Well long time no see you guys! I actually got major major writers block with this chapter so for that I apologize. But I do have tons and tons of ideas for this story (That I must organize.) and get the next chapter underway! I hope you guys enjoy chapter 8!

I do not own OHSHC but I do own everything about Yuuki Kaida.


Yuuki looked up at the palm trees with resignation, blankly staring at the brilliantly colored tropical birds that glided around.

"So…. What are we doing here again?" she asked with disinterest to her short haired friend, who had an equally resigned face to her.

"I don't know… we were more or less kidnapped don't you think?" Haruhi responded. "It can't be a dream… we were about to leave school remember?"

Yuuki made a face as she recalled what happened at exactly 3:40, right after school when the two girls were walking home…

Kaoru had appeared behind Haruhi and Hikaru had appeared the same way behind Yuuki. They both grabbed the girl they were behind.

"Target," Kaoru began

"Captured." Finished Hikaru.

A black limo drove in front of them before the girls could even protest.

When the window had rolled down, revealing Tamaki wearing suspicious sunglasses, the girls were flabbergasted.

"Good, now take them with you." He had told the twins before smiling and rolling up the window, leaving them to be dragged away at the mercy of the Hitachiin brothers.

The two girls had no choice but to allow themselves to be dragged by the brothers into their own limo and be taken to some unknown location.

"Where exactly are we going..?" Haruhi had asked a bit nervously, only for the response to be a mischievous grin from the twins.

Just remembering their stupid grins made her scowl. "This is a complete waste of my time…." Yuuki mumbled.

"It couldn't be helped, you were with Haruhi at the time so we had no choice." Tamaki replied as he lounged back in his chair with his drink in hand. "Do try to make the best of this downtime Haruhi. We work so hard day and night to keep our good looks that we deserve this mini vacation."

His charming smile did nothing as Haruhi told him with a slightly annoyed face, "Personally I think this a waste of time. I should really be studying and I have a ton of laundry to do today…"

Yuuki voiced her agreement before glancing at Kyouya, who was 'innocently' (A\N: and I use innocently in the loosest form possible…) typing away on his computer behind them. "Where are we anyways Kyouya-senpai?" she asked, the testy note in her voice obvious.

"It's a resort my family is developing called the Tropic Aqua Garden. It's therapeutic in its own way, especially since my family enjoys branching out." He adjusted his glasses with a smile. "The Otori group's interest has always been the well-being of the general public."

"Suspicious! It's just too suspicious!" both girls thought staring at him dumbfounded.

"Haru-chan! Want to share some coconut juice with me? Or do you want to try a piece of the mango cake?" Honey asked latching onto her arm.

"Sure… I'll have some coconut juice with you." The short haired girl replied as she was led away by the adorable senpai.

Yuuki watched as she was led away for a moment before allowing one of the birds flying overhead to claim her attention. She just barely noticed that Mori was also watching it, and turned to look at her.

He opened his mouth to say something but was swiftly interrupted by the twins appearing behind her, one with an open banana in his hand. "Yuuki!" Kaoru spoke with a playful grin on his face. "You wanna go check out the water slide with us?"

Yuuki shook her head, "nah, I don't feel like swimming today." She replied nonchalantly, looking away.

"Hang on what's with that outfit?" Hikaru asked, his eyes doing a once over on her clothes.

"What? You mean this thing?" Yuuki gestured to her oversized long sleeve shirt, easily covering up her body down to her lower thigh. "Well…"

She thought back to when she and Haruhi were dragged to the changing room, with twin maids smiling in a similar manner to the Hitachiin brothers.

"Miss Fujioka, Miss Kaida… just follow me." One of them had told them, making both girls very nervous.

When they had been forced to go in, they were surrounded by a plethora of swimsuits.

"We brought all our mothers latest designs for you to choose from!" Hikaru had called through the door. "Just pick whichever one you want!"

Yuuki looked at them all hesitantly. "This… is too much…"

The maids smiled cheerfully in front of them. "Are you ladies ready? It's time to pick one!"

