I had this brilliant idea when re-reading the OHSHC manga. And no PuffyEyeBags31, Reborn is when he is a baby and Renato is when he is an adult. Just like Haruhi is a civilian, Viper is an adult Mist while Mammon is a baby Mist
A Burden (1)
"You're a burden!" It rang in her mind for a very long time. Even if she seemed fine about everything, it still rang in her mind. She knew that Tamaki-senpai didn't mean to say that, considering his personality, but people always blurted out the truth in their haste and anger. Everything about what they blurt was true. So, was she a burden?
So after talking with Kousaka-san, she made up her mind. Because of the fact that it was too troublesome to keep up with trying to maintain her appearance, she reverted back to her old self, the days where she didn't have to spend an hour trying to fix up her appearance.
Since the club was abolished, what are the reasons she have to maintain her appearance? She gave back the uniform, gave out some excuses that she was fine. She understood. She understood his wanting to get his grandmother's attention. But those words still rang in her head.
She would often insult him, not really knowing that it was really an insult due to her usual behavior, but it did stroke Tamaki's heart. He loved her, but his family was more important, Haruhi's safety was even more important.
To be a Fujioka Haruhi who didn't know Suou Tamaki was hard. Meeting each other by chances were difficult. Haruhi, who knew that she loves Tamaki, cried in privacy when she saw him flirt with his fiancé. Blatantly and obnoxiously. There was this painful squeeze in her heart, making her go to the infirmary several times. But after consulting it with Mei, it wasn't a illness, she was just heart broken.
She also knew that the other hosts were being threatened by the Tonnerre, and by association, the Suou, to stay away from her. With Kyoya, the Ootori with the association of the Suou. But they somehow still managed to go on and continue to associate with her.
She once confronted them about it, but they smiled and patted her head. Claiming that they will continue to associate with her because she's grown important to them. She cried in front of them. With the others trying to comfort her, but all she did was hug them, not wanting to ever let go.
But that same words rang in her mind. "You're a burden!" It kept on ringing in her mind. She was a burden to everyone. To Kyoya-senpai, to Honey-senpai, to Mori-senpai, to Hikaru and Kaoru, to everyone else who was a client of theirs, to Kasanoda, to... to her father
She did help the others with trying to help his family. With the Anneau, Phase II: Clinical Trial. When they all came to meet him, she pushed him. She pushed him too much about everything. About his family, but not about Phase II.
He once tried to stop her. He said those words once more.
"You're a burden!"
She ran away after that, leaving a heartbroken Tamaki and the worried hosts. They knew he had to push her away. But Hikaru was angry at Tamaki. He pulled at Tamaki's shirt, claiming that if he pushed her away, he could have her...right?
It hurt Hikaru a lot when all he would do was smile painfully and nod. It shock, his hold on Tamaki was weak, leaving him to be able to break out of Hikaru's hold.
They all decided to go to the Suou main office, deciding to talk to the man himself
He was depressed, being forced to engaged his son in a loveless marriage was taking a toll on him. But at the same time, he was making Tamaki and Kousaka-san his pawn. It was a sight seeing Kyoya break out of his composed and cool self.
She didn't have the strength to just look at him. Even if Hikaru asked her to confess to him, for his sake, she couldn't. So she ignored Tamaki while he ignored her.
"I'm sorry Hikaru" She whispered to nobody.
But she did everything even with 'kidnapping' Tamaki to visit his mother in the airport, he always went back to Tonnerre. Even if they ran together and held hands, he went back to Tonnerre. She was about to confess to him, but a phone call interrupted her. He picked it up and his eyes sparkled. She was about to grasp his hands even stronger in hers when he pulled away, but she let go, letting him talk to his fiancé.
So it went back to a lifestyle, where she ignored Tamaki while he ignored her. But they all still opened the Host club once more. With them trying to ignore each other as best as they can
The others noticed it, but those two didn't. Tonnerre designated Tamaki whenever she could. And when she did, he focused mostly on her, causing his clients to slowly decrease and move to the other hosts.
END!
I have a hard time trying to tie the two versions together. It's hard trying to fix the very different things together
