CHAPTER 02 | LIFE OF A ZOLDYCK BUTLER

##########################


(y/n)'s POV:

"Killua-sama! Where are you?" I furiously yelled as I hastily ran through the woods.

"Ahehehe~" Then, I heard a voice chuckled from behind. I abruptly turned my back; however no one was there but only just a bunch of yellowish trees and green bushes.

"Argh.." I tried to calm myself down, closing my eyes. Is he really mocking me? I'll really just gonna cut the trees in one blow if he actually pisses me off. But, I kept my cool. Opening them again, I shouted his name.

"Kiii-lluuua-aaaa-ssaaaa-maaa!" But still, no one came out. I've been doing this for almost an hour. What is his problem?

"If you don't come out now, I will---" Before I could finish my argument, someone came out of the bushes in front of me, and pinned me down on the ground.

"Ah!" I yelped and I automatically closed my eyes as I fell down.

"Or you'll do what, huh?" A familiar voice teasingly asked. It was the voice of who I was searching for.

I opened my eyes reluctantly, and saw Killua pinning me down on the ground full of leaves and bushes, with his hands both on my shoulder.

"Wha--" I tried to speak, but I couldn't. It felt like something was stopping me.

"Oh, speechless huh? Wanna repeat your threat again, (y/n)?" Killua plafully snickered, and plastered a mischievous smirk as he raised his right brow.

"What the hell are you doing, Killua-sama?" I tried to fiht his force on me and stand up, but he again pushed me down. Ugh, this snow boy is really getting to my nerves.

"Nothing in particular." He said with a smirk. I turned bright red on our position. This is not right! Damn it.

"Could you please get off me?" I calmly said as I could. Show. Respect. To. Your. Master.

"Why?" Killua replied.

"Your father is searching for you. It seems that you have another mission. So, you should stop your nonsense right now, and get your feet walking before your father kills me." I calmly explained.

"Oh." He remarked nonchalantly, as his face showed no interest. The assassin got his hands off me, and sat comfortably beside me.

"Finally! So, come on--" I was about to stand up and get back to work, but he again pulled me down, making my butt hit the ground.

"Ow! What was that fo--"

"Stay here. Let's stay here for a while." He promptly stated as he placed his head on my lap, making it a pillow.

"Eh? Why?" I replied confused.

"It's just that... the wind feels nice. The weather also is in its' perfect condition," The albino muttered, closing his eyes.

"Now that you've mentioned it, it's actually really refreshing," I said with a smile on my face.

"You also smell nice," He faintly mumbled something that I didn't understand.

"I what?" I asked, making him repeat his words.

"Nothing." He replied. I shrugged my shoulder, and started​ to caress his hair. This was our routine. Every time the weather felt nice. He lies on my lap, as I brushed his white, snow hair thoroughly with my fingers. We often fall asleep because of the alleviating weather, since it was so soothing and relaxing.

Then I remembered that day. That day when I almost lost my life. Then he saved me.

It was 12 years ago.

Flashback

"I told you she wasn't able to handle all those criminals." A man remarked, kinda irked.

"She's an amateur. You really expect that she'll wipe all of those bad guys?" A familiar voice replied irritatedly.

"Well, yes. If she's gonna be your butler." The man answered back, with a stern, rigid tone.

"She's strong. I can feel it. She just lacks experience." Wait... Is that Killua's voice...?

"You shouldn't have brought her here. It's dangerous."

"Well, that's why I'm here. I'm gonna train her, and at the same time, I'm gonna protect her. " Killua...

"You? You're gonna train your butler?" His father scoffed. "You must really like her, huh? "

"What are you saying?"

"Well, you are really persistent on letting her stay here."

"Well..." Killua trailed off. I opened my eyes, and saw myself lying on a bed. The silverette sat beside me, and his father stood in front of him, with his arms crossed.

"Oh, she's awake." His father stated, pertaining to me.

"Killua..." I murmured mildly.

"(y/n)..." He stopped as he looked at me. "Uh, so...how are you feeling?" He asked with such a cute, worried look in his face.

"I, um... I feel fine." I replied politely, as I wandered my gaze around. "What happened?"

"Someone injured you badly. I brought you here and let someone heal you." Killua explained.

"Heal me? Who?" I asked.

"Well... My little sister." Killua smiled faintly.

