Prologue : Desert X Ice Cream X City of Sahari
In the middle of no where… well, in the middle of Sahari desert actually, two guys and two boys slowly walk in silence, trying to concentrate to the place they are heading for.
"Where the hell is that god-damned city!!!! We have been walking for a thousand mile!!! I want to go home… oh…. And this hot sand… and that hell hot sun…. O please!!!", The voice in side Leorio….. The man is wearing suit that absolutely not the kind of outwear normal human would choose in that condition.
"I have to concentrate to all of the nen energy spread out the city. I have to aware of people who wants my eyes. I have to concentrate to find the four last pair of my friend's eye balls…. Concentrate….concentrate ……concentrate…..", Well, that obviously Kurapika's inner voice… a guy (yeah.. I never believe it either!) with blond hair and a strange outwear…. A very strange outfit. There are a lot of little chains on every of his finger.. His weapon I perhaps….
"Na-na-na-na-na… we are going to the city….. Me, my friends… and I hope we'll find a lot of new friends… well, after helping Kurapika… poor Kurapika…. He still looks sad with his own mission….. I hope I can make him laugh and cheer a little bit…. Ahh.. Live is wonderfulll….. I love youuu…. You love me tooo… hip-hip huraayy…. Na-na-na-na-na..", marching on in Gon's brain… a never-ending-cheerful boy, holding a fishing rod and waiting each second will find an oase so he can use it……
"ice……..cream………… I………….ab…so…lute…..ly……. need …….. Ice……cr…..creammmmmmm………… please………. Ice….. ice…. Cr ……. Cream….. or…. i……will……. Kkk…..kkkilllll…. you…………. Ice…. Ice……Cr… creammmmmmm.", and the last… this is Killua …. A boy with silver hair. Wearing the most reasonable thing to wear in a desert… a cap.
These four folks are looking for the last four pairs of Kurapika's friend's eye balls. From the information that Killua got in the web, , in a city in the middle of Sahari, the city of Sahari, there are trends of making some eyeballs into lucky charms. Kurapika, as the last living Kurutan, feel responsible to collect all off his friends' eye balls. He almost hes done it. And according to his calculation, there only four pairs left. And the information that Killua's got is close enough to notice.
Searching all over the web, Killua found an interesting article of a local newspaper. "Eye balls… eye balls…. Give your self a lucky charm with a real Kurasu's eye balls" That's the head line… no wonder Kurapika's eyes instantly turn red… very red… Leorio notice, that the article wrote 'Kurasu's eye ball' …not Kuruta's…. But Kurapika have no other choice… he was absolutely hit a dead end on his search, and decide to lay his last chance to Killua information. Gon like usual never thinks about the risk, he volunteers to accompany Kurapika. Killua, with not very pleasant face, agree to come because of Gon.. And Leorio… well, when he was sleeping, Gon and Killua dragged him to the ship.
And now here they are… walking……with their eye staring at the horizon in front of them…..,hoping the end of the journey will come soon…..
Well, obviously God is with them. A city… very big city appears. It is a Russian-like city. With yellow wall and towers with mosque-like dome tops all around. The city is surrounded by some kind of lake, very blue lake…. Water…water….
"WATERRRR!!!!!!", Kilua and Leorio.. Absolutely not an inner voice… as they run to the lake... Dive… Splash!!!!….
Gon and Kurapika staring at each other… and than they run…… And Splash again… Long trip in a desert have last… the city is founded.. But what will happen next…???
Chapter One
No Tech City X Blue eye ball X 853,010 Zeni
It is absolutely not a modern city. It more likes a city with no technology. No cars, no neons, no video game (Kilua : Arrrgghhhh) and no phones. The only technology of now that remains like other big city.., is internet.
"No phone, but they have internet!??? How can!??", Killua, repeating that question for the twentieth times, since he got information from the receptionist of the hotel they checked in.
"Yeah. That's strange. And we can't use our cell phone. This city is on blank area!" Leorio, shakes his cell phone, and hopelessly throw it to his bed.
Kurapika holds his breath, thinking… "This city have internet, but there are no cable connecting this area to the global world… Still we can connect to the web with satellite, but if this area is a blank area…. How can they connect the web..????"
"It's connected Okay… and with fast bytes receives too…" Gon, using the hotel room Personal Computer. "And look… this is the article of the local newspaper today. 'Get your own Kurasu's Eye Ball. More blue, more expensive, but more lucky you will be!!!' Kurasu… I wonder.."
