(though whether or not he even existed in the first place is still up for question)

•what happened between Uvogin and Kurapika while they were headed to a new location to fight at

Eat food, drink water, and get 5+ hours of sleep today or else I'll get bullied by writer's block again

So, so basically, basically Uvogin was fighting these shower beats guys, right? And, like, he couldn't move so he was like Bang Bang, pow! Right?

Well, well then one of the shower beats guys were like 😧 and then went pssshcggdsh, and then died, y'know?

And then- then, then Uvogin was like "Rawwrrrr" but, like, really loudly.

So then one of them was like "Ouchie! My eardrums!" And also died.

But the Uvogin still couldn't move, so he was like "Wowza, that's not very good!"

And so Shizuku, certified woman, went "yeehaw" and pulled out her trusty vacuum. And then that problem was solved.

Happy ever after!!

But then, Kurapika was like "I will not allow this!" because he's all emo and can't speak like normal person. And then he went lasso your ass-o

And then Uvogin was like "Wowza, I'm gettin' kidnapped" and got flung into the air.

And so Uvogin was kidnapped. But then the troupe came to save him. And then he was like "Hm, what if I go hunt down my kidnapper!"

And then Shalnark, bumble bee enthusiast, was like "Yippee ki-yay! I'll help!" And that's because Uvogin is, secretly, a bumble bee.

And so Uvo tracked down Kurapika. And then Kurapika went "let's go somewhere far far away."

And Uvo was like, "sure, that sounds safe!"

And that's where we'll start this chapter, pardner.

"Wait here," Kurapika turned on his heel, walking off without another word.

"If you run away, I'll track you down to the ends of the earth," Uvogin warned, leaning forward a bit, "And I won't be so generous to you then."

Kurapika didn't even turn around, still walking as he calmly replied, "Trust me, I have no intentions on running."

"Good."

"Good." Kurapika parroted, resisting the urge to punch the annoying bastard in the face right here and now.

"Good."

"Good- ..just wait here."

Kurapika disappeared down a hallway, coming back a few minutes later. His trusty shovel in hand.

Uvogin just gave him an unimpressed stare, "You're a cocky brat, aren't ya?"

"It'll be necessary for burying you, that's all."

Uvogin snarled, adding an ugly look to his already ugly face. Respectfully.

"I assume I'm driving, since.." Kurapika paused, glancing at Uvogin, looking him up and down analytically, "..I doubt someone like you knows how to drive."

"Oh go fuck yourself."

"I didn't hear a denial. Now hurry up."

Uvogin, albeit reluctantly, followed Kurapika out the room. Down the stairwell, and out the building. Where there was already a car waiting for them.

"You're sitting in the back," Kurapika said as he got in the driver's seat, leaving little room for argument.

"Like hell I am."

—

Uvogin sat in the back.

Apparently the front seat was 'aLrEaDy CaLlEd FoR' by mister shovel.

They drove in silence for about half the ride. Before Uvogin decided he was bored of the deafening silence.

"So.. how old are you?" Uvogin asked abruptly. Looking as ugly as ever.

The chain user glanced at him through the mirror, "I don't see how that is of importance."

Unable to take a hint, or just not caring, Uvogin persisted.

"One of us is going to die tonight anyways, so it doesn't matter." He argued, "We might as well get to know each other."

"I would rather die." The chain user kept acting calm, but Uvogin could see when he gripped the steering wheel just a bit tighter.

"I could make that happen." Uvogin replied almost instinctively.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"...I'm seventeen." Kurapika finally gave in, forcing himself to calm down. He had to wait just a bit longer, and then he'd finally avenge his brethren. Or whatever emo poetic shit he says about murdering the spiders.

"You're a child?" Uvogin just blinked a few times. Sure, the chain user looked young. But Uvogin just assumed he was just baby-faced like Shal was.

"I didn't expect a Phantom Troupe member to have a code against murdering children." The chain user didn't seem to care about keeping his eyes on the road, as he focused solely on Uvogin.

"Oh, I don't." Uvogin reassured, "I'll kill any child at any time. I'll kill all the children. Name a child, I'll kill it. Actually, I'll kill you."

The chain user remained silent for a minute, a bead of sweat on his forehead. After a moment, he spoke up, "Have.. have you ever had a conversation with a normal person before?"

