Here's a new chapter and I hope you guys enjoy! Here's chapter 5! I want to give a thanks to Liz. She may not be an author, but thank you for liking this story. R&R!
Grace's POV
Geeeeeeeeeeeezzzz. This is boring. I'm already at the Second Phase and no one is here yet… what should I do during the meantime? And this blood practically taste like perverted old men! What the heck is that 'voice' thinking? Feeding me something like this!
I know! I should spend some time in the swamp. Let's see… no one's around… yay! I can spread my wings out and take off these annoying eye contacts!
I got and felt my bat wings spread out. I took off my brown eye contacts, feeling the relief. The breeze blew off my face and wings. This is making me excited, I want to take to the air as soon as possible. But maybe I should take off my jacket before I do any off that. If someone tries to find me, I'll just confuse them that I was just and illusion and I can make a quick escape.
I took off my jacket and it went down with a bang… no, literally. My jacket weighs about 50 thousand tons, and my hat did the same thing with my hat; which weighs about 5 thousand tons. Not just that, but my pants weighs about 45 thousand, my shirt is the same with my jacket, and my shoes are 10 thousand. So 50+50+45+5+10= 160 thousand tons. Well… time to take off!
Flying isn't amazing…. IT'S SUPER ULTRA EPIC AMAZING! The speed, the acceleration, and the wind! This. Is. AWESOME!
Huh? Is that Satotz over there? I flew closer to the group to see that some of them already got themselves lost. I searched for Gon and Killua to see that they're safe. Thank goodness. But Gon seems worried about something.
"Hey, Gon," Killua said. "What are you worried about? Hisoka, right? That makes sense because he's the biggest threat out of all of us." Gon shook his head. "Then what is it?"
"Sennosuke." He… explained. What? Why he's so worried about me? Ami just the bother of the group. Am I not annoying to everyone? "I'm afraid that he might have gotten lost in the swamp. But for some reason, I believe in him. Even though he might've gotten lost, I know that he's already at the Second Phase."
"Well of course!" Killua shouted. "He practically ran really fast and wasn't even trying at all!"
"How can you tell?" Yeah… how could he tell I was actually going easy?
"Because he's strong enough to defeat Hisoka with a single punch, so this will be a breeze for him as well."
Guys… You guys are so nice. I wish that we will be friends when you learn about what I really am… But that's wishful thinking. I bet they won't. And the others… Wait… Kurapika… Leorio…. Where are they?! And where is that clown!? He's not here! I have to hurry! Fast.
Come on, come on, come on. Where are they?! HISOKA! He's around other examinees and those two! Get out of there you dolts! You guys are no match for him. Stop acting like scared little kittens and run! And I left my jacket hat and contacts at the Second Phase, so if they see me, this will be a mess! Not only that, but I'm flying with bat wings! My backpack! I still have that! Let's see… bottles of blood, clawshot, smoke bombs, iPhone… 3Ds… an extra shirt and… a… dress… Better than nothing!
*One moment later*
Dear god, this is itchy. Well this is all I got, but these heels are tipping me off. Yeah, I'm a tomboy, gotta a problem with that?! But I have to be more… *Gulp* Feminine. (CURSE THAT WORD!) I should also use some of my demonic energy. So no one knows it's me. Oh no… blood! Wait… ew! Their blood's nasty!
Kurapika's POV
H-Hisoka killed all of them like it was nothing! And with one strike no less. What are we going to do-
… What is this? It just became colder than it already is. And this energy doesn't belong to a normal human. I… I can't move. My body's trembling. I don't know if my nerves could take anymore.
"Hey!" That was a girl. "If you kill them, I'll kill you. Fight me instead."
I looked over to see… red eyes! A Kurta! She's a Kurta! I'm not the only one?!
"Oh?" I heard Hisoka hummed. "Who are you?" I can sense his smirk. He just can't wait to make her puke blood. But I won't allow him. Not on my watch.
She smirked. Doesn't she sense this… wait… the overflowing power is coming from her… What's going on here? "We are called by many names. Monsters, demons, vile creatures, and sometimes the devil's spawn… but what I am…" A pause. Letting her power flow. "A vampire."
WHAT?! A-a vampire?! The most feared and dangerous demons of all and practically the main prize for Mythical Beast Hunters for their beauty, strength, and their awesome speed. And also the fact that they're demons! Don't they wonder the night? So why is one here in pure daylight?!
"So… You're her." What is he talking about?! I don't know who's scarier. Hisoka… or her. "What's your name?"
"Grace." She said.
"Kurapika." Leorio. "What's up with her? Why is she saying weird stuff?"
I looked at him. He has this perverted grin on his face. Old man… why do I feel old now? But I have to agree. She looks really sexy. Her flowing pitch black hair ran through the wind, glittering with the light. Her face is like pure snow itself with a bit of red on her cheeks, curves that fit perfectly on her clothes, and her luscious, red lips and tempting blood eyes. She's a sight, I have to say. And her clothes just makes her more beautiful. Black skirt, silken red blouse, sparkling fuchsia ribbon, and ridiculously high, high heels. Her tempting eyes… I feel my feet move on their own, wanting to get closer.
