The frog ant frowns "Hey!"

The beetle shakes the can, showing the number 3.

The Dog ant speaks up "#3. #3's up!"

A massive rhino ant steps forward, laughing "You won't be smiling for long."

Killua and the Rhino step towards each other, as the rhino continues to speak "I'm about to show you hell. Got it?"

The rhino stops to point at Baro "I'm nothing like the trash over there."

Gon retorts "Trash?"

The rhino turns towards Gon "Huh? I said trash because he's trash."

The rhino turns back towards Killua, continuing to point at Baro "I'm ten times stronger than that guy."

Killua smiles at the Rhino "Oh, that's nothing to brag about."

I chuckle at Killua's response as The Rhino retorts "WHAT WAS THAT?"

The Rhino starts the battle, trying to ram Killua. Killua dodges it quickly.

The Rhino growls as it faces Killua.

Killua uses his after image technique to confuse the Rhino. The Chimera Ant rams the middle image, running into the tree.

As the Ant looks around for Killua, Killua appears in front of him, adjusting his claws and going in for the kill.

Killua's claws barely scratches the Rhino, creating small sparks against the creature.

The rhino grins at Killua "My body is covered by hardened skin."

Killua steps back, moving quickly out of the Chimera Ant's reach.

Each quick step Killua takes, he hits the Rhino with his Lightning Palm.

The Rhino turns to face Killua, exclaiming "I can take as many of those attacks as you can throw!"

Killua grins "Oh, yeah?" Killua continues to move around quickly, , aiming for the same spot every time.

The Rhino starts to hit the air around him frantically, as if his afraid, afraid of dying.

Killua uses this opportunity to kill the Rhino instantly, ramming his claws straight into the Rhino's chest.

The Rhino falls over dead as Killua speaks up "Is there anyone ten times stronger than this guy?"

I jump up smiling, stepping forward "If there is can you make this fight interesting?"

The beetle shakes the can, showing the number 12. The dog ant speaks up "#12. #12's up."

A Goat-Beetle Chimera ant steps forward "I'm going to smash you straight into the ground and make you eat your words!"

I grin, swaying my body's weight onto one side, flicking my wrist in an attempt to taunt the creature "Come get some!"

The creature charges me.

I grin widely, taunting the creature even further "I'm about to show you what hell feels like..."

I flick my hand, side stepping out of the creature's way, quickly grabbing onto its arm.

I move behind him, holding his arm again his will "What you gonna do goat boy?"

The creature breaks out of my hold, trying to grab me.

In one fluid motion, I duck quickly, sweeping it's legs, knocking it into the air. I tap on the Ant's shoulder, burying it's head into the floor like a shovel.

I slid back, grinning at the poor creature buried head first "Your finished now... shall we begin?"

As the creature burrows under the ground, I close my eyes calmly speaking "You can't hide from me forever..."

In irritation, I click my tongue "Tch..." I can't afford to keep using aura. I'm already digging well into my reserves.

I smile widely, acting as though I know where the creature is "I can see you..."

The creature digs up from underground, feeling the floor start to give way under my foot. I jump back, seeing the creature come out from under the floor.

I kick the goat straight in the face, moving my hand fast, I pull out a shadow spear, ramming it into his foot.

I'll just sacrifice my field for this!

The creature screeches in agony.

I smile, wrapping my hand around it's neck Let's put on a show of terror for these guys.

"Now let's use that another ability... I'm sure you will enjoy it! Falcon..."

forcing the aura into my fist, I focus a small portion of my aura into my fist "You lose kid."

I punch the Ant straight in the gut, twisting it's insides "Punch!"

The impact of the fist, sends the goat flying into one of the trees, wedging the Ant into tree.

I grin, turning back to the ants "We could keep going all night." Kite makes his way forward as I step back, allowing Kite to have some room.

The beetle goes to shake the can.

I step up to Killua, hearing him whisper "You're lying... aren't you."

I nod, looking Killua in the eyes "You know me well... Although you gotta admit... it was pretty cool..."

Killua looks away, making a small sound "Whatever..." He whispers the next part, barely audioable "I agree..."

The Frog gets infuriated "That's enough... It's my turn!"

The Frog gets interrupted as the clown from earlier appears, exclaiming "2!"

Fog covers the area, giving everyone an eerie feeling as Kite holds a Scythe "Two, huh? Damn, bad spin."

"Bad spin?" I retort, exclaiming like a girl, or guy screaming as though they had just met their idol "That's one of the badass weapons of all time!"

My eyes shift to Kite, commenting dryly "Did you pick any weapons you like?"

Kite ignores my question as Gon speaks up "Killua... Daniel..."

Killua nods "That scythe is nasty."

Kite speaks up "Gon, Killua, Daniel... In three seconds, jump up."

As Kite begins to swing in a circular motion, we jump up, avoiding the blade.

As soon as we land back down, I look up, seeing everyone is cut in half.

I freak out from the destruction and havoc the blade has left behind.

Everything within at least 50 meters, had been sliced horizontally, including the trees surrounding us.

Kite motions to his weapon "Get lost!"

The clown disappears as Kite explains the power behind the attack "This scythe can be used only with this technique. And it won't disappear until I've used it. It's such a drag..."

Kite walks away as I frown, retorting in my mind.

I would kill for an ability like that...

Killua muses "So why did you choose that power?"

I shake my head "I'm starting to think Ging made him choose that power..."

Kite Interjects "Be cautious as we advance. As I mentioned, that won't be enough to kill them immediately."

Kite stops suddenly, turning to face Gon "Are you ok?"

Gon stops confused for a moment as Kite continues "It's only getting worse from here. If you start to sympathize with the enemy, you won't be able to handle what's coming."

