Hey I'm back with the chap! Just mentioning, I have another story out called The Unexpected. I release a chap on that every one or two fridays.
To neko-chan... Shirru is 154cm,(Same as Gon. Killua is 158cm). Yes, Shirru has learned nen. Yea, Killua will realize his feelings... sooner or later *whistles*. Can Hiro turn into a human? Let's find out... (I was planning to save it for later, but your review just made my soul do it.) You should totally write your fanfic, I was nervous too so I asked someone I looked up to, it took he/she a few years until she got the courage to post. That gave me the courage to post, so here I am.
I DON'T OWN HXH!
Previously...
The old man was talking to Menchi, then Menchi pointed to me. The old man turned to face me, but when he saw me, suprise was etched on his face. "Yo, Oji-chan!" I shouted, suprising the whole group, cause I heard a,"WHAAATTTT?"
-
When the short speech about Netero being the chairman ended I walked away, with Hiro sitting ontop of my head. Someone grabbed my wrist. I glanced at the person. Killua, Gon right beside him. "What?" I asked. "We need to talk," Killua said roughly. He dragged me to a corner of the ship, Gon following. He told me to sit, I did.
-
I looked at Gon, "It's nothing you need to be bothered with, it's something personal. Family type personal." "You can still tell us!" Gon said. "No. If I do then you'll most likely help me out, which will slow down your goal of finding your dad." I said as I stood walking away. "We're not friends anymore then!" Killua shouted from behind me. I waved to them, my back still facing them. "Sayonara!" I told them. Something in my heart felt broken, but I brushed it off.
Onto the story!
Shirru's P.O.V.
'Maybe I should have told them about Sou-nii and the treasure.' I thought, guilt banging along with my heart. I sighed softly and went into the room that the old man gave me. 'At least I can think in peace...'
I sat on the plain, white, bed. I looked around the room, looking in case there was a bug in it. I didn't want to be somewhere that is bugged. I glanced at the cream walls, then carefully at the white-turned-gray floor, I looked under the wooden table and its two seats. I opened the door to the bathroom and only saw a bath, shower, sink, toilet, some cabinets, and a trashcan. I looked in the cabinets and saw soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, extra toilet paper, a towel, a small side bag, and extra clothes. Deeming the bathroom safe, I walked back into the bedroom. Then I saw the mini-fridge, it was already open. Hiro was digging inside of it.
I fought the urge to face-palm or sweatdrop. I walked over to the fridge and grabbed Hiro. "Seriously! You just ate about three hours ago, and you're hungry? Again?" I scolded. 'Put me down...' Hiro said. I did so and searched the fridge for a small smack, and I found some strawberries, I placed them on the table and went into the bathroom once more.
I took off my clothing and grabbed the peppermint shampoo and conditioner. I filled the bath with warm water, tied my hair into a bun, and bathed. Once I was done with that, I stepped into the shower, its water already warm and ready, and showered. I dried myself with the white towel, and put on the extra clothes. A blue, off-shoulder t-shirt with a black tank under, black short-shorts, a brown belt, knee-length white socks, black short finger-less gloves, blue converses, and a light pink, button-up, knee-length, sweater. I opened the door of the bathroom, taking my katanas and daggers with me.
"Something sweet..." I mumbled. "I already got it from the cafeteria, its on the table, I sugared the strawberries for you," Hiro said.
I plopped down onto the closest cushioned wood chair. "Letting loose already, Hiro?" I asked him, the chocolate petit four in my mouth. "Yeah, it's tiresome to be in that fox-form for a long time you know." he said from the seat across from me, he took a strawberry from it's plate and popped it into his mouth. "I really didn't want you to turn back into human form until the third phase." I shrugged my shoulders. "Oh well, doesn't really matter anyway."
I glanced at Hiro, since it's been a long time since I saw him as a human.
He had ice blue, shaggy, shoulder hair. His deep red eyes contrasted against his pale complexion. He had baggy jeans on, along with a black t-shirt and a gold cuff bracelet, along with two hair ties. His toe-nails and finger-nails were sharp, he hates wearing shoes unless he HAS to. He was still skinny and a bit muscular, a bit taller than me too, about 156cm. A mere two centimeters, a mere TWO centimeters.
Hiro's P.O.V.
I was watching Shirru stare at me, still staring ... and now she's glaring. I smiled and got out of the chair. I got behind her and started to dry her hair using the towel that was placed on her shoulders. She flinched at the touch, "Scared?" I teased. "Of course not!" Shirru retorted. I finished drying her hair and tied it up into a high pony-tail. I grabbed the last strawberry and popped it into my mouth, "Hey! I wanted to eat that!" Shirru whined. I smirked, "We don't need you to get fat here, so I was doing you a favor. Anyway let's practice our fighting."
I carefully took the two swords and the six daggers and walked out of the room and headed to the one of the empty rooms of the air-ship, Shirru was following right behind me.
Killua's P.O.V.
