CHARACTER PROFILE 1
Name: Yumemite
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Nen Type: Manipulation
Nen Ability: OBEY ME
Details of the Nen Ability: After fulfilling the conditions, her aura essentially takes over the pain receptors of her victim. With this, she can make them feel any pain of any degree of any kind any time. The pain starts from the neck and moves out to the entire body. She can manipulate as many people as she wants to at once. After the ability wears off, she has to fulfill the conditions again.
Conditions of the Nen Ability: She must be on contact with the victim's neck for at least ten seconds. During this time, she must ask the victim a question which they answer affirmatively (by saying yes, ok, etc). The effect of the ability only automatically wears off after 72 hours.
Weapon: A pistol with an unknown amount of bullets.
Other: She's addicted to gambling
CHARACTER PROFILE 2
Name: Suzui
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Nen Type: Manipulation
Nen Ability: HEAD OF THE HOUSE
Details of Nen Ability: He manipulates all parts of the mansion. This means that he can materialize walls in seconds, make any furniture move however he wants it to, materialise new furniture, etc. For confusing any intruders, he has set a strange rule for all rooms in the mansion-- leaving them results in teleportation into another room. 'Leaving' here implies that one is not touching anything of the room. There are of course many dead ends and loops. The rules of the room also apply to him. The rules of the room don't apply to the rooftop.
Conditions of the Nen Ability: He can only make changes within a radius of ten feet around him. Since the aura demand is so high, he carries a weapon with him.
Weapon: A pair of slightly curved twin blades with a brown handle, each three inches long. They can also be thrown.
Other: He created his ability nearly five years ago.
"One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six..." Metal sliding on wood before evey number.
A trembling hand on the strap of his bag, he debates whether he should go in or not.
A fist hits the table and pieces of metal fall to the floor. "Suzui!" A low feminine voice demands. "I know you're at the door! Your huffing and puffing always gives it away."
Shit. Fine.
Leaving his shoes in the rack, he enters. Loud footsteps tumble down the stairs and the very next moment, a bundle of giggles and purple hair not unlike his own slam into him.
"Big brother!" She squeals and it warms his heart. Stroking her hair he gently pushes her away.
"Suzui!" The voice demands.
"Coming mother!" He puts the bag against the wall and sprints to the living room, the floorboards crying out under each step.
Soon, he's taking shallow breathes, sitting with his eyes fixed to the ground.
"You are late. Again. Care explaining why?" The mere notes of her voice make sure to leave no room for any hope.
"I'm sorry." A stubborn child, he tries anyway. "I left my bag at the school and had to rush back to get it."
"Your excuses are not fooling anyone."
"But it's the truth."
"You dare talk back." A growl emerges from her throat and before he can think, the hand of a monster is wrapped around his neck.
Do I deserve it? Is a question left unanswered.
"I'm impressed." The man smiles. Long purple hair tied in a loose ponytail with a white ribbon. A pale lifeless face save for a pair of gleaming emerald eyes. "No one has ever managed to last this long against me. Oh well, no matter. After all, you'll be dead in a few moments from now."
The pool of blood on the floor only gets larger as Nobunaga tries to get back on his feet. The least he can do is get his sword back but it's too far away from reach. Trying to get to it might only result in his death.
Damn it. What the hell are those two doing.
"Are you sure this is the right way?" Gon complains as he lands on solid ground again. Teleporting with her really doesn't provide any perks.
"Yeah. Yeah. I know the whole mansion like the back of my hand. He changes some stuff sometimes like making it new or old but the layout practically remains the same." She shrugs, looking completely unfazed from the side effects of teleportation.
"He can do that?"
"Well it is his ability."
Strong winds ruffles through his hair and he has half a mind to jump down the rooftop they currently stand on.
"Would that even work?" He accidently says it out loud.
"You just have to trust it."
"Trust what?"
An awkward silence reigns.
"So... which category of nen would his ability be... Manipulation maybe--"
A strong hand clamps his mouth shut. He turns around to meet eyes with his companion whose wide smile covers half her face. A whisper from her and his blood runs cold.
"Damn you! Stop!" Gon yells as he's dragged into view by a lady who looks strangely similar to the man he was just fighting.
"Good evening Yume." The man greets her with a smile, which she returns. "Did you use your ability on the boy?"
She nods and shoves Gon towards him. Long slender fingers wrap around Gon's throat as he's lifted off the ground.
