Yuuki wasn't happy. Killua was one of the people she did not want to draw. The tranquillisers that she had prepared probably wouldn't work on him due to his training and he was very alert. That would be annoying. Yuuki probably couldn't beat him in hand to hand combat so she would have to be sneaky.
Yuuki looked around, everyone had now removed their tags. Yuuki wondered if they still drew the same numbers as in the anime, the best way to check would to ask Gon and Killua who they drew but they would probably ask to look at her number.
How could she get around this? She walked up to Kurapika and Leorio who were having an argument and sat down next to them. Leorio scoffed at Kurapika and walked away.
"What was that about?" Yuuki asked.
"Who knows," Kurapika replied, "aren't you going to sit with Gon and Killua?"
"Nah," Yuuki said looking over at them chatting, "Wouldn't want to interrupt their bromance."
Yuuki and Kurapika chatted for a bit and Yuuki caught the occasional stare from Leorio moping on the other side of the boat. She wondered what they were arguing about.
"Hey... Kurapika?" Yuuki asked. "Do you mind doing me a favour?"
"Depends what it is." He replied
"Well I'd rather not ask but I can't see another way of getting the tag," Yuuki said, "Mind swapping tags with me?"
"Who do you have?" Kurapika asked.
"You have to show me yours too, okay?" Yuuki showed him the card. Kurapika A's eyes sharpened.
"Are you planning to trick him?" Kurapika asked.
"I don't really like putting it like that but sure." Yuuki said.
"I don't think I can help you then, but I won't tell him that you have him." Kurapika said, "But I'll show you my card."
Yuuki looked down at Kurapika's card. The number on it was 197, one of the Amori brothers not Tompa like he had drawn in the anime.
"I didn't expect you to just switch cards with me anyway," Yuuki said, "So how about a trade."
"A trade?" Kurapika questioned, "What do you mean?"
"I'll give you some information about your eight-legged friends and you switch cards with me, ok?" She said.
Kurapika's eyes started to turn red before he calmed down a little. He looked at the card in his hand the reluctantly said, "Very well."
Yuuki and Kurapika switched cards. "Ok then," Yuuki said, before whispering in Kurapika's ear, "Yorknew city, September first"
Yuuki walked over to Gon and Killua. She felt a bit bad about using the same trick as Tompa had but she couldn't fight head-on.
"Hey guys!" She said cheerfully, before sitting down next to them.
"Hey Yuuki!" Gon said. "What number did you pick?"
"Its a secret, " she said smiling and putting her finger on her lips.
"Okay then, " Gon said.
Yuuki turned to look at him. "Okay, I'll only tell you if you tell me yours though."
Gon laughed, "Sure!" He then turned his card over to reveal the number 44.
Yuuki started at the number, guess Gon was fated to get Hisoka then. "Wow, you have really bad luck." She said before turned over her card to reveal the number 197.
"Who's that?" Killua asked.
"One of those three brothers I think." She said before turning to Killua, "Hey! You're not supposed to look I only said I would show Gon!"
"Well you shouldn't have shown it so openly then!" Killua said, "Whatever though, I'll show you mine." He said, showing her a card with the number 362.
Yuuki had no idea who that was. "Who's that?"
"No clue," Killua said.
I hope he can find his target, Yuuki thought, if he does he can probably still pass even if I manage to take his tag.
They then reached the island and the woman began to call out their names one by one, timing two minutes between the names. Yuuki's name was soon called and she walked off.
Yuuki ran through the forest for a few seconds before climbing up a tree. She then removed the tag from her bag and stuck it in her shoe. She also took off her jacket and replaced it with a camouflage one she had in her bag.
She crouched down and moved along the branch as silently as she could, placing her toe down first. That seems ok, Yuuki thought. I'm glad I grew up near a forest. Yuuki didn't want to move on the ground because the guy who had followed Killua in the anime had been caught. She just hoped that moving through the trees would make her less noticeable.
Yuuki looked down to see Kurapika run below her. Yuuki sighed, not enough time to figure out. The guy who had stalked Gon through the trees was definitely a professional, Yuuki just hoped she could do it too.
Killua then walked casually past. Ok, Yuuki time to follow. Don't be an idiot and trip. She closed her eyes and regulated her breathing then began to follow.
