-KILLUA-

Somebody's still following me… But I still don't sense anything out of place.. Am I just imagining this? Being too paranoid? No, I don't think so. I survived all this time relying on my intuition. I still can't get this nagging feeling out of my system.. Someone's following me..

Though I'm still far from losing my habit of fleeing in the face of the unknown, I can proudly say there's improvement.. Besides, this someone or something is not the kind of being I can flee from. Though it's wrong to assessed the other party's skill even before the battle start, I'll say the person following me is very skillful.. Probably on par with me or more, and that possibility gave me the urge to run..

But even facing this predicament, I still can't help but think about Gon… This is the kind of situation where Gon will be beside himself out of excitement and anticipation of facing the unknown. While on the other hand, I'll be beside myself over thinking the situation.. We're polar opposites.. Gon and I.. And even now, I still couldn't fully comprehend why we got along so well.. WE have nothing in common except our age.

But I guess those kinds of things are matter of compatibility. He always filled those places that I lacked.. My emotions, my purpose in life, my lack of interest and more. I want to stay by his side and just like old times, experienced many things with him. I need the comfort of being able to stay by his side. Gon, where are you now?

After all these months of seriously putting effort to find you, I already want to give up because of the lack of positive results. I don't feel any progressed at all. Its like you don't want to be found. Just the very thought of that possibility repulsed me. I'm not a very optimistic person like you who strived until the very end just to find Ging Freecs, despite the fact that he doesn't want to see you. Once again, that made me realized how much difference do we have and why do you let me stay by your side. Gon, I'm not like you. Therefore I know that I need to walk different path from you.. But despite knowing that, I still want to stay by your side. Back then and even now.

I've been walking the streets of Yorknew CIty for quite some time now, but I still don't sense anything out of place. What is that person's objective? I don't sense any malicious intent so maybe I'm not yet in danger of being killed via ambushed or trap.. He's just following me. A stalker? Huh, maybe.. I'll just hit one of the bars and picked somebody for a companion through the night.. I don't know about Gon, but I'm still far from turning into a saint. I still gamble, I even try a drink or two occasionally and I even pick some girls or guys occasionally but never dated seriously. Especially some guys who resemble Gon even for a bit. His dark and spiky hair, his dark brown eyes that greatly resembled the chocolates I love the most.

As I entered one of the high class bars in some Yorknew City's big hotels that is owned by some mafia Don, the nagging feeling is getting stronger. As if its warning me to stay away from this place. Bingo! What a laugh, if the person following me is getting a agitated when I enter this place, ofcourse I would want to enter this place even more.

Sitting in front of the bartender "One black Russian for me please, and keep the change." I said while holding a thick wad of bills. "Right away sir." Maybe the bartender want to say something more about my obvious age but decide against saying anything since I looked like one of those people who frequent this place. Formal clothes, affinity for cocktails and generous tip.

It didn't take long for me to be surrounded by people. Mostly older women, like a daughter or a wife of some mafia Don. Giving subtle hints of picking me up for the night. But not yet. Almost there, the nagging feeling is getting worse by the minute. In fact I'm almost sensing some malicious killing intent. But still skillful enough so that I wouldn't be able to point out that person's location. But he's definitely nearby. I don't know what triggers this, but without doing anything unnatural that person is reacting.. But crap, I'm getting lightheaded I might have drink more than I'm supposed to if I want to stay alert. This fatal mistake may get me killed but I have the urged of intoxicating myself. Even for a while, I want to take Gon out of my mind.

-GON-

Congratulations for turning into a total stalker. Yes I've been following Killua for a few days now but I still have no idea how to face him.. In fact, the more I observed him, the more I'm getting the cold feet. Seeing his life made me feel like he doesn't need me anymore. At this rate, it seems like my courage only amounts to facing the Chimera Ant King with the odds against me, than facing Killua right now.

I want to stay by his side. Even now more than before, I want to be with him. I need him above anything or anybody else in the world. I want him to know that I can't survived without him.. All this time, I'm grateful. I'm only alive because of Killua. He's my lifeline. And I've lost count how many times did he save this sorry person that I am.

Always the stupid one. I couldn't even think like an average person and I have to rely on Killua for all the thinking.. Then my recklessness that put everybody around me in danger. My body always leap before I could even think. Where Killua is the calmer one. He will assessed the situation before making any reckless moves. I also lost count how many times his calmness in judging the situation saved me from unnecessary troubles.

And also, above anything in the world, I need his presence. I could only do my best when Killua is beside me. He always provide the support that I need. After all these time, the time I spend away from him only made my feelings stronger. I need to be with him.

Its been a few days now… Its my breaking point. Whether I'll face him now or fled for life… The latter is the easiest, but that's out of the question. I can't live without Killua, literally. Killua is a part of me. Without him, there would be nothing left but void emptiness inside me.

When Killua entered a high class bar, I feel annoyed for lots of reason.. Killua is drinking, he's still under age..! And he's even flirting with girls..! I can see it from the other building where I am currently located. The bar is on the 4th floor of the hotel, the interior is surrounded by bulletproof glass. It annoys me so much, my killing intent slipped and I clearly saw Killua turned his head on my direction. He's really sharp. I had to hide myself in a hurry. But for a thousandth time, I asked myself… Why am I hiding?

I sighed.. I just have to grit my teeth and show myself in front of him. How hard can that be?! Just as I was planning to wait for Killua to get out, I felt a multiple killing intent on a different directions.. Probably some nen users, but their setzu is not even nearly enough for me or Killua not to notice. The killing intents are directed to Killua.

