Joker X Love X Queen
Chapter 7
"I didn't know you knew each other" Illumi simply said in a neutral tone looking down at the naked pair whose tangle in a seductive mess
Scarlet was the first one to get in embarrass and thank god that Hisoka was the one whose on top to cover her whole body, so in a lightning speed, she disappear to Hisoka's dresser
There's a silence among the two dangerous killers, Hisoka stand in his naked proud and glory.
"We just met, we don't technically know each other~" the jester reply to his companion earlier question with a shrug, his eyes dangerously snap at Illumi "And you?"
The black haired simply pull out a thick envelop from his pocket "Business, she's currently my employer"
"oh~? …did she hire you to kill someone?" Hisoka ask out of curiosity
"Not quite, just to grab some underground information in anyway" Illumi said with a carefree voice while Hisoka is gazing at the envelope, his hands were twitching in his sides
"hmm~…interesting…maybe I can take a quick pea-" FWOPPP!
Before Hisoka can even finish his sentence, a white towel was slap on his face
"Stay out of this Hisoka, I paid for it" Scarlet butt in snatching the file from Illumi 's hand while grabbing her phone in process
Illumi obediently let go of those stuff, not wanting to deal with his impatient employer
Hisoka pull down the white towel from his face, showing Scarlet a childish pout – but he was the one who was halted on his action- when he saw Scarlet's new outfit. She's wearing his spare clothes which is a white blouse that's obviously too big for her, but enough to look hot and says 'I just had a sex with Hisoka'
"What?" Scarlet ask Hisoka's cheeky stare, he responded with a grin while rubbing his chin thoughtfully
"I love my clothes on you, feel free to wear them all the time" he admit, Scarlet look at him with a annoyed expression
"This is the only normal clothes you have on your closet, you idiot"
"That's why it's all yours, you can always wear it especially after having se-" Scarlet flick the envelope once she pull out the file, enhancing a bit nen in it to make it as sharp as knife, Hisoka barely dodge the dangerous object
"My my~…Feisty" Hisoka sang while wrapping the towel on his waist with a grin
Illumi slightly chuckle earning Hisoka's attention
"Your type of woman are always the feisty one, huh"
"Well they are always the fun one, don't you agree?" Hisoka reply, their small chat however was immediately cut by Scarlet's joyous squeal, Hisoka look at her happy expression, he didn't know she's capable of expressing something so normal
"Thank you Zoldyck, I knew hiring a Zoldyck is the best choice for this job and I didn't even need to waste my time…." Scarlet look over the file with glee then on her phone to check the calendar, her eyes brighten
While Hisoka gotten curious and curious about Scarlet's reaction that he can't help but to glare at the certain Zoldyck who's innocently watching the happy woman, gather her clothes in the floor.
"Well…Zoldyck, the money is on your account…." She said grabbing her last garment and the pinned envelop on the wall "Ooh~ and Hisoka you could give my 10 million Jennies on Illumi, take it as a tip, ja~" with playful wink at Illumi she walk out the room humming to herself
There's a silence….
Until Hisoka killing intent nen roar out of his body and pull out a single card…he turn his head to his companion slowly "I-llu-mi-kun"
Illumi look at Hisoka with the same dull expression "Nani?"
Back on Scarlet's room she hurriedly pack her stuff in her small bag
Then in some odd reason, the wind blew her bangs- she sigh not bothering to look over her shoulder to know who her unexpected visitor is
"what do you want?" Scarlet can no longer count how many times she had ask this question to Hisoka
"I'll go with you" Hisoka simply walking out of the shadow to reveal himself, Scarlet continue to pack ignoring his presence "I always wanted to go on Zombie island, they did said it's just a myth but I guess Illumi-kun's information contradict-"
"No" She firmly said grabbing her glasses and putting it on her eyes, Hisoka pout at the immediate respond and walk over behind Scarlet's holding on her waist with his strong hands while leaning his whole body.
