Feitan

10-year-old Gon was sitting at Chrollo's feet telling him all about his role in their latest mission. The other spiders were sitting there listening to the story laughing at how dramatic the kid was.

"And then the guy walked up to me and said, little boy, don't you realize there are dangerous criminals here. Don't worry, I'll protect you. I looked at him with a smile and said, that's nice but who's going to protect you. The look on his face was priceless. He looked like a Great Stamp Pig right as it's hit with a blade in the forehead." Gon said waving his arms.

Chrollo smirked, "What happened next?"

Gon held up his hand and filled it with Nen. "I slammed my hand into his head, and he flew right into the wall going through it. His head came completely off. It was so cool. Almost like the video games that Uncle Shal and Uncle Feitan let me play with them."

Chrollo shook his head in amusement.

Everyone turned to look at the door as Feitan walked in.

"Where were you? You vanished after the mission." Nobunaga asked in annoyance.

"None of your business." Feitan said without looking at the man.

Feitan walked over and jumped up to appear by Gon and Chrollo.

"Hey Uncle Feitan. I was telling dad about the man I killed. It was so cool, wasn't it?" Gon said with a huge smirk, "I did exactly as you taught me. It was amazing."

Feitan smiled. "You did good. Here."

The man pulled out a box of chocolates and handed it to the child.

Gon's eyes lit up. "Really? For me?"

Feitan nodded. "Yes."

Gon jumped up and hugged the man quickly before jumping back. "Thanks, Uncle Feitan. This is amazing."

Feitan shook his head in exasperation before reaching out and ruffling the kid's hair. "I'm proud of you. Good work."

Gon froze and looked up at the man with wide eyes before whispering, "Your proud of me? Really?"

Feitan reached up and unzipped his jacket down enough for Gon to see his face. He leaned down and smirked at the boy. "I taught you well. I will keep teaching you, but you did good on first kill. Quickly and no blood on you. I am very proud of you."

The man quickly zipped up his jacket and jumped away.

Gon turned to Chrollo with stars in his eyes. "Did you hear that, Dad? Feitan is proud of me. He's really proud of me."

Chrollo laughed and pulled the boy to him ruffling his hair. "Yes. I heard. We are all proud of you."

The phantom troupe couldn't help but laugh as Gon jumped up and down in excitement. Feitan had a certain gleam in his eyes for the entire week as Gon shadowed him with a huge smile on his face.

Machi

"I am going to kill Uvog for not being careful. He could have killed you." Machi said huffing as she wrapped a bandage around Gon's wrist.

"He didn't mean to, Aunt Machi. It was an accident." 6-year-old Gon said with a smile.

Machi huffed. "He knows better than throwing you into the air without paying attention to where he's at. You hit the ground hard when the floor caved in, and he fell through the floor. Lay down so I can look at your ribs. I need to make sure they are not broken."

Gon tensed with a look. "You don't have to do that. They are fine. Promise."

Machi glared at the child. "I will check for myself. Now lay down."

Gon glanced at the door debating if he could run for it. Before he could decide, he was suddenly pulled back and strapped to the table with Aunt Machi's ropes.

"AUNT MACHI, No fair." Gon whined.

Machi smirked. "This will be over before you know it."

The woman lifted Gon's shirt and pressed on the ribs checking them. She honestly didn't get why he was so reluctant to allow health checkups. It was annoying.

Running a finger around one rib, Machi was surprised when the kid shuddered away from her. Glancing at his face, Gon had his eyes closed while biting his lip.

Machi's lips twitched as she realized what was wrong with her charge. "I believe there might be something wrong with this one. Better check it thoroughly."

Machi ran her fingers over both sides pinching and running her nails up and down. Gon lost it when she got to the top rib.

"NOOOOO. AUUUNNNNTT MAAACCHIII STTTOOOOPPP." Gon howled in laughter.

Machi just smirked. "I have to check to make sure you are not hurt. It would go faster if you stayed still."

She went to the back of his ribs under his back running her nails across it. This resulted in the boy jerking up squealing in laughter.

"iiiiii cccaaannnttttt hheeellllppp iiitttt. Plllleaasssseeeee aaaauuuunnnntttiiii sssttooopppp." Gon begged.

