I don't think I've ever mention this but this story sort of takes place in the same world as Hunter x Hunter, just without the hunters and the nen.
Disclaimer: I do not own Hunter x Hunter or any character used.
It was around in the early noon when Gon got a call from Killua, telling him that they were meeting up with Leorio and their other friend Kurapika. He was excited to meet up with his friends that he quickly finished all of his chores. After his chores he took a shower and got dressed before running to the front door to put his boots on.
"Gon, Where are you going?" His aunt asked, popping her head out the kitchen.
"Killua called to tell me that were hanging out with Leorio and Kurapika" He replied, sliding his right foot into his knee high boots."Did you need something,Mito-san?"
"Well, could you quickly run to the store and buy me some milk and eggs? I wish I could go but I need to finish the laundry"
Gon hoped that this wouldn't make him late."Hai!"
She handed him some money. "Thank you,Gon. Now make sure to come straight home once you're done hanging out with Killua and the others. I heard that there's been some kids disappearing recently, so don't talk to any strangers" She knew that she sounded like a mother, but she didn't want Gon to be the next child that suddenly disappears.
He laughed but agreed anyways."Don't worry I wont, Mito-san" He tapped the front part of his boots on the floor to make sure they were on just right."I'll be fine!" He waved to her and ran out the front door.
Mito stared at the door with a worried expression, she was always worried about letting Gon out of her sight, especially with the sudden disappearance of children. They don't even have any leads on who might've done it or where the children were taken to

Gon walked into the store and headed for the dairy products, He grabbed the right milk and a small carton of eggs. He walked towards the candy aisle and looked at the candy with a hungry stare, unfortunately Mito-san only gave him enough for the milk and eggs.
"Would you like one?" A cheerful and familiar voice asked from behind him, nearly giving him a mini heart attack.
He turn to the person, becoming shocked by the tall male."Hisoka?" He asked, looking at him from head to toe.
Today Hisoka decided to to wear his hair down from his usual style, creating a quite different person and even wearing a casual attire. He didn't even apply his signature tear drop and star.
"What coincidence to meet you here~ " Hisoka remarked, he couldn't resist the opportunity to talk to the child.
He nodded."You look really different!" His eyes still couldn't believe that it was Hisoka.
"That's magic for you...So, have you decided what candy you would like?~"
Gon turned his attention back to the row of different candy."Can I really pick one!?" He childishly asked, his eyes shinning with happiness and a bit of hope.
Hisoka smiled."Of course,Gon~ " He replied, dragging the last letter out."Go on, pick which ever you may like~" He pointed to the candy.
His hand reached out to pick up a gold tin that was tied with a beautiful red bow, it was the chocolate that had caramel when you took a bite from it."I pick this one" He held the gold tin to Hisoka, who in return nodded."
"Perfect!~" He took the tin from him."Shall we go?~ "
So, they walk along side each other to the cashier. Hisoka reached over to grab the the milk and eggs from Gon's smaller hands, he set them beside his things and the tin of chocolate.
"Hisoka!" He tried to grab his things, but the older male pushed his hands away.
"They're all together~" He said to the older woman behind the desk.
She nodded and scanned everything together."It'll be $34.96" She informed Hisoka, who handed her the exact money."Thank you,sir"Hisoka grabbed the bags and Gon followed after him.

The Magician glanced down at the child who had his arms crossed and wore an adorable pout.
"Why are you pouting?~"
He lightly blushed."You didn't need to pay for my things"He mumbled.
He chuckled."But I wanted to. Consider it a thank you for coming out to see me, it meant quite a lot to see your face beaming with amazement~ "
"But now I feel like I owe you...Is there any way I could repay you?"
'By becoming mine' He darkly thought."Well you could on that little date that I mention from before~ "
"A d-date!?" He was a bit taken back from his suggestion even though the last time he said yes without really thinking about it.
"Mm-Hmm~"
"But Mito-san said a date is only for lovers. We're not lovers"
Hisoka stifle his laugh."Of course not...but friends can also go on 'dates'~"
Gon considered it for a moment."If you say so...but you have to show me some of your magic tricks!"He exclaimed.
"Of course. It would be my pleasure~ "
The child fist pump in the air." Thanks for everything then, Hisoka. I wish I could hang out with you some more, but my friends are waiting for me" He reached out to grab the bags that had his things inside."Next time we see each other we can decided when to go on that 'date'."
"Very well~"
He waved to him before taking his leave. Hisoka watched him, until he disappeared at the corner of the building.
'Friends,hmm...It wouldn't hurt to watch over him, maybe I'll even get to find out what kind of things he likes and dislikes' He thought as his eyes glanced down to the bags that were left, a gold color caught his eyes and realized that he had forgotten the chocolate."I could use this as a reason just in case someone catches me following him~ " He softly said to himself.
First he needed to leave theses bag back at his tent, which could probably take a while but it was worth it, then make a quick dash into the downtown area were he would most likely be with those...friends. It annoyed him to know that those friends get to spend more time with him, then again they had barely met...He shook his head and headed back to the circus to drop off his things, then he can get started on his little 'watch' over the child.
Wrote the rest during class so I hope it came out okay. Thanks for reading as always^^