"I think Kurasu is a tribe like Kuruta, but instead of turning red, their eye ball turn in blue… A tribe that have the same thing that happen to mine…", Kurapika says those words, shaking… his eye balls suddenly turn red. Gon, Killua and Leorio can hardly say a word. They understand. Kurapika is very angry 'bout his own tribe… now he is angry that he know, there other tribe whose eye ball are for sale….
"Well", Gon break the silence, "Let's find those sellers, and find out about the Kurasu's Tribe… Right Kurapika..?"
"I agree… even if we can find anything about my friends' eye ball, maybe we can still save Kurasu's tribe…" The chain in his fingers shaking as a noisy voice of cling-cling heard. A voice represents the dark of a man's hearts….
*******
So they walk through the crowded roads. All the people in that city are staring at the very unusual outfit Kurapika wear. But it seems like Kurapika will never notice. And if he notices, he hardly even cares. Thus, Killua, Gon and Leorio keep their distance from Kurapika… they too, obviously, don't like Kurapika's outfit…
It seems like the city contain only tall buildings. Maybe because there aren't any cars, the roads are more like an alley, a narrow alley. Walking trough it it's like walking between two cliffs on our right and left. All those buildings are combination between yellow, brown and black. The people don't seem to speak much. Although there are very crowded, the only thing heard is steps. And Leorio notice, after he see the map of the city, that this city doesn't have any T junction, or some crossroads… it only have a turn, either turn to right or to left. "Strange city", Killua implied.
They went to a store that is mention in the web. It was a little brown wood walled store, beneath a yellow tall building. Compare to other store on the roads, this one seems like no body interest to shop in. Kurapika lead and get into the store by push the almost-broke door.
Kriiiiieeeeetttttt…..
"Well, what can I do for you???… Oh, four of you..I see???", a grandma-like voice come trough some very dry lips of a lady with big brown eyes wearing a red thick robs covering her body.
"We are interested of your article… about the Kurasu's eye ball…. We heard you sell some…?" Kurapika's voice sound very cold, and is clear enough he want Gon, Killua and Leorio keep silent
"Oh…. Looking for lucky charm ain't you…, well…"
"Why does the eye ball can be used as lucky charm….? It's just an eye ball..?"
"Nooo, my friend…. Kurasu's Eye ball is not just an eyeball. Kurasu's eye ball is a lovely blue eyeball… it can make you as strong as you believe… as smart as you believe… also keep away diseases and illness.. My friend…. Kurasu's eye ball is not always blue… it turn to beautiful blue, when they feel lucky.. Those eye balls turn blue as they absorb luck from the surroundings….. ah… he we are… one beautiful blue eye ball…."
It is not like the Kuruta's. This eyeball is hard and don't need to be inside a tube like Kuruta's. And the color is deep blue.. Beautiful blue. Not like the Kuruta's also, the usually white part of eye is also blue, but more dark then the center. It shines as it reflects light… obviously, more beautiful than Kuruta's……
"Yes… it is wonderful… charming… and full off luck…. I sell it for 5 million Zeni….. "
"Do you have others..??" Kurapika, trying to control his own eyes from turning red.
"No.. That's the last stock… You must order.. And maybe next month I have another delivered…. Do you want to order..?"
"Who's the supplier…??" Kurapika eye ball slowly change it color from blue to red. Now they are half blue half red… purple….
"Well….. Its my business secret.. Right…??? So do you want to take it…? Or leave it!!" The lady seems unpleasant know… Gon and Kilua prepare them self to help Kurapika capture the lady…
"Ok… Leorio….. Please bargain the eye balls for me… I want one…." Kurapika controls him self…. And gets out the store. Leorio… with to question… bargains the eye ball..
"Hey lady… this eye ball is to expensive.. I'll give you 3 hundred thousand for it Okay…!!!"
"What…….???" ……..
……………
Gon and Killua follow Kurapika to outside of the store….
"Well Kurapika.. Why don't you capture her and force her to tell whose the supplier..?" Kilua ask Kurapika carefully…..
"She won't tell…. And I feel eight men behind the wall with some nen energy… I don't like any trouble yet… we still new in this city… let's make some slow move….."
Gon keep silent.. he know… Kurapika want to be slow to control his anger….
Ten minutes later, Leorio come out with victorious smile…
"I got it for eight hundred fifty three thousand and ten Zeni….."…….
