Killua made his way into the arena looking upon his opponent. Tall and lanky, the man wore a metallic face covering that left his exposed mouth open as he grinned towards the boy "You know, I was really excited to fight you" he spoke with crooked teeth looking towards Killua with this weird look in his eyes

He deigned to answer instead looking out towards the cheering crowd that surrounded the area. He saw Toga Himiko standing near Giran jumping up and down as she cheered "Make him bleed" he faintly heard as he looked away in annoyance back towards his opponent

The man started to get irritated that Killua was ignoring him "Do you know why I wanted to fight you so bad?" the creepy guy said looking at Killua with a grin

"Why" Killua finally responded annoyed at all the talking

"When I heard I could fight a kid, I was so overjoyed" he said gleefully as Killua felt his eyebrow twitch "Hisoka is that you" he muttered under his breath with a shudder before looking back towards the guy with annoyance 'why can't anyone I fight be normal' he thought as the man continued talking

"You know, my sponsor was quite annoyed that you took out his last fighter, and he gave me full permission to experience what it's like when the kids actually fight back" he said licking his lips

Before they could speak anymore, the announcer began "In one corner, we have the invincible 'Hit Man' who has yet to be defeated. In the other, we have a villain responsible for the recent rape and murder of multiple children calling himself "The Eduacator the announcer spoke causing many to react with disgust. Others looked indifferent to this revelation not fazed at all by such a thing.

A third party in the group was instead excited hoping to see a good match since 'Hitman ended most of his fights effortlessly in a short time.

Meanwhile, Killua's gaze hardened after hearing this already mentally deciding this would be one of the opponents he would kill. He also became very cautious since his quirk had something to do with kidnapping and murdering those children, and he still had no idea what it was.

If it was some kind of mental ability, he would have to be quite cautious to avoid it. One hand instinctively went against the metal tool at his waist, but he decided he would only use it if he really needed it.

"Are Both Sides Ready? Match Begin!" the announcer spoke as neither side moved

Instead of speaking, the man looked at him with a smile "Such a huge crowd gets to witness. Doesn't that make you embarrassed at all" the man said coyly looking around as if he was shy

"Not particularly" Killua spoke coldly at the man watching cautiously for any movement since he still didn't know how this man's quirk worked. His fingernails sharpened into blades in preparation as he stood there in a low stance.

"Wow so brave, letting so many witness our union" he said lustfully looking Killua over as he licked his lips "By the way, ever since you entered this room, I have been spreading sleeping agents around the room. You should be feeling pretty sleepy" he spoke with a psychotic grin as he took a few steps closer

"My favorite part is the struggle they make when they realize they are falling asleep. The panic on their face when they realize what will happen if they do fall victim to their dreams" the man said excitedly with a zealous look in his eyes, but he was broken out of his thoughts by the clear sound of laughter.

He turned to face the boy who instead of looking sleepy or terrified, simply laughed as if he had just heard the funniest thing in the world

"I was so cautious, but it turns out your ability was only poison" the boy said stretching his arms out as if he could finally relax which infuriated the man, yet he also felt a sense of dread...

"So what if you have some sort of resistance? Try to resist this!" the man spoke as a toxic cloud spewed from his mouth moving towards Killua

The assassin only looked at it with amusement as he touched the gas 'much less getting through my Ten defenses, even if I breathed it in, I would be completely fine' he thought examining the structure as he looked at the man with an almost pitying expression

"You know something?" he spoke as the man looked at him with confuscion

I try not to kill people" he spoke as the gas surrounded him "In fact, I even made many standards" he spoke calmly picking a pebble off the ground. Using 'Shu' to infuse it with Nen, the hidden power on the stone was completely invisible to everyone else as the man looked at him confused

"Luckily," he said slowly turning around "You fit all of them" Killua spoke coldly making a flicking gesture with the rock

The man felt something faintly hit his chest as he looked towards Killua wondering what had happened. His body began to grow cold, and he looked around the room wondering why it had gotten so chilly all of the sudden. He felt something wet on his chest "Am I sweating" he muttered bringing his finger to his chest and bringing it away only to look on in horror as his entire finger was covered in blood.

His senses dulled and turned numb as if his entire body was on novacaine He faintly looked up towards the boy who had somehow arrived in front of him "This is way too quick of a death for someone like you, but it'll have to do. Goodbye" Killua spoke coldly before the entire room seemed to spin

The man wondered why he was spinning so much all the sudden, but he felt tired so he closed his eyes to rest. Even in his dying moment, his brain failed to comprehend what had happened to him, and the crowd went into a muted silence as they watched the decapitated head hit the floor with a muted thunk.

Killua turned towards the man on the podium above causing the man to flinch at when their eyes met

"Hey Announcer, do I win?" he asked emotionlessly as the man gulped in fear.

