A/N: Ha! Sorry for the loooonnngggg~ update. I just gain my consciousness, ups, I mean my ideas back :D
Summary: First failure in escaping.
"Go back to the west, the person you're searching for had already left."
"And when you reach there, you'll meet him."
'A dream again...' Kuroro let out a moaning sound as his mind spurred into consciousness. Bits and pieces of information flew into his brain, one by one, until the strange, just-woke-up-where-am-I feeling had completely vanished. A shaft of light streamed through the window, its blinds pulled about an inch upwards. Allowing his eyes to creak open a tiny bit, he noted that the room looked drafty with only one light on. Loud voices were piercing through the numb haze of his brain.
Kuroro's vision was still a little woozy, the numerous books on the shelves blurring as he slowly let his eyelids flutter open. The voices still carried on. Kuroro immediately dropped his neck back and rested it on the armrest, groaning inside. He didn't care much about what they were talking about, he only cared about the fact that they are casuing a chaos and he can't prolong his nap. Try as he may, he couldn't go back to sleep. Forcefully, he stood up- too fast- grumbling and holding his head as the world spun momentarily before everything stood upon a standstill again.
When the noises are lowering down, he could find himself thinking about his dream once more time. 'Meet him? That old lady...'
'Seriously..'
CCRRAASSHHHH...!
The raven-haired guy stopped walking as a loud noise suddenly burst out. He stared at the door over his shoulder curiously.
'Looks like the noises came from the room where i kept that kuruta...' he pushed his bangs back. 'What are the others doing?'
'It's dark... dark...'
'Yeah.. It's dark...'
'Da-dare...?'
'No one.'
"..."
'You're captured.'
'By who...?'
'The spiders...'
Kurapika started to recall what happened the moment before. Light Nostrade gave him a task to do, he needed to get a gem, known as 'Crystal Jade' home. And then...
His eyes snapped open when he at last recalled meeting someone he never expected to meet again...
The way when he's captured, when he's drugged, when's he's pushed to the bed. His body was all numb. NUMB.
'Yes.. I remembered being captured by their leader...'
'Do you...?'
'What?'
'Escape?'
A moment he was planning on escaping, but that's impossible. No window, the doors are locked. Plus, they're not normal people, they're the Spiders.
'There is one.'
'Huh?'
'Look above you.'
There is, a small window, hidden between the spider webs.
He smiled. 'I can destroy them with my chains.'
Quickly, he took his chance while he still could. He controlled his force and calculated how much strength he would need to push his feet off the tiles and onto the windowsill. It was about six feet up and there was only a minuscule space provided to land upon- That is, if he landed. If he didn't, he predicted that the worst blow would probably he directed to his head and fall would send him straight down, towards the hard tile. Done thinking, Kurapika jumped agilely, cutting through the air and landing on the sill with a thump.
'Great.' he thought.
Now he just needed to break the damned window with his chain, then he could escape his hellhole, for forever. But as he readied himself and his hand moved, a string shot through the air. It slipped over Kurapika's left arm, looped through it three times, and did the same to his right wrist. It traveled around his mid-riff, effectively bounding both his arms to his stomach and preventing the chains from touching the window and lashed out at the wall instead, only centimeters away from the windowpane.
He sensed a presence behind him.
"Escaping? chain-user...?" A pink-haired girl said.
Machi's strings were on Kurapika body, bounding him from his freedom. He was pushed downwards and hit the rough floor hard.
When he was about to regain his posture, Nobunaga's sword tip have already reach his chin.
"You're slow, still in the effect of the drug? I don't think so..." The samurai smirked.
He let his swords tilted Kurapika's chin for him. "Hey chain-user, you're really the one who killed Ubougin..? Ha!" Nobunaga let go of his sword so that they will fall to the ground gently, he reached for the blonde's collar and pulled them up.
"I've been aching to kill you! I wonder why Danchou won't let me!"
Kurapika's eyes widen in horror. 'D.. Danchou? Their leader is still alive even after being with his comrades? How is this possible...!?'
"BUT NOW I DON'T CARE!"
"Akh..." Kurapika gave out a sound when the samurai pulled his collar harder.
"I'll just have to kill you now. You're chain in Danchou's heart have been lifted, there's nothing more to worry about. I'll just have my punishment later." he laughed.
"Nobunaga, Danchou will not be pleased by your actions!" Machi added.
"Uruse Machi. Don't you hate him too? This guy that have killed two of our comrades!"
She frowned. "Do what you want. I'm not joining."
"Huh... Then if you say so..." he smirked.
The samurai moved both his hands towards Kurapika's neck.
"Akh..." the blonde closed one of his eyes, which now has turn into deep scarlet in colour.
"You...!" Nobunaga strengthen his grip. "You bullshit...! -have killed one of my precious friend. I'll kill you ! Kill you!"
"Khu... ugghh..."
