Yo, there's an important AN at the bottom of the chapter. Please check it out after reading! Thanks~

Kagero was up just as the sun was spilling over the horizon. Her internal clock had started working after the hunter exam, but if she overworked herself she would be impossible to wake up, and if she was woken up she would be incredibly drowsy. Not very good when there was an assassin around.

She took the chance of Zeno not coming early to wash her clothing. Yawning she got out of her little base and walked to the rapids nearby. She striped to her boxers, yes she wore boxers, and she was just left with her bandages that covered her body.

"Damn it, Zeno. Give a girl some privacy will ya?" Zeno came out of the bushes. Kagero sighed and continued to wash her clothing. After that, she hung them up to dry on some tree branches and went back to her training ground after catching some fish.

"Why do you wear men's underwear?" Zeno asked dryly.

She paused in biting her fish and swallowed, picking out some bones. "Oh, that's like, the first time you talked in a week." She teased. "And I was raised as a boy, so…This is normal for me."

"Then what about that."

"That? Oh, women problems. I no longer have the super power to bleed for a week and not die." She laughed at her own joke. "I had surgery two years ago, when I was twelve. Father encouraged me to get it so it won't…. Interfere."

Zeno's facial expression changed to a somewhat disgusted one, though it was very hard to notice.

"I don't plan on having kids anyways, though it's still possible. At least that's what the doc said, something about lessoning the symptoms of menstruation. Oh that reminds me… I need to get more medication soon…"

Zeno went back to his ever ignoring self as Kagero started talking to herself.

"Aww don't be that way, you're gonna get wrink—uh, sorry. Haha, well… I ought to start training now." She carefully skirted around that topic, she didn't know what would set Zeno off—old people didn't really like when their age comes up. "What to do…What to do… Ah!"

She decided to do some training she hadn't done in a while. Dad would throw me off that cliff if I forgot about the basics. A little late to remember that, but nothing I can do about it now except train.

She took forms from various martial arts and made with the help of her father. But she was getting lazy on it. She had been focusing too much on the acrobatic part of her martial arts. But it requires knowing her forms to the point that she does them on reflex, because in close combat with a shorter range—especially since it used a lot of elbows and knees—she needed to be able to flow without pause. She absently remembered her father calling them katas. She preferred shadow boxing though.

Zeno was still watching her. I've never seen this martial art. Where did she learn it? He saw her do a bicycle kick and follow up with an elbow, and after that she extended her arm to grab at—from what he could see—someone's clothing to flip them over her back with a kick.

Almost sensing that Zeno wanted to ask her something—she could feel his gaze on her from the hair raising on the back of her neck—she took a chance, but didn't stop moving. "What is it?"

"What form of martial arts is that?" It didn't really sound like a question the way he put it. Pfft, Zoldycks don't ask questions, that's why—they demand the answers.

"Oh, I made it up with some family help. Mixed a few other styles and put my own twist on it. There's nothing else like it in the world I'd say."

Lunch came around and Zeno wasn't. The company was nice, but surely Zeno had his own things to do. People to see, people to kill. The rest of her day was spent practicing her forms and she mixed her schedule around throughout the week. For a few hours each day—with breaks of course—she beat on a tree, and by the end of that week the tree had no bark left on the base of it and was left fairly smooth.

• • • • • •

Zeno was a man of honor, he was a proud man. People would assume that he was arrogant and unfriendly—which was partially true, he just didn't like conversing, that didn't mean he didn't like company—because of his power. He was a highly ranked assassin after all.

But that didn't mean he was a terrible person—actually, yeah it did—because while he didn't necessarily enjoy killing, he enjoyed the fights that came with it. So when his son gave him the order he was excited, more curious, but looking forward to it nonetheless.

So there he was in a tree watching Kagero training in her unorthodox ways. That weird spinning thing she did with those wheel-shoes of hers. He calculated her spin trajectory and—

She fell under the punch that would have hit her head—aiming for harm, not a kill. But she didn't need to know that. And with the devils luck she made a mistake and slipped, just falling and rolling away from Zeno's outstretched arm of harm.

When she fully realized what was happening she cartwheeled back and took a stance—one that Zeno had just been getting familiar with. "What are you doing old man!?" She shouted, but things started clicking together in her head just as quickly as it came out. "Has Silva told you to kill me?"

