Normal Family

On top of a large mountain, a mansion stood alone like an island inside a maid rushed around the room with towels and medical supplies. On the bed was a woman clearly pregnant looked like she was sleeping next to her stood a muscular man with long white hair and piercing blue eyes, " Dear do you think the heir will be born. " Smiling the man nodded, " Dad said that he sensed Nen from your stomach when you were only six months in. " Their conversation stopped as the maid stepped forward, " Mistress the contractions should start any minutes now can we begin. " The woman nodded as the maid got rid of the blankets covering the woman legs and privates, normally births were a chaotic affair lasting several hours. Anyone watching would expect the same, but once the woman propped her legs up all she did was smile as her contractions started.

Only a few minutes later the maid was holding two wrapped bundles, " Congratulations, two very healthy boys " Stepping out of bed the woman walked forward holding her arms out wanting to hold her babies, handing them over the maid bowed before she left the room. Smiling down the woman looked down at her children, one had long black hair with large black pupils while the other had the same hair and eyes of his father.

Looking over his wife's shoulder the man smiled when he saw the white hair of the older twin, wanting to test something the man covered one of his fingers in Nen before creating a small dragon and made it fly through the room. While the black-haired baby didn't react the older twins blue eyes followed the dragon through the airs as his arms flailed try to grab the conjuration. The woman looked back at her husband, " So Dad was right, the boy can use or at least sense Nen he will surely surpass the both of us. " Brushing back the baby's hair the woman smiled, " His name will be Leon, and his younger brother is Illumi. "

- 3 Year Later-

In a forest a young boy with white hair ran through the forest, behind him there was a giant toad-like monster using its tongue to try and catch the boy. Without looking behind him the boy was able to avoid the long appendage each time, the look on his face only held boredom like he was taking a stroll. Seeing it's efforts weren't working the frog's mouth bulged before it spat out a large glob of green slime, just before the slime touched him the boy's figure blurred before he disappeared. Looking around confused the frog croaked before it started to hop away.

On a tree branch above the white-haired boy sighed, ' I still don't understand why father won't let me take my first job. ' Climbing up the tree the boy looked around before he started to run through the treetops, in a few minutes the boy stopped in a clearing. Looking around the boy sat on the ground before taking out a Rubix cube several with nearly 200 small multicolored cubes on each side. Lost in his own world the boy started to solve the puzzle. His focus was broken when someone walked into the clearing, " Illumi what took you so long, you know I hate when someone messes with my schedule. "

A boy with long black hair nodded expression not changing, " I apologize for my tardiness older brother. " Sighing the boy with white hair got on his feet putting away his cube, " No matter dad always says plans are just formalities, let's go I don't want mom to start worrying. " Nodding Illumi fell into step behind his brother as they moved through the forest as they ran the groud started to slope until they were almost running completely vertically.

Maintaining their speed throughout the run the boys eventually stopped at a small white gazebo on top of the hill, sitting inside was a woman wearing a large sundress. Her appearance was covered by a visor that wrapped around her eyes, " Leon, Illumi very well done you shaved off an entire two minutes since your last run, now come along we don't want to keep your father waiting. " Getting up from her seat the boys followed their mother like ducklings, eventually they entered another clearing where the grass turned into a packed dirt floor.

In the middle of the clearing stood a tall man with long platinum blonde hair and blue cat-like eyes, stepping forward Leon and Illumi bowed at the waist, " Father. " Staying silent the man overlooked his sons before nodding, " The past three years of your life have been a warm-up, as assassins of the Zoldyk family you both must meet extreme expectations. To build your foundations you will be constantly subjected to intense pain and torture. " As he spoke Silva took out two dark red pills and tossed them to Leon and Illumi, " Swallow them, if you accept. " Without hesitation, both boys swallowed the pills, after a second Illumi collapsed to his knees coughing violently until blood bubbled to his lips as he started to shake violently.

Leon's face turned blue as he gritted his teeth determined to stay on his feet two seconds later he vomited also falling to the ground, their parents watched over them with unchanged expressions.

Both boys were unresponsive for an hour before they were able to stand on their own, much to their dismay their father revealed two more pills for them to swallow. After the fifth time, Illumi was finally done as he passed out, mouth-frothing, unlike his brother, Leon still stood blood leaking from the corners of his mouth. Silva looked at his son, " Very well done Leon, one of those is able to put a full-grown man in a comma. " Smiling weakly Leon was about to speak when he fell face-first to the ground, " Rushing over Kikyo kneeled next to her two children flipping them over before pouring a red liquid down each of there throats, " I believe that's a new record, five Fox Glove pills and still standing. "

Silva's stoic face smiled a little bit, " Leon shall be declared the heir after his tenth birthday. " Picking up his two son's Silva turned to his wife, " I sure the both of them will exceed our expectations, but by how much is a mystery."

