I snap awake, looking around to get my bearings, feeling awfully tired. I groan loudly "I feel tapped..."

As I'm looking around, my eyes spot Killua, resting his head on the bed.

"Why am I not surprised to see you?" I ruffle Killua's hair as he stirs slightly "Give me five more minutes..."

I sigh, leaning back on the bed, causing it to squeak loudly. Killua wakes up from being startled by the noise. I smile at Killua as he responds shocked "You're awake? How long have you been awake?"

I point at Killua, questioning him this time "I've been awake for maybe 30 seconds give or take, how long have you been sleeping there?"

Killua looks away "Just just now, I fell asleep..."

I nod, not believing him in the slightest "Ok... what happened to Yandere and that sword?" Killua frowns "Which one?"

I blink in confusion, remembering about the one I held in my fight "The big one..."

Killua points to a sword, hidden in the corner of my room.

I smile at Killua "Thanks! Yan doesn't deserve that sword. I can't believe he'd kill all the Derekricas, just for an Heirloom..."

I poke Killua on the nose "Killua... where is Yan?"

Killua looks at me confused, from wanting to know where Yan is "HE, should be out cold! But, I'm thinking of making that permanent..." I raise my hand, resting it on his shoulder "No! His not worth your time."

Killua pouts "Why would you even want to protect him?" I frown from Killua's comment "Yan or Yandere, his given nickname, was one of 4 chasing me... I made it pretty damn clear to him, I'm off limits!"

Killua looks at me with a slyly grin "You... have a harem?"

I laugh, louder than I had anticipated "I don't believe I did. But, my father did seem to think so. Well... at least one of them did... besides the point! IF... what Yan said is true, that means there's only 4 families left."

Killua interest peeks "So the 5 families... who are they?" I think for a moment "5 factions usually linked under one house hold... SO we got the Darkscryers, you've just met the Derekricas, there are the Graphites, the Om-nietros hmm... who am I missing the Li-Cartras."

I nod slightly "That's all of them... I think... Each house hold usually possesses a son or daughter, that possesses the direct family gene. Since I'm a Manipulator, it's safe to assume Vastorie is also a Manipulator as well... Yan was an Enhancer. So, it's safe to assume the whole family is a line of Enhancers... Don't double quote me on this... As for the others I have no clue."

I think for a moment out loud "If you and I had a child"

Killua blushes as I continue "Not that we could. So, it's safe to assume it would be an Manipulator..."

Killua stops me "Hold on! We are two guys, that shouldn't even be possible! And don't even go there, not when we are still under trial... by the end... one of us could choose not to continue."

I flick Killua on the nose lightly "Then explain my existence! And as for if we choose to separate, I would sadly accept your choice..."

Killua frowns "I said one of us! What makes you so determined, that it would me, who chooses to dump you."

I scratch my chin "I can't say if you would do it. Because it's your choice to make in the end... That, and I'm completely asphyxiated by you to the point, for me to actually dump you... I would have to really hate myself! Or something I've done to you..."

"You... Ahhh...!" Killua thinks for a moment.

He scrunches his hair, cutting off the old topic quickly "Back to an old point before you can embarrassed me! For you, to have two legitimate fathers, should be impossible!..."

I nod, thinking out loud "But nothing is impossible..." Hell I pulled a sword out of thin air! That should be impossible!

A knock at the door, causes Killua to get up quickly.

He walks over to the door, opening it, only to be greeted by Gon, Wing and Zushi.

Gon smiles "Your awake?"

I nod as Wing walks up to me "Can you explain how you pulled off those stunts...?"

I groan massaging my head "You're going to have to jog my memory..."

Wing lifts a finger "When did you learn to use Manipulate your shadows, creating a Shadow Blade?"

I sigh "The thing is... I have no idea how I created a, WHAA?!"

Wing frowns at my sudden outburst "You heard me. Shadow Blade..."

I blink in confusion as Wing sighs, pulling out a CD "I got a replay... It's better if I show you than explain it..."

He pops the CD into the TV, jumping to the scene "Watch..."

Yan swings down the sword, only to have it blocked by the sword I brought out.

He pauses on the spot "Did you see it?" I shake my head as Killua points out "Your shadow flickered, and decreased in size..."

I blink at Killua's comment, focusing on the screen once again "You are right Killua... it did decrease... Maybe it was a weird light refection..."

