Chapter 7: Rescue Mission
Remind me how I got caught up in any of this again? Not important. Anyways, Shalnark now had control of my body and Kurapika's body, and since no member of the Ryodan could make contact with "Danchou," he sent Kurapika and I to do the dirty work.
But before that, he decided to humiliate me.
He made me sit down and beg in front of each of the members of the Ryodan. Most of them spat on me, or laughed at me.
But the girl was quite nice to me.
As I knelt down in front of her, she bent down, eye level to me and talked.
"Hello! My name is Shizuku. How are you?" Shizuku asked.
"Pfft...You're actually talking to her?" Phinks asked.
"She's a nice person," Shizuku said, and then turning to me. "Get up."
She tried to pull me up, but my muscles wouldn't let me.
"Shalnark! Make her stand up," Shizuku pleaded.
And he did. That was awfully nice of him.
"Oh! I want to go with them to see Danchou!" Shizuku exclaimed.
"You can't remember? One of the conditions was that Danchou can't come in contact with us," Machi said.
"That's okay! I'll just accompany them! They can be the only ones that go to Danchou!" Shizuku said again.
"That's a good point actually," Shalnark said. "Shizuku and I will go just to make sure things don't get out of hand."
No one felt like arguing.
"That's settled then," Shalnark said. "Okay, how are we going to go?"
"The girl can produce those lances...remember? They can fly you there," Feitan said. "But there are only four."
"Really? Huh. You're more useful then I thought," Shalnark said.
"Okay, I'll ride with Meiko, the nen remover will be behind us, follower by the chain guy and you at the end, okay?" Shizuku asked.
"That's not bad. Let's go," Shalnark exclaimed as he made me summon four lances.
I got on first, followed by Shizuku and the other 3 people each mounted a lance and we took off into the east.
