~Time Skip~

It's been a week since the funeral. Honestly I don't understand how I've been able to handle this. Truly what I had been doing was bottling up my feelings, trying to drown myself in work and overstimulate myself so I didn't have to think about it. This had gotten so bad that I haven't bathed in a while, just so I didn't have a chance to think in the shower. I was so distracted by my work that Leorio had to bring me Chinese takeout almost every day.

Today, my tired eyes scanned my computer, clicking on links to websites in order to find something that could help me find the Scarlet Eyes. I clicked on another page in order to search up some stuff that Neon might be interested in. The steam from my coffee cup wafted up to my nose and the smell caused my hand to drift towards the handle, like a moth to a flame.

I knocked the mug over and the coffee spilled all over the table and I grabbed my laptop in an attempt to save it. I then proceeded to drop the computer on the ground, the coffee spilling off the table and dripping onto the floor and my now most likely broken computer.

"Son of a bitch." I muttered under my breath.

I checked my computer and tapped at the keys and tried the ON button, but no matter how much I attempted, the computer wouldn't turn on. It was broken. Did I even have the money to fix it?

Probably not.

Just my luck.

As I was about to clean up my mess, someone banged on the door. I groaned and pulled off the red hoodie I was wearing and tossed it over the coffee. I could get it cleaned later. Heading towards the door, I attempted to try and look somewhat presentable by running my fingers through my hair. Leorio never knocked, just straight up walked in, so this was a guest… whoever it was. I hoped I didn't look as bad as I felt.

I opened the door to greet whoever was coming to visit. My eyes fell down when I only saw the very top of a head in my vision. Standing before me was a little girl wearing a pink and green dress with many folds. She tugged at strands of her blackish-purple hair with strange beads in it. Her blue eyes filled with an innocent hope, like she was smiling with her eyes as well as her lips.

"Hello!" She said happily, "Are you Kurapika?"

I was taken aback. I had no clue who this girl was or who she could be connected to. Unless she was related to anyone I worked with. But I couldn't just lie to her, she seemed so kind and hopeful. So I said yes.

She clapped her hands together, "Yay!"

I smiled awkwardly and didn't know what to do next. Suddenly someone appeared next to the girl and immediately recognized them… it was one of Killua's brothers. I blanked on his name but I recognized him easily with his black kimono and dark hair. So was this little girl is Killua's sister? He had never mentioned having a sister before.

The girl held out her arms wide, "Give me a hug!"

"Er…" I said and I saw Killua's brother panic a bit.

"Just go ahead and hug her," He said, "Then I'll lead her into another room, it's because of…. something."

So I hugged the little girl and she laughed in joy. Killua's brother then took her hand and led her away, her face a mix of confusion and sadness. I was too confused to want to understand everything that just happened. Eventually Killua's brother returned, the worry in his eyes dying down a little.

"Kurapika, me and Alluka have found a way to save Killua. You just need to tell us where he is." He said.

The pang of hurt stabbed into my heart once more. The distraction was over and now I had to think of his death all over again. But within that hurt, I felt a flutter of joy. Did they really figure out a way to bring Killua back? If so how and when?

Killua's brother looked me in the eye, "It's a secret, but a spirit inhabits Alluka and it can bring things back from the dead through wishes. She demanded a hug, she needs to demand two more things of you before you can make the wish of Killua's life. So hope that they aren't bad."

That was a lot of info already, but I got the gist. Basically I had to let the girl, Alluka, demand things from me… then I could wish Killua back. I nodded and went to get ready. We were heading to a graveyard today.