He didn't answer, opting for combat instead. After all, actions spoke louder than words—which at the moment made Kagero's assumption seem accurate.

"Damn it!" She took off to the trees as fast as she could to get into her ideal terrain.

Zeno waited for her to get away to give her a false sense of safety and took after her. He found her instantly.

Kagero twisted around a tree, narrowly dodging another punch. If she didn't feel the air current he made she would have been hurt. Che. He can hide his presence insanely well. I actually gave him an advantage coming out here! "Damn it!" She yelled revealing her location on purpose to lure him—even though she doubted that she was actually hidden. Right after she yelled she went back to the clearing at top speed to only have him right on her tail.

Right after she landed, she back flipped over Zeno and kicked his shoulder, jumping off his back to the middle of the clearing.

"If you're supposed to kill me then why are you holding back?" Then it came to her. He wasn't trying to kill her. He was testing her! She smirked. "Bring it on!"

The rest of the day was sparring, she even brought out her arm blades for an edge. Zeno didn't give her a break and they fought till the sun went down.

Kagero was out of breath and was panting heavily. Meanwhile Zeno wasn't even winded. "You Zoldycks are… insane." After a minute or two, Kagero recovered from her fatigue. "So, I guess you did take me up on that offer." She huffed and looked to the side with a frown. "Even though, it did take a month, to encourage you to."

Impressive recovery time. Zeno assessed, adding it to the list of things to report.

"So, are we going to continue this tomorrow or something else?"

"We are going to continue."

"It'll be great to rack up some fighting experience. I haven't really sparred a lot… Just training, training, and oh! More training!"

She would improve drastically if she had the experience. Zeno mused and chose todisappear after Kagero caught her fish.

"Aww, he could have had some fish with me." She pouted hoping to toy with him again. Though he might have not fallen for it a second time… Scratch that. It would be impossible to fool a Zoldyck with the same thing twice.

After eating she went to bed and the next day was relatively the same. Zeno would appear while she was training and attack her randomly requiring her guard to be up at all times. This meant that she would have to focus on the training and her surroundings as she kept Zeno in the corner of her eye.

The same pattern went on for the rest of the month—a week since it started mid-month. Zeno was surprised that she was able to keep up with his constant surprise attacks. Whether it be when she was sleeping, catching food or eating, she put up with Zeno's antics.

"It was nice training with you Zeno, but today we're going to take Killua back." She sighed at his quietness. "You don't have to be so anti-social… You're worse than Illumi. I thought I got you to open up some but…"

Zeno sweat dropped. I'm not as bad as Illumi…Am I?

"You are probably going to follow us around anyways so I'll say bye properly later." She walked off waving. "And also… You are as bad as Illumi. Start saying your answers, not just with those tiny facial cues of yours." Then she ran off before she got herself killed. She also left a little present for him. She carved out "Kagero was here! Miss ya Zeno! Also, work on not being like Illumi…please. I'll help with any sanity issues." on the poor tree that she has beaten smooth. Zeno would freak out.

Well unamused was more likely.

She arrived at the cabin while the others were training. Kagero knew this because she snuck around to see what they were doing. While infiltrating the cabin she saw Sequant, or rather he saw her. Kagero shut his mouth with a glare before he could even move, let alone say anything. He was about to comment on how dirty she looked, but wisely kept quiet.

Then she proceeded to the bathroom to have a well needed bath.

Well my hair has gotten longer…I should cut it soon, but father forbid me. She sighed looking at her bangs. They were well passed her eyes now. I'm supposed to be like a boy, but he forbade me to keep my hair short… You make no sense dad.

She washed herself so clean that every spec of dirt was gone and took advantage of the laundry machines that Zebero had and put her clothes in. She stole—or as she would prefer, borrowed—some clothing from Kurapika. They were a bit big on her, but Leorio's would be enormous on her, and she wouldn't want to wear his clothing. Gon's clothes would make her look like a prostitute. Most likely, because his shirt would be too small on her that it would show her waist and naval, she almost shivered. It would be terrible.

Especially the shorts. Does he even notice how short they are on him?

She put her weights back on and walked down the stairs being careful no one saw her. She had carefully watched Zeno to see how he walked and ran. She took his technique and applied it to her normal movement. She made no sound now when walking or running, well, most of the time. If she didn't actively try to do it, it wouldn't work.