"Oh... Can I see her? I mean, I wanna thank her."

"Oh maybe---" Killua was about to say something, when his father spoke.

"You can't see Alluka." He remarked straightforwardly. His eyes became serious, and glared at me, as if that I said something wrong His violet-blueish orbs looked very deadly, and sharp.

"Oh, okay..." I replied nervously, gupling. I better listen.

"I'll leave you both here. I've got things to do," He abruptly changed his glance to his son and said, "Let's talk about the butler thing later." With that, he left the room and closed the door.

"Uh, sorry about that. He doesn't just really want to talk about Alluka." Killua stated, averting his gaze back at me.

"Oh no, it's okay. I shouldn't have asked." I answered vaguely, as I gave off a faint smile.

"Yeah..." He trailed off, and looked down.

"Say..." I started. "What?" He replied immediately, moving his mesmerizing orbs back at mine..

"You saved me, right?" I asked, as my curiosity got ahead of me. Well, I think he really did.

"Well..."

"You killed the last criminal before she totally kills me?"

"Yeah.. I think so."

"...Thanks." I gave him my most grateful smile, considering the fact that he really did extended my life span.

"Sure," He returned back a gentle grin, and his expression turned back into normal. "Um, (y/n)?" The assassin added.

"Yes?"

"About the butler thing..."

"Oh yeah, that. I'm sorry. I really messed up. I should ha--"

"Is it okay if I make you my personal butler?" He rashly interrupted me, looking me straight into my eyes.

"Huh? Uhh..." I looked away swiftly, thinking on what should I say.

"Well, it's okay if you don't want to. I can't force you. I mean, you'll just hate me if I did, right?" He said, letting a small chuckle escape out of his mouth.

"What if I disagree?"

"I can help you escape here."

"Oh..." I looked down. Do I really want to escape? And if I did, where will I go? Will I live alone? Again?

"I guess I should leave. Take your time to think about it," Killua stood up and headed towards the door.

I need to make a decision right now.

"Killua--wait!" I frantically yelled as I stood up rapidly, just right before he can open the door.

"What?"

Okay... I've made my decision.

I kneeled in one knee in front of him, and it sure surprised him.

"What are you doing--"

"You saved my life. I owe my life to you, and to your little sister. So," I looked up, and saw his shocked expression.

"I'll let you have it, Killua... Killua-sama."

End of Flashback

It was the last decision that I made for myself; and didn't regret it at all.

"Thank you," I whispered gently.

"For what?" Killua unexpectedly responded, surprisingly. Eck! He heard it!

"N-Nothing! Hehehe..." I nervously chuckled, as I waved both of my palms in denial.

He instantly sat up, and closed his eyes as the wind breezed onto us, swaying his hair up.

"Thank you too," He replied startlingly, making me widen my eyes.

"Huh? For what?"

"For being there for me. You're my only friend I've got now. Gon is out there, having his little adventures. You also always have my back on my missions. You even saved me, right?" He said, looking at me, as he let a slight giggle come out of his mouth. My cheeks quickly turned rosy pink, feeling flattered for some unknown reason.

"Well, yeah; but it ended up you saving me from saving you," I remarked, not that confident. It was actually embarrassing.

"Well, I defeated that moron; thanks to you."

"Me? I didn't do anything,"

"You gave me strength." He mumbled gently, causing me not to understand his words.

"Will you stop whispering stuffs? You know that--"

Then, the silverette pulled me into his sudden embrace, and I as quite unable to react in his hastened action. I don't know what's gotten into this idiot but, his warmth kinda feels...nice.

"Wha--"

Intervening my response, Killua started to ruffle my hair as he locked me onto his hug.

"Hey!" I yelped, with my hands tapping his arm that was binded around me.

"You silly butler. Didn't I tell you that you should show respect your master?"

"Ow! Let go of me--- I mean, please let go of me!" I exclaimed desperately, with respect. Arghhh.

"Hahaha," He laughed lightly as he unwrapped his arm, and he grinned widely.

"Look what have you done with my hair..." I growled annoyed, as I tried to brush my hair straight.

"Suits you more. It makes you uglier," He said as he stood up and ran. What--! Ugh, he is really pissing me off!

"Come on butler, we have a mission to do." He beckoned me over, smirkig mischievously as well.

"Haaai, Killua-sama."

