Chapter Two

"Hey, Boiar!" She turned at the sound. It was Katherine. She gave Boiar a smug grin and walked right up to Kurapika. "Interesting.Why the heck are you wearing long sleeves? And hanging around with her?!"
WHACK!!!
The next thing she knew, Katherine was lying face flat in the sand. "Ew, I don't even want to touch you. Say anymore of that in front of me, and I'll personally make you eat sand!" Boiar walked away. Kurapika ran after her.
"Hey, who was that?" He asked.
"A girl from school. God, I hate her guts. Her name is Katherine. We've been enemies since fifth grade."
"Oh. By the way you whapped her, I'd say you were a martial artist, aren't you?"
"Yeah." Boiar whirled around to face him. "Okay, Kuruta, tell me the truth. What are you doing here? leorio isn't your brother; your real one is dead!"
Blue orbs clouded over. He stared into her brown eyes, "How did you know all of that?"
She stared back defiantly, "How did you get here?"
"It's a long story."
"I want to hear it."
Kurapika sat on the sand and stared out to the sea. "I wandered into some weird store with Leorio. We were only looking around. I do't know what happened, bu the next thing I knew, I was landing butt-first here. I think it was—"
"—A portal." Boiar finished for him.
"Exactly."
"What I'm wondering is whether it's a time portal, or something else."
"It is complicated."
"Well, as long as you're going to be here, you'd better go to school."
"Any recommendations?"
"Blue Sky Junior High. And a Hunter's License won't help you there."
"How'd you know about that?!"
"Just some intuition." She grinned.

The question is, how are Kurapika and Leorio going to get back to the Hunter World? ^-^
