Chapter three:
"What!?" The girl dressed as an angel growls as she watches from a crystal ball. "They got past!"
The girl dressed as a fallen angel sighs. "Those skeletons are weak."
"And slow." The girl dressed as an angel agrees as she turns away from the crystal ball making it no longer project the image. She smirks at their prisoner. "But surely they won't make it in time."
"Yes." The one dressed as a fallen angel nods also looking at the prisoner. "Let's get this show on the road.
The two girls laugh.
The host club keep running heading through the woods following Hikaru. They skid to a stop when they hear laughing all around them. They try to figure out how many there then a group of five witches come down flying on broomsticks only to start circling the host club.
The witches laugh their evil laugh.
"We need to find a way to defeat them." Hunny says. "Then get past and continue."
A witch fires a warning shot at Tamaki who manages to jump out of the fire balls way.
"No time." Haruhi says. "Listen." She lowers her voice so only the host club can hear her. "I'll distract them. You guys go on ahead. Don't worry about me I'll be fine. I'm smart enough that I'll find a way to defeat them. You guys worry about getting to Kaoru." She then dashes off to the side skidding a stop turning to the witches. "Hey fat noses!" She calls to the witches.
The witches turn to her in anger and she runs off into the woods being chased by all the witches that were attacking.
"Let's go." Hikaru says and takes the lead again.
"Daddy's little girl." Tamaki whines in worry as they continue.
"They probably will have more traps up ahead. About enough more to keep all but one busy." Kyouya says. "Tamaki you take the next one while the rest of us continue. Mori you take the one after that. I'll take the one after that then Hunny you take the one after that. Hikaru do your best to keep going no matter what. You're the-" He gets cut off as four vampires step out in front with hisses baring their teeth. He leans close to Tamaki. "Think like that they hurt one of us. Who knows if they hurt Kaoru." He says low enough for only Tamaki to hear.
Tamaki's eyes narrow. "You bastards!" He almost shouts in anger. "I will destroy scum like you!" He charges at the vampires. "You stupid scum!"
The vampires, now angered, go after Tamaki who begins attacking like crazy.
The rest of the host club run on ahead.
"As I was saying. Hikaru you're the only one who can sense where Kaoru is. You have to keep going to find your brother." Kyouya says.
"Got it." Hikaru nods.
Mori distracts three Frankensteins and Kyouya distracts two zombies.
This leaves Hunny and Hikaru as they continue to dash on as night is well upon them.
"How much farther?" Hunny asks.
"Not too much. Almost there." Hikaru responds.
"Good." Hunny nods.
They see a cave up ahead.
"In there." Hikaru says.
"Let's go!" Hunny says darkly as he thinks about that if Kaoru is hurt well let's just say someone is going to be in a lot of pain if they laid a hand on his friend.
They jog into the cave and slow the pace only a touch after Hikaru almost trips put Hikaru continues to push the pace as they try to reach where Kaoru is being held without falling.
Finally there is a light up ahead and they pass through it coming out onto the other side.
A space a good length inside the cave is built into a lair that has more magic stuff then one or two technology type things.
The two skid to a stop and Hikaru's eyes flicker around till he lands on his brother making him as well as Hunny gasp.
Kaoru is strung up in the air being held by what looks like shadow binds or black fabric individually wrapped around his neck, ankles and wrists. His wrists is pulled out like the star position but his legs are more close to being side by side while still being straight. He looks to be unconscious as his head is slightly turned to the side.
"Kaoru…." Hikaru says worriedly.
Evil laughter floats around the two making them tense.
