Hello yukicole02 here. I have decided to try my hand at a HunterxHunter fanfic. It has actually been a while since I wrote a fic and I am unsure as to how this will go but I hope it will go over well.

Summary: Killua and Gon find themselves in a strange town after being led astray by a kind woodsman. If being attack on there way their wasn't enough they end up being thrown in the middle a religious town uprising. Even after things calm down they find that their new companion is more trouble than they are actually worth bringing more trouble as their travels continue.

Pairings: Killua x Oc and maybe others in the future.

Chapter 1

UnexpectedxTown

Killua and Gon. They dynamic duo. Most could say they were two peas in a pod. In short the two worked really well together. These two friends were currently on their way to god knows were since at this very moment they were lost. There was no actual reason for them being lost it was just the expert directions that they got from a woodsman about a week ago has gotten them lost in a vast and empty forest devoid of human life. The reason it's human life and not life is because there was life in this forest. Oh yes there was. In fact Killua actually wished about half way through the week that they had ended up in a barren wasteland with no life than deal with the constant threat of an attack from some foreign species that he had no idea what its weakness was. The forest itself was no form of enjoyment either. The tree tops were thick barely letting in any form of light. This made the entirety of their surroundings look like it was either early evning to late afternoon. Then when night actually fell over the place it was pitch black. It made it difficult for one to see what was in front of them. So by this time in the week the two boys were completely exhausted. They hadn't been able to get a wink of sleep all week. In fact it was a complete miracle that either male was able to function properly at all.

Both boys were currently in a fighting stance which is actually the same stance they been in for literally the last 6 days (today being the 7th). The two were surrounded by large shadow like beast. Although they had no visible mouth the creatures gave off a low growl that would have normally sent any human being running for the hills and the boys probably would have fled were it not for the fact that these beasts were fast. So running from them was not an option but then again fighting wasn't either. Dispite the fact that there was no visible mouth on these beast they had sharp claw as well as a rough body. Any contact with them resulted in injury in some way, shape, or form. Why not hide you may ask. That of course was one of the first things the boys had tried upon figuring out that they couldn't out run or fight them. Though unfortunately for them the beast had an impecible sense of smell. They were simply unable to at this moment able to figure out how to defeat these beast and because of this simple fact the boys are currently fighting on fumes. Both boys were breathing quite heavily. While Gon was completely prepared to continue to fight until he died Killua was trying desperately (which is a word one would barely use to describe Killua's actions) trying to figure out some way to get them out of this situation. Surprisingly enough and to his dismay he couldn't think of anything. Could this possibly be where they die? The thought had occurred to both boys many times before but they had always been able to some how push it down and prevail over every other obsticle and yet some how this seemed some what impossible.

Killua growled gritting his teeth a bit. Some how they needed to get out of this. Just there had to be some way that they could get out of this. Then suddenly the beasts all came to attack at once. Bracing themselves both boys put their arms up in defense waiting for the attack to come but it never did. When they looked from behind their defense to see what was happening. The beast had stopped. They seemed to be frozen where they stood mid attack and suddenly they fell apart. Some in half. Others diagonally. They were all cut in a way in which they would surely die. That there would be no possible way that they could live through it. It was a very precise and calculated attack. Killua was sure he didn't do it and was positive Gon didn't since the other boy was as impulsive and stubborn as a race horse. Finally their bodies realizing that the impending danger was over they collapsed. There was no way after what they had went through for them to actually continue to function after that so the two boys just stopped functioning completely. In short they had passed out.


