I sit down in the room as everyone uncomfortably sits nearby.

I sigh "The Darkscryers are a fraction of the five killers, known only as The Shadows. No one knows much about us. I ran away because of... let's just say family issues... And evasion of personal space... Also this..."

I open my bag pulling out the mask it's a dark, silver plated, distorted skull.

Killua steps back after looking at it. I put the mask back in my bag "You felt it too the evil emitting off that cursed thing! Basically it's the mother lode of all pain asses... He speaks to me somehow after I accidently wore it..."

I continue "So one night I stole it and ran away. I want to become a Hunter and destroy it one day. By travelling the world, I'm hoping to meet someone who can destroy it. If not it will be my burden to bear! That's why, I wasn't planning on making friends... So after this you can choose to dump me or not... It matters little to me..."

Killua looks down at me "Before you said something, what exactly do you mean a new way to kill?"

I look up "Why would you want to know that?"

Killua shrugs his shoulders "It's a unique thing you said to me."

I sigh "When I was younger, someone close to me taught me a trick on how to make someone surrender like before. It's a simple trick really... And I can't explain it... but all I have to do is look at someone as if I'm aiming to kill them. The rest is up to the person I've really met someone who could survive it..."

I smile thinking "Although I just wished it worked on my father after all those bullshit stunts he pulled..."

I get up moving to a corner "I need to rest. It's been making me very tired lately..." I fall asleep instantly, hearing the voice again in my head clearly laughing "Another, why can't you just kill people like the rest of your family... It's very fun getting your hands dirty, you know?! Like that Killua kid He can kill people without a care in the world... It's a shame I can't switch owners..."

I'm about to retort something, when Killua shakes me awake.

I wake slowly, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. I looking around, noticing everyone's asleep except Killua. We looks into my eyes as I yawn "What's up?"

I look away as Killua turns my head back to him "Tell me more about you?"

I look away "There's nothing more I can say really..."

Killua turns my head back as I continue "What you want to know?"

Killua murmurs "Well... You could start with the fact you have two dads..."

I smile, thinking to myself as I ignore his question that I may be gay for you... I don't know if that statements true by I want to do things with you... hug you... comfort you... touch that hair... does that hair feel softer than it looks?

I bury my head in my legs. After a brief moment I look up, into Killua's eyes "Why did you have to be cute?!"

Killua looks away surprised, and embarrass from my comment "Shut up!"

I rest my head in my legs again "Just pretend I never said anything. It's embarrassing that, those words even left my mouth... You want to know why I have two...? Well I've had two since as long as I can remember... One's the obvious mother figure and people would have never guessed who it was... The other is strong, manly, buff and completely, an airhead outside of his abilities..."

I turn to look at Killua "What else you want to know?" Killua smiles brightly as he probes me for new information I only tell him facts that are somewhat, truthful... I feel like if I open up to this guy I would become attached.

I don't want to become attached to him... just in case it hurts me... Hell, even these feeling confuse the hell out of me!

Time continues to fly by as I watch everyone and answer questions when spoken to.

Killua only seemed to be interested in asking questions about me whenever we were alone.

30 hours in

I get up yawning, grabbing a book from my bag.

Gon looks at me, interested in what I'm reading "What you reading?"

I look up, facing Gon before answering him "A horror book... Written by Darren Shan. I enjoy his Demonata Series. I have his entire collection at home I only have book one with me." I return back to reading.

Kurapika looks at my direction "Never pegged you as a reader..."

I laugh slightly "Yeah... my looks betray me... plus the family history doesn't help my standing point. My dad likes to read... but not the same stuff as me..."

Kurapika blinks "What does he read?" My eye twitches slightly "Romance..." Kurapika is about to ask another question as I add on top of my last piece of information "Erotica..."

Killua lifts and eyebrow "And you would know this how...?"

I sigh "While training he reads them..." Killua is about to ask something as I cut him off "Out loud... What makes the situation even worse, is he can read and dodge me at the same time..."

I look up smiling "Apart from reading... there's not much I enjoy, very few things interest me..." I look at the group smiling "Murder by far isn't one of them! It's funny because I'm born in a family of assassins... Let's just say... One of my parents doesn't want me to go down that path..."

I return back to reading as Gon asks a question this time "What's your father's names?"

Leorio blinks, confused from Gon's question "Why father's? You know his name it's Vastorie..." I respond "Nathaniel..." Leorio blinks in confusion before yelling in surprise "Whaa?!"

I chuckle, lifting two fingers "I have two dads... You know what's funny... a lot of people say I look like my dad... So you can just imagine my reaction most of the time. Although, usually after meeting Vastorie... they I have his eyes... And thank god not his personality! The meaning of be serious, means... to dack you..."

Killua starts to laugh from hearing that as the rest of them join in soon after. Laughing either at the joke about my dad or another's laugh.

I don't laugh at either, but I do smile at Killua's laughter. I don't know why but it warms my heart, seeing him laugh like that.

