Papa~ Papa~ Paparazzi~ - Lady Gaga
Hey guys! Sorry for the late update. Here is the new chapter!
Enjoy~
HXH is not mine :)
"Woah! It's huge!" Leorio said. We were in front of the chocolate house right now. As usual, we went to the entrance, signed up, and got the device. When I was about to get in to the house, a hand grabbed my shoulder from behind. I looked who it was.
"Don't overextend. Your wound might open again" Leorio said behind me.
"But I don't feel any pains anymore" I said as I looked at the bandages that applied on my left hand.
"That's because I gave you painkillers" he said.
"Okay…"
'That means… the pain will come again' I thought and sighed.
Killua and I walked to the inside of the house. I looked at the house once again from outside.
'I think it's the same with Hyurin's chocolate house. The shape, the size, everything is the same' I thought.
"See ya" I startled when Killua said that sentence. I forgot that I have to compete with him. Well, I was targeting the second treasures, though. I didn't feel like going to a 'factory'. I mean, it's really awesome to be able to get in to the 'Chocolate Factory' but still, it's just a factory. I preferred to eat buffet in the Chocolate House.
We separated from each other. As usual, I took the left and he took the right route. I thought the map was the same with Hyurin's chocolate house but it's completely different! I didn't see any room and the floor were made from ice.
'What the heck is this?' I thought when I almost slipped because of the ice. I walked slowly so that I won't fell down on the floor. I touched the wall beside me to make a grip but I felt like I pushed something.
CLICK!
I saw the chocolate wall that I touched just moved deeper than the other wall. Then, my instinct showed me that there would be a knife swing from above. I looked at behind me and I was right! The knife swung toward me and I quickly activated my 'Fairy Wing' to dodge the knife. Unfortunately, because of the icy floor, it made me move slower and did not dodge well. I got a scratch on my knee and not so long, it was bleeding.
"Aw…" I tried to suppress my pain and examined my knee. I didn't know what to do, so I just ignored the scratch. I thought it's time to use my nen. I activated my 'Fairy Sense' to see the map and memorized it right away. I quickly ran through the hall but I fall down on my butt.
Once…
I stood up again and ran. Not so long, I fall down to the front.
Twice…
I stood up again and ran. I saw the hall in front of me came to an end, and I have to take a right. I couldn't stop myself because of the icy floor, so I bumped to the wall in the end of the hall. Really, why was I this bad on ice? I can skate, but not with these high heels!
CLICK!
'Oh no…' I felt that something bad would happen. I saw the ceilings and there were knives coming to me. I quickly activated my 'Fairy Wing' again but the 'Fairy Wing' made my wound opened. I reflex deactivated my 'Fairy Wing' because of the pain and touched my left hand to suppress the pain. There was not enough time to dodge. The knives were almost hit me. I closed my eyes so I won't see what happened to me.
Then, I felt a gentle breeze through me. There was someone who carried and took me away from the knife shower. I opened to see who it was.
"Damn it, Setsu! Leorio already told you not to overextend!" Killua said to me.
"Well, sorry. I didn't think it could be like this if I use my nen" I said, still pressing my left hand.
"By the way, why are you here?" I continued.
"I was stuck in the right route, so I just tried the left route" he said.
"Hahaha… How about if I use my nen one more time?" I asked.
"No way" he replied.
"I can show you the map if I use my nen"
"You can do it?"
"Yeah, I can use 'fairy sense'. It allows me to use seismic sense when I touch chocolates"
"I see… Well, still… I won't allow you to do it, though"
"Really?"
"Hnn!"
"Are you sure?"
"I don't want you to get hurt, Setsu"
That sentence… almost gave me the wrong idea. My heart beat really loud and my body felt hot. I looked at Killua's face and just realized how fast we ran.
"Killua, is this your nen?" I asked.
"Yep. I called it 'godspeed'" he said.
"Cool! It's like my 'fairy wing'!" I said.
"Fairy wing?"
"Yeah, it's one of my nen abilities to run fast"
"Oh, I see. So that's called 'fairy wing'" when he said that, he stopped in front of a big door.
"I guess we're here" I said. I was the one who opened the door because both of his hands were busy to carry me. We came inside and saw just a plain chocolate room. Nothing inside the room.
"So… want me to search it with my nen?" I asked again.
"No. I'll find it. Stay here" he put me down. There are some risks because there might be many traps in this room. But, if it's Killua, I think he can dodge all of them easily. I saw him pushing one of the walls and many knife darted toward him. He dodged it very neatly, of course. He tried again the other one, but it's only traps.
I waited…
Waited…
Waited…
It's already 10 minutes but we still haven't found anything. Killua started to figure something. He looked down to the icy floor and put some nen into his fist. Not really much, but enough to break the icy floor. He punched the floor and the floor was cracked. He picked something inside the floor and it's the code!
