Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran High School Host Club

There is no reason why I should skip around the point. This is an intertwined mix of Haruhi's hidden past known only as Empress as her code name with her oldest friend, Blue Rose (also a code name) and Haruhi's present, the Host Club. Blue Rose and the Host Club meet


Kano stepped onto the sidewalk and stared at her new school. It didn't seem so bad. At least, people here didn't deal in street legends. So they wouldn't hear of the Blue Rose/Empress duo. That would make everything much easier. The day was pretty much uneventful. The school was exactly the same it didn't seem like an incredibly rich school either except for the size of the campus and the uniforms. The uniform was too expensive so to replace it was black sweats and a black hoodie.

All of the places were too noisy so Kano decided to move to find a place in which to write more poetry.

"This looks like a good place to start." With that the door to the third music room was opened and rose petals flew out in a spiral.

"Welcome!" There stood seven guys all lined up, facing the door.

"Wh-what?" Kano said and took a step back. The blonde guy stood up and moved a bit too close to Kano, who promptly gave him a powerful uppercut to the chin. "Well, I'll be moving on." Kano turned to go.

"Are you going to leave for good or are you coming back again, Kano?" Kano turned to look at the speaker and identified her pretty quickly.

"Fujioka Haruhi." Kano gave a strained smile. "Pleased to see you again and that time it was imperative that I leave the country."

"Eh? Haruhi? You know him?" The blonde guy pointed at Kano, exhaled in a hiss.

"We go way back. Fujioka and I. Before she started dressing like a guy." Haruhi only nodded.

"I'm not the only one who's changed how I dress." Kano just shrugged.

"Eh? How close are you to Haruhi?" The twins popped up on either side of Kano. Surprised, Kano jumped back and hit a nearby cabinet, knocking it down. It splintered and broke into pieces.

"Oh dear." The guy with the glasses pushed them up his nose. "That cabinet cost 16 million dollars. How are you going to pay for it…Kano-kun?"

"16 million? Not a problem. I'll have it for you tomorrow." Kano turned to go.

"You're going to do something illegal aren't you Kano?" This was Haruhi. Kano sweatdropped before regaining composure.

"Like always."

"No, you don't. You'll work it off like I am. I don't need to try to get bail money for you." This got the attention of all the guys this time.

"Haruhi. It wasn't that bad."

"Yes it was. Once is enough."

"Yeah yeah." Kano sighed. "Are you still living where you always have?" Haruhi nodded.

"Yes, I am." The blonde guy jumped between them.

"HOLD IT!! Haruhi, as your father I forbid it! I will not allow this young man to take you from me!" Kano stared at him.

"And you would be…?" Haruhi pushed him aside.

"Ah…That's Tamaki-senpai. The twins are Kaoru and Hikaru." The guy with the eyeglasses pushed Haruhi aside calmly.

"I'm Kyouya Ootori. We'll expect you here tomorrow during club hours. If not (Here Kyouya pushed up his glasses)…the Ootori secret police will be after you." Kano laughed nervously.

"Sure I'll see you here tomorrow then." This time no one stopped Kano from leaving. With one hand on the door, Kano turned back to Haruhi. "I'll walk home with you, alright , Haruhi?" Tamaki, Kaoru and Hikaru all had shocked faces and turned hesitantly towards Haruhi. She smiled and nodded. All three boys collapsed on the floor.

After The Club

Kano and Haruhi were walking down the street towards Haruhi's house. There was an awkward silence between them. Haruhi broke it first.

"Are you expecting to continue where we left off?" Kano glanced at Haruhi.

"No not really. I mean we're already legends we don't need any more attention, but more importantly, those guys you hang out with now…they seem interesting and kind of …protective." Haruhi gave a chuckle.

"That's one way of putting it." Needless to say, Kano and Haruhi were being monitored by the host club.

"Who does he think he is, escorting Haruhi home?" Tamaki was chewing on a handkerchief.

"Kano Kolane. He claimed to have a past connection to Haruhi." Kyouya wrote in his notebook.

"Hey, Lord, do you think Kano's trying to take Haruhi away from us?" Tamaki's eyes sparked flame.

"No never I won't allow it!" By now, Kano and Haruhi had reached her house.

"So you've promised right?" Haruhi asked Kano.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll tell your host club the truth tomorrow. See ya." Kano waved at Haruhi before turning away to head home.

Reaching the end of the street, Kano smiled.

"Come out from around the corner you guys. You're not doing a good job of stalking me." The host club members came out from their hiding places.

"We just wanted to warn you. If you don't treat Haruhi nicely, you'll have us to deal with." Tamaki tried to look threatening. Kano burst into laughter. "I fail to see the humor in this." Kano calmed down.

"You apparently think I'm after Haruhi. I'm not. I'm not gay okay? I like Haruhi sure, but she's more like a sister than anything. See? I'm a girl."

Tamaki, Hikaru, and Kaoru's reaction was 0.0
