IM SO SORRY ABOUT THE PICTURE, BUT I COULDN'T RESIST HGFHSNSNJ-

\\Annya (POV)\\

I carefully stood next to Gon and our whole group watched as Kurapika stood in front of his masked enemy. The guy still had his hand cuffs on and coat, but I noticed some blue things near his hands. Is he sick?

The hand cuffs disappears as the man took off his coat. Leorio freaked out at the view as I stared blankly. What the-

"YAAAAH!" A blue man with muscles shouted. He had a tattoo on his chest with 19 red hearts. He had also green hair around his forehead and a very weird statue.

Majitani. Multiple crimes. 108 year sentence.

I frowned at the guy as he grasped out something, very weird. This Majitani guy is really a weirdo...

"T-that is one freaky body!" Leorio gasped as he and Tompa looked hella scared. Gon and I where rather surprised.

"Yeah, and face!" Killua pointed out.

Kurapika was yet calm, looking at the huge man with blank expression.

"Ya see this kid?" Majitani asked. "I've killed 19 people so far," he said as I lifted my head. So that's what those tattoos are for. "But it's such an uneven number, to tell the truth it kinda bugs me!" He exclaimed as I shot my eyes. "Hehe! I've been waiting to meet number 20 for a while!" He squeaked as a maniacal laugh escaped his huge mouth with only a few teeth.

I tilted my head to the side. Is this guy trying to scare Kurapika?

"Oh great, we're dealing with a serial killer..." Leorio grinned his teeth.

I only glanced at him.

"The only way we do this, is if we put our life's to the line! It's all enough, ya hear me, you brat?!" He laughed like a sick pig. "Give me blood, spill and trance, and sweet agony!" He yelled.

I calmly looked at the guy. "Looks like Kurapika won't have a lot of problem..." I murmured so no one could hear me.

"Very well," Kurapika said as the blue guy stopped laughing and widened his eyes. "You can decide how we settle this. And I will accept it," Kurapika said casually, yet respectfully.

"Hehe!" Majitani grinned. "You've got some balls, kid!"

I slowly I inhaled and exhaled, trying to control the grin on my face. That sounded so wrong that it's even funny-

"Then your accepting a death match? We go until one of us dies, or admits defeat, and not a second earlier you got me?!" He explained. I raised a brow. Why is this talk taking so long? "However, don't think that surrender or admit of defeat will stop me! Never has, and never will, so get it out of your head right now!" I blinked. Yea, sure...

"Fine, I accept," Kurapika said stopping Majitani from laughing. Kurapika then throw away his long blue top, and stood with his white stiff clothes. I looked at my white shirt and blue skirt and decided that I'm never going to wear this again.

For another thought Majitani looked like he was kicked in the guts. It seemed like he was somehow confused and pained. "Looks like someone's struggling," I mounted as I walked over to Killua. He slightly grinned.

"Hold on! There's a thing I forgot to mention!" The blue guy shouted. "Absolutely, no weapons are allowed! So this has to be a simple, fist fight!" Ahh. I see. So he is worrying about Kurapika winning or not being scared? Oh well. I expected a little more.

"Even if I'm an examiner, I'm still a prisoner. That means that I'm not allowed to carry weapons!" Majitani stated.

"That makes sense. I understand," Kurapika calmly said as he took out two sticks collected by rope. "Is there anything else you forgot? If not, I'd like to get started."

I officially stan Kurapika, I laughed under my breath.

Suddenly I heard a yell and a air swing as my head lifted from my palm to see Majitani standing in a... whatever position that was, and somehow growing, his muscles? Kurapika didn't seem much impressed, by what's happening.

"Hey guys... is Kurapika going to be okay?" Leorio asked as my eyes shifted to him, my face still facing the fight. "Cuz if you ask me this guy looks pretty dangerous..."

"I wouldn't worry about it much," Gon said. I slightly flinched at his voice and now fully stared at the boy.

"Why not?" Leorio asked as I sight in annoyance.

"Haven't you noticed yet? He looks like a big talker, nothing dangerous," I calmly frowned at him.

"Yea, whenever I'm looking at him I don't get the 'chills' or anything from him," Gon agreed as we both stared at the arena again.

"What is that suppose to mean?" Leorio asked bowing his head between us.

I saw Killua smile a little. Why is he smiling? I looked over to him. He was again watching the fight. Might as well do so. I'm gonna ask him later what was that about...

I saw as Majitani now grown more. "I think it's time for you to show, my secret weapon!" He shouted lifting his head from the ground.

Majitani jumped in the air as he shouted something I couldn't understand.

"There he comes!" Leorio yelled.

Kurapika quickly jumped away, as Majitani punched, the place were Kurapika just was. The ground collapsed as I shuttered a little. It was as if the mans hand was made out of metal.

