"Okay, so... are you going to tell me about Nen?" Crazy asked after they had walked silently for two minutes. Jeez, I asked him two minutes ago, why is he not responding. Killua responded.

"Yeah, sorry. Spaced out for a moment there. The first category of Nen is ten, to shroud your body in aura, and not have it flow away from you but around you. It's control can be increased by meditation and practice." Killua told Crazy. To shroud the body with your aura, I think I did that in my fight... Crazy had learned to do this during the fight, ten upon being learned can not be forgotten. Crazy had no knowledge of this and was curious as to what the next category was.

"The next category is zetsu, it is the technique that I am using right now. It is containing the aura within the body and not letting any of it loose. It's only reliable usage is in stealth due to it getting rid of the small amount of aura protecting your body. Even weak attacks fused with Nen will have major damage. So if you fight another Nen user, try to avoid using zetsu in that fight." Crazy nodded his head repeatedly intent on hearing more.

"Have you ever tried ten yet?" Killua asked Crazy looking into his eyes intimidating him slightly. Crazy gulped, he did not want too see where lying would get him in this situation.

"I have..." Crazy was cut off by Killua.

"Show me it, I need to see the roughness of the aura so judge how long it will take for you to be ready to learn the next technique, Ren." Well, I guess it cant hurt to show him. It really is not much though... Crazy showed him his Ten, it was a white mist like aura that came about 3 inches off his body. Outlining the shape of it.

"I see, so its not your second time using it, I would guess its your third time using Ten." Killua was right, Crazy had only used Ten 3 times in total. "Well, show me it in a week after you have trained by meditating for an hour every day or, you can punch things with Ten active for an hour every day."

"OH NO! I need to work to get more powerful! I hate working though!" Crazy whined at Killua. He grinned for a second as he thought of something that made him strangely happy. Oh no... that's a sadistic grin if I've ever seen one! Don't tell me... Crazy was going to reveal his thought

"On second thought, make that two hours. Oh yeah also I need the weighted clothes and the vests! How did I forget! Don't worry, I always bring spares!" He got out of his backpack a vest, it didn't look too heavy. "Well, wear it already! We need to escape this maze remember." Crazy was going to grab the vest and put it on when Killua threw it onto him. When it landed on him, he immediately fell down. Holy crap! This things heavy! How does he even carry it in his bag?

"How much does this thing weigh?" He said while getting up even while restrained by the weights on his shoulders.

"100 kilograms, also you will wear this all week except when you are sleeping." Killua said this casually as if that was light.

"That's literally my body weight and a half! All week! Well, it's gonna be a long week for me." Crazy muttered the last part as he staggered to continue. Killua was walking relatively the same speed as before except slightly faster. "Get a move on it!" Killua said mockingly.

Well crap. That's kind of my fault now that I look at it that way. But I am guessing it will be worth it in the end though. Crazy nodded and then sighed shortly afterwards. This week was going to be a long one...

Crazy and Killua were staying silent and hidden for the last five minutes. Until the attack, they were quietly walking down, well more like Killua was walking fast. Crazy was still struggling, trying to keep the pace. He had the endurance to carry the weighted clothing all week but it would really be an exhausting task. But what really ticked him off was that he had to complete the test with not only his hurt arm, but also 100 kilos of additional weight.

Crazy saw some sort of object fly by his face when he rounded the corner, the playing card was a joker. Crazy maintained zetsu and went back to the corner and sat next to the wall out of their vision. He placed one of the reflective lenses on the ground and angled it in a way so he could see the situation without rounding the corner. He heard them speak.

"Hisoka! Let us through!" Killua said in an aggressive tone of voice. "Fine. If you explain who this other person with you is." Hisoka said. Why does Killua know Hisoka? A friend? No... Must be an enemy! That's not good! Crazy saw that they were getting ready to fight. However, they did not fight but instead switched places with each other.

"Lets go." Killua said to Crazy in a calm tone. Crazy hesitated before he turned the corner. I know that this is not a trap, but I have a strange feeling about something... He walked over to Killua he walked along right after Crazy went around the corner.

Killua nodded, "What is this?" Crazy asked him expecting him to know the bare minimum about this location.

"I don't know." Gee, real comforting, especially since we almost got in a battle... Crazy made a guess as to what it could be.It must be here to keep the ponies from following us in and killing us in here. Crazy concluded. This was the only conclusion that he would consider.

15 minutes before...Point of View: Jotaro Kujo...

Jotaro was currently facing the the footprints in front of him. The footprints started a while back and he had been following them for two minutes now. He had yet to come across anybody other than himself.

Jotaro knew that it was only a matter of time before he would be attacked. He had heard constant Thunder for a while now. He knew that they meant something, probably has to do with the maze, or so he presumed. The footprints stopped.

It's gone! Where are the rest of the footprints? Jotaro was confused, but what was known was that he needs to keep his guard high. He continued forwards.

Maybe it jumped? It's possible, but I have never seen anything jump so far that I can't find its prints anymore. Is it possible that this person was picked up by some sort of animal with wings and attacked? He heard a thump, indicating something had fallen to the front right of him.

What was that? Jotaro ran to the next turn, and saw a corpse. He flipped over the corpse to see the person's face. Their face was an indistinguishable bloody mess.

Jotaro looked around him and saw something flying towards him to attack him. From Jotaro's perspective all he saw was a blur of multiple colors resembling a rainbow. Good grief, this was a trap. Jotaro turned and summoned his stand.

"Star Platinum The World!" Jotaro shouted at the creature. Time had stopped. That was his stand's ability other than hitting really fast and hard, his stand was very close range and could only attack within 5 meters of his body. The farther his stand was away from him in those 5 meters, the less damage.

"Yare Yare Daze (good grief in English). You should have planned better than just a straightforward attack." He looked at the pony. It had a rainbow mane with cyan fur, this creature was a Pegasus Jotaro thought.

"This fight was over before you landed a hit. Say hello for me to the person you killed."

Jotaro paused for a moment.

"In Hell."

Jotaro's stand punched a hole straight through the Pegasus's neck with a single loud 'ORA', which was shouted out by the stand.

"Soshi te wa kiwa mokidasu" (time has begun to move again in English) The pony with the rainbow mane, now with a new hole in its neck coughed and was sent flying from the force of the punch. The wound was bleeding uncontrollably. It did not go far until it fell and did not move. I need to be more careful from here on out... Especially since my location is now known.

13 minutes before Killua and Crazy make it to the exit... Point of view: Princess Celestia...

"Shit... If I have another stand user to worry about that will be bad. Especially if he has a stand like that... He could be some serious trouble for me if I wanna win this war. I have to get rid of him now." All of the artificial ponies Celestia had created were sent to go and attack Jotaro. All the while she activated the second part of the maze... the hardest part.

Time until second part of the maze is activated from present time: 7 minutes...
