A big thank you to Anime lover, Just a Cadbury and all silent readers!
Anime lover – Don't worry about it. Reviews seemed to have died down and I'm beginning to think people are too afraid to give a bad one, or constructive criticism. So don't worry if you can't review. I'm sure your trip will be fine!
Just a Cadbury - Welcome back dear!
New Picture of Mishka (in Auction outfit) up on profile! Also! Do you guys want a special Valentine's chapter? I'll probably make it a new story entirely so that it doesn't get mixed with these chapters, and I'm not entirely sure how I'd do it but do you guys want one? Let me know in the reviews!

Whew.


We had been on this boat for what seemed like forever. Actually, it was a very good few weeks. Killua had once again changed his outfit. He owned more clothes then I had ever seen anyone own at one time! Now he wore a red tank top with a weird neckless that looked like a bullet with feathers attached. Black arm-elbow warmer…things on his elbows with green and dark green stripped three quarter length shorts. He also wore blue sandals. I've never actually seen a boy own so many clothes, it was kind of strange; seeing as me and Gon stuck to our normal outfits. I didn't know the journey was going to be this long; I ended up borrowing reading material from various crew members, muttering to myself things to myself. Of course, Killua teased me for it, something along the lines of "You're acting a lot like Kurapika" and then I'd retaliate with something like "I'm only borrowing a book I'm really bored!" and he'll retort "That's all your brother did in Trick Tower when we were stuck in the room; read". Then we'd glare at each other and Gon was the one who ended up splitting the two of us up. And that's how my journey went on this boat to date. It would probably be like this for the last two weeks until we met up with my big brother and Leorio once more.

The sky was shining and bright; the rain had stopped so I was glad. Gon and Killua climbed on top of the highest sail rafters as I stayed on the floor, sitting on the deck with my legs crossed reading a book I had borrowed from another crew member. They tried getting me to climb up; but what if I fell?! That's a long height to fall from!
"Hey, Mishka! We're near Yorknew!" I heard Gon yell down to me. I looked up from my book, screwing my eyes tightly closed as the sun got into them. Opening them slowly I looked up at him focusing my eyes, taking in the words he had said and smiled widely.
"Really?!" I shouted back up surprised. Gon nodded his head as Killua looked down smirking.
"Come up here and you'll see for yourself!" He shouted down. I glared at him slightly and shook my head quickly.
"No!" I shouted back up to him simply.

I closed the book I was reading and placed it on the floor next to me. Standing up I patted down my dress tabard and walked over quickly to the side of the boat, placed both my hands onto the side and leaned forward. There was a massive city with lots of tall buildings; it looked huge! My eyes went wide with excitement, making me jump up and down on the spot slightly.
"I get to see big brother soon!" I shouted excitedly, throwing my arms into the air and jumping up and down as I looked at the huge city with a wide smile.
I heard a craw in the sky and looked up from the city. There was an eagle flying overhead. I stopped bouncing on the balls of my feet and furrowed my brows slightly; eagles didn't fly all the way out to see like this did they? It began flying down towards the boat. I watched it swoop across the sky over to where Killua and Gon were. Turning on my feet I saw Killua stand up and hold his arm out for the eagle to land on. It landed on his arm warmer. I couldn't help but wince slightly, it seemed so painful, I mean they had very sharp claws after all! I walked back over to the sail poles they were standing on and looked up.
"What is it?" I shouted up making the two look down to me. Killua smirked once more.
"Come up and find out!" He shouted down again making me shake my head quickly. No way was I going up there!

Killua had refused to tell me what the eagle was carrying for the rest of the boat trip. The boat docked allowing us to quickly get off. Killua took something off the eagles' leg and pushed his arm into the air allowing the bird of prey to take flight back to wherever it came from.
"We should go to the library so we can visit the URL." Killua said, gripping the metal cylinder tightly in his hand. I looked at him questionably as Gon nodded his head. To me they were speaking some sort of code.

