break

I don't know how long I slept. A little bit disoriented I looked around. My head felt like someone was playing a heavy metal concert inside. This was the worst headache I ever had. I patted my head. My hood was still on it's place. Good. The sun was blinding me so I closed my eyes a little. What was the time? I couldn't tell. Here was no clock around. Oh wait. It was. I grabbed into the drawer and took out my smartphone. By turning it on the first thing I did was turning town the light of the display. Then I saw the numbers showing the time. It was exactly 5:43 PM. When I looked at the date I breathed in hardly. I slept at least one and a half day. I stood up. Everything was turning around. I felt horrible. But that was no reason to do nothing but hanging around.

I walked into the bathroom slowly and tried not to tip over. The first thing I did was drinking a bit of the cold water. Then I washed my face. After that I decided to brush my teeth and in general ignoring my conditions. I was still wearing my cloak. I guess I should wash it. It was quite dirty from all the adventures it had to do with me. I giggled quietly. Then I took off my cloak and also the clothing I wore under it. I considered this as a great moment to take a shower as well. I locked the door of the bathroom and removed a little mirror from the shower. Then I turned on the warm water. Despite being a cat I loved taking showers.

Whem I got out and dryed myself I searched for a good clothing. I decided to wear a blue armless Kimono with  long black trousers. To cover my ears it had also a hood. I looked quite good. Why didn't I wear things like that always?, I asked myself. As the last step to get myself ready I took a medicine for my headache. After quarter an hour it started working.

Then I left my room. I wanted to look after Hisoka. He was in a worse physical state after our fight. I asked the woman at the reception where to find his room. When I arrived I knocked at the door. "Come in, darling!", he shouted from the inside. Of course he recognised my aura from afar. I opened the door and entered the room. Hisoka was laying on his bed. His legs were there too. This look was quite bizarre. I made one step backwards. "Oh dear. Don't be shy. Later there will arrive someone to take them on again.~", he said in his tipical tone of voice. I breathed easy. "I'm glad to see you are still yourself.", I stated and sat down next to him. "I'm surprised you came here.~", he said. I shaked my shoulders. "I felt a little guilty for treating you like that.", I explained, "And of course we are friends."

Hisoka raised an eyebrow. "Are we?", he asked quite surprised. "I think so. For me you are a friend. That's by the way why I hadn't an intend to kill you.", I answered. He smiled. "I guess we can call it friendship. In a weird way. But you should know that I'm only interested in strong opponents. If you start disappointing me I will finish you off.", he warned me. I smirked. "As long as you fell in a bloodlust during a fight you won't be able to overthrow a person counting on strategy. I guess you would have won, if you didn't go insane.", I stated. He smirked as well. "I couldn't hold back seeing your enormous potential. But I guess I also underestimated you a little.~" It passed some time in which we analysed the fight in all details. It was great fun.

Then we heared a knocking on the door. "Come in, Machi.~", Hisoka said. A woman with pink hair and kimono, in its pattern quite similar to mine, entered the room. "What have you done this time?", she asked while taking a sack, I guess filled with money, from the clown. "I had a fight with her.", he pointed at me. A spiteful smirk appeared on her face. "Good job, girl.", she said towards me. She seemingly didn't like Hisoka at all. But them she started to heal his legs. The girl was using strings of nen to connect the sliced off flesh with the rest. A very useful ability.

After she finished the job, during which Hisoka nearly permanent started a flirt with her, she took another sack of money and was about to leave. "By the way, Hisoka,...", she said. He looked up and I could see a little spark of hope in his eyes. "...next time I have to come over for you the price will double." That was harsh. Then Machi left the room. I felt a great sympathy for my crazy friend. This girl gave him the hardest rebuff I've ever seen.

After a while just silently hanging around also I left the room. I went to the reception and registered myself for the next fight incoming. No matter against who. And no matter when. My aura reserves were refilled and I didn't got physical damage. I should be able to fight as soon as possible.

And while Hisoka was curing his injuries. I collected the last few victorys I needed to get the permission to oppose a floor master. I was so excited. The one I chose wasn't that famous but had an interesting ability. I already made an appointment with him. He seemed friendly but very certain about his victory. It was again a week I had to train and prepare myself. But the first day I decided to relax a bit. I called Yuki in the morning.

"Hello?"

"It's me."

"I'm proud. It seems you learned how to use your phone regularly." I heard a giggle. "Are you okay again? You didn't look good after the fight."

"You've seen it?"

"Not seen, but Tiger has made a good commentating. And of course I sensed your nen. You almost used up your whole aura!"

"Yes. But the thing that really matters is that I won."

"I'm proud of you. What about the other guy? Tiger said he was very destroyed."

"Hisoka is still alive. I visited him yesterday in the evening."

"And what about his legs?"

"He had a method to fix them. Believe me, this guy is unbreakable."

"You seem to get along well."

"Yeah. We are friends. In a weird way. We are both interested in fighting strong opponents."

"Seems quite interesting. But, I'm so sorry dear, I have to leave now. I have a job for a few days and my airship departs every minute. But don't worry. Tiger and I will watch you finishing off the floor master guy."

"I don't mind. Then see you."

"See you."

Then she ended the call. I fell on my bed. It's always time for a power nap, I guess.

I awoke and looked at my phone. It was already dark outside. I sigh. I should buy an alarm clock. My sleeping schedule was so destroyed that I couldn't sleep just a little bit. It was always for hours. How annoying. But for now I could just sleep on. It was night after all. I changed quickly into my sleeping suit. It was a large hoodie and a pair of warm trousers. Then I went to sleep again. Sleeping was really fun.
