"You're good! I heard if you drink too much of that you'll catch a cramp. Stop being so nervous and go" Irene says, pushing Gon on the track.
"Okay okay I get it" Gon says as he walked to his designated lane.
"Is this your first year or something" A white haired boy laughed.
"Uh actually my second, I started in sixth grade" Gon answered as he stretched.
The boy paused to take a better look at Gon. "You're saying you're a seventh grader?" he says.
"Yes.. why do you sound so shocked?" Gon asks.
The boy laughed hysterically as he got into take off position. "No reason, I'm Killua. I'm sure you would figure that out anyway, you might want to get ready to take off, if you know what that is yet" Killua says.
"Of course I know what it is.. Killua. I'm Gon" Gon says as he got into position.
Seconds later the starting pistol went off.
"You got this Gon!" his friend Irene shouted as they began sprinting.
Killua, Killua Zoldyck was a 13 year old boy who dominated his division when it came to running track.
"Wow that boys fast, don't you think Kikyo" Killua's father, Silva says.
"It seems as though he is.. not faster than Killua of course" Killua's mother, Kikyo says as she lifted her sunglasses to get a better look.
The crowd cheered as Gon closed the gap between himself and Killua moments before the finish line.
"Yes! That was great Gon!" Irene says running over giving him a hug.
Gon laughed. "Was it?"
"Um duh? What was your time?!"
"14.83 I think I may have won" Gon says excitedly.
"I think you did too! I guess we'll have to wait and see" Irene says smiling.
Killua glared as he'd listened in on their conversation, knowing he ran a 15.02. He walked off in resentment having this been his first time placing anything other than first in his event.
5 years later
"Guess what I heard" Irene says.
"Spill" Gon responded.
"This better not be another rant about Keyaun flirting with some girl.. again" their friend, Jenson says.
"First of all, I told you we were done! I was being serious.. and of course it's not about that. It's not even about me!" Irene says.
"Girl, just tell us" Gon says.
"Okay okay, I heard some of the team is being sent to an invitational at Da Vinci" Irene says.
"An invitational? The season hasn't even started yet" Jenson says.
"It's sort of a training type of thing.. at least I think it is. Derek told me but you know he isn't always reliable" Irene says.
"Definitely, that is a bit weird of them if that's all true" Gon says.
"But if it is true you'll get to see your bestie Gon" Jenson teased.
"Please shut up, that boy is far from being my best friend.." Gon says as the bell rung.
"And that is my signal to leave. I have an interview guys, I'll see you guys later" Gon threw up a peace sign as he exited the class.
"Bye!" Irene says.
"Later" Jenson says.
Gon had a handful of friends, but Irene Clayton and Jenson Walker were the only people he could truly call his friends.
