My morning starts off with a loud bang, to which I got used to by now bt would scare a normal human shitless, but i'm not a normal human: i'm Mia, the 251st floor master, also known as - The Empress. But enough about me, the bang indicates i need to be ready in one hour - another death match: something i have on a daily.
My nen abilities are one of the highest, if not the most, in York New which indicates that my technique that allows me to use and manipulate my own life energy; also known as aura.
I have to quickly run for a cold shower, washing all the blood stained hands from my other death match yesterday. The metallic smell hits my nose again and I scrunch my face up in disgust, you may think i got used to this after 3 years. No chance.
I face the mirror, intensely starring back at my wicked expression. Slowly my orangery red eyes go back to their normal color: blue. Everyone in the tower knew not to mess with me while my eyes were red; you could predict the match was won just by the color of my eyes.
drip...
"Shit... I thought it'd would heal by the morning" my rough voice indicated soreness from yesterdays fight.
I glanced at my reflection in my rose bath tile, noticing my eye bleeding from yesterdays cut in battle. Yesterday....
"Ah..." I smile wickedly.
That professional hunter was worth something, his nen ability was powerful, but not powerful enough to take on the Empress. I get out of my luxury bath and look at my eye wound heeling itself quickly.

"Mia this is you final battle, preform an act for the crowd, it should end the day with a success" Harry smiled at me, I never blamed him for telling me what i need to do, after all he was just a figure in the game as well.
"okay sure" I waved him off ready to walk onto the arena.
"Please be careful Mia, this ones a professional hunter" He gave me a worried look.
"Oh don't worry, nothing can beat the Empress of the 251st floor" I laughed as i walked off.

"I should've listened to Harry yesterday, now i wouldn't be wasting time in front of a mirror waiting for my wound to heal!" I said recalling my memory.

The loud roars of the crowd brought a smirk to my face, the only good thing about me being locked in this fighting business is the glorious feeling as the crowd chants for you to kill them and of course the room and food i get.
"Be ready empress! You're going down today" He shouted, this one has a big ego. I mean its pretty impressive he got all the way past 250th floor, but this is where your life ends - we cant be having any weaklings in the gods spot, can we now?
The bell rung, suggesting my time to start the show - the insane look on my face came back again.
-Harry's POV-
Her insane face is back... I mean after 3 years who wouldn't go mad.
Mia made the first move, she doesn't like talking, she loves preforming in her game. She inflamed her fist and sent the hunter flying across the arena - this is going to be one sided.
"Oi, killua don't you think shes really strong? I can feel her power all the way here" a black haired boy shouted to his white haired friend in excitement - only if he really knew what happens here.
"Shes impressive Gon, but her blood lust is scary, reminds me of illumi" Killua thought mostly to himself.
Ah, Killua Zoldyck, from the famous assassin family. Heard him and his friend Gon are on floor 200 already wanting to challenge Mia - would be a waste of talent when she kills them...
"I feel bad for her though..." Killua glances at Mia as she throws the hunter in the air and blows a hit to his back with an egotistic laugh.
"Why?" Gon asks him clueless as he takes his eyes of the nearly finished fight.
Killua looks back at me and turns to Gon whispering something - they know. Luckily i'm on Mia side otherwise they wouldn't be safe.
I turned back to the fight, its pretty obvious Mia would win, she was uninjured and his hand was teared off. He was one of those who throws his words out and doesn't do anything - weak.
"Ill give you a chance here, prove me you're worth something" Mia smiled looking at me: here is the show. She got her daggers she always hides in her sleeves and threw them out into the crowd, they landed two seats away from Gon and Killua completely smashing them. She gave the kids a quick glance and focused back on the useless hunter as the crowed roared for more.
"Don't you dare count me as a weakling, ill kill you!" He screamed and charged at Mia, the look of shock showed on her face - why? He took out his sword and aimed for her face, her moving at the last second causing a wound on her eye.
I used Gyo, which lets you see other peoples aura by using you life aura on your eyes. "I see he used a similar technique to bungee gum and stuck her feet to the ground" I heard Killua, maybe hes not that weak after all.
The next thing i heard was the disgusting sound of guts being ripped out - Mia definitely wasn't happy about that but it made a performance even if it wasn't planned. I quickly made my way down to meet Mia as she will cause a massive destruction being unhappy about being struck.

I hurry up and get ready, as i cant be late. I only was late once; never again. They took my only day off from fighting and made me have three death matches, man was i tired, they were all professional hunters as well! Even for me it took two hours, little pests took long to die...
Today's prey better not be sneaky, ill have to be more careful and use gyo or maybe just kill him of straight away. I ran down to meet Harry as me and him have our breakfast together on a daily.
"Hey Mia, you alright after yesterday?" Harry greeted, hes so tall, even me being older than him.
"Ye why wouldn't i be" I answered blankly, today was not a happy day; it never is, so why should i be happy.
"Killua its that gir-" a black haired boy whisper shouted before a white haired boy, named Killua, shut him off. A Zoldyck? probably, they all have this deadly aura. They're already on 200th floor - impressive for 12 year olds.
"Hurry up Mia! You'll be late" Harry shouted with a pouting face - such a child.
_
"Sorry Mia i wasn't able to stay, the organisation made me do paper work" Harry passed me a towel for me to clean up all the blood.
"Its fine, I had some fun taunting him, he has weak but fun to play with" I let some of my blood lust slip but quickly sealed it from anyone noticing.
"You saying things like that make me uncomfortable..." Harry looked away "Anything unusual?"
"No, not reall- actually there was this burst of powerful blood lust I felt just as i killed my prey, it was someone in the audience the only glimpse of them i caught was bright pinkish purple hair" I thought to myself, finding it quite weird as mostly normal civilians come to watch - who don't use nen.
"Maybe its just a hunter that wants to fight you so came to check your fighting style, don't overthink it" Harry smiled as he lead me to the door of my luxurious room and left.
Well i'm sure as hell excited to meet the person if they're here to fight me, their power was such an amusing experience to feel i'm excited to see this again. Maybe... just maybe... No. No one can beat the Empress - I started hysterically laughing.
-
I wake up to an open door, "Hmmm... somebody wants to die today", i haven't moved yet but i can feel their heart beat fastening.
B-DUMP
B-DUMP
B-DUMP
"I know exactly where you are, doll" I smiled to myself, this person is so stupid, they didn't even hide their presence.
