A/N: Nen tracking is an interesting, workable concept. There's also a new side of Miss Kikyou to be seen here.
Beast On the Prowl
Nightlife in Rikka City is a corrupt and madeup, albeit still rather beautiful, mass of young flesh. The lights flash by knowingly, for this place is far from innocent. Though admired for the vast mountains and valleys surrounding the landscape, it has a different kind of wild side during the ungodly hours of the morning. Pity that she has never been able to enjoy any of it.
As if Kikyou Isabel Zaoldyck will bother with the likes of these trash. The search for her dear Illumi and other child is going well. She doesn't necessarily care for the brat, really - he doesn't add to the family business, being more fragile than her four other children. But Illumi, yes Illumi... He is excellent. There are almost no traces. The nen track is weak, presumably because he was using Zetsu. She almost wants to brag to the entire world about it.
He must have used his pins to change his appearance, like he does on those undercover missions. No one has seen anyone who looks like him. Otherwise, having Milluki hack into all the hotel records around the area, she is told he found only one Hisoka Z. Maud. Well, Hisoka is a pretty common name.
This Quenyan pseudo-last name, however, sparks her suspicion. As far as she knows, no one from Quenya can possibly enter Rikka at this point; immigration and traveling is cut off due to political strife. You should pay attention to the news, stranger, she thinks triumphantly.
Room 649, so Milluki says, of the Freeman love Hotel. At least he's not posing as a tourist with such a name. She wonders whether he is a terrorist. That will be wonderful; she can use the excitement. She has been cooped up forever in Kukuru Mountain, attending to the needs of her hubby Silva Zaoldyck, after all. She will pay this Hisoka back for distracting her son from his rightful duties.
Walking casually into the luxurious hotel, she grabs a man who is busily clicking data into his palm pilot. She does her best to try to act desperate, like a whore. It's been so many years since she did some killing of her own, sometimes this way. She needs someone to ward off the pesky security guards in front of the elevators.
Stroking his face and neck, she presses him against a piller with her own body, letting him swoon in her perfume. "Hmm..." Releasing a false groan, she states, "Would you care to entertain me, tonight?" To be convincing, she even reaches down between his slacks to give a gentle squeeze. He checks her out, assenting almost immediately. Men. When it comes to sex, they become pushovers.
After he books a room, they stroll down a hallway to find it. Rounding a corner and seeing no one in sight, she handchops the poor sucker's neck. Then she takes the key from him, drags him to the designated door to open it, and throws him in. Trash. Now, where is Illumi?
Here. This is the right room. She clicks a claw through the card slot; there is a number pad beside it. "Milluki, send me the custodial number keys to the rooms in this hotel." 46709394. Got it. She opens the door silently. Creeping around the walls, she peeks in. Listen.
Not a sound. Not even a perfectly hidden Zetsu. Curses, they left. Someone did live here, though.
She sticks a claw cleanly into the sheets. Some of it, at least, smells like Illumi. Having her nen look for other nen, she finds it. Transforming type, this Hisoka. There. My Illumi. Manipulative type. She knows it's his nen signature because of its subtleness. Kikyou starts tracking the familiar nen, like police would track someone using DNA.
Meanwhile, three kids, a teenager, an assassin and a maniac are just starting to negotiate.
Ending Notes: Yes yes yes. I'm just stalling. Who would you like to see fight the most? Granted, I've already decided the fight pairings. So tell me, since you've read this far, how would you like the fight scene to be done? Any suggestions are welcome.
