You leaned against the wall and glanced around. Nobody looked too impressive, but then again looks can be deceiving. You were hoping to find a worthy opponent, someone to test your skills. This is boring, you thought to yourself, when will the exam start? Sighing, you pulled out your razor sharp iron fan and started swinging it around.
Stop that! , yelled some random guy that was standing near you. You could hurt someone!
And your point is? you replied, challenging him.
You brat! You- he started to say, but you slashed him on the chest before he could finish his sentence. He fell to the floor, clutching his rapidly bleeding wound.
I guess you were right. Someone did get hurt. you smirked at him and began to walk away.
That was unnecessary. you heard someone say.
Who said that? you asked.
I did. the voice came from a blond guy that walked to your victim. He was followed by two other guys, a kid holding a fishing pole, and an old guy carrying a briefcase. There was no reason to hurt him.
He started the whole thing! He deserved it. you replied, watching as the briefcase guy knelt beside your victim and started to tend to his wound.
The blond boy was about to say something, but the kid with the fishing pole spoke first.
My name s Gon. That s Kurapika and Leorio. he said pointing to his friends. What s your name?
Sonua.
That s a nice name. he said.
You stared at him. What a weird kid, you thought, he doesn t even care that I just wounded someone. At least he s nice, unlike that Kurapika guy.
Don t talk to her said Leorio, she might hurt you.
Shut up! I don t hurt people without a good reason. So, don t give me one. you glared at him. He looked scared and quickly went back to his doctoring.
Stop threatening people. said Kurapika, frowning at you.
Do you want to fight? You held up your fan.
Violence should only be used as a last resort. It would be a waste of time to fight.
Why am I not surprised that you said that? you asked, crossing your arms.
Gon spoke up. I think you re not surprised because-
Kurapika interrupted him. That was a rhetorical question, Gon.
What s that? Gon wondered.
It s a question that you re not supposed to answer. Kurapika informed him.
Know it all. you muttered.
He was about to reply but then the examiner spoke up.
Everyone follow me! He started to run.
Everyone ran after him. Including you. While running, you thought about the guys you met. Gon was friendly and nice. Leorio was okay, although you wondered how old he was. You decided that you didn t like Kurapika. He was a know-it-all and a pacifist. Nope, you didn t like him at all. Well, maybe a tiny bit.
