I woke up to the sound of shouts a couple times, but luckily I was able to slip back into the dream land with ease, that was until I got too curious about something and glanced up at it.

It wasn't too interesting, just a crack in the wall across from me that looked like a funny face. Though after I had tried to fall back asleep, my body suddenly adapted to being awake. I could hear the sound of someone crunching on a chip faintly, my body wouldn't sit still, the light was too bright against my eyes, and my throat hurt.

This sucks.

The sound of high pitched giggling interrupted my self pity moment and I glanced over, spotting Leorio with his back towards me, his hand holding out a fist, and a lady across from him with her hand holding out flatly in front of his fist.

I blinked, starting the the scene in front of my blankly.

'Did Leorio just lose in rock, paper, scissors?'

I stood up and walked over to the edge of the platform my group of zoo animals was on, plus Tampon who was probably like one of the poop balls the chimpanzees throw so I guess he counts a bit.

I cupped my hands around my mouth and shouted out. "Leorio you suck!" The man tensed before swiftly turning around. A loud, 'HA?!' escaped his mouth and I spoke up again. "How do you lose in a game of rock paper scissors? You suck!" Visible tic marks appeared on his head and he stomped his foot like a child. "She cheated! I didn't loose I was cheated!" He screamed back at me angrily.

Rolling my eyes, I let my hands fall from my face back down to my sides.

I heard Kurapika sigh next to me. "Now we have fifty hours less than before." I paused at his words, glancing back at Leorio. Great. This idiot not only lost, but also took our time away. If I didn't know any better I'd think he was trying to sabotage us like Tampon.

The bridge started to extend from our platform to the middle arena again and Leorio walked back over with his hands in his pockets, murmuring angry curse words and jumbles of other things I couldn't understand.

When he finally got to our side, I shot him a look and he just stared back. 

Tampon chuckled softly. "How pathetic."

Lay-Oreo perked up at his words and shot him a full on glare. "What did you-." He paused mid sentence, his harsh expression falling into one of unsure reluctance before he turned his head away. "Whatever." 

I stared for a solid thirteen seconds and fourty one milliseconds before glancing back at Tampon and speaking. "Aren't you the one who gave up?" The period product paused, glancing back at me with a tense expression. "I could've beaten him if I tried." He spoke, a slight grin making it's way onto his lips.

I quirked a brow. That was such an obviously and pathetic lie.

"Really? Maybe when we get out of here I could find you a contestant to spar with. I'd love to watch." I gave a small smile. 

Not really. Fights are boring. And the winner is always to cocky, the loser never accepts that they lost, they always gotta say something like, 'yeah but like my ankle was sprained, if it wasn't I would've won.' Like, shut up for real.

His grin fell quickly, his cocky expression was replaced with a much more unsure one.

I turned my head away, not wanting to talk anymore. At least he got the message. 

"Hey." I heard the voice of Killua. I looked over and saw his blue eyes already staring back at me. "You wanna fight the next guy?" He asked, making me hum in thought, switching over to look at the other side of the arena.
