The Ex-Assassin's Girl (Remastered 2020)

Chapter 12: Hunting Continues

KILLUA's POV

As I walked out on the ship next to Y/N, I started running to find her, and trying to conceal my presence. Still! I will be watching over her and protect her.

I'm still searching her. She's been so fast to get far from this time huh.

As I found her, I jump to the one of the tree looking over to Y/N in the high grass area. I'm in a bit of surprised founding out the Y/N is very quick, she even found her target. She's far behind to pokkle, who was also far behind to a guy, might be Pokkle's target. As I watched them, my heart pound faster, getting nervous for Y/N. Geez! I hope she won't get hurt. Did she even know what she's doing right now?! Did she even planned for this? Urgh! I can't afford to loose you now! Not right now! So pleaa-- I was cut by my surpised of what Y/N does who is now holding a staff, I guess? But where is that came from?

My eyes widened as I saw Pokkle unconciously lying on the grass besides the guy's dead body--What!??? Dead body? Who killed him? Oh shoot! Good! I was relieved when I saw there's an arrow struck at the guy's chest, so Pokkle killed him. I thought Y/N killed it. I sigh. I don't want Y/N to kill anyone. I don't want her hands to get dirty with a crimson blood of a man. Isn't that sweet?! Huh!?! *smirk*

Wai---URRGH!!! Where is she?!!!!! I'm spacing out that I can't notice that Y/N is gone. I need to find her again. Is this hide and seek?! Urrrrgh! Wait hide and seek? Hide and seek of feelings? What am I thinking?! 😑

I'm not bothered to find my target anyways. I need to find Y/N first.

I found Y/N up on the tree sleeping while I am at the other tree looking at her. Hey! Is she nuts? What if she fall from there. Grrr! Though you are strong Y/N please just take care of yourself. Be careful! Urrrgh! I'm very worried with you every time, that it feels like I'm gonna die for every wrong move that you'll do. I just don't want you to get hurt.

"I know you're there!" My eyes suddenly widened as she spoke while her eyes are close. How? So her senses is also good now. I'm very impressed.

"Get out now!" She added but what I'm very shock at her last words. ".....Killua." She knows it was me?! I sigh and jump out from the tree where I've been, to the tree where she at.

I look at her while I am standing at the branch of the tree. She opened her eyes. I can't read her emotions now. "I know you're following me. I can sense it."

"S-sorry." I said stuttering. I looked down and hid my eyes with my bangs.

"N-no. I-I'm sorry." I am surprise for what she said and I stare at her eyes, the tears started forming at her eyes, then it began to fall.

No. No! Don't cry! Don't fall little tears, you are precious. I ran quickly to her and held her tears and wipe it out. "Sshh! Don't cry. Don't cry. This tears are precious." I said with my sweet voice. She lightly punch my chest. I smile at her while she's looking at me and I stare at her beautiful eyes.

"Killua. I am sorry for what was I said. It is just that my mind was very shock and clogged up by many things, that I can't think clearly. So please. I am sorry. Gomene." I hugged her in response. She didn't expect it I know, because her body became stiff at first, but slowly loosen up and return the hug. My face started to heat up. Her touch can't process my body system. It heated up and my face getting redder and redder. She pulled and looked at me, "A-are you ok? Don't you feel well?" As she checked my forehead.
