"Oh, I see..." A sigh left my lips after listening to their explanation, apparently they had to beat this really strong dude and asked Hisoka to help. The perv decided to agree since he was waiting for something... Why wouldn't he though... Strong people are his type. "Well you shouldn't trust Hisoka, okay?" Killua and Gon both smiled and nodded. Good kids, they seemed to be having fun.

"Now we have to ask team Tsezgerra if they want to join!" The excited children left to meet the men with the matching outfits, and I approached the fuchsia-haired man.

"Well, well, Chrollo's friend and Illumi's toy~. Isn't life going well for you, little birdie~?" I blinked before releasing all my bloodlust, a shriek and a yelp rose on the background. That didn't bother me, Hisoka released his nen, as if this was a competition on size. It was a crazy sweet bubble-gum pink but clearly as dangerous as Illumi's.

"I don't like you, clownie~ And I know you're here waiting for something to happen, maybe for the troupe to find some nen exorcist?" His golden eyes sparkled, and he pulled himself closer. His chest barely touching mine.

"Oya~ this little birdie knows stuff... You seem to be glowing, something happened with Illumi?" The most disgusting wink followed, of course the horny clown would somehow guess when sexual stuff happened. I kept my poker face yet my bloodlust betrayed me and grew larger and darker. He couldn't dim his scornful smile as he continued, "I'll meet the ones you want to see soon, but as they search why don't you have some fun with me?"

His hand reached to touch my H/C hair and I gracefully caught it, using only the strength needed to keep his long nails and pale hands from my hair. I knew he'd probably have the time of his life if I let my rage blear my judgement.

"What a masochistic clown you are, sweetie..." He seemed to pout for a moment, but his signature mocking smile showed up seconds later. "About having fun, I will gladly have fun with the strongest of you all, or maybe with a farmer in the fields... Ahh such a hard choice~ What do you think? Anyway, why don't you contact them so I can get going?"

"Oh~ but don't worry, I'll fight Chrollo first... and then Illumi~ so wait a bit more and I'll tell you who's the strongest~"

I smirked, "What if you lose to one of them?"

His smile turned more sickening at the thought, his bloodlust matching mine in strength, "That's to be decided hehe~ And I told you, I'm helping these unripe fruits, you can tag along and after that we'll meet the spiders.~"

I rolled my eyes and tossed his arm away. It wouldn't hurt to tag along and get to know Killua's friend. My E/C eyes landed on a small blonde girl, wearing a pink frilly dress. She was powerful, I could feel it. A smile formed on my face as I skipped next to her and away from the creep. "Hello! I'm Y/N, are you Killua's friend?"

She returned the smile, "I'm Biscuit, I trained him and Gon."

"Oh, I see... Interesting, well would you mind if I tag along with you guys for a while?"

"Not at all, why don't you help out too?" As she asked that both Gon and Killua walked closer, overhearing her proposal. From what I saw they had been jumping around in the air, competing to see who reached higher.

"Oh yes! Y/N deals with brother lots of times. Must be very strong, can you help?!" The white-haired kid excitedly announced to his friend. I hadn't had the time to pass the message to Zeno about Killua, but I would only spend one more day on that house over my grave.

A pale muscular arm landed on my shoulders, and I saw his white hand and nails, as I heard Hisoka's annoying voice. "I find it more interesting that this sweet bird is friends with the Spiders, you know the guy who almost broke your arm?" His gaze stopped on Gon. "He was Y/N's mentor. Unbelievable right?~"

Both kids seemed to take in the information, now wary of me. Unbelievable was this damn clown, spouting shit like that. "Says the man who wants to fight the Spider's leader just for the thrill of it... Want to talk about danger, perverted clown?"

That seemed to lighten the mood but I could feel that these people would keep their guards up at all times when near me. "Well let's just get this over with then, we have to beat people at sports, right?"

The group had a plan already, when we reached the large gym building there were 15 people, they had recruited some other people to do nothing at all just to have the right number of participants. When inside my gaze landed on the muscular man with short black hair, he was strong and not just physically. As the rounds moved forward, boxing, basketball and such I kept an attentive eye out for that man. Soon enough a large dude rebelled and revealed that Greed Island was in fact not a game. I wasn't that surprised, the setting of the game seemed weird from the beginning.

The guy they called Razor killed him with one hit, showing off his power to the cowering convicts he controlled I could guess. Hisoka explained that to Gon and Killua who seemed genuinely surprised. A soft smile spread on my lips, they had a lot to learn but they'd manage with their talent, for sure.

Dodgeball time arrived, and the useless people who were just filling in chickened out, leaving us with one less participant to play. Some of the matching uniform men asked them to stay but after witnessing Razor's power they wanted nothing to do with us.

Thankfully one of the people who stayed materialized a monkey like being to stand in for one more, which was allowed by Razor since all his team was made that way.

The referee explained the rules, and Killua posed one more. Soon the game started and Razor granted us the ball, which was very suspicious. The monkey man grabbed and hit two humanoids in Razor's team.

"Okay..." And the monkey man seemed rather shaken at Razor's actions. "I'm ready to defeat you now!"

"Heh, that's funny." This dude was over, already boosting with confidence as the game had barely started and the ball hadn't been in Razor's hands. Dumb and inexperienced. I rolled my eyes. The man used his nen on the ball and threw it to Razor, why give him the ball? How dumb could he be? Razor caught it with one hand, and everyone gasped except me and Hisoka, who also seemed quite bored with all this.

"Right then, time to counterattack." Razor's aura was purple, and I saw everyone flinch when he surrounded the ball with it. It was about time we got rid of the pleasantries.
