Chapter 1: Remember me not
A/N: First things first, characters belong to Yoshihiro Togashi the great, though this story belongs to me the great and no one else!!!
Hi! I wanted to try my hand at writing a K/N fic though I'm not really an all out fan of the pairing. The length of this fic will depend on the effort YOU people put into typing reviews for me. MWAHAHAHAHA! Just kidding! Read, review, and enjoy!!!

Neon was enjoying her breakfast by the balcony when a servant came running hysterically towards her screaming madly. Neon, taken aback by this, approached the girl and tried to calm her down.
"Now, now...what's wrong?" Neon asked, an ounce of concern in her unusually solemn voice.
The servant girl sighed and straightened up slightly. She took a deep breath to fully calm herself and spoke in a raspy voice.
"T-The new head bodyguard...Neon-sama...he's...he's...DEAD!!!" She dropped once more to her knees and sobbed into Neon's shoulder.
It may have taken a while for her to register what she has just heard, but once she did, she too burst into tears.

---Three days ago---
"Kurapika! Kurapika!" Gon and the others yelled as he dropped to the floor. It was right after they had settled their business with the Gine Ryodan when Kurapika fainted due to a high fever.
"Leorio! You're the oh-so-capable doctor around here! What should we do?!" Killua said, rushing to the airship's control room to land.
"We'll have to get him to a hospital!!!" Leorio yelled back at Killua.
As soon as the airship had landed, Gon, Killua, Senrithsu and Leorio rushed to the nearest hospital and brought the limp body of their friend into the emergency room. As they all waited for the doctor in charge to appear and inform them of Kurapika's current condition, they decided to ask a few questions from Senrithsu, Kurapika's other friend.
"Hey...Senrithsu...has he been eating regularly?" Leorio asked in a would- be-calm voice.
"Well...he usually skips meals and tells me he's not hungry." Came the trembling voice of Senrithsu in reply.
"Does he get enough sleep?"
"Well...he usually doesn't get to anymore...with all the work we have to do lately for the boss."
Leorio let out a low curse and said loud enough for everyone in the waiting area to hear, "DAMN THAT BRAT!"
Of course Gon and the others knew he was talking about Neon. At the same time he let out the unmistakable yell, however, the head doctor marched up to them with the bad news.
"I'm so sorry to report that...your friend has contracted a rare disease in the lungs. We...have no cure for it. I'm very sorry to also tell you that he is in the final stages and it will only be a matter of time before..."
The doctor didn't have to continue for them to get the picture. Their best friend was dying, though it was painful to admit it was true. They were allowed to visit Kurapika and be with him until the time comes.
---Back to present---

They entered the room, which smelled strongly of incense, and approached him slowly. They were surprised to find him awake. He turned to them wearily.
"Kurapika-san..." Gon cried and hugged him. "D-Do you kno-know what they said about you?"
"Yes. They told me. They also persuaded me to rest but...I think for a dying person to rest is...well, pointless." He replied. For a moment, anyone could almost believe he was perfectly fine, with how he sounded. The looks on their faces made him chuckle slightly.
"Kurapika, are you loosing your mind??? You're-You're dying!" Leorio exclaimed. Kurapika smiled back at him and replied.
"I haven't anything to regret. I'll die happy, I assure you. Just do me one favor, all of you..." He said, eyes half closed.
"W-what?" Gon and the others said weakly.
"Whatever you do...don't forget me..." He said, voice growing softer with every word he uttered.
"We p-promise not to...Kurapika!"
Kurapika closed his eyes, a small smile formed on hid placid face, the cardiac machine beside him giving of a continuous beeping sound. The beat was gone and the red line signifying his heartbeat going dead.
Kurapika, their faithful friend once full of energy, was now just a lifeless corpse.
~~~
Neon marched over to the hospital room in where her head bodyguard was confined. She knocked urgently on the door three times and when no one answered, she burst in.
She saw all Kurapika's friends kneeling beside him, heads bowed. She walked over to where he lay. She stared at the pale face for a moment before Leorio stood up and told her off.
"What the HELL are YOU doing here?!" He yelled angrily.
"Leorio! It wasn't her fault! She has nothing to do with it!" Gon stood up as well and restrained Leorio.
"Yeah! It's always none of YOUR business. YOU could not even give a damn about any of your workers. I'll bet you don't care about him...just as long as you get what you want. BRAT!" Leorio said, not able to control himself anymore.
Neon looked to the floor, tears steaming down her cheeks. Was he right? Did she care at all about any of her workers? She looked up and saw Gon, Killua, Senrithsu, and the furious Leorio glaring at her.
"I'm sorry. I-I just didn't realize..."
"You always don't realize it until it's too late! What is that supposed to be? Huh?" Came the sarcastic remark from Leorio once more.
"Please...Neon-sama...we are in grief. Please just leave." Senrithsu said, pushing her gently out the door. Neon complied, though she normally would protest at being forced out of the way.
As she was leaving the building, she heard a voice whisper in her ear softly. "Neon...don't forget me..." She could not believe her ears. Was it really...Kurapika???

A/N:
Well, this is a LOT shorter than the usual. Umm...I ran out of stuff to write!!! Anyway, is it crapy or something? Is this even really a K/N fic? So as usual...coments, suggestions, flames (HELPFUL ones please) and praise if there are any, are welcome in the review panel!!!