Gon turns to face the corpses "I'm fine. I have no sympathy for bugs that call each other trash."

I turn to face Kite as he shows no sort of emotions. But you can tell, his thinking about something seriously... but what exactly?

We head straight into the trees, walking slowly towards the Chimera Ant Queen's castle.

Kite stops suddenly "We're being followed."

Gon and Killua turn around as he continues "Not from there."

I see Kite look up the sky, speaking calmly "There's quite a number of them. Let's move fast they intend to trap us."

Kite bolts as we run after him, keeping pace.

Time Skip

Kite speaks up while continuing to run "They're coming from the left and right."

Kite turns to us as Killua looks shocked "Keep your guard."

A giant fly flies past us as Killua swipes, missing it. The ant retreats back to the trees.

Another one attacks Gon, retreats as well.

Killua shoots a lightning bolt, only to have the attack hit a tree. "They are using the trees to defend themselves" I sigh in irritation, Killua growls "Damn..."

Gon sighs in frustration "The trees are getting in the way."

Killua nods "Yeah."

I turn to Kite "How many of them are there?"

Kite responds "I count nine. One of them is leading them."

Gon responds "Shouldn't we get out of the forest?"

Kite objects "This is a trap."

I muse over our current predicament "Can we reverse the situation?"

Killua turns, looking at me "Can you command them to come to us?"

I shake my head, looking over to Killua "Nope... I can only use Ko or Ken at this point..."

Killua sighs "You seriously need to master your abilities so they aren't as taxing..."

I nod at Killua, sighing in agreement "I sadly agree... Except for Specalist... That's like a major requirement..."

Kite sighs in irritation "To think I have to rely on that..."

Time Skip

Kite rolls a 2, releasing his devastating ability. He slows down after clearing the forest, walking out of the forest.

As we clear the forest, I see something move in the grass, walking away from us. I couldn't exactly see what it was, but Kite was nice enough to tell us what had jsut happened "He was able to understand that he was outclassed, and he calmly backed down at once. Most likely, he was a squadron Leader."

The creatures look down from the cliff, turning around to back off, leaving us alone.

I frown "That was anti-climatic..."

Kite interjects "We're following them."

We look confused at Kite as he continues "Their nest must be nearby. If we follow them, we will find the Queen."

I nod as we jump off the cliff, following them on an endless race to kill the queen, before the king is born.

Thoughts go through my mind "How do we plan on taking down the Queen with so many Soldiers and Captains to block our way. We could rely on Kites slot 2 ability but the chances of getting it is 1 out of 9."

Another thought pops into my head. I can draw in most of the ants with Sloth... Wait I just use Greed... Can't use another... There's no point even thinking what ability could work here...

I groan, scrunching my hair in fury as Killua and Gon look at me confused.

I just smile at them, turning back to focus on Kite in front of me.

Kill again... Spill more blood...

I sigh, letting a bit of irriation escape. The voice has gotten louder recently, saying I should kill more... Although, strangely enough, it sounds as though it's more for pleasure.

I smile slightly, hiding it from the others. However, one thought runs through my mind stronger than that... when have I ever bothered listening to my own advice?

Kite interrupts my train of thought "If you're going to keep getting distracted, you should leave now!"

I frown "I'm not distracted there's just so many ways that we could take down the queen. I'm just wondering which is the best way..."

Kite responds "Kill them all. Leave none alive... that is how we are going to do it..."

Kite keeps silent for a moment, speaking up after that brief moment of silence "They're continuing to go straight. The Chimera Ant nest must be up ahead."

Killua responds calmly "Amazing... He's been picking them up this entire time, never losing them for an instant."

Gon comments "Kite said he could use En within a radius of forty-five meters."

Killua turns to Gon "I've heard that those called Nen masters can handle around fifty meters. Kite is nearly there. Actually, given that he's kept it up for an entire night, he's probably stronger."

Gon looks shocked "Stronger than a master... Wait what about Daniel?"

I turn to Gon confused "What about me?"

Gon responds "Kite said you had a radius of 150..."

I frown "Sure. If I want to find someone specific... Typically, my normal radius just lets me know that people are in my vicinity. Although, Nen fucks with it, Zetsu can avoid it, animals in hiding avoids it. can only focus if I use something to compare with. But even then, I'm stretching it... my En at best can be used to target multiple targets. If, I know who they are... so if I use Gon's aura I could find him within a 150 meter radius... which is stupid, seeing as his standing two feet away."

I smile however "I can track Killua up to 1 kilometre... If I really wanted to really stalk him."

Killua frowns as Gon turns to face Kite "So that makes Kite the real deal."

Killua nods "Yeah, he's the first real pro hunter we've met. Tsezgerra was a pro Hunter, but we really only knew him as another player in a game. Bisky was an incredible Hunter. But to us..."

Gon nods "Yeah, she was our Nen mentor."

I grin "And then there was the first person who taught us about Nen..."

Gon nods "Wing-san was our Nen master and saviour."

Killua looks ahead, still in thought "Looking back, we always meet the right people when we need them most. And those people have all made us stronger."

I smile, thinking in my head. I hope that doesn't include the people who are stalking me...

Killua smiles, amused "I know what you're thinking Daniel, and no. They definitely not included... they were more like bugs, flying into your vicinity to only test our relationship, and if not your dedication to me..."

I scratch the back of my head, turning red as Gon interjects "Does that include Razor?"

Killua nods "Yeah. It's clear that Ging really did create Greed Island to train you. And once you beat the game, he deliberately led you to Kite."

Gon smiles "Ging!"

Killua stays focus on what's in front of him as if in deep thought.
