Your mother, killed by the sinister Phantom Troupe. You're lost in a dark world, a corrupt world, a world full of despair, driven by your hatred. It goes on for about another 3 years until 2 young Kurtans enlighten your life of despair, changing it into a world full of laughter, fun and content, especially, the bright Kurapika. Soon after this encounter of fate, you hear a disturbing and heart-breaking story on the news. All was gone, all taken from you once again. Loved ones departing away, your wall of joy , disintegrating again.
Now at 18, Y/n has managed to obtain a few scarlet eyes, to remember her 'family' by and for vengeance to the same monsters who killed her mother . Managing to obtain a few pairs of the eyes and becoming a successful blacklist hunter, she has become a bodyguard for Neon Nostrade, a wealthy spoiled fortune teller, in search of the scarlet eyes, which will be auctioned at the Yorknew city auction. While working for her, a new bodyguard shows up. A face, once full of light, now a face full of endless sorrow, agony and despair. A face you never thought to be seen again.

Akari is a Kurta who was born in Yorknew City, so she was never present for the massacre. As such, her life as a Kurta is very different from a true Kurta survivor.
Now in her early 20s, Akari has gotten used to a pretty routine life aside from occasional adventures as a Hunter. Her regular job at the local library is a very nice complement to her Hunter title. As a Crime Hunter, her job is to investigate crimes, and she uses the books around her to learn information relevant to those crimes.
On one uneventful day, Akari meets a nice, young fellow who visits the library for personal research to aide in his position as a Blacklist Hunter. Akari, a Hunter herself, is mesmerized by his intelligence.
Just when she thought that meeting the stranger was a lucky anomaly, things take an interesting turn as Akari teams up with two unlikely, and dangerous, individuals. One is in it for the help Akari can provide, and the other is just trying to keep her alive. It all comes down to a death match to see who will win - Akari's team or the deadly threat.
Note: Some of the original characters may be slightly different from the manga/anime characters, and some may be completely out of character. Additionally, the book does not follow the timeline of the original story.
Warning: Language & several mentions of death. (After all, this is HxH we're talking about.)
Disclaimer: I do not own Hunter x Hunter or its characters. I do own the plot, the OC's, and the book cover image.
