A few years had passed, Killua grew up and he turned 7 years old. So ever since he was 5, he was already trained on how to kill someone already. The way that they train him is for real, his father would take him into a place where his target was then his father watches him on how to kill his target. His family was proud of him for being a really great assassin; Illumi was the one who's mostly proud of him.

Killua and Illumi were siblings that were really close together. Illumi likes Killua a lot and he's been the brother he really liked the most than any of his siblings. Ever since Killua was born, he's already the one who he likes to take care of. Right now, they're still close, yet there's someone who's more close to Killua and that would be Killua's younger sister. Both of them play together always and Illumi had no time for Killua because he always had a mission. Whenever Killua asked Illumi to play with him, Illumi always refuses that's why everything has changed lately. But it's not really like Killua wanted to avoid Illumi, he understands the situation of his brother and he's hoping that both of them could still have a chance to hang out.

Illumi just came home and he's already back from his mission. Ever since two days passed, Killua's been finding Illumi so when one of the butlers told Killua that Illumi's back, he got excited then he ran outside to see his brother. Illumi saw Killua running towards him then he embraced him.

"Illu-nii!" Killua said.

"Killu, how are you? Did you miss me?" Illumi asked.

"So much! Hontou ni aitakute, Illu-nii..." Killua feels so glad that his older brother is back because he never got the chance to embrace him like this for so long. "Ne Illu-nii, do you still have a mission?" Killua looked up at Illumi.

"Well...yes," Illumi answered.

"Is that so?" Killua looked down with a disappointed look on his face. "Then, I would like to go with you."

"What?"

"I like to go with Illu-nii. I missed those times when both of us were hanging out together, so I wanted to go with you."

"Killu, my mission is dangerous...I would agree for you to come to prove yourself that you could handle it, but you should ask father."

Behind them, they heard footsteps and when they turned back, they saw Silva.

"I agree, Illumi had five targets and they're just in one group so I would agree for Killua to come." Silva explained.

"Really? Thanks dad!" Killua said with a face of excitement.

"Well, if that's what you want, let's go Killu."

Killua followed Illumi as both of them went to the airship to go to their targets' place. Illumi was controlling the airship and Killua was watching the view outside and he was amazed by it. It will reach a few minutes for them to arrive because they're just riding the airship so it'll just be fast.

When they arrived, Killua was the first one who got off and Illumi followed. Killua was really excited to kill their targets so Illumi led him to the place because he knows the location of their targets.

"Killu, when you're following or searching for the target, you should walk or run silently." Illumi said.

"Is that so?" Killua tried walking silently then he did it but he's walking too slow when he walks silently because he's not used to walk fast silently.

"Like this, you do it fast." Illumi demonstrated it to him and he walked faster silently.

Killua tried running silently without watching his steps then he was glad because when he tried it, he did it. He moved his feet without making a sound.

"Illu-nii, I did it!" Killua smiled.

"Great job, Killu." Illumi patted his head. "Let's go."

When both of them arrived to the place, they saw that the group of their targets where tall and strong. For Illumi, he could handle them and Killua could handle them too because he fought strong guys like those when he was at the Heavens Arena in the age of six but the problem is that they have their weapons and Killua wasn't yet trained into dodging just fighting.

"Killu, come here."

Illumi carried Killua using his back then Killua held Illumi tightly just for his safety. They're going to fight together and he wanted to carry Killua because Illumi moves so fast that Killua might not be able to catch up. So Illumi ran silently and hid somewhere safe. Killua was a bit nervous because he didn't know what to do when they'll get caught. Illumi could tell from his expression that his younger brother's nervous so he's trying his best to calm him down.

"Illu-nii, be careful okay?" Killua said.

"I will, we can do this. Just trust me, Killu."

Illumi released Killua then they went inside their targets' hideout together. They saw that their targets' were discussing about something. Illumi told Killua that they'll separate and Illumi will be the first to kill three targets and Killua will kill two targets. Illumi jumped from somewhere above then he threw his needles. Two of his targets got hit on the head then they became unconscious. Killua ran silently then he thrust one of his targets with his sharp nails. After that Killua killed just one target, someone suddenly grabbed him then his mouth was covered so that he won't be able to scream. Illumi saw that two of their targets escaped and one of them took Killua.