We began looking for a library and eventually managed to find one in this ginormous city. Gon sat at the computer as me and Killua stood behind him; Killua with a hand on the back of Gon's chair with the other on his hip. Gon looked up at me from his seat, smiling widely. Gon typed in the URL Killua had given him. That's when it clicked. It must have been the URL that Killua's brother said he'd send.
"This is the website for Hunters?" Gon asked as we looked at the splash screen. It didn't seem very impressive or brightly coloured; but then again it was only used by Hunters so why would they be interested in that stuff?
"Yeah, I've heard that Hunters worldwide post information here." Killua explained. I looked at the website wide eyed; there was probably a lot of information here.
"Worldwide? Wow…" Gon said looking to Killua then looking back at the screen.
"There must be so much information we can get from here." I said to them, staring at the screen wide eyed. Gon clicked on something to enter the website, when a box came up.
"Please swipe your Hunter Licence, and enter your licence code." The voice said to us. Gon looked up to me, a concentrated look on his face.
"Can I borrow your licence?" He asked me. I nodded my head and began digging through my bag. I found my Hunter Licence in the inside pocket. Pulling it out I handed it to Gon who swiped it through the machine and then typed in the code. We had agreed back at his house that it would be better to use mine as it would look like if I was gathering information about the Phantom Troupe; so in a way it kept us safe. Gon handed me back my card as we watched the screen.

I kept my Licence tightly in my hand as the screen showed a pair of swing doors opening up, letting us fully into the site. Inside it looked like a bar full of cowboys.
"Put the cursor on the bartender." Killua said to Gon. Gon moved the cursor onto a man behind the bar dressed in a white shirt and black waist coat.
"What kind of information would you like?" The bartender said to us. Gon clicked him, bringing up a massive window full of text. I looked at it wide eyed with Gon jumping slightly at all the information.
"Wow! There's so much!" Gon said surprised as I nodded my head agreeing with him.
"I guess Hunters like helping each other out a lot." I said to him staring at the screen myself.
"Select the game category." Killua said to him, getting over the surprise of all the information. Gon scrolled down the wall of text until Killua stopped him.
"There it is. Greed Island." Killua said. Gon moved the cursor onto the link for Greed Island and clicked it, making the bartender speak once more.
"It will cost twenty million Jenny." The bartender said to us. Gon pulled a long face and furrowed his brows.
"Twenty million…" He said in disbelief. I frowned myself, furrowing my own brows.
"They'll help each other out for a price…" I said, trailing off with a slightly sigh.
"So they won't give out the information for free. Well, we don't really have a choice." Killua said as he stood up straight and glared a little bit at the screen. Me and Gon looked at Killua as he spoke. Gon looked at me, I nodded my head. It was going to come out of my bank funds as it was my card… Well I didn't mind really. Gon looked back at the screen and began typing on the keyboard.
"Deposit twenty million…" Gon spoke as he typed and pressed enter. We watched the screen closely, nothing happened for a few seconds. Suddenly it started shining a bright light and dropped a lot of pressure into the air. It felt like aura was leaking out of the screen and into everything at the library.
"I can feel aura coming from the monitor!" Gon said as the light engulfed us.

