"This is all your fault, if you had just stayed put and let someone else go, we would have gotten to the other side by now" Leorio picked Tompa up by his collar and the two had been arguing the whole time.
"Leorio-san, we can't waste time like this!" Gon pulled on Leorio's arm, trying to pull him away from Tompa.
"I believe the boy is right, hurry and go, the man looks like he's getting impatient" Leorio grunted and pushed Tompa away from himself.
"Hisoka-san...can't I go, he doesn't look like the type to fight!" Hisoka stood up and with one fast swipe of his arm, Gon hit the ground with blood coming out of the side of his mouth.
"Hisoka!" Leorio and Kurapica went to his aid but Gon just wiped the blood away with his sleeve and pushed the other two away from him, stood up and walked to the back, all the way to the wall.
"Arguing is one thing, but to hit your team mate is a whole different story, Gon is a member of our team and I believe he deserves to have a chance at something" Leorio nodded.
"Why don't you find out what that man intends to do"
"Alright, then I will...OI, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIGHT?" The man on the block took two candles out, a short one and a long one.
"IT ISN'T A DEATH MATCH, IT'S TO SEE WHOSE FLAME WILL GO OUT FIRST"
"Hear that Hisoka, it doesn't sound dangerous to me"
"Leorio, there has to be a catch to that"
"Kurapica, a while ago you said Gon had every right to fight, now you're saying he shouldn't?"
"I'm not deciding his choice for him, I'm only stating that he might have something up his sleeve"
"This sure is an odd group..."
"You have no right to speak since you lost!"
"Enough, all you two ever have done was bicker and argue the whole time we've been here, Leorio, you will go in Gon's place"
"M-me?"
"You also have the right to fight, don't you?"
"But it's just as you said, he might have a trick up his sleeve!"
"Hisoka, why won't you let him go, he is a team mate and has exceptional skills"
"Three blind mice once went to a storage room where all the food was being kept, the third mouse had a very unique skill where as the others didn't, the man who owned the storage heard a noise in the storage and found out about the mice, he took a shovel and prepared to attack, the two other mice knew what was coming but quickly ran away, leaving the poor mouse to fend for himself, the third mouse used his skill on the man and returned to the other two but killed them both for not warning him ahead of time, tell me, why should Gon fight for a failure and a man who doesn't want to fight?"
"That story and Gon are way too different from each other, Gon say something, you said it yourself that you wanted to go...Gon!" Gon wasn't listening and instead was facing the wall.
"Leorio hasn't gone yet either so I don't see what's so bad if you let him go"
"Gon is a quick thinker and is naive, put the two together and you get a good combination"
"I would really love to hear more of this, but if you guys don't hurry, we won't be able to pass"
"Do what you want, and Gon...you better not lose" Gon walked quietly out onto the block.
"All you have to do is choose which candle you want and light it up, the one to go out first, loses" Gon nodded.
"I choose...the short one!" Leorio's jaw dropped.
"Idiot, everyone knows you're supposed to pick the longer one!"
"Really?"
"Enough talking and get your candle" The man pulled out two lighters in one hand and the candles in the other hand.
Gon took the short candle and a lighter and walked back to where he was standing before.
"Ready?" Gon nodded.
"Then...go!" They both lit up their candles and held them in their hands.
A boy with silver coloured hair and onyx coloured eyes looked around the dark but still lit room and smirked. He sat against the wall and heaved a sigh of relief. He was the first person to reach the goal and had to wait for everyone now. He was surprised to see that Hisoka wasn't here yet and wondered what sort of test Gon and the others were doing.
Minutes had passed and Gon's candle was dripping with wax. He tried to stop it from running by blowing on it but it was no use. The wax was hot as it touched his skin and he had to pass the candle between turns. The man that was competing against him, snickered. While he was in deep thought, he hadn't noticed a certain boy was in front of him. Gon gave one blow to the man's candle and the flame went out.
"What the?" Gon dropped the candle he was holding and jumped for joy while the score changed from two to two, to three to two. Kurapica and Leorio smiled as Gon walked back to the group.
"You did it, you little monkey you!" Leorio gave Gon a noogie.
"Now's not the time to celebrate, we still have to get to the lower levels"
"Ouch..."
"Gon...what's wrong?" Gon sat against the wall.
