26 Where to go

Leorio, Kurapika and Yuuki entered a large lecture room. All of the other candidates who had passed were all sitting in various seats across the room.

Yuuki sat at the back, as far away from Illumi as possible. When she walked in, he simply looked at her then back at the front of the room.

Netero stood at the front with Beans and they began to explain about the licences and their benefits.

After he had been talking for a while, Gon came storming in and grabbed Illumi's arm.

"Apologise!" Gon said.

Illumi simply stared at him and replied, "I see no reason to."

Gon started to look even angrier when he said this. He grabbed Illumi's wrist and pulled him up off his seat.

"You don't deserve to be an older brother!" He yelled, squeezing Illumi's wrist.

"You don't need to do anything to become one," Illumi said.

Yuuki walked up to Gon and put her hand on his shoulder. "Calm down Gon, even though he's still a horrible person, he didn't end up doing anything."

Gon turned to look at Yuuki before staring frustrated at Illumi once more.

"Fine! Keep this in mind though, I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure he never sees you again!" Gon yelled, his hand still firmly gripping Illumi's arm.

Gon then let go of Illumi's arm and followed Yuuki, sitting down next to her. She looked at Gon's angry face. He's this mad even though Killua didn't end up leaving, she thought, I guess he really cares about him.

When they left the room, they met up with Killua who was waiting for them outside. Illumi looked at him before turning away and leaving. Yuuki thought something was wrong. With Illumi's personality, he should want to get Killua back at all costs.

As they began to walk away, Kurapika and Leorio caught up with them.

"So where are you guys headed next?" Kurapika asked.

"I'm going to go find Hisoka, punch him and give his tag back!" Gon said, holding the number 44 tag in his hand.

"He's probably back there you can try if you want," Yuuki said pointing in the direction of the room.

"Ah!" Gon said, "Yeah that's true, I probably can't beat him now though."

"Will you even be able to find him later though?" Killua asked.

"Oh, I don't." Gon said, "Dp you think I should go ask him?"

"You definitely shouldn't!" Yuuki said.

"About that," Kurapika said, "I know."

"Did he tell you earlier during the fight?" Leorio asked.

"No." Kurapika said, "He told me afterwards. In fact, he told me the same thing that Yuuki did."

"Huh?" Killua asked.

"Oh, about the spiders?" Yuuki said, "So Yorknew City?"

"Yes," Kurapika said, "September 1st."

"So that's that!" Gon said, "I'm going to go train and then punch Hisoka. I've got six months to do it!"

"If I find him then, I'll call you, he should be there?" Kurapika said.

"What you're not staying with us?" Gon asked.

"No. I'm going to go find some work as a hunter!" Kurapika said.

"I'm leaving too!" Leorio said, "With this card, I can pay for the expenses and finally begin my studying."

Gon turned to Yuuki, "What about you Yuuki? Are you going to come with me and Killua?" He said.

"Umm, no." Yuuki said, "There are loads of places I want to see so I think I'm going to head somewhere with my licence then go home to Whale Island for a bit."

"What you too?" Gon asked.

"I would ask if you wanted to come too but you have put a silly restriction on yourself so you can't use your licence." Yuuki said, "Killua doesn't have one either."

"Oh." Gon said, "Okay."

"It doesn't really matter though because we're all going to meet up again, right?" Yuuki asked.

"That's true!" Gon said cheerfully, "See you guys later then, at Yorknew City!"

After leaving the group, Yuuki stopped to talk to several of the other new hunters and exchanged contact information with them.

Yuuki placed a map of the world on top of a bench. There are so many things I want to see that I can't really decide where to go, so let's just hope my luck is good. She spun a spinning top on the map and watched as it turned and turned before stopping and falling over.

The top had landed on the large continent to the right of the map, just outside of the Kakin empire. Yuuki was almost happy that it didn't land there, the royal family was kind of scary.

Ok, Yuuki thought, to the Azian continent we go. Let's hope that the hunter assigned to me is willing to follow.
