The Love of Hanaku (Killua x OC)

Chapter 5

We were now on an airship heading to the 3rd phase of the exam. Netero told us to gather around him for an announcement for a second.

"I will now take the opportunity to introduce myself properly to the remaining 42 applicants. I am Netero, the chairman of the selection committee for this year's Hunter exam. It is a pleasure to meet all of you."

It was then that I had just noticed the small green guy that I saw at the first part of the exam standing next to Netero. "And I'm his secretary, Beans." I had originally planned to make my appearance during the exam's final phase but, well, seeing as how I'm already here...I have to admit, there's nothing I love more than this feeling of tension in the air. So, I think I'll stick around for the remainder of the trip." Netero explained. Kil started yawning. "Kil." I whisper yelled as I elbowed him.

"We are scheduled to arrive at our destination tomorrow morning at 8:00 a.m exactly. You'll find dinner waiting for you in the dining hall. You're also welcome to get some rest, of course. You're free to do as you please until we contact you. The evening is yours." Beans explained. "Hey, come on Gon, Hana. Let's go and explore the airship!" Kil said. "Yeah!" me and Gon said at the same time.

"Hey, kids, what are you doing? Stay out of the kitchen! Go eat in the dining hall with the others." I watched as Kil and Gon got kicked out of the kitchen by a chef. "I tried to tell you two." "Yeah, yeah. Here ya go." Kil said, handing me a chicken leg. "YAY! You actually got it for me. Thank you!" I said squealing with excitement. Yeah whatever." Kil said.

We walked around the airship a little bit more, eating out chicken then Kil pointed at the window. "Hey guys look!" "What is it?" Gon said. "WOW! It's so pretty. I could look at this all night." I said. "It's like it's covered in jewels." Gon said. "Yeah!" Kil said.

"Hey.....So I was wondering.....Your parents, are they— I mean.....Where are they?" Gon asked. "Jeez took ya long enough to ask Gon." I said chuckling. "They're alive. Probably." Kil answered. "Probably?" I said. "What do they do?" Gon asked. "They're assassins." "They both are?" Gon asked. "Wow. That's so cool!" I said. Kil started laughing. "That's your response? You too really are riots aren't ya?" "Riots?" I was confused cause I didn't know what that meant.

We all then sat down on the nearby bench. "You're not the first people I've told about my family, but you're the first to take it seriously." Kil said. How do you not take the statement seriously? "But it's true isn't it?" Gon asked.

'Why'd ya think that?" Kil responded. "Just a hunch." "Weird!" Kil said, sighing and resting his head on the window seal. "Most of the time, people only like me because they can't tell if I'm being serious or not." Kil explained. "What? That's weird." I said.

"I'm from a family of assassins. So, yeah, they're all in the business of murder. And my entire family....They've got real high hope for me. But ya know....I can't stand it. Who wants their whole life mapped out for them?

When I told them I wanted to decide my own future, they all flipped out. It was crazy! My mom had tears just streaming down her face and she kept screaming at me how I had the potential to be a top assassin. Horrible parent right? No wonder I'm rotten."

Me and Gon just laughed. "I don't think you're rotten Kil. I think you're really sweet. Like peaches." I said with a smile. "I thought you said I was a rotten blueberry." "Hey don't go using my words against me! I changed my mind okay." Kil just chuckled a bit, and there was that feeling again.

"Anyway, we started fighting, so I slashed my mom in the face, stabbed my brother in the side, and ran away from home. I'm sure they're out for blood now. If they all come after me, I'll kill 'em! When I get my license, I'll hunt them down to the last one! I'm willing to bet they've got pretty hefty bounties on their heads." It was kinda weird how he was getting excited about killing his parents, but imma let him do his thing.
