The three friends finally reached the church as the children of the place greeted them with smiles on their faces.

"Welcome back, Gon-niichan, Killua-niichan, Alyssa-neechan!"

"The old lady is waiting for your arrival inside the kitchen."

"Gon-nii, let's play soccer again!"

"Oh, sure—!" Gon was smacked on the head by Killua.

"You idiot! Want to do another errands for that old woman?!" he retorted.

"No...I'm sorry..." bubbly tears flow out from little Gon's eyes.

"Well, well...let's return these groceries to the director." Alyssa suggested.

The two nodded their heads and they walked up to the kitchen behind the church's structure.

✢✩✦✩✦✩✦✢

"YOU'RE LATE!" the loud voice of the woman boomed through the place.

"We're sorry!" Gon and Alyssa apologized, both terrified.

"Tch. Whatever, old woman." Killua clicked his tongue.

SMACKED!

"Watch your tone, young man!" the woman snarled as a bump appeared on top of the white haired boy's head.

"Damn...that hurts!" he cried.

"You boys, go clean the church. I don't want to see any specks of dust littering around the ground." she stated.

"B-But we cleaned it already..." Gon stated in the verge of tearing up.

"No buts, go now and clean!" her voice roared throughout the room.

"Y-Yes Mam!" the two boys saluted as they rushed out of the kitchen with clothe and buckets of clean water.

S-She's scary... Alyssa thought.

"And you, little girl!" the woman pointed her index finger towards the little girl who flinched.

"Y-Yes?" she stuttered nervously.

"Help me bake cookies for the children." she stated.

Baking cookies? she thought as she blinked her eyes three times before her lips broke in a smile.

"Yes, with a pleasure!" she smiled.

They started to get aprons and prepare the stuffs needed to bake cookies from the groceries that the kids bought.

"Hey little girl, what's your name?" the woman asked.

"I-It's Alyssa." she replied.

"Hmm...what a pretty name." the woman smiled.

"How about you, mam? I never got your name." the pink haired girl said.

"My name is Rosalie, I work here as the director of this church. I also own the apartment series that you kids blew up last night."

"W-We were attacked!"

"Yeah, yeah...by the Witches, you say? Stop lying already."

"I'm not lying, Rosalie-san! We were really attacked yesterday, we had no choice but to fight back."

The woman named Rosalie said no more as she mixed up the dough through her hands in silence.

"We are professional hunters that were assigned by the 13th Chairman to hunt for Witches that we're wrecking havoc, he said that we should exterminate every last one of them."

Then the woman lifted the tray of cookie dough and open the oven and inserted it inside, closing it, and preheating it.

"Then if that's the case, I have a job request for you, Alyssa-chan."

She was confused. "What is it?"

"Within the depths of this church, I would frequently see a girl in there, and every time I see her, she was always feeding on one of the children's of the orphanage. That is a Witch, isn't it?" Rosalie stated.

"Yes, no doubt it is..." Alyssa said.

The woman's eyes widened. "Please, I beg of you, kill that Witch! We couldn't start any mass because of that...thing!" she cried.

"It's our mission after all, being Witch Hunters." Alyssa smiled.

✢✩✦✩✦✩✦✢

"I wonder what Alyssa is doing there?" Gon wondered while scrubbing the windows of the church.

"Probably taking an earful shot of yelling again. That woman doesn't know what term of shut up is." Killua stated, not liking the director's harsh attitude to them.

"Speaking of her, we never got her last name, didn't we?" the spiky haired boy asked.

"Now that you mentioned it, we never really did know about that." the white haired boy stated.

"We never really did try to know Alyssa more nor we know her that well."

"Then...how about later we tell her about our past and stuff? In that way, she'll probably tell more about herself."

"Yeah, sure! I'm kind of interested to know her somehow. Don't you think so too?"

"M-Me? Not really. I'm not interested in such minor stuff—"

Killua's words halted when his gaze shifted to the person who was walking over them with a try of newly fresh baked cookies, Alyssa.

"I guess...I'm kind of interested."

Meanwhile, the pink haired girl placed the tray of goodies on the table as she called out the children to grab a bite.

"Everyone, have some cookies!" she called out everyone.

"Cookies? Did Auntie Rosalie baked it?"

"Yeah, with Alyssa-neechan!"

"Goodies, let's get some!"

Then the little girl carried another portion of cookies and walked over the two boys cleaning the windows.

"Good job, you two. Here, have some cookies." she warmly said.

"It looks delicious!" Gon began to drool at the mouthwatering cookies.

"Did you baked it?" Killua asked.

"Yes, with Rosalie-san." Alyssa smiled.

The boys grabbed the two boxes of cookies each and munch the food, savoring its taste.

"Oh! This one is good!" Killua's interest perked when the chocolate flavoring caressed his tongue.

"This is heaven~" Gon grinned happily, in the midst of tastiness.

"Thank goodness that you two liked it." she smiled sheepishly. "It almost became over burnt though." she whispered the last part.

"Hey Alyssa, can I ask you a question?" Gon started.

"Sure, what is it?" Alyssa asked.

"What is your last name—?!" the boy with spiky hair was cut off when lots of children came up to them.

"Let's play doll house, Alyssa-nee!"

"No, Alyssa-nee is playing with me."

"She isn't playing with anyone! Only to me, hue hue hue!!"

"U-Um...Don't fight among yourselves, I'll play with every—kyah!" Alyssa screamed when she felt her skirt was flipped by some naughty boys of the orphanage.

She tucked down the hem of her dress while blushing furiously as her panties were practically visible to everyone.

"Haha! It was strawberry prints!" the naughty little boy laughed.

"Alyssa-neechan is still a kid, isn't she?" another boy stated, grinning.

Suddenly, they were smacked full-fledged on the head by Killua who was finished eating his cookies, angrily.

"You twerps! What the heck do you think you're doing?! Flipping a girl's skirt? Jeez...how immature." he groaned.

Alyssa glanced at Gon who wasn't fazed one bit. "You shouldn't flip girl's skirts, you guys." he calmly scolded them.

Good...he didn't made a huge fuse about it. she thought.

Then the silver head turned around after smacking the mischievous boys and met gazes with the salmon head.

"Did you saw it?"

"No, I didnt."

It was obviously a lie.

"You're lying, you saw it!" Alyssa cried in embarrassment.

"N-No. I didn't really saw it!" Killua blushed furiously.

She realized that he really did saw what was under her skirt as bubbly tears started to flow out of her eyes, she curled down on the ground, while frankly crying.

"I won't get married anymore!"