"Yeah! Got it!" he said cheerfully. Then, he put the code inside his pocket.
"Let's go" he activated his nen; he quickly carried me and pushed the door behind me. Not really long after that, we already outside the house.
"ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ALL CHOCOLOVERS MEMBERS! We already have a winner for Dork City's chocolate house! The winner is… ChocoDrugs!"
"Congrats, Kill" I said while giving the device to the officer.
"Thanks" he put me down and did the same to the device.
"Killua! Congratulations!" Gon shouted from far away. He carried me again and ran toward where Gon, Leorio and Kurapika were.
"Leorio, she opened her wounds" Killua told Leorio.
"What? You look worse than this afternoon! What happened?" Leorio commented.
"Thanks to the icy floor. Now, I have more wounds" I said angrily. I still felt the pain in my left hand. I thought the painkillers that Leorio gave to me were already gone.
"Let's go to the car. I left my suitcase in the car" he said. While we were walking to the car, excluding me because Killua carried me, I moved my face closer to Killua's and whispered into his ear…
'Thank you'
*In the car*
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AA!"
"Setsu, turn your volume down!" Killua said to me while looking around. I saw many people on the street were looking at me. Maybe they thought I was kidnapped or something like that. The fact, I was hurt because Leorio just put alcohol to my wounds. I was glad that Leorio already took care of my left hand's wound. Now, I only had to bear with this knee scratch.
"Setsu, hold it, okay?" Leorio said that and then pressed cotton that smelled totally and absolutely like alcohol to my skin.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!" I shouted. My eyes were already teary and wet, which meant I almost cried. I was sitting on the edge of the rear right seat of the car; my knees were heading out the door beside me. The door was opened so that Leorio could treat the wound that was on my knee. I looked at Killua who stood beside Leorio. He was watching Leorio treating my wounds. Then, he noticed me looking at him with teary eyes.
"Sigh…" he sighed and went away. He turned around the car and opened the left rear door. He sat next to me and said…
"You want to sleep again?" he asked. I nodded.
"Kay" he said while patting his right shoulder. I rested my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes slowly. Well, my left hand felt less pain than this afternoon. Leorio already closed the wound and gave the painkillers, but the wound on my knee is really annoying. I relaxed my eyebrows that twitched since Leorio treated my left hand.
'Ignore the pain… Ignore the pain…' I thought.
Killua PoV
"I don't know how she managed to sleep" I said while seeing her calm face.
"I don't know either" Leorio confused while treating her wound. I looked around to search Gon and Kurapika.
"Where are Gon and Kurapika?" I asked Leorio.
"I guess they went to the mall nearby the park" he answered.
"Oh I see…" I looked at her sleeping face again.
"Done!" Leorio startled me. I looked at her knee and found white bandages surrounded her right knee.
"I will catch up Gon and Kurapika. Do you wanna stay in the car?" Leorio asked me.
"Yeah, I don't want to wake her up" I said while looking at Setsu who slept on my shoulder.
"Okay. Be careful. Here is the key" he threw me the car key. I caught it right away with my left hand.
"Thanks" as soon as I said that, Leorio moved Setsu's legs to the inside of the car. Then, he closed the door.
"Sigh…" I sighed. When I looked at the girl beside me, I felt something vibrate in my pocket jeans. I took out my phone and saw my ChocoLovers inbox. Well, it's pretty much about the congratulation from the GM. I took out the code that I won and put it into the account. I got 300 points right away, but still… I was second place! The current rank is like this…
1st ChocoKillers – 3500 points
2nd ChocoDrugs – 3400 points
I quickly pressed the 'home' button on my phone to go back to the main screen. Then, I pressed the lock button on the side to make it locked. I put the phone in my pocket again and looked through the window. It's already dark outside.
'I wonder what time is it' I asked myself. I took Setsu's right hand to see her wrist watch. It's 7 p.m. No wonder I was hungry. I realized that her hand was cold. I held her hand to warm it.
10 minutes passed…
I was bored. I opened the storage box in the middle of the front seats with my foot. Well, I couldn't reach it with my hand because Setsu was sleeping on my shoulder so I used my foot. I looked whether there is a snack or something, but nothing…
'This car is so boring. If I use this car, I will fill it with snacks and food' I thought. In fact, it IS my car cause I already paid for it.
20 minutes passed…
I was still bored. I looked at the car's ceiling and something like a door. I tried to slide it with my left hand. Behind that door, there is a window that cannot be open.
'Cool!' I thought. I can see the stars from here. I rested my head on the headrest behind me. Slowly, I felt sleepy and tired. Maybe it's because of the chocolate house. Before I knew, I already fall asleep.
