Chapter Three: Jungle Adventure
---♣---
"Girls why don't you go back outside. Your father and I need to have a little chat."
"Certo!" she said saluting Keiko and dragging Haruhi back outside with her. Ranka sat on the pale green couch hands in his lap looking down to the tassels that swept the couch slip. Keiko sat diagonally across.
"She's the way I left her. Happy. Trying to be strong even though she shouldn't if she doesn't want to." he said glancing up at her.
"Or it could because of the traumatic amnesia. You would have thought, that she'd regain pieces. But it looked so bad, so she could only remember bits. After all she was young."
"And no nightmares at all?" he thought it was strange, but if he could guess a bit, she'd probably tried to hide it carefully.
"Plenty. But she could never come to terms reliving it. Typical of her." Keiko sat sipping tea that the butler brought with biscuits.

"I'm bored." Momoe stretched lying out in the grass.
"Go stick yourself." Yuki said. Sitting down next to her.
"I'm not induced to cause self-injury. The mental place is no home to me!" she said cheerfully popping up.
"I beg to differ." Amaterasu said. Izumi who had just arrived giggled at that. She was wearing a green bathing suit with a sea green pearl and seashell necklace. She kept her shoulder length hair tied in a high side ponytail and her bright dark aqua colored eyes glistened in the sun. It took Momoe a while to get it.
"Hey!" she said. She felt an arm grab around her waist as she charged at Matte. It twirled her around and dipped her back. She could she her brother being pushed to a nearby bee hive. She tried to squirm away to 'rescue' Yuki. You could say he was...scared of bugs. More like terrified, Momoe thought squirming out of reach.
"Wanna play a game?" she heard someone whisper in her ear. She couldn't see them because she flipped over squirming. She recognized the voice (one of the twins) and asked, "What kind of game?" the person let go and she flipped over and landed gracefully on her knees.
"I like fun games!" she said clapping and jumping up and down with her eyes closed. Looking a Kaoru and Hikaru madly. Maybe she wouldn't have been a easy as they thought. She was a bit like Haruhi, come to think of it. Perhaps just dense, not oblivious.
"That's the point of games. They're supposed to be fun." they said. Hikaru had his arm draped around his brother's shoulder.
"No, actually. On time in the first grade my teacher gave us this stupid game to play and no one thought it was fun." she said.
"How would you remember something from such a long time ago." Hikaru asked her.
"My photographic memory duh!" Five seconds later..."What were we talking about?"

"Haruhi! Come look at the koi!" Tamaki called out to her. She was sitting with Hitomi at a table with a big green umbrella.
"Coming Sempai!" Haruhi got up to walk over to him when Hitomi grabbed her arm.
"NO!!! The destruction of quality time. I shall avenge the evil." she jumped up kicking Tamaki into the pond. He jumped up grabbing her other arm.
"My dear Haruhi, won't you come sit and watch the lovely koi with me? Despite that, you know no one is more lovely than you, ne?" he said trying to charm her.
"Haruhi, you the most awesome big sister ever. I just know some day you'd make the perfect mother one day. So sweet, loving and beautiful." her eyes sparkled as she looked up at her. She turned to Tamaki with rage and he moved dejectedly into the corner.
"Felice! Felice! Mi vincere, brutto!" she laughed in his face. He looked confused for a moment.
"You speak Spanish?" he asked creeping next to her. Grabbing Haruhi's arm..
"Idiota," she muttered. "If you're half European and you grew up in France for most of your life you'd think that as a rich person you'd have had traveled to Italy. I'm speaking Italian and I know it's similar to Span-. Hey! Give her back I saw her first!" Tamaki ran away with Haruhi.
"You! Minions!" she called to Hikaru, Kaoru and Momoe. They stood at attention lined up in front of her.
"Attack him!"

"Sempai! St-stop run-ing!" Haruhi said. She clung to his arm as he dragged her though trees and bushes. They came across jungle like area, and saw the rest of Haruhi's cousins and the host club members were already there.
"How did you get here?!" Tamaki said.
"Well, I live here. Don't you think I'd know my way around my own backyard?" Hitomi said. She was sitting on her thrown and Hikaru and Kaoru were fanning her with huge leaves.
"Here are the rules to my game and they are very simple." Haruhi was carried to another seat next to her and Mori and Hani were now fanning her. Kyoya and Yuki stood guard and the rest of the girls were scattered all over the area.
"Rule One: Pick two." she grinned looking at him evilly throwing him seven pictures. "Choose wisely."
He had the choice of a/an:
Angelfish
Zebra
Rabbit
Toenail Clipper
Rock
Weed
Silver Ribbon
He took the Zebra. 'Perhaps this will make me stand out,' he thought.

One of the maids were passing by when she heard a crash. It startled her she looked into the other room behind the slightly ajar door.
Keiko was standing ready to punch him and Toni was holding her back. The servant, Kenji, was holding back Ranka. Lightning flashed between them. She stepped forward a bit though unfortunately she got caught by Toni. He signaled for her to get Hitomi. Often Keiko would pick feuds and Hitomi was the only one to control her.
---♣---
She ran out into the yard and crossed the flower garden and searched. Sadly the yard was big and made up into different parts. She looked over into the tennis court, but no one was there. She ran into the maze. 'Hitomi loves wandering into the maze, but she'd never go alone. Climbing the vine, she got on top of the shrubs and crawled. Sure this was a nice life, good job to pay for her studies, but it hard to keep up with the dysfunctional family.
Keiko trusted her with Hitomi, but she wasn't sure she trusted her with herself. She left the hard labor for Toni. She could see across to the jungle area and the torch was lit. Of course she had to be there. Perhaps preforming an evil ritual. She jumped off, running through trees with twigs in her hair and petals and thorn in her dress.

She banged on the wooden gate and Yuki let her in.
"Master Yukito-san," she panted sitting at his feet. "Lady Keiko is feuding with Fujioka-sama."
"Your Highness, you might wanna cut the hostility a little later. It's Grandmother and Uncle." he said turning to Hitomi who was ready to kill Tamaki.
She stopped and ran out dropping Tamaki.
"What's the rush?" the twins asked.
"Hanako-san and Ranka-san have never exactly liked each other. Ranka can't accept that she took Hitomi away, and Keiko can't accept that her daughter fell in love with such a man. This family's history has always been with constant fighting of romantic arrangements and who falls in love with a person not accepted by either or one family." Kyoya said.
"So it's Romeo and Juliet re-runs?" Tamaki asked. He looked over to see if Haruhi was still there,but she took off.
"Theoretically, perhaps that is the case." he said sliding his glasses upward. "But very little of the family knows their history."
Yuki turned away when Kyoya referred to him. Suppose he thought of it as obvious, but it didn't have to be blunt about it. And he watched all of them rush back to the house. Romeo and Juliet, must have been a very nice book to keep rereading.
---♣---
Haruhi and Hitomi rushed into the room. Keiko, Ranka, Toni and Kenji stayed silent for a moment. Haruhi grabbed her father's hand.
"Otosan, don't cause problems. Let's go home you must be tired, ne?" she looked up at him and Kenji released. Hitomi stood there staring into space watching the three. She watched her sister and father leave silently and she stood there. Keiko moved closer to her and laid her hand on her face. She lurched back and ran up the stairs and went to her room.
---♣---
Hitomi touched her cheek. She laid down on her bed and stared at the red ceiling in her room. It was painted pink and white. Some parts of the room had blue fur and green, purple and white shelves.
She could remember someone touching her like that. Someone's face, but it was so blurry and hard to remember. She concentrated, but she couldn't think of who it could possibly be.
