Thank you for 500 reads :)

-----------------

It's now been a couple of days. Gon has been calling me, saying he's training for the testing gate. I'm so proud of the boys for going through all this trouble for Killua, I've never seen anyone more determined to see their friend.

Although just when I thought I would be let go after running away for ten years, my parents certainly didn't forget. I did get punished, worse than Kil, since I am older.

I only got electrocuted, burned, and slapped around for a day, so it wasn't too terrible. Maybe since it was Illumi doing the punishment, he didn't want to go too hard on me, even though I told him I can handle it. Killua was still getting whipped in the other room by Milluki.

Just as I was untying myself free from the ropes, Illumi walks in.

"Did I go too rough on you?"

"Nope. I'm perfectly fine." I smile, getting the last of the ropes off of my legs.

"Would you like me to care for your wounds?"

"If you don't mind." Illumi nods and I follow him into his room. I sit on his bed while he heads to the bathroom to pull out a few necessities.

He comes back with some gauze and a few medical liquids and whatnot, and he sits beside me on the bed.

"You know, if mother and father weren't so overwhelmed about you returning home, your punishment would have been way worse."

"Yes, Illu. I'm aware of the consequences."

"So why did you run? I know it's not just because of the way this family runs things."

"I....I wanted to live a normal life. I had the exact same intentions as Kil."

"You are incapable of such things, Y/N. You are an assassin, and that's all you'll ever be, no matter what type of life you've lived and have been living."

"I understand." I stopped talking back to Illumi, he would just try to manipulate me more about how this family runs, and what my job is, and I didn't want to go through the process of having to explain myself how I've lived differently from them for a decade. They wouldn't care.

Illumi finishes wrapping my wounds up and down my entire body, and I make my way out of his room.

"Thank you, Illu. For taking care of me."

"Only for you, little sister." He pats my head. I smile at his charismatic feeling. I liked it when Illumi was much more gentle on his own terms, and not just because mother or father said so.

I make my way through the halls to look for father, who was most likely in his room. I head towards the front door and knock lightly.

"Who is it."

"It's Y/N father."

"Come in princess." I smile at the name, he never used another nickname. For him, I would always be his princess.

I slowly open the door, and met with my father's catlike eyes.

"Is there anything you need?"

"May I see Killua now? I'd like to speak with him." He thinks for a second before responding.

"Yes, you may. Follow me." I follow father through the halls, and we stop in front of a door with bars.

"Thank you, father." He nods and walks away. I slowly open the door, just to see Killua chained up, and Milluki with a whip in his hand, hitting Kil every few seconds.
