This is my first time doing a HXH fanfic! Please bear with me! XD

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Hunter x Hunter. I only own the OC.

Enjoy!


It was a rainy night when I accidentally stumbled upon them. They were there the whole time watching me, especially those blue orbs staring suspiciously at me.

"What do you want?" I asked, glaring at the dark alley where they hide.

Both of them did not respond. They were just standing in the darkness staring at me. As a girl with short-temper, I shoved away the unconscious guy in my hand and began walking towards my observer. Passing by the other unconscious hoodlums on the ground that cornered me earlier, the brown-eyed person besides the blue-eyed followed my every step. Finally, I stopped right outside their territory. My messy long hair covered half of my face and my drenched clothes were fitting just right in my slim body. If anyone saw me, they would think that someone harassed me but because of the metal pipe I was holding over my shoulder and the beaten guys on the ground, they would think otherwise.

My bored golden brown eyes stared at their serious ones.

"If you have any business with me, better settle it down now. You know I'm a busy person." I smirked, but my eye twitched.

This time one of them laughed nervously.

"W-we thought that you needed help but looks like you don't need one." I'm sure that the brown-eyed said it. "I guess we should take our leave."

With that, both of them disappeared and I don't have any idea how (A/N I know you know).


"WELCOME!" she greeted the teens who came in, smiling from ear to ear. Her short red hair sways as she moves, her side bangs stayed in place as it was clipped with a bunny hairclip.

"It's you again." The silver haired guy deadpanned.

"Of course! Who else did you think it was going to be?" the girl smiled brightly at him.

"The old man." He answered.

"Oi! Killua! Look at these. It's the chocolate that you were looking for." a spiky haired teenager called while waving the box of chocolate.

Killua dashed his way to where his friend and immediately took the box from him.

"No kidding! This is really the amachoballs [1]! I've looked for it every store in the city but none of them had this!" he exclaimed, making a cat like face as his eyes sparkling in disbelief, at the same time excited.

"Well~ it was delivered this morning." The girl said, leaning on the counter.

"I'll buy all of the amachoballs that you have!" his eyes sparkled determinedly.

"Uhh- o-okay." She sweat drop.

The two guys left the store after buying all their stock of amachoballs and so she was alone again.

"You're just too sweet for my taste." She sighed and leaned her head on the counter as she watched the glass door of the store.

She recalled how excited her silver-haired crush when he found out about the chocolates; this made her smile like an idiot.

"I always enjoyed watching you, Killua. Gon is lucky to have you. I wish I was Gon." She giggled. Just kidding!

Later that night in a small apartment, in one particular room.

"So how are doing in your part-time job?" a dark haired woman asked, who was in her mid-40.

"Hmm, fine." The redhead answered as she fried the fish.

The woman sat down, leaned her elbow on the table and smirked.

"What kind of a reply is that?" she teased. "I know there's something more."

Even though the younger girl was facing her back from her, she can see her ears becoming red.

"Ohohoho~ that boy was there again, am I right?" she grinned, enjoying how her daughter gets all flustered over a crush.

"M-mom!" She shouted blushing.

Her mother laughed.

"Keep teasing me and you won't get any dinner tonight!" she threatened as she points her chopsticks to her mother.

"Hey! Not fair! I'm the mother here and you're just the daughter!" her mother complained.


After the customer left, she sighed and looked outside, left and right. She raised a brow and glanced at the time.

They should be here by now.

She's obviously waiting for Killua and Gon but the two were running late today. She knew what time they would show up in the store and to tell the truth, she had always been observing the two from the very start. Well, it was only Killua but since Gon and he were always together, so… you know!

There were also times like this when the two of them won't show up a day or two, sometimes even for a week. She sighed for the nth time that day.

What the heck are they doing? She closed her eyes. Now that I think about it, we are merely strangers. I only know their names and their face but other than that… She shut her eyes open upon some realization. Do they even know my name?! She started to count her fingers, droplets of water formed in the corner of her face. It's only been a month since I started working here and a month since I met them. But because of some circumstances, being a customer and an employee and barely hang out with each other, of course they won't know my name! I knew it! I should have worn that nameplate! But too bad, she already throw it away.