Machi leaned over. "Are you going to obey the rules about letting Uncle Uvo throw you?"

"yyyeeeessss. Iiii sssswwweeeaaarrrr." Gon screamed in laughter as the woman moved her hands up his sides to his underarms.

Machi moved back and removed her strings. "You are good. You can go to your lessons with Uncle Phinks."

Gon sat up giggling while rubbing his ribs. "Yes, Aunty Machi."

Just as the boy was about to get off the table, Machi stopped him with a hand on his shoulder. "Gon, just a warning if you deliberately put yourself in danger for fun what I did today will be child's play compared to what I will do to you. I know the body better than anyone and I know how to transform grown men as strong as Uvo into little children just by a touch. I won't allow you to put yourself in danger just because Uvo says it will be fun."

Gon smiled and hugged the woman. "I promise to be more careful, Aunt Machi. You are the greatest doctor I know. I love you."

Machi smiled. "I love you too, kid."

Shalnark

Shalnark smirked as his race care pushed Gon's out of the way to win the race. The TV lit up with the words, WINNER SHALNARK.

He turned to the kid with a smirk. The 8-year-old huffed in a pout.

"That's not fair. I was winning." Gon said.

Shalnark laughed. "Too bad. I won. Let's play again."

Gon glanced at him before nodding his head. "Ok."

A few minutes into it, Gon turned to Shalnark stopping the game. "Uncle Shalnark, when is my birthday?"

Shalnark glanced at the boy in confusion on where this came from. "We are not sure. We found you on the 12th of May. Why?"

Gon frowned before asking, "When is all of yall's birthday?"

Shalnark sighed. "I don't know. We were all abandoned so we don't know. The Phantom Troup became a thing on the 5th of April."

Gon's eyes lit up. "That's in a week."

Shalnark nodded. "Yep. Can we play now?"

Gon nodded his head before turning to the tv.

One Week Later

"Has anyone seen Gon? He was supposed to be in his room." Pakunoda said in annoyance.

"He's been acting strange all week. Disappearing a lot." Franklin said with a huff.

Chrollo frowned. "We need to find him."

Before the group could do anything, they felt Gon's Nen.

The boy ran in with a big smile. "Come on everyone."

The spiders were led down to a door in an unused hallway. Chrollo glanced at Gon's excited face before opening the door to stare in shock.

He walked in with the others following who glanced around in confusion. The room was decorated with streams and balloons. On the table were little cupcakes and some wrapped presents.

"Gon, what is this?" Chrollo asked.

Gon smiled. "Shalnark said we don't know your birthdays so I made a party for when the phantom troupe became a family. I'm really good at pickpocketing thanks to Uncle Shalnark, Uncle Feitan and Aunt Shizuku. I stole all this stuff, but the cupcakes and I had to have a homeless guy buy Uncle Uvo's present."

"Present?" Uvo asked with curiosity.

Gon pushed the tablecloth up to see the two cases of beer.

"Hell yeah. Greatest present ever." Uvo said, grabbing a beer.

Gon quickly handed out all the different presents to the other members. Shalnark sat there on his phone looking for a good gift to the boy. He deserved something too.

"Uncle Shalnark?" Gon said with a nervous smile.

"Yes Gon," Shalnark glanced at the boy who handed him a small, wrapped present.

The man opened the present only to gasp. "How did you get this? This game is very rare. I've been having trouble finding a copy."

Gon smirked. "I heard a rich boy talking about how his daddy bought him the game. I convinced Uncle Feitan to help me get in the house without getting caught."

Shalnark smiled at the boy. "Thank you, Gon."

Gon jumped into his arms hugging the man. "You're the best big Uncle brother ever, Shal."

Shalnark sighed and hugged the boy close. "you're the best little nephew brother a guy could ever ask for, Gon."

The rest of the night was the members laughing over the gifts from Gon with stories from their solo missions where they defeated the enemy.

Shalnark smiled as he watched Gon fall asleep in Pakunoda's arms. It was fun being an older uncle/brother with someone looking up to him.

Uvogin, Nobunaga and Shizuka

The two men were staring at the cards between them. They had been playing poker for several hours and Nobunaga was losing.

Uvogin smirked before laying his cards down. "Full house."