Wait! No! She's a high class demon! I can't trust, and I don't even know the girl. And these swamps are full of creatures who want to eat us alive and lure us to our doom. She might be another Man-faced-ape. But what about this power? Is she really one?
"You two!" No! This is the end. "I saw a group following a mouthless guy over that way. South I believe. You two should head there."
"Why should we?" I asked. If I let my guard down for at least a moment, I might end up dead. But this will get dangerous. So we might have a choice in the matter.
"Yeah, either die by this jester or save yourselves by going to that guy!" Did she just argue back at me?
I can't! What?! When did Hisoka got over there. Not only that but she caught his attack with one finger. "What are you doing? GO NOW!"
"Leorio," This might be cowardly, but we don't have a choice unless one of us wants to die," on my signal, run in a different direction."
"What?!" He murmured. Idiot.
"These two are vastly more experienced in real combat." I explained. "The two of us won't stand a chance against them. We cannot afford to squander time in a pointless fight!" I heard him grunt. I would do that if my pride was on the line, but I ignored it. If we don't go now, we'll end up like those guys who made that mistake of fighting him. He began to get closer… I can practically feel his bloodlust just from here.
Damn it. I wish I was stronger than this… damn it.
"NOW!"
Grace's POV
With that, they ran off. Good. Now they won't get in the way of us fighting. Even if they're anime characters, they're still my friends.
"I see… A wise decision," He giggled and looked at me," but why don't you run with them. They are your friends after all."
Tsk… shoot him in the heart. I want to just strangle him for a ton of reasons. But I can't, I have to meet them back at- "Hmm."
LEORIO?! You idiot! Why are you here?! AND WHY DO YOU HAVE A STICK?! EVEN WITH ONE YOU CAN'T BEAT HIM!
"I just can't do it." Oh no, it's that stupid pride of his. He's such an idiot! Why would he risk his own life on his stupid pride? You dolt, get out of here! "This may not be my fight, but I won't close my eyes and make a break for it!"
LEORIO!?
He lunged at us, but we can easily dodged it, but- oh no! Hisoka!
"Mm, I adore the look on your face." He smirked. If he goes anywhere near him, I'll slit his throat! He attacked his illusion, but…
"What?"
"Leorio! Watch out!" I rushed to him, but what if… what if I can't save him?
No! I can't think like that! I won't have any more casualties with any of my friends. I will protect them, even if it means my life is on the line! I won't… no… we won't have it! Before the clown face could touch him, Gon's fishing pole hit him square on the face! Yeah! Good work Gon! But I have to stay focus.
"Gon!" Leorio shouted. Of course it is, who else has a fishing rod as a weapon?
I made it in time…Aren't you…" he sniffed the air. Guess he realized it's me. "You're a girl?!"
Soon I put my finger on my lips. "Our little secret." I don't want anyone else to know it's me, but Gon is an exception. Even though he might be a bit dull, he is a pretty bright kid.
"Gon! What do you mean?" Leorio shouted.
"Not bad, little boy." The creep that's called a jester is mocking us. I really want to punch him in the face now. But what I need is to protect the guys from that joker. "Is that a fishing pole? What a fascinating weapon. He started to walk up to Gon!
"Boy! Get out of the way!" He's trembling.
"Allow me to have a closer look."
Leorio?! Stay down! "Your fight… is with me!"
Idiot… He got sucker punched in the face. I can't believe it. He's such an idiot when it comes to common sense. I wish Leorio would have gone to one of my schools to learn that, but I guess it's too late for him. Now he's unconscious.
Gon tried to attack him, but it missed. Hisoka's behind him.
"You came to rescue your friends?" He whispered. I see him behind him and the boy tried to move away from him, but he was behind him again. "Such a good boy." He tried to attack him, but it was another illusion.
"Gon! Don't try to fight him! Get Leorio out of here and let me take care of this." I said to him.
"No!" he shouted… huh? "You're my friend too, so I'm staying too!"
"… ARE YOU THAT DULL OF AN IDIOT!? I'M WASTING MY TIME HERE WHERE YOU GUYS SHOULD BE AT THE SECOND PHASE RIGHT NOW! And like I said, he can't hurt me, even if his life depends on it."
Man, why am I surrounded by idiots?
"Truth to her words." Even clown face agrees? Thank you clown face, but you're trying to kill us, so I take it back.
"Hisoka!" I shouted out to the jester. I'm not going to let this tension get any thicker. If I don't think of something, my friends will end up dead… no! I won't let that happen to them! Not again! "Leave them alone. We'll finish this later!" I won't allow anymore of friends to get hurt again, even if they're from a show or real life. Especially with the powers that I have right now.
He chuckled. Tsk. I don't know what the heck he's thinking. And I should've stayed at the Second Phase playing Kid Icarus: Uprising.
