Hey everyone, I figured that most of you have probably already given up on this story, and that makes me sad. However, I have been completely stressed out with multiple things this semester, and I have been unable to do anything besides school work and cry because of the stress. Now that That is all over though, I promise to try and get chapters out at least once a month. High school is the worst place on the planet. So glad I am less than two weeks from graduating :D I also thank you a lot if you haven't decided on giving up this story3 Thanks for believing in me and sticking through with it! On with the show.


Killua was surrounded by darkness, shadows creeping up in the dark. He tried to run, but there was no floor beneath his feet. He was falling into the unknown, with no way to stop himself. The shadows reached out, breaking the unspoken fourth wall, reaching to take ahold of Killua's foot and drag him further into the darkness. He tried to scream but they were silent, eaten by the perpetual darkness. After what felt like an eternity, he became blinded by a light from below, and he landed on his feet.

He glanced around to take note of his new surroundings. He was in a field, tall grass reaching his 14-year-old knees, the sun threatening to burn his visible skin. He was happy. In the distance he saw another boy, hand outstretched, inviting him to come with him. Killua ran forth, but the other boy began to run away, Killua could get no closer than a hundred feet from the boy. Frustrated, he stopped. "Hey! Why do you keep running away?"

The boy in the distance had stopped with him, maintaining the distance.

"Why won't you wait for me?"

The boy was enveloped in silence, begging to be heard, understood.

"Why are you leaving me behind?"

Amber eyes pleading.

"WHY?" Killua fell to his knees screaming to the sky.

The other boy looked down, before running until he disappeared.

Killua bawled more than he had in his entire life. Minutes-hours, dreamtime was never certain to begin with. Once his tears became silent, a whisper on the breeze grazed his ear,

"I never wanted to leave you behind Killua."

Killua awoke with a start, Alluka standing above him with a worried expression on her face. "What's wrong?" He got up patting the dirt off his pants, legs shaking from his dreamtime running.

"It's almost dark, and I couldn't find you. I thought you had run away!" She crossed her arms over her stomach. Despite her anger, the relief flooded her face.

"I'm sorry for making you worry," Legs shaking from his dream, he composed himself. He would deal with it later.

She sighed heavily, "Now you have to make dinner for making me worry." Alluka turned and started to walk away towards the graceful mansion. "First you jump out the window, giving me a heart attack, and then you leave for hours, not responding no matter how loud I yelled your name. I wasted thirty minutes of my life searching for you."

Killua wrapped his arms around her, causing her to jump a little. "I am sorry for making you worry today. I am sorry for making you worry so much these past six something months. I'm sorry that I haven't left my room. I'm sorry I haven't been eating. I am sorry for making you find me half dead in some alleyway. I'm sorry I have put so much stress on you to take care of me. I'm sorry I've been a financial burden on you and Leorio. I'm sorry for so many things. I'm mostly sorry though for the pain I made you endure. I love you 'Luka." Alluka was the only one he could ever be this open with, and he was slowly starting to regret causing her so much pain from his own pain. Silent tears of guilt fell from his face onto her shoulders.

Her shoulders started to heave, as tears fell onto his arms. She wept. She turned and flung her arms around his shoulders. She began to laugh through her tears, until he joined in with her, both slowly falling to the ground.

Killua smiled and picked her up and began to carry her into the mansion. "Let's go watch a movie and make popcorn with copious amounts of butter on it." She was positioned on his back like they used to when they were younger.

"You've got it onii-chan!"

They fumbled up the stairs with a clumsy balance, Killua not used to the added weight mixed with his failing to work out for the last six months. Once they were able to open the door to Killua's suit, Alluka slid of his back to go pick out a movie while Killua made good on his promise of popcorn with an obscene amount of butter.

Plopping down on the couch next to his sister, Killua grabbed a handful of butter.

"Killua! There's enough butter to give someone a heart attack!" Alluka giggled as she grabbed her own handful to shove in her mouth.

"Whey! I don't whant to shee you cohmplaing abouht it!" Killua huffed and shoved even more popcorn into his already over filled mouth. Alluka just laughed. Finally swallowing, "Anyways, what movie did you pick out? I swear if it's another rom com…"

"Of course not! … This time. I went in the middle and chose an action film. It's fairly new so I don't think that you have seen it before, but it has Iron Man and Captain America going to war with each other."

"Aren't they on the same team though?" downing more popcorn.

"Onii! All of the popcorn is going to be gone before the movie even starts!" She grabs the bowl out of his hands and places it on the coffee table. "Yes they are on the same team, however, that is why the movie is called civil war." She grabbed the remote and pressed play on the movie's title screen.

Killua slid back into to the couch and wrapped an arm around his sister. No matter how old she actually was, she was still going to be his little kid sister. She snuggled closer to him, laying her head on his chest. Not even fifteen minutes into the movie, she was already asleep, which was slowly pulling Killua under.

The movie was ending when Leorio showed up at the door of Killua's suit, questioning why Alluka would still be over here at such a late hour when Killua won't even give her the time of day any more. He knocked quietly. When no one answered he knocked louder. Waiting wasn't really what he was wanting to do, so he opened the door and peaked his head in the door, however when he saw the faint glow of the movie illuminating the two sleeping forms, he grabbed a blanket and placed it on them before slipping back out of the door.
