Chapter 6

OK, Time For Plan B

Most of the students of Ouran had given up the chase, but a few groups remained diligent in the quest; such as the Host Club, the Orchestra Club, and the Media Club. Nyoko preferred to call them The Prostitutes, The Band Geeks, and The Paparazzi. Another afternoon spent in the Black Magic Club Room, avoiding her wedding-crazed onee-sama, was just the prescription needed to cure her headache.

She thought of her upcoming birthday party and wondered who she should invite. Definitely Rookie. They had become very good friends during the 7 times she had been abducted by the Host Club, and had even been to Rookie's apartment and talked with Ranka-san.


(Nyoko POV)

That was a weird conversation, as he kept opening and closing the front door, as if to looking for something or someone that wasn't there.

Did they have stalker problems or was her just neurotic? Maybe both.

"He's looking for Tamaki-senpai," Haruhi told me after I sent her a questioning glance.

I sighed.

Seriously, when is Blondie-Boy going to man it up and confess? She's not the type of girl to wait forever.


(Honey POV)

I was having cake with Usa-chan and Takashi when Kyo-chan appeared with the twins, carrying a large wooden box.

Tama-chan immediately ran over and asked, "Kyouya! What is this wonderful addition to the music room?"

"Well Milord-" Kao-chan started.

"-it's called-" Hika-chan added.

"a box." They both said together. I was always envious of their twin-speak...

"A box! How delightful! What do you do with it?" Tama-chan questioned with an excited look on his face, not catching their sarcasm.

"You open it." they said, sharing identical smirks.

The blonde junior crept forward to try to open the wooden crate. I knew something was wrong with it when the twins started snickering.

I ran forward, abandoning my half-eaten piece of cake, grabbed Tamaki's leg and said, "Tama-chan! Don't do it!"

He stopped and looked down at me. "Doushite?" (why)

"It's something bad. You must come eat cake." I tried to drag him towards Takashi, but he must have been eating extra helpings of dessert, as I was only able to drag him half-way there.

"Mom! Is it really something bad?"

"No, you idiot. It's our secret weapon for the bet." He simply stated.

"What is it, Kyo-chan?" I asked, a little sad that I was played by the twins.

He reached to grab a rope and pulled. Inside the box were strange clothes (not unlike the ones Nyo-chan always wears), cosmetic boxes, and many bottles of hair products.

I was amazed at the items Kyo-chan had bought and asked, "What are we going to do Kyo-chan?"

He looked at me for a few seconds before answering, "Have you heard of the saying 'If you can't beat them, join them', Honey-senpai?"

I nodded for him to continue.

"Well, if my observations are correct, Mizuiro tries to be the opposite of everyone else. Using the unproven theory of reverse psychology, we can turn her into a lady if we dress in her genre."

At this statement I wondered if Kyo-chan had gone insane. Maybe he had run out of ideas, Takashi told me that later. But I agreed to go through with the plan, happy that I would be helping in this one.

I sat back down with Usa-chan and watched as Tama-chan argued with the Shadow King over his direct rule, and when that failed, Tama-chan whined about having to be as weird as Nyo-chan. Come to think of it, Nyo-chan isn't thatstrange, only her fashion sense, her joining Neko-chan's club, and her unwavering tomboy attitude.

So if Kyo-chan thinks that he must use reverse psycolopoly to get her to act normal, he is insane. And if he's insane, then I must also be crazy, and if I'm crazy, then Tama-chan must be insanely insane because Kyo-chan is the most sane person I know; other than Takashi and Haru-chan and Nyo-chan and Usa-chan... Okay, maybe he isn't as sane as I thought... Oww... Thinking hurts...

I wonder where Haru-chan is. We need her to open the club.


(Haruhi POV)

I ran through the halls of Ouran trying to find my shoe. Someone apparently thought it would be funny to steal it while I was sleeping during English. It was probably Hikaru. Grr.

Note to Self: Don't fall asleep in class, even if you pulled an all-nighter for a project.

Speaking of the "Devil Spawn", as Nyoko says, I can't believe what they tried to get Nyoko to blush.

Those annoying prats pulled their "you-have-something-on-your-cheek" routine. The poor girl slapped them both and then ran off, right in the middle of our weekend plan making.

Much to Tamaki-senpai's pleasure, I have a female friend, even if she doesn't act like a female all the time. We were going to have a study session at her house (which is huge by the way) and then go see about cake designs for her sister (who is as nazi-esque as Nyoko says), but no definite plans were made due to the interruption.

Ah! There it is! Damn, I'm too short to reach.

I spotted a flash of green hair and called, "Nyoko! I need you and your freakishly tall height to help me get my shoe."

She laughed and came to my rescue. I always wondered if one of her birth-parents were foreign, because she towers over her family members by at least 12 cm.

I thanked Nyoko and was about to go when a thought occurred to me. I ran after the girl and stopped her, panting due to the short run (I really need to exercise more).

"Nyoko-chan, we never finished the weekend plans. What are we doing?"

"Oh. Um. Same thing we were thinking? Study then cake testing?" She asked with a distant look on her face, obviously not paying full attention.

"Sure." I didn't really want to talk to her when there was something else on her mind. I continued on my path to the Third Music Room, hoping that Kyouya-senpai didn't add my lateness to my debt.
