Okay think Gon, why would he suddenly leave you?...Was it because of the fight? No that's not enough to leave over.

"Mr. Freecss!"

Mr. Freecss?

Gon was standing outside of an apartment complex when a young man came over to him. He immediately recognized the boy as one of his students. Him and Killua both trained a handful of students to earn their double star Hunter ranks.

"What are you doing here?" "I'm a target." The boy said it as if he had just been diagnosed with a deadly disease. "Mr. Freecss, I know I am probably going to die-" "Don't say that!" Gon felt helpless. "But I've been putting some clues together. I have been investigating all the hunters who've gone missing, and a large majority of them are you and Mr. Zoldyck's students." Gon was shocked. This hunter was killing people who had been close to him and Killua. So maybe the person behind it had a grudge with the two, or something.

"I think only two of them weren't students. It was...Mr. Wing? And Biscuit Krueger." "What!?" Gon's heart sank. His own Nen masters had been two of the targets? How was that so? The case was thought to have been solved years ago. What did Mr. Wing nor Bisky have to do with any of this!?

Bisky and Wing's deaths had been old news, but he hadn't known they had been killed by the Hunter Hunter. During the time of their deaths the Hunter Hunter didn't even exist.

"By the way, where is Mr. Zoldyck?" Gon snapped out of his thoughts. "Oh, he..." The boy began leaking aura as if he was bleeding out.

"What the!? Who is doing this!?" Gon looked around but saw nobody.

"Mr. Freecss, it's inevitable. You have to find the one doing this." The boy tried to stop his aura from draining, but it was no use.

If Killua was here he could use his En to find the assailant.

Gon watched on helplessly as his student failed to fight back and close his aura nodes.

"Hold on." Gon caught the boy, who's legs had collapsed.

"Mr. Freecss, please...don't let anymore die..." Gon watched the last bits of life energy leave the boy's body. It felt like he was being stabbed in the heart. Was all that training he taught this kid for nothing? How dare someone take a precious life like this.

The boy disappeared from his hands. And with a stoic look, Gon began running to an Airport. He was going to get Killua, and make him help find this Hunter Hunter if he liked it or not.