She went to the kitchen and made some lunch; a tray of various sandwiches and a cold soup to dip them in. She set them on the table and waited for her prey to waltz in.

"Ne, when do you thing Mirage will be back?" Gon asked with excitement.

"She should be back any day now." Kurapika stated. "She did say she would be back in two months."

"Unless that Zeno guy kidnapped her." Leorio said jokingly.

"Ehh! Leorio that's not funny!" Gon shouted, it wasn't something to joke about.

"You did go too far." Kurapika agreed.

"Sorry, sorry." He amended with a sheepish look.

When they got to the dining room the three eyed the table. The food there didn't look like anything Zebero would make them. The man was adamant that a smaller meal after training was better than stuffing themselves. They would have a snack if they were still hungry afterwards—which wasn't as often as they would have thought, they were usually filled with the smaller dinner.

Breakfast is what he made a larger meal for.

"Zebero, did you make this?" Kurapika asked, he just wanted to make sure. The man could be feeling generous.

"No. I wonder if Sequant did."

"Him? He wouldn't do that!" Leorio came in with disbelief.

Kagero was in the shadow of the hall way when she looked at Kurapika. Damn, he's catching on to it! I'll have to act fast! She reappeared behind Leorio and Gon's bench. She was crouched behind it.

"I'm worried though. What if Zeno did decide to kidnap her?" Leorio brought it up again.

Here's my chance!

She abruptly stood up quietly and grabbed Leorio and Gon's shoulders. "Zeno, kidnap me? Pfft."

Leorio screamed and Gon jumped to his feet.

"M–Mirage!"

"Ah mou! Don't scare us like that!" Gon yelled, actually being frustrated and slightly angry.

By this time Kageoro on the verge of falling over from laughter. She was laughing so hard she wasn't making a sound and was clutching her stomach bent over. It's the type of laughter that if you laughed hard enough you can feel abs growing.

"Hah…Well now that I've pranked you. Let's eat!"

"Wait you made this?"

"Yea, I have been here for a while. I put my other clothing in the wash, took a bath, made lunch, and waited to surprise you guys."

"Why not just come straight to us?" Kurapika asked.

"Well, firstly that wouldn't be any fun. Secondly, you guys would want to go straight to the gate as soon as I got back."

"Geh, she read us like a book…" Leorio murmured.

She sat down and grabbed a sandwich, "Anyways, how did you know about Zeno?"

This led to them explaining that she heard her yelling on the mountain about a week after she left to train.

"You guys heard that?" She laughed. "... And yea, I met Zeno. He's quiet but nice, though I can't agree with their way of making a living." She drank some water. "It took about a month to convince him to spar with me. In the end he would surprise attack me a few times a day for almost every day. I told him about me leaving and getting Killua back. He didn't really seem to care."

"So you did meet Zeno-sama. I'm surprised he didn't take you as a threat."

"Oh no, he did at first," this got Leorio to flinch, "but I talked to him and convinced that I wasn't one. Saying that I was Killua's friend and I opened the gate."

"So he's a nice guy?" Gon tilted his head.

"Yea. I said that before."

They finished their food while talking.

"Now then." Zebero came in after finishing his drink. "I suppose it's time to try to open the gate."

"Un!"

"W-Wait-wait-wait-wait-wait-wait. Wait…" Kagero said really fast. "I don't know about you guys, but I feel like we should rest before doing that. I've been sleeping in the woods on the cold hard ground, and I really feel like sleeping in a nice soft bed.

"Ehh." Gon complained.

"We should just do it now. I know we could open the door! Why not get it done sooner than later!" Leorio lashed out.

"Leorio…" Kagero deadpanned. "Don't being so hasty! You don't know who you'll run in to over there! It's best we rest before going."

"Mirage's right. It's the right decision. We could be walking into a trap."

Leorio paled and Gon gulped.

The atmosphere was dead serious. "Why don't we play a game?"

"A game?" Gon perked up.

"Yes, how about, two truths and a lie!" Kagero offered.

"Ohh! Sounds fun!"

• • • • • •

They ended up playing that through till dinner. Kagero dominated with her acting skills—it was handy for bluffing—then Kurapika and Leorio. Gon had fun… but sucked. He just couldn't tell a lie! Such an honest boy!

They ended up playing poker after dinner and went to sleep soon after Kurapika wiped everyone clear of their pride in poker…or any card game in general.

