Mistborn at Ouran
Chapter 2: The Other Seven
I stood looking up at a door and comparing the kanji on the door to the kanji on the piece of paper in my hand. The Chairman had handed me that paper as I was leaving the school. He said that was where the other Mistborn that attended the school went after wards. He encouraged me to go there and 'make friends'.
That is how I ended up outside this door wondering why the sign by the door and the paper in my hand read 'Music Room 3'. Why would Mistborn choose to hang out in a music room?
'Oh, well I guess I won't learn anything standing here.' I thought. I put my hand on the door handle and slowly pushed open the door.
As soon as I opened the door there was a bright flash of light followed by a bunch of rose petals swirling around me. When sight returned I could tell that this wasn't used as a music room. Unless music rooms were that much different in Japan than in America. There were seven tables surrounded by couches. At each table there was a boy, or two as there appeared to be twins sitting together in one corner, and three or four girls gazing at the boys in avid fascination.
My mind registered all of this in about five seconds. Just the right amount of time for people to notice that the door was open and that a strange girl was standing there.
A blond haired boy stood up and waltzed over from where he had been sitting. He put one hand on my chin and tilted my head up, his face just inches from my own.
"Hello, princess." He purred. "What brings you to the Ouran High School Host Club?"
Only one thought registered in my mind. That boy was standing way to close. I flared pewter and put both hands on his chest.
"Yes." He whispered, unprepared for what happened next.
I shoved him backwards across the room. And man, that boy flew! Unfortunately, he confirmed that this was the place the Chairman had said it was, when he burned steel, iron and pewter to turn himself in midair and land gracefully on his feet.
Immediately he was surrounded by a mob of fan-girls mooning over him and saying ridiculous things like,
"Oh, Tamaki-kun! You're not hurt are you?"
"Are you all right?"
"You landed so gracefully Tamaki-kun!"
Outside of the mob were the other six- hosts, I think he called them- hosts trying to get to the blond haired boy.
"Boss, what happened?"
"You're not hurt are you Tama-chan?"
"What did you do now Tamaki-sempai?"
Once the boy-Tamaki- started pushing his way through the fan-girls assuring them and the other hosts he was alright, I decided that now was as good a time as any to leave. I started to turn only to feel a hand on my shoulder, keeping me where I was. I looked up at the owner of the hand, it was the tall black haired boy. Curious, I burned bronze to see if he was another Mistborn. He was burning tin and pewter-I thought his grip on my shoulder was unnaturally strong- and was obviously trying to make sure that things didn't get too out of hand.
Burning bronze helped me realize that all the so-called hosts were Mistborn. Quite a number of the girls were Soothers and Rioters as well. They were probably trying to use their powers to get the hosts to like them, not realizing that if the hosts were any good with brass and zinc they could tell if their emotions were being manipulated.
"Kyouya," Tamaki said, stopping in front of me. "Please escort the ladies out of the club room. We're done for today."
"Of course, Tamaki." said a black haired boy with glasses-Kyouya I suppose his name was. "Ladies if you would please follow me."
As the girls started filing out, a familiar figure caught my eye. One of the hosts was Haruhi, and she looked concerned over something.
Tamaki's snapping fingers brought me back to my present situation. I looked up at him, eyes defiant, mentally daring him to do his worst.
"Kyouya, will you please tell me who this girl is?" Tamaki asked. i blinked in surprise and annoyance. Wasn't he going to talk to me?
"Her name is Jones, Holly. She transferred into class 1-A today. She's originally from America but was transported here due to the fact that she's one of the only Mistborn in the United States. Certainly the only one young enough to attend Ouran." Kyouya said all this without so much as glancing up from the black notebook he was writing in.
I gawked at Kyouya. 'How does he know so much?' I thought. 'This is my first day here. If he knows so much does he also know,'
Tamaki interrupted my train of thoughts. "You mean you're Mistborn?" He looked surprised.
I slowly turned my head towards him. Really? I signed. I threw you across the room and you need your friend to tell you that I'm Mistborn?
"Hey, Kyo-chan what's she doing?" said a small blond haired boy holding a stuffed rabbit.
Kyouya looked up from his notebook. "She's signing. Holly has been mute since she was born. She's quite fluent in American Sign Language, but as you can see, that's not going to help her much in Japan."
Tamaki's eyes got big and teary as he rushed over to hug me. "You can't speak at all? Oh, you poor thing! No wonder you reacted the way you did before! You were just trying to communicate!"
What are you trying to do? Insult me? I signed in between trying to pry him off. The twins eventually came to my aid, they grabbed Tamaki by the shoulders and pulled him off.
"Uh, boss," One twin began.
"I don't think she wants you hugging her." The other twin finished.
"What? That's ridiculous!" Tamaki shouted. He shook off the twins and grabbed my shoulders. " You want your daddy to hug you don't you Holly?"
No. I signed while shaking my head. He let go of my shoulders and crouched down by the wall, sulking.
"I'll go talk to him." Haruhi said, going over to the wall and crouching down next to Tamaki.
"So, Holly if you can't speak," One of the twins began.
"How do you communicate?" They finished together.
Its freaky how they do that.
I got out my notebook and a pencil. If they know ASL I'll sign to them, I wrote but if they don't know a paper and pencil work fine.
"That's it!" Tamaki cried rising from his corner.
"What's it Tama-chan?" The boy with the rabbit asked.
I felt a rising sense of dread. I really didn't want to know what was coming next.
"Why, we are going to help our dearest Holly learn to communicate with her fellow students!" Tamaki said draping his arm across my shoulders. "And while we're doing that she must stay here with the Host Club! After all, we can't have a Mistborn running around loose!"
I was right. I really didn't like what came next.
"Now that you are a member of the Host Club you should know everybody's names." Tamaki continued, oblivious to my obvious lack of enthusiasm. "Over here we have our third year students. Takashi Morinozuka A.K.A Mori, and Mitskuni Haninozuka A.K.A Honey." He said pointing to the tall black haired boy and the small blond haired boy.
"This is Kyouya Ootori a second year student along with me, Tamaki Suoh."
"These two are the twins Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin."
"And over here we have Haruhi Fujioka! He's a commoner like you!" Tamaki finished.
"Welcome to the family Holly!" Tamaki announced throwing his arms outward.
I knew I should have left when I had the chance.
A/N: That is the end of chapter 2! Review and tell me what you think! I'll try to update every other week!