* * * *

"There he is, Killua-sama. That man who's wearing a golden suit, exiting the old building--is your target. The mission is that you have to kill him, including his body guards surrounding him." I silently whispered to Killua's ear soem details about his quest, and pointed at a man from a far distance.

"Leave it to me," He held a thumbs up as he silently took off and ran towards​ the man.

I always loved how the way he killed his target. How swiftly he can get. How flawlessly he . He may not realize it, but he's pretty much strong. I constantly adored how amazing his skills are... Well, of course, without him knowing.

Killua stood under the lamp post down the street, with dead bodies of the body guards and the man on the ground. He did it. Again; without any fail.

I slowly walked towards him, as he stared at the handful blood on his fingers.

Then, I noticed something moved in the dark. There was something in the alley behind the bloodied assassin.

In a glimpse of an eye, someone came out with a knife on his hands, heading towards the distracted albino.

"Killua! Watch out!" I cautionsly yelled as I placed my hand on my pocket, running. I grabbed the pen-like and pushed the button on the top. It transformed into a huge scythe, and I began to focus my nen on my weapon.

"Killua! Jump!" I hastily warned him, as he looked back and saw the hooded-man. He glanced at me, and grinned as he jumped up in the air.

"Huh?" The man remarked, puzzled. Killua's jump was too fast, that it almost looked like he just disappeared.

"Hey you!" The man looked at me, running at a high speed. "Say hi to this!" I stared as I jumped high, on top of him, and twirled on the air.

Seeing his terrified face as I dove in front of him, I mercilessly beheaded the frozen man.

His head went up flying, and the moment my feet touched the ground, his head landed on my hand.

"Wow," I heard Killua whistled as he came out from the dark, and the lamp post's light illuminated him.

"What?" I said, dropping the head on the floor, and swinged the scythe fast to take off the blood. I pushed another button on the handle to return to its' disguise as a normal, steel pen.

"You stole it again," He remarked sarcastically, walking towards me, with his hands tugged inside his pants' pocket.

"Stole what?"

"The last attack." He added, grinning adorably.

"Well, you were distracted. I was just protecting my master," I said as I placed back my 'pen' inside my jacket's pocket.

"Don't say that in that manner. You're making me feel useless," He chuckled with a faint smile.

"Hahaha," I giggled, as we walked out of the scene, before anyone could see us.

"So," I started with a jerky tone. "What were you thinking?"

"Huh?" He raised his brow cluelessly, as we remained​ walking down the dark road.

"Why are you distracted earlier? Huh?" I said, playfully nudging his arm.

"Well," He paused, together with a deep exhale and continued. "I was thinking about quitting this assassin thingy. This is getting boring."

"Eh? What makes you think of that?" I asked.

"I mean, it's been 2 years when Gon is living his life, and I'm here stuck with you."

"...Excuse me?" I almost choked in my own breath, as I raised another eyebrow at him, and leaned towards his face.

"Oh, I-I mean, that, I'm stuck at killing people again... I'm getting tired of it." He responded.p, restating his words.

"Hm," I stood up straight again, looking down at the road, observing his foot steps. "Why won't you ran away from it?"

"What do you mean?" He tilted his head in confusion.

"Well, you can go out of your house whenever you can, right?" I asked, skipping few steps.

"Well, I could. But..." He paused while bitting his lower lip, and ran his fingers through his white hair, brushing it upwards.

"Something's stopping you?" I walked backwards, and placed my hands behind me.

"No, it's not that..."

"Then, what is it?"

"If I go, I'll go alone. Mother and Father has Alluka again," He stated sadly.

"Well, do you want me to accompany you?" I smirked.

"But you can't leave the mansion."

"Oh come on! I'm your personal butler. I'm also a reasonable person, you know? You want to go see the world? Fine. Do it! You're afraid to face alone? Hire someone to accompany you. If you want something, go for it!" I yelled, in a cheerful way.

He just stared at me, dumbfounded.

"Wh-What are you looking a-at?" I stuttered anxiously, walking back beside him.

"I didn't know you can say words like that." Killua teased with a sarcastic tune. Wha--!

I punched his arm in frustration. I'm trying to be helpful here!

"Ow!"

"You actually think I'm a dumbass?!" I growled.

"Yeah," He replied, emotionlessly. Arghh, I really don't know what to do with him!