"Why not?" he pout putting his chin on her shoulder, Scarlet caught her breath in this action, making her blush "I can be your body guard, I heard it's hard to get there alone, I'll help you"
"I don't need a body guard and I can do this alone" She said ignoring Hisoka and started packing again "and why the hell are you snooping on my business anyway…that's not like you-"
"It is when my prey is leaving in a dangerous island and might be killed by other predators" Scarlet left eye twitch at this statement, she turn and face Hisoka, she knows he's serious on his words but damn, she's not some damsel and distress
"For your information I'm not your prey…and I'm strong enough to defend myself, thank you very much….I can survive that island all…on my. .OWN" she argue poking Hisoka's chest on her every word
HIsoka on the other hand is dead serious, he's looking down at Scarlet in a serious expression that Scarlet didn't know he's capable of. He isn't saying anything, he's just staring at her with those piercing eyes as if he's thinking of something to convince her to stay and-
Scarlet eyes soften when she remember the last time she saw this kind of expression to someone else, but this is Hisoka we're talking about….he's a…he's a…monster
Scarlet snap out from her delusional state and glare at Hisoka with a piercing hatred "This is none of your business, if I die there, it's going to be my choice –" Scarlet then remember the reason why she is doing this, why she is risking her life to go back to that stinking island, her eyes slightly watered "Actually why am I explaining myself to you? You don't care- All you care about is to kill me with your own hands and feel good about it…you know, I don't even understand you" She exclaim in a frustrated tone
She push Hisoka away from her "You're the main reason why I'm doing this, this is actually all your fault! I'm fixing my fucking life damn it…and I don't need your help- because you're the reason I'm trying to risk my life to go back there-" she spat but immediately stop when she realize she said something unnecessary, she immediately cover her mouth
There's a thick silence, no one said a word until
"hmm~" Hisoka hum "I see…there's something important in that island, something that the mad scientist is going to give you?..Zombie island…also known by normal people as purgatory…." He massage his chin thoughtfully "I wonder, what are the things that I had taken from you that made your life miserable?"
Scarlet eyes widen as she gritted her teeth, cursing her big mouth "Shit" she immediately turn her back and started gathering her stuff to leave but Hisoka was able to grab her and pull her back to a warm embrace, stopping all her movements
"I'm just guessing but…is it…your family or your boyfriend" Hisoka whisper on her ears
Scarlet eyes widen unable to move or reply
"I- don't know what you're talking about…their already d-dead" she shutter full of emotion as she look down shaking
"Yes…but we all know Zombie island especially that mad scientist can do a lot of things" HIsoka chuckle "I don't mind killing your parents and your dear boyfriend once again, Scar-let-chan" he said in a cherry expression
Scarlet eyes widen, range overwhelm her body "Don't you..dare"
BOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHHH!
Her nen burst out of her body in range, Hisoka back away licking his lower lip staring at Scarlet's furious expression
Scarlet had underestimated Hisoka's mind, he's too close…he's too close to knowing the truth, He can destroy her plan and grab it in his benefit- she can't allow this
"Don't you dare talk about my parent's and my boyfriend's life as if they don't mean anything…. You're not going with me, you're not ruining everything that I had plan…you're not coming with me" she snarled furious at HIsoka grabbing his collar threatening
"I think you don't have any choice my love…you do need us for your requirement" Hisoka simply said releasing all the tension with his clown like smile, showing a piece of paper at Scarlet's face
PAUUUUUUSSEE!
Scarlet immediately halted at her action "What?" she ask letting go of Hisoka
Hisoka chuckle knowing that Scarlet haven't read the last part of the requirement for the Zombie island
"3 powerful nen user, two male and a female are the entrance to the gate of hell" Hisoka dictated while reading the last page of Scarlet's paid documents
Scarlet snatch the paper from his hands
"I already paid Illumi to come with us" Hisoka inform while she's busy scanning the curse file "and judging by your time, midnight tomorrow…is the blue moon, and you won't even have time to look for someone else"
Scarlet stop staring at the dumb shitty paper, ready to rip it apart in range
"Now now~ you don't want to rip the paper apart, you paid a lot from it" the clown tease
Scarlet's short tempe attitude finally overtake and as cue she kick Hisoka's knee-
CRACK!
Her kick is strong enough to dislocate his bones but HIsoka just chuckle and watch his queen walk out the room, pissed as hell
"Hurry up you fucking bastard" He heard her call, he smile and stretch his leg back to its proper form
Crack~
"Coming my love"