Nobunaga snarled and slammed his cards down. "Shit."

Uvogin laughed while Nobunaga glared.

"Shit."

The two men's eyes widened before looking to the left to see 5-year-old Gon sitting there watching them.

"oh damn. When did he get here?" Uvogin said with a look.

"Damn." Gon said with a big smile on his face.

Nobunaga quickly jumped up and scooped the boy up. "No. No. Don't say that."

Gon looked between the two with a smile. "Shit. Damn."

The two men shared a look but before they could do anything the air filled with a dark aura.

"WHAT DID HE SAY?" Pakundora said from behind.

The two men turned slowly to see not only Pakunoda standing behind them but Shizuka as well. One woman was glaring while the other watched in amusement.

"SHIT. DAMN." Gon said with a laugh.

Shizuka lifted the child into her arms.

Gon opened his mouth with a smile. "shi…"

Shizuka reached out and grabbed the child's tongue between her fingers. "No. No. Gon. We don't say that word."

The woman released his tongue. Gon stared at her in shock before slowly saying, "Da…"

Shizuka reached out with her fingers but Gon jerked back before saying, "No. No bad word."

The woman smiled and pulled out a sucker from her pocket. "That's right Gon. We don't say those two words. Bad boys say those words. You're not a bad boy."

Gon took the sucker and stuck it in his mouth. Glancing at Nobunaga and Uvogin. "Bad boys."

Shizuka turned and smirked at the boy. "That's right Gon. They are bad boys. Let's go over here and we will work on your animals."

"Cow." Gon said with a huge smile. "Mooo."

Shizuka smiled. "That's right, Gon. Cows go Moo."

"We are going to have a word about appropriate language for Gon." Pakunoda said with an evil smirk.

Nobunaga and Uvogin shared a look of fear.

Bonolenov Ndongo, Kortopi and Franklin

The three smirked as they watched 9-year-old Gon stare at his card in concentration.

Gon smirked before laying down his cards. "Full House."

Bonolenov winked at Gon as he laid down his cards, "Four-of-a-kind"

Franklin shook his head. "Straight Flush."

Gon frowned before turning to Kortopi.

The man smirked and laid down his cards. "Royal Flush."

Gon sighed before tensing as he stared at Kortopi. "Wait. Is that cards in your sleeve?"

Kortopi just smiled bigger and pulled the cards out of his sleeve.

"You cheated." Gon said in shock. Turning to the other two, "Did you cheat too?"

Franklin smirked while Bonolenov tilted his head in amusement. They both pulled out cards from hidden places.

"That's not fair." Gon said in annoyance.

Franklin smirked and reached out ruffling the kid's hair. "Life isn't fair. There's a reason we are playing Poker. Your lesson is in two parts. Part one is to catch us cheating and part two is to cheat yourself without being caught. You got Kortopi because of his sleeves. You need to catch Bono and I."

"Good luck, Kid." Bonolenov said.

Gon glanced at the cards before staring determined. "Bring it on."

Franklin smirked before shuffling the cards."

Phinks

7-year-old Gon was laying on the ground and pushed up against the bar. The weights lifted slowly. A few minutes later it dropped as the boy breathed deep.

"1 thousand" Gon said.

Phinks lifted the metal bar placing the weights back on the rack.

"Good job, kid. We're done for the day. Go shower." Phinks said while turning to unwrap the cloth strips around his wrists.

The man frowned and turned to look at the boy. A smile formed on his face with a laugh.

Gon was fast asleep on the bench. Phinks walked over and picked up the boy. His head was resting on the man's shoulder.

"Kid, you are something else." Phinks said with a smirk.

He carried the boy to his room and lowered him down on the bed. He froze as Gon's hand gripped his hand.

"I'm going to make you proud, Uncle Phinks. I'm going to be as strong as you one day." Gon said while rubbing his eyes. "I love you Uncle Phinks."

Phinks face went light pink before he shook his head. He ran his hand thought the boy's hair. Gon's eyes closed and he slowly fell deep into sleep.

Phinks glanced at the door making sure no one was there. He leaned down and kissed the boy on the head quickly before whispering, "Love you too, nephew."

The man rose and quickly left the room. No one could know that he had a soft spot for the kid.
