AbsoluteZer0Nova All will be revealed in chapter 114 and 115.
As We stop at a door, Killua peeks through.
He checks both sides before he waves me in, letting me know it's clear.
We quietly bolt through the corridor, turning a corner past the earlier ants we killed.
Killua stops suddenly, turning around as I turn to look at him "What?"
Killua whispers "Someone's watching us. And... It's probably someone we know."
It can't be Gon... So that leaves Knuckle, Morel, Knov and Shoot.
Killua grits his teeth to check it out. He peeks, seeing no one.
I run to his side as he rolls out his yo-yo, using it as a reflective mirror.
Killua frowns "No one's there?"
Killua suddenly freaks out as I hear footsteps "Who is it?"
Killua continues to stare at the yo-yo in silence.
Killua peeks again "Palm... No, that can't be the same Palm... She was captured by the Royal Guard... And she's been transformed!"
Killua turns, whispering to me "If Gon sees what's happened to Palm, he won't be able to take it... There's no room left in his heart. If the transformation has reached as far as Palm's heart... I can see Gon completely break down!"
Killua gets up, walking into the hallway as I whisper "What are you thinking?"
Killua keeps silent as he continues to make his presence known.
I grit my teeth as I lay low for the moment.
Killua's P.O.V
I look at Palm.
I must learn the answer. We still have a chance. Palm approached us herself!
"Palm?"
Palm must have sensed me or Daniel before I noticed her watching us... Using that power she told us about before.
I remember what Palm said when we ran into Palm.
Once I used my power, it was quite simple.
I thought she could use some kind of Divination to locate people.
But it's probably closer to clairvoyance.
From her position, Palm shouldn't have been able to see me...
The only conclusion is that she was watching me by some other means.
And if Palm were an enemy, she would have backed off...
Clairvoyance is most effective from a distance.
And if she's an enemy, she shouldn't remember me anymore.
Since she approached me, she must remember me... Remember us!
Palm eyes widen slightly "Killua, yes?"
I look at her in shock as I make my way slowly to her.
I knew it... She has her memories!
Palm speaks up "Where's Gon? Once he's seen what I've become, will Gon hate me?"
I frown, putting my hands on my side "Gon doesn't judge people by appearances. And you're assuming that he doesn't already hate you."
Palm retorts "You're always so spiteful... Well, it doesn't matter."
I frown looking up at her as she continues "I have nothing to gain from your pity. Where's Gon?"
I answer her "Gon's with Pitou. He's-"
I cut myself off, going deep into thought.
Why can she see me, but she can't see Gon?
Palm speaks up, snapping me out of my train of thought "What's wrong?"
I decide to question Palm, in hopes of finding out more "Was it chance that you happened to find us?"
Palm looks up confused "Huh? Us, what are you talking about? You're the one who turned the corner."
Didn't she see Daniel...?
How?
He was right in front of me...
I point at Palm "Wrong! I sensed you watching me. That's why I came this way! You noticed me first. Why are you lying?"
Palm glares at me "Where's Gon?"
I retort "Answer my question first."
Palm clenches her fist.
Did I notice Palm watching me only when she physically saw me?
Does that mean Palm actually saw me once, then immediately left?
Then she used clairvoyance to watch me follow her, and turned around so it'd look like she was approaching me?
Palm speaks up again as she grits her teeth "For the last time... Where's Gon?"
I pull out my yo-yo, slinging it over my shoulder "I won't tell you. You're an enemy, aren't you?" Palm begins to cover her body in hair as I freak out.
"I made a mistake... I used my power incorrectly. When I was brimming with rage, I should have let my emotions take over!"
I grit my teeth staring at her.
Sh-She's dangerous!
I stand on guard, holding onto both yo-yos, ready to attack as Palm yells "Better to let everything out than hold it in. That includes my desire to kill you!"
I throw one of my yo-yos as Palm destroys it instantly.
I jump back as Palm charges me.
Before I know what's going on, someone grabs me from the behind, throwing me far behind them, followed by the sounds of a loud clash of weapons.
Daniel's P.O.V
Palm yells "Better to let everything out than hold it in. That includes my desire to kill you!"
I grit my teeth, running out from the corner to charge Palm.
She destroys one of Killua's yo-yos, charging Killua next.
I grab Killua by the shirt, throwing him behind me as I draw War Ravager, turning it to the side to use it as a shield.
She freaks out "What the-?"
Her fist impacts with the blade, sending me skidding across the floor.
Palm laughs "Well? What now?"
I glare at Palm, lowering the blade "Your beef is with me now... shall we dance?"
Palm attacks me as I block using the blade.
I continue to block all the attacks while stepping back as she continues to taunt me "Will you die without a word? Will you die after speaking?"
Palm kicks hard, sending me flying back into one of the walls.
I grit my teeth getting back up "I won't die!"
I charge Palm, dodging her attacks as I swinge the blade, breaking all her attacks before hitting her in the side, sending her straight into the wall "Bitch! You're up against me now you have no idea what would happen If I released my rage!"
I slam the sword into the wall, missing her and taking take out a good chunk of the wall.
She charges me while my guard is left open.