Uvogin blinked, staying silent for a moment before asking, "Why would I do that?"

The chain user just sighed, continuing to drive towards a less populated area. Leaving them in awkward silence once more.

"What's your name?" Uvogin rolled down his window, before rolling it up again, before rolling it down again. Thriving off of the Chain user's annoyance.

"None of your business."

"That's a long name." Uvogin grinned, clearly thinking he was hilarious. The chain user, however, did not. Shooting an icy glare towards him.

"If you must know, it's Kurapika," the chain user—who he know knows as Kurapika—said. Kurapika sped up a bit, now driving 309 (it was actually only 72, dw) miles an hour.

"That's a dumb name." Uvogin leaned back in his seat, paying no mind to the speed they were driving, "You should kill whoever named you, as revenge."

"Even if I wanted to I couldn't," Kurapika said through gritted teeth, gripping the steering wheel harder, "you already killed them."

"Oh thank god." Uvogin happily hummed, not taking the hint. Still fiddling with the window.

"Kill yourself."

"But then we couldn't fight."

"I swear, I'm going to kill you-"

Uvogin didn't give him time to finish that, grinning as he interrupted "Now that's the spirit."

Kurapika let out a low growl, glaring at Uvogin. The much taller man just whistled uncaringly, acting as if he hadn't a care in the world.

"So," Uvogin kept up the conversation, much to his companion's dismay, "what got you into the bodyguard business?"

"It was the quickest way to get to kill you."

"Is your whole life goal really to kill me?" Uvogin finally stopped rolling the window up and down, now more interested in taunting Kurapika "Now I almost feel bad for killing you. Almost."

He didn't feel bad at all.

"You're not going to kill me, I'll win."

"If I had a nickel for every time someone said that, I'd be rich." Uvogin grinned mockingly. "Not that it'd matter, I steal what I want anyways."

The only thing Kurapika had that made him slightly less angry, was that Uvogin was slowly developing back issues from having to stitch in his seat, too tall to sit up straight.

After awhile of Kurapika not responding, Uvogin asked "What is your Nen ability anyway?"

"Not telling," The chain user replied almost instantly, warning in his tone.

"I won't tell anyone, I swear." Uvogin didn't seem to get the idea that Kurapika didn't want Uvogin specifically to know his ability. Even adding, "I pinky promise."

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Pretty please?"

"No."

"Pretty please with a cherry on top?"

"No."

"Rock paper scissors, if I win you tell me your ability?"

"No."

"Can you say anything other than no?"

"N- ..just shut up."

Uvogin just leaned in closer, entering Kurapika's personal space, "And if I don't? And avoid that squid in the road."

Kurapika, who hadn't been paying attention to the road, quickly whipped his head around to see if he was about to hit something, "What squi- ...I despise you."

"Oh you are so easy."

"If I give you a kaleidoscope will you shut up?"

"Why do you carry a kaleidoscope on you?"

"To deal with immature Spiders such as yourself." He absentmindedly swerved out of the way of a flying black cat with glowing red eyes, "Now answer the question."

"..What color is it?"

"..All of them?" Kurapika responded, unsure now. He kept his attention on the road now, only sparing Uvogin a second's glance.

"Betttt," Uvogin whistled, catching the kaleidoscope Kurapika had tossed at his face with ease.

And that, at least, shut Uvogin up for the rest of the trip. Well, except when he randomly proclaimed, "The kaleidoscope's name is now Mr. Wiggles."

Kurapika hadn't dignified that with a response.

The only other noteworthy thing, was that when they arrived at their destination Kurapika had conveniently forgotten to remove the child lock. Keeping Uvogin stuck in the backseat until Uvogin kicked the door off out of annoyance.

Fun Facts:

• If there's any mention of them walking instead of driving, it's because when I first wrote this scene they had chose to walk instead of drive. And I'm not sure if I got all the walking scenes out.

• This Fic would have been out earlier, but I was writing an Adult Trio Wrong Number book, when Wattpad suddenly stopped letting me change text alignment. So I couldn't actually continue writing that without it annoying me, and had to start writing this one instead

• The Author is gaining a kaleidoscope collection so they can give their coworkers more and more kaleidoscopes until their coworkers live in fear of kaleidoscopes (I passive-aggressively give people gifts.)
