《Infected [killugon/killuaxgon]》Stay?...
Advertisement
At this point, we were more than halfway home. 'This has got to be the longest walk I've ever taken. The old man is almost screaming whenever he talks, if he keeps up we might have a problem.' And of course, the world just really liked to watch me suffer. A beast sprinted at us in a bee-line. I'm sure the TV guy explained what they were called, sprinters? No, runners? How creative.
Gon took a step back along with the others and gave me a look, signaling that he wanted me to kill this one. I rolled my eyes and didn't wait much longer to slice its throat as it was making many unpleasant noises which would have most likely alerted walkers in the area. Kurapika had his hand over Leorio's mouth, who looked pale as a ghost. It would not take a genius to figure out it was his first time seeing one of these beasts.
The two had looks of surprise and disgust on their faces, disgusted by the gruesome scene that played out in front of them, and surprised by the fact I had sliced through the skin with only my bare hand. Gon burst out laughing at their reaction though I could clearly see that he was clutching his stomach for a different reason. I chuckled slightly. I couldn't deny that it was definitely an amusing sight. After everyone regained the ability to walk straight, we were back on our way.
"I have a few questions about, what you did back there." Kurapika quietly said from beside me. "Save them for when we get to the place," I told him. He nodded understandingly.
As soon as we stepped inside the café, I was immediately bombarded with questions by the two. Gon smirked and pulled up a seat, resting his feet on the table. If I had known any better, I would have assumed this was the reason he made me kill the walker in the first place.
"How did you do the thing with your hand?" Kurapika inquires. I sharpen my hand and let Kurapika examine it, though there was really nothing interesting to look at. "I just change it?" I told him. "Another question, if you have a cut on your hand, and go to slice a walker's throat, would their blood enter the wound?" He asked with genuine curiosity. "I hadn't really considered that, but I assume once my hand is sharpened, it would be too tense for the cut to be open enough for the blood to enter my system. If I had a cut on my hand before it was sharpened, I'd need to wash the blood off before I soften it." I explain.

"How did you learn to do this? Was it something you were born with?" I hesitated to tell them the honest truth, but then again, who are they going to tell?
"My father taught me this technique for simple assassination training. Everyone in my family can do it." He blinked. "You are an assassin?" he asked me slowly. "Technically, I'm an ex-assassin. I quit when I was around 12 years old." Kurapika looked as if he was processing, while Leorio who was sitting next to Gon, had a face similar to earlier.
"I pointed a gun at you! You could have easily killed me if you'd been in a shitty mod!" Leorio exclaimed. Kurapika finally spoke after being silent for an extended period. "I guess your training and experience would prove useful in this situation." I only hummed back in response. "Would you both like to stay here overnight? It's getting pretty dark and I assumed you wouldn't want to go out at this time." Gon spoke. "Yes please, Gon. That would be very helpful." Leorio agreed.
The plan was for Kurapika and Leorio to sort it out in the living room while I and Gon were in his room with the door locked since we were still hesitant to trust the others completely. I called dibs on the bed as soon as the sleeping arrangements were settled, so while Gon laid a blanket on the floor, in the warm, cozy bed, I was getting comfy. And just to spite him, I made sure he was well aware of just how comfortable I was.
He laid on the rough, cold floor and threw his arm behind his head as a pillow. "This is like, the most comfortable thing I've ever slept on," I explained to him. I noticed he was giving me the stink eye, and I couldn't end it here. "it's almost like I'm lying on a cloud." He closed his eyes, probably trying to get some sleep and ignore me. I then raised my voice, digging my face into a pillow. "This is the softest thing-!" I was then cut off by someone jumping on the bed next to me and throwing me off, replacing my warm bed with the cold bed Gon made earlier.
I groaned loudly as Gon laughed and adjusted his position so he was now under the blanket. "Woah Killua, guess it's quite comfy up here." He smirked, closing his eyes. This was definitely not what I intended. Now I am cold and on the ground. I could sleep here, I guess, but it could use some adjustments. I'm sure Gon wouldn't mind if I borrowed a few things. Lifting myself off the ground, I peer over at Gon who is now passed out. It couldn't have been more than five minutes since he claimed the bed, and he is already knocked out?