2 hour passed…
My eyes opened a little bit. I thought the car was already moving and everybody was inside the car. Well, I was wrong. No Gon beside me, no Leorio who drove the car, or Kurapika who sat in the front seat. Just me… and…
I looked at my right. Setsu was still there, sleeping on my shoulder. I looked at her wrist watch again. It's already 9:30 p.m!
'Oh man… What the hell are they doing?' I thought.
10 minutes passed…
I tried to sleep again, but… I failed. I can't sleep anymore. I remembered the car key that Leorio gave me. I took out my 'pocky' key chain and attached it to the car key.
'TADA!' I said in my mind while hanging the key up in the air.
'Now… what?' I was bored again, didn't know what to do.
10 minutes passed…
I looked at the girl beside me. I brushed away her hair on her cheek so that I can see her clearly.
Her pale skin…
Her long eyelashes…
Her red lips...
I started to think about kissing her.
'No…' I shook my head quickly to erase that intention.
'I can't…' I thought while looking away from Setsu. I felt my face hot and I knew that I was blushing.
10 minutes passed…
This time, I had regained my calm. I was not blushed anymore so I looked at Setsu again. Her face was so close to mine, like… 3 centimeters away, which made my heart went pit-a-pat.
Deg Deg…
Deg Deg…
Deg Deg…
'Argh! Why am I like this? What's wrong with me?!' I facepalmed while complaining in my mind. I looked at her again. Maybe it's not me who understand what's going on, but my body was. My body moved by its own. I touched her cheek and slowly bent my face near hers.
FLASH!
'What was that?' I quickly looked sharply to the trees beside the car. But I didn't find anything except darkness.
Setsu PoV
FLASH!
I felt like I heard a camera blitz. I thought that someone took a picture of me while sleeping so I slowly opened my eyes. What I found at the first time was silver hair.
"Killua…" I rubbed my eyes. I saw him startled when I called him.
"You're awake?" he asked me.
"Yeah"
"Sorry…"
"No, it's not because of you. I heard this camera sound. I thought someone took a picture of me so I just woke up"
"Yeah, I heard that sound too but I didn't see anyone" he said. I looked around and noticed familiar faces walked toward our car.
"Look! They're back. Where were they?" I asked Killua.
"They're from the mall"
"What?! Why don't you tell me? I wanna go!" I became a spoiled brat. Somehow, Killua didn't say anything. He just looked at me and played with my hair.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" I asked.
"…" he didn't answer. His eyes looked a little bit disappointed.
"…" I remained silent. He still kept playing with my hair. I didn't know what he was doing but it made me felt uneasy.
"Ummm… Please, say something" I said uncomfortably.
"…" still… no answer.
"Sigh…" I sighed.
'Strange' I thought.
Killua PoV
'It was a camera. I'm sure. Absolutely, 100%, sure' I thought.
"Look! They're back. Where were they?" Setsu asked me.
"They're from the mall" I answered quickly.
"What?! Why don't you tell me? I wanna go!" I ignored her and played her hair.
'I didn't see a glimpse of someone. Maybe he did it with some kind of nen? But I didn't sense any nen, though' I was in a deep thought.
"Hey! What are you doing?!"
'Or maybe he did it with some kind of technologies that cannot be seen with bare eyes? I can see in the dark and I'm sure there was no one there! But…'
"Ummm… Please, say something"
'Something that I am certain is that I could hear the blitz, so he must be near. Second, he either must be running fast or use something to make him invisible' I was still in the deep thought.
"Sigh…" Setsu sighed.
'Third, why is he targeting Setsu and I? Wait… Maybe it is…' I come to a realization.
"We're back!" I heard Gon said while opening the left rear door.
"Gon! Why don't you invite us too? I wanna goooo!" Setsu became a spoiled brat again.
"Eh? But you're hurt and I don't think Killua want to leave you alone in the car" Gon said. Then, Setsu glared at me. As I saw Leorio got into the car, I said…
"Leorio! Let's go to Uni City" I said quickly.
"Huh? Why? It's already late. Let's go to the hotel first"
"NO!" I shouted. As a result, everybody looked at me in confusion.
"Ermm… I want to get the code as fast as possible" I lied. They looked at each other and agreed.
"Okay… If that's what you want" Leorio said. I looked at my right and noticed Setsu was looking at me. She looked me in a weird way.
"What?" I asked.
"You're hiding something" I shocked when she said that.
"Everyone has a secret, Setsu" I said and she finally gave in. Leorio started the engine and everyone wore the seatbelt right away. When the car moved away from the street, I observed the surrounding. I caught a glimpse of someone that I knew on the top of the building that was near where we parked our car.
"Quickly, please!" I said to Leorio.
"You really want that code that much?" Leorio asked me through the rear mirror.
"Yes!" I acted like a 'chocomaniac' with a big smile and shining eyes. When Leorio took his glance back to the road, I was back to my old self. I looked back again to the building, but I didn't find anyone. He was going to catch us!
'I knew it! It was them!'