Killua found himself waking up in a strange place. At first he was unsure at all as to why he had been asleep at all. Then when the memories finally caught up to him he immediately became alert and began to analyze his surroundings. The room he was in was a normal size and nicely decorated adorned with red and gold paint. Their was a few intricate designs on the wall that would have caused the silver haired male to stare and examine more but he was currently more concerned about the fact that he was in a strange place and their was no sign of his friend. He decided that it was about time that he got up from the bed he was currently. He moved the pale yellow sheets off him and got up from the bed. Surprisingly he felt great. His body didn't feel heavy at all. In fact he felt quite refreshed. It was like he had been asleep for days. This only gave him a bit of relief. That meant if worst came to worst he could easily fight off his opponent. He walked over to the door and pulled it open. He was almost surprised by what he saw in front of him. There was a small female in a red and blue kimono holding a tray of food in her hands. Killua stood there staring right at her and examining her closely. Her hair was black and unusually long for someone of her height touching the floor and most likely dragging behind her when she walked. Her eyes were a sharp red color and seemed to stare into your soul. It probably allowed her to intimidate anyone she spoke to. Though he highly doubted that was the case with this girl.

"I see you are finally awake," her voice was flat not nervous like Killua had expected. Why was that?

She stared at him not faltering one bit.

"I guess you will be able to eat with your friend then..." she said simply her gaze not leaving Killua at all.

She turned with the food in her hand and began to walk down the hallway and paused for a brief moment looking back at Killua who was still standing there. He seemed like he was trying to process the words that the young female had said to him.

"Killua-kun" she spoke simply, "Gon is waiting for you. I would suggest you please wipe that half dazed look off your face and please follow me."

It wasn't till he heard the name Gon that Killua snapped out of his thought processes. He looked toward the girl who had already started once again walking down the hallway at a steady pace. He finally wasted no time trying to catch up to her.

"Wait" he said quickly, "How do you know my name and Gon's?"

She stopped again and her blank look changed slightly to a questioning look as if she were questioning his sanity.

"I see... I thought you were the intelligent one of the two but I believe now that neither of you contain the mental capability to understand the situation you are currently in" she said letting out a small sigh, "it seems I will have to explain myself more thoroughly than I had wanted."

Killua gave her a look of suspicion. He was half expecting her to drop the tray and attack him but she did no such thing. The short female just turned and once again began to walk. This time without having to be told he followed keeping his guard up. He was still unsure of his situation at the moment and this female was still just to suspicious. The two walked in silence down the hall way. Their foot steps echoing off its empty walls. Finally she stopped in front of a pair of large golden door. For a moment Killua was unsure if she would be able to manage to push them open. By what he could tell she was small and delicate. It looked as if she had never had to lift a finger in her life. Compared to the large doors she looked a lot weaker than he had originally thought. Though she held the tray in one hand and easily pushed it walking through the doors not even bothering to wait for him.

When Killua walked in there was a large table and it was large enough to fit hundreds of people, yet there were only three places set and one of them was already occupied and the other had a cup and a tea pot. He brightened seeing the other boy at the table already stuffing his face with what food was there. At least she wasn't lying about Gon. He watched he walk over to the table and place his food across from Gon before she sat down at the head of the table between them. It wasn't until she sat down where the cup and tea pot were and began to pour herself a cup that Gon noticed her and then followed her gaze to Killua. The spiky haired younger ginned wasting no time. He jumped across the table and went to meet Killua. The female seemed unphased by this action and just watched the boys as the interacted as she took a sip of her tear slowly.

"Killllluaaa! I'm so glad you're alright! I was so worried that you wouldn't wake up," Gon said.

Killua's eyes widened and he stared at Gon questionably, "What do you mean how long was I out?"

Before Gon could even answer the female spoke, "Two weeks and two days. It was quite unusual to say the least. Gon woke up three days after you two got here."

Killua stared at her. Two weeks and two days. That couldn't be right. He shouldn't have been asleep that long. If any thing he should have woken up before Gon.

"If you are looking for an explanation I would suggest you sit down and eat," she continued, "I will explain everything."

Killua hesitated. This was suspicious. It was very suspicious but what choice did he have. Gon had already began to make his way back to where he was sitting and Killua followed and sat where the female had set his food just moment earlier. He stared at the female and she stared back. For a brief moment their eyes met and when they did she spoke.

