46 046 EnXYear

Driven by his desire to learn the cheat like En, his nen answered and his wings and acquired hairs receded, only retaining his elongated ears.

When he opened his eyes he is greeted by the darkness of the night. He is no longer able to see far through the dim light but his ears are still able to hear anything within 50 meter radius and could still 'see' obstructions within the sphere.

Feeling elated on his success so far, he used Gyo and everything changed. Everything within 100 meter radius again came into his senses like he could see and hear anything and created a mental image for him. He knows how thick a wall just based on the sonic vibration it reflects to his ears. He deduced that as long as the wall is less than a meter or two thick, his ears can still hear what is inside as it function as improvised En.

That put a smile on his face. Feeling the rush of success, he thought why stop there? He tried the same technique to transform his eyes only to gain night vision, but it ended up failing. He tried the same with the wings but again failed.

"Guess I do not have the desire to partially transform his eyes and gain wings like how I wanted to gain 'En'. But this is enough. I have gained plenty."

Then all of a sudden from his active 'En' he saw someone familiar jumped from 1 building to another until he landed on his roof behind him.

"Yamcha?" Called the man.

Silver don't know how to respond, he left earlier on a bad mood and haven't really recollected himself yet. 'Good thing I have receded the wings or I don't know how to face him right now. Shit my wound, my back and chest is covered but my left arm.'

Silver turned towards Peter in a guarded manner and placed his left arm behind him. "Who-who are you and what are you doing here on our roof?"

Peter was taken a back when he realized it was not 'Yamcha'. "I'm sorry, I am Peter a crime hunter. I'm looking for my partner Yamcha, were you by chance saw a large 'bat' fly over?"

"A large bat? I'm not sure if it was a bat, but I saw something large flew to that direction." Silver pointed to the Heavens Arena.

"The Heavens Arena? Since he knows how to use Nen, he really might be a combatant. Thanks Kid and sorry for trespassing." Peter jumped from roof to roof again to the direction of the arena. 'That kid, feels like I've seen him before. And his back quite resemble Yamcha. The wounds! Does he have it?'

Peter immediately look back only to find Silver closing the door on the roof with his woundless right arm.

'Sorry Peter, don't know how to face you for now.' Tired with the confrontation he retired for the night.

'The next day'

He heard from the news that another batch of Gang members was caught last night with one reported to have died during the fight. It was reported that it was a crime hunter who successfully caught them and also managed to get some footage evidence of the Rottfelis involvement to drugs and several officer deaths. The head of the Rottfelis is currently in prison and is waiting for trial.

"I guess he hid my involvement. Now i should train how to use this new ears of mine." Last night he was ecstatic of gaining a cheat like ability that he had taken it for granted and went to sleep. He was then rudely woken up by the busy street and noisy neighbors going along their day the next morninh. "I guess now we know why bats sleep on a cave."

That week he stayed at his house. He trained himself to ignore unnecessary noise and only focus on his immediate vicinity. He could still hear everything fine without issues but he is now not bothered by the unnecessary inputs coming from other places. He also continued his heroic acts at night to fulfill the 2000 bout needed to master the upgraded Spider bite.

He learned in dismay that there is no way to know how many times he still need to fight since there is no counter to tell him. So he did what he thought is best. He will find a way to fight daily until he completes it.

<A year has passed - August 18, 1996 17:25:34.678>

Silver still has yet to complete the 2000 fights required and he does not know how long it would take him to master it. He has fought a lot and trained in the past year. He would visit a different gym to fight each day and would go his heroic round at night. A rumor about Batman circulated the street of Heavens City, a vigilante who bruise a lot but never kills spread along with Spiderman who would be often seen swinging from one building to another.

The two never met, since Silver would always hear Peter coming a mile away and would fly away before Peter could arrive. Silver could still hear clearly around 50 meter radius without Gyo, but with Gyo his En like ability can expand up to 150 meters.

Knowing that 'Yamcha' is clearly avoiding him he stopped chasing after him. However one night he managed to see a figure flying to his general direction knowing who it is, he threw a box to the direction of guy he correctly assumed to be 'Yamcha' before he could see him. 'Yamcha' caught the box and saw him, then flew to another direction.

Inside the box was a card with the word sorry on it and two wrist devices that when used spit outs white sticky substance that remarkably resembles a spider web.

Peter don't know what 'Yamcha' would use it for but if it would convey his sincerity then it would serve his purpose. And it did, some nights after, he would somehow caught up with 'Yamcha' in action and would receive an acknowledment nod from him.

They still haven't talked yet but that is enough for now. He thought 'Yamcha' is still just a kid afterall and can harbor a grudge for a long time.

Silver on the other hand don't know how to face the situation. He doesn't hate Peter or anything but his sudden outburst that night really put him in a difficult spot. Being a child as he is, he doesn't want to admit he was wrong.

So until then, they are in no talking terms.
