Chapter 16: RazorXSmart MouthedXRope Fight

As soon as Killua had finished eating, they picked up their trays and headed out from under the bleachers, tossing out what they didn't finish and leaving the trays on top of the trashcan to take back after gym. The two went to sit on the bleachers and wait for the rest of the class to show up when they noticed their teacher, a large bulky man named Razor, walking out of his office in the corner of the gym.

"I thought I told you two to stop eating in my gym," he chastised them, crossing his arms over his chest as he walked up to the pair.

"You did indeed, sir," Killua replied, and Gon covered his face with his hands as he waited for the turn of phrase his friend would inevitably throw out. "Which is why we decided to eat in the school gym, and not your gym."

Razor glared down at the smiling silver-haired teen, before a smile broke out on his face. "Very funny, kid. I like a sense of humor," Razor told him, before leaning down to get at eye level with Killua, "but next time I catch you both in here with trays I'm giving you F's."

Killua crossed one leg over the other while resting his elbow on the top leg and leaning forward to rest his chin in his good hand, sporting a rather sly smile. "I'll be sure to eat off of the floor from now on, sir."

"Let's put it another way then. Next time I see you both in here before the rest of the class, you're getting F's," Razor tried again.

"Well that changes everything," Killua retorted, and Razor smiled in victory. "I'll be sure to be late from now on. When my attendance looks terrible because of that I'll tell the principal you told me to be late everyday."

"If only you had those smarts in your head instead of in your mouth," the bulky man said as he walked away. That wiped the smile off Killua's face promptly.

Gon finally uncovered his face and looked up to see it was over. He looked at the large double doors and saw other students coming in and going to the locker rooms to change their clothes for class.

"I'll never understand why you have to challenge every adult you come across," Gon said, unzipping his green jacket and pulling it off to toss over his shoulder.

"He started it," Killua retorted childishly, pulling his V-neck shirt over his head and dropping it on top of the other's jacket. He did the same with his turtleneck.

Gon sighed and got up to start his laps that Razor made the class do at the beginning of gym. Killua quickly caught up to his friend, now jogging backwards in front of him. As they passed the girls locker room he saw most of the girls coming out and glared at them.

This only caused the girls to giggle before starting their own laps. They knew he was glaring at them because they had stolen his V-neck and turtleneck shirts before.

"Killua..." Gon started, giving his friend a look.

"Calm down, just trying to scare them," he told the other, staring intently as the same girls passed by the bleachers.

When he and Gon finished their laps they started their stretches against the matted walls. The two finished as the other students starting to join them against the wall, so they went back to sitting on the bleachers to wait for Razor to come out.

Age 13

"So..you want me..to climb that rope?" Killua questioned slowly, eyeing the rope dangling in front of his face. The middle school gym teacher was about ready to yell at this point, as Killua had procrastinated this by a good 10 minutes now.

"Killua, just get it over with! I want my turn already!" Gon whined from behind him, itching to do something active.

Killua sighed at this and grabbed a hold of the rope, feeling lazy today. He climbed rather slowly and got about a quarter of the way up when he felt something poke his bottom, making him freak out with a gasp. He looked down and saw Gon right behind him, grinning like an idiot.

"As much as I love this view, can you go a little faster?" Gon asked, and the silver-haired teen's cheeks flared red at the comment about the view. He drew his foot up and kicked down hard, seeing Gon dodge his foot. "I think I like the sight of your red face more, though."

"You're not even supposed to be up here with me!" Killua said through gritted teeth, aiming another kick as he cheeks grew a darker shade of red. Whether it was from embarrassment or anger was to be determined.

"But I didn't want to wait any longer, and I know you can go way faster than this. So go!" Gon reprimanded, poking his friend's bottom once more. Killua practically yelped at this, and grabbed onto the rope between the sides of his feet and knees before bending backwards and reaching out for his frienemy.

"Killua wait! Don't!" Gon shouted, eyes wide and obviously surprised that his friend was this agile.

"Gon! What are you doing up there? You know it's only one person on the rope at a time!" the middle school gym teacher shouted at them, now catching sight of the second up there that he didn't notice before.

Killua was angrily trying to pry Gon's hands off the rope in a vain attempt as the other tightened his grip. Gon's head popped up then as an idea struck him, and he proceeded to lick Killua's hands. Killua froze and stared at the slobber on his hands with a look of shocked horror.

"Fine, two can play that game. Not like my hands aren't already fucking disgusting now," Killua thought, reaching down and shoving his index and middle finger into each of his laughing friend's nostrils.

"AGHH! KILLUA!" Gon practically screeched, feeling his own saliva invading his nose and pain at his friend's tugging.

He let go of the rope with one hand to grab Killua's wrist, only to have his own wrist snatched by Killua's free hand. He could feel his friend's fingers dig deeper and start to wiggle inside his nose, and it did not feel good at all.

Gon couldn't take it anymore.

"I'm not going down alone," he told his friend before he let go of the rope, using that hand to grab onto Killua's wrist. Killua's legs could not support the weight of both of them on something at the same time and both began to plummet to the bottom as the other students gasped. The gym teacher ran below them both, arms open and ready to catch them. Neither even looked phased at falling.

"Guess I have to do all that climbing again," Killua stated with a sigh, looking up at his previous spot on the rope, "Well, we're almost at the bottom, get ready to make a grab."

Gon nodded and they freed themselves from each other, grabbing onto the rope a few seconds before they would hit the floor, skidding to a stop just out of reach of the teacher. The teacher sighed and dropped his arms, staring at the two.

"Both of you in my office," he demanded, before looking at Killua's dripping hands and making a disgusted face at the one with snot on it. "But go clean yourselves up first."

Don't feel obligated to give a good review, I accept good and bad alike, so don't hold back. Though I prefer any review to none at all. Constructive criticism is very much welcomed.
