More stuffs for the people who have been begging for it!
. . . Well, not begging, per say. More like. . . asking vigorously. Yeah. They ask, I give.
Disclaimer: . . . Why? Why must I say this so many fucking times? I DON'T OWN THIS STUFF! I DON'T OWN ED, OR TAMAKI, OR FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST, OR OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB, OR ANYTHING!
So yeah.
I am in a really pissed off mood for some reason. . .
Okay then. Read, my nerds + geeks + dorks.
Haruhi
After Tamaki dragged Ed away, Hikaru asked in an almost deadpan tone, "Okay, what just happened?"
Kaoru shrugged. "I don't know, but it sure was weird."
Kyoya sighed. "Will I have to explain all of this to you?"
We all looked at him with nonplussed expressions.
With a slightly exasperated shake of the head, Kyoya said, "Apparently the guest that Tamaki found in the garden, unconscious, was his second cousin, Edward Elric."
"How did he get here, Kyo-chan?" Honey asked in confusion.
"I don't know," Kyoya replied calmly.
The rest of the club (excluding Mori but including me) gasped.
"Kyoya-senpai doesn't know something?" Kaoru asked, horrified.
"Okay, where are the flying pigs?!" Hikaru exclaimed, not even half joking.
"I've been in the dark on things before," Kyoya replied. "It's not really that big a deal, you know."
"YES IT IS!" the twins cried in unison.
Honey looked close to tears. "H-how could y-you not know s-something, K-Kyo-chan?" he asked thickly.
I rolled my eyes. "He doesn't have to know everything, guys. It's not like he betrayed you by not knowing this one little thing. He still knows lots of stuff. Him not knowing how Ed got there doesn't warrant this kind of reaction."
"Thank you, Haruhi," Kyoya added. "However," he continued, pushing up his glasses, "I would like to know how Edward managed to get onto the grounds and make it past security without being noticed until Tamaki discovered him in the garden."
I tilted my head slightly in confusion. "Security?"
Honey nodded. "Oh, yeah, there are a lot of guards on campus, right Takashi?"
"Mm," was the only form of assent Mori gave, but it was enough for Honey.
"Right! There are so many, but they're really good at staying hidden. It's okay if you didn't notice them, Haru-chan. They aren't supposed to be seen by students, after all." Honey smiled at me.
I was slightly astonished by this new development (I really hadn't ever noticed them), so I merely replied with, "Huh. Yeah, they are pretty good."
Kyoya made a slightly impatient noise in the back of his throat. "Yes, which makes it all the more strange that he got here without them noticing. And how could he have gotten here if he was unconscious?"
Hikaru shrugged. "I don't know, but-"
"-this guy certainly isn't boring," Kaoru finished.
Mori nodded rather fervently and Honey giggled and said, "He's definitely interesting!"
The Honey frowned. "Hey, Hika-chan? Kao-chan? Haru-chan?"
"Yeah?" the twins replied in unison.
"What is it, Honey-senpai?" I asked.
"What color were Ed-chan's eyes?"
I frowned. "Well, they looked. . . yellow. Or amber."
Hikaru shrugged. "I think they were gold."
Kaoru nodded. "Yeah, same here."
"They were almost. . . glowing."
"It was weird, almost inhuman."
"Mm," Mori added.
"I agree," Kyoya said, snapping his black notebook (was that writing on the cover? I'd never noticed the writing before. . .*) shut. "Something is different about him, and it's not just the fact that he's a State Alchemist at such a young age."
I exchanged confused glances with the rest of the Host Club.
"What's a State Alchemist?" Honey asked innocently.
Kyoya blinked. "Oh, I'm sorry, did I say that out loud? It's nothing to be concerned about. Let's just say that our dear friend Edward is a very powerful person."
My brow furrowed. "How is he powerful, Kyoya-senpai?"
Kyoya frowned. "Well, the truth is I don't have all of the details. For now, let's just say he is highly skilled in a field of science not used in our land but abundant in his. He could, in fact, be considered one of the best. According to what I've heard, he travels around the country helping people with his science. His countrymen call him 'Hero of the People.' However, he is officially known as Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist."
Hikaru yawned. "How does this 'science' help people? It sounds boring."
"Yeah. Why can't he go around beating up criminals?" Kaoru complained.
