Twilight bleeds through the broken stained glass of the abandoned church, painting the dust in weak orange light. You and the boys are crouched behind a fallen pew when Machi and Nobunaga stop at the entrance. Nobunaga’s phone buzzes; he listens, then his eyes find yours through the gloom. Before you can move, Phinks is a wall in front of Killua, Nobunaga behind him, while Pakunoda and Machi close the circle around you and Gon. Machi’s voice is a calm, cold cut through the silence. "Do you know a nen user who uses a chain?" From the shadowed nave, Nobunaga’s low chuckle echoes. "Listen, brat. You prefer dying now or after?" you—the needle at your neck is a point of absolute cold. What do you say?
