Eyes of Happiness



Chapter 4: Youkai



Early the next morning, Kurapica got out of bed. His companions were still all drowsing so he didn't bother on waking them. Some time later his phone rang, he quickly answered it as he went to the balcony to avoid much noise.

"Hullo!"

"It's been a while Kura-pi-ca!" the man on the receiver said in a rather seductive, humming tone.

"HISOKA!? What do you want?!" Kurapica said coldly

"Ts, Ts, Ts. Is that how you talk to an old acquaintance?"

"Cut the crap, Hisoka and tell me what you want!?"

"uh, uh, uh. Meet me at the old warehouse at around-"

"I'll meet you now! And you better not try anything funny!" Kurapica cut him off.



"Whatever you say my scarlet eyed youkai!" Hisoka said seductively as he hanged up.

"Shit that bastard!" Kurapica cursed as he went back inside the room. He changed into his regular blue outfit and left a note in his well fixed bed and left quietly.



~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~



When Kurapica reached the old warehouse



"Now tell me, what is there to discuss?" the blonde said seriously as his eyes fell on the man in the corner of the room, building a tower of cards.

"Hmm.what's the hurry?" Hisoka said without looking at him. Kurapica wasn't at all patient with Hisoka so he turned back and started walking away when the jester's rigid voice exclaimed

"You're after the red eyes of Kuruta aren't you not?" this one sentence caught Kurapica's full attention and he turned back to the man

"What do you know!? Where is it!?" Kurapica exclaimed.



Hisoka laughed as he set he eyes on the blondes "I knew you'd be interested demo, why do you think I'd tell you where it is?" he said laughing again.

"Shit you! What do you want me to do to make you talk?!" Hisoka grinned and his eyes glimmered.

"You'll do anything?"

".Fine!" Kurapica finally said but what he doesn't know was that he made a deal with a devil.



"I want you to kill her, with your very own hands of course" he said in almost a whisper

"The hell are you talking about!?" Kurapica exclaimed glowering at him.

"You're too slow boy! Kill the girl by the name of Neon!"

"Na-Nani!? What makes you think I'll do that, necromancer!?"

"Hmm.you should even thank me, let me just tell you that that girl's blood will smear in your very own hands anyways, weather you like it or not. It's your destiny and its instinct that will possess you to do it" he said,

"Shut up!" Kurapica exclaimed, as it was pretty obvious that the redness of his eyes started to give in. "I'll protect Neon from you AND Geneiryodan!" Kurapica exclaimed marching away.

Hisoka laughed maliciously "But can you protect her from your own clutches, youkai!" Hisoka said driving his fingers on his hair.



~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~

As Kurapica was out of the ware house, the jester's words started to haunt him "What does he mean?! I'll never hurt Neon! Never!" he murmured to himself as he walked but was abruptly disturbed by the beep on his phone.



There was a message received and as Kurapica stared at it he felt that something bad would happen, maybe not now but sooner or later. The message read:



Still can't accept the fact, youkai?

Here's a little clue to heat things up, the red

Eyes can be found in a certain forest, but beware it

Chooses its master, so if you cant control it then...



Well, till then stay alive. The truth awaits you!





"What nonsense! Youkai? Why does he keep calling me that?" Kurapica thought saving the message and going back to the hotel.



~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~



When Kurapica arrived back in the apartment



"Kurapica!" Neon exclaimed as the blonde entered the room. Kurapica stared blankly at the girl as if wanting to say something but didn't come out.

"Nani?" she said "Eh? Go-Gomen! Its nothing!" He lied but in truth Hisoka's words disturbed him.

"Kurapica! Mouu, where have you been!? We were so worried!" Gon exclaimed as Kurapica smiled at him

"Gomen! Gomen!"

"Where'd you go anyways?" Killua asked suspiciously.

"Ano, I just visited an old acquaintance"

"Hm, I thought you didn't know anybody around here?" Killua added



"Lets not talk about this" Kurapica said not wanting to reveal that he had been collaborating with their rival and enemy, Hisoka.

"The 3 of you should start packing, we'll be leaving today to search for the red eyes of Kuruta! By the way where is that horny bastard?!" he added

"Reorio? He's in the shower, but now that you mentioned it has been hours since he went in!" Gon replied, wondering,

"Maybe the fool drowned" Killua exclaimed sarcastically



After a few minutes, Reorio came out of the bathroom, catching everyone's attention causing each of them to turn crimson from both embarrassment and shame

"Yaaah!" Neon screamed covering her eyes with her hands

"BAKA! What the hell are you thinking walking li-like that!" Kurapica exclaimed

"Mouu! What's wrong on walking naked!?"

"Cause its indecent and you might have forgotten we have with us the opposite sex along with us!" Killua said

"Mouu! Reorio has no shame at all!" Gon added,

"Shit! For crying out loud go get changed!" Kurapica said furiously.

"Fine. Fine. Fine. But you'll regret not seeing my beautiful body!" Reorio smirked as he went back to the stall to change.

An icy breeze suddenly passed everyone setting a cold chill in their spines. "Brr, that guy's shameless!" Killua said as the 3 agreed.



