It was a snowy and cold night. In 2011, there was a kid named Killua raised by his parents. He and his parents are the deadliest and most infamous group of assassins. Killua has no friends; he was raised that way, only to kill and not to have friends. For Killua to get a friend, he’s going to leave home. The reason why Killua couldn’t have friends was because his father and brother raised him like that, for him not to have friends and was only to do his job: to kill. Because if he became friends with someone, he would want to kill them.
This takes place in the past, in the winter. Killua and his family live on Kukuroo Mountain. He wanted a friend to play with so he wanted to go to a hunter exam but his mom didn’t want him to leave, so he stabbed his mom and his brother, then he left and went to the hunter exam. The hunter exam is an exam to become a professional hunter. After a couple of hours he met three people named Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio. For them to be professional hunters they have to go through five stages, and there are 500 people in the exam, so it wasn’t gonna be easy because you will have to kill.
In the four stages Killua goes through he is with Gon most of the time and wants to see him pass the exam. He wants to be friends with Gon. The last stage Gon is fighting someone, Gon wins but he was in a service room to heal. Next was Killua and some strange dude. The guy removes his needles off his face and it’s Killua’s brother. Killua is scared of Illumi because he knows he is strong so he forfeits. The next match starts with the martial artist fighting someone else named Hisoka. Hisoka is an interesting guy. He has failed the exam 34 times because of killing 20 examinees. He was disqualified for almost killing an examiner during his first attempt.
So the fight starts and Hisoka starts to attack. He was so fast that the martial artist couldn’t counter his attacks. Hisoka beat him badly and the martial artist forfeits the match. After the fight, Killua kills the martial artist and is disqualified from the exam. Then he goes home.
