"What the hell was that back there?" Phinks mumbles, half-saying to himself. "The kid outright squashed that guy like a can."
"I don't know... his aura..." Chrollo takes a deep breath. "It was the same one I sensed before Yan died. And his body... it was too similar to that man's after the boy was done with him."
"He killed Yan?" Feitan hisses.
"Hate to defend him, but I really don't think that brat's lying." He gives said brat a contempful glance. "He seems to know shit about Nen. He couldn't even protect himself from Fei's bloodlust. Damn it, even his aura usually feels different. Is it possible he can summon something?"
"Perhaps." Chrollo gives a small nod, thoughtfully gazing out the window.
Feitan snits in the back seat. "So what? Does it even matter whether the brat can control his powers or not? They're his powers either way."
"In that case, whether he killed Yan-- directly or indirectly, doesn't matter. Going by our rules, he should be allowed to join the Spiders then." Chrollo remarks, his voice as calm and smooth as usual.
An uneasy silence falls over the company.
"The boy is too weak to use his powers. Perhaps they haven't developed enough to suit him yet, or perhaps they have strict conditions. Either way, could we use it? One way or another, Mori's ability is linked to his, maybe he can use it freely, or he possesses the same ability." Chrollo suggests.
"Well, that leads up to our initital goal-- finding that bastard. Easier said than done though." Phinks growls.
It has been two years... yet... I can just not rest until--
"What do we do then, Danchou?" Phinks sighs, getting tired of the boring roads.
"Do as we planned to. Regroup."
"We are on our way there. What after it? It's not like we have any leads... unless you count the brat. He doesn't know a damn thing though."
"He can still be useful. I suppose, for that, however, we'll have to figure out his ability first."
"He can crush his opponent like a can as I said earlier. What else?"
Chrollo simply closes his eyes. He hasn't slept in days, probably more than a week. He doesn't sleep much usually anyway, but he does get a few naps in between. He can't even get those anymore... ever since he found a lead... and there he thought he could have let that memory rest...