~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~



After what seemed to be hours of waiting Reorio finally came out fully dressed. Kurapica gave him an evil glare on their way out and he kept distance from him. "Eh?" Reorio wondered. The blonde went out the room, followed by Neon, Killua and Gon and soon, Reorio.

"So shall we go!?" Kurapica asked but Reorio shook his head in disapproval.

"I'm not going till I meet the stupid son of the bitch in charge of this crummy place!?"

"We don't have time for that you amoeba brained-" Killua exclaimed but was cut off "

"Shut up brat! Besides this'll take only a while, I'll just clobber that guy and teach him a lesson or two!"

"Ieeee!" Gon said slapping his forehead with his palm.



~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~



As they arrived in the lobby, Kurapica and the others took their seat while Reorio approached the administrator.

"Oi! Where is the manager of this crappy place!?" Reorio said rudely

"Do you have an appointment, sir?" the man asked,

"See here baldie! If you don't call the manager right now, I'll make you regret the fact that you were even born!" he exclaimed pointing at the shiny head of the man. (Imagine the bald ninja guy from the first season, he kinda looks like him)



"Ve-very well sir, please wait here!" the man said, terrified. Reorio took his place in the futon where Kurapica and the others were comfortably sitting.

"Hmph! Baka Saru!" Kurapica murmured as he started to read a book, not paying too much attention to his companions.

"I pity that poor man, he seemed to be terrified!" Neon said, as both Gon and Killua nodded

"Who wouldn't, after staring at this stupid, horny no good-for-nothing money!" Killua added

"What did you say, twerp!?" Reorio exclaimed, fuming.



After several minutes an elegant woman came, she had long brown hair and beautiful green eyes. She walked towards the place where Kurapica and the rest were.

"Ohayo!" she greeted. Reorio being attached to women started to drool as he stared at her from head to toe.

"Ohayo, ano, can I do anything for you?" Kurapica gestured back.

"Eh? You got it all wrong, my subordinate told me that there was a compliant about our service so I came to check out on it." She said politely as she pointed on the man from earlier.



Reorio's jaw dropped "Ano, so you're the manager?" Kurapica asked closing the book in his hand.

"Hai! Saomi Kanzaki, 17 year old." She introduced

"Aren't you to young to be running such a big business?" Gon asked innocently

"Actually I'm only taking over for my dad who's away for the moment." She said, glancing at only Kurapica. Neon noticed their eye contact with each other and that made her fume or shall I say jealous.



"Oi! Reorio! Here's your chance, you wanted to talk to the manager didn't you?" Kurapica said

"Ha-Hai!" Reorio exclaimed as he stood up, facing the woman and staring at her emerald like eyes. But instead of doing the violent stuff he kept on mentioning earlier he suddenly grasped her hand and said all lovingly "Would you go on a date with me Saomi-chan?" making Gon and the others sweat drop.

"Man! Here he goes again, trying to hit on a pretty lady?" Killua said

"Mouu! I thought he was being serious!" Gon added,

"He's such a flirt" Neon smirked, blushing.



Saomi pulled her hand away from Reorio's "Ehehe. Gomen demo I only date guys who are about my age!" she said. Reorio was shattered while Kurapica and the others couldn't help to crouch, holding their bellies and forcing themselves not to laugh.

"Hahaha! Reorio hasn't even courted her and he's already been dumped! Hahaha!" Killua teased.

"Demo, Reorio is TOO old for her!" Gon replied, rubbing it in.

"That's what a flirt like you deserves!" Kurapica added as Neon started giggling even more.



"Mouu! You guys are sooo mean!" Reorio said,

"Well, anyways, I'm really sorry for wasting your time Kanzaki-kun!" Kurapica said, smiling

"Eh? Leaving so soon?" "Hai! We still have some business to attend to." Kurapica explained,

"I see" Saomi said frowning

"ja'ne, Kanzaki-kun" Kurapica gestured as he turned his back and walked away, followed by Gon and the others.

"Matte!" Saomi shouted.

"Nani?"

"Ano, please let me come with you?" "Ehhh!!!???" were both Neon's and Reorio's reactions.



"Demo, Kanzaki-kun, where we're going is kinda dangerous, and I assure you that it is no game!" Kurapica tried to convince her.

"Onegai, Kurapica!" she begged

"Oi! You can't go, number one; you're a complete stranger. Number 2, no one will handle this place and lastly it's to dangerous!" Reorio exclaimed,

"I'm not a stranger! I already introduced myself to you guys, or is it plainly because I dumped you that's why you consider me as one. Number 2 my subordinates can handle everything while I'm gone and lastly."

she explained as Reorio fumed. "Lastly, do you even know where you can find the red eyes of Kuruta?" She added seriously.



Everyone glared at girl as if she had said something not to be. "How did you know that we were searching for the eyes!?" Killua exclaimed

"Telepathy"

"Eh? Telepathy?" Gon asked as Saomi nodded

"Reading other people minds."

"Ne, do you know something about it?" Kurapica said calmly yet coldly.

"Of course I do, Kurapica"