"You need to eat. While I am aware that someone of your family does not require food all the time. It is important that while you are here you regain what ever strength you have lost while being idle" she said simply.

He was slightly surprised by her words. She said 'of his family' meaning she knew of his background. Slowly he began to eat and once she realized he was not faking she began her explanation.

"Let me introduce myself now. My name is Yuu Mori," she began, "Right now the town you are in is called Fela. Here we worship a goddess by the same name. She is our goddess of luck. I am the head Priestess, and while we do not mind if outsiders come you have come at a particularly bad time"

"Bad time?" Gon asked staring at her, "I don't think I get what you are getting at."

"We are in, at the moment, the middle of a time of unrest," she began calmly, "because of my age there are those who believe I am unfit to be the priestess, though that is only half the issue."

This time it was Killua who interjected, "only half then what is the other half?"

"I have refused to perform this year's human sacrifice," she said rather calmly.

The two male's eyes widened when she said that. Human sacrifice? That was normally not uncommon among towns that were cut off from the world but this was the first time the two had been in a town where they actually performed it. As if sensing their surprised Yuu paused as if waiting for them to say something and when she got no words from them she spoke once again.

"I detested the idea of having to kill one of the towns people even if they think it is an honor," she said with clear distaste, "Though hearing my thoughts of this have not stopped people from trying to get it to continue on schedule. You see some have said that of it was an outsider then I would go through with it."

"So us being attacked in the forest that was your doing?" Killua said.

"Huh?" She sounded surprised, "I see you are still tired Killua. You don't seem to be thinking straight. Why would I attack you an then take care of you. Really that makes no sense."

"Well then if you didn't then who did," he asked.

"Well it wasn't me. Someone had brought you both to me. I had a few servants help me. Take care of you and once you didn't wake up after the first week I dismissed them and took care of you myself" she said.

Both boys stared at her for a while. What she was saying didn't seem to add up. Even if she was a priestess why would she take in outsiders so willingly. Their was clearly something she wasn't telling them but if she was lying to them she was doing a damn good job at doing it.

"Wait why would you dismiss them?" He asked.

"My my aren't you filled with obvious questions Killua-kun," she sighed, "it was obvious you had been given at least 10x a lethal dose of some kind of poison. Though thanks to your immune system you just ended up sleeping long... I believe someone wanted to kill you to use as this year sacrifice."

The conclusion had come out. While Killua had expected as much hearing it was still a surprise. Though it made sense. They get lost in the woods, are attacked by beasts, and then end up speaking to the highest power of the town who just happens to be a young girl. Everything was coming together.

"Then we should make out leave then," he said getting up.

"You can not leave" Yuu said simply.

"What?"

Both boys stared at the female. Her face was blank but her eyes showed clear worry and nervousness.

"Whatever had attacked you... It hasn't left. It's has surrounded the town. No one has been able to defeat it," she said.

"That's impossible stop lying we saw them," Killua said, "I SAW them get killed."

"Well they aren't dead either that or someone is making more of them," she said standing up sounding clearly annoyed either by Killua's unwillingness to believe here or maybe... it was something else that she was annoyed with.

The female paused realizing she had slightly lost her composure and cleared her throat before speaking again, "either way you can not leave here yet so while you are stuck here you are going to help me figure out who poisoned you and who is causing this chaos because I know better than to think that it is our goddess cursing me for not killing an innocent human being."

She pointed her finger at both Killua and Gon as she spoke. She turned and walked off through the doors without another word. After which the two males stared at her before staring at each other.

"Wait how does she know what attacked us," Gon asked.


So I'm going to end the first chapter at that. Hopefully you all enjoyed that. Yuu is a strange kind if character and I like her a lot though there are a lot of things about her that will be revealed soon. I look forward to any comments you may have on this chapter. So go ahead and review. Thanks for reading.
