Sorry to anyone who read the first chapter and has been waiting for the next update.
Truth is this has been complete for a while, but a combination of my PC having an annoying virus/glitch where it warns me that it's gonna restart itself in one minute and then me being completely annoyed with this chapter and not being happy with it and then fixing it and then refixing it and then replacing it and then going back to the original then changing that some more... This went on for some time.
Anyway, to be honest I'm still not completely happy with it, so please review and suggest anything to make it better and anything that needs fixed.
Besides that please enjoy.
Within seconds of being sucked through the door the Host Club were thrown into a alley in a vast city. They were all still in their cosplay. The buildings on either side of them had no windows looking into the grey alley and the wall behind them was blank.
Immediately Haruhi turned to Kyoya, "Senpai, where are we?"
"Why do you assume that I know?" Kyoya answered back with another question.
"Then what…" Hikaru started.
"Happened?" Kaoru finished.
"Hey!" a voice interrupted with a shout from the end of the alley, "It's the Fullmetal Alchemist! He'll fix my radio."
The person appeared to be watching Tamaki and small cluster of people all gathered into view and ran to meet him.
Tamaki revelled in such attention and smiled and waved to the people cheerfully, but soon they surrounded him.
"Senpai," Haruhi shouted to him, "Do you know these people?"
"No," Tamaki said smiling, still happily centre of attention.
"I believe these people have mistaken Tamaki in his cosplay as someone else," Kyoya explained, leaning down, with a whisper to her.
"He's a lot taller, from what I'd heard he was a shrimp," someone in the crowd mumbled.
"So can you fix my radio?" someone else asked Tamaki.
"I don't know how to fix radios," Tamaki told them, confused.
"But you've done it for other people. You're Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist?" the person from before asked.
"No. This is cosplay."
"Cosplay?" someone asked.
"I bet he's just trying to get out of doing a nice thing for someone. Let's get out of here," the person with the shattered radio sighed.
As the group started to walk away Tamaki stopped them before dramatically ordering, "Kyoya! Get out some money, we'll pay for their new radio."
The people stopped and turned back towards them.
Kyoya grudgingly took a some yen out of pocket, "This should be enough to cover a radio."
The person walked back and looked at the money before pushing it away with annoyance, "What the heck is this stuff? You guys are a con."
They all stormed away angrily.
Hunny, still in the Al armour, turned to Mori, "Takashi, what happened?"
Mori shrugged.
Just then at the end of the street someone remarkably familiar came into view along with another person that looked familiar - well not so much person as suit of armour.
The twins stepped forward to look at the two odd people.
"Look, it's Envy!" the small blonde figure yelled angrily to his companion before running at them.
"Why's he…" Hikaru started.
"Looking at me?" Kaoru finished.
"Cosplay," Kyoya stated.
"Duck, Kao-Chan!" Hunny shouted, just as the blonde figure's right arm became a blade and swiped at where Kaoru's head had been and Hunny swiftly leapt from the armour cosplay, which fell limply to the ground, and delivered a flying to kick to the blonde boy's head, who was knocked across the alley by the force, before Hunny landed gracefully.
"No-one tries to hurt my friends!" Hunny scolded with his arms crossed.
"Kaoru!" Hikaru shouted holding Kaoru in his arms.
"I'm ok," he smiled back reassuringly.
The blonde boy looked up at the Host Club, then noticed the one who looked like a taller version of himself.
"Who the Hell are you?" the blonde boy got to his feet and shouted furiously at Tamaki.
"I'm Tamaki Suoh," Tamaki announced, then looked at blonde boy with a look of vague confusion, "I recognise you."
Face-palm.
"Why are you dressed like me? I'm Edward Elric and no-one steals my identity!" Ed yelled.
Suddenly he was joined by the armour, "Except for those Fletcher brothers."
"Not the time, Al," Ed warned.
"I think I know what's going on," Kyoya whispered to Haruhi.
"Good, because I have no idea."
"I think that we are in the world of Fullmetal Alchemist," Kyoya answered.
"But how?" Haruhi quizzed.
"I don't know. Why does everyone assume that I know everything?" Kyoya muttered in response.
"Well what now?"
