Of flames and lighting

Chapter 5

Kyriak found herself being a mischievous child with gon and killua, exploring the airship that was taking them to the next exam. Wherever that may be.

"Oh, look at this! It looks like a diamond!" gon pointed out of a window, pointing to the city lights below them.

She tilted her head in thought, "I never seem a diamond look like that..."

"Really? You've seen a diamond" gon exclaimed in surprised while killua looked at her with interest.

She nodded, "I make Jewely as well as weapons, sometimes people ask for custom made ones with gems"

"Suigo!" the boys exclaimed from either side of her.

"Ne~ killua?" gon started.

"Yeah..." killua glanced towards the other boy.

"Have you got parents?" kyriak tilted her head eyes flickering between the two. How did the conversation take a turn? Was it because the author needed it to continue?

"Yes, of course."

"What do they do?" gon asked intrigued, next to him kyriak perked up interested.

"Assassins" came killua blunt reply.

"Both of them?" gon line of questioning continued.

"Phaf" killua let out a sound before breaking into laugher Apon seeing gons serious face and kyriak curious one.

"You really got me going! That's the first time someone's listened to me seriously and asked me that afterwards!" killua turned toward them.

"Why? It's true, isn't it?" questioned kyriak, not seeing the issue most would have it you had professional killers for parents.

"What makes you say that?"

"Nothing really" gon answered for her.

"you're really strange you can never tell if you're serious or if you're joking. That's what give you your charm"

"Oh?"

Killua turned towards the night sky out the window – though it didn't look like a diamond it did look like glittering Jewels or a reflection of the stary skies on the ground. Kyriak concentrated on killua words – making sure to paid attention to the slivernette words. It was hard but she managed to get the jist of it. Lots of pressure of the family because he's the heir, does that means he's the oldest? Wanted to break free, stabbed his mum and brother while he ran away.

"Phf-hahahaha!" killua broke down into laugher, pointing at kyriak. "You got a serious look on your face."