"Fine," He said. Thank goodness.
I felt myself sigh in relief. "Ok… you promise not to kill these two?"
"Don't worry," he shouted cheerfully. "I won't lay a finger on them." I relaxed, knowing that even though he's a creep, he's telling the truth. "Besides… I want you all to myself."
Creep.
"You guys passed anyways. Good luck on the Exam!" With that, he picked up Leorio and went to the next phase. Before that, he turned around. "He sure to be great Hunters! And it's always good to have friends." With that, he left.
Gon is panting like crazy. I don't blame him. If I wasn't a vampire right now, I might've end up dead. "You ok Gon?"
He nodded. Here it goes. He's going to say that I'm a- "You're really pretty!" Wait… what…? Isn't he going to say that I'm a monster and leave? And… and… "How come you hid the fact that you're a girl?"
"Because," I paused, probable still having a dumbfounded face that's plastered on my face, but I kept my cool… hopefully. "No one said anything about me being a girl. "I paused a bit and gave a smirk. "And I want to be treated equally. If anyone found out that I'm a girl, they would think that I'm some delicate piece of jewelry. And If they knew that I'm a vampire, they'll be either afraid of me or try to hunt me down. Selling one vampire for a slave cost millions, no trillions of jennies. So can you keep my secret?"
Ok, I might have went a bit overboard with the jennies, but still, having on for a slave might cost a fortune.
He gave a genuine smile. Gon, even though you can't read my mind, thank you. Thank you for being a good friend. You're really king Gon.
"Ah! Sennosuke! You're crying!"
"W-wa?" I touched my cheeks and… tears… why?
"Why are you crying? Are you sad?" I never been so happy in my life, so why… That's it.
I tried to scrub off my tears. I don't like when that happens, but it can't be helped. I had enough tears for my life time, so I don't need them now. "It's nothing. I'm happy that you accept me as your friend. Thanks…"
"That's what friends are for!" I couldn't help myself but hug him and kiss his cheek. I see him blush. He's so cute! He… took my pinkie? "I'll always be friends with you, and that's a promise! Pinkie swear made… Whoever breaks their promise has to swallow a thousand needles. Sealed with a kiss!"
"Sealed with a kiss?" I felt myself smirk. "Ok!" I kissed him again, but he also kiss my cheek. He's so sweet!
"Gon!" Kurapika? Oh man, what will I do now?! Help! "You… all… right?"
Yup. I'm in trouble. "Hey."
"Y-you…"
"Well…" I'll be taking off. Good luck guys." I said, trying to take my leave. "Bye." Why is my heart beating like crazy? No… ignore it.
I open my wings and began to take flight- huh? What the? I looked to see Kurapika's… Holding my hand….
"Where's Leorio?" He asked sternly.
"Hisoka took him." Gon shouted. Thank you! Kurapika looked at him in surprised… am I being ignored again? "She tried to save him, but he got away."
He then let go of my hand. My heart was beating fast. Thank goodness. It was about to pop out of my chest. "Oh… sorry."
"I bet they headed to the next site." Gon said with his cheerful smile.
Man… everything is going so fast that my brain can't even stand it. And I only noticed a few changes in the story. Kurapika used to keep his guard up all the time, but now he's becoming more lax, more… something. Why? I'm not complaining because that means that he may drop his revenge on the Spiders… I hope, but what would've changed him?
"And sorry… for…" Red? His cheeks are… red" Why is he embarrassed? "Sorry for the rude introduction. The name's Kurapika."
He looked away and held out his hand. I took it. "My name is Grace." Alright. Should I ask him about the change, but what if he get suspicious of me… and that this world is actually fictional?! And that means… they won't continue on and just stop their adventure! Gon will never see his father, Kurapika won't get all of his brethren's eyes, Killua won't have a true childhood, and Leorio's dream of being a doctor will be depleted! TOO MUCH PRESSURE!
"Anything wrong Grace?" I heard Gon asked. I don't know if I am myself.
"I'm fine. But thanks anyways." I said, trying to calm down.
Kurapika's POV
"Well… Thanks anyways."
Wow. I never knew how cute she is, but she's a demon after all. And she… tried to save us, so I'll give her a bit of credit.
"Well." I started, "Thanks for the-"
W-what is she doing?! She's… kissing me!
But her lips are soft and warm. I can feel myself kissing back at her lips. Even if she is a demon, and have these incredible powers… her kiss was gentle, loving, and soft.
"Bye." And with that, she's gone.
"Kurapika." Gon said. I looked at him. Wonder what on his mind rind now. I would probably feel awkward if I was him. "Should we head to the next site?"
"Yes." I answered, trying not to make thing more awkward than it already is. I followed Gon to the Second Phase. He said that he can smell Leorio's cologne… is he a dog? I just hope that Sennosuke's there.
What happened? He got kissed by 'one' person and worried about another? Will he figure out that they're the same person, or will his heart confuse the poor Kurta? R&R
