Ouran High School Black Magic Club: Chapter Nine
Soon the days had turned into weeks. And weeks, under pressure of time so easily became months. Hanako had been a part of the Black Magic Club for two months now, as it was the last week in October. Her classroom was to prepare a scary night for the first years; little did the second years know that the Black Magic Club also had a little surprise in stored for the unsuspecting people. Taro cackled into the air, and began to quote Don Kanonji along with Takeru. She sighed, as she entered her science class. They had just had an early meeting again. God, she hated those early mornings. Her whole being perked up, as she was about to enter the classroom, she had seen Kasanoda-kun. Happily, she skipped towards him, and shouted gleefully.
"Kasanoda-kun!"
He turned and his mahogany eyes landed on her, a smile graced him. Opening his arms, he expected her to hug him, but instead, she bolted up and landed onto his shoulders. She rubbed her fist in his bright hair, and told him,
"It's October 26th! Know what that means?"
He glared lightly at her, and inquired,
"No what is it?"
"It's the day of the horrid dubbing of course. But wanna know something else about the 26th?"
He sighed "What?"
"Five days until my birthday!" She exclaimed with a wide smile.
His eyes went into slits, as he corrected her, "Hanako…your birthday is in March…"
"I know." She stated, "but being L all the time means that my birthday is Hallow's eve."
"Hey, Kosaya-sensei?" Taro asked her, slyly, "Do you know the importance of November 5th?"
"No, actually, what is it?" She gazed at him, and a cruel smirk flew across his lips. He mouthed the words to her, as to not cause panic.
"Your death day"
She froze, and fell off of the tall boy's back. Hitting the ground with a loud thud. She coiled back, and farther away from Taro, as he slithered his way closer. Her death…death day? She knew L had died, but…
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" She cried, other students turned to the noise. Hanako had taken the wall as her own, and hid in its vertex. A boy turned as well, to see her in this state. A small grin made its way slowly across his pale face. He pushed his lightweight glasses up, and closed his notebook.
"What is the matter now, Kosaya-san?" He asked with annoyance, but she didn't respond. Nor did she look up to meet him.
"Kyouya-kun! Where were you?! Daddy was worried!" Kyouya gave a look, willing to kill, and Hanako looked up at the sound of his chipper voice.
"Suou-kun….Suou…" She started, but soon went back to face her corner. Alarmed, he went down to her level, and placed a hand on her shoulder. He stared at her sadly, and asked slowly.
"What is wrong, Hana-" But he didn't get that far. As soon as the slender hand made contact with her shoulder, she grabbed it, and forcefully flipped him over her shoulder, whilst screaming,
"WHAT THE HELL! You placed a hand on my shoulder! Like have you ever heard of PRIVACY! What are you? A PERV!!"
He rubbed his head, and his eyes watered at her last statement. He crawled to Kyouya, and said painfully,
"Mommy, please help Daddy. Aunt Marge was being mean to me…" But Hanako had brought him back up, and shouted at him again,
"Did you just call Ootori-san Mommy?! What are you?! Have you no shame! And Aunt MARGE?! MY NAME DOESN'T EVEN START WITH A M!"
Taro, Takeru and Kasanoda stared at them wide-eyed. Not knowing what to do to stop it. The Shadow King exited to his seat, but not before he shifted his glasses. A glint of memory shone in his eye as Hanako yelled at the flamboyant blonde.

"So does anyone have ideas on how to scare the first years?" The class president asked the entire body. Evidently, the class president was Tamaki. Yet everyone knows that Kyouya did all his work, like usual.
"Let's dress up like Fruits Basket characters!" One happy girl said. Her yellow dress a tinge lighter from all the washes it had endured. Kyouya sighed, and put on his guise,
"I'm sorry, but I don't know how that is going to scare the first…Tamaki-kun…"
"Gomen, mon ami. I was just picturing Haruhi dressing as Honda Tohru…"
"Hai senpai! He would look absolutely adorable!"
"You think so?"
The rest of the girls nodded, and Tamaki was in the center, deciding the cruel fate for the host member. The third Ootori had slipped out from the crowd, and entered the non-wooers. Amongst it, surprisingly was Hanako. He leaned against a desk, and shifted his glasses uncomfortably. He must have been under a lot of stress that moment.
"Nothing is ever going to get done with him in charge…" He continued to rub the area in where his frames always sat. She stared at the exhausted host, and felt pity. But soon enough, the amazing light bulb, full of whimsical knowledge had turned alight in her head. She had the perfect idea.
"Ootori-san…" She started, and got out of her seat. "I have an idea."
He glanced at her, wide eyes under the glass. But before one could even say Quidditch, they had changed to their normal ice-cold stare. Agitated, he told her to hurry up. He obviously needed a Starbucks right about now.
"Well, it is the job of the Black Magic Club to haunt and panic the children of this campus."
Taro stared at her, and almost told her to stop, but Takeru stopped him, and walked towards Hanako placing an arm around her shoulder. He began in her place.
"Why not let us take the pleasure? I'm sure Dono would be more than pleased…"
"More like ecstatic."