45 hours in

The group have started to talk to me again. Involving me in most of their conversations but I usually watch them intently as they had fun together talking. I feel like the odd one out of the group

Soon enough time had flown by as the 50 hours went by. I get up excited "Finally we can back into the game with less than 10 hours!" I shoot Leorio a look as he sighs "Yeah... I serious thought I might win that time..."

Gon is the first to rush out as we're forced to chase him down.

Time Skip

After get chase down by all manner of traps, we finally reach another door, that isn't booby trapped. Killua reads the plaque "This will be the last decision made by majority rule. Are you ready? Choose O or X."

I sigh after Killua reads it "Oh~. Not this again!..." I press O, waiting for the door to open.

The door opens as we are greeted by a voice "Please select a path there are two choices. One path allows five to pass, but is long and difficult. The other path allows only three but is short and easy. Incidentally, the long and difficult path requires a minimum of forty-five hours. The short and easy path leads to the goal in approximately three minutes. Press O for the long and difficult path, and x for the short and easy path."

I look at the weapons as the group speaks amongst themselves.

I grab one of the halberds, turning to face the others "Well it can't be helped it's been nice meeting you guys."

I swing the halberd around, clipping part of the wall before pointing the weapon at them. I smile, putting it back on the shelf "I've always wanted to do that! At least once..."

Leorio raises his hand "I vote we leave him!"

I glare at Leorio, yelling back at him "Hey that's no fair! It was a joke...!"

I look at Gon, seeing him smile at something "What? Is there something on your mind?"

He points at the wall behind me, making me turn around to look at the wall.

I see part of the wall cleaved off as I think "Oh shit! I destroyed part of the wall..."

I turn back around, facing the others as I scratch my head "Whoops... My bad!"

Gon smiles "I have an idea that may work."

He grabs one of the weapons "We will carve our way out. Everyone choose O then we will break the wall down." I smile widely at Gon, shifting it into a larger grin before I speak "Isn't that considered cheating...?"

Gon raises his fist in the air "I don't care we are all winning together! No one, is going to lose!"

Time Skip

We manage to barely make it in time, getting called out called out as the winners from 20 onwards, making it 25 winners for Phase 3.

Upon leaving the tower, we meet Lippo who congratulates us for passing the last phase "Ladies and Gentlemen, congratulations on having escaped Trick Tower. Only the Fourth Phase and The final Phase remain. The Fourth Phase will take place over there, on Zevil Island.

Let us proceed." Lippo clicks his fingers as another man brings out a box "You will each pull out a card that contains a number, the number decides who you hunt and who is hunting you."

We all grab a card each.

Lippo continues "Now that you all have a card, you can remove the seal to see who you have gotten. The card indicates who your target is you have to steal the person's number ID. The ID you are required to get is worth 3 points, your own is worth another 3 points and everyone else's worth only 1 point. You need 6 points in order to continue, the boat down there will take you to the island."

Time Skip (Boat trip to Zevil Island)

On the trip to Zevil island, I rip the plastic off to see my number.

Look at my number, I release a small sigh in relief Hmmm! It's great I didn't get any of them, I couldn't hunt down any of them and I'm not about to hunt down 3 others. That requires too much effort...

Gon and Killua walk up to me. I look up at them as Gon asks curiously "Who did you get?"

I smile at them both "None of you guys! I was lucky enough to get 198..."

Killua looks surprised, focusing on me "I got 199! What about you Gon?"

"44..." Gon pouts as I laugh "You have... by far... the worst luck, Gon!"

I look at them both, turning to Killua to focus on him this time "Maybe, I might bump into you again Killua... Seeing as the numbers are so close!"

Time Skip

I follow Killua, seeing as our numbers were so close.

If I struck by his side I was sure to find my target. And If I was wrong about who I think I got... at least I'll get to watch him.

I sigh internally "I feel like a stalker, trying to find out more about their crush..."

I blink in surprise from my own thoughts, slapping myself twice.

No! Bad Daniel! Stop thinking of Killua like that! You shouldn't even be feeling like this toward anyone! He's Killua! A great friend... A friend who happens to be a boy... his the same gender as you! Does he even remotely swing that way?! He could like only girls for all I know! He could be Bi-curious...

I slap myself again.

Damn it Daniel his a boy friend! Boy... Friend? Boyfriend... Oh fuck... I can't be in love! My dad's going to kill me! Kill me with questions, shrills and-

Killua suddenly calls out, snapping me from my train of thoughts "I know you're hiding there."

I freak out as he starts walking in the opposite direction of where I'm hiding.

I sigh relief, noticing someone else here "I wonder if Killua can feel this guys presence?"

I follow Killua and notice the guy "One of the 3 brothers..."

The other two brothers step out, making me clench my fist.

These two better not hurt Killua I'm gonna... FUCK! Maybe I am in love... Wait! Maybe I'm just over thinking things through I do want to protect Killua... So maybe that's it... I'm being over protective... Oh god... I hope I'm not turning into Vastorie by lusting after Killua! That would suck

I watch as the blue shirt brother charges Killua, kicking him to the ground.

