"I found these." Leorio came back with a cardboard box in his hands filled with compasses.

"Strangely enough, there is an exact amount for each of us to take one." He continued as I nodded at his words.

"So what did you find Naruk- IS THAT A FERAL ANIMAL!" He asked before he exclaimed, pointing at Kurama at my shoulder.

Kurama only bared his fangs at Leorio for pointing at him and calling him feral as Leorio slowly went closer to inspect him.

Kurama however made sure he didn't get to close as he would swing his claws out threateningly.

"Uh... Nevermind... What else did you find?" Leorio asked, not taking his eyes off of Kurama.

"I found these measuring tools." Baldie said showing it to us.

"And I searched the managers room and found this map." Kurapika said, taking it out from his pocket.

We all went closer as Kurapika told us his thoughts about the map, "So... We need to go to this... Zevil island?" I asked.

"It would seem so." Kurapika nodded at my words, "Might as well call it devils island than." I heard Kurama murmur under his breath as I snickered.

"Copy right purposes." I whispered into his ears.

"W-wait where are ya'll going?" I asked seeing everyone suddenly disperse, following after Gon and Killua who patiently explained the situation to me.

Well Gon mostly since Killua was giving me a deadpanned look.

[Le Timeskip~]

Everyone one the boat began searching for appliances and useful things.

Working together ever since that typhoon happened, if they had heed our advice they wouldn't have gotten in danger though.

Now it states in this diary that by tomorrow, everything will be going under water which is a big no no since we need the air.

With Kurapika being our strategist as usual, he thought up of a plan.

I also found out that Baldie was a ninja!

A ninja from this world though.

Anyways, since the ship was jammed in between those boulders, it'll be hard to use this boat.

'I can walk on water after all~'

"-It would take a lot of ammo to blow it out of there." I managed to hear the second part of what Leorio said.

"Yeah... We'd probably have to use the ship's gun turrets for that." Kurapika continued, "The heck is a turret?" I asked.

"This right over here." He explained pointing to some machinery on the blueprints.

[A/N: Basically like a gun]

" 'Aight cool, if you want me to blow the boulders up I can do it." I shrugged nonchalantly and said.

"You destroy the boulders? That's very funny little girl, don't over exert yourself." A guy cockily mocked me, "Looking down on girls?" I asked back with a grin.

-You actually didn't reply back rashly...-

'Of course, I was planning on stretching his limbs out so his bones will pop out of hid sockets before killing him slowly. Making him think that there's hope before I crush it in his face.' I replied Kurama darkly with a tiny smirk on my face.

-You malicious little creature... I guess you learnt it from the best huh?-

'Why do you sound so proud?'

-Nothing you need to know of...-

The others practically thought I was joking as they continued on talking about the boulders situation, "Ya'll..." I said but everyone was too deep in their conversation to hear me.

"YA'LL!" I exclaimed loudly as everyone quietened down to look at me, "I.Said.I.Can.Destroy.It. Is it so hard to understand?" I gritted out.

"Uh it's okay, you need to save your strength right?" Gon asked out nervously as I narrowed my eyes slightly.

"Fine. But come to me if you need help with it." I hmphed out, "Of course." Gon replied as he grinned back widely at me.

-He's probably worried that you'll go overboard since that guy provoked you.-

'How kind...'

"Killua you'll help out with the propellers right?" Gon asked Killua before turning to face me, "You too right Naruko?" He asked enthusiastically.

'Reminds me of Naru... And he's all alone in that world without me...'

"Ehh? But it sounds so annoying frankly." Killua tried opposing his idea showing off and irritated look.

"Come on! Let's do it! Teamwork makes the dream work." Gon cheered on enthusiastically.

"Let's do it Nee chan! Teamwork makes the dream work!" A kid Naruto exclaim cheekily.

"But-" Killua trailed off, "E-eh? Why are you crying." He froze as he pointed at me.

"C-crying?" I asked shakily as I saw tears rolling down my face, Kurama was licking my tears off my face.

"Wow Killua you made Naruko cry. Good job kiddo, just help them with the propellers." Leorio said.

Kurapika looking confused on what he should do as he panicked slightly. The rest just froze in spot, not knowing what to do with me.

"Killua! You made Naruko cry!" Gon exclaimed before he turned to me and asked for my well-being.

I quickly used my sleeve to wipe of the tears rolling down my face and tried forcing myself to stop, "Are you okay? Was Killua being insensitive or rude?" Gon asked softly.

"N-no... It's just you remind me of someone very dear to me." I replied with a bright grin.

"Really? Who?" Gon asked, "My... Brother. He's... -I haven't seen him a long while and I bet he's feeling really lonely right now without me keeping him company..." I trailed off.

"Ehh? But he wouldn't want you to blame yourself for making him feel that way Naruko! I bet something came up so you had to separate." Gon replied cheerfully trying to cheer me up.

Upon hearing those words, the invisible chain of guilt restricting my heart dissipated as all I felt was relief.

"Thank you for those words." I replied as I gave him a hug, Kurama jumping off of my shoulder as I did that.

"N-now, let's go deal with the issue!" I exclaimed with a bright grin, "N-naruko? Are you sure it's not because of me?" Killua asked nervously.

"Nope~" I replied back with a grin before holding both of them by their arms and dragged them off.

Kurama following behind of course.

We ended up swimming to the bottom with some spears as we had to chop it all off.

Both Killua and Gon are holding their breaths and me? I'm making a chakra bubble around my head so I can breathe.

-You're hacking the system.-

'Of course, wouldn't want your dear sister to drown right?'

-Of course.-