We were taken somewhere. I looked around; it looked like we were taken into the website itself. I still had a tight grip on my Hunter card and hastily shoved it back inside the inside pocket of my bag. Gon and Killua looked around themselves, not seeming as fazed by this as me.
"I guess only Nen users can enter this site." Killua said. We looked forward. We were standing in front of the bar, well Gon was sitting on the bar stool me and Killua were standing either side of him. The bartender looked down at us, keeping a smile on his face. Now that we were up close to him I could see him better. We wore a black bowtie and had brown hair.
"Okay, now listen carefully. Greed Island is a game created by Nen practitioners." The bartender said. We looked at him in surprise, people of Nen created Greed Island? I wasn't expecting to hear that; not one bit.
"Apparently, there were multiple creators, but no one knows their objective. They put Nen into all one hundred copies of the game. When you start the game, the Nen activates, pulling the player inside the game." The bartender explained to us. That was a weird thing; did all games do that? Or was it just Greed Island? It sounded like Greed Island only did that; either way it sounded like a pretty complex and complicated game.
"Inside the game?" Gon repeated after him, taking in the information.
"Only Nen practitioners can play the game. And as long as the player stays alive in the game, it will continue to run, even if the console is unplugged. It will stop if the player dies." The bartender explained to us further as he poured purple and green liquid into a metal cup. The game sounded…what was the word…hard-core? That word sounds silly! Greed Island sounds pretty intense, only ending if you die. I watched the bartender place a lid onto the metal cup. He picked it up and began shaking it; mixing the liquids he poured in together.
"One person who owned the game hired fifty Hunters to give it a shot, but none of them ever came back." The bartender said to us, looking at us continuously as he shook the metal flask. He removed the lid and began pouring the mixed liquids into a glass full of ice I hadn't notice him pull out. The liquid was now bright red.
"I hear that you can return if you find a save point." He said to us and pushed the glass forward towards Gon.

I thought about his words. Killua crossed his arms as me and Gon looked at him for an answer, Killua always had one; so it only made sense.
"Is that true?" Gon asked him. Killua kept the serious look on his face as he answered Gon's question.
"This information is from the Hunter website. It's gotta be accurate." Killua said to us. I nodded my head at his statement. Gon looked forward once more and reached for the glass with the bright red liquid. I looked at Gon panicked. We're too young to drink! What is he thinking?! We'll get in trouble if people found out he drank alcohol at a bar, even if it's just a website one we'll still get in trouble. I fidgeted on the spot, furrowing my brows as the bartender spoke once more. However, Gon's hand went right through the glass. I sighed in relief and looked back at the bartender
"At the Yorknew City auction, seven copies of Greed Island will be up for sale. The lowest bid is eight point nine billion Jenny." The bartender said to us, keeping the smile on his face. We looked at him with wide eyes; that was so much money! Where would anyone get that much money?!
"Eight point nine billion?!" Gon questioned the bartender.
"The price has shot up!" Killua shouted, throwing his head back and scratching the top of his hand with his hands.
"Why is gaming so expensive?!" I said shocked as I frowned widely and furrowed my brows.
"That's three billion more than the retail price!" Killua shouted, carrying on with his rant as Gon dropped his head and I sighed, furrowing my brows even more. It seemed like this game was going to be a dream forever than an actual thing.
"Difficulty of obtainment is G-rank." The bartender said, making the three of us look at him once more' serious looks crossing Gon and Killua's face as a interested and questioning one crossed mine. Killua leaned forward with a hand leaning on the bar.
"The game is considered a legend, but there are plenty of copies. If you have enough money, it's relatively easy to procure." The bartender said to us. I furrowed my brows once more that was still a lot of money; no one had that money to spare on games. I think I'd stick to books they were much cheaper and better anyway…Killua's right I am turning into my brother! I pulled a face at the thought. Killua stood up straight and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Hmm, a G…Lower than I expected." Killua muttered to us as he shifted his weight from one foot to another in thought. Gon smirked to himself widely, a determined look at the bartender.

I felt aura once more. This time it felt like I was being pushed away. I blinked and found myself back in front of the computer once more; not inside the website. That was a weird experience that was for sure; I didn't know if I wanted to experience that again.
"Still, the money is a big problem." Killua said as I nodded my head agreeing with him.
"Even with all our money together we don't have even close to that." I said to them, furrowing my brows slightly. Maybe that was a good thing; so much money on a game. Silence fell between us as Gon turned around on the seat slightly, looking up at Killua. Me and Killua looked at Gon as he spoke.
"Hey, can we participate in the auction?" Gon questioned him. I watched Killua as he placed a hand on his hip and began looking at Gon with a serious and stern look.
"They're starting at eight point nine billion! That's out of our league." Killua said, closing his eyes and waving the other hand in the air, as if fanning his face. Gon shook his head, not fazed by Killua's attitude one bit.
"No, I mean by selling stuff." Gon said to him. Killua looked back at him.
"Selling?" He questioned and suddenly snapped his fingers, smiling widely.
"That's it!" Killua said keeping the wide smile.
"We can look for treasure, and then auction it off." Gon suggested. I thought about it and then nodded my head quickly, agreeing with the idea.
"That sounds like the best way!" I said, smiling widely and lacing my hands behind my back slightly. Killua grabbed the air and smirked at me and Gon.
"Okay! We can start with the eight hundred million we earned at Heaven's Arena and go from there." Killua said as me and Gon nodded our heads.