"That's exactly what he does," Kyoya replied.
I blinked. "What? But how?"
Kyoya shrugged. "I'm afraid that this science of there's is something they keep under wraps. It is a jealously guarded secret." He pushed his glasses up, allowing the glass to catch the light and turn the lenses opaque. "For that matter, their country is rather closely guarded as well. It's behind in technology but ahead in the sciences. They have old-fashioned cars and trains, no airplanes, and no Internet or television, but this science of theirs is supposedly beyond anything we have here. According to eyewitness reports, it's almost. . . magical." Kyoya laughed derisively. "It's perfectly ridiculous to call it magic, of course. We have very little proof of the existence of this science. I myself know very little about it, but that little bit includes what they call it."
I stared at Kyoya. "What do they call it, Kyoya-senpai?"
He frowned. "Well. . . they call it alchemy."
I gasped. "Alchemy? As in the dead art of turning lead into gold and making people immortal? The art that obsessed scientists failed to perfect? That's their 'science'?"
"Apparently."
I shook my head, placing a hand to my forehead. "But. . . that's impossible. The scientists of the world failed to turn lead into gold, and their Elixir of Life didn't extend life at all! In fact, it was usually poison! How could they have alchemy? And how could he use it to fight criminals? According to what I've read, it involved lots of potions and experiments. What use is that in a fight?
Kyoya had reopened his book and was scribbling things down at an incredibly fast rate. "I really don't know. As I have said, my knowledge on the subject is rather limited. The country of Amestris is in Germany, but none of their records exist on the Internet. I can't hack into something that is nonexistent. Besides, I'd rather not have the wrath of the government of Amestris crash down on Japan just because I was doing a little investigating."
The rest of the Host Club (not including Mori but including me) shivered at the barely detectable note of anger in Kyoya's voice. Not knowing something was affecting him more than he let on, and not being able to find it out was clearly irking him further.
"Well, come along," he said, snapping his notebook shut and startling us out of our trembling stupor.
"Wh-where are we going, Kyoya-senpai?" I asked, still slightly out of it.
"Well, to Tamaki's house, naturally. I for one am not letting a chance to learn more about Amestris slip through my fingers."
"Ah. . ." the twins intoned, nodding knowledgeably.
"That makes sense," Kaoru stated.
"You do love knowing things," Hikaru added.
Honey grinned. "That sounds like fun!"
"Yeah," Mori said softly.
I nodded with a sigh. "All right. It's not like I have any more work to do right now. Might as well."
Kyoya nodded, but just as he was about to walk out the door, Kaoru asked, "Wait, why didn't we talk about this earlier, when Ed was still asleep?"
With a long-suffering sigh, Kyoya turned around. "One: because he was sleeping and we didn't want to wake him. Two: because the story didn't start until he woke up, which means the readers would have missed all the backstory."
"Ah, I see!" Hikaru exclaimed. "Okay, thanks for clearing that up!"
I sighed. Jeez, what am I going to do with all of these rich people and their crazy fantasies. . . I mean, really? It's not like we're on a TV show or something. . .
HAHA! *sigh* I love Haruhi. She's awesome. She's all, "Jeez, rich people," and all the rich people are like, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT'S WRONG WITH US?!" and crying dramatically, and she'd just roll her eyes and sigh wearily. XD And she's right, she's not on a TV show! THIS IS FANFICTION, PEOPLE! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I'm crazy.
*. . . I think Kyoya has a Dea- *dies with much convulsing and gripping at heart*
Kyoya: *snaps notebook shut* Sorry to interrupt, but it appears our author has suffered a suspicious heart attack. I suppose I'll have to finish up this author's note until she recovers from death. Anyway, please review, follow, and favorite, or RFF as Lulu likes to say. The word of the day is extraneous. I suppose this could describe Lulu if she broke the fourth wall with this story, which I wouldn't be surprised by in the sligh-
Me: *comes back to life* *snaps*
Kyoya: *disappears*
Me: . . . This never happened.
Anywho, THANKS FOR READING!
Love ya! lulu
P.S. Does anyone else find it really weird that J. Michael Tatum plays Scar and Kyoya? And Sebastian from Black Butler? Sebastian and Kyoya sound similar, at least, but Scar? That's just weird right there. And Truth and Honey are both played by Luci Christian? What's up with this?
