whale island.
｡ﾟﾟ･｡･ﾟﾟ｡
it was a strange small island. nothing like she had seen before in her whole life. times when she would run away for help, which was really only once, people on the streets of a big city aren't necessarily helpful.
they all shook her off and passed y/n off as a disobedient child. but here, people waved at her and smiled. it was foreign to her, since she didn't have much experience with adults, or really anyone at that.
"mito-san!" gon called as the three walked up the small hill. gon speed up and ran first, hugging mito. y/n walked beside killua, with her arm entangled with his. "you must be killua and y/n." mito said.
she gladly welcomed the three inside, quickly making tea for killua and y/n. she rambled on about how gon should have told he'd be coming. "oh, that reminds me." she said while grabbing plates, take a bath while i make something to eat."
"let's go killua!" gon said. "do i get to join?" y/n asked, placing a hand to her cheek. "of course not, idiot!" killua said and the two boys left. y/n sighed in disappointment and sipped the tea given to her.
mito and gon's grandmother had both looked at each other with an eyebrow raised, silently communicating with each other. y/n rolled her wrist, watching the liquid turn in the cup. her eyes wondered around the room, waiting for the two to get done.
finally the two came into the room, talking to each other. y/n stood up and smiled to the both of them, heading up the stairs. she swung around her bag, trying to look for the bathroom. she opened the first door she saw, and luckily, it was.
she left her old clothes at the door and washed herself off. she dipped into the bath, sliding down to where the water reached the top of her lips. she blew a few bubbles into the water, trying to find a way to entertain herself for a bit.
she wondered if all parents were like mito. y/n wondered how parents were at all. her mother was cold and rather withdrawn. leaving y/n to herself most of the time. her father was quite the same.
a heartless man. the one who tortured her most of the time, her mother watching from the other side of the room, unfazed. she had a distinct memory, of when she first tried to connect with her parents. and the last.
she shook away the memory, stepping out the bathtub. she dried herself and grabbed her other pair of clothes. she dressed herself, looking at her reflection. it was always strange. seeing yourself, it always set in her mind.
'why am i like this?' it was a question that couldn't be answered so simply. though she still wanted answers. a knock came from the door, "y/n, food is ready." killua said. "coming!" she tore herself away from the mirror.
she opened the door and ran down the stairs. she stepped into the room to be faced with a table filled with food. y/n grabbed a chair and sat next to killua. she noticed that they were doing some kind of ritual.
"what are you doing?" killua asked gon. "offering our thanks." gon said, opening an eye. y/n was confused by the concept. everyone opened their eyes and mito said, "let's dig in." though killua had already eaten some.
while killua and gon tried to eat whatever they could fit into their mouths, y/n picked a small amount of food. it wasn't a lot to others, but it was quite filling to her. "would you like some more?" mito asked y/n.
she shook her head, "this is quite fine." y/n dabbed her mouth with her napkin and waited for killua and gon to finish. gon showed his hunter license to mito. "does killua or y/n have one?" mito asked as she held up the plastic.
gon nodded, "y/n has one!" y/n nodded and pulled out her hunters license and held it up for the to see. mito nodded and gave the license back to gon, who placed it in his pocket. y/n flipped hers and placed it into her back pocket.
afterward gon took y/n and killua around the island. the three ran around the island, swimming, fishing, and laying under the stars. y/n laid her hands on her stomach as she laid supine. both gon and killua placed their arms underneath their head.
"hey gon." killua said and gon turned his head to killua. "what are you going to do now?" gon looked to the night sky, he said how he would gather information on his father before heading to yorknew city.
killua crossed a leg over the other, "what should i do?" gon sat up, "you should stay here and then go to yorknew with me!" y/n zoned out, tuning out their conversation. she stared closely to the stars.
y/n was sure they were connecting or bonding. but she didn't want to disrupt, or hear it for that matter. y/n sat up along with the three, now looking into the water. when the two stood she stood also, following beside the two.