Moments with them started to flash in her head, where the two teens would walked in and buy sweets, chat with her while she wrapped their items, then leave after giving them what they came for. A shocked expression formed on her face. Every day was always like that.

We're not even close to friends! There's only a customer-employee relationship!

"And to think I started working here just to be with Killua." She mumbled. You sure are dumb! You should have just becomes friends with him directly! She face palmed.

"So this is where you hide." A deep voice interrupted her. "I never thought you'd find work over summer vacation. For a dumbass like you, this sure is a miracle."

She raised her head and looked up at the man standing before her. Her face became sour at the sight of him and her eyes sharpened. When did he get in?

"What a scary face. Is that how you treated your customers? No wonder there's hardly anyone here." He mocked showing his white teeth just to add the insults.

"Hey! Boss, watcha doin' here?" another guy came in.

She took a quick glance and looked back at the man in front of her. Then the man who just came in saw her and grinned evilly.

"Hey! Hijiri, long time no see!" he leaned over the counter and reached out a hand to her but with a quick reflex, she grabbed the man's wrist and bended it.

The man shrieked in pain. She looked back at the other guy. He was smirking and at the same time, he had this look of bloodlust. She knew what was coming next and she was exactly right. The moment she let go of the pained guy, the so-called boss immediately attacked her using only his bare fist. She dodged his attack but the poor counter didn't survived.

Upon hearing the noise that they made, the manager of the store entered the scene and to his surprised, the counter and his only employee were in BIG trouble.

She clicked her tongue at the mess she had started. One thing for sure to happen after this, she'll be kicked out of the store.

"Great." She muttered, avoiding the punch from her attacker. She heard her manager gasped in horror. There's no way I'm going to lose this job! She gritted her teeth and runs to the door.

Once she was outside, her eyes widen at the sight of a few men surrounding the place. I should have known. There's no way he'll be walking alone the city without his underlings.

She turned her head around and saw that they were chasing after her. She smiled sourly and focused her attention on the road.

Not long after the girl and the delinquents left, Gon and Killua finally arrived only to find the manager of their favorite candy store slumped on the ground.

Gon rushed to the manager's side while Killua scanned the place. Some of the stands and candies were scattered on the floor but what caught his attention was the broken counter in front of them. It was smashed into pieces.

"Hey, what happened here?" he asked, hands on his pocket.

That's when Gon realized that the place was a mess.

"A scary man came and broke this. I don't know what his reason to do this but maybe Sena might have said something to piss him off." The manager explained.

"Sena?" Gon repeated.

"Yeah. The cash registered girl."

"So where is she?" Killua asked.

"She ran off somewhere and then those guys chased after her. She might be in danger right now! Please! Save her!"

"Don't worry. We'll definitely get her back." Gon said as he smiled then became serious when he walked away.

"Can you tell where she is?" Killua asked as they stepped out of the store.

Gon closed his eyes and began to sniff. After a while, Gon dashed across the street towards the alley. Killua followed him.

"You're really a dog." He sweat drop.

Gon laughed in embarrassment.

It didn't take them long enough to finally caught up with Sena on a vacant area behind the tall buildings. They were about to jump in when the guys that surrounded Sena fell on the ground, at the same tim leaving Sena standing in the middle as she holds a long metal pipe over her shoulders. Her face was expressionless, eyes looking down on the unconscious body and giving off a scary vibe.

Killua and Gon looked at each other and then, slowly walked towards her. She glared at the two but soon smiled realizing that it was them.

"Gon! Killua!" she chirped happily running towards them.

"How the hell did you manage to win?" there was somehow amusement in Killua's voice as he scan the area with the sleeping (not dead yet) men.

"Uhh- hehe." She scratched her cheeks in embarrassment.

"But I'm glad that you're okay." Gon said with relief.

"Thanks for worrying." She grinned.

"Sena," Killua called out making the two give him their attention. "Are you a–" he paused, thinking over his doubts. There's no way she's a hunter.

"I'm a what?" she curiously asked.

"No, nothing." He said dismissing the thought from his head.

Sena raised her brows but then realized something more important.

