Whelp. I gotta be sneaky. I have to figure out how to keep up my spot on the 200 floor while also pretending to be another fighter. About a year and a half ago Hiso-nii dropped me off at Heaven's Arena and told me to disguise myself as a boy so no one will steal my innocence, whatever that means, and get as far as I could while he took the Hunter Exam. It took me 2 months but I got to level 200 and have won 4 out of 4 of my fights on the 200 floor. I'm almost up for my time until my next fight. Eventually, I want to get to be a floor master like Onii-san is but that can wait a bit. This time I'll just sign up as myself!
I run up behind Killua and Gon who are walking up to the front of the line slightly ahead of me as I got lost in my thoughts and I jumped on them and yelled, "BOO!"
Both Gon and Killu jump a meter high and looked like they had seen a ghost. It was so funny.
Killu-nii got control of himself first and yelled at me saying, "Angel-chan! You shouldn't do that. And stop laughing!"
Of course, that just made me laugh harder.
"Yeah! That's not funny!" Gon joined in with Killua. "You'll make Killua's hair even grayer than it already is!"
"Hey!" yelled Killua at Gons comment.
That made me laugh even harder.
"Gomen Killu-nii, Gon-nii. I'll stop laughing." I tried super hard to say with a straight face but I kept giggling.
They both glared at me.
I just skipped ahead since the line moved forward and we were holding up the line.
They kept glaring as they walked over to join me.
After about a minute more of waiting in the line, I was bored. I pulled off my cheeseburger backpack and looked around in it. I pulled out my tea set and a thermos with tea in it. I set up my floating enchanted blanket and sat down and had a tea party with myself and Kuchi Kopi doll.
After about 10 minutes of sitting in line and having my tea party Gon and Killua look over at me for my opinion on some topic that I don't care about and just stare for about a minute.
After a minute of staring back at them, I asked, "Is there anything you need?"
Killua just stared while Gon said, "Why are you having a tea party on a floating blanket in the middle of a line?"
"Because I can. Would you like to join me?" I asked.
Killua stared and finally spoke up, "How did you get a floating blanket?"
"Onii-san enchanted it for me!" I said happily. "Come sit!"
Gon and Killua awkwardly climbed onto the blanket and got themselves situated. I gave them both their own tea cup and we sat in silence for a minute just sipping on tea.
"So, what did you want my opinion on?" I asked.
"Oh yeah!" Gon yelled. "What's better, white chocolate, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate?"
"Hm." I thought. "Dark chocolate!"
Killua glared and said, "Well that doesn't help. Now everyone likes something different. Gon likes white chocolate, I like milk chocolate, and you like dark chocolate."
I looked over to see the line in front of us and there were only 3 more people.
"AH! We should clean up. It's going to be our turn soon!" I said jumping up careful not to tip over any tea.
I pulled the blanket from under Killua and Gon catching everything in my backpack as it fell. Well, not everything.
Killua and Gon glared at me from where they sat on the ground.
I couldn't help but giggle.
They slowly got up and handed me their teacups which I put back in my backpack and by that time we were at the front of the line.
"Welcome to Heaven's Arena" The desk lady said as she handed us 3 forms. "Please fill-out this form and we will register you."
We filled out the forms and handed them back to the lady.
She turned to Killua and said, "Killua Zoldyck, you are #2054." Then turned to Gon and said, "Gon Freeces, you are #2055." Then turned to me and said, "Angel Lucifer, you are #2056." Then she turned to face all of us and said, "They will call your name on the 1st floor of the arena, so make sure you remember it. Please go ahead."
We walked through the tunnel that led to the 1st-floor arena and there was a lot of yelling.
"Ah, it's still the same after all this time." Killua sighed as he took a seat in the stand.
"Killu-nii! You've been here before?" I said shocked. "You didn't mention that before!"
"Yes I did, baka." He mumbled under his breath. "My old man dropped me here when I was 6 with no money and told me to come back once I had reached the 200th floor. Took me 2 years."
"Really! Wow, if it took you 2 years it must be really hard Killua." Gon said.
"Ah, I was 6 though. It'll probably take less time this time around. But you better keep up Angel-chan or we're leaving you behind." Killua replied.
"Excuse you! You'll be the one left in the dust. Just wait and see!" I said extremely sure of myself.
Gon's number was called out shortly after and he went to Ring E to get paired up with this big burly guy who was 3x his size. Gon then obviously won by sending the guy to the wall. K.O.!
Gon came back and told us he was placed on the 50th floor. Then it was Killua's turn. He knocked his guy out too! So did another kid who looked about a year younger than Killua.
My number was called out and I went up to Ring H.
"Little girl! What are you doing here? Go play with your dollies. You'll get hurt playing with big men." A big oaf mocked me.
A fun thing you should learn. Never. Mock. Me. I don't like being called 'little girl'. I just glared at my opponent waiting for the ref to say the words.
As soon as the ref gave the go I jumped and push his temple with my index finger. K.O.
The ref stared at me in shock and spoke shakily, "Please proceed to floor 50."
I nodded giving him a big smile as I skipped off to join Gon and Killua walking up to the 50th floor. In the elevator, the lady explained to us that if we lost we would go down 10 floors which was the equivalent to 1 level.
"I've heard that once you get to the 100th floor you get a room!" a voice said from behind us while we were in the elevator.
We turned around to see the kid who looked slightly younger than Gon and Killua.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Zushi! Osu!" said the kid.
"Hi! Your name sounds like sushi which is super cool! I'm Angel and this is Gon and Killua!" I said happily.
