"What do you mean you're not coming to the host club today, Haruhi?" Tamaki whined, sticking out his lower lip and pouting like a child.

"I told you already- I was asked to show a new student around." She answered with a sigh, not at all phased by his dramatic reaction, which she was way too used to. "I'll be back tomorrow, so stop panicking over it, Senpai."

"You're right!" Tamaki's smile quickly returned, and again Haruhi had to wonder if he was actually bipolar, or if it was all just an act. Either honestly seemed possible. Though it went virtually undetected, the blonde's eyes flashed with one of his signature I-have-a-devious-plan looks as he made a split-second glance at the Hitachiin twins. "Just promise Daddy that you'll be safe."

She didn't even hesitate, let alone promise anything, as she straightened her tie and turned to leave. "I'll see you tomorrow, Senpai."

It took a few minutes in Tamaki's corner of rejection, but soon enough he got over the moment and walked over to the Hitachiin twins, who were each sprawled out on couches facing each other, laughing at something that Tamaki hadn't heard, and didn't care about at the moment.

"Hikaru! Kaoru!"

"Yes, Boss?" They replied in unison, stopping their laughter and looking over at him. Surely this meant Tamaki had a plan, and surely that meant something interesting, even if it probably was destined to completely fail.

"Haruhi is showing a new student around, and I fear he might try and kidnap her, or worse, seduce her! I need you two to watch them, and make sure that doesn't happen."

"Wait, Haruhi is showing someone around?" Hikaru repeated questioningly. "Why her?"

"Well, why not her?" Tamaki answered, as if he'd been personally assaulted by the seemingly innocent question.

"She isn't exactly the most prestigious student in the school. No offense." Kaoru explained, seemingly in tune with his brother's exact reasoning. "If not for her scholarship, she wouldn't be here."

"So?" The club leader shot back. "That doesn't mean that Haruhi isn't perfect in every single way, which is why the new guy will be all over her! Now stop asking questions and go after them!"

"Okay!" The twins chimed in unison, standing up simultaneously, which honestly looked like a mirror act even to Tamaki, who was more than used to how the twins truly seemed joined at the hip. They were more in search of fun than actually helping him, glad to have something to do other than lounge around before the club opened. They left out the doors, scampering down the hallway to spy on Haruhi and whoever this new kid was.

Kyoya, who seemed to just appear behind Tamaki once the twins were out of sight (but he always seemed to do that, so again it was nothing new), sighed, which made his presence known before he began to speak. "The club is due to open in fifteen minutes, and now the twins and Haruhi will all be absent."

"Well, this is really important." Tamaki assured. "My little Haruhi might be in danger!"

"She is in danger," Kyoya answered, "of never being able to pay off her debt." With that, he pushed his glasses up on his nose, and turned to go.

A/N: So you clicked on this. You probably read the description, but let me just clarify something: This story will have an OC. The OC will be female, and eventually shipped with Mori. If you have a problem with that, then just go. I purposely made an intro chapter without my OC, so that you could get used to my writing style and decide whether or not you think you want to read this. If you plan to just flame about Mary-Sues or something, then you can just go. While constructive criticism is always appreciated, flaming and mindless hate comments will be deleted, and PMs will be ignored. This is my story. I can write it how I want. Deal? Good, because otherwise I'll smash your face and curse your unborn children.

Aaaaand, on a lighter note, for those who are following And Soon He'll Be Gone, I'm SO sorry. I had planned to write a huge dramatic ending, but I could never word it well enough, so feh. I'm not sure if it'll ever get done, but I haven't given up yet.
