Hanabi Mirei owns nothing of Hunter x Hunter.
She only owns the plot and her OC.
Enjoy! XD
A Not So Dream Come True
CHAPTER 10
"Time's up! You may rest, Nagisa," the old man nods.
"Thank... you..." my body falls to the floor in exhaustion.
"What? That's it?" Illumi look at me with a hint of disappointment.
Zeno narrows his eyes at his grandson, "It's enough for a day, Illumi. She's developing her skills very well each day. She needs rest,"
"Ee... What a bore." the long black haired boy whines like a child.
Tch!
Enough with the insults please!
'Hello? Normal human here in front of you!' I roll my eyes mentally.
I grudgingly sit up to face the Zoldycks in front of me. I hang my head to the side, resting my aching body and pulsing nerves.
'It's getting harder to keep up with training everyday... Illumi is not being considerate about my well-being at all...' I bite my bottom lip to prevent a pained sound from leaking out.
As I thought.
Training with Illumi is like training with Satan himself.
It has been months ago since Zeno told me his plans for me. Things are going according to his plan. I hate to admit it, but I do need the training if I am going to the Hunter Exam and follow the rest of the story until who knows when.
'Going to the Hunter Exam... How the heck can I do that when I'm stuck with this-' my thoughts are interrupted.
"Go back to your room and sleep. Practice will be at 6 in the morning. Don't be late." Zeno turns to talk to me.
I nod my head, too tired to speak or to move. My body sprawl across the floor for awhile, before I push myself into walking to my room. My muscles are screaming for me to stop moving, while my brain continues to urge me into walking faster to bed.
'Can't take another step...' black dots start to appear in my eyes.
I force myself to wake up, but it's too late.
I fall into unconsciousness.
...
Killua turns around at the sound of something falling. His hands move from inside his pocket to his sides, ready for anything that might come at him. Nothing make an indication that someone's coming though.
'They must be hiding...' he walks back.
Not quite...
After a few steps, he sees a figure on the floor. Blood, scars, injuries, and bruises can be seen from his eyes. He sighs at the girl on the floor.
'She collapses... again,' Killua rolls his eyes.
This is the tenth time he sees Nagisa drops from exhaustion. He feels slightly sorry for her, but Illumi has taught him to not pity anyone. Thus, the feeling comes as fast as it goes.
The boy carries Nagisa to her room and orders the maids to clean up her wounds and change her clothes. The maids bow to him when they finish their job and he nods in response.
He looks at the sleeping girl silently, not wanting to disturb the peaceful atmosphere in the room. He keep looking at her until he realizes that he will be late to go and play with his sister again.
Just as he turns around, a weight pushes him down on the floor.
"What's your business here?" he hears the voice above him says coldly.
...
I open my eyes only to see the same door that brought me to the Hunter x Hunter world.
'What is it doing here?' I tilt my head to the side in confusion.
This door shouldn't be here...
I haven't even get started with the ridiculous job.
"Greetings, my dear customer," a voice echoes in the dark.
I look around, expecting to see it anywhere in the blackness.
"On your shadow, sweetie," it chuckles lightly.
'My shadow?' I lift my eyebrow as I don't understand what he meant by that.
How is there a shadow when there's no light?
"Where does a shadow glue to you?" I can feel it hiding another laughter.
My eyes avert downward to the floor and whadaya know?
It's there, waving at me vigorously.
I waste no time to go straight to the point, "I'm not going home, right?"
"No, your not. You still have to amuse me further in the Hunter Exam and so on. You still have a long journey, darling. No worries!" it grins.
"I'll hold on to that. So?" I shrug, indicating it to explain what it wants with me.
It blinks as it says, "Can't I say hello to my customer? Nine months have passed since the first time you come here and my, I love how you can solve my riddles,"
Riddles?
"You mean like why I go back to my world and about my power?" I cross my arms.
"Bingo!" it laughs, "You like your power I gave you? It's special, you know! And expensive to buy in the store! Though, since I've been watching your every step, I think buying that Nen for you is not a waste. You're growing exceptionally slower than my other customers, but in a strong, definite pace. The power-"
"The power to nullifies any Nen power within a certain distance. The distance is equal to the size of my En while the duration is how long can I keep my Ren times 4. This basic power is what I called "Null Zone"." I cut it off
"Te-hee~ A fantastic power, ne? But, if you want to use this Nen power multiple abilities to the fullest, the condition will change." it smiles gleefully.
I nod slowly, "Yeah. The condition for the duration will be how long can I keep my En..."
"Ping-pong!" the shadow under the floor twirls.
Null Zone. I used it when I played with Alluka for two straight hours.
Just then, my En is already a meter from my skin and I can keep my Ren up to 30 minutes.
Although, all of that is a gift from it to every customer who have the same wish as mine.
'I couldn't have make it without that...' I smile thankfully at it.
"Well, you can use Ten and Ren much better than the first time! Keep up the good work, alright?" it encourages me.
"I will." I nod.
"Oh! almost forgot about the last little bits of information!" it jumps lightly.
"What is it?" I ask.
"You see, the key will appear only when you are in. your world. The key will disappear once you go inside the other world. And!" it stops to look at me with a smirk
"Nevermind~ It won't be that fun to watch if I tell you now!" it turns around.
"Oh, come on! Will it spoil your fun a lot?" I pout.
It nod enthusiastically, "Yes, it will. Though, as an exchange for this information, I will give you 2 things,"
More gifts? Seriously?
"First of all, I will send you some things that will be useful for you in the future to your room. The next one is..." it smirks once again.
"What?" I blink.
It chuckles once again as it asks...
"Aren't you interested in the one who forces me to push you back home?"
That question brings me to ecstasy.
What about the answer?
... The answer serves me a serious state of shock.
"My, my~ One of my favorite customers has pull the heart of a certain Zoldyck otaku because she has the complete package to try on the girl cosplay clothes he bought~"
...
I snap my eyes open, wanting to scream so loud when I heard a footstep beside me.
'Don't tell me... It's Milluki?!' my face reflects disgust right away.
As quickly as possible, I pounce on the figure.
"What's your business here?" I say coldly, trying to scare the person under me.
Out of instinct, I push the person down.
Which probably, not the best thing to do... to the wrong person.
"Damn it, Nagisa! I know, you're as heavy as an hippo, but you don't have to prove it on me!" Killua groans in pain.
My eyes widen in surprise when something clicks in my head.
Killua is on the floor...
The worst case is with me on top.
'Milluki... I blame you for this!' I angrily curse the big-fat-pig in my head.
