Chapter I
Hotel X Suspicious X Reunion

Yorknew City

Killua Zoldyck waited with Alluka and Gon for Leorio and Kurapika to arrive. He had to be very specific in convincing Alluka/Nanika not to make requests of any of them. He only hoped she would follow instructions. Gon was getting impatient and Killua was beginning to wonder where they were.

"Where are they?" Gon wondered, "They said they should have been here by now."

"I want to meet them, big brother," Alluka told him, resting her head on his shoulder.

Killua smiled at her, "You will Alluka," He looked around, Leorio's expected to be late but where was Kurapika?

A familiar voice shouted to them, "Gon! Killua!" They turned to see Leorio running towards them, waving a briefcase in the air.

Gon hopped off the park bench and waved. "Hey there, Leorio! Over here!" Leorio ran up to him and hugged him. He lifted him off the ground and looked at him. Putting him down again, he said, "Man, I hate to admit it but I missed you guys. Hey there, Killua."

"Yo," he waved. Alluka was sitting up now, a curious look on her face.

"You know, I keep being reminded of when you were MIA. Your dad was a jerk though. Didn't even visit you once," Leorio remembered.

"He's not that bad, Leorio," Gon defended, "I think he's pretty cool."

"Yeah, well, the entire audience was just waiting until you left to attack that guy," Leorio pointed out, "Who's that?"

"Oh, this is Killua's younger brother, Alluka," Gon told him.

"Mo-ron, she's a girl!" Killua corrected. (since none of the other Zoldycks are in sight, I'm just going to say "she" seeing as Killua's the only one here. If another Zoldyck is there, I'll say "he" for Alluka.)

"Well, which is it?" Leorio asked, confused. Gon shrugged.

Alluka stood up, "Hello! I'm Alluka!"

"Uhh, nice to meet you Alluka. I'm Leorio. Hey have you guys seen Kurapika?" he asked them.

"We thought you might have seen him," Killua answered.

"No. Well, that's him for you. He probably got sidetracked looking for the eyes of his people. We should go."

"No. I trust Kurapika. He'll be here! I know it!" Gon said.

"If you think so Gon," Killua said. Kurapika arrived right when he said that.

"Hey Gon, Killua," he said.

"Kurapika!" Gon said, waving.

"Hey there," Killua chuckled.

"I am right here, you know," Leorio grumbled.

"Sorry, Leorio," Kurapika said.

"We thought you'd forgotten. Of course, it was Gon over there who decided to wait," Killua said. Gon just laughed sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck.

"I always knew you were gonna come, Kurapika," Leorio lied.

"Yeah right. You were the one saying we should leave him!" Killua said.

"Yeah, well, I figured he would show up sometime," he said, pushing up his glasses.

"I got...held up at the airport. Sorry, I couldn't be here sooner," Kurapika explained, "Hey Killua, who's that next to you?"

"That's Killua's brother, Alluka," Gon answered.

"Fo-ol! I told you... she's a girl!" Killua corrected.

"I thought all of the Zoldyck children were boys?" Kurapika wondered as Gon shrugged. "So what did you want to do Gon?"

"To be honest, I didn't think of that," he revealed, scratching his chin.

"What?! You mean to tell me, you invited us here and didn't even think of what you were going to do, Gon?" Killua shouted in disbelief.

Gon nodded, "Yeah, that's it."

"I wonder about you, Gon," Killua sighed.

"Did you think any of this through, Gon?" Leorio asked.

"Actually I kinda thought you would know what to do," Gon said.

"Well, for now, let's look around town for a hotel room. We'll need a place to stay while we're here," Kurapika suggested.

"Okay then, let's go," Killua said, getting off of the bench. "Where to first?"

"We should check the Hunter website, they should have a list of some hotels around here," Gon suggested.

"Is that your answer for everything?" Killua spoke.

"I just feel like everything we need should be there," he answered.

***

"Hey, Gon! Find anywhere?" Killua shouted. He was looking at a computer while Alluka searched for hotels nearby.

"There are some here. But they're pretty expensive. What about you two?" Gon asked.

"Nah, same here. Alluka's still looking though," Killua answered.

"Hey, Killua. Can you ask Kurapika and Leorio? They're all the way over there," Gon said.

"Yeah sure," he was about to go when he bumped into Leorio. "Watch it old man!"

"I am not old... to most people I'm a young person!" Leorio snapped, a vein pulsing in his head.

"Sorry pops," Killua said, walking over to Kurapika.

Leorio growled and walked towards where Gon and Alluka were, "Hey! Find anything you two?"

"Still looking!" Alluka said, raising a finger in the air.

"It's hopeless. These places are all expensive," Gon said as he scrolled down.

"What about your hunter license? Surely you have some money?" Leorio suggested.

