colours of the world
Life is a game. All you have to do, is know how to play it...
Chapter 35
Sinea stepped onto the grassy planes of Greed Island. She blinked the sunlight out of her eyes as it blinded her momentary. Taking a deep breath she took a step forward into the unknown. Her eyes scanned the horizon, grassy fields for miles, with occasional trees and brushes dotted about. But she could feel the eyes placed on her…
One thing surprised her was that it didn't feel like a game – didn't look like one either. It feels like she was back in the normal word not a game. Strange.
Her book was already out pencil at the ready as she moved over to her companies both waiting for her to join them on their adventure. Though she had told them that she would be leaving them to game at some point.
When she found the perfect place to paint. She would only slow them down in their playing.
"Sinea! We decided which way to go! You coming?" Gon grinned pointing in the chosen direction.
"Sure" she nodded, following the pair though the grassy prairie. Listening as the two boys chatted about the game and the message Gon's father left behind. They made it to the town, with only one hiccup, with a random stranger - who ran feeling the dangerous blood lust coming from both herself and killua.
But the group soon found a large city. Which is where sinea may have spit up with the Youngsters boys….
To put it bluntly.
She got lost in the large city.
She had looked down at her book, letting her feet take her and upon looking up had discovered the boys had disappeared, with a shrug she had continued her aimless journey. The artist looked about the city, taking in the sights of the buildings and people… some giving her an occasional glance but most was ignoring her.
It was then the smell of blood entered her nostrils.
Letting her nose lead the way. She walked towards the growing crowd, surrounding the source of the blood. She stared down at the man, recognition filtering across her face as she realised the man had entered the game with the group.
"Sinea! There you are!"
She looked away from the dead body to Gon and Killua, as they stood beside her, "did you see what happened?"
She shook her head in response to Gon question as killua turn to a nearby stranger as he spoke. "His body suddenly exploded. There was a bang from inside his body"
She stared down at the body, was this part of the game? If so…she glanced towards Killua, could the same thing happen to him? What had the stranger done to him? Suddenly the body glowed brightly before disappearing. The player leaving the game and life for good.
She vaguely listened at the boys besides her began to panic about the spell the stranger case of Killua, only to have their panic calm by a fellow gamer. Sinea followed closely behind as she drew the vanishing body into the book – burning it into the memory.
The stranger spoke – the boys taking in the knowledge the man was freely giving them.
"Sinea over here!" Gon called, tugging at her sleeve pointing stone steps. Were several people sat, including the blonde girl from before. She sketched and listened to those talking around her, taking in the information….
Or not.
A lot of words were being said... Words which she wasn't listening to as her attention focused solely on her book. As images of virtual reality and real life over lapping entered her mind, even if Greed Island didn't look like a game, it did hold a fair amount of inspiration for the artisan.
"Hey, what about you?" the stranger asked.
"Huh?" she responded, snapping out of her thoughts.
"Sinea! Come on" Gon and killua called.
She blinked, looking between the walking figures of the boys and the strangers. "Good bye, it was a pleasure meeting you" she nodded and followed the boys.
She was the first to noticed the presence of the blonde girl following them, the girl had been following them for a while at a distance, watching as the younger boys took part in a competition to strangers trying to steal the game for them… little did there know that the card was tucked away in her book instead of the boys.
It didn't stop the boys from using the game to their advance.
Or from more advance players from trying to take the card from them, sinea stuck to the side lines merging with the crowd as the pros tried to steal the card. It was after the 4 person tried did there realised that neither gon nor killua had the card…
It wasn't until the boys where leaving the city did the blonde shadow made her appeared known. "Wait for me!"
Killua bluntly turned the girl down, telling her to go away. Something at which sinea frowned at but didn't say anything as the group made their way into the forest, the blonde girl following behind them.
She wasn't sure how long there had been running for, but one thing was for sure. Sinea had found it – her base for the time in Greed Island. She had spotted it out of the corner of her eye, the bright green, followed by the sparkling blue of a little spring.
She stopped dead. Facing the direction of the beautiful colours.
"Sinea?" questioned Gon.
"This is where we part ways..." she stated with a small smile. "If you need anything give us a shout…"
"Okay!" the boys grinned, "same to you! Have fun sinea!"
She waited a moment before turning towards the blonde girl who had landed besides the blue haired artist, "look after them"
"I will, they are unpolished jewels"
The artist glanced towards the women, before sprinting towards the grassy spring she had spotted in the distances. She breathed out as she reached the chosen spot, surveying it she nodded in approvable, it was beautiful.
Thought the bluenett was having trouble working out whether it was reality or virtual. She sat down taking in the view, thinking over everything she had seen heard, felt since arriving on Greed Island – so much information – so much to captor the image of.
Too much to be a game.
This must be somewhere in the real world, somewhere secluded… and riddled with Nen.
The area she had chosen was a grass spring area surrounded by woodland, the water glittered brightly as the sun reflected on the moving surface. The moss grew on the rocks, and surrounding embankments offering a comfortable place to sit, while the tree offered great cover.
Just off to the left of the spring was a small rock embankment with a little opening, a good enough space to hide stuff if she needed too…
There was just one thing missing… red flaming hair and golden eyes, of the one who had stolen her heart, drove her mad. He told her to come here... Yet he himself was nowhere to be seen, there was a strange aching sensation in her heart, a sense of longing. She missed him, needed him to be here yet he wasn't….
All in all is was a great workplace for her creations. Taking a deep breath, trying to push aside those thoughts she opened her mismatch eyes, moving her hair out of face ready to begin.
Let's see how this game can inspire her.
