Flashback - Unknown year
At some point in her life, Kira was assigned a mission to protect Silva Zoldyck during his mission.
She can't recall how long ago it was. She can't even remember her exact age when the event happened.
But she did remember the attire she wore on that day; a white kimono, accompanied with a red obi tied around her waist, and how malicious Chrollo Lucilfer's bloodlust was.
Troupe member #8 was long separated from the rest of the group. That was the plan all along and Silva has succeeded it in order to carry out the assassination mission. Kira was left on the lookout while he fights #8.
Kira's mission required her to conceal herself from being seen. Only to reveal herself to kill those who would interfere with any of the Zoldyck's mission. And ONLY to reveal her face and voice when she's completely sure that she can kill the opponent.
The motive is to keep Kira's existence a secret. It's very beneficial for the Zoldyck Family to have a secret assassin that no one knows about to protect them when they carry out their mission.
She would eventually block the path to the fighting spot between Silva and #8 from Chrollo Lucilfer.
He only needs to mutter one word and unleash his bloodlust to send chills down her spine.
"Move."
Kira knew instantly that she won't be able to defeat the Spider's Head. But she can't abandon her mission either. So, she chooses to stand her guard and refuse to obey his command.
The man only got angrier and in a split second, his scowl was merely inches away from Kira's face.
Kira's breath hitched, sweat rolls down from the side of her face as she saw a crater form on the ground where she used to stand a few seconds ago. She managed to jump away before Chrollo's punch collides her face.
Something shiny caught her eyes. The Spider's head was holding a weapon.
Ben's Knives? What is he doing with that? Did he has no intention to fight with nen?
Whatever he's planning, Kira can't let her guard down. She extended her right arm and straighten the palm of her hand in the direction of her opponent.
Chrollo couldn't be bothered by whatever attack the girl is attempting to perform, all he needs right now is to at least graze her skin with Ben's Knives. He made the first move running towards Kira.
He acknowledged that his opponent has quick reflexes when she was able to dodge his punch earlier. But is she quick on her feet too? He's about to find out.
Chrollo's thoughts were cut out when he felt slight changes in the air pressure around them. Suddenly, he was hit with a circular wave of wind that was shot from the palm of his opponent.
If Chrollo hasn't activated his Ryu at his arms on time, his whole body would be cut into pieces.
'She's really trying to kill me.' Chrollo thought as he looks at his badly slashed arms.
The pressure air around him shifts again. He immediately looks over to where Kira was standing, only to see a gust of wind.
The Spider's Head manage to dodge her second attack, an air blast from behind. He took advantage of the moment where Kira is near to stab her with Ben's Knives.
Kira dodged in time too, only for the weapon to get hooked on her eye bandages.
Chrollo immediately yanks his knife away and this action causes the bandages to be ripped off.
The girl backflipped at least 10 meters away, landing perfectly on her legs and with her back facing Chrollo.
Shit. She can't show her face to him. Not when he's too difficult to be defeated! Kira is sweating profusely now at the thought of that.
"Turn around. Let me see your face."
Kira found herself shivers at Chrollo's cold demand.
"You've got the nerve to fight me but not showing yourself. Are you looking down on me?"
Silva hasn't returned from where he has left for quite a while now. He's taking quite some time to finish off this mission. But then again, his target is a troupe member. Kira now acknowledged that The Phantom Troupe is a whole new level of a gang. And with pure unfortunate luck, she's fighting the leader of the gang now.
She got no choice now. She needs to use the technique.
Kira slowly turns around and faces Chrollo Lucilfer. Without the bandages, she sees him much clearer now. All black attire, the sleeves were shredded and his arms are bloodied. He looked young, maybe early twenty. And what's with the cross tattoo on the forehead?
Chrollo Lucilfer sees Kira much clearer now too. She's not blind as he thought she was. But what's with the bandages?