Killua walked to the laptop next to Gon, so I followed his league and walked to the other one next to Gon. I pulled out the chair and sat down, pulling my bag into my lap as I watched Killua quickly.
"First, we'll start with online flea markets and auction websites and see what we can dig up." Killua said as he removed the laptop from the table and brought it over next to Gon. He pulled up a chair as I did the same. I held onto the laptop for dear life, I didn't want to break it and drop it; that would be bad. Once I placed the laptop down next to Gon I grabbed my chair and pulled it over, sitting down next to him.
"We'll increase our money, and get ourselves a copy of Greed Island!" Killua said. Me and Gon nodded our heads, smiling widely at Killua.
"Yeah!" We both said and then went straight to looking for treasures online.

We looked for treasures on flea markets and online auction houses. Killua rang various people about items as he was the only one with a mobile phone while me and Gon sent out emails to people about items. We found items and showed each other excited and brought them. When we found a really good item we stood up and high fived each other before joining our hands and smiling widely, or in Killua's case smirking, at each other.

The day had gone quickly and in the end we left the library. We all brought juice in a can from the library vending machine. Exiting the library the three of us walked down the steps and took residence on the middle set. I sighed as I looked at the can in my hands, furrowing my brows. Killua took a long drink of his juice can as Gon stared at the floor with furrowed brows. It…hadn't gone as well as we thought it had.
"How much do we have left?" Gon asked Killua, making me bring my head to look at him as well. Killua stopped drinking and looked away, looking agitated and annoyed. He looked back at us after thinking to himself.
"Combined, we're at ten point eighty four million." Killua said to us. The three of us looked forward and sighed heavily to ourselves, closing our eyes. We spent a lot of money, nearly all of it. At first, we were making a profit and then it went downhill from there.
"Damn… Initially, we were making a profit." Killua complained as he threw his empty juice can into the bin that was some distance away from us. Gon looked at Killua, furrowing an eyebrow at him as Killua stared at the bin. I took a sip of my drink as I listened to Gon speak.
"That's why I said we should only use trustworthy public sites." Gon said to him. Killua pushed his shoulders together slightly as he looked at Gon from the corner of his eyes.
"I couldn't help it! Only the risky sites our profitable. Besides, it was Mishka who was going on most of the risky sites and not checking the information." Killua said. I swallowed my drink quickly and down the wrong hole making me cough. I banged my chest with my hand forcing my juice down my throat as I looked at him glaring with knitted brows. Gon and Killua both looked at me, Gon knitting his brows together with Killua looking at me annoyed.
"I don't use computers often and today was my first time on the internet by myself so you can't blame me!" I pointed out to him. The three of us looked forward again and sighed deeply to ourselves, closing our eyes. We opened our eyes and stared at the city, watching the sunset from the stairs we were sitting on.
"It isn't working…" Gon said disappointedly. Me and Killua nodded our heads, agreeing with Gon. Today was ending badly for the three of us.

With our day coming to an end, we decided to try and find a hotel with empty rooms so we could sleep for the night safely. The three of us stood up after mopping on the stairs some more. I took Gon's empty can and walked over to the bin; throwing away both our cans then walked back over to the two. With that, we left the library steps and began looking in Yorknew City for a hotel to spend the night, or two, or two weeks; I guess it depended on if we liked the hotel or not.


Author note: Short chapter because I suck so much right now. I promise I'll try not to do too many of these short chapters, I just really don't like combining two episodes into one.