"Well... about that..." Gon said sheepishly.

"What is it?" he prompted.

"I'm kinda... in a bit of debt, you see."

"Wha... Why?"

"Remember all those times I borrowed... When we were searching for Greed Island to find Ging?"

"Yeah... and?"

"I really don't have all the money to pay them back. And Ging says that he won't give me because I need to pay them back myself," Gon explained.

"How did I know this would happen?" Leorio said, facepalming.

"But it's okay. I have you, Killua and Kurapika to ask," he smiled pleadingly.

"Okay, I'm out of the question. Killua might be able to but Kurapika's pretty loaded. You should ask them," Leorio said.

"No way, Leorio," Kurapika said, frightening him, "I need this money for when I am retrieving the eyes of my people."

"Oh, Kurapika! I'm not trying to stop you from finding them- I just mean that I need my money for- uh- medical stuff," Leorio said nervously. Kurapika raised an eyebrow at him, "What about Killua?"

"I need it," Killua answered vaguely.

"For what?" both of them asked.

"For something important," he said.

"Which is?" Kurapika asked.

"Se-cr-et!"

Leorio bent down to Alluka and asked her, "Hey Alluka, you must know Killua pretty well, right?"

Alluka looked up from the computer at him, "Uh huh," she nodded.

"Don't tell him!" Killua said covering Leorio's mouth.

Leorio pried off his hands, "What does he want money for?"

Alluka turned around her chair, "Oh that's easy! Big Brother likes chocolate balls!" she smiled.

"Alluka... Why'd you tell him?!" Killua groaned.

"Are you mad, brother?" she asked.

Killua shook his head, "No-"

"-Chocolate balls?! That's what's so important?!" Leorio shouted. Alluka covered her ears and Killua sweatdropped.

"Hey! I've been wanting some! I haven't had any since I was at the Heavens Arena!" he shouted.

"Can't you go without?! Gon's more important than some balls of chocolate-!"

"-Nothing is more important than chocolate balls! And if he's so important why don't you pay?!"

"I would but I need the money!"

"Well, so do I!"

Gon, Kurapika, and Alluka just watched as they went back and forth. "They don't even cost that much for a pack!"

"I'm not buying a pack, I'm buying a thousand!"

"You can live!"

"No! I can't!"

"He's your best friend!"

"He's your friend too!"

"Just pay for him!"

"Fine, I will!" Killua relented, "Bothersome old man...."

"I am not old!" Leorio snapped, breathing heavily. Steam was coming out of his ears and his face was red.

"Well, now we know who's paying for Gon. Did you find anything?" Kurapika spoke up.

"No fair. Why do I have to pay for three people?" Killua grumbled.

"These are all very costly," Kurapika said as Gon scrolled down his list.

Alluka jumped up. "I found it!"

All four of them looked at her, "You did?"

"Look, Big Brother!"

They all looked. "Alluka, that's a rundown cabin on a beach," Killua announced.

"Really? I've been locked up so long, I thought it was what you're looking for," she said. They fell on the ground.

"I think I have found a good one and it has pretty good service. It isn't all that expensive though," Kurapika said.

"Wait! I think I have one!" Alluka shouted.

Killua looked, "Alluka, that's a castle and it's in a totally different continent."

"Oh. I thought I had it this time," she sighed.

"Anyways, it's called the Winterbank Hotel. Look it up," Kurapika told Gon. He typed it in and smiled.

"Kurapika this is great! How did you find it?" Gon said.

"I remember passing it when I was a bodyguard of Neon Nostrade. Apparently, it's a medium costing hotel, that has almost the same service as an expensive one," Kurapika explained.

"200000 jenny! But that means I'll have to pay 600000 jenny! What about my chocolate balls?" Killua complained.

"You'll live," Leorio said.

"Well, it's settled. We're staying here!" Gon said, pointing to the picture of the hotel.

***

They stood in the lobby of the hotel as the receptionist calculated the fee. She turned around and looked at them. "That'll be one million jenny in total."

"I'm paying for myself and so is he," Kurapika said, pointing at Leorio who was ogling over the girl. "He's paying for all three of them." He pointed to Killua who looked ready to burst.

"Um, are you alright with this, sir?" she asked Killua. On her name tag, it said that her name was Miyuki Tsukumo.

"Yeah. I guess I have no choice. They're forcing me to," he answered.

She swiped Kurapika's hunter license and then Leorio's license. "I'm sorry I can't lower the price. Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Well, you see I'm new to this whole Hunter business. So do you think you could show me?" Killua lied.

"Sure. But first," she turned to Leorio, "Hey Grandpa!"

"Grandpa?" Leorio exclaimed in shock. Kurapika started laughing.

