There were many factors that could make up how an assassin was capable of being successful. One of the most obvious factors that were out there was obviously being stealthy by a large degree. Making sure that even those that know that someone is there but isn't able to tell the exact location of where they are at. Hiding one's presence with so many different types of animals that were good at smelling out enemies in every direction was certainly difficult most of the time. But he had been trained with the best and sees no reason why to stop himself rom being stealthy all of the time. It was muscle memory at this point and a complete habit that he used to be careful when around others. He was usually able to tell someone's true intention if they weren't expecting someone to be there. Such as someone that seemed to be nice on a border only to be snuck up behind and would immediately react aggressively to his actions. That's how he would be able to tell that there was something going on that they weren't trying to show others. It was a nice tactic, but those that were joining weren't fond of it at least from what he was able to gather from the hundred of interactions that he had done. Killua was capable of being stealthy in most regards of just being a wildcat. Those in the feline family having specific ways of walking so that it would help them remain almost totally silent when it came to stalking their prey. Unless they let themselves be seen then the stealth is gone from that moment on. Either way, felines were the ultimate stealth predators and were hard to fight up against. But as most predators, they were always on alert if the target was indeed a carnivore and had to look for other threats that were around them. Killua knew far too well thanks to the experience he had with how paranoid some animals could end up being. It was more on the annoying side because it meant that it was going to take his job a whole lot longer to accomplish than he had originally thought. Another factor that made an assassin was their smarts. They had to be capable of formulating a plan at the last minute if an unknown factor comes into play during a mission. If they weren't capable of doing that, it just meant that they weren't good enough to be in that sort of field and had a lot of improving to do. The advantage of being raised as an assassin at a very young age was that he was able to retain information a whole lot better than the likes of an adult trying to retain information when they were just starting out. He was a strategist in most regards, having studied how most animals would react compared to others, being ablbe to get inside his opponents head to be able to fake them out that he was going to do something only to do something completely different. Assassin's also had to be great when it came to holding onto information. They should be willing to die for the job that they were on, but if they were good enough they wouldn't have to worry about such factors so as that one. Killua had never been captured once in his life because he was always paying attention to his surroundings. It was hard to sneak up on a serval that had amazing hearing and even harder to try and catch out since they were the second fastest land animals that were around too. Assassin's were top tier on the list while mass murderers were nothing compared to the likes of them. Mass murderers were sloppy and didn't take any pride in their work. Most assassins that Killua had met over the years didn't do it because the killing was fun, but it was more of a factor that it was all business. Killua had once started off killing considering it being fun, but later on, he realized that it was slowly starting to feel dull for him. Which is why he was here to this day, as he wanted to set a new path to his life right now, even if the other groups didn't like him being here. They would have a difficult time trying to drive him out if he did something that he wasn't supposed to do. He would like to see them try because maybe for once he would get a challenge with the clans. The albino serval had noticed that the other had spotted her. Oh, that was certainly interesting. Well, she probably just heard the tree and the snow that was dropping from them when he leaped from one to the other. She was obviously a lot smarter than she looked, even if she did look like she was about to pass out. Even if she looks like that, if he wasn't careful and they did end up in a fight the other could probably break one of his legs if she managed to grab him. He was faster than a mountain lion in a full-on sprint, but she was better equipped for the snow like almost all mountains lions were. Large paws to distribute their weight on the snow so that it would be difficult for them to sink all the way through.
His only advantage would probably have him going to the trees and trying to lose her that way. He watches the other's eyes when they travel to whatever he had just dropped in his mouth. He figured as much. Practically all of Snowbound knew what candy was until newcomers came along and then that creature wouldn't have any idea what candy was. Killua usually would have been offended, but he wasn't really in the mood to deal with that right now. The muscles around his paws would twitch, and by the look on her face, she obviously wasn't happy about something. Probably for the way he had approached her, which just meant a smirk was spreading across his facial features as he looked down at her from his perch. When the other finally spoke, he couldn't help but let out a short laugh from his jaws, the lollipop moving around from the small action. Oh? So she was the one to joke around? He could play games. Finally, someone that didn't automatically get offended to the point of trying to bite his head off. He definitely needed this. His body language remained completely calm as one of his arms hung off of the branch that he was laying on, the smirk still on his face. "Just saying how it is. I'm guessing like everyone else you aren't from around here. Do you even know what candy is?" Killua spoke in a calm tone for the first two portions of his sentence, but when he asked about candy, his tone sounded like he was teasing her. He was a kid and honestly just wanted to have some fun and laughs with others, no matter what shape that would end up taking. To get his point across, when he said the word candy, he used his metal claws to grab the lollipop stick and take it out of his mouth to wave it once in the air before putting it back in his mouth. The other was quick to introduce herself. Killua on the other hand probably wouldn't introduce himself immediately. His name didn't exactly keep it secret for what he had done for a living a couple months back. Melantha. Interesting name. The assassin had no idea what language that was in, but it obviously was a different language of some sort. Killua moved the lollipop in his mouth from one side to the other before he answered the other's question. "Pretty much. Looking for a place to spend your time for a while?" Killua questioned, although he was teasing her again as it was obvious he was poking a little bit of fun at her current condition. He doubted that she would get very far with the way she was now. It was almost impossible to tell how malnourished she was thanks to the thick way a cougars fur could lay on their body. All his mocking and teasing was fun and games.
