Disclaimer: I do not own anything from Love Hina, but I lay claim to Gunnar, the now late Manny, Joey, and Aoki (Who will appear later on in the story).
Gunnar and Naru had spent the following weeks together and growning very close. After the assistant manager explained everything in his past about him being a contract killer, they were all a little hesitant to allow him to stay, but with a little 'gentle' persuasion from Naru, everyone gave him him a second chance. Although in the back of Gunnar's mind, he had a nagging feeling that something else was going to pop out of the blue towards him, but he didn't know what.
"Hey Gunnar can you hand me that eraser?" Asked Keitaro as he was working on a math problem from one of his test prep books.
"Sure man...well it looks like you actually got them all right and you reduced everything to the lowest common value. Very good Keitaro, seems like you'll pass that Toudai exam this time eh?" Said Gunnar as he congradulated his friend.
"Yeah with Mutsumi's and Naru's help I'll be ready."
"Well man I'm gonna go..why are you looking in my wallet?" Said Gunnar dryly as he saw Sarah looking at the pictures in his wallet.
"Because I felt like it and who's this bimbo next to you in this picture and who's the brat." Said Sarah as she took out a picture of a younger Gunnar in a pitch black suit holding a small light brown child wrapped in a light yellow blanket standing next to a teenage gril with Motoko's body typewith gray eyes and reddish brown hair with dressed in a light gray dress.
"Nobody you should be concerned about!" Snapped Gunnar as he snatched the wallet and picture away from Sarah and stormed off.
"Geez, sorry I asked."
"What's wrong with him?" Asked a shocked Keitaro.
"The hell should I know?"
Gunnar was now sitting down on the steps of the Hinata while looking at the picture which Sarah had signaled out. A look of longing crossed Gunnar's features as he traced his index finger along the baby in the picture before he tore the picture in half and tossed away the portion with the girl on it. Tucking the picture away in his pocket, Gunnar got up and started to take a walk to clear his mind. As soon as Gunnar had left the inn, a short wrinkled woman wearing a light purple kimono and silver hair placed into a bun got out of a cab which stopped right at the steps of the Hinata. After the woman had exited the cab, a small light brown boy wearing a pair of blue shorts, a bright yellow t-shirt, and black tennis shoes with messy dark brown hair, and light gray eyes stepped out of the cab after her. Once the cabbie removed all the luggage from the back he helped the two up to the Hinata and recieved his fare and left. The old woman and the child walked around in the foyer of the inn, Suu came in with Kitsune who's eyes lit up as the recognized the old woman.
"Granny Hina!"
"Hooray Granny's here!"
"Hello there children, well how have my grandson and his friend been doing?"
"Well as you can see the place is still standing."
"Yep-yep, Keitaro and Gun-Gun are really cool. Hey who's the shrimp?" Asked Suu as the boy hid behind Granny Hina.
"Come now child don't be shy, they're friends of your father." Said Granny Hina.
"We're friends of his father?" Asked Suu.
"We know this kids dad?" Said Kitsune.
"Yes, his father is Gunnar." Answered Granny Hina as the boy stepped from behind her.
"Gunnar has a kid already, boy is Naru gonna be fired up once she hears this." Said Suu.
"So what's your name kiddo?" Said Kitsune as she kneeled down to eye level with the kid.
"Joey." Said the boy.
"That's a nice name, how old are you?"
"This much." Said Joey as he held out four fingers.
"So that must mean Gun-Gun had to have been at least fifteen when he had him right Kitsune?" Said Suu.
"Yep, but the main question is why Gunnar wouldn't want for us to know he had a kid?"
"Maybe the same reason why he didn't tell us he was a hitman?"
"That has to be it."
"It is?"
"For being the resident genius you're really dense."
"Hey!"
"Calm down now children, now won't you two help me and Joey to a room now won't you?" Said Granny Hina.
"Alright."
"Hey has anyone seen..Granny!" Said Naru happily as she walked in on the group.
"Hello Narusegawa, it is good to see you again." Smiled Granny Hina.
"It is but who's the kid?"
"That's GUMUMPH!" Exclaimed Suu as her mouth was stuffed with Kitsune's house slipper.
"He's one of those orphan children that you see on those Christian Children Fund commercials." Lied Kitsune as she dragged Suu away while Granny Hina followed them.
"Well that was odd, so what's your name?" Asked Naru.
"Joey." Said Joey.
"My name is Naru, and its nice to meet you Joey."
"You're nice."
"Well you're a little cutie you know that." Smiled Naru as she lifted up Joey and began to tickle him.
"Hey that tickles."
"Why don't you come with me and we'll get something to eat?"
"Okay."
