Hello people! I know I shouldn't be starting another story as I haven't updated The x Hunter x Fairy x Alliance in 2 weeks…but I can't help it. Inspiration struck, and I just had to write it! I was watching the latest HxH episode (124) yesterday and it hit me how much Naruto and HxH are alike! I read that Kishi was heavily influenced by Togashi. Is that true? And seriously I'm hoping I can update The x Hunter x Fairy x Alliance soon, 'cuz I'm hoping to write a sequel to it which will be a Fairy Tail and Naruto Xover, I think; and after that another HxH and Naruto Xover, which I don't believe will be related to this. Then I am having them all together in an ultimate finale against all evil.

Wow! I'm getting really ahead of myself here, aren't I? OK and forgive me for any mistakes here. I've only watched Naruto until the beginning of the Chunnin exam arc. And like in my other story, Naruto-verse and HxH-verse exist in the same world, dimension ect. Think of it as the Elemental Nations (Naruto-verse) are a different country than Hunter Islands (HxH-verse). I really don't want them suddenly dropping into different worlds, dimension and whatever. And Killua was taught the basics of Nen by Illumi. Now enough talking, and on with the story!


Prologue: Captive


A small dark figure sped through the night. He'd been stupid. He should have checked to make sure his targets' companions were dead. Killua knew this mistake was going to cost him. The targets' companions were hot on his tail. To him it had looked like they were dead, there was too much blood all over them and he knew when he disembodied the targets heart the blood hadn't splattered. Killua had believed that he merely forgot that he had already killed them. He hadn't wanted to kill anybody but this was his punishment as he had refused to go on a mission yesterday.

Damn, these shinobi were good. He winced as a kunai lodged itself under his shoulder. He made a sharp turn, hoping to lose the ninjas. Silva had called them ANBU. They were supposedly the best in the village, maybe even as good as Silva himself. This was a scary thought because he couldn't even land a blow on Illumi much less his father. Yet, what baffled him was that he had dared challenge them when it had been engraved into his mind that he was never to fight anybody stronger than him. He sensed somebody above him. Killua snapped his head up but was too late. The sharp blow he received to the back of his neck had knocked him out cold.


He woke up to bright light and equally bright blond hair and blue eyes, darker than his own. His target, Uzumaki Naruto. The 9-year old he had been hired to assassinate by somebody named Danzō. Apparently he was the Kyūbi or something. But something seriously made him doubt it. He was in an interrogation room he realized.

"I think it's him, jiji. But his eyes were black before." The blond said confusedly. But Killua's sharp intake of air drew their attention to him. Black? If his eyes wer-? He could worry about it later, right now he needed to find a way out of the interrogation room. Killua struggled to get up but looked down to see that he was restrained by chains. He looked up with a blank face and was surprised to see a kind, grandfatherly old man dressed in white and red robes. He quickly morphed his face back into a mask of indifference.

"What is your name, child?" The man asked. Killua hissed internally at the child comment. So this was the famed Sandaime Hokage. He didn't look like much of a threat, but Killua could tell from the powerful aura around him that this man was strong. His long robes hid his sinewy muscles.

"Killua. Killua Zoldyck." He said quietly, suppressing all intonations and voice inflections. He looked straight into the old man's eyes, trying to gouge his reaction.

"And what were you doing exactly?" He asked in the same tone. Killua had expected him to jump back or at least react coldly, but the Hokage didn't. Killua studied the old mans face. Deep lines etched on to his face indicated to frown and worry lines, weathered skin told him that the man was used to hard work in the out doors, and the respect and devotion he garnered showed how the people trusted him. He could be trusted.

"Assassination mission." The Hokage turned to face Killua with a skeptical look and beckoned him to continue. Killua sighed.

"Che."

He'd left out a lot of things and most importantly who hired him. He knew Danzo was part of the village he was in, Konoha. Killua also had a feeling that Danzo was the one that had manipulated him, but couldn't be sure, as he didn't know how Danzo did it.

"Killua-kun, It has been decided that you will remain here in Konoha. You know an S-rank secret, and it would be very harmful to Konoha if I allowed you to leave. Your family will be informed. When you reach the age of 16, at which time you will be considered an adult both in Konoha and in the Hunter Islands, you may sign a contract and leave Konoha." The Hokage announced, pausing for a breath and then continuing. "You will be given more information as you get closer to turning 16. When you turn 12, I will allow you to go back to Hunter Islands to take the Hunter Exams if you choose. At your current skill level, though you could already be a genin, you will be placed at the Academy in the same year as Naruto-kun if you should choose to serve as a shinobi." Killua looked around for said blond but saw that he was no longer in the room.

This was an opportunity to learn about this place without too many restrictions. Shinobi, it was. But despite all the pretty words coming out of this "Hokage" characters mouth, Killua knew that he wasn't being trusted to just roam around at his own free will. He would be watched. Killua was a political prisoner.

CLINK! THUD!

His chains loosened and dropped to the floor. As he stood up the leader of the village smiled.

"Welcome to Konohagakure no Sato, Killua Zoldyck."


"Hokage-sama, are you sure the boy is trustworthy? After all, he did try to kill the Kyuubi." Danzo said boldly. Sarutobi frowned. His old friend had changed so much over the years. Danzo could no longer be trusted. ROOT was an example of it. Sarutobi had a feeling that his old teammate had a lot to do with this.

"Container of the Kyuubi, Danzo" He corrected.

"Hiruzen, tensions have been growing between the United Elemental Nations and the Hunters Association. Suna has all but declared war and Kumo has steadily built animosity. Having that boy in our midst might cause any alliances to break!"

"That is the point!"

"Hi-!"

"Do not forget who you are speaking to! I am your Hokage!" Hiruzens killer intent leaked. He was getting agitated.

It will be easier to keep an eye on Killua Zoldyck if he is here and not where his family can protect him. 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer" he breathed deeply. Sarutobi wasn't sure that it was wise to let Danzo in on his plans.


The Sandaime sat in the dark. The Zoldyck heir was going to be his political prisoner. If war broke out against the Hunter's Islands, Fire Country would have the support of most of the Elemental Nations. If peace in the Elemental Nations was broken he would have Killua Zoldyck and therefore the rest of the Zoldyck family and by proxy the Hunter Associations support. Killua was their key to victory.


Thank you for reading! Now...REVIEW! Until the next time!