Their aura are not that strong but there are atleast half a dozen of them. Killua immediately left the bar. He went to a more isolated alley. The whole time I've been following him, leaping from building to building. So are the nen users pursuing him. If I saw Killua even on a slightest danger, I'll kill them.

Killua stopped. "What do you want from me?" as he said that, he let out his powerful aura to intimidate his opponents. It's a lot more stronger than I remember. As I thought, Killua must've trained like crazy too these past 3 years. At this moment, I overcome my fears of facing him. Because above anything, I want nothing more than stay and fight by Killua's side..

-KILLUA-

These people, following me are not with the skilled person following me for the past few days. Even I can tell that much. For one, they're not nearly strong enough. Another one is that they're careless in concealing themselves or maybe not careless but not skillful enough. I can probably take them down."What do you want from me?"

Two, four, seven nen users showed themselves in a moment. All men on their mid thirties. Wearing civilian clothes so its practically impossible to know their objectives based on their clothes alone. "We came for the bounty of your head, young Zoldyck.. Heck, even a fucking picture of you and your family cost hundreds of millions each member." Said the man on Killua's right side..

Hah, I should've known. Zoldyck, eh? Even though its already been 4 years since I retired there are still people who can tracked me down even though my family are taking extra measures to cover our tracks. Well, I could probably guess that the reason is because these last 6 months I've been actively bugging the Hunter's Association's Headquarter. Not to mention, posting on the Hunter Association's bulletin boards. Ah, its all Gon's fault..! I've been practically announcing my whereabouts, even less than average skilled hunter like these people in front of me can find my whereabouts if they tried hard enough.. I should count myself lucky that only these handful of people came and not a battalions. I guess people are still intimidated by hearing the name Zoldyck.

"We are professional Blacklist Hunter. Before handing you over to the government, we would use any methods to make you spit the other Zoldyck's locations.." The man in front of me said. But this is getting boring. Torture huh? So classic and old-fashioned. These bunch of losers must've thought I'm an easy picking since I'm still in my teens. These hunters are underestimating the Zoldyck's too much.

They started to gather aura. It looks like they planned to attack at the same time.. Good tactics, because one on one I could take them all down with my eyes close and without using nen. It took time for them to gather aura, before they could even move from where they stand, I jumped and used Kanmuru. Electrocuting every one of them. But then suddenly smoke cans are suddenly thrown in my directions. Not just one or two but atleast dozens of them!

I felt lightheaded and nausea crept into my throat. I was about to use my Denkosekka(Godspeed) to get out of the smoke and out of this place. But I realized I'm paralyzed on the spot. This is no normal sleeping gas or paralyzing gas. Those gasses should've no effect on me whatsoever 'cause I'm immune to poisons. What is this smoke? I slowly sink into the ground. My body can't move but my mind is still clear. I can hear a single footsteps getting closer. Also a strong aura that couldn't even be compared to those weaklings.

Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. I've been careless. Those weaklings are decoys..! This one is the leader. But I'm sure he's not the one following me for a while either. A man on his late forties, large built and wearing military type clothes emerged from the smoke. Changing his aura into wind, therefore the smoke wouldn't even come a meter close on him. "Killua Zoldyck, eh? I spend a lot just to set a trap for you. Normal people would be in coma or dead by now in this huge amount of paralyzing smoke. These gas canisters are especially ordered overseas and not meant for humans. They're used to paralyzed mystical beast. I heard a rumor before that Zoldyck's are immune to poisons. I didn't believe them at first, but I'm glad I took some extra precautions." The man said casually.I decided to keep my silence, I have to come up with a plan instead of listening to this arrogant man's rantings. I have to think about my next move when I recovered from the paralysis cause by this gas. If only I'm not being careless, even this guy is no match for me.

He suddenly pulled my head upwards and I glared. "Are you listening to me you fucking impudent brat..?! I'm going to earn billions just by turning you over to the government. Your whole family's next.. So don't you dare give me that look..!" He lost his temper and punch my gut. It hurts a bit but my pain tolerance is incomparable. This is nothing. Though I'm slowly losing my consciousness.

I'm resigned to be at this crazy old man's mercy until I can finally move my body, when I felt a familiar aura. So strong, more intimidating than I showed earlier and the killing intent is so powerful that I almost got the urge to flee. Except I know that aura. Its his. I know so.. Am I dreaming? Or wait, did I die? How can he be here? Gon..

My assailant panicked so much he dropped me in surprised. He became alert, but sweat is dripping all over him. He's shaking. This murderous intent is clearly directed to him. I couldn't see clearly because of my fading consciousness and the smoke. But I saw Gon grabbing the man in the neck with one hand. Choking him, mouth foaming, face turning blue to purple. Then letting the unconscious man fall on the ground like a rag doll. Lifeless. Did Gon killed him? It can't be. I'm just imagining this.

"Killua, are you okay Killua? Hey..!" Gon called over and over but I can't hold on anymore.. The last thing I remember is Gon's face amidst the darkness..

DISCLAIMERS:

I don't own HunterXHunter. Thanks for reading. If I get more reviews claiming they're still reading, I'll keep writing. If not I'll kill both Gon and Killua on the next chapter. Haha, just kidding^_^ I know its somewhat turning into requiem, next chapter I'll make it less melancholic. Really though, I'm more surprised how many people read "I'm Not Naïve Killua". Really, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Also this is not yet edited by Luffyftw, but she will eventually^_^ I need her infinite wisdom and skills.. Language barrier sure is tough to break. But I'll keep studying. I'm supposed to upload this chapter last week but it somehow slipped out of my mind. What with me being obsessed in reading the whole novel of Legend of the Legendary Heroes…!

Did anybody watch Hunter X Hunter episode 131?! Epic right?!
