Chapter 4


Sorry everyone I was late. I was just lazy. Anyway don't expect and new chapters for a week because I will be in Ohio with some of my mom's family and they live in the woods. Plus they don't like a lot of electronics, so I figured you guys deserved one more chapter before I leave Tuesday. Enjoy and please review!


Haruhi's day was fine until six men tried to kill her. She was out in the woods searching for berries for her lunch when she heard a scream. 'Oh dear I no one is hurt.' She thought. Never the less, she put up her black hood and cloak and walked towards the place she heard the scream. She ended up by the road that lead one way to the small village and the other way the Middle Kingdom (Haruhi's Kingdom). Then she heard voices again, but they were very faint. She checked to see if her cloak and hood were secured then started walking slowly out of the forest. The bushes rustled as she walked through, and she accidentally stepped on a large stick and it broke with a loud "SNAP". Just as she reached the road she turned and saw six men dressed very nicely who were charging at her, with SWORDS! She did the most natural thing. Run! 'Damn! My day was fine until this happened! Why do strange and bad things always happen to me! WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?!' Haruhi thought as ran for her life. Quite suddenly she was surrounded and as they lifted their swords the taller blonde said something that confused her completely. "Die beautiful, prince eating, monster!"

As the swords fell Haruhi was having some thoughts. 'I am NOT a monster. Where did he get that. I just wanted to live my life my way.' "AHHHHHHHH!" she screamed while lifting her hand to vainly try to block the swords. Then, she heard a loud "Crash." She looked up and there were six swords hovering above her. She wondered why they hand stopped when she noticed she was surrounded by a light blue force field. Each of the men stared in shock. Then one of the brunettes cleared his throat and he and the other brunette sheathed their swords. The rest followed suit. Slowly Haruhi removed her barrier, but on accident her hood fell off. "We are truly sorry, miss. My companions had startled me a few minutes ago and I was still wound up from it. I am sorry we attacked you." The taller blonde said.

"Who told you what?" Haurhi asked. She looked at all of the men for the first time. There were two men that looked exactly the same. They both had ginger hair and golden eyes with matching mischievous smiles. The blonde that spoke had beautiful blonde hair with blue eyes. The other blonde was short and had large brown eyes. The tall brunette was easily the tallest and had light brown eyes while the other hand brownish-black eyes with glasses that made him look very intimidating at times.

"The twins over there told me about a monster spider that takes the form of a human that eats beautiful princes." The taller blonde told her.

"It was so funny!" One twin said. "He screamed like a little girl!" The other continued. Both burst out laughing.

"I heard you! I was gathering berries in the woods when I heard you scream! I wanted to see if you were alright." Haruhi realized. The twins laughed even harder while the blonde blushed. "So are you guys going to tell me which princes you are or do I have to drag it from you." All of the boys looked at her stunned until… "How do you know we are princes, miss?" The brunette with the glasses asked.

She pointed a finger at the blonde with blue eyes. Everyone looked at him then back at her. "He said he heard a story that a monster spider ate beautiful princes." She explained.

"Fair enough, I am the third prince of the kingdom of the sea. My name is Kyoya." The brunette with glasses said. The next one who spoke was the shorter blonde. "Wow! You are really smart! I am Prince Mitsukuni Haninozuka of the rivers, but you can call me Honey! This is my cousin Takashi Morinozuka of the forests, and you can call him Mori." Honey started bouncing around excitedly. Haruhi looked at the tall brunette who Honey was pointing to. "Yeah" He said in confirmation. "We are Hikaru…" The twin on the right said. "And Kaoru…" The twin on the left said. "Hitachiin, of the mountains!" They finished with a smirk. "And I am Prince Tamaki Souh of the valley. What is your name and how do you know magic?" He asked her. 'I won't lie, I Just won't tell the whole truth' she thought as everyone looked at her for her answer. "My name is Haru, and I learned magic from my mom. She worked at the palace in the Middle Kingdom." She sighed in relief when all of them accepted her answer. "It is almost dark (This had taken a long time, and because of all the trees it got darker sooner) , would you like to stay at my place for the night. It might be a little cramped, but it is better than sleeping outside." She asked nervously. They all looked at eachother. "Just let us get our horses then we will head over to your place." Tamaki said.

A few minutes later.

"Thank you again for your hospitality, Haru." Kyoya said. "Well I couldn't leave six princes in the woods for the night." Haruhi said as they made their way to her cabin.