Later on that night, everyone minus Gunnar were sitting at the dining table eating dinner.
"So Joey is the food good?" Asked Naru as the boy only nodded vigorously.
"Where's Smith at, he's been gone all day?" Asked Motoko.
"I don't know but he snapped at Sarah earlier when she was looking through his wallet." Said Keitaro.
"He did?" Said Shinobu.
"Yeah, the dork got his draws in a bunch when I took out some picture of him holding a baby while some skanky looking girl was standing next to him." Said Sarah.
"It could've probably been a picture of him, his child, and his mistress." Said Mutsumi as Kitsune, Suu, and Granny Hina all fell over in shock.
"Like Gunnar would have the stones to get a girl pregnant."
"You have no idea." Muttered Kitsune.
"What was that?" Asked Shinobu.
"Oh nothing at all really, just wait till Gunnar gets back and you'll see."
"Kitsune what is it that you're not telling us?" Asked Keitaro.
"Oh come on what could I know?"
"Yo I hope you guys saved some food for...me." Said Gunnar as he walked into the dining room and his eyes locked onto to Joey.
"DADDY!" Yelled Joey as he ran over to Gunnar.
"Hey there Jo, how have you been?" Smiled Gunnar as he lifted Joey into the air and spun him around.
"Fine. I missed you Daddy."
"I missed you also, I'm sorry I couldn't come and see you as often as I wanted."
"Gunnar why did that child call you Daddy?" Asked Motoko.
"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out Motoko, he's my son."
"That means that brat you were holding in that picture was Joey but who was the slut?" Said Sarah.
"First off Joey isn't a brat and secondly you can insult that bitch from the picture all you want."
"Gunnar explain everything NOW!" Seethed Naru.
"Calm down Naru-sempai I'm sure Gunnar had a good explanation why he has a child already." Said Shinobu as she, Suu, and Mutsumi held her back.
"For his sakes it had better be."
"Ya know it's been a long time since I saw my kid and we have alot of father-son bonding to do." Said Gunnar as he started to back away slowly.
"Take one more step and you will never have anymore children." Said Motoko as she held her sword's blade in between Gunnar's legs.
"Point well taken."
"Start talking."
"Alright, well it all happened back around when I first started out as a hitman, I was working for this guy named Hoshi and I was getting paid well. So one day I was announcing that I was quitting and it seemed like Hoshi didn't want for his number one killer to go so easily so he threw me a party."
"A party, of all the things he could've done he threw you a party?" Said Sarah skeptically.
"Shut up, anyways the bastard introduced me to his daughter Aoki, or as Sarah likes to call her Slut. After he introduced us the drinks started flowing and lo and behold I got tanked off my ass and the next morning I found myself buck naked with Aoki next to me while Hoshi and a few of the other guys were standing at the door laughing. Thinking it was all a big prank I left and a month later while living a normal life I get a call from Hoshi to meet him for just a friendly talk so I agreed. That's when he told me about Aoki being pregnant and that if I didn't come back to work for him then he'd have Aoki get an abortion, killing the unborn child."
"Whoah so what did you do Gun-Gun?" Interrupted Suu.
"As you can see Suu the kid is now hanging off of his neck for dear life." Pointed out Keitaro dryly.
"Oh yeah."
"As I was saying, I went back to being a hitman and racking up more kills than a Rambo movie when Joey was born. I was estatic as hell to see him but Aoki and Hoshi didn't share my view. To Hoshi, Joey was nothing but a bargining chip to get me to do whatever he wanted and Aoki just saw him as a hinderance. After Joey turned two, I faked our deaths perfectly and we left the country and moved in back with my folks in America." Continued Gunnar.
"Wait a minute if your parents were living in America then where were you staying out here?" Asked Sarah.
"Remember Seta's my cousin and the nutcase didn't live in that van of his until he was twenty-two."
"Guess I forgot."
"Moron."
"Quite you."
"So Naru are you going to try and send Gunnar into orbit now?"
"Only if he has anymore kids and ex's waiting in the wing." Said Naru.
"I have no more, this one the only one."
"For the time being." Smirked Granny Hina.
"What?"
"Auu you don't mean that Naru-sempai is pregnant now?" Said Shinobu.
"She isn't pregnant Shinobu, if she was she'd look like a hippo with a gland problem." Said Gunnar as Naru started to growl with anger, again.
"Hey Gunnar can I hold Joey?" Asked Mutsumi.
"Sure." Said Gunnar as he handed Joey over to Mutsumi.
"Joey I want you to listen carefully never put your foot in your mouth like your daddy or else this'll happen, alright?" Explained Mutsumi as Naru hit Gunnar through the walls.
"Wow...Naru-Mama hits hard." Said Joey in awe.