"Let me go, you--" His voice is cut off as the grip tightens. He kicks and kicks in a futile attempt to reach him, his frustration only growing with each try.
I need to... get up already...
The aura he has been collecting while lying on the ground bursts out, giving him enough strength to stand. The deep cut on his chest will need serious help from Machi later on but there are other things right now. His adrenaline should keep him from succumbing to the blood loss... at least for a while. Hopefully enough to free him.
"Up again? Aren't you persistent." He disdainfully glances in the swordsman's direction. "Yume, take care of the boy for a little more please."
She smiles. A snap of her fingers and Gon falls to his knees, clutching his neck.
Huh? Is it because of what he did or is it her ability?
"Your opponent is here!"
A slash through the air and he realises nearly too late that his sword is not in the scabbard. Cursing under his breathe, he's forced to leap back.
"Missing your sword?" The man grins, his eyes gleaming the same as the twin blades in his hand. "Such a pity~"
Damn... I'll have to give it my all Or it won't work... I need more aura... MORE!
"That boy. Is he your pupil?" The man asks, amused. "You seem quite protective of him."
"Shut up." Nobunaga growls, activating his En.
Metal clashes against metal, sending sparks flying in the air. Gon has to strain his eyes just to keep up with their blurred figures.
Yume grins. "Awestruck, huh."
"How can they even... move like that..."
"Experience or something I guess. They seem to be reading each others minds. Big brother has the advantage but your... whoever he is to you... is doing pretty well too. Aw... I wish I could fight them too~"
Gon observes the match, his eyes starting to catch up to their speed. If he wants to free Killua... he'll need to be at least as strong as that...
"Boy!" She nudges him. "What now? I got you this far. He trusts me to take care of you. So?"
"Huh?" Gon raises an eyebrow. "Weren't you the one in charge of planning?"
"Are you an idiot? When did we ever decide on that?! I just said I would lead you to him. Haven't I done enough?!"
After an awkward blinking session, both of them sigh.
"You're hopeless, y'know that. Figure something out by yourself for once."
"You're the gambling addict. Shouldn't you be the strategist?"
"I have never directly fought anyone. How did you not notice that already?"
"Huh?!" Gon exclaims.
She simply rolls her eyes.
On the other side of the rooftop, the series of onslaughts continue. Both men, bloody from the prolonged fight, refuse to relent. Pushing their lucks further and further, they completely ignore their limits.
"Die already!" Suzui yells as he blocks his opponent's blade with one of his own, the other already cutting through the air.
Nobunaga's grin widens as he leaps back, only to find himself slamming into a wall. This damn brat and his damn ability...
By concentrating some extra aura in his arm, he manages to block the blade. The other hand gripping the sword pushing against the blade's twin, he forgets to account for one thing-- his opponent'e free hand.
While his aura is busy fighting off the blades, Suzui's fist meets his unprotected body with a sickening crunch. The wide gash on his chest threatens to spill more blood everywhere as he falls to his knees.
His vision blurs and his opponent's taunts don't quite reach his ears as he dangles between the realm of ignorant sleep and cruel consciousness. The pain is something he can handle but the blood loss...
Strange dots dance around in his vision before all his senses shut down.
CHARACTER PROFILE 3
Name: Nobunaga Hazama
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Nen Type: Enhancer
Nen Ability: TERRITORY OF THE WOLF
Details of Nen Ability: Attacking someone in the range of his En boosts all his stats (strength, speed, durability, agility, etc).
Conditions of Nen Ability: The range of his En can be no more than 4 meters. The weaker his will, the weaker his power boost.
Weapon: A katana
Other: He's an iaido master.
[A/N: Finally cleared up the two abilities. I'm not 100 percent happy with them but brains like setting high standards sometimes. The next chapter is probably going to be the last one of this arc. Oh and since Nobunaga doesn't have any ability in canon I decided to give him one. I think it suits him well. Thoughts?? Also, yes-- the wolf in the name is canon related.
Also, FFN is glitching again. If I put in an italics, bold, or underline I can't remove it until I save the document and then come back to it. Also, whenever I come back to the document all the spaces between paragraphs I wrote last disappear and I have to put back all the spaces which is definitely annoying. I'm thoroughly convinced that my document is on drugs. Help?
Lilphantomtroupelady: 'Gon's sugar is meeting her spice'-- I love how you phrased that. Yeah, I am leaning towards that outcome the most as well but the arrow on my decide-o-meter is not being very helpful. Thank you.]