Wing rewinds the scene slowly to the point where I didn't have the sword "And... now it's size increased..."

Wing nods "That sword was made entirely out of your shadow and the point you summoned it was at the speed of light..."

There's a joke to be made there... but it's too easy for me to make it!

"So Wing..." I muse as Wing interjects "Care to explain? Or show it?"

"I would if I could... basically it was one of the lucky draws." I shake my head as Wing sighs "You kids are going to be the death of me... but I'm surprise you could go toe to toe with an enhancer..."

I look at Killua, focusing back on Wing "I had motivation, not only that, I Manipulated Yan into weakening himself when I took him head on. He could demolished me when he took the full brunt of my attacks. But as soon as I touched a nerve, he lost complete control, making it easier to get a strike in. I may be physically strong... but against him, I was like a child kicking a brick wall."

"Also!" I look towards the sword in the corner "That did take a massive toll on me. When I look back I remember being drained dry at the time, though at the time, I didn't notice... I realise now, that the blade was sapping my Nen, or strength like a water leak. And I also realise now, that it's only supposed to be used by Yan's family, which are now dead by the very same hands of its user."

I look away, focusing on my bed, "I'll have to return home someday" Killua winces as I continue "So that the sword can be placed under my father's protection. Until then, I'll have to watch over it... Also..."

I focus back on the group "How long was I out?"

I look at everyone as stand there awkwardly, trying to avoid answering my question.

My eyes slowly move in Killua's direction, probing him for answers "KILLUA?"

Killua replies quickly, not wanting my eyes to focus on him any longer "6 days."

I look back at the bed, thinking. No wonder I have to pee badly... I've got god knows how much backed in my bladder...

"Oh!... that long..." I sigh as Killua nods. My eyes look back up, focusing on Wing "It just means I'll have to train harder to catch up! Because I feel like I could run a mile."

And pee for just as long...

I jump out of bed, heading towards the bathroom.

July the 5th - afternoon

Wing calls us over to his house, to see the progress of our training undergone.

"Now, show me what you've accomplished with your training. Killua-kun, your first." Wing smiles at all of us.

Killua goes first, working his Ren's magic. He steps back, smiling at us "It's done."

We each dip our finger in the water, tasting it.

Mmm it tastes sweet... Like Killua's-DAMN IT! It's sweet just like Killua's... smile! Yeah... Smile! Not his lips... Damn...

Zushi responds first "It's sweet"

Gon responds amazed "Wow, it tastes like honey."

My brain clicks after tasting it properly, recognising it immediately "Your actually close... Gon, its Dark chocolate mixed with a hint of honey to sweeten it, am I right Killua?"

Killua nods, feeling embarrassed that I even guessed it as Wing smiles amused "Excellent."

Zushi, you're next.

Zushi focuses his Ren, struggling to move the leaf slightly. The leaf begins to move slowly counter clock wise.

Zushi pushes himself to his limits, managing to move the leaf only 90 degrees "That's the best I can manage..."

Wing smiles "That's fine but sadly it won't be enough to pass. You'll need to train some more. Daniel-kun you're up."

I nod, focusing on the cup "Now give me some leeway... Seeing as Gon and Killua had a 6 day head start..."

I flood the cup with Ren, moving the leaf slowly clock wise. I get the leaf to spin clockwise twice, before changing its direction to go counter-clockwise twice again "How's that?"

Wing smiles "You managed to turn the leaf twice, and managed to get it to go in both directions, I'm impressed!"

Wing claps lightly "I commend you. Gon-kun, you're up next."

Gon takes a deep breath, focusing his Ren. The water floods out of the glass, creating small cracks from the pressure alone. From the side of glass, he manages to make another exit point from the glass.

Wing tries to stop Gon, trying to cleans up the leaking water "Stop, Gon-kun!"

He pulls the glass away, stopping Gon from flooding his room "You really are something."

Gon smiles "I was feeling pretty good about this."

Wing nods, looking between each of us "Gon-kun, Killua-kun, Daniel-kun. Today is your graduation day."

We smile as Gon responds confused "Huh?"

Killua retorts excitedly "Really?"

I smile with a huge grin plastered across my face. I turn to face Killua, high fiving him as Gon exclaims "We did it!"

Zushi sighs a little bit disappointed "Master, what about me?"

Wing keeps his smile up "You still need to train a bit more."

Zushi nods, sighing in disappointment "Osu."

