Chapter 2- DSYDIC

<Unknown Location, Underground Arena>

"At least tell me the fight you have for today is somewhat of a challenge" said a white haired kid with a lazy look on his face

Beside him stood a middle aged man in a purple pair of dress pants with a matching blazer who laughed obviously used to his companions attitude "This one is pretty good. Usually you are expected to win so I can't make as much with the betting, but it seems like they are pretty confident this time" he spoke as they made their way into the arena.

Both were naturally wearing masks as the white haired boy stopped outside the ring. This was of course Killua, and for the past few months he had been participating in these illegal fight clubs as a way to make quick cash.

Using his skills, it wasn't too difficult to find connections in the underground world, and he settled on Giran who was well known in the underground world. Money made from bets was split 60-40 going his way, so it wasn't that big a deal.

The only name he went by was "Hit man" for obvious reasons

"I suppose you wouldn't happen to know my opponent's abilities" killua asked dryly

"They have been withholding that information, since I never gave anything on yours" he responded "Not that I know what it is in the first place" Giran said with a small laugh looking inquiringly towards the boy

"And you don't need to know either" Killua lazily said obviously used to this

"Very well, I'll find it out eventually" Giran playfully said as Killua only rolled his eyes

'Seriously thought, I even re-watched all the videos, but they haven't even given me a hint at what your true quirk is" he said a bit annoyed

"Deal with it"

"But if I knew what it was, I would be able to set up fights that complement your abilities well so you don't get set up with a bad matchup" he protested and Killua only looked at him annoyed "I haven't lost yet, and I don't plan to"

"You got to have some weakness" he complained and Killua decided to answer truthfully for once

"Mental attacks would be a bit troublesome" he said honestly since there were a few he researched online that might give him trouble 'although I'd have more resistance and experience with things like mind control than most' he thought darkly remembering events of the past, but he kept that to himself

"People with mental abilities like that typically don't compete in these types of fights, but you should probably be prepared anyway. It would be annoying if you died and I lost a good source of Income" Giran said indifferently because at the end of the day, it was just a business deal.

Killua was brought out of his thoughts by a familiar aura signature. He audibly groaned "shes here" he muttered as Giran looked at him with a little smirk "Isn't it nice to be young" he said poking the boy who turned on him with a deathly glare "Just a creepy stalker that I can't get rid of" he huffed annoyed

Toga Himiko, ever since he had beaten her in a fight, she had been obsessed with him showing up at every one of his fights. He sensed the familiar aura signature in the crowd, but much to his annoyance he couldn't tell where she was due to her strange quirk masking her aura and identity

He felt a migraine coming as he remembered she was the only one besides Giran who knew his true identity...

___________________________

Killua walked home after another easy fight. It had simply been some musclehead who immediately laughed upon seeing Killua calling him a "little boy". Killua laughed along with him, and he was still laughing..... After he ripped his heart out of course.

He was long since used to taunts such as that and in fact, he preferred it that way. Having the opponent underestimate you like that only made it easier.

He didn't like to kill as much anymore, especially the innocent, but the man was a known rapist so that's practically a freebie... He was far from considering himself a good person, but hearing of the man's vile habits disgusted him. 'I guess I should thank Gon for that change' he thought staring at his hand in a mute silence remembering the friend who had brought him out of the darkness. In the past, he would have cared less about a detail like that, but he was honestly happy for the change

He was brought out of his thoughts as he felt a familiar aura nearby that made him frown. "I made sure no one from the place followed me" he thought as he checked around warily. He hadn't even noticed it until they had tailed him for a while which was quite annoying.

Whoever was tailing him was very good at hiding their aura and he couldn't recognize anyone nearby.

Having enough of these games, he made his way into a small alleyway between buildings, before leaping up onto a small balcony as he used Zetsu to completely erase his presence. While people can not see Nen in this world, people with sharp perception can almost sense presence. Zetsu makes him almost invisible like an insignificant part of the world around him causing peoples eyes and senses to naturally ignore him.

Sure enough, a middle aged lady with a handbag walked into the alley. 'she looked like she was more prepared to go shopping, than fight' he thought but he kept up his guard narrowing his eyes as she saw her pull out a familiar looking knife

"Why does she have that" he muttered briefly recalling it as a weapon he had seen in an earlier fight

Like a wraith, he leapt down onto the ground a few feet behind her without any sound as the lady obliviously stood there looking deeper into the alleyway as if something was hiding in there.

"Looking for me" he whispered in her ear as she reacted surprisingly fast swinging the sharp silver blade in a powerful backhand strike whirling towards him with a speed imperceptible to the normal eye.

As fast as it was, to Killua it looked to be in slow motion as he simply squatted down the blade passing harmlessly above his head "That's not a very nice thing to do" he said with a smirk sweeping her legs out from underneath her with a low leg sweep kick. Before she could even hit the floor, he grabbed her throat slamming her into the ground with such force that it caused the ground to shake a bit as the woman immediately began clutching her neck as she frantically struggled.

