Killua remained in that spot patiently as he waited for his new captain to show up. Killua's eyebrows raised as about ten minutes later the tall thickly muscled male walked back over to the outside of the stadium with Asta's head firmly grasped in his fist. Struggling, trying to fight him off to no avail. They were followed by a man who was only a few centimeters shorter than killua, with shaggy brown hair, and another guy who was a few inches taller than him but whose face was reminiscent of a mime. Killua strolled over with his hands in his pockets. "Hey." He said simply. The captain grunted and let go of Asta's head, causing him to clutch his scalp and whine. "That hurt!"

"Finral, let's get going." The brown haired male sighed. "Alright, as you say captain Yami." with a wave of his hand, a portal appeared in front of them. "W-Woah that's cool!" Asta said, eyes shining as he sat up and stared in awe at the portal. Killua didn't wait for them, it was late and he'd been neglecting far too much sleep lately. As he emerged, there seemed to be a large building in front of him with many rooms. Before he could take in much of the scenery however, Asta came flying through the portal. He flew past Killua and landed face first in the dirt with a surprised yell. Killua resumed his walk forward, but Asta shoved ahead of him, swinging open the doors. "I'm the newest member of this squad! Fresh from Hage village, Asta-"

Asta's words were cut off as a massive fireball slammed into his face. Killua easily avoided it, watching in amusement as Asta flew backwards. What an idiot. "Well, this is us. The worst of the worst of the magic knight squads. Welcome, to the Black Bulls." Yami said, as he removed the cigarette from his lips to speak. Asta ran forward again, like an absolute dumbass. He ended up getting flung back once more. Killua watched the chaos going on around them, taking note of each member and what kind of magic they seemed to use. Asta tried to introduce himself again, and promptly got ignored. He watched for a few minutes as the squad members argued and eventually had enough.

Killua decided the best move would be to silence them, however before he could attempt to do so, Yami did. "Alright, I've had enough. QUIT BREAKING STUFF ALREADY!" He bellowed, slamming a fist into the wall and opening the front of the hideout even more. Killua couldn't help but wonder who was going to fix all of this. Once the air stopped ringing with the captain's voice, all of the squad members rushed over. "Captain!!" Killua watched as the group gathered around their leader, almost like they were vying for his attention.

Yami let out a chuckle. "Yeah yeah, I know you all missed me. Now shut up, will ya?" They each dropped obediently onto their knees. Is this normal? Killua was quite puzzled by the situation before him. Asta had been trapped under one of the larger males somehow, but Killua paid that no mind. "Quit messin around." Yami snapped.

After that situation was sorted out, Yami gestured to the two new recruits. "Now, as I was saying. These are two of our new members. Introduce yourself shrimp." Two of? Does that mean there's more? He thought. Asta introduced himself very loudly. "I'm Asta from Hage village! It's really nice to meet everyone!" One of the members frowned. "Hage? Ain't that out in the middle of nowhere?" Yami looked at him. "Your turn." All eyes turned on him, and he slid his hands into his pockets. I wasn't planning on my noble façade going on for this long "Killua." He said, simply. Finral looked a bit awkward. "That's...it?"

Killua looked narrow eyed at all the bulls. "I'm not impressed with the incompetence I saw today." he said, causing Asta to give him a confused look. "What do you mean?" Killua let out a soft sigh. "There were four people standing outside and not a single one of you noticed, even with a clear view of the mentioned people. What pray tell would've happened if those were intruders? You'd have been completely taken by surprise. Very disappointing."

"..."

There was an awkward beat of silence after he'd said those words. Just because you're at home base doesn't mean you're safe. Yami cleared his throat. "Finral, introduce everyone, will ya?" Finral nodded, then began to introduce everyone, making a very clear emphasis on the fact they were 'good people' for some reason. Except captain Yami. Killua yawned as Asta let out another yell, he was pretty worn out. "Do you ever shut up?" He said dryly, shooting a glare down at Asta. Asta hesitated. "S-sorry-"

Killua got bored of the conversation and simply walked away, using Zetsu to avoid attention. As expected, not a single one noticed his leave. Killua instead wandered the dark halls of the hideout. The halls winded and turned back on itself. As he was walking he sensed a presence and decided to follow it, his curiosity piqued. As he did so, he saw a girl. She had long silver hair pulled into two ponytails, and she was looking down at a commotion below outside of the bulls hideout. Hm...

Killua walked over beside her and leaned against the balcony. "And you are?" The girl stiffened slightly, eyes going wide at the unexpected appearance. "U-uh- who are you?" Killua glanced her up and down. "The name's Killua." The silver haired female frowned. "No last name?" Killua let out a soft chuckle. "Ah, I don't find it worth mentioning. My family's sort of well known but they aren't that famous, nothing worthy of flaunting really. Not like yours." In truth Killua had had no idea who this girl was, however he knew by the way she carried herself that she was most likely some sort of noble or royal. She let out a huff, flicking back one of her ponytails. "Noelle Silva."

Killua's eyebrows raised. "Silva? That's quite a title indeed." Of course it had to be my dad's name, what are the chances. He grumbled internally. I'll have to look up who this 'Silva family' is later. However important they may be, Killua had a feeling befriending Noelle would be a good idea. Noelle gave him a slightly confused look, but she quickly removed it from her face as her eyes were drawn below once more. Killua followed her gaze, seeing Asta and the rest of the squad chatting and having fun. "So rowdy." Killua commented, with a fed up huff. "Insects.." Noelle muttered, with another flip of her hair. This'll be fun. He thought, sarcastically.
