"E-eh?!, Aiko-San?" Kurapika questioned, two question marks popping up beside his head.

I hug him even harder than before. His soothing heartbeat and soft chest calmed my excitement down.

"Hi again, it's been a while." I say happily.

"Why are you here." He coldly says.

"What?, I'm here to see you of course, remember the agreement from the hunter exam?" I asked, confused.

"No, i meant why are you here. I'm doing my job right now, I can't see to you." He said.

What happend that made him so much colder than before?

"Oh, well, sorry then. I'll take my leave."

I start walking down the other hallway and to the elevators when I fell someone grab my sleeve.

"Wha-

Kurapika?"

"Wait, don't go."

"Ok."

I sit down next to his standing figure at the door he's guarding and sigh.

"A lot has happend since we last met." I say.

"Yes."

"I see you learnt how to use nen."

"You knew about it? When?" He asks.

"Since I was a little kid." I answer.

Kurapika sighs in wonder as he rests against the wall.

"What's your ability?" I ask, acting dumb.

"I cannot tell you, only after I have achieved what I want." He says.

"Oh, you mean killing the spiders?" I say, twirling a lock of hair around my finger.

"Yes, do you have info on them?" He asks hopefully.

"Well, I know the head, Chrollo Lucilfer."

"How do you know him?"

"I just do. But I'll warn you, he's dangerous and he could kill you. So please be careful." I plead.

Silence.

Of course he wouldn't listen to a silly warning like that.

"What is your nen?" Kurapika questions, breaking the awkward silence.

"It's a bow and arrow ability."

I'm not lying, because I can infact still use it but it's just not as powerful and a little harder to control. But that's because I'm a specialist now.

"Do you hate me because I didn't tell you about nen?"

"I don't hate you."

A small smile formed onto my lips at those words.

He doesn't hate me.

That's good.

"I should probably go."

He nods, his blond hair brushing his cheeks.

A flicker of scarlet flashing in his eyes.

Gettting up, I head back downstairs to meet my bodyguard and a harsh scolding.

It has been several days since I have met with Kurapika.

The big black sky reached over the city, showering a cloud of stars amongst its darkness, lighting up the sky.

The sounds of cars, people and electronical devices, bustled in the night.