I just finished telling Gon about me and my family being an assassin, and he isn't bothered by it. All of a sudden, I felt murderous intent near-by. I quickly turned to the source but it disappeared as soon as it came. The old man, Netero, walked out of a corner in the opposite direction. "Che, you're fast for an old man,'' I muttered. "What do you mean? I barely even moved," the old man said. I glared, "What? Too bored of watching examinees?" Netero blinked and said, "Don't be so cold, I only wanted to find someone to play with. It gets boring you know,"
I inwardly rolled my eyes and turned around, grabbing Gon's wrist. "Let's go, Gon, Shirru-" I cut myself off. I was used to Shirru being here, so I said it without thinking.
"Hey, I know where Shirru is. Follow me and I'll lead you both to her," the old man offered. "Honto? Really? You know where Shirru is?" Gon asked, and did I sense some happiness? "I do." the old man confirmed. "Just follow me."
"Killua, can we please go?" Gon asked, his special ability showing. Puppy. Eyes. "Pleeeaassse?" I gave in, "Fine..." Gon sparkled, it was like an orchestra was playing music right behind him. He dragged me towards Netero and we walked to where Shirru was.
Shirru's P.O.V.
I walked into the large room and took off my shoes and sweater. I placed them beside the wall and walked to the middle of the floor. The wooden floor was cool and smooth, it felt nice against my bare feet. When I was standing in front of Hiro, he reached into his pocket and tossed something at me. I caught it and put it on, it was an eye patch. After putting it on I gently took one of my katanas, the white one, attached the sheath to my belt, and got the sword in ready position.
Hiro tossed three daggers at my face, aiming at my eye. I calmly but swiftly caught them and attached them to the straps on my thighs. "Ready?" Hiro asked me. "No. I'm about to buy some yellow elephants from a hunter making nachos," I said sarcastically. Used to my comments, he started running towards me.
He started with a punch to the face, it was pretty fast, but not fast enough. I caught the punch and quickly kicked behind his knees, my sword already sheathed. I twisted his arm and threw him to the wall, but he recovered and landed on his feet five meters from the wall. "75% E," he said. "50% E," I smirked at his annoyed look. "Show-off..." he muttered.
He charged once again, unsheathing the katana. He aimed the katana for my stomach, I blocked the sword with my current sword. We clashed and fought to see who was stronger, we soon reached the point of having to use the daggers along with the katanas. 'Ouch.' I grimaced, Hiro accidentally cut me a bit too deep with the dagger. Hiro and I were cut, our clothes were bloody, and Hiro was sweating. "How long has it been?" Hiro asked me breathless and panting, his hair was plastered to his skin, he took off his shirt a while ago.
"Four hours, it's already two in the morning. We should stop, and you need to work out more. You are already sweating buckets!" I exclaimed, then thought aloud. "Hmm, maybe that's what you get for lazing around while the old man was teaching me." We dropped the weapons and lied on the floor, I covered my eyes from the bright lights that were hanging from the ceiling. We both were quiet, Hiro's ragged breath and my soft breathing is all that you could hear.
'Someone has been watching us since about three hours ago. I can hear their breathing, one of them is the old man, the other two of the three are Gon and Killua.' I thought to myself. I put up a barrier so that no one could pry into my thoughts.
Gon's P.O.V.
'Who is that guy next to Shirru?' I asked myself. Something pryed into my thoughts. 'It's me Gon.' 'Hiro?' 'Yes.'
'Sorry about before, but it really is personal, and it really would get in your way. She didn't use you, she actually trusted you both. Anyway, I found out about Shirru's feelings for Killua.' Hiro said. I inwardly smiled, I knew that I shouldn't tell this to Killua, even though he's so mad. 'I knew that she didn't betray us, I trust you both already. Anyway, how does she feel?'
'She loves him alright, but she straight out refuses it. It'll be hard. We need to make her embrace her feelings, and we need to make that knuckle-head, Killua, realize them.' I looked over at Hiro, he was smirking, his deep pools of red sparkling with mischief. His eyes were adverted, like he didn't know that we were there. 'How can you be a human and a fox at the same time?' I asked him. 'Half-demon.' he replied simply.
Unknown's P.O.V.
Meanwhile, close to the 4th largest building in the world, Heavens Arena, stood a young man with long blonde hair, bangs that got in his face, pale skin, and deep purple eyes. The unknown man was staring at the tower, he slowly averted his gaze and walked away, thinking with a smile, but his eyes were sad. The man was sixteen years old.
Hey peeps! Does that answer your good question, neko-chan? I was actually fixing for Hiro to reveal that he was half-demon in the tower phase. He would fight for Shirru instead of she fighting herself. I'm not implying that she would drop down with the crew, maybe she will, maybe she won't. We never know.
Will Shirru mend her broken relationship with Killua? If she did, then would that mean giving up on looking for the treasure her brother left for her? Does that mean that she will never see her brother again? Who was that sixteen year old? I'm pretty sure that you know though, I gave off enough hints.
See you next chap! FUYU OUT!
