+ Illumi vs The Vampire Hunter +
+ Chapter 08 +
+ The Apprehension +
Mitara's eyebrows collided when it seems that Illumi is contented enough with just staring at her.
"What? Is there something on my face?" she asked, while putting bandages on Illumi's wounds.
Illumi shook his head a bit. "Now I know why does someone is claiming you as his property."
"Huh?" Mitara's right eyebrow rose. "Someone is claiming me as his property? What do you mean?"
"Nothing."
Mitara stared at Illumi warily, while the latter is staring back at her. The distance between their faces slowly becomes nearly an inch. When suddenly…
"Eherm…" someone clears his throat obviously for them to hear it.
Mitara looked at her brother Killlua who's now standing at the open door of their house.
"Killua, you're home."
"Obviously, nee-chan," Killua uttered.
"I'll prepare our dinner. Can you wait for at least half an hour so I can cook it?" Mitara asked while putting back the medicine kit.
"Because you're busy, okay."
"No, I'm not," Mitara eyed her brother while going to the kitchen.
Kilua glanced at the raven-haired Illumi who's still sitting on the couch before he followed his sister into the kitchen.
Mitara is now preparing the ingredients she needed, when Killua entered the kitchen whistling an oddly tune.
"What are you whistling at?" she eyed him.
Killua made his whistling even louder.
Mitara glared at the silver-haired boy.
"Is your new classmate, already your boyfriend?" Killua asked teasingly.
"No, he's not my boyfriend."
"You're lying."
"Cut it out, or you'll not have any dinner tonight," Mitara devilishly warned her brother.
Killua stuck out his tongue and then dashed towards the stairs.

After they had dinner with Illumi, Killua locked up himself inside his room. He said that he still needs to finish the game Finale Fantasia Rebirth with the walkthrough Illumi gave.
Mitara brought a blanket and a pillow for Illumi so he can sleep well on the couch.
The next day… In room 3-1…
Kurapika and Mitara were already seated in their seats, when Illumi entered the classroom.
"Ohayou," Illumi greeted them.
"Ohayou, Illumi," Kurapika greeted back.
"What time did you leave my house?" Mitara whispered to Illumi when he was seated.
"Early in the morning, Mitara-chan. I didn't wake you up because I know you're still sleeping," Illumi answered.
"I see."
"By the way, thank you for everything."
"Don't mind it."
Kurapika glanced at the two of them for a while, then back to his History book.
After 15 minutes, the classes started.

Lunch break in the canteen…
When Mitara, Kurapika and Illumi went to the canteen, Gon and Killua were already there waiting for them. After they got their food, they eat merrily at their table.
Killua just keep on bragging about his favorite game, on how his hardships were paid when he finally defeated the final boss. Gon is just listening, and compliments him every now and then. The other three were just listening.
Then the Ryodan Gang entered the canteen. All of the other students who were merrily chatting while eating went silent. It seems like they should make way whenever the gang is entering the canteen.
Mitara and Kurapika paid no heed. They continue eating and Killua went on bragging about his game.
Kuroro, Phinx, Ubogin, and Pakunoda glared at Illumi when they saw the raven-haired at Mitara's table again. Hisouka is just neutral, while Shezuku, Feitan and Shalnark were already at their table.
When the Ryodan Gang was about to pass by their table, Kuroro stopped in front of them.
"Hi, Mitara-chan," he charmingly greeted the red-haired girl, as he paid no heed to the other people at the table.
"Hello," she greeted back.
"Mitara-chan, would you like to have lunch at our table?" he invited.
"Gomen, Kuroro, but I am already eating. Maybe some other time?"
"Okay," Kuroro smiled at her. Then glared at Illumi when they are about to leave.
They were about to passed by, but all of a sudden, Phinx intentionally poured the soup on his tray onto Illumi's head.
"What the?" Mitara abruptly stood up when she felt the splattered soup from Illumi who was sitting beside her.
Killua, Gon and Kurapika gaped in astonishment. While Ubogin, Pakunoda, Feitan and Shalnark laughed aloud.
"Ooooppssss! Sorry. It slipped," Phinx mockingly stated, while grinning.
"Why you?" Mitara uttered in disgust. "You should be sorry, you know."
Phinx just laughed.
Kuroro commanded the others to go to their table.
"I'm sorry, Mitara-chan. I'm sure Phinx did not do it intentionally," Kuroro said to Mitara.
"I don't think so," Mitara uttered sarcastically.
"Don't worry, it will not happen again," Kuroro said, and left them.
"Are you okay, Illumi? That soup is still hot," Mitara asked the raven-haired Illumi who's still silent.
"I'm okay, Miara-chan," Illumi answered as he managed a small smile.
"Why are they bullying you? Did you do something to them?" Gon asked.
Illumi shook his head.
"Tsk, tsk. It's one of their another tripping, Gon. You know them. They'll bully everyone who ever they wanted," Killua stated.
"But still, that's too much," Kurapika commented. Though he already had an idea why does the Ryodan Gang targeting Illumi this time.
"Come on, Illumi. Let's wash your hair. It will be sticky if you'll let the soup get dry in your hair," Mitara uttered. She pulled Illumi's hand and they dashed out of the canteen.
The three were left staring at them.