I aggressively pulled the pillow he was using from under his head and threw it on the ground, ripped the blanket from on top of him, and neatly placed it on my floor bed. In return, he would merely snore. It appears that he is a deep sleeper. Either way, I will get him back for this.
I somehow managed to find a position on the floor that would allow me to sleep, and it was a terrible sleep at that.
I woke up earlier than the others and snuck into the small upstairs kitchen. I peeked around the kitchen wall into the living room and gagged at the sight. 'They are cuddling.' I opened a cabinet and grabbed two large pots.
Marching back into Gon's room, I stopped at the foot of the bed, feeling slightly guilty for what I was about to do, knowing that if it were to happen to me I would be incredibly angry. As I smashed the pans together, Gon sat up with wide eyes and became very alert as a result of the loud crashing sound.
He was still half asleep, and I took advantage of that. I grabbed his legs and dragged him out of the room and through the halls, as he clawed at the floor trying to break away. His screeching woke Kurapika and Leorio who jumped up from the couch quickly but sat back down once they saw the cause. I released Gon as we entered the kitchen, and before he could register what happened, I had drenched him with the ice water I had stored the night before.
"Rise and shine, sleeping beauty" I snickered at Gon, who was still on the floor. "Oh, good morning. It's been a very peaceful start of the day, don't you think?" He said in return, sarcasm lacing his voice.
Kurapika and Leorio were both watching us intently, glaring at our loud outburst. "Do you always wake up like that?" Leorio asks, letting out a large yawn. "Only after he steals the bed after I claim it." I respond, grinning. "Maybe you shouldn't have been bragging about it." Gon remarks. I rolled my eyes and flipped him off. "I was simply stating that the bed had been the comfiest I'd ever slept in. You took it a step too far. Therefore, I needed to get you back." I said with a weird accent that could have been a mixture of British and German.
Gon laughed and sat on the couch next to Kurapika, throwing a towel through his damp hair. "Do you two usually cuddle?" I asked, mainly letting them know they were caught in the act. Before they could let out a reply, Gon beat them to it. "They were? "Why didn't you take a picture or something? I would have wanted to see." He whined.
Kurapika and Leorio looked at each other before looking back at us. "We should have told you both earlier, but I and Kurapika are dating," Leorio said truthfully. "I ship it, honestly." Gon says while leaning back on the couch. A small blush covers their cheeks. "I'm surprised you're not disgusted, almost everyone in this area is homophobic," Leorio mentioned. "I like men, so what. No one can control their sexuality. Of course, I would support you guys." Gon tells them. I snap my head over to him. I'm surprised I didn't get dizzy. "Your gay?!" I almost shout. He looked at me with confusion. "Pretty much, I'm pansexual." He states.
'Well, that just confirmed that everyone in this house is homosexual.' I click my tongue. "What's your sexuality, Killua?" He asked, and I had to double-take. "Gon! That's not something you can just ask people--." Gon didn't seem to care about what I was saying and rolled his eyes. "I'm taking that as a, 'Yes, I'm very gay'." He said, standing. "Whatever," I mumble.
"Kurapika, Leorio, it's getting brighter outside, don't you think it's about time to take the food and get going?" Gon asked. "eh, that won't be necessary." Confusion washes over Gon's face as Leorio tells him this. "And why is that?" he asks. Leorio fell back onto the couch and grinned widely, pulling Kurapika into his arms. "Because we are staying here with you guys. If you let us, that is." He explained as if it was the most obvious thing.
Kurapika smacks his arm in embarrassment. "I think what he was trying to say, was that we thought it would be better to stay here with you both. We might benefit from conjoining our groups since it will be easier to go out and find food and items in town. In addition, it will be easier to fight larger herds of walkers." He convinces. Gon looked back at me, silently asking what my opinions were.
After getting a shrug in return, he sighs and gives in. "Yes, of course, we can work together." He tells the duo smiling then making his way down the hall. "I'll be getting changed."