I pat Zushi on the shoulder "A little more work and I can grantee you'll be able to do what I just did."

Zushi nods with a smaller smile this time "Osu!"

Wing looks at Gon, then turns to me "Oh and before I forget, Gon-kun and Daniel-kun... I have something really important to tell you. Gon Freecss-kun and Daniel Darkscryer-kun, you have both passed the secret Hunter Exam!"

I look confused at Gon, wondering if he knows what's going on. He looks at me with the same expression as Wing repeats himself "You've passed. Congratulations."

I respond confused "There was a Secret Hunter Exam? Like another Phase?"

Wing nods "Correct. You were able to pass."

Gon retorts "What do you mean?"

Wing looks serious at us "You are required to learn Nen before becoming a Hunter, as professional Hunters are expected to be exceptionally strong. One of your basic tasks as a Hunter will be apprehending evil poachers and criminals. You must be strong enough to fight crime. However, this power is highly destructive when used for wrongdoings. Revealing the existence of Nen during the Exam would be dangerous. Therefore, the test is only administered to those who pass the public Exam."

I sigh "So the Exam was only the beginning..."

Killua eye twitches slightly "Oh, so you were going to teach us, or at least Gon and Daniel, all along..."

Wing nods "Yep!"

I look at Gon "And poor Gon got put through the ringer by us all..."

Wing grins "I should mention that the head Shingen-ryu master is chairman Netero."

I reply in shock "WHAT?"

Killua's eye twitches as Gon freezes in place.

"The master has told me much about you." Wing muses as Killua growls "That old man..."

Wing turns to Killua "Please take the Hunter Exam again. You will definitely pass next time."

I smile, wrapping my arm around Killua "Don't worry I'll make sure of it... even if I have to throw him like a catapult to the place."

Wing nods in agreement "You are more than qualified. I guarantee it!"

Killua looks in my direction, glaring seriously at him.

Killua's P.O.V

I sigh, looking at Wing "I don't think I have a choice..."

Why are Daniel and Gon giving me the same look? I swear these two could be the ultimate stubborn brothers. Gon in everything and Daniel in not wanting help and wanting to do everything himself!

Jeez... Why do I even like this guy so much to begin with?! His stubborn to the point, he want to give me everything...! How can I be a guy who wants to help me and wants nothing in return... Would it even work?

I thought relationships in general were a give and take type? For all situations... Since I know his birthday, I shall tell him mine...

Daniel's P.O.V

Gon smiles "Hey Wing-san, have you heard anything about the others who passed?"

Wing nods "Sure... Let's see Hanzo and Kurapika have learned Nen from other teachers. Pokkle is struggling with Ren. Leorio has begun studying for the medical school exam. As you know Hisoka and Illumi already knew Nen, so they were qualified."

I retort "Qualified crazy sadists and masochists more like it!"

Killua laughs a little from the joke, earning a small hidden smile from me.

I made him laugh... Darn his smile is cute!

Gon smiles "Then Kurapika and Leorio are working hard."

Killua nods "Yeah."

I nod, adding on top of Wing's information about Leorio "Also, Leorio can't afforded to slack off in medical school."

Wing looks at us again "Now, Gon-kun, I have one warning for you. When you fight Hisoka tomorrow, don't push yourself too hard. All right?" Gon nods "Yes, SIR!" We leave, waving goodbye.

As we head to our rooms, I stop at Killua's room, turning around to face him "How does it feel to know you now stand on even turf as your brother?"

Killua thinks for a moment "Scary..."

I look toward Killua with a serious face "I will find out what you brother did to you!... Then, I'll make him pay when I become strong enough! And I'll make him beg for your forgiveness!"

Killua's P.O.V

Damn... Why's he so selfish?! Why does he even do this for me! We're only temporally dating?! So, why is he always trying to make him happy? Why can't he let me make him... happy?

Daniel smiles at me "Until then... Let's have some fun!"

"But train as well!" I nod as Daniel nods soon after.

I- I- I think I want to stay with you... I want Gon and you to be happy... because you two in my life, make me happy... But Daniel...

Your selfishness to make me happy, an assassin, someone who murdered people for a living... May have won me over... I think I want to stay with you...

And if we choose to break up at a later date... As long as we can both deal with it, and still be best of friends... I want to stay by both of your sides...

Although, your wardrobe seriously needs to change old man! And the first thing I'm doing when we get a chance, is going shopping!