My fingers dig into the bark on the tree as Killua gets back up, reading the number "198 huh!"

I put on my jacket hoody, smiling at my luck "Perfect!"

The three brothers surround Killua as they prepare for an attack. I drop down silently, grabbing the oldest of the brothers, twisting his arm around his back "Sorry Killua for stalking you..."

Killua growls at me "Why would you do that?!"

He disarms the third brother pulling out his tag "Tsk... 197!"

I turn to the older brother "Where's the tag? I'm guessing you have 199."

He pulls out the tag, handing it over to me. I smile at Killua "Trade? You take 199 and I can have 198... And the guy trying to hide in the trees can take the other one..."

I throw 199 over to him before he can answer, hoping that he will in fact give me 198.

He sends one flying away "Go fetch! Baldy!"

I lift an eyebrow as he throws 198 into the air, catching it constantly "If you can catch me... maybe, I'm willing to part with it..."

I frown as he vanishes into thin air "Sorry guys..." I kick the oldest away "I have a boy to catch..." I rush away trying to catch up to Killua.

We run around for what seems to be ages. Whenever I get close, he just laughs, changing directions. I can't help but smile whenever he laughs because as soon as he stops he smiles making my heart skip a beat. His smile is so warm. His eyes are like an ocean mesmerising, and... Constantly drawing you in like tidal waves in the middle of the sea.

I finally manage to catch up to him, grabbing my number out of his hand. I miss completely gabbing his hand instead. When I touch his hand I notice it's oddly warm, like it feels just right in my own...

I push my fingers between his own, blushing immensely when I realise what I had just done. I stop pulling my fingers away, snatching the number away from him before I could be interrogated.

Time Skip

I lay down in the grass hoping not to get caught.

Holding up my hand to the sky, I look at my fingers, thinking back on that last encounter "It felt so surreal..."

His hand was so warm... So soft... So perfect... It felt just right, to have his hands connected with mine... why...? I've never felt like this before with anyone... I want to be with him... as a friend... I want to be his best friend! I want... More?

"No!" I shake my head side to side, trying to wipe that thought away.

I want to be his best friend! I'm just over thinking things here... Over thinking...

I stop realising theirs someone nearby. I stop once I realise who it is "Killua?" He steps out, with his cheeks flushed "How did you do that?"

I laugh loudly, hoping his not asking what I think he is "You just grab his arm, put it around their back, and hold them in place."

Killua shakes his head "I couldn't feel you were there?"

I smile, shyly with a sigh of relief, knowing that he wasn't talking about our hands "Using shadows is a part of my repertoire Killua..."

I smile at Killua, hoping to change the topic, and maybe spend some time with him "Want to team up? While we wait for the time up period... of course..."

Killua nods slyly back "Thanks for the assistance... Even though, I didn't need it! But why did you let that ninja guy know, that we knew he was there? I wanted to keep him hanging by holding onto his tag!"

I shrug my shoulders "I don't know... I guess... I wanted to let him know that he failed as a ninja..."

I laugh at my next thought "Although, his face would have would have been priceless!"

Killua joins by my side, thinking out loud "I wonder what's Gon is doing...?"

I shrug at his question "Who knows with that kid... his too random to predict..."

Killua nudges me "What about you?"

I nudge back "What about me?" I am serious where are you headed with this?

Killua seriously thinks "YOU'RE, unpredictable... When serious you get the job done. But... most of the time you joke around..."

I laugh at Killua "Yeah like that time in phase 3 he got Johnny Caged"

I look at the sky, thinking to myself.

I wouldn't mind being by your side Killua, but if you don't want me around, that's fine by me... I hope...

I turn to Killua, smiling at him.

But something doesn't feel right... I just have a gut feeling to protect you, not that you need any... Although... If you do... I really hope you'll rely on me...

Time Skip (Jeez how many do I want to add in...)

Upon reaching the end, The finalists are announced by the lady from the boat "Hisoka-san, Pokkle-san, Killua-san, Daniel-san, Gittarackur-san, Bodoro-san and Hanzo-san. Is that all 7 people."

I frown slightly, thinking to myself "The others didn't make it... It's a shame because they would make really good hunters..."

Gon, Kurapika and Leorio come out as she announces them next, making it now 10 people, have passed. I smile to myself "I wonder what the Final Phase is?"

The voice, if you haven't figured out comes straight from Tempest's mask.

I have changed a lot so far because after looking at Trials, I noticed that my character was having some major OOC moments! I know an OC having OOC moments... That's ridiculous! But alas I kinda fucked him up. So now I'm just fixing him to be more like him.

I know Killua and Gon changed a lot over 2 years but my guy went from:

Himself - Hisoka - Gon - Himself - Netero - Hisoka - and finally back to himself.

I was like fuck man... choose one personality! And stick with it...
