We got back to the base. Everyone was waiting for us and as usual, Shalnark welcome us back with grin as he rush towards us for a hug. Shalnark was happy as always...I look over to the slide and saw Elaine pouting in the corner of the room. I let out a sigh before walking slowly to my spot on the stone. I sat down and relax for just a second or two when....
"My Queen~" a creepy voice whisper softly into my ear. I jump up from my spot and look back to see who it was.
"Hisoka?!" I shouted his name in shock. All eyes were turn towards his direction.
"What are you doing here?" Nobunaga growl as he's prepare to take out his sword.
"My~My~" Hisoka chuckled.
"Stop it" Chrollo steps into the room and look at Nobunaga.
"Tsk" Nobunaga slowly slower his guard.
"Hisoka is here to help us with another mission." Chrollo said as he walk into the middle of the room.
"A new mission?" Shalnark tilt his head a bit.
"Yes. I was informed by Hisoka that there will be someone with a mysterious power that I want." Chrollo said.
"..." I stare at him. He saw that I was staring at him blankly and chuckle a bit.
"Yuki, Do you know my power?" Chrollo ask me and I nodded.
"The Bandit's Secret...right?" I answered him.
"Yes. And do you know what it is?" he ask me once again.
"....Stealing the powers of any Nen users that your interested in...Just like how you obtain the Lovely Ghostwriter from Neon Nostrade....the daughter a certain mafia clan....right?" I said as everyone was shocked by what I said.
"...How did you know?" Chrollo asked me as Hisoka chuckled.
"YOU TOLD OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT US?!" Nobunaga was furious at Hisoka.
"He didn't tell me anything" I quickly said to calm Nobunaga down.
"Then how did you know?" Machii walk up to me. I stare blankly at her for a few seconds.
"...My guts?" I replied. I 'm guessing it wasn't a good enough answer to give them that's why Nobunaga stomp my way and grab me by the collar of mt turtle neck.
"YOU!!!JUST HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT US?!?!" Nobunaga shouted in my face. I didn't say anything.
"Let her go" the brat suddenly appear the the slide of me, pointing his sharp fingers at Nobunaga's neck.
"Nobunaga...Feitan..." Chrollo said their name just once and both of them lower their hands. "Your guts huh" Chrollo said.
"Something like that. I could sort of guess what happen...kinda like foreseeing the future? but it's pretty vague." I answered him.
"I see" Chrollo rub his chin.
"...Well, that and because the news talked about how Light Nostrade...Neon's father went though a breakdown after buying something from the auction and can't afford to pay back the money....or something like that" I blabbered.
"And how's that got to do with you knowing that Neon's ability was stolen?" SHalnark asked me.
"That's quite simple. In his previous interviews he said the his daughter was what made his organization so successful...if something were to happen to her...the organization could collapse." I replied. All of them, especially Nobunaga seems to calm down a bit.
"And how did you know about the Lovely Ghostwriter?" Shizuku tilt her head slightly to the side.
"Was a guess" I replied. Everyone had the look on their faces like they didn't believe in what I said. Its true that I knew about it from the start, since my guts are never wrong, but the fact about her power was conformed by Kurapika who is working as her 'employee' or bodyguard.
"...We'll leave it at that." Chrollo claps his hand once. " You want to explain about the mission?" Chrollow look at Hisoka.
"HAi, hai~" Hisoka walk over to Chrollo and stand beside him. "Well, I've been hearing rumors of this group of people that travel from town-to-town bringing everyone joy~"
"And what's that got to do with the mission?" Phinks was a bit pissed.
"Be patient." Hisoka pointed towards Phinks and gave him a creepy smile. " The leader of the group apparently have the ability to suck the joy out of the audience and can use them as his little doll" Hisoka kept on speaking.
"Dolls?" I asked.
"Yes my Queen, dolls~" He grinned at me. " He can see with the 'doll's' eyes, where they are, what they are doing,etc..." he added.
"...So basically sucking the soul out of the body" Elaine said.
"Not quite, the audience are a bit somber but they are still very alive~" Hisoka grab a deck of cards from his pocket and starts shuffling.
"...And you want that?" I turn towards Chrollo as he nodded in return.
" It would be of help when seeking information or going on missions" Chrollo said. I kinda understand that but isn't it going into al ot of problem just to make the people happy?
"So...what group are they? The mafia? An organization?" Shalnark was excited.
"Nope~ It's the CIRCUS~!" Hisoka gave everyone a wide smile smile as he throw the cards up into the air, letting them free-fall. Everyone, except Chrollo were shocked and had this dumb founded look on their faces.
"....Like he said. It's a circus group. We need someone to go into the circus and be one with him. They will be here for approximately 4 to 6 days. The rest of us will ambush the circus on the third day so the people who are assigned to work in the circus must complete your task before then" Chrollo planned out everything.
"And when will they be here?" I asked.
"In about two days~" Hisoka replied.
"And people who I want to join the circuse are...." Chrollo close his eyes. "Hisoka, Shalnark and Yuki" He said as he opens his eyes.
"Hahaha. She does belong in the circus" Elaine laughed. I wasn't bothered by her.
"...Are you fine with that?" Chrollo wasked me.
"...Is me joining the circus an order...or a favor?" I laugh a bit. He was ordering be to join the circus a minute ago and now asking if I'm alright with it. I felt a strong tug on my scarf, almost chocking me.
"Why her?" the brat glare at Chrollo.
"You know why don't you, Yuki" Chrollo then throw the question to me. I stare at the brat a bit as he gave me his intense glare.
"...Nullify...I can nullify their power if they become a threat or is in the way." I spoke normally to the brat then look back at Chrollo. " I'm also guessing that you picked Shalnark because he's awfully cheerful with jokes....And him because he's already like a clown." I said pointing fingers to Shalnark and Hisoka. Chrollo let out a small chuckle and look at me.
"...You really are good" He said. I gave him a smile back.
"Tsk" The brat tsk behind me.
"Anyways you guys should get ready for the audition to join the circus" Chrollow ordered us.
~~~~~~~~~~~
I was walking to down the hall thinking of what to show off during the audition.
"Oi" I turn towards the voice and saw the brat. He was standing behind me with a really scary look on his face.
"....What?" I replied as he moves closer and closer. He yank my collar and pull be closer to him.
"You better know who you belong to" The brat growled into my ears. He then lower my turtle neck and sinks his teeth in deep.
"H-Hey!" I tried to push him off but I couldn't. He slowly lets go after a minute or so, leaving yet hickey like bruise mark on me.
"Don't forget" he growl at me once again before disappearing off.
