Chapter 2

"Hunter? Why you wanna know that?" Illumi looked at me with his blank, emotionless eyes.

"I just stumbled upon the term several times abroad, and wanted to know what it is" I rolled my eyes and looked at him, deeply studying his heartless, cold-blooded face. Killua strolled towards us, hands in his pockets, looking bored.

After I spend two years away from them, us three decided to meet at our usual spot, a small abandoned, fully destroyed village consisting of ruins. It was coated with the smell of carrion and blood, which repelled any animals and humans from living here. But for us it was...a safe place. No mother or dad, torturing us. Just us. Although Illumi refused to join, he still came, which made me smile a bit.

Killua looked up, starring at Illumi, his face expressing deep hatred and a tiny amount of fear. He turned away, mumbling something I couldn't understand. "If you're going to talk to us, speak clearly" Illumi flew forward, grabbing Killuas sleeves and dragging him down. He released terrifying, blood lusting aura, which even caused me to step back a bit. He's only a year oder, but I'm still not able to withstand his aura... I want to be as good as him. Will this hunter thing help me?

"I said, if you two are going to take the hunter exam and get an hunter license, you'd have a lot more possibilities killing higher ranked individuals. It's a lot easier." Killua said, getting up from the ground, avoiding Ilumi's penetrating stare. I lowered my head a bit, thinking to myself.

A hunter license would help me? I mean, if it doesn't harm, why not? I'm kinda sick of all this blank killing anyway, its not any fun. They're all so damn weak.
I looked up, and shot out of my mouth like a gun," I want to be hunter!"
I blushed, seeing both Illumi and Killua starring at me confused and rather surprised.

I guess I've never really wanted something like this. I never requested anything either. I wonder, why do I want it?
I stared blankly into the sky, remembering my teenage years, the time my name was known in all underground organizations. Cat.

I want to go back. Back to the days where I faced death multiple times, where surviving was a challenge. But it was one I loved. It filled my heard with joy. And I felt less empty. Now there's just, a hole in my heart. Nothing will make me feel the way I did back then. Except. This...

"Yo Yami" Killua looked at me, smiling just a tiny bit, his eyes expressing joy.
Finally something else than boredom and sadness. It's been long since I've seen you smile Killua...

I smiled back, the blush still partly visible. "It's been long since you used my name, small bro" I laughed at his pouting face when he heard me call him small bro. He was just too cute. "Anyway", he looked away, his ears tips turning pinkish, "If you wanna take the hunter exam so badly, why dont you just join me and Illumi?"

"You guys are taking the hunter exam?" I jumped up from the small brick I was sitting on and looked at them, my eyes sparkling just a bit. Why am I so exited...?

"I'm just doing it for a job, not cause I want to" Illumi said, as plane as ever. "If you join, be sure to ignore me. I don't want you both sticking by my side all the time" he said, walking away and jumping from roof to roof and disappearing in the distance. I watched him go, but then turned towards Killua, chuckling slightly. "Hm?" Killua looked at me, clearly confused. "I guess he really didn't change. It's been two years after all." I said, sitting back down. " Yeah you're right", Killua said, sitting down next to me. "As weird as it sounds", I looked up, seeing the red and yellow colored clouds pass by,"I did miss you two. You just bring out my soft side. I haven't smiled as much these past years as I did now."
"I-missed you too, Oneesan. It was lonely without you." Killua mumbled under his breath, just loud enough for me to hear. I leaned towards him and kissed his forehead softly, pulling him into a warm hug. What's wrong with me? Where's my cold heart? I guess Killua still is my weak spot.

"Let go of me. God that's embarrassing" Killua pushed me away, turning away, his face heating up a bit. I laughed, but got serious shortly after. "So for this hunter exam, what do I have to do?" I asked. "I dont know. There are 4-5 Exams you have to pass. It's in two days, if you want to join, meet me hear tomorrow at ten. Ill take you" with that he turned away, hands in his pockets, walking away. "You know Kill. You really grew a lot. But you're still cute as ever" I chuckled, seeing his face redden. "Tch. Whatever" he clicked his tongue and left me alone, sitting under the now dark sky, starring up into the stars.

In two days, huh? I guess I'll give it a try...

(A/N) I'm really sorry its so short. Expect more in chapter 3 :)