"Yeah, you! Why don't you pay for one of them? Two hundred thousand jenny! Pay up!" she shouted over the desk.

"Why can't Kurapika do it?"

"Says here he's just nineteen. Not technically an adult. You, however, are one, so I can't let this poor kid have to pay for all of them!" Killua smirked.

"Uh, Killua! Tell her you're fine with it! Please!" Leorio freaked out.

"I'm fine with it," he said, smirking.

"Oh don't give me that! You told him to say that! Now pay up before I hit you with my reservation book!" she ordered.

***

Leorio had at least three large bumps on his head as he took his license. Kurapika and Gon were trying hard not to laugh. Killua was smirking, which changed into a sad look every time she turned around. "Thank you for your time," she said, giving them four keys. They turned and walked.

"Dumb receptionist...Old? I'm younger than you people give me credit for..." Leorio grumbled when she was out of sight.

"You should have known better than to anger her," Kurapika said.

"She was the one who hit me!"

Killua smirked at Gon, "And that's how you do it. My brother, Illumi, taught me how to manipulate someone without actually being a manipulator."

"Killua you're awesome!" Gon said, "Can you teach me?"

"Se-cr-et. Zoldyck family technique. Helps in the assassin business when you need more info," Killua explained.

"That receptionist lady said that they have a vending machine. I want to see if they have any chocolate balls. Alluka, stay with Gon. And don't ask for anything, got it?" he ordered.

If Alluka were to make a request while I'm gone, that would be catastrophic. These three don't know all the rules. Just that she healed Gon and the basics of her power, he thought.

"Okay, brother," Alluka acknowledged and Killua separated from the group

He walked down the corridor and popped two jenny in a vending machine. Two packs of chocolate balls fell in the bottom and he reached in and took out the two packs. He was turning around when he crashed into someone. He fell backwards and the packs fell on the floor.

"Oww, watch it!" the person said.

Before him was a brown haired girl about one year younger than him. She was wearing a black and purple outfit. She rubbed her head and glared at him. Her eyes were an electric green underneath her bangs. She seemed familiar somehow.

"You're the one who bumped into me," Killua pointed out.

"I was walking and you were in my way," the girl glared. She was actually sort of pretty.

"This is a vending machine! You should have been looking where you were going!" Killua snapped.

"I was occupied! Who even puts a vending machine in a walkway?!" she snapped.

"Obviously the people here do!" Killua said. They looked at each other and laughed.

The girl stood up. "Sorry about that. I was just releasing some stress from a problem I'm having."

"It's cool. What's your name?" Killua asked, standing.

She hesitated, "S... Samaria, you are?"

"Killua. Cool outfit you have there," he complimented.

She flushed and looked at the ground, "Thanks," she noticed something and picked it up. "This is yours?"

"Yeah, thanks," he took it from her.

"Welcome... Um, what is it?" she asked.

Killua froze while picking up the other pack and it dropped to the ground.

He stood up.

"You don't know what it is?"

"Sorry. I've been cooped up at home a lot, so I'm sort of touring the world with my brothers," she said.

"I don't know how to explain it to you. They're chocolate balls. The best snack in the world. Try one," he pressed giving her the bag.

"I- I can't. I'm pretty busy and I need to find my brothers," she tried to hand him it back.

"I insist," he pushed back her hand back.

"Fine," she looked behind him. An irk mark appeared on her head, she snapped closing her eyes. "Dense twits! Can't I travel anywhere without you two causing problems?"

Killua turned around. There was a set of twins who were pranking people by using Zetsu. They kept knocking on doors and turning invisible. Killua was stunned. The kids had to be at least nine and he only learned Zetsu at thirteen and even then he hadn't fully mastered it.

"Are you two trying to get us found? That isn't normal!" she turned to Killua. "Sorry, can I try it later?"

"Nah, keep it. I have another anyway," Killua answered.

He was beginning to wonder who this girl was.

"If you say so," she marched over to the disappearing twins and knocked them both on the head simultaneously.

"Owwww!" they both rubbed their heads. "Why'd ya do that for sis?"

"What point of incognito don't you two understand? You're jeopardizing my investigation!" she snapped.

Investigation? Killua wondered.

"But we were invisible!" the one in the black training suit said.

"Baka!" she hit them on the head again.

"I didn't say anything!!!" the one in the white training suit said.

"You were thinking it too! You're twins! Now let's go!" she pulled the two along and entered the elevator.

The door closed behind them.

Well, that was strange... and suspicious. Why would she be doing an investigation? And how do they know Zetsu? Killua thought as he picked up the pack on the ground.

He walked in the direction of Gon and the others.

What's wrong with me today? I can't believe I gave my other pack of chocolate balls to a girl. He walked into another elevator and went upstairs.
