A/N: To all of my adoring fans, THANK YOU! I loved the positive reviews! I don't mind criticism if there's something I should take into consideration that I'm not. But thank you so much for the positive reviews!

Special thanks to anon, Merlina-Vulturi, and Flora-chan for being my first 3 reviews on chapter 1! You guys rock!

Alright, this is chapter 2! I know I said I'd post it tomorrow, but I figured I'd be nice and post it today! It's a simple chapter. Things don't really get interesting at all in this chapter, but it's necessary for later chapters. So enjoy!

Again, this chapter is really short. Sorry about that, guys. Usually things I type are longer. But I'm planing on making the chapters progressively longer for this story as I go, so hopefully that will go well!


I rolled over in my bed, staring at the cell phone the twins gave me. "Why are you idiots calling me at 3 in the morning…" I spoke to myself, yes. Reaching out, I took the phone and answered it.

"Hello?" I sounded sleepy, they didn't.

"Haruhi! We found out what happened to Kyoya!"

"It couldn't have waited-"

"No! We've got the others on the line too."

"All at once? How-"

"Ever heard of 4 way chat? The four phones in the conversation are ours, yours, Tamaki's, and Honey & Takashi."

"Hi!"

"Hello!"

"Haruhi! I told you bone heads not to wake her up! Are you alright, Haruhi? I'm sorry they woke you up! I told them not to! It's okay, daddy will make it all better!"

"Shut up, we'll kick you out of the conversation."

I rubbed my eyes. "Guys, you're all speaking at once. Stop it." They got quiet. Honey even sounded awake. This must have been important if Honey was awake at 3 in the morning. "Alright, where's Kyoya-sempai?"

The line remained silent, waiting on a twin response. By quiet, I meant nothing but the occasional sound of a rustling bed or a yawn.

"We got through to his dad," Hikaru began.

"He wasn't happy, but he finally picked up on us again."

"We asked if we could come over to talk to Kyoya"

"And he scolded us for calling at 2:30 in the morning."

"So we're not the only ones getting calls?" I asked, still tired.

"That's beside the point!" The twins both spoke at once.

"He scolded us," Kaoru continued.

"And then said Kyoya wasn't permitted to see any of his old friends."

"He said we were bad influences for his son."

"In order to have any chance of doing anything remotely important in life,"

"Kyoya would need to be separated from us and go to a better school than Ouran Academy."

"He's transferring schools?" Everyone except the twins yelled/whispered this through the phone almost simultaneously and I thought it was almost amusing. If it weren't for the present situation, I would have found it funny. But, this was serious.

"He's going to a boarding school and he's going to be cut off from all of us! Mr. Ootori sounded set on it."

Everyone was silent for a bit, then I decided to break the silence as I sat up.

"You don't know what school?"

"He wouldn't tell us."

"When does he leave?"

"Not for another month."

"So we have time to save mommy?" Tamaki practically shouted. The resounding 'shh' from everyone made him subside from his cheering.

"We have to act, though." The twins sounded like they were trying to think of a plan, but they weren't the master minds.

"Men! -and woman-, this is operation 'save - Kyoya - and - keep - him - from - going - to - boarding - school - so - that - his - dad - doesn't - ruin - his - life - and - so - the - host - club - doesn't - die'!" My head spun at that name. "Twins, we're going to need a very large net."

"Um… boss?"

"Honey, I'm going to need you and Takashi to come with me on the run!"

"Boss."

"Haruhi, I need you to have an escape vehicle-"

"Boss! We can't kidnap him!" Tamaki sat in silence for a while, before sighing.

"Alright. Any other ideas?" I tried prompting them to keep going because eventually, something useful would have to come of brainstorming.

"No. To tell you guys the truth," Tamaki began, "I never really thought of the plans for the host club. The better ones were mommy's…" Nobody said anything. No one was surprised. "Guys?"

"He is the shadow king…" I couldn't help myself.

"You think he's a better king than me?" I heard the sound of a phone dropping.

"Boss? Boss…" The twins started.

"He must have gone into his depression zone."

"Am I really that bad?…"

"This isn't helping, guys! We need an idea. What about you, Honey?"

"He fell asleep." Takashi said simply.

"Oh." The twins sighed.

"Have you tried calling, Haruhi?"

"No. I don't know his phone number."

"We can give it to you!"

"I'd rather not just call his house out of the blue."

"I can go over to his house." Tamaki was back for now.

"That might be useful…"

"One problem," Kaoru began.

"Mr. Ootori doesn't seem to like you very much." Hikaru finished again.

There was whimpering from Tamaki's end.

"And Takashi and Honey have no reason to go visit. Mr. Ootori hates all of us…"

"But you could go, Haruhi!" Kaoru finished this time.

"I can't show up out of the blue! I don't have a reason to!"

"Sure you do! You're the honors student! Tell Mr. Ootori you need a little tutoring, I'm sure he'll-" Hikaru.

"I don't need tutoring!"

"C'mon, Haruhi! It's for the betterment of the club!"

"Please!" Kaoru finished, again. Tamaki had fallen silent.

"I don't think Tamaki likes the idea; me being at Kyoya's house by myself."

"Tamaki's 'fatherly opinion' doesn't matter right now!"

"This is practically life or death!" The two twins kept talking to me and it was getting harder to tell each of them apart.

"Guys, I can't. I-"

"I'll cut your debt in half." Tamaki spoke again and the twins fell silent.

"Tamaki, I-"

"I said I'd do it. We need mommy back, Haruhi." I sat in silence for a while before looking at the clock.

"Guys, can we talk about this tomorrow after school?" There was agreeing from the other lines and everyone hung up. I drifted back off into sleep.