The next morning they got up bright and early, having a hearty breakfast, and set out around noon. Zebero led them out back through the gate and couldn't help but chuckle at the shining eyes of the young boys in front of him. They're so earnest.

"You guys can go first, I have to stretch." Kagero offered.

"Thanks," Kurapika was stretching too.

"Why don't you try removing those vests today?"

"Oh? Music to my ears!" Leorio waltzed up with Kurapika winding his arm up. "Yeah!"

"Let's do this! Kurapika! Leorio!"

"Yeah!" The two chorused and got into formation at the door. "Gon, your arm's still healing so let us do this alright."

Gon pouted but sat down by Kagero. "It's alright Gon." She pat his head.

On a silent cue Leorio and Kurpika pushed. They were trying their hardest to open the gate but it wouldn't budge. With another spurt the door started to open slightly but it wouldn't go further than it was at. They were struggling to even keep it at the same place they got it to, the weight of the door pushing them back.

"Why don't you join them Gon? I'm sure you're healed now." Gon nodded happily at Kagero.

"Wait Gon! Your arm's healed?"

"Yea!"

"At the count of three!" Kagero yelled.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

With Gon pushing the door it started to open more.

Sequant stared with an impressed look on his face, he was so sure that they wouldn't be able to open it.

"Uuwaaah! So close!" Kagero cheered. "Annnnd… It's open!" She ran up to Gon who fell in between the doors and helped him up while Leorio cheered. "Now, it's my turn!" Kagero smiled evilly. The others sweat dropped.

She walked up to the door and threw her weights off. They made a larger crater than before. She snuck to the cabin in the middle of the night to increase her weights. The others paled.

"Here—I—Go!" She pushed it as hard as she could and opened the third gate much easier than last time.

Sequant and Zebero stared wide eyes. The trio's expressions were more or less the same.

"Heh, training pays off!"

"How could such a little gir–" Sequant cut himself off before he got killed.

"Thought so," and she, "hmphed."

Gon was running around her basking in all her glory.

They went back to the cabin to grab their stuff and bade goodbye to Zebero and Sequant, though Kagero didn't really care about the former, never did.

"Go down the mountain path, the mansion should be somewhere up there. I'm ashamed to say this, but even though I've worked here for twenty years, I've never been up the mountain. Sorry that I couldn't be of any help."

"No, that isn't true. You've both been a huge help." Gon bowed.

"He's right. We wouldn't have gotten through without your training." Kagero reassured him.

"We could have just used you." Leorio mumbled.

Kagero deadpanned at him. "You would take advantage of a girl?" She teased.

"Not in that way!" He yelled.

"What ever do you mean? That way? Which way would you take advantage of one?" Leorio's face was getting redder in rage and embarrassment.

Kurapika sighed.

Leorio sighed, turning away from the source of anger and growled in annoyance. Kagero just smiled innocently, too innocently.

"Anyways, Thanks for the help!" Kagero bowed lightly.

"Goodbye!" Gon yelled as he was running to catch up to Leorio, Kurapika and Kagero.

"Those kids are really something."

• • • • • •

They entered a clearing with a fence, it wasn't paved, but the ground was smooth and no grass was growing. There have been a lot of people through here. Kagero looked up and saw that someone was guarding it.

A butler… Kagero thought narrowing her eyes.

"Leave. You're trespassing on private property. I cannot allow you to pass without permission."

"We called ahead, and we came through the Testing Gate." Gon stepped forward.

"The butlers did not give you permission to enter."

"Then what do we need to do to get permission?" Gon exclaimed. "I said I was Killua's friend but they wouldn't put him on."

"I wouldn't know," she looked like she wanted to shrug, "because no one has ever received permission."

"Then we'll have to trespass!" Gon went into his angry chibi mode—which was closer to a pout than anger.

"I suppose so."

"Hmm." Kagero got their attention. "What if I know a family member?" The girl stared at Kagero. "I know Zeno."

"Did he give you permission?"

"No, but he didn't seem to care."

"In any case, this is where I draw the line." She used the head of her staff to draw a line. "If you take one step beyond this line, I'll remove you by force."

Gon stopped Leorio and Kurapika from charging her. He started walking forward.

"Gon, let me do this."

"No." He said straight out ignoring her.

"You'll get hurt."

"I don't care. I just want to see Killua."

