Fast forward time, because instead of doing a whole week of endless packing and planning, it more fun to just dump them at a prestigious academy. Yay! Enjoy.
Disclaimer: No I do not own any of either Fruits Basket or Ouran High school Host club. If I did, I would have made the Sohma's attend the academy a long time ago!
The next week, Haruhi was wearing her old uniform and mounting the front steps with Tohru by her side. Her cousin was wearing the registered girl's uniform. The long yellow dress that hung around her knees with the ribbon secured tightly around her neck. Her hair fell down her shoulders freely with a yellow ribbon at one side of her hair. She looked totally normal, like she was a rich socialite's daughter who would be attending Ouran academy out of the blue.
"Are you ready, Tohru?" Haruhi asked.
Tohru nodded, taking a deep breath and then grabbing onto her cousin's hand securely in her own. "I'm ready."
The two started up the stairs with ease and finally entered the grand hall of the prestigious Ouran Academy. Its high walls layered over with decorative wallpapers, possibly more expensive that Harhui's whole apartment, which has been mentioned far too frequently for her taste, and its shining chandlers that dangled overhead. It was beautiful.
"Amazing," Tohru breathed form beside her as they walked the halls and her cousin pointed out which rooms Tohru would need to know for classes and such.
They were nearly up to the third floor when someone called behind them.
"Haru-Chan!" Honey called, running towards them, minus Mori.
"Honey-senpai?" Haruhi said as Honey stopped in front of them, Usa-chan clutched to his chest and his blonde chair wild. "Why were you running?"
"Kyoya called a meeting for all the host club members this morning, and the Sohmas too." Honey said quickly. "I've been looking for you two all morning." He grabbed onto Tohru's hand and started pulling her towards the third music room. "Come on, Tohru-san. You have to see the Host Club's room, you'll love it. And we can have cake there, and a tea party. Do you want to?"
"Sure, Honey-chan." Tohru replied, as he pushed the front door open and lead her inside while Haruhi followed.
Usually, when someone entered the Host club all eyes would turn to them and they would all be welcomed, but this time, it was different,. Because the boys were all in a circle their backs turned facing some unseen individual.
"We're back1" Honey said in a loud voice and everyone turned to face them, making some room to let them see that they were staring at Yuki and Kyo, and two other boys, one with black and white hair then other with a head of blonde curls who looked a bit like Honey.
Tohru hitched a breath and smiled widely. "Momiji and Hatsuharu!"
. . .
"So, you're some of Yuki and Kyo's cousins." Tamaki said, sitting on the couch and staring at the two second years.
"That's right," Momiji replied brightly. "And we're friends of Tohru's too."
"What are you two doing here?" Tohru asked, sitting down next to Momiji. It was Tamaki, Kyoya and Haruhi, who was standing behind the two oficals of the club, one one couch and Momiji, Haru and Tohru on the other with only a small wooden table between them. The rest of the Sohmas and host club members were preparing for their guest who were arriving shortly.
"We came to protect you." Momiji replied again.
Tohru's eyes widened. "Protect me?"
Haru nodded. "Akito was furious when he found out that Yuki, Shigure and Kyo weren't at their house. And he sent our entire family to look for them and you. He says that you'd corrupted them and needed to have your memories erased so that we could keep our family secret hidden." He leaned back against the couch. "So, we decided to look for you so we could protect you, because we don't want you to lose your memory."
"Just like Yuki and Kyo." Momiji added.
Tohru smiled. "That's sweet," Her cheerful expression turned into a more serious one. "But you really shouldn't have left. Akito will be even more angry to hear about you two disappearing too."
"He won't be for long," Haru replied smoothly, and before Tohru could ask what he'd meant Tamaki interrupted them.
"Excuse me?" He asked. "If you're here to protect her, does that mean your coming to Ouran academy too?"
"That's exactly what we mean." Haru said with a slow smile.
"This is going to be bad for business," Kyoya muttered under his breath.
"What do you mean?" Haruhi asked.
"Well," Kyoya said, his glasses shining. "I suspected that we'd have a slight change in our regular income of customers with the arrival of Yuki and Kyo Sohma, seeing s they are new and have a sudden air of mystery that our customers are usually attracted too. But now, with two more Sohma's. We'll be losing more customers than ever."
Tamaki paled. "What?"
"I suspect that our customers that are brought by, Honey, the Loli-shota type, myself, the cool type, and even you Tamaki, will lessen because of the new arrivals." The vice president explained. "I've seen quite a few girl casting glances at Yuki and Kyo, already."
Tamaki was pale, his mouth open be he finally recovered then he turned to Haruhi pointing an accusing finger. "Haruhi, daddy doesn't like this. Fix it. What are we going to do so that we don't lose all of our customers?"
"Oh, boys." A voice sang from out of nowhere with a giggle. "The answer is right in front of you."
There was a sound of gears and then, from the floor, arose Renge. She was standing with her hands on her hips, her light brown hair flowing slightly as she ascended altitude. Everyone turned to her, the Sohmas and Tohru with curiosity and confusion, the Host club members with weariness.
"Renge," Kyoya said, with a faint smile. "I assumed you'd want to be part of this discussion."
"Of course I would," Renge replied walking down from her platform and stopping between the two couches. "As the Host Club's manager, I have a part in any of the discussions that take place about its future or its present situation."
"Manager?" Tohru asked.
Renge cast a smile in Tohru's direction. "Yes, Tohru Honda-san. I Renge Houshakuji, am the clubs manager and I have a say in any of the club's business." She turned back to the Host club's directions. "You have no idea what an opportunity you have here, do you?"
"Opportunity?" Tamaki whispered.
"Yes!" Renge exclaimed. "You can have double the customers if you double the merchandise." She appeared in between Momiji and Haru, gesturing to the blonde first. "Double the boy Loli types." She turned to Haru. "Double the Cool types."
She disappeared, suddenly, and then was dragging Yuki and Kyo by their arms, as she made the stand next to her. "Double the princely types." Renge continued, cocking her head to Yuki and then smiled toward Kyo. "And even a naughty type."
"A what?" Kyo asked, shaking his head. "If you think I want to part of a couple that spends all their time entertaining a bunch of giggly girls you are-"
Renge turned her head suddenly, her eyes starting to blaze and her hair turning into snakes all around her. "What did you say?"
"I-uh-nothing." Kyo said stiffly, frozen with fear. She's worse than Kagura.
"Alright," Tamaki said, standing up and smiling at the four boys. "Renge has a point. If you're going to be attending Ouran Academy, you should be part of the Host club. So today, you four are hosts."
Renge smiled, standing on her platform as it started to spin back down into the floor. "My work here is done."
So, here am I thinking. Hmmmm how do I made the Sohma's join the Host club, because I know Kyo won't do it. I need someone that can….oh right, Renge! So now she is part of the story and will probably continue to be part of the story because I love her. Review please or I'll send Renge after you!
