After a few days she finally came to visit. But she walked in at the wrong time. There stood Pakunoda holding her gun at them. Tsumi stood there at the door frozen solid. When she fired Tsumi couldn't move. She watched as the nen bullets pierced their heads. Then turned her attention to Paku. Falling to the cold hard ground. Forever sleeping, hands cold, not even a good bye. Tsumi staggered over to Paku. She held the hand of her lifeless body. Tsumi did not cry nor did she say anything.
After Shizuku had shut her eyes Tsumi left without a word. Walking outside in the rain she seemed lost and hopeless. Nearby Gon and Killua saw her. Gon called out to her but she continued walking aimlessly. They ran up to her." Umm..Is something wrong?" Thats when she started to cry.*Hic* *Hic* Gon and Killua panicked." Did we say something wrong?! Ah hurry you might catch a cold!" They grabbed her arms and took them to their hotel.
She dried off and sat on the sofa quietly. "Did something happen between you guys?.." She nodded slowly." Will you tell us what happened." She looked up at Gon and smiled." She left without saying goodbye...Thank you for taking me here. Ill just take a cab home." She bowed deeply and went outside. The day of the auction for Greed Island they happened to meet Phinks and Feitan. After finding out what had happened to Paku Gon and Killua finally understood what Tsumi meant.
Before leaving Feitan asked," Did Tsumi come to you guys?" Gon hesitated to speak. But gathered up the courage and spoke sternly," She did. And Tsumi cried. But you weren't there as her friends to comfort her." Feitan smiled and looked down." I see..what did she say." Killua glared at him," She left without saying goodbye..That was all." Without another word Feitan and Phinks walked away.
After stealing Greed Island they used the game and went to Greed Island. While Phinks and Feitan were playing Tsumi payed them a visit. Shalnark shot up and smiled cheerfully," Tsumi!" She smiled at him quickly and went to Paku's grave. For a brief moment she was quiet and placed Paku's favorite bouquet on her grave." Sleep soundly Paku nee-chan.." Tsumi stood up and placed the spider coin on the table.
"Whats this Tsumi?" Nobunaga said. She looked at him seriously." Im leaving the Troupe." Franklin tried to knock some sense into her." Tsumi why all of a sudden? You know Paku and Uvo would-" she started crying and yelled at them," Paku and Uvo died to protect you all! To keep you safe and alive! Why?! Because you were their friends, their family! They would never want to see you die! So why?! Why wont YOU understand to stop this! Only more people will die!" Nobunaga sat up," You can leave." Machi looked at him confused.
"I understand your grief Tsumi. But, you cant escape as long as you wear the mark of the Spider." Tsumi wiped her tears and smirked." I knew you might say something like that." She dug into her sleeve and took out a bottle of acid. An acid that burns only skin. She pulled up her kimono and poured the acid over her tattoo. Her flesh began burning and her tattoo disappeared. Blood ran down her leg." The next time we meet. It will be as enemies." Their eyes widened and Shalnark jumped off his seat panicking.
"TSUMI?! Are you crazy! Quickly we need to treat your wound!" She smiled softly and tears began to stream down her rosy cheeks." Goodbye everyone." She walked out limping leaving a small trail of blood. Nobunaga laughed." Lets see how it will turn out." Just then Feitan and Phinks came back from the game." Yo. Did Tsumi visit?" Phinks looked around. Nobunaga pointed to the trail of blood. Feitan pulled out his sword and pointed it to his neck," WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HER?!"
Franklin yelled at him," Calm down Feitan! She did it on her own accord. Feitan lowered his sword." What do you mean?" "She left the Troupe. Tsumi poured acid on her tattoo and left refusing for Shal to treat it." Feitan put his sword away and walked up to the top floor roof. He sat at the edge. The wind blew through his hair and the moon was full.
*FlashBack*
Tsumi and Feitan sat at the edge on the rooftop side by side. She rested her head on his shoulder holding his hand. It was abnormally cold. Although she didnt seem to mind. "Feitan.." "Hm?" She slowly drifted asleep." I love you.." Feitan carried her down to where he usually rests away from the rest of the members in the fourth buildings third floor. Feitan carefully placed her in his bed. He watched her sleep quietly for a moment then without taking off his bandana kissed her.
Not noticing he awoke her. When he pulled away she shot up. "Meanie.." She leaned in and pulled his bandana off. They kissed for awhile. Tsumi felt like melting and her heart beat increased. They pulled away from each other trying to catch their breath." Feitan, I love you~" She smiled brightly and hugged him.
*Flashback End*
Feitan sighed heavily." Tsumi...how could you leave without letting me give you this?.." Feitan clung tightly onto the spider necklace that he intended to give her..
The next day Tsumi paid a visit to Gon and Killua. The atmosphere was dense and quiet. No one spoke because it seemed to awkward. "Um..i just came to tell you that the Troupe will be also going to Greed Island. Most likely Shalnark will be there and a new recruit to replace Hisoka..im not sure about me because i left so suddenly.." Gons eyes widened," You left the Troupe?! When?!" She sat into the back of her chair," Just yesterday...After Paku died i felt it was better to stop killing...i dont want to lose them..they were my family.."
Killua looked at her with a sorrowful stare. She stood up and bowed," Well thats all. Ill be going now." Gon grabbed her wrist,"Will you help us if we call to you in the future?" She smiled at him," Yes." When she left Killua questioned Gon," Do you trust her?" Gon smiled," Yes. She truly means it when she doesn't want to lose her family."
Tsumi returned to her hotel. It was a very stressful week so she went to take a nice bath. The hotel was very fancy and expensive. Unlike the other Troupe members she used money from her missions to spoil herself. She filled the bath tub with hot water and soaked herself."I miss Feitan so much..." She dipped her head into the water and came out. She blew bubbles and washed her hair, then did what you would usually do when bathing.
She wrapped the towel around her and walked out. The steam left the bathroom quickly as she opened the door. She went into the bedroom and got changed. Tsumi wore a white long sleeved button up and white shorts. When she came out there Feitan sat, on the opened window sill. He got off and sat down casually on the sofa. Tsumi sighed and sat beside him. Feitan kept quiet. Tsumi placed her hand on his cheek and kissed him deeply. Tears began to fall as she slowly parted from his lips.
"Im sorry Feitan...this will be our last kiss..." His eyes widened in disbelief. Tsumi stood up and bowed to him," Thank you for visiting me Fei-chan~!" When she stood up straight she smiled brightly at him. Feitan looked down." I see..." He walked over to the door and left. Her smiled began to fade and she fell to her knees sobbing." Im sorry Feitan!... I really am..Tsumi loves you...Tsumi really does.. Uwaah!..*Hic* *hic*"
The next morning she awoke to the sound of knocking. Tsumi staggered to the door and opened it. There Gon and Killua stood. They smiled brightly and held out a box. Tsumi forced a smile and invited them in. She prepared tea. "Tsumi can you bring some plates and forks? We bought you strawberry cake!" She placed the tea and plates on the coffee table." Umm why are you guys here today?" Gon munched on the cake," Well we're worried about you..ever since you told us you left the troupe..What will you do about living expenses?"
Tsumi chuckled," No need to worry Gon. I have already dealt with it. Please be careful in Greed Island." Killua smiled," Don't worry! We'll be back! Call us if you're ever in trouble." Tsumi pinched him," Trouble?!" Killua teased her," We know how clumsy and childish you are!" Tsumi pushed them out the door," Okay! okay i get it! Promise to come back safe?" She held out both her pinkies. Their pinkies entwined," Promise!"