"Alright," she scratched her head and sighed, "but I'm not going to take responsibility for you getting hurt. Though I will intervene if you go too far."

Gon nodded and calmly walked over. The moment he stepped over the line he got sent flying by a hit to the face. Kagero ran to catch him.

"Gon!" Leorio yelled. "Damn it!" Leorio and Kurapika pulled out their weapons.

"Leorio! Kurapika! Don't interfere. Let me handle this. We don't intend to fight you. We just want to see Killua."

"It doesn't matter what your motives are. I'm simply following my orders."

Gon continued trying to walk past while Kagero caught him whenever he was sent flying. She felt the hairs on her neck raise. Someone was watching them.

Is it Zeno? No it's not… One of Killua's sibling's maybe. She looked to a tree and saw a pair of eyes.

Gon continued until the sun started to set. Kagero had zoned out into the rhythm on waiting and catching Gon. The girl was looking uncomfortable. Gon kept challenging her, but she didn't want him to continue. It was like how she felt whenever she saw Killua harmed from his training. She frowned and hit Gon again.

"Stop it. Stay away!" Gon continued. She had no choice to deny his entrance again. Gon was hit but, wasn't sent tumbling. "Cut it out! Don't you realize how futile this is?! Why don't you stop him! Aren't you his friends?"

Leorio and Kurapika's faces were dead serious, showing no emotion. Kagero looked at her, eyes glowing from under her hood. She wanted to interfere, she was angry and irritated, her patience wearing thin. She bit the inside of her lip. Gon wouldn't like her interfering. He was trying to make a point.

The girl wavered at the determined look Gon had.

"What's the problem? I'm just here to see my friend. I'm just here to see Killua!" Gon slowly made his way forward. "Why do I have to do this?!" He yelled, bringing his fist back to punch the pillar beside the fence.

It shattered, and pieces of stone went flying.

The girl was frozen and she looked at his injured fist.

"Hey," the girl jolted at Gon's words. "I crossed the line. Aren't you supposed to hit me?" Gon looked straight into her eyes. "You're different from Mike. You may try to hide your feelings, but you have a heart."

Gon kept talking about how her eyes softened when he mentioned Killua.

Kagero noticed another presence alongside the one she found earlier. It seemed stronger…Is it an older sibling or a parent…

"Please…" She muttered with tears forming in her eyes. There was a small surge of power in the bush as "Help Killua-sa—"

She bolted to the butler's side and blocked something like a bullet. But it exploded and Kagero winced. A second one was sent right after and Kagero hadn't recovered from the flash and it hit the girl. Kagero glared towards the source.

"Honestly…" Gon looked towards where the voice was coming from. "What was that servant babbling about? She made it sound like we're being mean to Killua." The lady had a western dress on with a hat. She also had bandages around her face with a weird contraption over her eyes with a red dot in the middle.

Leorio ran to the girl's side.

"A worthless apprentice has the nerve to insult us!"

"You must be Killua's mother." Kagero brought the attention to herself. "He did tell us how he stabbed his mother in the face and his sibling in the side." The lady certainly had the bandages on her face from being stabbed.

"For him to do that, don't you think he's sick of killing people?" Kagero could feel anger emitting from Killua's mother, but it was quelled with an eerie mood swing.

She stepped forward. "You must be Kagero and Gon. I heard about you two from Illumi." She looked to Kagero. "Killua knows that you're here. I have a message for you from Kill. Thank you for coming. I really appreciate it. But I can't see you right now. Sorry."

"Forgive me for not introducing myself. I am Killua's mother, as you mentioned." Her red eye glanced at Kagero. "This is Kalluto."

"Why can't Killua come see us?"

"He must be being tortured right now." "Because he's in solitary confinement" Kagero and Killua's mother said at relatively the same time. She ignored Kagero.

"Kill returned because he regretted his actions. And he voluntarily entered solitary confinement. So we do not know when he will leave…" Her eye flickered, and she went berserk. "What? Father! What are you doing?! Don't do anything hasty! He's finally returned!" Her voice went higher and higher pitched as she screamed. "Oh, why must Father be this way?"

"Father?" Kagero murmured, "Oh must be Zeno."

She suddenly calmed down, "Something has come up. So I bid you farewell," and she ran off.

"Wait a minute," She stopped and turned around at Gon's words, "We'll be staying in town for a while. Please let Killua know."

"Very well. I shall tell him. Goodbye."

