The Chase
You walked behind the group, looking at everything going on around you as Shizuku spoke.
"So... The direction of the hotel..." She mumbled as you fell further behind.
"Stop wandering away." Chrollo huffed.
"Why?" Your voice had a whine to it. Everyone had just been walking in silence towards some place that Chrollo knew but hadn't bothered to say to you.
"You are most literally the easiest target." He rubbed his pounding head. "Get over here."
Rolling your eyes, you walked closer to Chrollo, who then in turn looped your arm through his.
"You're like a child." He groaned.
"Says the guy who can't just admit he wants to hold my hand." You snipped back.
After another few minutes, Chrollo sighed.
"Hana, try not to get in the way."
"You are such an ass sometimes! What hotel are we even going to? I wouldn't get in the way if I knew what the hell was going on, you know!" You grumbled as Chrollo tightened his grip on you.
"He's moving!" Machi noticed.
"He's going down slowly." Kortopi mentioned. "Exiting through the elevator?"
"Let's hurry, Danchou!" Nobunaga turned to look back at Chrollo.
"Everyone be prepared to intervene in your area. From this point on, the hunt has begun." Chrollo smiled. "Pakunoda. When we have him, I want you to question him about Uvo."
"Right." She nodded.
"Next... Nobunaga, do as you wish." Chrollo uttered another command. "Be prepared to run, Hana."
You groaned.
"GO!!" Your eardrum practically burst and your arm was pulled out of the socket.
You thought it would be much more difficult to run through this crowd, but this was easily remedied by all of the Troupe running on the walls like some group of super villains. You couldn't really do it, but you could be dragged along like a ragdoll. And so you were.
"Direction: 2 o'clock. Speed: 40 km/h." Kortopi reported. "He got in a car."
"We're being followed." Chrollo noted.
"Since when!?" Machi looked over, surprised.
"We jumped in head-first, and didn't pay attention. Damn." Shizuku cursed as she ran beside Machi.
"Where's the chain guy!? In front of behind?!" Nobunaga asked quickly.
"Who is the chain guy?! What is happening, Chrollo?" Your voice shook as your body desperately tried to keep up with his.
"Chain guy is the person who killed my friend. We're going to the hotel he was last known to be at. Pay attention." He scolded you.
"Danchou!" Nobunaga took out his sword.
"Nobu! Paku! Kortopi! Follow the one in the front!" Suddenly, Chrollo, Machi, Shizuku and you all came to an abrupt halt, forcing you to run into the brick wall known as Danchou.
"Ouch!" You would have fallen if Chrollo hadn't gripped your arm so much.
"Shh." He glared at you. "Do you see him?"
"Only his shadow... Not his form. One in the alley." Shizuku had her vacuum cleaner out. A very weird weapon... But I suppose if my nen can instantly kill someone, then why can't hers be a vacuum cleaner? You thought.
"One behind the bin." Machi reported.
"Don't loosen your Gyo." He commanded.
"Right." They answered together.
"Also, feel free to take a look at Hana. You'll find her nen to be very interesting."
You blushed and stepped closer to Chrollo.
"Ah. Her eyes. They're just spilling nen."
"Like a pretty waterfall. Are you feeling sick standing in it, Danchou?" Shizuku asked.
"Oh? No. I suppose I do not. If I were to get a full dose of it, I'm sure I would." He stood still.
Then, a young boy jumped out.
