《Athanasia Freecss》Chapter Nine: Leorio's Finger
Advertisement
The four of them; Gon, Kurapika, Leorio and Athanasia followed the Captain into a certain room where the other staff were (or was-? My brain is not working rn😫) controlling the ship (I'm sorry, I don't know what its called TwT)
They stood and lined up silently as the old man turned to face them.
"First, tell me your names" he demanded.
"I'm Gon!" gon answered as he raised his hand, a big smile on his face.
"And I'm-" Athanasia was going to respond when an excited Gon cut her.
"This is my twin, Athanasia!" he chirped while pointing towards the girl who was standing between him and Kurapika.
' at least let me introduce myself on my own! Ugh, I wanted to act cool!' Athy thought as she mentally face palmed.
"twin?" The captain repeated after gon, disbelief could be seen on his face.
' well duh, yes. Are you deaf, man?!' You know whose thoughts are these.
" we may not look alike but yes, it's true.we're twins." Athanasia said.
He nodded and hummed in response then looked at the other two.
"I'm kurapika." he said with a composed and calm voice.
"It's leorio!" he spoke with a hint of annoyance in his tone.
' dude, chill. ' Athy thought.
"why do you want to become a hunter?" The captain asked.
Leorio, who was pissed off pointed his finger to the man in front of them and snapped, " Hey! If you're not an examiner, you can't boss us around!"
The captain kept a straight face and demanded "just answer the question!"
During this commotion, our main character's mind was elsewhere.
' I wonder.. Was his nose always like that?'
Gon smiled and decided to be the first one to answer the Captain's question, again.

"My dad is a hunter!, "
Upon hearing that,the captain frowned slightly.
"I left whale Island because I want to know why he wanted to be a hunter so much."
' whale Island... So these two are ging's son and daughter.. The day has finally come, huh?' The captain thought while looking at the twins.
I nodded then added after Gon, "And I want to become stronger. Strong enough to protect those around me."
' strong enough to beat ging's ass, send hisoka flying to another planet, make Sil-chan proud and... Save him... '
They looked at me with weird eyes. ' The hell?'
"like always, you're amazing, sis!"
"that's a nice goal, kid." The captain praised me.
"oi! You two! You're not supposed to answer his question!" Leorio yelled out.
"why?" Gon asked.
"Yeah, why?" I asked as well, acting innocent.
"I don't want to reveal why I'm here!" he answered us as he put his finger on Gon's forehead.
I slapped his hand away as I glared at him.
' I know that he means no harm but still.. It pisses me off. '
Before he could react, Kurapika cut in. "I agree with leorio."
Leorio gasped slightly and pointed his finger towards the Kurta boy.
' I swear you'll get that finger of yours cut off someday, eorio man'
Kurapika just ignored him and kept talking.
" one could simply dodge the question with a plausible lie. But I consider lying a sin and it's dishonorable, "
' that's my boi'
"that said, if I were to tell you the truth, I would be exposing my deepest secrets. This is why, I cannot provide an answer." he finished as he put a hand over his chest where his heart was located.

Leorio kept yelling as everyone was ignoring him.
' pfft, poor eorio man. But it's so funny. '
" in other words, you refuse to answer my question. "
' uh oh. I know where this is going.'
"Katzo." he called out one of the staff nearby.
"yes, Captain?" he responded.
"Tell the exam committee that we have two more dropouts."
"what?" Kurapika and Leorio asked at the same time with confused looks on their faces.
' teehee, you really thought I was like Gon and answered these questions because I wanted to? Pffft idiots!' I grinned.
' wait, I watched the anime so maybe I'm cheating..? Nah, not my fault or whatever, hehehe.'

Anchor Points: Age of Heroes
If you had a chance to reset history, knowing what we know now, would you take it? Six years after kicking an alien expeditionary force off the surface of the Earth back to their staging bases in the asteroid belt, and aided by stolen alien technology, the United Terran Republic Navy has finally achieved enough warship production to put the enemy on the run. Despite the facade of unity projected by the Earth's new federal government, deep cracks still lie under the surface that threaten the stability of world peace and the ability to protect humanity with a unified military response. Within this backdrop, the North American Union, now a mere state in the greater union, has created or reopened multiple off-books projects and black sites to house secrets both old and new that would be far too toxic or dangerous to be known to the wider world at such a delicate stage in world history. One of these secrets will draw Captain Henry O'Toole from his comfortable posting with the Jupiter Fleet straight into a world of conspiracies and secrets that could destroy the new, still fragile world order. Captain O'Toole will take command of mankind's first true starship with a secret mission that would be seen as treason by the new federal government. His orders are to use a prototype faster than light drive to travel through dimensions higher than spacetime and ride the expansion of the universe to create an off-books colony solely for the NAU. There are consequences for escaping time's jealous grasp, which instead position them to have a chance to change the course of human history. Fate has called the Indomitable Will and her crew into the Age of Heroes, will they be able to rise to the challenge?
