Beginning...

        It was just an ordinary Friday night. Online school had ended, and I was ready to resume watching the anime I got so attached to. Hunter x Hunter is an amazingly entertaining anime, though most who watch it already know that. I hadn't bothered changing, too lazy to get out of my clothes. I was starting episode one of season two, hoping to binge it tonight- until I started feeling drowsy. The last thing I remembered was falling asleep, the sounds of the opening of Hunter x Hunter season two pouring into my eardrums through a small pair of ear buds.

        I felt myself wake up, feeling an uncomfortable ache in my joints as if I was laying on the ground. I slowly opened my eyes, only to hiss as the blinding sunlight slammed against my misty vision. "Where the hell am I? Am I...outside?" I muttered under my breath before I rubbed my eyes and blinked them open, only to be greeted by the sight of various trees and a large lake connecting to the ocean, a harbor not too far from where I was. "What the fuck?" I questioned to myself, disbelieving of what was right in front of me. "Now how the fuck did I get here?" I got up, dusting my ass off of moist soil. I looked around before spotting- GON!? I gaped, my eyes bulging comically as I stared in complete shock at the sight of said green-haired boy himself perched upon a large tree right above the water. His head was covered in leaves, his fishing rod gripped tightly in his hands as he stared down at the end of the line in concentration and determination.

        "No fucking way..." I whispered, frozen at what I was witnessing. Although I felt paralyzed, for some reason my body began moving towards him, wanting in get in on the action. 'Holy shit what do I even say!? Stop moving bitch!' I mentally cried, feeling anxiety well up in my chest as I walked closer to the boy. Thankfully, my feet stopped a few ways from the lake, and I stood in silence as I watched Gon fish. "Uh- h-hi!" I greeted out of nowhere, nearly startling the boy out of the tree. 'DUMBASS! YOU COULD'VE FUCKED HIS GROOVE UP!' I scolded myself in my head. He snapped his heard towards me in slight panic before relaxing and puffing his cheeks in frustration. "You scared me! I almost lost my grip on my fishing rod y'know!" he huffed before turning back to his task at hand. "Oh- um, sorry! But I was just- uh, wondering what you were doing?" I called out to him, coming up with excuses on the spot even though my brain was failing to function properly, still in shock at what was happening- if this was even real. "I'm fishing for the Master of the Swamp! My aunt said she'd let me go to the Hunter Exams if I caught it!" he exclaimed, a smile spreading on his face. I tilted my head and hesitantly asked, "Do you mind if I went up there with you and watch?" He eagerly nodded, "Sure! As long as you don't scare me again!" I nervously chuckled but smiled as I went up to the large tree.

        I stared up at where Gon was with a blank face. 'I HAVE NEVER CLIMBED A FUCKIN' TREE IN MY WHOLE DAMN LIFE. HOW DO I FUCKIN' DO THIS!?' I mentally screamed. "Okay, um," I sighed to myself before grabbing the side of the tree. And somehow, it was as if my body just knew what to do. I quickly climbed the tree, leaving me gaping at my hands in shock as I effortlessly moved like I knew how to climb trees my whole life. 'UM WHAT THE FUCK??' I questioned to myself, literally in disbelief at my sudden athletic ability. Deciding to act like this was completely normal in order not to make Gon suspicious of me, I plopped down behind him, watching the water. "So- um, my name's (Y/n). What about you?" I said quietly. "It's Gon! Nice to meet you (Y/n)!" he smiled at me, turning to head to look at me for a moment. "I've never seen you around the island before! You new here?" He asked me. "I kinda just woke up here. I don't know how I got here, actually." I admitted, figuring it wouldn't hurt to tell the truth. "Eh?! You just woke up here and you don't remember anything?" Gon said in surprise. I nodded, "Yeah, I don't know man...Um, how old are you?" I asked casually despite already knowing. It's better to form natural relationships than be all weird and shit, saying stuff like: "Oh I know a LOT about you! Hehe, I'm from another world!" ...Aha, yeah, we're not gonna do that.