Haruhi sighed, "Thanks…but I don't need a new swimsuit!"

One of the maids stepped forward. "Then how about you let me select one for you?" she asked cheerfully and went through them excitedly.

Yuuki snickered at her friend's dilemma.

"Oh! Then I'll help Miss Kaida!" The other exclaimed and went about searching.

Now it was Haruhi's turn to snicker at her friend.

After much bargaining and giving absolute no's to some overly risqué designs, they were both forced into swimsuits. Haruhi in an adorable pink one piece with a pleated skirt bottom, and Yuuki in a teal halter top bikini with two small thin strings tied on each side of her bottom part.

Both girls were extremely uncomfortable and sighed.

"I'm going out first then…" Haruhi mumbled and left the changing area, but not before pausing and looking directly at Yuuki. "Will you be okay?"

Yuuki nodded, absentmindedly hugging herself. "My hair hides my back so it's okay." She replied softly.

Haruhi stared at her for a moment longer before exiting, leaving Yuuki alone with her thoughts for a moment longer.

Finally, she sighed. "Might as well go then." She muttered and walked out. When she opened the door a long sleeved shirt fell off the outer doorknob.

She noticed it and swiftly picked it up curiously. It was way too big for her, but it would do. Swiftly she pulled it on and looked around.

"…Thanks." She said out loud, not really expecting whoever left there to hear. If they didn't leave it there on purpose, she would just give it back later, maybe at school or something.

"….and that's what happened." Yuuki had explained to the twins.

Hikaru had finished his banana by the time she had finished explaining. "So, you're not going to swim?" he asked, dissatisfied as he tossed the peel to the side.

Yuuki shook her head then smirked a little. "Disappointed Hitachiin?"

Hikaru opened his mouth to answer, only for Kaoru to interrupt him. "Well, yeah. We wanted to play." The younger twin told her. "Hold on, you do swim don't you?"

The elder twin glanced at his brother with a small frown on his face, a bit annoyed with the small interruption.

The long haired girl stared at the forest, straight faced. "Look, this isn't exactly my idea of fun alright? Water parks just don't do it for me."

At that, Yuuki remembered something at walked up to Haruhi. "Um, where did you get that?" she asked, pointing at the yellow pullover she had on.

"This? Tamaki-senpai gave it to me."

The new information had the twins at Tamaki's side.

"Hey boss. I have a question for you." Kaoru started.

"Why did you make her wear that yellow monstrosity? I thought you would have been all 'I wanna see Haruhi in a swimsuuuuiiiit!' not making her cover up like that." Hikaru smirked, enjoying himself.

"It was rather surprising." Kaoru chimed in, an equally amused expression on his face.

Both twins then began to whisper to each other, making sure Tamaki could hear. "I know what it is, he made Haruhi cover up like that because he didn't want anyone else to see her in a bathing suit! Do you really think that's it? That's pretty twisted. He must be one of those jealous pervert types."

Tamaki blushed and frantically began to deny it and defend himself, only for Haruhi to overhear everything and make a face at Tamaki. "So that's what it was."

Yuuki couldn't help but be amused, until she was dragged into it that is. Kaoru grabbed her and dragged her over.

"So Boss, what about Yuuki? Is it okay for her to be walking around like this? She's not even wearing any shorts like Haruhi is." He grinned

Tamaki just stared and nodded. "I guess it's alright."

Yuuki glared at Kaoru, "Don't drag me into this!"

But she went unheard as Hikaru interjected. "And why is that?"

Tamaki just stared, trying to figure it out. "Because she's wearing a long sleeve?" it sounded like a question.

Yuuki and the twins just sighed. "So clueless…"

"Hey look at this everybody!" Honey shouted, showing him sitting on Mori's back as he swam swiftly against the current pool, but they weren't going anywhere.

Suddenly Yuuki was acutely aware of water being pumped and pulled Tamaki in front her to avoid being sprayed.

Hikaru grinned. "I gotcha!"