Kaluto stayed behind for a moment, "Who are you?"

"Killua's friends." Gon and Kagero said in sync.

"Friends…."

"Yea! They're great!" Kagero exclaimed.

"Kalluto-chan! What are you doing? Come over here!"

"Yes, Mother." She ran off.

"Wait, Kalluto-chan? He's a boy!"

"EHH!" Leorio yelled with Gon.

Once he calmed down Leorio spoke up. "I probably shouldn't say it, but these people creep me out…And I bet they were lying about Killua's saying that he can't see us. We should tail them."

"We can't go back yet. Leorio's right, but he is most likely being tortured right now."

"Don't say that!"

"But if we do that, she'll take the blame." Everyone looked to the unconscious butler.

I will take you to the butler's office." The girl woke up. "There is a phone that connects to the mansion. If Zeno-sama is the one who answers…"

"Zeno-sama? Isn't that who you met Mirage?"

"Ah, he was nice. He probably spoils Killua. Yea, he's his grandfather." She snickered at the thought.

• • • • • •

"Kill. I heard that you've made some friends?" Killua's father Silva asked.

"Yeah."

"What sort of people are they?"

"What sort of…? They're people I enjoy being with."

"I see…How was the Exam?"

"It was easy."

"Kil, come over here."

"Eh?"

" I want you to tell me more. What did you do during the Exam? Who did you meet? How did you feel? You can tell me anything…"

"Okay."

…

"And guess what Gon said next… He didn't want his legs cut off, but he didn't want to surrender, either!"

Silva laughed.

"He's so self-centered."

"Sounds like an interesting boy."

"Ah, then there's Kagero. At the beginning of the exam she was dressed as a boy and we didn't find out that she was a girl till the end of the exam! She fooled us all…" Killua sighed. " She acted all cool and quiet, but when it came to her fight she used acting to play mind games with her opponent. I actually believed it!" He laughed slightly with his father. "Then she kicked him out of the room and turned the lights off and ambushed him. Then her wig fell off! The examiners faces were priceless!... Then she won by-

Kil." His father interrupted.

"Huh?"

"Do you want to see your friends?" Killua looked down. "You don't need to hold back. Tell me the truth. Thinking back, we've never had a father-son chat before. I was raised by my parents to be an assassin. And I raised you the same way. You and I are different. I didn't realize that until you left home." HE put his hand on Killua's head. "You are my son. But you are your own person. Live as you please. If you get tired, you can come home."

"I'll ask you one more time. Do you want to see your friends?"

Killua nodded. "Uh-huh."

"I understand. You're free now. But…" Silva bit his thumb until there was a bead of blood on it. "Promise me one thing. Never betray your friends. Understand?"

Killua nodded with determination and bit his thumb. "I promise. I'll never betray them." He connected it to his fathers as a blood promise. "Never."

• • • • • •

Meanwhile, Kagero and the others were walking to the butler's office.

"Why can't we run there?"

"Are you kidding? There's an injured person!"

"Che."

Hey guys! A Long awaited chapter huh? I edited the grammar heavily and I hope you guys could notice the difference!

…though there's something important that I want to get your opinions on. Kagero is super OP isn't she? So, once again, I would like to rewrite this. Actually rewrite this story I want to change some key things. So far I've just added things in here and there and upped the quality of writing, but now I seriously want to change the story. The way it's written would be the same—roughly—with the comedy. But the plot… I've even lost sight of what I was going to do. I have a vague idea, but the way it's written confuses even me. I'd keep most events in, changing key facts and things. The interactions between characters would also stay about the same.

I would upload this under a new title. There would be no world transfer—which was grade seven/eight me trying to be creative, I'm in college now time sure flies, and now I just think it's gone bust—but they'd already be in the HXH world.

Kagero's character would stay roughly the same, but I would add more and different background to her and her family. I'd like to make the characters—I think just Gon Killua and Kagero—a bit older though, like a year or two just so I could get away with some things I have planned now. There'll be some darker themes in the story, addressing death and things in more depth.

There would be a key difference with Kagero though. She won't be a she or a he for that matter. I'll be explaining more in the rewrite.

I'll post another chapter of this with an author's note about the rewrite's new title and discontinue this version.

It would be really, really helpful to hear what you guys have to say about this. Feel free to PM me or review. Anything's appreciated.

Jazeoth out.
