Host Club at Alice Academy

Summary: Our favorite characters of Gakuen Alice are now in middle school. Hotaru notices that they are becoming pretty good looking. She decides to put their good looks to use. How? By starting a host club!

Disclaimer: I do not own Gakuen Alice.

Hotaru was in a bad mood. A very bad mood. She was so grumpy that when Mikan came to her asking for her daily hug, she didn't bother using her Baka Gun. Instead, she glared daggers at Mikan and stomped out of the classroom.

Now why was the Ice Queen so grumpy today? The answer was simple yet ridiculous. Of course, it was not the least bit ridiculous to Hotaru, in fact it was vitally important to her. So what could have angered our dear Hotaru-sama so? It was picture sales. Yes, Hotaru's sales were not going very well. Selling Natsume and Luca's pictures to their fans were hard these days. She had run out of good pictures to sell. Simply because Natsume and Luca weren't doing anything interesting lately.

Hotaru needed a new plan. A plan that would guarantee her a hefty sum of money for the next five years. Problem was, she could not think of anything. Still, Hotaru persisted. Everyday she thought up new plans, but none of them were good enough.

Finally though, one summer afternoon, the answer came to her. It was a warm day, and Hotaru was sitting in class, listening to Narumi sensei's lecture. Bored, she turned to look at Mikan. She stared at the brunette for awhile, when a brilliant idea hit her. She studied Mikan's honey brown locks, her big brown eyes, and her petite figure. Perfect. The gears in Hotaru's head began to turn, and in less than two seconds, Hotaru had weighed the pros and cons of her new plan, calculated the success rate, and devised how to put her plan onto action. For the first time in a week, Hotaru smiled. A very scary smile. It was more of a devious smirk, actually. Oh Mikan, she thought to herself. You are going to make me rich.

It was Saturday the following day. And on this day, five girls were invited to Hotaru's room. More like ordered to, actually. Their names were, Mikan, Sumire, Misaki, Nonoko, and Anna.

The five girls sat in Hotaru's room, waiting for her to bring them tea. They chatted amongst themselves about why Hotaru asked them here.

"I know! Maybe Hotaru wants to celebrate my birthday!" Mikan exclaimed excitedly. Sumire snorted.

"Don't be stupid Sakura! Your birthday is over already. I don't know what she asked us here for, but I don't think it's just for tea and cookies." Sumire said, casting her eyes around the room suspiciously.

Misaki nodded. "She most likely wanted a favor from us."

"I wonder what she wants. I've never been invited to Hotaru-chan's room before." Anna said.

"Me neither. It must be really important," Nonoko sighed. "I hope she isn't going to punish me for the time I accidentally spilled my potion onto her invention. I was too scared to tell her."

"No need to tell me. I already found out long ago." Hotaru said, as she walked into the room with cups of tea and some cake.

Nonoko bit her lip. "I'm really sorry Hotaru-chan! It was an accident."

Hotaru distributed the tea and cake. "No worries. Besides, you can make it up to me today. I called you all here to discuss a plan I came up with."

"Plan? What kind of plan?" Mikan asked as she took a big bite out of her cake.

Hotaru scowled. "Don't chew with your mouth open. Anyway, it is a plan that will earn me a lot of money."

The girls stared at her. "Fine. A plan that will earn all of us some money." Hotaru said, sipping her tea elegantly.

"And what do you plan to do? How will it involve us?" Sumire asked.

Hotaru stood up and dusted her skirt. Then she took a handheld remote from her pocket and pressed a button. A robot that looked like a elephant walked forward to stand beside Hotaru. Attached to the left side of its body was a screen. Hotaru pressed another button and the lights dimmed, the elephant's screen lighted up.

"Wow! This is just like a movie." Mikan said bouncing up and down in her seat.

"Mikan, be quiet." Hotaru sighed.

She pulled a pointer out of the elephant's trunk. Hotaru turned to face her small audience. They looked at her expectantly. She began her briefing. " Now, lately, I have discovered that the money I get from selling Luca and Natsume's photos has been decreasing." A picture of Natsume and Luca appeared on screen. Sumire squealed in delight.

Hotaru ignored her and continued. "Anyway, sales have been going badly. That is why I have come up with a new plan. One that will earn me much more money than selling photos did. And so, I have decided to establish the first host club of Alice Academy."

All five girls gaped at Hotaru. Their mouths wide open, eyes wide. They fired a whole bunch of questions at her at once.

"Seriously, Hotaru-chan? How?"

"Yeah, how will you pull it off?"

"A host club, huh? Tell me more!"

"Wait, what does this have to do with us?"

"Um… What's a host club?"

Everyone turned to look at Mikan, who had asked the last question. She stared back at them, blankly.

Hotaru spoke, "I'll answer all your questions, starting with Mikan's. Now a host club is basically a club where beautiful people gather, to entertain people of the opposite gender. For the sake of the idiot, I'll say it this way."

She looked at Mikan. " In a host club, customers will pay money to spend time with good looking people. Do you understand, Mikan?"

Mikan thought about it for a minute. Then nodded slowly, " Yeah, I get it."

Hotaru nodded." Good. Otherwise I would have to hit you. Now, what does this have to do with all of you? Well, I have noticed recently, that all of us are actually quite good looking, and so, I would like to ask all of you to be the hosts of the club. You will spend time and entertain our customers. Of course, you will get a share in the profit."

The girls gaped at her again.

Hotaru ignored their shocked expressions and asked, "So, who would like to become a host?"

Sumire stood up and tossed her curls over her shoulder. "I will join of course! Without me, your host club will never succeed."

"Me too! Sounds like fun! And I will get payed too! Mikan exclaimed, raising her hand in the air.

Hotaru nodded. She turned to the other three. "How about you?"

Misaki thought about it for a moment. Then she grinned. "Alright, count me in."

Anna and Nonoko looked at each other and nodded. "We'll join too, Hotaru-chan. Like Mikan-chan said, this will be really fun!"

Hotaru smirked. Her plan was going to work. She would be unbelievably rich in no time.
