chapter 34
After their long hug, the pair slit when sinea started to get titchy. Hisoka had his usually smirk, but there was something more behind his painted mask that she couldn't quite work out…
The redhead had asked her about kuroro – to confirm whether he was her brother before telling her to go to greed island that if she did she might even meet him out there. That had instantly caught her attention but before she could get more answers out of the magician he gave her a quick peck on the check leaving her stunned before disappearing into the night.
She had just stood there, slowly rising a hand to her check as her red slowly grew more and more red before reality had sunk. He had just kissed her…
"Sinea!"
A loud cheery voice snapped the artist out of her thoughts. It was the second night of the art show and she needed to talk to guests promoting the work and to get people to buy stuff… Thought mainly Sarah was doing that part.
She was wearing the same thing as last night, as she turned towards whoever called her name. She gave the blonde a small smile as she stepped towards him. "Glad you could make it Phinks"
"Couldn't miss it, brought the gang with me as well! Don't worry we won't cause trouble" the spider member gave her a cheeky grin as he gestured towards the other... Slightly out of place troupe members.
Her glassy glaze ran over them all before returning to Phinks, someone was missing. "Where's paku?"
The male before her stilled for a moment before relaxing, "she couldn't make it... Sorry"
Sinea frowned, glancing back towards the other loitering members – all tense before nodding. She must be working out a way to free kuroro nen. "Sinea! These look awesome, tell me about it" Shal broke the silence before dragging the artist to one of the many paintings around the room.
"She's going to find out eventually" Franklin patted the blondes shoulder as him and Nobu stood himself him.
"I know… I just don't wanna be the one who tells her... Or about uvo… It's gonna kill her then all of us. She liked those two" Phinks sighed scratching the back of his head.
"We might as well enjoy the show" Machi spoke softly as her glaze followed the female and Shal around the room.
"Heard there's a few painting you would love Feitan"
"Shut up"
Sinea was dragged to yet another painting by the technology spider, when two strong recognisable presence entered the room. Ignoring the boys excited talk, she turned her head towards the two Zoldyck family members that had entered the room. Zeno and Sliva.
"Shal?"
"Yeah?"
"I have to deal with something you mind?" she guested towards the Zoldycks.
"Go for it sin~" the blonde grinned, as she left to walk over towards the master assassins.
"Evening gentlemen. What do I own the pleasure?"
Zeno sent her a smile before his attention roamed around the room. "Nice collection here. I'm glad you're feeling okay"
"I am feeling more alive" she smiled at the elder, "have a look around, there are a few painting of killua dotted about I believe, though most are upstairs in my more private collection." She gestured to the walls around them. Zeno glanced towards Sliva exchanging a glance the pair nodded.
"Could you give us a grand tour?" the sliver haired asked, Sinea nodded.
Slowly walking around the room her dress floated around her thighs as she gave the powerful males the grand tour, making sure to stop at all of the painting Killua. The males stayed silent behind her, observing the painting with professional manner, either male giving anything away.
She finished the tour in the round wall, the walls alive with the landscape around the trick tower. The room was surprising empty, despite the chattering crowds in the other room. "Now would you like to answer my question? What do I now the pleasure?"
"We would like to commission you for a job"
"Please talk to Sarah if you are commissioning me for a painting job" sinea responded automatically.
"We would like to talk about logistics with you yourself, better to keep third parties out" Zeno simply stated.
"Still I have been known to forget logistics, Sarah has done dealing with the mafia on commission before don't worry she is very discreet in the matters of business. What will the painting be of?"
"Just a family portrait"
"Will everyone be there?"
"All but killua"
"I see, I should be able to add him in despite him not being there" sinea stated with a smile, before passing the older male Sarah's business number. "Please get in touch, if you need to get in touch with me personally illumi should have my card still"
The master assassins nodded, before turning away. "She's a good artist don't you think?" Zeno stated stopping before a painting.
"Very true, she is a good choice for the family portrait and I believe she can be trusted" Silva nodded, glancing around the room, his eyes locking onto the members of the troupe dotted about the room, "and I believe it best we don't make an enemy of her... It would be unwise, it seems she has some very good friends"
Zeno chuckled, "Very true. Good friends in deed"
Sinea sat on her bed, back leaning against the wall as she sketched and waited. Waited for the moon to drift across the sky and her finale visitor to turn up. Hair shifting in the wind alerted her to his presence, "brother" she smiled staring up at the male before her.
"Sister" kuroro spoke, sitting on the bed beside her.
"I saw what happened, are you alright?" she question head tilting slightly as she took in his form.
"I am fine sin," kuroro spoke softly, "I have a plan don't worry. I had hoped to stay here form a bit but it seems my path lines east ward"
Sinea frowned slightly, her eyes dropping towards the page before here, "I see, fear not I believe my path is dragging me on another adventure. Though feel free to stay here whenever you please" she gave him a small smile.
"I shall take you up on that offer"
Good friends in deed
-x Time skip x-
Sinea sat in a giant room, other hopefully candidates and hunters sat around her and the young boys as the group listened to the military man, Tsezugera, speak about the task at was the 10th of September and after a busy few days training the boys, Gon and killua came round to the artists gallery and partially dragged her to the auditions – Sarah even gave her a little push out of the doorway to play this game called 'greed island'.
Sinea sighed though her nose, might as well make it her new project.
She vaguely listened, opting to draw in her little book as those around her shifted in there sits – moving quickly to get into the queue for the limited places. "Come on sinea! You go first"
Gon and killua gushed snapping her attention away from the drawing – she having been completely oblivious to the goings on around her. Soon the blue haired artist found herself in front of the imposing man.
"Alright show me what you got"
"Depends on what you want to see really" she countered, feeling the man eyebrow twitch.
"Ren" she released her Ren, the powerful blast of Nen hitting the military man's form almost knocking him off his feet.
"Pass, head though those doors" the man stated keeping a straight face, waiting for the next contestant to pass though.
Sinea glazed blankly at the other people in the room, only one person stuck out. A small blonde girl. She paused in her walk staring intently at the child like figure, something was different about her form... It was like illumi alter ego so to speak.
It just didn't quite fit.
The girl's eyes flittered towards her, as sinea continued to stare. "You shouldn't hid your true self... You never know who will expect you for who you truly are" sinea spoke softly, mix matched eyes drifted back towards the book in her hands.
"Sinea! Glad you see you passed" killua grinned, appearing next to the artist before dragging her to a bench.
"It wasn't hard, I have been using Nen a lot longer then you have" sinea cocked her head to the side, "though I am interested in how you did it…"
"If I tell you better keep it a secret from Gon, I want it to a surprised for him" killua grinned.
"Promise" the artist held out a pinkie finger, to which killua linked up with.
She felt it, the jerk of electricity running though there crossed pinkies… her grazed snapped up toward the blue shining eyes of Killua's. "What an interesting power... You are one of a kind" she smiled ruffling his hair having put two and two together.
Lighting, suits him. I wonder how far he'll go... she thought dully turning back to the sketch book pages before.
BANG!
Sinea tore her eyes away from the drawing, to spot Gon enter the room, a grin on his face having passed the test. The young boy sending the pair a massive smile, after parking himself on the bench in font – just as Tsezugera stepped into the room.
Seems like the test had ended and those in the room – were the ones gaming, going to greed island.
