⠀⠀⠀With only four candidates left, the election draws to its conclusion and has an unexpected turn when Leorio receives the support from two of the other remaining contestants, who are eager to prevent Pariston from winning. Meanwhile, Killua and Alluka finally arrive at the hospital where Gon is being treated.

⠀⠀⠀Alluka finally woke up and rubbed the sleepiness from her eyes. She looked at the person next to her and smiled lazily.

⠀⠀⠀"Oh, it's onii-chan."

⠀⠀⠀Killua smiled at the younger Zoldyck member. "Morning. Did you sleep well?"

⠀⠀⠀"Uh-huh." Alluka looked at her surroundings. "Where are we?"

⠀⠀⠀"The hospital. My friend is here, sleeping. He's very sick. I want to help get him on his feet again." Killua said, faking a smile. Alluka looked ahead and saw where Killua's friend was.

⠀⠀⠀"You want Nanika to take over." Alluka pouted, "Boo! Just when I was able to spend time with you!"

⠀⠀⠀Killua looked at her, "Don't worry. Like I said... We'll be together from now on. And that's a promise. Please help me."

⠀⠀⠀With no other choice, Alluka let Nanika take her place and Killua stood up and offered her a hand. Nanika placed her hand in his and Killua started to lead her.

⠀⠀⠀He opened the curtains and looked down at the bloody bandages that were covering Gon's whole face.

⠀⠀⠀"Hand... Hand..." Nanika said and Killua searched for Gon's hand under the blood stained blanket.

⠀⠀⠀He gently took out Gon's hand and it scared/shocked him that he had to clench his teeth that were about to clatter. Gon's hand was so damaged. It was really skinny, brown and shriveled.

⠀⠀⠀"Please, Nanika... Please heal Gon!"

⠀⠀⠀"Aye." Nanika's hands were glowing and she gently touched Gon's hand.

⠀⠀⠀Upon starting to heal Gon, a huge energy emits from Nanika, which is so powerful that everyone in the vicinity can feel it.

⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀--❣--❣--❣--

⠀⠀⠀'What is this? I've never felt anything like this before...' A blonde using crutches said in his head as he stopped in front of [Name]'s room and felt Nanika's powers.

⠀⠀⠀A small bead of sweat trailed down his cheek, 'How scary.'

⠀⠀⠀Then the ground started to violently shake which made him lose his balance.

⠀⠀⠀"Ow...!" He hissed and gasped sharply when he saw a ghostly image of [Name]. Actually, everyone she had met, except for Gon, Killua, Alluka, and Ging, were seeing the ghostly image of [Name] and each person had a different message.

⠀⠀⠀"Hiyoshi, with the last minutes of my life, I would like to say... Thank you. I must say... I was pretty fucked up in this lifetime, but hopefully in my next life, I won't be like I was before. And to make sure you don't do anything ridiculous, I will have to erase your memories of me and that'll immediately make my existence vanish... As if I was never here in the first place." [Name]'s voice was gentle and soft, almost compared to a whisper.

⠀⠀⠀Hiyoshi's purple eyes were wide, completely shocked. He clenched his teeth and instead of being sad, he was mad.

⠀⠀⠀"Why? Why do all this?! Can't you just heal yourself?! Gon is going to be healed soon meanwhile you're already saying goodbye to us! That's not fair! Why should you die while your brother lives?" He yelled and she wondered why was he being so mad about it.

⠀⠀⠀"Hiyoshi... Since I went through a lot of different worlds, all those other [Name]s I killed... Their injuries came back and... Well, my body is too damaged. My Nen is also gone so I can't heal myself and the only way to live is for me to go to another world."

⠀⠀⠀Hiyoshi stood up and used his clutches to support him as he knit his brows. "Then, do it! Go to other world and meet us again!" His eyes widen, "You can control time, right?! You can restart everything and--"

⠀⠀⠀"I can't, Hiyoshi... I can't. I can only go back for a couple of seconds, but what good is that? Time manipulation is complicated, Hiyoshi. Plus, if I go to another world, this world will be destroyed and each world is different." She smiled softly, "Gon is really close to finding Ging. Killua saved a person I love as a sister. I can't let those opportunity go to waste. That's all I've wanted to achieve."

⠀⠀⠀Hiyoshi let out a frustrated groan, "What am I supposed to do if you're gone? Remember the thing about me recreating my basement? I'm planning to help kids who need help and I'll also make toys. Basically, my servants are going to use the basement to make clothes, dolls, and etcetera."

⠀⠀⠀"...Hiyoshi--"

⠀⠀⠀The blonde forced himself to laugh as he looks down. "And you know what? The first item I was going to release was a doll of you. And do you know the reason why?" Hiyoshi let out a shaky sigh and looked up at [Name].

⠀⠀⠀"It's because I want to show people who saved my messed up life. She gave me hope and a reason to keep living."

⠀⠀⠀Hiyoshi noticed [Name]'s ghostly image was slowly dissolving so he kept talking.

⠀⠀⠀"She saved me and it's normal to develop feelings for the person who saved you. [Name], w-what I'm trying to say is that... I love you!" By now, Hiyoshi was blushing and [Name]'s eyes widen slightly. The blonde covered his mouth and looked to the side.

⠀⠀⠀"I-I respect your relationship with Killua, s-so I try to stay away from y-you, but I can't and it makes me feel mixed emotions. I feel jealous, mad, and sad, but I try not to show it cause... At least, I'm friends with you. I guess that's better than being strangers with you." Hiyoshi lowered his hand and she took a step closer to him.

⠀⠀⠀[Name] cupped his face and made him look at her. She smiled softly and Hiyoshi could feel her slowly removing the memories of her which made him start to cry.

⠀⠀⠀"That's a start, Hiyoshi. Helping other children and making toys... I'm sorry for not being able to return your feelings, but like you said..." [Name] let go of his face and grabbed one of his hands, "At least, we're friends. I promise I'll always be there for you and the others." She wiped his tears with her thumb and went on her tippy toes to kiss Hiyoshi's forehead.

⠀⠀⠀"Goodbye, Hiyoshi." She gave him a closed-eye smiled and when she let go of his hand, she removed his memories and vanished into thin air.

⠀⠀⠀Hiyoshi blinked and when he felt his tears streaming down his face, he wondered why he was crying. He rubbed his eyes and noticed he was standing in front of a empty room. He shrugged it off and started to head out of the hospital.

⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀--❣--❣--❣--

⠀⠀⠀Leorio is about to win the election, but loses all motivation to continue after a fully healed Gon appears before him, thanks to the power of Alluka, opening the way to Pariston's victory. Surrounded by his friends and the other hunters who celebrate his recovery, Gon meets his father at last.

⠀⠀⠀Gon apologizes to Ging for failing to save Kite. Ging instructs him to apologize to Kite himself instead, affirming that he will wait for him to return.

⠀⠀⠀Pariston wins the election, but renounces in favor of fellow Zodiac Cheadle. And Killua seals Alluka's powers away to ensure that she can live a normal life beside him.