"To help this cause."
"Yes, and if you leave into our hands then people will actually be frightened."
He thought about it. Even though it did have merits, anxiety still worried him. Why were they being so generous? This isn't like the BMC. But then again, they did have Kosaya Hanako. She always kept her promises.
"Conditions. What are they?"
"Conditions?" Takeru was taken off guard. "I don't believe I said anything…"
"The Host Club must help us." Hanako said, a serious look in her eye.
"Kosaya-sensei, what are you doing!" Taro hissed toward her. He did not like this idea. And surely Nekozawa-senpai would hate the thought. They'd all be dead. Hanako, ten times before she hit the ground.
"Just that? No money?"
"No money. Just help us to frighten the first years."
"Come on, think of the children…"
"Oh would someone PLEASE think of the children!" Hanako shrieked comically, bursting into fake tears.
"Understood. We'll help."
"Arigatou gozaimasu!" Hanako and Takeru shouted, as they bowed in gratitude.
"Oh boy, we're screwed Kasanoda-kun"
-- -- --
Nekozawa was again in the clubroom. It was around 12:30 in the afternoon and most of the club ate in the lunchroom. Sometimes, Hanako and Reiko would show up, and dine with him. The fact that Hanako made time for him, personally, made him beam with joy.
"Uzuku akari ni fukabu kimi ga tooku tte, ai maidato kono anaja tobenai.." He heard a girl singing. Though she was off-tone, she could still hold the tune pretty well.
"Kore kara no yoru o koete iku, sagasu kimi no nuku mori wo" The voice kept coming closer. He recognised the song they were singing, whoever it was. It was 'scarlet' by BRACE;d.
"Sotto kujidzuketai shimesukeru omoi ni yuuki ite, maki tsukareta hitomi nani mo koiwa tsunaite" The voice sounded pretty, and he could feel the emotiom from within the song coming out to touch his heart.
"Itsu ka kitto ieru awaku taku yaita kono kokoro… koi ga ataku fukaku dare wo kometeku…" And then after those words, the singing stopped. A few minutes later, the dark barricading door was being opened. But Nekozawa had put a curse on the door, to prevent anyone from getting in. He smiled triumphantly, until he heard a small voice through the door. He thought for sure they were yelling, but the thickness of the door blocked it out.
"Senpai, I'm counting to three, and if it's not open by three…I'm kicking this door right off its hinges!"
Crap! It's Hanako-chan! She's gonna kill me! He began detoxifying the door of its curse, and when she was at two, he swung the door open. She was about to yell three, and moved her foot up, but when the door opened, she stood still. Her left leg wandering loosely in the air. After a few moments, she smiled and remarked joyfully,
"Senpai..! It's so nice to see you again." In her hand, she had lemon rice balls and a box of strawberry pocky sticks. He grabbed the food from her hand, and welcomed her in. Hanako-chan, He thought, what would I do without you?
They sat in the middle of the room, eating the rice balls, and snacking on the candy sticks. They both laughed and talked, and laughed some more. They were really getting along, but now Hanako had to be serious, and tell him something.
"Senpai?" She asked, her head down.
"Mhmmhnnhpfh" He said. He was in the middle of indulging in her home cooking. She laughed, and rolled on the ground. He smiled, and looked down at her, watching her hair be flung in every direction. She really was fun to watch. Eventually she had composed herself, and continued where she was.
"Senpai?"
"What?"
"The Host Club and my year are deciding to scare the Hell out of the first years…"
"No, no," He scolded her, waving his finger in front of her face "Scare the Hell into the first years."
She blushed "Right sorry.." He smiled. She looked so much younger when she blushed. "Anyways, I know how it's our duty to frighten the children of the generation, so I proposed to Shadow-king that we would be happy to take the place of our grade in scaring the first years…"
His eyes, widened, and she continued.
"Taro told me it was a horrible idea, and that you wouldn't want to do it, but then I thought about how much you want to know about the Host Club." He looked at her slyly, finally catching on.
"This could be our chance."
She looked up, eyes gleaming with pride. "So you want to?"
"Of course, and Hanako-chan?" She nodded patiently; he turned his head away from her cuteness. "Don't trust Taro in what he says about me. He doesn't know me well…"
"Hmm…" She pondered this fact. The dark king paced towards his large chair, and into the darkness of the room.
"Do I know enough about you then, senpai?" She asked curiously. She blinked twice, and peered into the darkness. Not being able to find him. After a moment of calling for him, he appeared behind her back again. Just like their first encounter, but this time, they were connected more. Taking in the scent of her neck, made his instincts want to be closer, but his mind would not allow it. The heat against her back made her want to jump into his arms, and be whisked away. But it was never likely to happen.
"Do you not have faith in me, Hanako-chan?" He whispered against her right ear. Making them both shiver at the contact. "I will tell you all when the time comes. But until that day, please bear with me." She agreed, and he led her to the fireplace. Where he sat on the chesterfield and read a dark book. She, lying on the ground with her feet in the air, attempting to complete her English homework. Occasionally asking Senpai for help. They would really make a cute couple.