"Illu-nii!" Killua yelled as he uncovered the hands from his mouth.

"Shut up, kid."

"Your brother cannot save you anymore."

As the two men were running, they suddenly saw Illumi jumped in front of them.

"Let him go," Illumi said.

"Really?" The man took out his gun then he pointed it at Killua. "Then what if I kill this kid right now?"

"Let him go, don't make me repeat again or you will die."

The man tightened his grip on Killua's neck and he was pissed off.

"What if I won't?"

Illumi suddenly disappeared from their sights then he chopped off their heads. Killua was released then he coughed and panted. Illumi came to him just to see if his brother's alright.

"Killu, are you alright?" Illumi asked.

"Illu-nii!" Killua hugged Illumi then he sobbed. "I'm sorry...I'm sorry Illu-nii!"

"What's wrong, Killu?"

"I'm such a coward; I can't even escape from my target. I'm not good enough to be an assassin." Killua cried on his brother's shirt.

"That's not true. You did your best," Illumi stroked the hair of his brother. "You killed your target remember? Don't worry, you're already the greatest assassin for me."

"Really?"

"Yes, when you train some more you'll get even stronger than me, okay?"

"Okay, thanks Illu-nii." Killua wiped off his tears. "Illu-nii, can I ride on your back?"

"You must be tired Killu, come here." Illumi had let Killua climb on his back for him for ride on it.

Illumi walked along heading to the spot where the airship was bringing Killua with him. Killua was asleep on his back so when he got to the airship, he entered there then he placed Killua on the wide seat for him to lie down on it and to have some rest. This was his last mission for today so he should go home already and have some rest, at least he still have some time to probably do something in his house.

After a few minutes of travelling in the airship, they finally arrived home together. Killua was still tired so Illumi still carried him when they both went outside the airship then he walked inside the mansion and went inside Killua's own room then he placed him on his bed. As Silva walked inside Killua's room, he asked Illumi about Killua because he was worried for him if he could take another mission like that or not.

"Illumi, how's Killua?" Silva asked.

"He's fine, he's just tired." Illumi answered while he's looking at Killua.

"He's tired from killing his target? It must be hard for him. Then I will wait for him to her stronger until he could handle missions like that."

"No dad, he's totally fine; he killed two targets and I killed three because I wanted to see if he could really handle it. He's really a great assassin, you should give both of us missions like that again and if he could kill more targets than me, then he should be allowed to have a mission all alone by himself."

"Hmm...I guess you're right, train him some more Illumi."

"Yes, dad."

When Silva walked away and closed the door, Illumi saw Killua finally waking up. Killua rubbed his eyes then he sat up and stared at Illumi with his face still looking sleepy.

"Illu-nii," Killua said cutely. "Why did you lie to dad?"

"Eh?" Illumi was confused about what Killua said. "What do you mean, Killu?"

"Why did you tell dad that I made it successfully? You killed my other target for me, right? I only killed one, so why did you lie to him about it?" Killua looked down and looked up on his brother while he asked.

Illumi gave him a smile before he answered Killua's question then he walked closer to Killua then he patted his head.

"If I hadn't lied, dad will refuse your request for giving you a mission and if you want to come with me on my mission, the he might refuse. We can't let him know about it, okay?"

"Well even though you lied, thank you so much Illu-nii." Killua smiled. "You're the best brother ever." Killua hugged Illumi.

"Killu," Illumi wanted to ask him about something.

"Yeah?" Killua replied, still embracing Illumi.

"Nothing..." Illumi decided not to ask him about it because he's a bit embarrassed to ask him about it.

"I love you, Illu-nii." Killua said.

Illumi's eyes widened hearing what Killua said to him. It was the first time he heard those words from Killua. Well, they're siblings so there's nothing wrong if one of them says it. That was what Illumi wanted to say a while ago but Killua probably guessed what he wanted to ask so Killua just said it.

"I love you too, Killu." Illumi said as he hugged Killua tighter.