"Ahhhhhhh!" she screamed pointing at Killua. "Y-you k-know my n-n-name!"

"Huh?" he raised a brow. "Yeah, so what?"

"The manager told us your name." Gon interjected. But she didn't heard him because her mind was already floating over the clouds.

As they were walking back to the store, Killua was in another deep thought and Gon notice this.

"What's wrong, Killua?" he asked stopping his feet.

"I've been wondering" Killua paused. "Sena, were you chased by some thugs one month ago at the alley behind Hotel XXX?"

Sena tried to recall if something like that had happened and froze when she did remember something.

"I think that was really you although you changed your hair style." Killua pointed out her hair.

She stared at Killua in shocked. "So you were both those guys back then?" she asked.

Flashbacks of the event that happened one month ago started to take over her mind. Killua was the owner of the blue orbs that she admired so much and the innocent brown-eyed stranger was Gon. Her eyes widen at the realization. Another memory popped out, she was standing under the rain glaring at the strangers not far from her. The darkness enveloped them but she could still see glimpse of their faces, their clothes and hair. But because at that time she didn't care who they were, it slipped out of her mind so easily.

"I thought I knew you the moment you started working at the candy store! And I was right!" Gon grinned at her.

She was a little bit embarrassed and gave them a half smile.

That wasn't a nice first meeting. She thought whilst watching both of them discussing about something else already. They were there the whole time watching over me. We were merely strangers yet we're like friends. Or is it just me? She looked up at the orange sky. Oh well, our story has only just began. There's still a lot of time for me to befriend them. Sigh. Urgh! My head suddenly hurts.

"Let's go back. I bet manager is furious right now." She interrupted and walks ahead of them.

"I think his more worried about you." Said Gon.

"Oh really? I think he would fire me." She countered.

"That's better than seeing you every day on that store." Killua commented.

"What?!" she was definitely shocked.

"You think I wouldn't notice how you look at me, huh?" this time he smirked.

"You knew?!" now she's even more shocked.

"Err, n-no it was a joke." Killua sweat drop.

"What?!" she yelled this time, face all flushed.

"So Sena likes Killua huh?" Gon smiled.

"N-nooooo!" she cried.


:: A flashback from one month ago ::

Sena was walking down the street when she noticed some old ladies gossiping at the same time looking at her.

"That's because her mother was a delinquent before. No wonder she became one." She heard one of the old hag said.

She glared at their direction and immediately they scrammed away. She clicked her tongue and continued walking. Not far away from her was a candy store. She saw girls her age coming out from the said store, merrily talking and laughing about something. She lowered her hat to cover her face when she passed by them and after that she looked up but bumped into someone. She slightly lost her balance due to the forced that the person who bumped her did. Luckily, he caught her.

"Sorry." She heard him said.

She raised her head to see her savior and was stunned to meet his beautiful sapphire eyes.

She thanked him and after that, he left with his friend. She was left standing there, still watching his back. Her face flushed and her hands were over her chest.

The next day and at the same time, she happened to meet them again on her way home. And on the next day, same thing happened and until the next, and the next, and the next…

"I'll be in your care from now on, manager!" Sena grinned with her new hairstyle and the candy store uniform.

***Extras***

This happened the night after Sena's first encounter with Gon and Killua.

"How many times did I tell you not to fight anymore? You should act more girly! How can you have girlfriends if you're like that! Mama is really disappointed!" Sena's mother angrily said smashing the table with her bare fist.

Sena looked at her mother lazily while treating her wounds.

"Tomorrow! Go find something to do that doesn't involve a fight! Or maybe you can start a part-time job at Kawahiro's candy store! Right! That's a good place to start! Lots of girls buy sweets there! This is your chance to be friendly with them! Blah blah blah blah…"

"Why don't you go since you're the one who's so hyped up and wanted to have female friends so much?" she said, her face obviously says she's not interested in any of that.

Her mother suddenly became quiet and it felt weird. She took a quick glance at her side and began sweating like a pig when she saw her mother giving her a death glare. Soon her mother jumped towards her and like a trapped animal, she screamed her lungs out.


And that ends here. It took longer than I thought. Sorry 'bout that!
