Aurora's neck started to ache after craning it for so long. Every pirate was like the one before. Buff, tall and muscular. Especially Razor. Just staring up at him to listen to him talk was a pain, nonetheless the theme of the battle: sports. Something Aurora never did as a child. Working out and hobbies were different from sports that kids played.
"Each of these members will challenge you to a match in their best sport. One win per person! The first side to eight wins will be the victor." The large pale man had explained through his slit eyes as they nodded in understanding.
A tan pirate stepped out of the hoard. "I'm up first ... I'll go with boxing."
"Well, who's up?" Razor asked with a small smile evident on his refined features as he pointed toward the boxing ring. Aurora had done boxing once, it was pretty fun but she didn't know the actual rules of the game. Curiously innocent, she wanted to raise her hand and like before in trick tower, Killua seemed to know this and grabbed her hand before she could raise it, much to her dismay.
Instead, someone from their own group with bleached hair and even tanner skin had voluntarily agreed.
"There's one special rule. You may use any item created by Nen." Razor whom was playing as the referee added as the group protested. The opponent inside the ring held his hands up in surrender toward their protests. "Don't worry. I'll only be using my fists. That rule is a handicap for you. Wanna tag out?" He asked their teammate whom was warming up and shook his head.
"If you wanna tag out, I wanna give this a go." Aurora shouted at him. He showed her no regard as his eyes flickered to his opponent. "This is odd. They seem fairly confident and I don't think that comes without reason." Aurora said cautiously as their team seemed to be winning. The bleached blonde landed a flurry of hits on his opponent, but within that split second when Aurora looked up from her thinking thoughts, her eyes widened.
Not many people saw what happened as their comrade fell to the ground within a single hit. "What just happened?"
"He used teleportation." Killua answered for them. "Teleportation?" The blonde that had helped Aurora before had asked. The girl nodded. "He teleported his fist with a short uppercut. All he wanted to do was land a knockout counter strike. I told you. Should've let me try it out." Aurora sighed as she massaged her temples.
"It was obvious." Killua said as a matter of fact, surprised that no one else noticed it, giving the Pirates one win.
Concluding that there was no way that their current group could win, they intentionally lost every game to leave as their group or temporary alliance had disbanded, not wanting to do this anymore, leaving the original four and an additional man who's name she had remembered earlier to be Goreinu. He was the only one who stayed that was willing to help them.
Aurora turned to him momentarily. "You seem like a nice guy." She pointed to the man whom was surprised for a moment before chuckling. "Don't misunderstand my intentions. I just want to get this card so that team Genthru doesn't first. I'm still weary about you children." He replied to her blunt compliment as Killua smacked her over the head, causing her to whimper.