"I saw your fights earlier! They were amazing!" Zushi said to us as we walked out of the elevator.
"No. You made it up here in one match too. Don't doubt yourself." Killua said to Zushi.
"No I still have a long way to go," Zushi said waving Killua off. "By the way, which martial arts do you train with?"
"We don't train in martial arts." said Gon.
"What?" Zushi said stopping in his tracks. "You're that strong on your own?"
By this point I got bored so I walked over to the money exchange desk and got my prize money. It wasn't a lot though so I decided to go find a vending machine.
Once found, I decided to take my time choosing what I wanted. I could get chocolate milk, but I also kind of wanted to grape juice. Maybe I should get a vanilla milkshake. Kuroko likes vanilla milkshakes. Or I could get Ramune. I love Ramune. Especially the ones with the little Hello Kitty on it.
"I'll get Ramune then!" I said to myself pressing B4 on the vending machine.
I hummed happily to myself and turned around to look for Killu-nii and Gon-nii but I couldn't see them. Opps! I lost them. Maybe I should go to the waiting area. They'll probably call my name soon.
I walked in through the door to the waiting room and saw Killua, Gon, and Zushi talking in a corner. Well, Killua and Gon were talking. Zushi was whispering.
"KILLU-NII! GON-NII!" I yelled rushing over to them. "I thought I lost you forever!"
Killua sweatdropped and smacked me on the back of the head while Gon pulled me into a hug.
"Don't go missing again," said Killua. "Try to stay nearby next time you go wandering off."
"Angel-san! I'm glad you're alright. Killua-san and Gon-san were worried." Zushi said.
"Yea! Angel-chan, please don't run off again." Gon said.
I looked at them and smiled, "I'll try not to."
We were all about to sit down when Killua and Zushi's numbers were called to face each other.
"Goodluck to both of you!" I said to them as they exchanged pleasantries and walked out of the waiting area.
"Well, it's just you and me Gon-nii!" I said turning to face him. "Do you want some candy?"
He smiled and nodded taking the candy which we ate in peace watching the screen where Killua and Zushi where meant to show up.
Then Gon's number was called out.
Gon got up and said, "I should get going. I'll see you at the next level!"
I nodded and turned my attention back to the screen where Killua and Zushi had just appeared. Zushi kept on going in the fight even though Killua knocked him down. I was super surprised though when Zushi started to use Nen. I expected it but to use it at this level?
My number was called shortly after some weirdo yelled at Zushi. Probably his sensei. I got up and grabbed a lollipop from my bag, sticking it in my mouth as I skipped to the arena.
When I got there another big, overly strong, looking man was waiting. The same thing happened and I got called a little girl. He told me I should go home to my mommy and daddy. I don't think my 'Mommy' and 'Daddy' would like being called that and I doubt the guy would come back alive. I glared at him and did my finger push and it was K.O. for him.
Once the ref called the K.O. I went to pick up my stuff and take the elevator to the next level. As I was walking I heard my phone ring. Taking it out I quickly answered.
"Moshi Moshi"
"Hello, my adorable little sister."
"Onii-san!"
"A little birdie tells me that you entered under your real name at Heaven's Arena. Why so? I don't want the world seeing my little sister just yet."
"Ah, well. I'm here with the people I made friends with at the Hunter's Exam and I figured that I just won't try at the 200s. We're not planning on being here for long and I still need to battle as my alias."
I could hear him thinking about it over the phone.
"I'll allow it. Just be discrete in the 200s if you have to."
"You're the best Onii-san! I love you!"
"I will see you soon Angel-chan."
I smiled to myself. I didn't really think about what Onii-san would have to say about using my real name. Oops. I looked up to see where I was and realized that I stopped right in front of the elevator. I went to press the button but someone was ahead of me and pressed it first.
"Ah! Killu-nii!" I said smiling at him.
"Angel-chan. I assume you won?" he said.
"Yep! Nice and easy! How was facing Zushi?" I asked, already knowing to answer.
"His punches were weak and I could knock him around but he just kept getting up," he said seriously. "I'll explain more once we reach Gon."
I nodded as we stepped into the elevator and waited to get to the next floor. Once we reached the next floor we immediately saw Gon who was standing near the elevator. Killua explained to Gon and I the battle he had with Zushi. How Zushi used Ren and how he wasn't meant to until the top floor.
"I've changed my mind about this. I want to get to the top floor." Killua said at the end surprising both me and Gon.
Originally this was just as a way to train and earn money at the same time. Me and Gon both quickly agreed to the change in plans as we all went on to reach the 100 level in just 3 days. We reached the 150th floor in a week! But then Killua brought up his curiosity about Ren again and Gon suggested to go ask Zushi.
I decided not to go with them to ask Zushi. I didn't want to deal with sitting through yet another Nen lecture. Plus, they'd probably end up going to Wing and that would be an actual lecture. Instead, I decided to take a break from hanging out with the boys and instead go and complete my 200 battle under my alias.
I quickly changed into my outfit as a boy in my room in the 100s. I wore a dark blue headscarf to cover my hair and face. With that, I had on long nave blue trousers and a light blue long sleeve shirt.
Zapping to my room in the 200s I exited and walked to the desk clerk that assigned battles.
"Is there anyone who would fight me today?" I asked in a super low voice trying to keep my serious persona.
The clerk looked up startled, "Mr. Velnias, I believe that someone else came in not too long ago and asked for the soonest battle available. It should appear on your monitor within an hour."
I nodded silently and strutted back to my room.
I sighed. It's so hard to be boring.