After a few seconds of tension, he picked up the microphone clearing his fear as he used his normal voice

"Amazing, he was instantly taken out with nothing but a pebble. Hitman continues to be undefeated taking out opponent after opponent with ease. Can anyone take this terrifying monster on!" he yelled as the spectators were similarily broken out of their muted silence as they cheered.

"Hey.... nice fight" Giran spoke walking with a somewhat nervous expression watching the unchanging emotionless face of Killua after he had killed the man

"What even is your quirk?" he muttered in shock "You just killed him with a pebble..."

"Figure it out on your own" Killua smirked

"By the way, How much did we make?"

"A good bit" he answered cheerful at the mention of money "Many people who knew his quirk thought he would be able to poison you, so we made quite a lot with the betting"

"Just Wire my share to me later" Killua said lazily "Didn't feel like dragging out the fight this time, hope you don't mind" he spoke sarcastically causing Giran to look at him annoyed

"Yeah, you probably scared everyone away with that match" he said irritated 'and me too a bit' he thought as he looked at him "Your a scary kid you know that?"

Before he could say anything else, Toga ran around the corner excitedly "That was like super cool you know" she said zealousy "but you could have at least let him cut you" she said with a pout causing Killua to roll his eyes

"I'm surprised you are still here, I thought you would be hiding somewhere along my path home waiting to ambush me posing as a random person" he said as the girl had the decency to look embarrassed "If you would just bleed a little, I wouldn't have to go through all the trouble" the blond said in a exasperated manner as if it was his fault

*Sigh "Whatever, I'm leaving" he spoke walking out

He looked back annoyed to see Toga following him, but she wasn't even trying to be discreet as she openly walked behind him. Killua went through his usual rituals of finding an abandoned place before taking off his mask, but he didn't even bother to throw her off since she knew who he was anyway.

Walking all the way to his apartment he finally turned around

"Do you need something?"he bluntly said as she walked into view

She ignored the question skipping over happily "What are you planning on doing?

"Bit of training before I go to bed" he answered debating whether or not he should knock her out and leave her unconscious in an alleyway somewhere. If she hadn't already known where he lived, he wouldn't have led her here

"Can I go with you?" Toga said in an excited voice causing Killua to look at her with a blank look

"And let you stab me?"

*Gasp "How did you know?" she looked surprised as her plan was seen through

"..."

"Why do you want to see me bleed so much" he asked in annoyance causing a blush to fill her face

"B-Because I like you" she said clutching the corners of her skirt "And you would look so much cooler if you were bleeding" she finished looking at Killua expectantly

"Still not letting you stab me" he said nonchalantly "Anyways if that is all, I'm going to go take a shower." he said turning to leave

"Wait, do you have an extra room? I need somewhere to stay" she pleaded

'Oh right, she didn't have a source of income after her sponsor dropped her' Killua remembered about what she had said previously

'Still, I'm not going to let this psycho into my house' he thought looking back at her with annoyed expression "I'm not going to let you inside when you are just going to try to cut me up in my sleep, don't you have anyone else you can stay with like maybe family members?"

Her cheery expression immediately turned dark as she looked at the floor "Don't mention them" she spoke with venom causing Killua to realize that wasn't an easy topic for her.

'I could at least sympathize with her on that' he thought his own expression turning a bit dark remembering his own twisted family.

This was the gloomiest he had ever seen her. Her fists were clenched around the hem of her skirt as her eyes stared at the ground as if she was remembering something unpleasant.

*Sigh "I'll let you stay in the spare room, but you have to swear to me that you won't attack me" he spoke in an exasperated manner as she immediately frowned at that extra rule "But-" he cut her off "No, if you attack me inside your going back on the streets" he threatened while he internally beat himself up 'Why am I even doing this' he thought, am I turning into a masochist? Whatever, it doesn't matter anyway...

"Hmm If I can't even attack- Wait you said inside, so I can still attack you outside correct?" she said excitably as if she had just found a major loophole

Killlua's eyebrow twitched This girl.....

"Fine whatever, need something to keep my senses sharp" trying to find a reason to justify letting this psychopath in his home

"Yayyy let me hug you" she jumped out at him with one arm outstretched, but her other hand was suspiciously behind her back

*Sigh

Killua grabbed her wrist with his left hand. Using her momentum, he threw her to the ground

*Crash

"Owe you didn't have to be so harsh" she muttered rubbing her butt

"... you just tried to stab me?"

"Yeah but it's not fun when it hurts me" she complained ignoring the double standard in her words

"Can you carry me, I can't walk" she said pleadingly waiting for him to move closer

*Sigh

*Crash

"Owwwwww"

'I'm going to regret this decision...'
