heavens arena

Early in the morning I left the house again for a longer period. I promised myself not to take that much time. That meaned I had to work as efficient as possible. I was sitting on the backseat of a taxi and staring outside to the rushing landscape. I was so excited to fight in this famous area.

I arrived at around 6 PM. It has been a long term of driving. I left the car and went to the big building. Because I didn't wanted to waist any time, I registered myself on the reception immediately. Then I waited for my first fight. To be honest, I wasn't in my best condition, because of the long trip and because I was quite tired. But it's only the first floor, right? I smirked aslnt.

My number was announced and I stood up and entered the ring. The next number, my opponent, was a middle aged man with huge muscles on his arms. But only on his arms. I guess he trained a bit wrong. The referee opened the fight. I was the first one attacking. At first I aimed at his face with my right hand, so he protected it with crossing his arms. But my right hand wasn't the real attack. I formed my left hand to a fist and punched his stomach. He spitted blood. But I had no business with him anymore, because he was pushed out of the ring. Then I got the permission to fight in the next floor.

While fighting in the different floors the time passed and not even some adrenaline could let me stay awake. I allowed myself to make a break after I reached the 50th floor at 11 PM. Like a zombie I staggered out of the arena. I needed to find a place to sleep. I took out my smartphone and started a search for nearby hotels. I found one with a free room only two streets away. After I arrived I booked a room for one night. More wouldn't be necessary. Tommorrow I will reach at least the 100th floor so I could sleep in the arena itself. This night I slept like a stone. I don't even know why I was exhausted like that. I haven't done anything demanding. Maybe that was the problem. I hated doing nothing or boring stuff. The trip was very boring. And the fights were either. There was not even one opponent with any noticeable talent.

The next morning I woke up by sun. It was about 9 AM. A good time to stand up. I went to the bathroom and changed my clothes quickly. After that I brushed my hair. Then I took on my hood. I needed it so badly. I felt quite uncomfortable when my ears or the tail got visible. There was no good explanation for that, but I still covered my neko features all the time. I left the hotel and went to the arena once more.

I didn't have to wait long, then my fight started. This one also wasn't a competition. After a while I reached the 100th floor and got my own room. I haven't had any problems until now. I was pretty annoyed, because no fight was not even a little interesting. But I had not given up the hope. At the very latest in the 200th floor the fights will get more rough. In that storey it was the first time where the use of nen was allowed. I hope it wouldn't last that long to reach the floor.

After unpacking my belongings I continued fighting. I won one mach after the other without even using something else than my pure hands. Just like I said: boring. After a while I arrived in the 120th floor. Here happened the first interesting thing since I was here. I was just exiting the elevator while sensing a familiar presence. I looked around and then I saw the red haired clown. Hisoka was sitting on a couch and hanging out. I literally ran over and jumped next to him. He seemed not even a little surprised. "You're the first not boring person I met here.", I stated and he smiled a little. "Yes I also thought to see more worthy opponents.", he replied. "I guess you want to fight?", he asked with a little bit excitement in his voice. "Of course. But not now. I guess you also try to reach the 200th floor?", I asked conspiratorial. "What a question!~", he said. I smirked. "Then let's fight there.", I said and stood up. Now I got something to be excited for. "Okay~", he shouted after me.

I continued fighting until it was 8 PM. I reached the 150th floor and was in need of a little break. When I arrived I sat down on my bed and took out my smartphone. It has been a while since I checked my mails. If I remember correctly it was even before the hunter exam started. I wasn't that familiar with this device so I used it only rarly.

By looking at the display I noticed 27 missed calls. All from the same person. Oh shit. Immediatly I called her back. "Finally you call back!", Yuki shouted facilitated. "What's up? You called quite often.", I asked. "Yes, I did. But you didn't considered it as necessary to answer the calls!", she said a little bit angry. "I know...I'm sorry.", I said honestly. "It's alright. I just saw you at heavens arena. Tiger and I are just near. I wanted to ask if you want to join us for a cup of coffee.", she explained her matters. "Of course. Let's meet tomorrow. 6 PM?", I propose. "Alright. A good time for some coffee." I could already hear the smirk in her voice. I ended the call and went to sleep happily. Tomorrow will be a great day despite the fights. I was looking forward to this appointment. I haven't seen Yuki and her boyfriend Tiger for a while.