"I think we should try and defuse the situation before Elric attacks Tamaki and Hunny-Senpai attacks him in response," Kyoya answered.
Sure enough Ed did look like he was about to attack Tamaki, who was discussing the lead-up to what happened; all two years of the Host Club and their events.
"Will you shut up!?" Ed shouted at him, "Geez, you're an arrogant jackass! And I barely know you! How do guys all put up with him?!"
Tamaki stepped back in shock and turned and grasping Haruhi's shoulders, "Haruhi! Don't listen to this insolent commoner! You're better than this! Don't listen to his despicable language!"
"What are you talking about?" Haruhi asked in ignorance of his words, shaking loose from his grip.
Tamaki's face dropped and he then sulked in the corner.
Hikaru and Kaoru stepped up to talk the to the Elric brothers.
"We're the…" Hikaru began.
"Hitachiin brothers…" Kaoru said with a grin.
"Twins to be precise," they smirked together.
"Wait, why do you look like Envy and Greed?" Ed interrupted, eyeing them with suspicion.
"How rude of him Kaoru," Hikaru stated, as he turned to Kaoru.
"Huh?" Ed looked confused.
"Interrupting our introduction," Kaoru agreed, looking at Hikaru.
"He doesn't even know our names," they said, turning to Ed.
"I'm Kaoru," Hikaru smirked.
"And I'm Kaoru too," Kaoru grinned.
"Wait, wha?" Ed said, looking slightly puzzled.
"No, I'm Hikaru," Kaoru said.
"Wait, I thought I was Hikaru," Hikaru responded.
"No, you're Kaoru," Kaoru answered.
Smack smack. Haruhi delivered a swift slap to each of the twin's heads.
She turned to Ed, who recoiled in fear at the sight of 'Winry' and shuffled towards Al.
"I'm so sorry," Haruhi apologised for the twins.
"Winry, why are you with them?" Ed asked.
"What?" Haruhi asked, thoroughly confused, "I'm Haruhi."
"Sorry, I uh.. thought you were someone else," Ed almost smiled.
"Brother, why are those people dressed like people we know?" Alphonse whispered to Ed.
"I have no idea," Ed responded.
"And this is Hikaru," Haruhi continued motioning at Hikaru, "And this is Kaoru," she said motioning towards Kaoru, "They like to mess with people's heads," she explained.
Mori stepped forward from behind the others with Hunny, the only one in his Ouran uniform and looking like he normally would having been wearing it while he was in the armour, on his shoulders, who had went there after kicking Ed, who had the start of a bruise on one eye.
"Colonel?" Al asked.
"Huh?" Mori grunted.
"He sounds a lot like the Colonel," Ed said, leaning to Al.
"It's cosplay silly," Hunny hopped from Mori's shoulders, he walked towards Ed, who backed away slightly, "I'm sorry for kicking you. In the face. I didn't want you to hurt my friend."
"Apology accepted," Ed grunted, though the side of his face still ached from Hunny's kick.
"What's cosplay?" Al asked.
"It's hard to explain, but we're dressed as character's from an anime," Haruhi stated bluntly.
"Haruhi, please consider that we're in their world right now. Please don't say such stupid things," Kyoya whispered to Haruhi.
"What're you talking about?" Ed questioned.
"I'm sorry. We're just a bit confused at the moment," Kyoya stood in front of the others, appointing himself as spokesperson for the club.
"Yeah, well," Ed said, still watching them cautiously, "Just please stop looking like me," he said to Tamaki, "I don't want a complete moron ruining my image."
Tamaki, who had recently recovered from his sulk, returned to the corner of the alley and gained a pool of his tears around himself.
"Unfortunately we don't have any other clothes to wear, so we have no choice to be dressed like this," Kyoya explained, "The only thing we can do is take our wigs off."
With that the Host Club took what Kyoya had said as a kind of order and removed their cosplay wigs.
"Brother, we should help them," Al sympathised with them.
"I'll see what I can do," Ed mumbled.
I hope everyone enjoyed that chapter, the next one could take a while again; it's mostly written, but, like this one, I'm not all happy with it.
So please review and tell me how to improve, fix or change anything for the better.
Thanks for reading.
Bye~!
Amy.
