"You sure?- Oh hold on, boss is calling." I hear a click and then the familiar voice of Chrollo.
...
I zoned out for one second and now all of a sudden we're landing on a rocky ledge of some sort of canyon. I follow the others out of the basket of the air balloon and step onto the gravelly ground.
"Oh damn." I mutter, looking at all the mafia guys running out of their cars with guns. They really think they're that high and mighty don't they?
"I'll take care of this!" Uvogin snickers with a smirk, cracking his knuckles as he jumps down to approach the mafia members. "You sure he'll be fine alone?" I turn to the others, eyebrows raised.
"Yeah, he's Uvo. Of course he'll be fine!" Shalnark replies, pulling out a deck of cards. "Anyone up for a game of Go Fish?"
...
After an earsplitting shout spreads through the air, all I can hear is ringing! "Ow son of a bitch!" I groan, holding my ears. "COULD YOU AT LEAST GIVE US A WARNING?!!" Nobunaga wails, jumping down to where Uvo sits on the ground.
I follow the others over to an un-moving Uvogin. "Hey Shizuku, could you use that vacuum thing to suck the venom out of me?"
"Sure thing." Shizuku says before summoning a blue vacuum with a tongue! That's an amazing nen abillity! I watch in awe as she gives it a command.
Right before I can see her ability in action, I feel something cold and tight wrap around my body.
"AHHHHH!" I scream when I'm yanked backwards into the air, landing hard in someone's arms. It takes a second for me to process it but I'm being carried and the person carrying me is running! I'm also tied up in chains?!
What the hell is going on??!! Who is this?? I can't tell because I'm facing the ground.
"HEY WHAT THE HELL??!!" Loud shouts coming from next to me makes my ears ring yet again. It looks like I'm not the only person being taken. "OW! YOU'RE RIGHT NEXT TO MY EAR YA'KNOW!" I whine at the loudness of Uvo's yelling.
"O- Sorry kid!"
I yelp as I'm thrown into the backseat of the car, followed by Uvogin. "Don't move, kay?" He whispers in my ear. "Huh??" I give Uvo a confused look. He manages to reach his hand up to the back of my neck. "Dude what are you-"
With a tiny pinch, the world starts spinning and everything turns black.
...
"Oww, that hurts like a major bitch." I groan, putting my hands on my head as I regain consciousness. "Y/n!" A familiar voice grows louder as it approaches.
"Are you okay?" The person moves my hands back to my sides and places a warm wet towel on my forehead. It looks like I'm on a couch in some office looking room. In the corner of my eye I see blonde hair.
It's Kurapika!!
"Kurapika??" I try to sit up but he stops me. "Don't, you need your rest." Kurapika gives me a semi smile. "Y/n..."
"Yeah?" Oh no, here it comes. The dreaded confrontation. "What were you doing with the Phantom Troupe?"
...
After a second of thinking I start making a confused face. "Huh?" Time to play dumb. "The Phantom Troupe, you were just with them??" Kurapika repeats himself as if to give me some sort of recollection. "I was?"
"Do you not remember anything from tonight?" He questions, concern written all over his face. "I remember being in a car... and then everything going black..?"
It feels horrible to lie to him like this, but he can't know. Not yet at least... "That son of a bitch, I'll kill him!" Kurapika shouts, speed walking out of the room, and slamming the door.
Oh no, I totally forgot about Uvo! I hope he's okay! Knowing Kurapika, he probably didn't do anything major to harm him.
I can hear yelling from the other room, this can't be good!" I hop off the couch and place the wet towel down on the coffee table next to it. Making my way to the door, I press my ear up against it.
"You rotten son of a bitch, what did you do to her??!!" Kurapika shouts with fury. "HA! I didn't do shit, blondy." Uvo chuckles loudly.
...
I end up overhearing a whole ass investigation. It wasn't really interesting though, just back and forth argument and some bitch talking about heart beats. I zoned out on the couch for the last hour so I don't know if Uvo said anything about knowing me. I really hope he hasn't... but is that the most important thing right now?
I'm lying to one of my best friends, a friend whom I owe my life to, about my whole fucking identity. I'm pathetic.I don't know what to do though! I don't know if it's a good idea to tell him about Chrollo... I should get it over with though. I have to do this, if I don't, the truth may come out in a way I don't want it to.
"Y/n." Kurapika says, opening the door. I stand up from the couch to greet Kurapika. "I remember now." I don't look at him.
"I was told a bit about it, but I'll let you speak." He approaches me, gesturing me to sit back down on the couch with him.
"Before I start, can you promise me something?"
"It depends what it is." Kurapika stares at me with curiosity. "Please promise not to hate me." I mutter. "I would never hate you, Y/n." He assures, hand on mine.
"I was with the Troupe tonight because...
the leader is my brother."
...
I can feel my heart thumping rapidly in my chest. I can hear it! It's like that Edgar Allen Po story, The Tell-Tale Heart. Where that guy killed the man with the strange eye, hid him under the floorboards, but the beating wouldn't stop. Chrollo and I read that story about a billion times as kids.
"I-I see... does Leorio.."
"I told him just today actually." Fuck. I can see his eyes glowing gradually through his hair. "And you chose to keep this secret for how long??" Kurapika tries to keep his tone calm, but struggles with it.
"I have no idea, I-"
"Please excuse me." Kurapika gets up and heads straight for the door. "Kurapika wait- Please!" I try to follow but he slams the door right in my face. Goddamit! He must think I'm one of them.
I can't let him not know the truth. I open the door and start following right after him. "Kurapika wait up!" I turn my fast walk to a jog as I'm trying to keep up with him. "Please, just give me a second to explain!" I finally get close to him and try to grab his shoulder but.
"Not. Right. Now." He grabs my wrist with an iron grip, eyes gleaming a beautiful yet terrifying scarlet.
