Kona Opened His Eyes slowly To See a Place he knew too well, the hospital
"How'd I get here ?...what happened" Kona thought to himself
Kona managed to turn, he was still in pain ..he immediately spotted Hiroshi who was awake staring at the ceiling
"Hey ...Hiroshi "
"Oh...your awake" replied Hiroshi
"Uhm...what happened ?"
"I woke up seconds ago how do you expect me to know"
"How'd you expect me to know.you woke up seconds ago ?"Said Kona angrily
"Ugh...why did they have to keep me in the same room with a looser"
Kona didn't reply he faced the ceiling and tried to recall what happened
"Oh...I remember now.. Captain Taku-...Kiyomi.... where's Kiyomi" Kona said shouting
Captain Takumi walked into the warden were Kona and Hiroshi Laid down still quite unable to move
"Oh...your awake now...that's great...now I can kill you both"said Takumi
"Huh ?"replied Kona and Hiroshi Who were both Confused
"I'm just kidding...I'm just really disappointed in you three...you were struggling against a D-Rank Bear before I came to your rescue "
"It's Hiroshi's Fault" Replied Kona quickly before Hiroshi could say a word
"How's it my fault Idiot!...besides I'm an E-Rank , Kiyomi's an E-Rank and Kona is An F-Rank how'd you expect us to take down a D-Rank Beast ?" replied Hiroshi angrily"
"You seen that's the problem ...you three allow your ranks define who you are ...when I was F-Rank I was taking on C-Ranks and winning ...Because I didn't let my Rank define who I am or make me feel I couldn't do what other high Ranking Hunter's were doing" said Takumi
Hiroshi and Kona Stared at the ceiling for a while and pondered on what Sensei Takumi said
"How's Kiyomi" said Kona
"Oh She's Fine her dad came to pick her up"
"Her Dad...She was injured shouldn't she have stayed longer for proper treatment" Replied Kona
"Kiyomi isn't like you two ,She's A Water Nik User ...Water Nik Users Heal faster than Others and they can also heal others too ...but she can't use that Ability yet-"
"You saved us ?...Why ? And how'd you know we were in danger "asked Hiroshi
"Well you guys were in there too long so I taught why not check it out?..."replied Takumi
"That was some nice timing "said Kona happily
"I know...When you all get out of here I'm gonna make sure you have no missions for a while so you can go train..I'll train you Hiroshi because you also lack leadership qualities !"
"What ??? I don-"
Before Hiroshi could finish his statement Takumi cut off his statement
"And Because of your special condition Kona I know the perfect person to train you ..."
[1 Week Later]
Kona and Hiroshi Worked a little on there shaky Friendship while they were at the hospital and finally after one week they were discharged
"I never want to go there again" Screamed Hiroshi immediately they got outside of the hospital
"I've been here so many times...you get used to it ..."replied Kona in a low tone
Captain Takumi walked out from a corner of the Hospital
"Oh I see..you've been discharged ...Well there's no need to go to the base your training will begin today !"
"Whatttttttt were tired" replied Kona and Hiroshi
"Tired of What....you've been in the hospital doing nothing for a week...get in the car"Said Takumi
Hiroshi and Kona got into the car along with Captain Takumi
"We're are we going "Kona said immediately they got on the Road
"Well I'm training Hiroshi at the base so that's okay but you...you'll be training with my old friend who stays in a different base that's where we're going"
"What...!...I've not even packed"
"I packed your things already"
"Sensei Takumi is really taking this seriously "Kona thought to himself
They drove for a while before stopping in front of a Huge Building ..One Of the Biggest in Japan, At the top was boldly Written HITJ Central
"Welcome to the Hunter institute Of Japan Central"Said Takumi Smiling Enthusiastically
"It's way bigger than ours" said Hiroshi
Hiroshi Kona and Takumi Moved to the third floor were a man wearing a black suit was seated on a chair facing the window backing them
"Beniiiii..." Shouted Takumi
"Takiiii...." Replied The man
Hiroshi And Kona Watched In Shock as the two men exchanged pleasantries
"This is my old Friend from way back when I was 15 ...we were on the same team ...His name is Beni He is An S-Rank Hunter"
"S..S...S...S-Rank ??!!" Replied Kona and Hiroshi
"Yep...Come on Hiroshi we can't stay long we have to go"
"Why does Kona Get The S-Rank Hunter to teach him ?" Hiroshi Whispered to himself
Hiroshi and Takumi left after a while ...leaving only Kona and Beni, it felt awkward for Kona he was in the presence of an actual S-Rank Hunter He was Stunned and he just kept mumbling rubbish
"So Kona ... Right ?...I'll show you around training begins tonight" Said Beni with a smirk
later at night Kona Waited for Beni to call him for there training to commence it was already past ten o'clock, he eventually slept off ...at exactly two o'clock Beni walked in and woke up Kona
"What in the hell" said Kona
"It's time for your training to begin come on" replied beni
"But...it's past two.." said Kona
Kona followed beni to an open field which was very cold
"You are going to fight me...you win by Killing the opponent" Said Beni
"What!!!!!" replied Kona
