Author's note: Bleach and its characters and Ouran and its cast do not belong to me. I'm revamping this project because I had long ago abandoned it, so it will hopefully be improved and more detailed. Sincere thanks to those who reviewed the first version of this! Please let me know, if you were a previous reader, if this has improved or not. Many thanks, and enjoy!

"Karakura Town? Where the heck is that?"

For everyone in the room, it was all blank stares, except for a confidently smiling Tamaki, looking quite pleased with himself and Kyouya, who most likely already knew of the plan and was paying no attention to Tamaki whatsoever as he tapped away on his laptop, taking care of some business or another.

Everyone but Kyouya sat on the giant couch as Tamaki paced back and forth, looking eager to share his plan but keeping it to himself for the moment.

"Come on, Milord." Kaoru said, looking bored but paying attention to the ringleader of the plan nevertheless. "I've never even heard of this small town. Where is it?"

"I bet it's in Japan, Kaoru." Hikaru drawled out in an equally bored voice, but just as curious as his brother was. "So what exactly is Milord trying to say?"

"Well, since both of you ask, it is where the Beginning Lessons Excessively At a Commoners' High school plan will take place!" He declared boldly.

"But we'll call it B.L.E.A.C.H for short." Kyouya interrupted smoothly, and then gestured for Tamaki to carry on.

"What?"

That was pretty much everyone's simultaneous reaction to his words.

The room was nearly empty considering that today was one of the days that the Host Club was closed to customers. Renge decided (Or more accurately, blackmailed and demanded with a smile) to attend this meeting, Kyouya grudgingly accepted the fact that there was no profit to be made at the moment, Hunni went and Mori followed, the Hitachiin twins tagged along for the fun of it, and Haruhi was invited courtesy of everyone else (In other words, was forcefully dragged into it against her wishes, as usual).

"It's a grand scheme indeed! We, the Ouran High School Host Club, shall participate in a transfer program that will last for exactly a month or so!" Tamaki grandly speculated.

A month or so? How is that exactly? Haruhi thought critically while resisting the urge to put her head into her hands. Please tell me that I don't need to get involved in this…

"Since none of us have the prior experience of the commoners' daily high school life, it would be a great educational benefit to see how the poor folk learn and go about their daily routines in their average lives, wouldn't you agree?" He went on, oblivious as always as to how unintentionally rude his words were.

How is that educational?

"The group will consist of Kyouya, the twins, dear Haruhi, Hunni, Mori, Renge, and I! In other words, the Host Club."

But technically, isn't Renge just a customer? She must have bribed Kyouya…Everyone who goes here is practically filthy rich. She thought reasonably.

"We leave tomorrow!"

"What?!" Haruhi said out loud with visible alarm this time. Tamaki always planned and did ridiculous, extravagant stunts like this, but this was where she drew the line. He still hadn't informed them where Karakura Town was, but everyone else seemed just fine with it.

"Haru-chan", Hunni started, with puppy dog eyes adjusted to its maximum cuteness appeal and a hint of tears to boot, "Mori and Bun-Bun really want for you to come along, and so do I! We talked to your dad, Ranka, and he says that it's okay as long as you wear something girly along the way! Also-" There was a brief pause as he sniffled, and Mori immediately handed him a small silk handkerchief embroidered with tiny, pink rabbits "-It wouldn't be the same without you, Haru-chan!"

Haruhi stiffened as she looked away, knowing full well that this was mostly an act… Oh, who was she kidding; With Hunni, it might've been the real thing. Or was it? Be strong, be strong…MUST…RESIST…

"C'mon Haruhi, we can mock and tease milord!" Hikaru and Kaoru chorused unanimously.

"Think logically, Haruhi! A regular high school, unaffected by the sheer bias and dating appeal of money! It's like a dating sim game, with the male harem all ready to go! I'm obviously the narrator, but we definitely need a cross dress character like you!" Renge squealed in anticipation, wringing her hands together in obvious delight.

"A daughter must travel with his father on this noble business trip, lest we suffer the intense degree of separation!" Tamaki cried out dramatically, unaware of how completely ridiculous he sounded to everyone else, who promptly ignored him, as usual.

Okay, as long as my word still counts, I'm definitely staying here…

Then the trump card spoke up.

"Haruhi." Kyouya smoothly cut in, pushing his glasses farther up the bridge of his nose, a crafty business-like gleam in his eye as he calmly smiled, "If you participate in this, we will consider lowering your Host Club debt by a third."

Naturally, her determined resolve crumbled at this and surrendered completely, knowing that they had her, presenting an offer like this. "F…Fine. Just let me get packed first."

Karakura High School

"Class! Attention please! Starting tomorrow, we will be joined by a group of students from Ouran High School in their transfer program-"

"Hold on, Ouran? Isn't that the rich kids' school?" A student interrupted, not bothering to raise his hand at all.

"Be quiet, Keigo! Yes, it is the school where most of the high class teenagers go to. Remember to behave and help them out…" The teacher drawled on, her students disregarding her while chatting amongst themselves.

Orihime was cheerful at the news. "Just think, a whole new group of students joining our class. Do you think they'll be our friends?"

"It happens all the time. But don't you think it's a bit odd that they'd want to temporarily transfer from that high class school to a regular, boring old place like this? Whoever came up with that plan must be some eccentric dude, or a pompous idiot that has nothing better to do." Her friend, Tatsuki, noted.

"I dunno, Tatsuki. Say, what're you having for lunch today?"

Little would they all know the trail of chaos and havoc that often followed the Host Club in its wake.
