Arrival

Everyone was still inside the nether. They were going neither slow or fast, and Killua and Gon had quickly grown bored with the lack of scenery. So, the pair had taken up talking. Right now, Gon was curious about Killua's missing brother. He had set off a year earlier to explore the world and learn by himself. It was only recently that the famous child pair had reunited their team.

"Killua," Gon called to his best friend, "What happened to Alluka?"

"I asked for a favor from Nanika. I asked Nanika to come to me if the family tried to use her.

"I suppose that makes sense."

"Yeah. I couldn't keep running with her forever, so I had to find a new way to protect her from the family." They were silent for several more minutes.

"Hey Killua, we can train each other by racing to the finish!" Killua shot up with a mischievous smirk.

"You're on!" Gon and Killua flared their auras in preparation for takeoff. Leorio reached out for the pair to stop and warn them about the dangers.

"You guys wa-!" Leorio sighed in defeat. "They're gone…" Leorio turned to his left to ask Kurapika to go after them, and shouted in frustration. "Kurapika's abandoned me too! If they go through to fast they will be seriously injured!" He ground his teeth in frustration and adjusted his glasses and he flared his own aura. He pushed off in a vain attempt to catch up. 'It's not good if we get separated!'

Leorio was forced to halt as a bright light, more radiant than any what he had encountered so far, blinded him making everything go white. The next thing he knew, he was sitting in a rocky outland. The others were nowhere to be seen.

"SERIOUSLY?!"
