Hitomi's POV
She grinned at the silver haired boy in front of her.
"Nice skateboard," she said.
"Thanks," he grinned back, "Want me to teach you?" Before she could reply, a really fat guy in a blue shirt walked up to them with a super creepy smile.
"Hi!" he said, smiling at her, again, very creepily. "I'm Tonpa!"
"Tonpa-san!" Killua smiled broadly. "Can I get some more of that juice? I don't know why, but I'm super thirsty. Maybe nerves?"
"What's this about juice?" she said, glancing confusedly at Killua and Tonpa.
"Oh, Tonpa likes to give rookies some juice." Killua said, "So, Tonpa, about that juice, could I get some?"
Tonpa got a slightly stricken look on his face.
"O-Of course," he said, handing Killua and her each a can.
"Oh, by the way," Killua said, "I advise you don't drink that, Hitomi. It has some pretty strong laxatives."
Tonpa made a choking sound in his throat. "U-Um, I assure you, t-there is no l-laxatives in this juice."
"Okay, well I'll have some then!" Hitomi said.
"Really, Hitomi, I don't recommend it." Killua said, a little bit more insistent.
"Worried?" you smiled devilishly, "I'll be fine. I've trained. Poisons won't affect me."
With that, Killua and Hitomi walked away. They wandered around comfortably in silence, and she took a closer look at the boy next to you. His silver hair was tousled adorably. His body was all lean muscle and bone; there was no trace of fat anywhere. He had pale skin, prominent blue veins running underneath it, and icy periwinkle eyes, formidable and terrifying.
"Stop staring at me." Killua said with a quirked smile.
"U-Um I, I wasn't staring—"
"Oh please," Killua said, "Just like you, I've been trained." Before she could ask about what he meant, the door creaked open for only the two-hundredth time.
Man, they really need to get those doors fixed, she thought. A boy with spiky black hair who looked about Hitomi's and Killua's age, a blonde-haired boy who looked a couple years older than her, and a man with a briefcase who looked about in his late twenties or early thirties.
"Think we should say hi to him?" she mouthed to Killua, but before he could reply, one of the large walls at the end of the room lifted.
"I apologize for the wait," a man with a mustache said. Hitomi assumed he was the first phase examiner. "The entry period for Hunter applicants has ended. The Hunter Exam will now begin!"
She looked at Killua, excited, but he just looked bored.
"One final caution," the man spoke again. "If you are short on luck or ability, you could very well end up seriously injured or even dead. Those who accept the risks, please follow me. Otherwise, please exit via the elevator behind you."
No one moved.
"Very well. All 404 applicants will participate in Phase One."
With that, he strode into the tunnel, and Hitomi soon followed.