"It's...nothing, I told you not to worry about it"
"So what happened last night really affected you eh?" Hisoka asked and lifted the boy up and hung him over his shoulder.
"Hisoka...do you know what happened to him last night?"
"I do...but I wouldn't be stupid enough to tell you"
"Why not?"
"Cause it's none of your business, now let's just get out of this tower alright?"
"As the man said, let's just get going"
Leorio shoved Tompa away and walked beside Kurapica as they passed the prisoners. They walked down another long hallway until they came across two doors again.
"I choose right" Everyone pushed their buttons.
Leorio scowled at Tompa who just turned his head toward the ceiling. The sign had showed four for right and one for left.
"We made it brothers, we're finally done with the trick tower"
"There's this many people here already?" There were at least ten to twelve candidates either sitting down or exercising.
"It took me 32 hours"
"Ganzo...so you were here first?"
"I wish I could say yes but it was actually..." Ganzo pointed with his head over at Killua.
"Him?"
'Come on Gon...how long do you plan to make me wait...'
"This is fun!"
"You're being carried, how can you call this fun?" Leorio stated as the four of them ran down the hall. A large boulder was right on their trail.
They came across another door, that asked if they would take it or not. Only four of them said yes, Tompa kept pushing no. As they came to another door, after being soaked with water, it showed the same thing as it had been before, it was four against one. Leorio grabbed Tompa by the collar and glared at him.
"We've had enough of your acts, quit pushing the other one!"
"This time it wasn't me..."
"Bullshit!"
"I'm sorry Leorio-san, I pushed X by mistake"
"Told you it wasn't me"
"Gah...shut up you old fool" Leorio let the other man go and grumbled his apology.
"This seems to be the last choice" They were in a room surrounded with weapons.
"This is the last choice you will make, however, if you press 'O', only three of you will be allowed to go, but this path is shorter and will get you there faster, if you press 'X', all five of you will be able to go but this path will take at least three hours to get there, which will you choose?"
"We have a lot of time left, but we can't be careless into thinking there won't be any traps in the longer path..."
"In that case, I'll stay behind" Everyone looked over at Tompa who walked over to a chain on the wall and made it look like he chained himself to the wall.
"But Tompa-san-"
"This isn't the first time and it won't be the last that I fail the exam, but who's the other that is going to stay behind?"
"I definitly won't fail, I'm going to pass" Hisoka shook his head and laughed a little.
"Why don't you take those things off?" Hisoka let Gon down from his shoulder and walked over to Tompa who started quivering.
"Wh-what are you talking about?" Hisoka took a card out and held it up to Tompa's face.
Tompa began to panic and jumped away from Hisoka.
"I knew it!" Kurapica glared at Tompa.
"Trying to turn everyone against themselves won't work on this lively bunch"
"We can't start fighting, let's just all press 'X' and go"
"Gon is right, it's too early to actually worry about small matters like these"
They all pressed X and began walking.
"It's strange that Hisoka hasn't shown up yet, could he possibly have gotten..."
"Not that guy, he's a monster when he starts killing" While the Yamori brothers talked among themselves they heard the sound of footsteps coming closer.
"We made it...Hisoka-san, it still hurts.." Gon stated and rubbed his behind gently.
"It will go away soon"
"Gon, what took you so long?"
"Killua, what happened to you?"
"Ah, I fell into the entrance and just started walking from there, but it wasn't easy jumping those pillars"
"Ow..."
"What happened to you?"
"We teamed up with Tompa-san and had one-on-one matches with these prisoners"
"Lucky...but what about Tompa?"
Leorio glared daggers at the other man.
"Let's just say he was too weak to actually do anything, the damn idiot kept pushing the opposite button!"
"At least I went up against a prisoner where as you were just standing around watching"
"Is that a challenge?"
"It might be..." Tompa grinned as a man with black, spiky hair and a grey uniform walked in.
"Congratulations to all those who are here, you have passed the third exam, the blimp is outside waiting for you, once again, congratulations" The man smiled and walked out.
The candidates all stopped what they were doing and began to walk out of the room and all went onto the blimp.
A/n: Ohhh, I feel a vibe coming on, more Hisoka and Gon to come, stay tuned everyone! and no I'm not rushing, I have been neglecting my work and I really do like this idea of mine so i want to find out what happens next XD