"Now," Killlua seemed to transform into a bloodthirsty demon as he focused all his killing intent on her. She immediately stopped moving looking at him blank expression which he guessed to be shock "You are going to cooperate, and maybe you will die quickly" he said with an emotionless face his previously mocking eyes turning completely blank as he went into interrogation mode

Instead of looking frightened however, he looked on in surprise as a crazy smile went to her face "I didn't know you were so... forceful" she said with a coy smile struggling to talk as Killua deadpanned before slamming her back into the ground

"Enough games, who are you" he growled bringing a sharp finger nail to her neck faintly drawing blood

*Cough the middle aged woman melted away revealing.... "Toga?" he looked on in surprise and annoyance at the blond girl in a schoolgirl uniform, he really couldn't underestimate the inhabitants of this world. 'The sheer number and types of quirks made anything possible even if most of them are generally weak' he thought loosening his hand enough to let her talk

"Geeze, blood is no fun when it's my own" with a pouting face sensually stroking her finger against a cut on her arm before looking up at him "Wow you are actually the same age as me, that is so interesting!" Toga said as a crazy smile danced across her face

"Why did you follow me" he said not in the mood to deal with her weird behavior

"I was mad of course, after you beat me, my sponsor dropped me. I lost my way to make money" she pouted with a somewhat cute expression that was immediately disrupted by her next words "But your reeaaaally strong, so I promise not to give away your identity if you let me cut you up" she said licking her lips at the thought of Killua bleeding

*Crash *Cough *Splutter Killua once again picked her up slamming her against the wall choking her with one hand as he looked at her with cold remorseless eyes "I have a different idea, How about I just kill you instead" Killua uttered enveloping her in his bloodlust

As Toga looked into those cold emotionless eyes, she fully believed him. That terrifying expression and cold eyes told her all she needed to know. He would not hesitate to kill her. That hand currently around her neck choking her had been used to slaughter thousands and she was next...

Fear seeped into every corner of her being as she staring at the assassin

Cold, Terrifying, looking at her like she was a piece of trash

'So Fucking Hot' she unconsciously thought rubbing her legs together

He released her throat causing her to immediately gasp in pleasure as she fell to the ground

She looked at him, and his face was filled with disdain "If it was a few years ago, I would have just killed you to save the trouble, but I guess many people who I used to try to kill me, became my friend, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt he said with disinterest studying his fingernails coated with blood flicking it to clean it off.

"If you tell anyone my name or what I look like.... there is not a word in existence to describe how painful your death would be" he spoke coldly walking out of the alleyway. His emotionless expression quickly becoming one of annoyance as he walked back into the open street "I've gone soft" he observed walking back to his apartment with a mix of self disdain and conflict in his mind as he put the events behind him.

Unknown to him, behind his back the blond girl continued to sit there with a happy expression as she rubbed her throat. A blush perceded her entire face as she fidgeted "Killua huh? I wont tell anyone" she muttered with a dreamy expression that became determined "But I won't give up on cutting you" she said resolutely

_______________________________

At remembrance of that event, Killua sighed such a crazy girl and she continued showing up to every fight. "At least held true to her word, and hasn't told anyone, although I could do without the assassination attempts every day" he thought remembering how the girl had made it her lifelong goal to make him bleed, but she hadn't gotten any closer than the first attempt" he thought

He looked up sighing as he saw a business man jump down from the stands above bringing a knife in a downward slash.

He only leaned to the side letting the knife miss him by a narrow fraction as he threw the man to the floor. It melted away revealing the familiar girl as she looked at him with a pout "How do you always know it's me?" Toga said sitting on the ground like a scolded child as if she hadn't just attempted murder

Killua's eyebrow twitched in annoyance "Can you not do that?"

She looked at him with a red blush creeping up her face "I just want to see you bleed... It would be so awesome...." Toga said a bit sadly as if Killua was being a bully

To his side Giran began laughing so hard that he struggled to stay on his feet as he leaned against the wall for support. "Good luck with that one!" he said and Killua could still here his loud obnoxious laughter even after he left to go to the seating area.

"So annoying...." he muttered walking past Toga who seemed to be lost in thought as she dreamily stared at the wall he heard her faintly mutter something about blood, and he quickly made his way over to the arena before he had to deal with any more weirdness with the girl.

If he had to be honest, he did feel a bit bad for her. Her quirk pretty much made it impossible for her to fit into society since she was like that. Even if he did sympathize with her a little bit, having to deal with her was a whole other story.

He put those thoughts to the back of his mind though. 'Better prepare for the next match' he thought since he had long since fixed his problem with overconfidence he originally had upon arriving in this new world.. While he had to guess he was outright stronger than everyone, some people had strange abilities that he had to watch out for.

Thoughts? I’m pretty busy during the week so I’m will probably post 2-3 through weekdays while I stock up on weekends.
