World Hunter (HXH Naruto Crossover)

"You could have killed him," Killua said matter of factly, staring in such confusion at Sasuke that it caused the shinobi to pause.

Sasuke's head cocked to the side, and Killua stuffed his hands into his pockets, frowning.

"You were obviously stronger than him, and he laid the terms-" he clicks his tongue- "It would have been easier."

Under normal circumstances, Sasuke wouldn't have offered anything more than a grunt-if he bothered to offer one at all.

But in this moment-staring at Killua's genuine confusion, as if killing the man was the only option he had ever known, as if everything Sasuke had done was as foreign to him as Konoha would surely be, Sasuke felt as if he should say something.

So he looks away for a second-thinking-wondering what Naruto would say before he finally answers.