I tilt the blade, levering it into the wall so it breaks my open stance.
The blade allows me to jump out of Palm's attack range as I rip the blade out of the wall, using it as cover myself.
The impact of her punch, sends me flying into the air as I grit my teeth, hooking myself onto a wall. She runs up the wall towards me as I grab Wolfbane out, latching onto the opposite wall.
I release the shackle on Wolfbane, dropping to the floor to block another attack from Palm. However, her punch on the blade almost buries me in the floor this time.
Palm looks down at me in pity "Won't you just die?"
Killua charges in, hitting her as she frowns jumping back.
Killua glares at her, making sure to keep one eye on me at the same time "Are you ok?"
I nod, getting up slowly as I clutch my chest "I'm awesome!"
Killua frowns "Says the guy bleeding from his forehead and lip."
I wipe the blood away "I said I'm fine!"
I Killua frowns.
Just not in the head...
I have a desire to kill anyone around me.
Whether they're friend or foe.
The voice...
I recognise it...
It's Tempest speaking to me...
Why did the voice suddenly get louder and stronger?
I grit my teeth "Stay out of this Killua I have more of an advantage when it comes to fighting Enhancers!"
Killua grits his teeth "Your going back to square one!"
Palm charges us as I push Killua out the way, swinging the blade to deflect her back "I know what I'm doing Killua! Trust me!"
Killua frowns "I've trusted you for a long time but your track record isn't quite good right now!"
I interject "Well this time trust-"
I fall to watch Palm, ignoring her movements for far too long.
She lands a punch in my face, causing me to ricochet off the floor into the wall, coughing blood.
She aims to attack Killua next as I yell "Leave him alone you Psychotic bitch!"
Killua dodges the attack one by one as I struggle to move from the spot.
I manage to free my hand but the impact of her punch manage to wedge my hand and War Ravager into the wall.
Palm laughs manically, charging Killua as I'm left hanging.
Killua's P.O.V
I pull up my guard blocking, her attack as I feel a slight trickle of blood from my nose.
Daniel continues to yell for Palm to stop.
Palm is an Enhancer.
When everything clicks, it's possible to become this much stronger?
I completely blocked the attack the attack but I still took damage.
If the fight drags on, I'll be at a total disadvantage.
I need to find an opening to free Daniel.
Together we can take down Palm... Only if we can work together!
I grit my teeth.
Gon's mind is already at its limit!
He's barely holding himself together, while he waits for Pitou.
So running is not an option and Daniel most certainly can't run or block for that matter right now!
Palm smiles manically as I wipe my nose.
I can't let them meet. Even if Palm's heart is still there... It'll have a negative effect now!
I clench my fist quickly looking at Daniel struggle to release himself.
Palm starts to do Cartwheels towards me as I jump to the side, using this chance to run towards Daniel.
I smash the area around the sword as Daniel frees himself.
Palm comes down on us as Daniel and I scatter from the spot.
I attach myself to the opposite wall, calling out "Palm! Why are you looking for Gon? Depending on why, I might be willing to tell you where he is."
Daniel uses that distraction as I stop him "Hold it!"
Daniel frowns, stopping as he holds his guard up.
Palm glares at me while keeping her eyes on Daniel "Huh? Why are you asking now? There's no reason... I just want to see him."
Palm drops to the floor "He's probably nearby. I'll find him myself. Once I've kill you!"
Daniel attacks Palm, swinging his sword as if he were aiming to kill Palm, without any value for his life.
I jump down, grabbing Daniel to pull him away "I'm sorry!"
Palm comes to a complete stop as Daniel looks confused at me, trying to understand the reason for why I'm stopping him.
"I panicked and called you an enemy... But even if you look different you're still Palm, right?"
Palm stops frozen on the spot as Daniel lift up his blade.
I hold down the sword as I continue "Gon is suffering. Someone he deeply respects was completely transformed. That person had his soul taken away. Right now, Gon is facing off against the one responsible! If you appear before Gon looking as you do now..."
I stop speaking, cutting myself off as I look worried.
Daniel holds me as I finish my sentence off "Gon will... totally snap. so you have to call him by his name first. You must say, Gon."
Daniel's P.O.V
I look destroyed at Killua.
I'm just a major fuck up... I'm losing my touch. Why...?
Killua looks up at Palm, seeing her completely frozen on the spot "That's the condition. Tell him you're okay."
Killua gets up as I stay on the floor, looking down.
"Before we entered the palace, Gon was really worried about you."
Killua hides his tears as he continues "Give him some peace of mind..."
I hear a tear drop as I look up at Killua, seeing him crying.
Killua continues "Help... Make him feel a little better, if you can... Only you can do that now! No one else... can do it."
I get up, holding Killua in my arms, forcing him to hide his tears in my chest.
I hide him not because I don't want others to see him cry, but because when I see him cry, it actually hurts me the most.
I can't stand looking at him like this.
When his like this, it kills me on the inside.
Killua speaks up from within my chest, holding onto me tightly "I can't... Do anything!" Killua continues to cry within my chest as I look at Palm.
I look completely Emotionless at her unable to cry.
I've never been able to cry in front of anyone...
Only Killua...
