Multiple Troubles
Disclaimer: I do not own Love Hina or the characters, they belong Ken Akamatsu-sama. I do own the OC's that will be used in this.
A/N: I just came up with this idea recently. This is an AU story about Love Hina. And while we're on the subject, the anime and manga are SEPARATE SERIES! The anime is crap and the manga is better! There will be no bashing of any characters because they will not be one dimensional like the piece of crap anime. Anyway, Please Read & Review.
Chapter 1: The Strange Meeting
Flashback
At a playground two little kids, one boy and one girl, are making a sandcastle when the girl speaks.
"Did you know…if two people who love each other enter Todai together, they will live happily ever after?"
"Really?" the boy replied.
"Yeah." the girl replied with a giggle and a smile. She then leaned forward and kissed the boy on the cheek, causing him to blush. "Kei-kun, let's both go Todai when we grow up."
Present Time
"That was the promise I made all those years ago." Keitaro narrated. "My name is Keitaro Urashima, I'm currently 20 years old and a ronin trying to enter Todai just so I could meet that girl again. The reason why I'm a ronin is for several, or rather, multiple reasons."
Keitaro walked up the stone steps that lead up to a building.
"I decided to move out of my parents' house because I wanted to continue to go to Todai instead of running the bake shop we own. I just received a message from my grandmother, Hina Urashima, to come to the Hinata Inn. I used to come here as a kid and hopefully she will let me stay here if there's room for me."
Keitaro finally reached the top, exhausted from the long walk. When he saw the building he felt a wave of nostalgia come over him.
'Man does this bring back memories.' He thought with a smile before stretching his back.
"I'm exhausted; I think I remember where the hot springs are, maybe I could use them." He said aloud.
He opened the door expecting someone to be inside, but, much to his surprise no one was inside.
"Hello? Granny?" He called out. "It's me Keitaro. I just got your message and I was wondering if I could stay here. Granny?"
He received no response.
'Strange, usually a bellboy or some employee would come out.' He thought. 'Maybe she's up in her room.'
Keitaro went to his grandmother's room only to find she isn't there either.
'She's not here either. Maybe she's out grocery shopping.' Keitaro yawned and lied down on the floor, staring at the ceiling. 'I really hope Granny will let me stay. I can't go anywhere else, not with my…condition.' Keitaro yawned again. 'Man I should go to the hot springs.'
In the hot springs
Keitaro was now in the water and he sighed in relief.
"This feels great." He drawled out the last part of his sentence. "It's surprising that no one else is here, the hot springs are the main reason so many people come to the inn. Oh well, that means more room for me."
He had a look of pleasure and comfort on his face before he realized two things that replace his pleasure with pity.
"I'm talking out loud to no one but myself again." He sighed. "Then again, I'm not actually by myself."
He sank into the water in pity exposing only half of his head and face now. He then heard the door open and reached over to put on his glasses. With his glasses he was now able to see who entered. Keitaro's eyes widened in shock as he saw a young lady with long brown hair in nothing but a towel enter into the water.
'Whoa! I guess I'm not alone after all!' Keitaro yelled in his head.
The young lady sighed in relief. "Man this is the life." She drawled out the first part of her sentence. "I'm glad that the dorm has hot springs, it's really refreshing for a lady."
'Dorm?!' Keitaro mentally yelled. 'When did this become a dorm?!'
Suddenly it made sense. The reason why there were no employees to greet him was because the inn was no longer an inn.
'Oh man! This is bad! I got to get out of here before anything bad happens!'
Keitaro slowly made his way out of the water, trying not to alert the girl of his presence. He nearly did so, but he tripped fell face first, causing him to let out a quick but still noticeable. "Ouch!"
The sound of him hitting the concrete floor and his barely masculine voice alerted the girl. She turned and saw Keitaro, who quickly got up and ran to get his clothes.
She shrieked. "Pervert!"
Keitaro heard the scream and ran out of the changing area. Thankfully, he decided to wear swear pants today, but since he was running he struggled to put them on hopping on one foot to get one leg in. He was hopping until he managed to get the other leg in as well so he resumed running, but he wasn't wearing his shirt.
He continued running when he felt something strange with his head.
'Oh no! Not now!'
Keitaro lost focus for a quick moment and when he regained his focus he saw a little girl with short black hair in front of him. The girl saw him as well and screamed. Keitaro skidded to a halt and turned to run outside.
"What was that?!" A voice shouted across the halls.
