Chapter 8

Haruhi knew they were going to get in trouble. The room was not clean, despite how hard (terribly) the Hosts worked that day. She spent the whole meal worrying about what the Captain was going to say. The other Hosts most definitely didn't have that worry. They spoke happily to the others on the table, complaining here and there about the quality of the food.

"Haru-chan," Honey said, tugging on her sleeve. "Where's Usa-chan?" This was asked as they began to leave the mess hall, though the question made Haruhi freeze. "Haru-chan?"

"D-don't worry," Haruhi stammered, imagining what Honey would do if she'd lost his beloved bunny. "He's just upstairs, where we were cleaning up. I'll just go get him."

Haruhi turned, ready to flee from the room, where someone else enterered. His face held annoyance as he held a stuffed bunny for everyone to see. "Whose is this?"

"You found Usa-chan!" Honey exclaimed, rushing forwards to Levi, who found a strange sense of power in being taller than someone. Levi didn't answer, just pulled the bunny higher into the air, refusing to give it to Honey.

"This is yours?" Levi asked in disbelief. How old was this kid? Honey nodded eagerly, reaching up for bunny. He then asked the question he thought, getting an answer that shocked him. "Eighteen," Honey answered, smiling at him.

Levi scowled. There was no way he was eighteen and if he was, it was about time he grew up. "You aren't getting this back," he told Honey, causing all of the Hosts to look fearful.

"Boss," Hikaru whispered, "Honey's going to-"

"Kill him," Kaoru finished, staring in horror. "What do we do?"

"Hide and protect your lives!" Tamaki whispered back, trying to get as far away from Honey as possible.

"What about Haruhi!" Hikaru asked. "She's right in the middle of it!"

With a shock, Tamaki realised that his little princess was in danger. "Daddy will save you!" He shouted, running up to Haruhi and attempting to pick her up. "Senpai," she sighed, a bit conscious of all the eyes on her. "Stop it."

"Honey's about to explode!" He warned her, dragging her a few feet back. Tamaki gave Mori a look, begging him to do something.

"This bunny," Levi scowled at the word, "is being burned, do you understand?"

Honey sniffled, staring at Usa-chan. "You can't hurt Usa-chan!"

Levi turned, ready to leave, when a sharp kick to his head knocked him to the floor.

The room was silent.

Levi looked back, staring at Honey, who had quickly changed from his cute self, to his martial arts self. "Give Usa-chan back!"

"Did you just kick me?" Levi questioned in disbelief, while standing up. "You'll pay for that."

"Give Usa-chan back!" Honey repeated, glaring at Levi. Levi chucked the bunny to the floor, where it skidded along before bumping into the wall, coming to a stop.

That's when Honey snapped. In a second he was on Levi, flipping him over and returning him to the ground. Honey kept his grip on Levi's arm, while his face was shoved into the floor. "Apologise to Usa-chan!" Honey demanded. Levi stayed silent. He would not apologise to a stuffed toy, "Apologise!"

Levi struggled on the floor and managed to get Honey off him. He stood up slowly, glaring at Honey all the while. "Levi," Chief Erwin said, as Levi went to retaliate. "Enough."

While he wanted to, Levi knew better than to ignore a direct order from one of his superiers. "Fine." With the glare never leaving his face, he exited the room, the silence from the onlookers never breaking.

"Usa-chan!" Honey beamed, hugging the bunny, and looking as cute as ever.

All the Survey Corps members stared in shock, while the Hosts began to relax.

Tamaki sighed in relief. "Another catastophe missed."

"That was close, boss," Hikaru noted. "Honey almost killed that guy."

"I don't think they'd have allowed that," Haruhi told them. "Armin said he was one of humanity's strongest, they need him."

Haruhi walked over to Honey, glad to have gotten Tamaki off her. "I'm sorry, Honey-senpai. I'll take better care of Usa-chan next time."

"It's okay," Honey smiled. "Everything's okay now."

"How?" Erwin asked, in a small state of shock.

This was when Mori returned to his place next to Honey. "The Haninozuka's are known for their martial arts skills."

"So are the Morinozuka's," Honey told him. Mori nodded.

Chief Erwin thought for a moment, before asking "how would you feel about learning how to kill titans?"