I glared at him and growled. Irritated, I angrily stomped my feet and walked fast, leaving him alone.

"Oi, (y/n)! Where are you going?!" Killua shouted.

"Home, duh! You moron!" Damn it! Arghh! Sometimes I just wanna strangle him!

"Wait! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it that way," Killua bawled as I heard his footsteps nearing me.

"Sorry your face, idiot---"

"I'm sorry." He interrupted me, hugging me from behind.

"Wha-- Let go of me!" I tried to get out of his arms, but he was just simply too strong. Never a match to me.

"(y/n)." He called out.

"What?" I said as I groaned in defeat.

"Will you really come with me?"

"Of course, you baka! I'm your personal butler, Killua. I will go wherever you are. I owe you my life, and I will use it for you, and for you only. And no one can change that," I deeply exhaled, trying to explain to him the oath that I swore to myself. He let's go, and I faced him.

"You know, (y/n), sometimes, you amaze me." Killua said, walking past through me.

"Wh-what do you mean?" I blushed shades of red, and turned my face to him.

"I'm hungry, let's go eat something. My treat," He proposed, evading my question, as he looked back on me.

"Ugh, fine." I groaned in defeat. Again. Since when did he knew that my weakness is free food? Tsk.

I walked beside him, and headed for a small fast food chain.

* * * *

"Another cup of rice please!" I called out the waiter as he walked towards me, and handed me another round of rice.

"Thanks!" I widely grinned, and continued to eat.

"How the hell can you eat like a pig?" Killua retorted annoyingly; sweat dropping as he slurped on his drink.

"Firstly, I am not a pig. Secondly, I can eat as many as I want. This is your treat, right? Might as well make the most out of it," I said, digging on the food.

"I sometimes wonder why you're so thin, despite the fact that you actually eat a lot." Killua mocked with a scoff.

"It's none of your business, Master, on how my body functions." I snickered back, drinking on my soda.

"Tsk. It's none of my business? You're my personal butler. I own you." He smirked.

I felt my face warm up, but managed to keep it unnoticeable. Jeez, Killua.

"Whatever, Master." I said, taking a bite from my food.

"I have the right to know everything about you." He suddenly leaned towards my face, looking straight into my eyes.

"Wha--!" I couldn't control the rapid beating of my heart, as it skipped the moment I felt his breath on my face.

"I should know everything about you, right?" Is just me, or his voice is getting husky? Gah, damn it! Darn my stupid imagination!

"Too close! Too close!" I immediately looked away to hide my red face, as I automatically pushed his face away.

"Hahaha, you look so cute," Killua laughed, smiling sweetly at me.

What's wrong with him today?! H-He kept saying those things! Arghh.

My face can't seem to return to normal. I'm still fluttered red. I just looked as him as he gently laughed.

"Your face is so red, (y/n)." He giggled as he pinched my cheeks, making it even more warmer.

"Stop it! I know! Damn you," I said, looking away from at the white-haired assassin.

"Oi, hurry up finishing that pig plate of yours, it's already late." Killua announced as he looked at his wrist watch, standing up.

"I'm almost done," I replied as I stabbed the last steamed pork with my fork. I was about to place the food in my mouth, but then Killua suddenly took hold of my hand; and ate the pork himself.

"Wha--Hey, that's mine!" I exclaimed bitterly as he let goes of my hand, with the pork gone into his mouth.

"Yum," He said as he swallowed the meat down his throat.

"Arghh," I rolled my eyes and stood up. Killua placed the payment on the table and we hurriedly left the place.

"Tomorrow." Killua started as we walked down the street.

"Hm?" I responded.

"We leave tomorrow." He stated.

"Wait, as in tomorrow?!"

"Yeah, that's what I said, baaka."

I pouted and punched his arm.

"Ow! What was that for?!" Killua yammered.

"Nothing," I teased, and secretly smiled at myself.

"Didn't I tell you to respect me?" Killua said as he wrapped his arm around my neck.

"Oh I forgot," I sarcastically replied as I turned my face to him and removed his arm around me. "Forgive me, Killua-sama." I stated as I slightly bowed my head down.

"B-baka, I was just kidding," Killua stated shyly, looking away and scratching his nape.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say. Come on, let's go home. Your father must be searching for you. We sure took our time," I straightened up back, as I looked at him and gave off a sweet smile.

"S-Sure."
