Walking around town trying to find something that caught my interest, besides being in my house as always. When walking I heard something about a thing called the hunter exam that two men were talking about, since it had caught my attention I asked the older males about it. "Excuse me, but what were you two men talking about?" I asked to the men.

"Oh - hey kiddo, why you interested?" One of the men asked to me. I nodded, they both looked at me then at each other. "Well, we were talking about the Hunter exam." One of the men answered with a cigar in my mouth and a big puff of smoke came out.

"The hunter exam?"

"Yea, it's an exam that if you can pass you can earn a fortune, and you could be known worldwide if you're good enough." He said while smoking a cigarette. This hunter thing sounds to interesting to pass up, so I asked how to get there, they said I had to take a boat to go.

After getting all the information needed I thanked them for telling me and went back home to pack, I really didn't have much left here that I had a reason to make me stay, yea, I was 12 but I was always looked down upon for being a loner and not having a mother or father figure and how my living conditions were.

So that's how I ended up on a boat with men that were twice my size, maybe even more. I looked around for a bit and saw a boy that looked about my age. 'He looks young, he looks the same age as me though..' I thought while curiosity filled my mind. Stepping over to the boy who seemed to be gazing at the sea in front of us, I had wanted a person to call as a friend, a friend to be by my side through this whole charade.

"Hello, I'm y/n," I introduced myself as I walked up to him, he looked at me and smiled. "Oh, hello y/n, I'm Gon,"He enthusiastically answered back as he extended his hand to shake mine, and I took it. "Hey, so, uhm, what's your age?" I asked as I took my hand away from the hand shake. "I'm 12, how about you?" He answered and questioned mine as he put his hand back on to his side. "Ah, that's good, I'm 12 as well," I answered with a little smile smile plastered over my face, I'm so glad that he's the same age. I have someone to talk to and not be judged about something stupid like my village does to me.

After a while of talking and looking around we saw a thin man that was, I think, a worker here at the boat getting picked on by some other workers. But then the captain told them to get back to work before anything else could happen. The thin worker started to pick up the apples that were dropped as he was getting picked on. Gon and I help him pick them up, he thanked us and then ran away with the box of apples. Me and Gon heard some noises from up above making us both curious, looking up we saw seagulls flying around in the air but in a strange way. As if something might happen or some sort of warning for us below. Gon jumped up from the place he was beside me to a pole, he went in an almost abnormal speed to the top. Clearing his nose he started to sniff around in the air underneath where the seagulls flew above.
