 Why was she here?

 That little question echoed throughout (Y/N)'s mind as she stared at her competitors. Here she was, leaning against one of the many walls at the Hunter Exam site, not a single clue to why she signed up. Perhaps it was because the exams were supposed to be difficult? Perhaps she wanted to test her strength? Maybe she was just bored out of her mind; there were so many possibilities. One of them was fate, maybe fate was the one to bring her here. She held up her skateboard, the only item she carried from home, and let her attention drift to where the elevator was located.

 The usual ding from the speaker above reached her ears. To be honest, she was sick of the sound. Arriving early apparently had its disadvantages, for she was forced to hear that exact ding every time someone arrived. Do note, (Y/N) was examinee #102, and by now at least 300 more people had arrived. Imagine such an irritating noise every time someone left the elevator. Oh, you don't want to? Yeah, I didn't think so.

 Just when she was about to sigh in slight exasperation, a rather plump man made his way up to her. (Y/N) immediately narrowed her (E/C) eyes at the stranger, not trusting him in the slightest. This was the Hunter Exam after all. Everyone was out to decrease the competition, and due to her height she was definitely one to be picked on. On top of that she was a Rookie which only made matters worse.

"Why, hello there!" he greeted, bringing up his hand as if to offer a handshake, "My name is Tonpa. It's nice to meet you!"

 Unfortunately, the reaction (Y/N) gave Tonpa was not one that he had expected. The girl merely sneered and walked away from him, practically saying he wasn't worth her time. Of course, that was the message she hoped to get across. She was an individual who believed action spoke louder than words. Let's just say her actions could write a song one-thousand miles long. Well...not really...but, you obviously get the point, don't you? As (Y/N) walked away, she didn't notice the glare that was boring into the back of her head, and even if she did...she wouldn't really care.

 She tugged at the hood that was pulled over her head and sighed. Her attention was soon gifted to the ceiling as she walked forward, completely oblivious to her surroundings. All that was on her mind was how boring the exams were turning out to be. It didn't even start yet, and she was already contemplating her choice on joining. That was not good, not good at all. Due to her not being aware of her current surroundings, she barely noticed the individual in front of her. And so, (Y/N) went crashing into said person, the force sending them in opposite directions. She landed on her poor bum, causing her to cringe from the sudden landing.

 "Owie..." she heard someone whine, which resulted in her looking at the person she crashed into. They seemed to around her age, that age being twelve years old, and was dressed in all green. Well, not necessarily all green, but it was close enough. Not to mention, they were male, along with most of the people that were here. (Y/N) let her eyes travel to the two people beside him and noted their concerned faces. Well, only one of them seemed concerned. The other one simply looked ready to burst at any moment. She wasn't surprised though, he looked old and she knew old people were always miserable.

"Hey! You need to apologize!" the old man shouted before pointing at her...how rude. (Y/N) unconsciously rolled her eyes and got to her feet, brushing herself off propping up her skateboard again. She could see the old man tapping his foot. He was seriously waiting for her to give an apology, almost as if he was the one being insulted. Not wanting to cause any problems, she sent a quick bow in the green boy's direction, only to hear chuckling after doing so. Was he...laughing at her? (Y/N) rose an eyebrow and stared at Greeny (it's what she'll call him until she gets a name), wondering what was wrong with him.

"You don't need to be sorry! It was an accident," he spoke with a grin, "My name is Gon, Gon Freecss! That's Kurapika-" he gestured to the blond beside him "-and that's Leorio." He then proceeded to point at the old man. These guys obviously didn't know that pointing was rather rude. The blonde, apparently named Kurapika, gave a curt nod and a small "hello." He obviously didn't seem like the type to automatically open up, but (Y/N) was like that as well, so she understood his attitude.

 Then there was the old man, other wise known as...Leoreo...Lerio? She didn't really bother paying attention to his name. He appeared to be satisfied after the little bow, not completely, but it was good enough. He sent her a large smile and nodded in confirmation that he was, indeed, Lerario...or whatever. To be honest, he seemed rather nice when he wasn't yelling and pointing at "innocent" strangers.

 "What's your name?" Greeny- Gon, she meant Gon -questioned. After mulling over whether to speak or not, (Y/N) began to open her mouth, only to be interrupted by the sound of a familiar voice.

 "Hi! My name is-" Oh no, it was that round man, Tonpi...but, she recalled his name ending with an 'a.' Oh well, it wasn't as if he really mattered! (Y/N) quickly twirled around and walked off, abruptly leaving the trio. That guy was their problem now, not hers. Once she stopped her little walk, she could hear the loud sound of someone screaming, but paid no mind. It wasn't her business, so why should she bother? Only a few minutes after that did she hear another sound, this one reminding her of a whistle. (Y/N) turned her head in the direction others were facing, and noticed a man with lavender hair and...a french mustache?

 "Hello and welcome to the Hunter Exams. My name is Satotz and I am the examiner of the first stage. Please, follow me, and try to keep up."

 Finally, it was time to get things started.