Kaoru was still pumping his water gun. "Come on Boss let's have a water gun fight."

"It'll be me and Kaoru against you. If you get us both, you win." Hikaru explained, tossing him a water gun.

"Why would I want to play a childish game like that?" Tamaki asked, sounding completely disinterested.

It was Yuuki who had the idea and pushed Haruhi forward. "Haruhi I think it's time you settled down and got married to the twins." She laughed.

The twins grinned seeing through the plan, but Tamaki didn't, and he began to quickly pump his water gun. "Do you really think I would Haruhi marry you guys?" he turned to gaze at them with intent in his eyes, causing both twins to sweat drop.

"Daddy says NO!" he shouted and attempted to spray them.

As Tamaki and the twins played, Haruhi and Yuuki sat down to relax a little and drink some juice.

Yuuki sipped through her straw in thought before speaking. "They really like you." She stated

Haruhi glanced at her and smiled. "They really like you too."

"Me? No way."

Haruhi set down her glass. "Think about it. If they didn't like you, they wouldn't have brought you here. They could have just snatched me up in front of you and driven off. But instead, they chose to bring you along."

"They said it couldn't be helped remember?" Yuuki sighed, also setting down her glass.

"Don't be so narrow minded Yuuki, that isn't like you at all." Haruhi chided, smiling a little.

The longer haired girl swept her bangs aside and glanced at her friend. "I don't know what I'm going to do with you." She said, a smile in her voice as she stood up, taking her glass with her.

Haruhi just smiled, watching her friend walk up to Mori, who had just gotten out of the current pool.

Yuuki offered her glass to him. "So you're on break. Want something to drink?" she asked.

Mori hit his ear a few times, trying to get the water out of his ear before looking at her and reaching for the glass. "Yeah, thanks."

She handed him the glass and glanced up at him. "He sure is tall…"

"THAT'S CHEATING!"

Yuuki turned to see Tamaki slip on a banana peel, (no doubt it was Hikaru's from earlier.) and fly into a totem pole, inadvertently turning it on.

She heard a small clink and looked back at Mori, who had dropped the glass and looked at Honey, tense.

Yuuki looked in the same direction, her eyes widening at the large wave that had just swept him up and taken him down the current.

"Honey-senpai!"

"Mitsukuni!" Mori called and ran for him, only to slip on the same banana peel.

Yuuki just looked at Mori. "Mori-senpai…"

Tamaki pointed a finger to the ceiling. "Gentlemen! We have to save Honey-senpai!" He looked towards a current pool. "That looks like the quickest route! Charge!"

Just as quickly as they ran to it, they ran back. "There are alligators in there!"

Tamaki pointed another way. "Okay…then let's try that way!" He run that way only to run back again, screaming.

The twins had tried their own way, but alligators were everywhere. "They're here too!"

"And here!" Haruhi shouted as she and Yuuki both ran to Mori in a panic.

They all panted and looked around.

"What the hell is with all the alligators?" Yuuki panted.

Tamaki leaned against a tree, panting just as hard. "Beats me…"

Kyouya began writing in his notebook. "Those alligators are part of the tropical animal exhibit. I guess it is kind of dangerous to let them wander around. Though, our current situation was caused by the location of the current pool switch. I'll have to have a little chat with our designers."

With that he snapped his notebook closed and smiled. "Thanks a lot you guys, I got some really good data today."

Everyone looked at him in shock. "You what?!"

"So we were guinea pigs this whole time?" Yuuki sighed and scratched her head. "….Can't say I didn't see this coming." She muttered as they walked towards a map of the place.

"This is our current location. Honey-senpai probably ended up around here." Kyouya explained as her pointed around the map. "But to get there we have to go through deep jungle. Distance wise we're talking about 800 meters."

Haruhi looked at the map. "Looks like there's a lot of undeveloped areas… any idea what could be lurking there?" she asked worriedly.

"Since they're still being developed I'm afraid I don't know." Kyouya replied.

