5:00pm
Hisoka had been driven to the hotel after the meeting, not bothering to look back, after exiting the vehicle that dropped him off.
Upon entering, he felt a slight, disturbance was the only way to describe it. It was faint, and probably only could be felt by someone who was an expert at nen.
He rode the elavator up to his room, the feeling getting stronger, the closer he got to his room, making him all the more excited.
He had already been using zetsu before arriving at the hotel, so snooping around unnoticed wouldn't be a problem.
The elevator doors opened, revealing nothing to be inside, to the cleaning lady standing in front of them.
Hisoka had already left the elavator skillfully, and was opening the room door with his key card.
He opened his door silently, hopefully not disrupting was going on inside.
Not realizing that there wasn't much going on in the first place.
He found Eclair sitting cross-legged in the middle of the living room floor meditating, only opening her eyes as soon as Hisoka called her name.
"Eclair? What are you doing~"
She sighed and ran a hand through her hair, "I was.. trying something..."
He stared down at her, and asked, "Why is it that, I can sense nen, but at the same time I cannot?"
She looked up at him, confusion laced in her grey eyes.
Then as if remembering something, she replies, "Oh. That's me.. Its just that.." She trails off, eyes wandering to the floor.
"Yes?~" he urged her to continue speaking, as he placed one hand on his hip.
"Well, a long time ago, someone had a nen barrier placed on me.." She paused and looked back up at Hisoka before continuing, "It won't come off until my twenty fifth birthday. So I've been trying to remove it sooner than that."
He stared down at her with an amused expression on his face.
"And, exactly how do you plan on removing a nen barrier, without a nen exorcist?~"
She stood up, putting her hair into a bun as she did.
"Tried that already. Twice."
"Ah, a pity~"
He stared at her for a while, eyes scanning her from top, to bottom.
It still creeped her out.
"Ok, so did you need anything else? Because I was gonna-"
"Why didn't you tell me, that the target is your mother?~" he interrupted.
She crossed her arms, and plopped down on the crimson sofa, whilst responding, "Some things aren't important, and therefore, weren't put in the file."
She looked towards him and added, "Also, how did the meeting go?"
"Well~" He began.
*flashback*
"Hisoka, I presume?" She asked the man, voice almost amused.
"That would be me~" the woman extended her hand, motioning for him to take a seat.
"I need you to kill someone for me." She looked into his eyes, studying his every movement.
"And to whom, do I have the pleasure of presenting this, fine death too?~"
The woman slid over a picture, and Hisoka saw who it was.
'Eclair?' He looked back up at the woman, asking, "And, why this particular person?"
The woman sneered evilly, while answering, "She's my daughter."
Hisoka sat unmoving in silence, as the woman continued explaining,
"She's a dangerous person to have running about in the streets, and she's smart too. Probably already tricked some oaf into helping her out."
'So I'm some oaf huh.' he thought, finding it funny that she hadn't a clue that he was the one that'd been tricked.
"Can you explain to me how she's dangerous?"
"You ask a lot of questions for a heartless killer," She deadpanned. "She's a walking time bomb, and a thieving, runaway little cunt."
'My, my~ such colorful language~' He thought to himself.
"She stole something extremely valuable to me, and I want it back." She ended the sentence in such a harsh manner, any normal person would've winced.
Normal, being the exact opposite of who Hisoka was.
"So, you want her dead?~" The whole situation was really, quite amusing to him. Who would've known his new toy, could be the cause of so much trouble.
The woman put a thoughtful hand on her chin and averted her eyes upwards.
"Actually, your right! Don't kill her just yet. I want you to bring her to me."
She clapped her hands twice, after coming to the conclusion.
"Now, if that is all, i'll have my men take you home."
After saying that, she began picking up a few idle papers that layed messily on top of the desk.
"Actually, I do have a minor concern~"
She stopped organizing and answered, "Yes?"
He looked into her eyes, noting that they weren't quite as lively as her daughter's were.
"What do I get in return, for this wonderful feat of mine?~"
She set the papers down, and spoke, "Well Hisoka, I know your kind. Not the type for money, Eh? So what is it that you desire?"
Her eyes watched him intently, only getting silence as a response from the man.
After she didn't get an answer, she began listing off things of value.
"Women?" No answer.
"Power, Land, Treasures?"
Still no answer, and it was beginning to irritate her.
"Well." She stood up, Hisoka not failing to dectect the sudden change in her voice. It was sexier?
She walked over to him, and stood behind him in his chair, her finger tracing over his jawline in a slow, seductive manner, and stopping under his chin.
"There are plenty of things that I can give to you, Hisoka."
She had leaned down and whispered the last part, her lips almost touching his ear.
He crooned his head slightly, and could see the woman a bit more, in his periffiral vision. She began leaning down, lips getting closer, and closer too his.
He turned his head away at the last second, the woman not failing to notice the smirk etched on his face. She stood up straight, slightly offended that he'd just refused her kiss.
"Now, now~ let's not get desperate~" he chuckled adding,
"I don't need money from you, nor sex for that matter~"
She glared at him, "What is it that you want then?" She crossed her arms, upon returning to her seat.
"You have valuable information, and that's what I want~"
He winked at her, earning an eye roll in response.
"Fine. Whatever. Begone from my presence.. I need to think."
He raised his arms up defensively, while standing to leave the room.
"Sure thing, Majesty~"
*end flashback*
Eclair didn't know weather to laugh, at the fact that her mother hated her guts, or to cry, at the thought of her mother, the one who gave birth to her.
Had tried to kiss Hisoka, the man standing in front of her.
She settled for a slight shudder, and nodded her head, letting him know that she had comprehended what he'd told her.
Hisoka spoke again, "What did you steal from her?~ She seemed oh so angry~"
Eclair looked away from him, and said nothing, and he took it as a hint not to ask.
"Well, I'm going to take another shower~" he hummed, as he walked off down the hall, leaving Eclair to dabble in her own thoughts.