Groaning Leon awoke in a dark room, his arms were suspended above him by chains while his feet were placed in a bucket filled with water. On the edge, two metal tongs traced back to a large generator, before he could curse the generator started to hum before Leon's spine arched from the electricity flowing through his body.

Gasping two seconds later Leon felt sweat start to fall from his hairline, arching again Leon let out a silent scream as his heart started to beat faster. For an hour Leon was subject to the shock treatment, the three-year-old boy was somehow still conscious his stark white hair was plastered to his forehead with sweat and the smell of ozone filled the room.

Eyes foggy with pain Leon didn't react to the door opening as his mom and dad walked into the room accompanied by the eldest in the house Zeno Zoldyck, walking up to his grandson Zeno placed his hand on Leon's head before it started to glow with Nen. This was a technique that was created by the Zoldyck family, during their childhood each Zoldyck child was put under immense physical and mental strain.

After going through their first bout of resistant training the child would have a Nen switch implanted in their minds. When the switch was off the child would behave normally, when the switch was on they would become a killing machine that felt little pain. Taking his hands away from Leon's head Zeno stepped back as Leon's head slumped to his chest, " Hmph even without knowing of its existence the boy was able to fend off my Nen for the barest sliver of a second but it was impressive. When the time comes for him to learn Nen I will teach him myself, I wonder when he will surpass all of us. "

Not saying anymore Zeno left the room closing the door behind him, walking over to her son Kikyo hastily undid his chains allowing Leon to fall on to her chest. Groaning Leon looked up to see his mom's visor, " Did I pass. " Inhaling sharply Kikyo tried to hold back her tears, " Y-you passed Leon, so did you brother. Your father and I are proud of your efforts now to try to rest a little. " Smiling Leon closed his eyes as he rested his head on his mother's chest, now that Leon was asleep Kikyo let the tears fall from her eyes. Walking up behind her Silva sighed, " Illumi and Leon understand why we are putting them through this.

This is the way it has always been. " Exhaling Kikyo nodded, " I know but no mother likes seeing her children hurting. " The two left the room but unfortunately all three of them would return many times over the next few years.

-2 Year Later-

In a skyscraper penthouse, a fat balding man was entertaining his guest for tonight, the girl was barely eighteen, her eyes were lost as if she were dead. This was the man's two hundredth victim, he was the son of some aristocrat who had the hobby of finding young girls at bars before drugging their drinks. Tensing the man climaxed inside the woman his face a mask of grotesque ecstasy, when he was done the mole of a man stepped off the bed as he picked up his robe on the floor, clapping his hand the man expected his servants to come to clean up his mess.

When no one came the man growled, " It was almost a perfect night, if I remember right Markus had a daughter just turned sixteen. Maybe I'll have him watch as I **** his daughter. " Lost in his dark fantasy the pig didn't notice the shadow flicker into being before disappearing, walking over to the wall where the hotel telephone was the man dialed the number of his head bodyguard. Waiting for a second the call was answered, " Roger, make sure that Markus is placed in a cell and find his daughter do it well and I'll give you a reward. "

" Oh, Mister Buta I'm so glad to finally hear from you, I'm sorry to say that Mr. Roger has been placed in the hospital. But don't worry you'll be next. " Gripping the phone the man paled, running over to the bedside stand Buta opened the draw pulling out a silver handgun, " Whoever's there you'll pay for what you've done. "

Buta eyes darted around the room looking for any possible threat, " How am I going to pay, please indulge me. " Turning around Buta was now eye to eye with Leon, pointing his gun at the boy Buta was about to pull the trigger when he felt a vice-like grip incircle his wrist, " Now that's not part of the plan, your suppose to be on the floor right now pissing yourself, well you already did the last one. "

As Leon finished speaking he crushed Buta's wrist breaking both bones grinding then to shard, before the pig could scream Leon's fingers jabbed the man's throat making the scream die short. Smiling Leon let go of the man letting him fall to the ground, " Such a shame I can't kill you myself but my contractor said they wanted you to live out your days behind bars, a thing like you will become fuck meat by the end of the week. They also paid extra for one more thing. " Picking up the gun Leon aimed the barrel at Buta's groin before pulling the trigger. This time Buta screamed at the top of his lungs making the glass vibrate, frowning Leon tossed the gun to the side " The police should arrive in about ten seconds, I must thank you for being so predictable besides the gun everything else went as planned and you should be passing out right now. "

Like his words were magic Buta collapsed due to blood loss, still smiling Leon disappeared as police busted down the door. On the street below Leon watched from an ally way as police and news vans blocked off the street, turning around Leon walked out the other side of the ally stopping in front of a sleek black car.