"It was Shinobu-chan!" The girl from the hot springs yelled. "A pervert nearly knocked her over!"
"There's a pervert in the dorm?!" The voice shouted back.
'I'm not a pervert! I'm just confused on what's happening!' Keitaro mentally screamed.
Keitaro was running up the stairs but when he got to the top he noticed there was no way of escape now.
'Oh come on! A dead end?!' Keitaro mentally screamed.
"We have you now, you pervert!" A familiar voice screamed from behind him.
Keitaro paled and slowly turned around. He saw the girl from the hot springs, who was now garbed in a towel, along with a few other girls. He saw the girl that he nearly crashed into in the hallway, who was blushing and behind the others. In front of her was a voluptuous young lady with silver/gray hair and her facial expression was like a foxes'. There was a girl with long black hair in a traditional haircut and she wore a hakama. What was really terrifying to Keitaro was the sword she was carrying. The last girl looked to be around the same age as the one he nearly crashed into in the halls. She seemed to be foreign due to her dark skin tone and light blonde hair; she wore the traditional school girl uniform but she wasn't wearing any shoes or sneakers.
"Wait just let me explai…" Keitaro couldn't finish the sentence because the girl from the hot springs, the swordswoman, and the foreign girl attacked him. The combined attack sent Keitaro a good distance. His head bounced against the floor and he crashed against the railing.
The lady from the hot springs yelled out. "Save it you pervert! You're going to pay for sneaking into the hot springs and peeping on…" She couldn't finish her sentence because she saw Keitaro's head lift up.
Keitaro lifted up his head and the girls screamed because his eyes were now rolled into the back of his head and his mouth was open.
"W-w-w-what's wrong with him?!" The girl from the hallway shrieked out in fear.
"I-I think he may be dead!" The fox lady yelled.
"Somebody call an ambulance or the police!" The girl from the hot springs yelled out.
"T-this was not my intention! I did not mean to murder him!" The swordswoman yelled.
The panicking stopped once Keitaro's eyes returned to normal. Keitaro looked at his surrounding area. "Oro? Where am I?" Keitaro asked aloud, not noticing the girls.
The girls were surprised because the man's voice changed and he spoke with a cute childish tone.
"Uh…are you okay?" The girl from the hot springs asked.
This time Keitaro looked at the girls and he had a big smile on his face.
"Oro? Oh, Hi!" He yelled gleefully. "Hey! You're very pretty! I'm Shouta! Everyone calls me Shou-chan! What's your name?"
The girls were too stunned to reply.
Keitaro then looked at Motoko and the sword in her hand and his eyes widened in joy and surprise.
"Wow! A sword! Are you a samurai?!" He asked like a child who had just met a super hero in person.
'Did we/they hit him too hard?' The girls asked in their heads while sweat dropping.
"What's going on up here?" A new voice asked from down the steps. The person came up the steps and onto the roof and the girls recognized her. She was Haruka, the house-mother of the dorm and runner of the tea house nearby.
"Oro?" Keitaro asked as she looked past Motoko and the others and saw Haruka, who noticed him as well.
"Keitaro?"
"Ah! It's Haru-chan!" Keitaro ran past the girls and wrapped Haruka in a big hug. "Haru-chan! It's been a long time! I really missed you!"
Haruka seemed a little surprised. 'Haru-chan? Oh, this isn't Keitaro. It's Shou-chan.' Haruka looked at the girls who were still flabbergasted and didn't know what to do. She quickly summarized what must have happened when she saw Naru in a towel, the small crack on the floor, and the nearly broken railing. 'Looks like they caught a glimpse of Keitaro's condition and Keitaro caught a glimpse of Naru.' She mentally chuckled. 'I don't know how I'm going to cover this up for Keitaro's sake, but I have to try.'
Haruka returned Shouta's hug and quickly pulled away. "It's good to see you too Shou-chan. Why don't you go downstairs? I'll go get some snacks and then I'll introduce you to the girls." She proposed with a light smile. Shouta returned with a smile of his own and said. "Okay!"
Shouta scurried down the stairs and quickly disappeared from the girls' line of vision. Haruka quickly turned to the girls. "I'll explain everything when we're downstairs." She started walking down the stairs before she stopped at the fourth step. "Oh and Naru." Naru quickly perked up. "I think these belong to you." Haruka tossed some clothes to the girl, who was barely able to catch them without dropping her towel. Haruka then continued her trip down the steps while the girls followed shortly afterwards. All of the girls each had the same thought.
