A/N:Hey! N.B.Kitsune here. Someone might recognize me from the 'Yu-gi-oh' section of FF.net. Here's my first HxH piece.
It's a Leorio-centric fic. ^_^ *flashes the 'V' sign* Why? He so happens to be my favorite character. Don't looked so shocked. Hehe. ^^;; Well,anyways, enjoy this one-shot rambling piece to everyone's favorite(Or at least my favorite. X_x;) doctor-to-be. I'm sorry it's sort of depressing..
Standard Warnings/Notes:Gomen, I don't have spellcheck so I may mess up some spellings...As always, positive comments and constructive criticism are welcome. Flames on the other hand, will be used to toast marshmallows and to chase flamers themselves.
Standard-everyday-semi-original-disclaimer:I don't own Hunter X Hunter. I wish I owned Leorio, but that won't happen anytime soon,I'm sure *Sob*. It all belongs to Togashi-sensei.
================================
You know, life is funny sometimes.
Not in the joking sense of things, but you know, that kind of funny.
Am I making any sense? Ah,who cares.
Where was I again? Oh yeah.
Life is inherently funny..It throws the strangest things in your face.
I mean, look at me, I passed the hunters exam.
Then again, it was a lucky break that I had my friends to rely on passing the blasted thing.
But..
Now that I've relied on them so much...Do they see me as the weakest one?
First impressions die hard you know.
I should know from experience. I know I come off as some money-grubbing,asshole of a jerk at first, but what can you do? It's a tough world out there.
'Asshole of a jerk'..I think a waitress called me that at one time...I've been called so many things that I can't even remember half of them.
I can't say a majority were of the positive kind though.
Hn..now that I think of it...I probably am the weakest. I haven't even mastered Nen yet. Oh, I thought I had got it down pat, but then Gon points out it's only Ten.
How the hell was I supposed to know that? I've only been studying for exams. No big deal, all I was doing was studying the effects of advanced effects of medical conditions that even I have trouble pronouncing sometimes.
Excuse me for a second for that. I'm not mad at Gon for pointing it out or anything, I mean the kid's like a little brother to me. It's just that I was hoping that, for once, I did something on my own, you know? Without the others as my training wheels.
You're probably asking youself by now 'Why did I even bother going through all this shit if your screwing yourself over with all this introspection?'
Because, I have a promise to keep.
I did it all, the Hunter exam, med school, for my best friend.
When I think of him, even now, it's hard. I think about how he died, and how I was too poor to do anything but watch him waste away.
Then I think of the people now,people who were probably worse off than I was. Stuck in the same situation, not even able to get some medicines for a simple cold, a cold that develops into pnumonia, and just... Christ, even worse, there's little kids that go through this all, just because they're too poor.
That's why I do this. So I can help these people. Who knows? Maybe there'll be another Pietro, and this time I'll be able to help him. It's the least I can do. Some sort of rememberance you could say.
I suppose I've gone off tangent more than a few times...I guess there has to some meaning to it all...
I'll sum it up with what I said at the start.
Life..It's funny sometimes.