Opening the door Leon sat down next to his father, " The job has been completed, the information Illumi gathered should become public in three minutes and 45 seconds. " Sliva nodded as the car started to move, " Very well done Leon this is your tenth mission and each has been executed perfectly, your mother and I have decided to give you a reward within 10 million dollars. " Leon stalled for a second as he knew his response would be judged, " I want 5,000,000 dollars and a five-month vacation from any contracts. "

Silva looked down at his son, " This is acceptable as long as you tell me what you plan to do. " Thinking for a moment Leon responded, " One of my contracts talked about a place that captivated me. Meteor City, after looking into it further I've learned that it's a place full of assassins and scum, but there's so much more. I want to understand it more to increase my knowledge. " Silva's cat-like eyes stared at his son before he looked away, " In five months you'll come back to the family and report your findings. If I do not find them satisfactory there will be a punishment. I'll start to arrange your ride " Leon's body tensed before he relaxed, " Y-yes father. "

He had only gotten a punishment once before when he was three, he was thrown into the forest surrounding the family home as his father gave the family dog Mike the order to hunt him non stop for four days. Eventually, it came down to a final fight between him and the dog the result was a large scar across his entire chest. The rest of the ride was spent in silence as the car changed course heading towards the airport, once they arrived Leon got out of the car as holding a large backpack. Stepping back as the car pulled away looking around Leon sighed, ' Where was the private blimp again. '

One hour later Leon was on a blimp heading to Meteor City Leon, ' He was the only passager on bored, his father paid a fortune to the blimp land at the coordinates he had given them. Opening the private room Leon put on the don't disturb sign before sitting on the bed Leon's hands moved so fast they blurred as he solved his Rubix cube, ' The plane is at least on time, I should be in Meteor city in ten hours fifteen minutes and 36 seconds. ' Smiling Leon reached into his pocket pulling out a small recorder, pressing the one button classical music started to play. Smiling Leon leaned back closing his eyes as the music washed over him, before he knew it Leon heard the pilot say they had reached their destination. Walking off the ship Leon looked across the red sand to see a city a few miles away, ' So Meteor City, I wonder how much you'll challenge me. ' Putting his hands in his pockets Leon started to make his way towards the mysterious city.

Leon observed from the shadows as two rival gangs fought in the streets, he had just arrived in the city and already something unpredicted happened. Turning away Leon's mind was racing, ' So many possibilities, what should my first move be.

I guess I should find a place to stay, no I need to understand the powers of this place ' Leon took a few more steps before he disappeared, for the entire day Leon gathered information about the various gangs in Meteor city. It was easy as he had been trained in negotiation and torture in this instance he used both, walking away from the corpse of his latest victim Leon grinned, ' So the city is ruled by a council that oversees this chaos. I was only going to observe but this place was more interesting than I thought. I might have to take action. '

Walking through the dirty streets littered with trash Leon stopped in front of a large worn down warehouse, the door was guarded by two large men with scars across their arms. Leon could tell that both of them had no former training and were only supposed to intimidate people passing by. Sighing Leon appeared behind the two men before delivering a chop to the back of both of their necks, opening the door Leon was greeted to the sight of several men, women, and children bagging drugs. Leon watched the guards on the catwalks above.

They were all equipped with heavy assault rifles and flak armor, ' It should only take a minute. ' Nodding as if to reaffirm himself, Leon jumped onto the catwalk before snapping the guard's neck. The sound of bones breaking drew the attention of the other guards, pushing off of the body Leon buried his hands into another guard's chest before crushing his heart. Leon dodged as bullets whizzed through the air behind him, for the next minute different pitched screams echoed through the warehouse as more and more bodies hit the suspended metal grate

. Leon stood in the midst of twenty corpses unaffected by the smell of blood, ' One minute forty-three seconds I was off, Now the boss should be in the tunnel leading into the street. ' Jumping off the catwalks Leon landed in the now-empty drug lab, the workers had fled when the shooting started. Smiling Leon looked around the warehouse, ' This bigger than I expected if this is a small drug ring what are some of the bigger ones like. ' Shrugging Leon at the large number of chemicals stockpiled around the room along with the various lab equipment,' It going to be a pain cleaning all of this out. '