"Oh my god!" Tompa stuttered.

"He just punched a damn hole in the floor!" Leorio excavated, all scaredy-cat. Killua and Gon didn't look that impressed, nor did I, but for truth, I wasn't expecting that.

Majitani, while mischievously smiling, stood up and turned around as my eyes widened in schock. Kurapika gasped with me.

On his back there was a huge black spider tattoo, with 12 legs and a skull. That... tattoo...

"Look at his tattoo! A spider with 12 legs! And that means..." Leorio said out my mind.

"Yeah. I recognise it," Tompa said, his voice as scared as Leorio's. "Anybody who wants to be a Hunter, has heard all about tattoos, like that one... it's the symbol worn by-"

"-the members of the Phantom Troupe. The most mischievous and dangerous group around Hunters."

Everyone stared at me, as my eyes darkened: memories of a dark haired man with a spider tattoo on his shoulder, came flashing to me. I closed my eyes, shutting out those terrifying times.

"...Yeah there is no doubt about it," I heard Leorio say as my eyes again opened. "In fact I... I heard them straight from Kurapika."

My eyes shot up to Kurapika. Is Phantom Troupe somehow related to him?

My eyes again looked at the tattoo on Majitani back. My state went back to normal as I carefully analysed the tattoo. Kurapika on the other hand was starting to worry me. I sensed some sad and mad aura coming from him. I have a really bad feeling about this...

"Hehehe! Ash, what's wrong? Can't talk anymore?" Majitani offensively teased with a evil hint, as Kurapika stood up from the ground. "Names Majitani's! One of the Phantom Troupe! That first strike was just an introduction!" He yelled smiling. Kurapika. Please don't listen to him... "This is your last chance to give up! And if you do... I'm still willing to-"

He stopped in the middle of his sentence as his eyes widened. Mines too, in shock. How come... I thought that their whole clan was...

Kurapika stared at Majitani with red glowing eyes. I felt as tension stored between them.

"Ng'hey! What's wrong with you?!" The blue man shouted. "What are you?!-" he gasped as Kurapika disappeared in his point of view.

Then suddenly he was grabbed by his face and brought up in the air by a familiar blonde. Kurapika was never before so mad... I don't think he ever was mad before!

"Wait! Wait I just!- please don't do it! I beg you please no!"

Kurapika then punched him hard in the face as I stood away and grabbed onto Killua's shirt.

Kurapika stood on the ground while Majitani rolled and bounced to the ground. Everyone except Killua seemed to be shocked. I closed my eyes quickly calming myself down. I slowly let go of my grip on Killua and stood, again, next to him.

"Take this to heart," Kurapika said coldly. "First, a genuine Phantom Troupe tattoo has its members number scribed on the spiders back. Second, they don't bother telling the people they've killed, because it's un relevant to them. And third. Don't ever mention the Phantom Troupe to me ever again. If you do," he turned his eyes still glowing red. "I will kill you, with my bare hands."

Aye captain, I thought. Everyone, including me where shocked.

"Oh wow..." Tompa scrubbed out.

"Kurapika..." Leorio said with pure passion. I turned to him. Do they have a close friendship? Or maybe...

"Yea, I saw that coming that from a mile away," Killua said.

"Hmph," I mounted. Gon seemed to be absorbing everything carefully, just as I was.

Kurapika finally turned around, as he took his blue top, put it on and walked over to us.

"Hey are you...ok?" Leorio asked.

"Yes. I'm not injured," Kurapika answered with his top on.

"Is it safe to be around you right now?" Leorio asked stepping away, almost dumping into me.

Kurapika again sight as he put his hand on his forehead. "From the first moment, I saw that tattoo, I knew he wasn't nearly as powerful as he looked... and in my mind, from the start, knew the tattoo was fake..." he said as Gon and Leorio leaned over.

I walked to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. He smiled sadly at me, then again going back to his sad expression. "But as soon as I saw that spider... my vision went almost completely red," Kurapika said, cracking up.

"Well, no ones blaming you for that," Leorio tried to lighten him up.

"If I'm perfectly honest, whenever I see a spider, any spider... all my rush collapses and I turn primal."

I let go of his shoulder as we all looked nervously at him.

"You should've told us. Like a long time ago..." Leorio said as I nodded.

Kurapika again sight as he walked up to a wall and rested to it. "It can only mean one thing. The rage inside me remains as strong as it was before. I suppose... I should be happy..."

"I think we should keep Kurapika away from any spiders, from now on," Gon whispered to us, as I stood between Killua and Leorio.

"Oh, yeah," Leorio agreed.

"We should really," I whispered as well.

Majitani was lying on the ground knocked out. What a poor... ya know what nah he ain't poor-

The next one we choose to go was Leorio. If we win another fight, we'll pass.

I guess it's up to Leorio now.