The twins looked at the map worriedly. "What could be out there could be even more dangerous than alligators."

Tamaki looked undeterred and even more determined. "Okay listen up!" he shouted as he had them group huddle. "It is our sworn duty to save Honey-senpai! We cannot hesitate!"

The twins nodded. "Right!"

Yuuki sighed. "Alright then…. Let's go."

As they walked through the jungle, they stayed tense.

"Wow, this place is just like a real jungle." Tamaki commented

"Yeah and I keep hearing some strange animal calls." Replied Haruhi.

The twins tried to keep a poker face, but the nervousness was obvious in their voices. "You don't think those calls are coming from the real thing do you?"

As if in answer, a bird squawked.

Yuuki glanced at Mori before murmuring. "Seems pretty authentic to me…"

She took note of Mori's straight face before looking at Haruhi. They both thought the same thing. That he was very worried about Honey.

At that moment Mori slipped on another banana peel. He stayed there for a moment, still with a straight face.

"Mori-senpai is…" Hikaru murmured surprised by the unusual clumsiness.

"Acting as clumsy as you usually do Boss." Kaoru finished looking at Tamaki.

"Shut up!" was all Tamaki could say in reply.

Mori looked up at sniffed the air while Kyouya checked his watch.

"Uh-oh, it's time for the squall."

Quickly they took shelter in a nearby gazebo, watching the rain pour down.

Yuuki was barely listening as Mori and Hani's relationship was explained, before she decided to go to Mori.

She reached out and tapped his arm softly. "You don't have to worry too much Mori-senpai, Honey-senpai is a lot tougher than he looks… and if he gets hungry the trees here are full of fruit."

The twins and Tamaki sweat dropped at her words.

Mori gently placed his hand on her head and smiled a little. "Yeah… You're right."

Tamaki then got really excited and sped up to Mori. "So she's going to be your daughter? We can have so many conversations on how our daughters are such good friends!"

Yuuki made a face at him. "Ick, no. Tamaki-senpai you're the only one who thinks like that."

The twins looked at Tamaki, "That's kinds creepy if you think about it."

Tamaki looked at them "What?! Don't call me creepy!"

At that, the twins began in a sing-song voice. "You're a little perv!"

Haruhi sighed at the sight while Yuuki slowly inched away from them.

Yuuki frowned. "We're wasting time, the squall is almost over so we could go look now."

Haruhi's protest went under deaf ears as she left the gazebo, with Mori following behind.

"Really… She's too stubborn." Haruhi sighed.

Mori went the opposite direction, causing Yuuki to follow. "Are you sure he's this way?" she asked hesitantly.

He nodded. "Yeah."

Yuuki tried her best to keep up with him, but she couldn't help being significantly shorter and weaker than Mori.

After a while Mori turned to look at her.

"Yuuki." He gently picked her up, holding her with one arm.

The long haired girl couldn't hold back her blush. "…Thanks." She mumbled, steadying herself by placing a hand on his chest.

"Honey-senpai… means a lot more to you than master and servant huh?" she asked after they had walked in a certain direction for a while. "He's not a 'master' he's family."

"Yeah."

"Even if he'll be okay without you… You'd still do everything you could?"

Mori stopped and looked at her, "Wouldn't you?"

She knew exactly what he meant and looked away, embarrassed. "For Haruhi, yeah." Yuuki felt ridiculous, and felt overly feminine in their current situation. She hated it so much.

"Are you scared?" he asked.

His question made her look up. "Of you? No. Of being here? No. Of other things, yes."

He didn't press further about what things and just continued walking.

Meanwhile…..

Kyouya had finished calling his family's personal police force while the twins were teasing Tamaki. Haruhi was just sighing and had sat down, exhausted by their arguing.

"My family's police force is going to send out a search party. They're better equipped to find Honey-senpai than we are, so let's go back to the front and wait there." Kyouya told them, talking over the twins teasing and Tamaki's shouting.

After a moment he looked at Haruhi, "Hey where are Mori and Yuuki?" he asked.