"Go on. Suffer. Suffer!" Nobunaga evilly chuckled through his gritted teeth. "I WANT TO SEE YOU SUFFER!" his eyes blazed with fury.
"Danchou will surely punish you hard for disobeying his order." Machi said, still emotionless.
"Shut up, Ma-" he turned his body around. Through his peripheral vision, a figure behind Machi caught his eye.
"Nobunaga."
"Da-danchou..."
"Release him."
"Wh-?"
"The kuruta-boy." Kuroro said straightly.
"Ck...!" Kurapika was then free from Nobunaga's grip, who is still unhappy with his current position. "I don't get ypu, Danchou! Why don't we kill this chain-bastard right away?"
"Nobunaga." Kuroro said calmly but had startled Nobunaga, he shot a glare at the samurai.
"Fi-fine!" He shouted and leave, heading towards his room.
As son as the samurai leaves, Kuroro returned his gaze on the blonde.
"You alright?"
Kurapika's still glow scarlet and he couldn't stop them. He simply put his head down, not wanting to see that bastard...!
Kuroro twitched one of his eyebrow and mvoes forward. Every stop Kuroro took, Kurapika aimed to equal the distance by slightly shaking his head and moving one step back. The kuruta took three light steps before the strings began to tug violently against him, tightening itself around his body. If he took a step, the strings would tug in place, it's edges beginning to leave their marks on Kurapika's skin. So he stopped struggling before the wounds would form.
Kuroro come closer to him and tilted his chin to face him.
"You are in no position to act stubborn."
"..."
"You're my prisoner now."
'This bastard...!' Kurapika thought, but still didn't utter a single word.
"Hey, am talking to you."
Kurapika's mouth didn't speak up; he let his blazing scarlet eyes did all the talking as he glared sharply at Kuroro.
With this Kuroro sighed. "Machi I'm taking him to my room."
"Hai, Danchou."
In a flash, Kuroro hold Kurapika's by arm and carried him in his shoulder, leaving the blonde in a shock state.
"Wh-!"
"Finally, you talked."
"Let go-!"
"I will. As soon as we arrived my room."
After they finally entered Kuroro's room, Kurapika suddenly struggled, causing Kuroro to almost lose his balance. All he do is to throw Kurapika towards the bed and head back for the door. Locking it.
Next he head for a table beside a bed, he took out a handkerchief and a bottle that contained something unknown. He spilled some of them to the handkerchief and placed them back into his pocket.
Right after placing them back inside, he headed towards the bed, where Kurapika is sitting. The less the distance there is between them, the harder Kurapika's heart pounded.
"About Nobunaga... Did he hurt you anywhere?"
"Ck..."
"Answer me, chain-user."
"It's none of your business!" He looked annoyed.
"None of mine, huh?" Kuroro clenched his fist and moves forward. He pushed Kurapika to fall to the bed by chest and grabbed both of his wrists and pushed them to the mattress.
"You-!"
When Kuroro's head moves nearer to he's, he decided to turn his head to his right side and kuroro noticed that there's bruises in his neck.
'Maybe this is Nobunaga's doing' Kuroro thought.
He took out the earlier handkerchief from his pocket and used them on Kurapika's injury. When the blonde felt a sudden pain in his neck, he turn back and met Kuroro's eyes, giving him a face of what-did-you-do.
Kuroro smirk, "Turn your head again, i need to treat your injury."
"Will not!" The blonde said and started kicking the man above him.
This took quite a moment for Kuroro to trap the blonde's leg with his and at last he was able to insert one foor between Kurapika's leg. He pushed the blonde deeper into the mattress forcefully, knowing that he got no other choice, Kurapika obey while turning back his head to his right side.
"Good."
10 minutes after his injury was treated, Kuroro still haven't let him go. In the contrary, Kuroro tighten his grip on Kurapika's both wrist.
"Ugh..."
"Now that your injury had been treated, i need you to sleep.
"Hu-huh?"
Kuroro took out another handkerchief and this time he lead it towards his face, covering both Kurapika's nose and lip.
'Wh...?'
Once Kurapika had sniffed the smell, his brain went numb. His tensed muscles lost their strength and his eyes flickered left and right until finally they closed.
Kuroro looked at the sleeping figure attentively. "That contains toxic."
Kuroro get up to have some water to drink and some flashback comes into his mind.
"Go back to west"
"You'll meet him."
Kuroro rubbed his head and glare at the sleepin figure again. He head for him, slowly stroking his face gently and grabbed his chin.
'Is "him" him?' he thought.
He heaved a big king-drawn sigh.
'That's impossible.' he thought.
"This guy made my life a living hell. And there is no damned way I am going to forget this so easily. I'll take what's mine. I'll revenge."
Next:
"To the east, huh?"
"Master Lara, please tell my fortune."
"I'm finding you throughout the island...!"
"I see... You got a sad past."
"Nen...?"
"That person had already left for west few hours ago..."
"Don't say anything or I'll kill you..."
"That one person that you will meet..."
