116 ShipXKid

"Bring this bow along with you and don't come back if you fail to be a hunter. There are no failures in Croft."

"I will make sure to be a Hunter when I return." Silver hugged Lara before riding a black limousine to the port.

"Weren't you to harsh on him on that one?" Asked Winston from the side.

"He'll make it. His eyes tell it all." Lara smiled.

'There a lot of ships here. Now which one is the correct one?' Silver observe around 10 ships in the port. From a large dingy to luxurious ship. 'Lara said to keep my ability secret as long as possible but she never said to not use it in secret. Spider Bite! Batears!'

'Hmmmm, it look's like it is the third one. If one happens to board it without knowing what he is going into, they might think they are up for a coup with all those wariors and weapon on board.'

'Hmmmm, that man over there, it feels like I saw him somewhere before. And someone is wearing a kurta, would that be Kurapika or Pairo? What should I do if he really is a Kurta? I'll just have to wait until we got in a private place. I can't disclose my origin after all the works and trouble big sis and Winston has just done for me.' He then deactivated batears and entered the third ship.

"A kid? Are you sure you are in the correct ship? If you're looking for the kiddy ride, it is in that big white ship at the end. Hahahaha." Laughed a bald man with a spear.

"Yup! I am here to be a hunter after all. And not just any Hunter, I'll be the King of Hunters." Silver smiled and declared to in the bridge.

"???" Everyone. After a moment everyone laughed their heart out.

"That is the best joke we heard so far. But don't be too ambitious Kid. Hunters are strong and fierce, they won't take kindly of any jokes about it. Everyone you see here all wants to be hunters and no one will be kind enough to take care of you. So if you don't want to die, you should leave the ship now before it takes off." Warned the bald man.

"It's okay, I have trained for this and got approval from my guardian." Silver smiled and showed his Hunter Application card with signatures.

"Your funeral. Your guardian may just want to see you dead." Spat the bald man.

"Say that again?" Silvers tone became serious as he shot the old man with his killer eyes. He just gained a family and no one is allowed to disrespect her in front of him.

The old man felt death embrace him just by looking at those eyes and lost control of his bladder as he peed himself. He then swallowed back the words he wants to say and took his spears and left the ship.

"Thought so. Anyone else?" Silver asked as he eyed everyone on the deck who laughed. "Hmpph." He then walk inside the cabin as everyone give way for him like he was contagious disease carrier.

"Ohhh, we got a contender here. Lift the anchors, we sail early tonight." The captain announced.

"Aye! Aye! Captain!"

Two weeks has passed and the ship has just left the port of the third island it visited, the Whale island.

"Another Kid, is he also monster in disguise?" The Hunter wanabees murmured in the deck as they observe a kid with spiky black hair with shades of green and a set of green shorts and jacket paired with green boots. He also carries a fishing pole with him.

"Weird, why is everybody looking at me. Hello everyone, my name is Gon! Nice to meet all of you! I'll be in your care for this trip." The kid, named Gon, then walk excitedly into the cabins.

"Haaah, just a kid." Said a guy holding a katana.

"You'll never know if he really is just a kid until he shows his true color though." Warringly said by another.

"Tsk. You are all so scared by kid. What kind of Hunters wanabee you all are." Jest a huge man wearing a tank top.

"Really, if you are so brave. Why did you ran packing out of 'that' cabin after entering for merely 30 seconds." Replied by the man holding a katana.

"Hmmmph, that thing inside is a monster. Don't compare it to the kid just now." The huge man left the group as he felt humiliated.

Four days ago, he boarded the hunter ship all high and mighty. He is after all the largest and biggest in the ship. He pushed anyone that hampered his way and no one ever fought back. Then, as if mocked he heard someone say, 'If you really think you are the strongest, why don't you take cabin #1 for yourself. Acting so high, yet doesn't even know his standing.'

That raised his fighting spirit as he confidently walk to the cabin with number 1 written on it. He was about to punch the door open but it suddenly opened on it self as if welcoming him. "Hahahaha. See even the person inside knows the real owner came to take his place. Now get your stuff and get out!" Shouted the huge man as he entered the cabin.

The door closed on its own and after 30 seconds the huge man came out of the door trembling and crawling. He then did a dogeza as he closed the door. He stayed kneeling in all fours with his head on the floor for a full hour before running out to the lower deck and never approaching cabin #1 ever again. Since then his ego suffered a fall as he no longer showcased himself as the all powerful.

Gon travelled all over the ship and look inside any cabin that is open. He took a couple of hours roaming around, it is after all his first time travelling in such a 'big' ship all alone. He then went back to the deck with a little disappointment.

"What's wrong Kid, didn't find any available space?" Asked the huge man.

"Yeah, I looked everywhere but they are all taken." Gon said sadly.

"Actually there is a cabin for kids like you. You should try Cabin #1, there is another kid there already resting." The man suggested.

"Really!!! There is another young hunter applicant in this boat other than me? I should meet him! Thanks for the information." Gon bowed and hurriedly went back to knock on Cabin #1.

Everyone in the deck looked at the jolly kid walking back inside with an evil grin in their face.

"You are a devil you know that." Said the man with a spear.

"Hey I'm just telling the truth, there is a kid and there is a room for another one in there. Hehehe."