They all froze.

Haruhi sighed, "They went off just before the squall ended."

Hikaru frowned. "And you let them go?" making his displeasure known.

The short haired girl looked at him calmly, "They'll be fine. Yuuki is with Mori-senpai and they're both capable, so let's go back like Kyouya-senpai said."

The elder Hitachiin twin said nothing and turned away with his younger brother by his side, his displeasure obvious. Tamaki just smiled and followed,

"Come on Haruhi, let's go wait for them." He told her.

Kyouya followed. "Hm…now that I think about it, I didn't say anything about other guests to them… Oh well, I'm sure it will all work out." He shrugged and followed the rest of the group.

Of course, as Mori was walking, the Otori police force happened to come across them.

"Suspicious figures… You will come with us quietly!" one of the men shouted, aiming their guns at them.

"Put the girl down and come quietly!" Another exclaimed.

Yuuki, caught off guard and seeing the danger, moved to get out of his grip, but Mori held her firmly, looking unperturbed by the threat.

"Don't touch her."

The tone of voice used threw Yuuki off and she looked up to see Mori's expression. However, she didn't get the chance as one of the officers grabbed her by the arm.

Mori's eyes narrowed and he easily backhanded him away, sending the officer flying.

"The suspect is resisting, prepare to fire warning shots!" The men readied their guns and prepared to fire, only to be knocked over by a small blonde boy that could only be Haninozuka.

"What do you think you're doing pipsqueak?!" one shouted, aiming his gun at Honey.

The small boy just smiled and began judo throwing them, easily sending them overhead and knocking them to the ground.

When they had all been KO'ed the small boy pointed at them.

"Picking on my friend's is a big no no!" he exclaimed adorably.

Yuuki swore there were little pink flowers surrounding his face. "I think you overdid it senpai…" she stated as she examined a few of the officers on the ground.

"Yuuki!"

The long haired girl turned to see Haruhi, the twins, Tamaki, and Kyouya all running over.

"Oh, you found Honey-senpai."

Yuuki looked at the short blonde boy. "More like he found us."

Hikaru and Kaoru poked at the guards. "Wow, he must have really been holding back." Kaoru spoke, amazed.

Haruhi looked confused but had a swift explanation by Tamaki and Kyouya.

Yuuki looked at Mori. "Impressive senpai, Kendo champion huh? You should teach me." She joked lightly.

He knew she was teasing but he smiled slightly at her.

Honey took notice, watching for a moment before pulling Mori down slightly to pat him on the head. "Takeshi, you did an amazing job protecting Yuu-chan! I bet you were pretty lonely without me around huh?"

Mori glanced to the side. "I don't know if I'd say that…" he said quietly.

Honey smiled as they all walked towards the exit. Yuuki was conversing with Haruhi while Tamaki was loudly exclaiming his next plans of going to the beach.

"By the way Takeshi, I heard you."

Mori glanced up at Honey on his shoulders.

"I heard you what you told those officers when they grabbed Yuu-chan." Honey stated happily and leaned over a bit to look at him. "I was really surprised."

Mori looked forward again, his gaze resting on Yuuki for a moment.

"It doesn't really mean anything."

As they walked the twins lagged a bit behind, with Kaoru glancing at his elder twins face.

"What's with that face?" he asked, smiling a little.

Hikaru snapped out of it and looked at Kaoru. "Nothing. It's nothing." He snapped and walked a little faster.

Kaoru stopped. "Don't tell me you got jealous of Mori-senpai." He was only teasing, but when Hikaru paused and turned to look back at his younger twin, he knew something was going to happen. And he had no idea when.

"Our toys are ours." Hikaru claimed defensively, his eyes narrowing. "And all day, we didn't really play with both of them."

With that he turned and walked forward, Kaoru catching up quickly.

"Hikaru-"

But Hikaru didn't want to talk about it. He had no reason to get jealous of Mori-senpai anyway.

"It doesn't really mean anything."

That's when Kaoru dropped the subject, for now.
