When i close me eyes, i see you. When i open them i miss you...

Zeno stood on the Nen dragon, flying high above the clouds with Netero balancing on the creature's long tail. The palace below was barely visible from their position above the clouds. the pair silently counted down the seconds before the beast began dropping a like a bullet to the ground.

Zeno watched emotionlessly as one of the ants Nen came into with the dragon only to completely vanish as it released the EN. It was that moment when the ant when into attack mode that their ride, the Nen dragon split. Thousands if not millions of small shinning dragons rained down onto the palace – the bigger dragon splitting into a myriad as the clock tick away and the raid itself began.

Those in still safe in the nearby city or villages – would have described the sight falling stars lighting the night sky – even that it wouldn't have done the sight of Zeno dragon drive justice.

He watched coldly as the ant that had sense them in the first place jumped towards them- to attack or defence he didn't know, only that it was futile. Netero wasted no time, placing his hands in pray and released his Nen attack.

One moment the ant was there. The next it had been flung out of the way - off into the wilderness miles away from the palace. Making sure that the ant would be out of most of the battle. Leaving the pair to continue their descend, his dragons beginning to pierced the palace.

The raid had begun.

It was surprising the sight Zeno and netero came upon was they had landed. The ant that had been flung away appearing like nothing had happened. The would-be ant king cradling the bloody body of a female women.

It wasn't a sight the pair had expected to see.

The assassin and hunter hold their breath ceasing their approach at the sight, the ant king with a tenderness they hadn't expected - even ordering one of his guards to heal the dying women. The king turned towards them, "shall we change location?"

Zeno didn't brother glancing at his partner – their plan had been about separating the king and the royal guards so changing location would suit them just fine. It wasn't until the king stepped past the past did the pieces fall into place.

The pair followed the king outside, glancing towards the young boy – Killua friend if Zeno was correct looking at them from the other side seething in anger as netero gestured towards the building they had exited from.

It took only a moment for Zeno to create the dragon head – noticing the kings lack of response, the lack of malice or guard as the ability was drawn out – the ant king was a frightening being. soon the king and netero stood on the dragon – vanishing into the distance for their epic battle.

Zeno glanced towards his grandson a thought entering his mind – he might know. Appearing towards them, "My job is finished here." he stated in a form of greeting. "what happens afterwards is of no concern to me. have you heard from your artist friend?"

"No" the pair exchanged glances.

"I see... Wanted to know if she do a family painting. One more thing judge what's happening inside for yourselves" he stated before slipping into the darkness.

Moving slowly through the wreckage of the palace he glanced about, something had caught his interest. It appeared to be in his mind's eye a wall of Nen – and it was making him quite curious, as the strange Nen wall had survived his dragon drive rainfall.

His eyes widen in surprised though a normal human wouldn't have noticed the different on his usually blanked face. The Nen wall was actually a giant mural. He studied it, he could see each and every paint stoke that created the breath-taking piece. He recognises two of the ants walking though the painting the king – the most oppressing being, he could feel the pressure of the king even though the painting. as well as the Cat like ant. The other two, a maroon skinned male and butterfly male he hadn't see nor met on his travels to the painting.

"Zeno?" a quiet voice asked, breaking his trance the painting had put him in.

Grey eyes locked onto the heterochromia ones of the artist he had been asking his grandson about. How did they do know she was here.

"Sinea, I was not expecting you here" he stated staring down at the sitting from of the artist.

She nodded, turning back towards the painting a sleepy expression on her face. "I was here on commission, that one thing leads to another... but I was able to make a masterpiece"

Zeno glanced from the worn female to the giant mural before them, connecting the dots from the facts laid out before him. "I see, would you be able to do a family painting? Been meaning to ask for a while"

She nodded, slowly getting to her feet. Legs swaying under the weight. "Hopefully I be able to make another masterpiece such as this"

Zeno gave her a rare smile, "I'm sure you will. I'm surprised it lasted though my dragon drive without harm"

Sinea nodded, "I may have place more Nen than normal into the piece thought-out the creation. It will not fall for many years to come... Then more so as your dragons rained down. I must say that they were spectacular."

He chuckled lightly turning on his heel. "shall we go?"

"you go ahead, I think I pushed myself to much over these pass weeks..."

"no matter, my dear, I shall carry you" Zeno stated picking the women up in a piggyback, "sleep" he commanded as he began to walk away. No sooner as those words left his mouth did, he felt the tension drift from the artist.

Taking one last look at the masterpiece the pair vanished into darkness of the wilderness.

(^.^)

Zeno was still within walking distance of the palace, ever slowing his pace with the unconscious female on his back. Even as the cheater like ant pestered him. "I think I'll respectfully decline. I'm really not in the mood" he spoke not even glancing at the ant.

"come now! Don't say that! What you should be doing is regretting you ever ran into me!" the ant exclaimed grinning at him. "you can be my first test subject for my new technique" he grinned smugly to himself, seeming proud of this 'technique'.

Zeno frowned sighing at the ant attempts to bait him.

"Oh, c'mon you don't have to give me that look. To tell the true you're not the guy I really want to be fighting either. That guy with the big pipe and sunglasses... he's your nakama right?"

"if you want him why don't you look for him?" Zeno asked, not answering the ant's question.

"I found him already no it was no good" the ant whined, continuing to explain his choices...

Zeno suppressed a sigh "you're saying you want to fight me as a warm-up to the main event?"

"ding ding!" the ant cheered, not even noticing the different in power between the two.

"what a tiring day..." Zeno murmured glancing upwards.

"would you listen to me for a bit?" Zeno stated, and began to speak only for his voice to be drowned out by the hyper cheater ant. He had enough with the ants, luckily, the ants time was slowly running out. "I think you might want to look out behind you"

The ant only laughing at his so called tempted to 'pull the oldest trick in the book' his laughing was cut short as a pressure stuck him to the ground the attacking blast creating a creator where the ant had stood.

"well, I supposed it made little difference whether you looked or not." Zeno stated waiting for the dust clouds to disappear. Silva crouched on the bloodied and crushed form of the dead ant. the dragon beast flying in the skies above them.

"would you have preferred I leave him alive?"

"I don't mind"

Soon enough the group sat on the flying beast, discussing the day's events. Occasionally glancing at the sleeping female. "we should let Illumi know," Silva stated nodding toward the artist, "he's been asking about her"

"He has? I'm surprised he's interested"

"I don't think he is particular interested to this extent, it's that Hisoka fellow that been bugging him -I believe"

"I see, shame she an interestingcharacterwith dangerous friends and family"
