~Bad Guy P.O.V.~

I stood in a small dark room, the only light coming from a small lamp in the corner of the room. A fly flew around the room lazily as it tried to find a way to escape. In the center of the room sat a large desk piled high with papers and other junk. Behind the desk sat a large chair, you know like the ones you imagiane Grandfathers telling stories to chrandchildren in or a father telling a small child a fairytale in. In the chair was a slender man, he had dark brown hair and a small salt and pepper beard and mustache. He had a strong jaw and an air of athority about him. He wore a dark blue binsuss suit one. He looked like one those actors that mothers and their teenage girls would fall in love with. The room smelled like a cigar, smokey with a hint mint. It was like a campfire smell, strong yet very addicting. The smell was so strong I could taste the cigar on my tounge.

"Well?" The man asked.

"I've collected twenty-eight. Fourteen boys and fourteen girls. And that's only the ones from the school!" I said proudly, I had collected every single one of those teenagers on my own.

"And the training?" He asked in a bored tone, I could tell he didn't care about my acheviment.

"Very well. They're almost ready to take down the goverment."

"And the boy?"

"He suspects nothing of me. I have given him no reason to." I reported. He was talking about the new transfer student from Germany. My boss had a feeling he wasn't to be trusted so I began to keep an eye on the transfer kid.

"Good. What of the new girl you collected, still being difficult?" The man, my boss, asked as he lit another cigar. He put it to his mouth and then let out a puff, I inhaled deeply, never getting enough of that smell.

"Yes. She refuses to train or eat. Can I kill her yet?"

"No!" The man roared as he stood and pounded his fist on the desk. I flintched at the movement. "I still need her if I am to get the biggest supporter of all, the Suoh boy and his family." The man sighed as he sat back down and took another puff of his cigar.

"Then I'll be going, Father."

~Host club!~

Tamaki stood up and streached, it had been another long day of classes, teachers, annoying classmates and hosting and he was ready for a nap. He had to fill in for Alphonse that day because the boy had called in sick for school. Alphonse hadn't been to school for the whole week actually. It was Friday afternoon and Alphonse had called in sick the whole week, claiming that he couldn't leave the bathroom for even a few seconds because of his queasiness.

"Tama-chan!" Honey called from the back of the room, near the snack closet.

"Yes Honey?" Tamaki asked as he walked over the upperclassmen.

"I got Al-chan a cake! Can we take it to him today?" Honey looked up at Tamaki with the biggest puppy dog eyes ever. Those cute little flowers randomly appeared around his head and started to float around.

"I don't know... He might not need visitors at the moment..." Tamaki said as he scratched his head thoughtfully.

"Please?" Honey looked up and blinked. He was truly adorable.

"Common boss! We have to bring him his homework anyway." The twins said as they walked into the conversation.

"Alright! Let's go visit Alphonse!" Tamaki cheered as he and Honey raced to the door, the twins right on their heels. Mori and Kyoya followed a little slower and turned the lights off as they left the host room.

As they walked out of the school they ran into Reine, she had dropped her book bag on the ground and was struggling to pick everything up. Tamaki got on the ground and helped her pick everything up.

"Thank you, Sempi!" She said with a smile as she took the papers he picked up.

"No problem, well, we're off!" Tamaki said with a smile, not one to steal the other hosts' costumers.

"Where are you all headed off to so fast?" She asked as she fell in step with them.

"We're visiting Al-chan! We have his homework and some cake for him!" Honey said from on top of Mori's shoulders.

"Oh! That's perfect! Could you give him this for me?" She asked as she fished out a little pink envelope from her bag. She handed it to Tamaki with pleading eyes.

"Of course, My dear."

"Thanks so much! Well, I'm counting on you!" With that the first year took off down the sidewalk.

The hosts piled into Tamaki's limo and buckled up. Tamaki leaned forward and told the driver where to go.

They sped off down the road.

"Alright men. We're just there to drop off the cake and homework. Nothing else, if he asked it was just for that!" Tamaki ordered.

"Aye aye Sir!" The twins and Honey chriped. Kyoya and Mori gave small nods of their heads.

Once at the appartment canter they climbed the stairs and headed for Al's door. Tamaki was about to knock when they heard shouting from the other side.

"ALPHONSE ELRIC! I SWEAR IF YOU EVER PULL SOMETHING LIKE THAT AGAIN I WON'T HESITATE TO USE THIS!" Hawkeye screamed angrily.

"BUT HAWKEYE! YOU AND ROY WOULDN'T TELL ME ANYTHING! I HAD TO KNOW!" Al protested back.

"Al, I know you care about Amerstris but leave this to the military."

"I AM in the military!"

"Not anymore. And you never actually joined in the first place." Riza pointed out. The hosts looked at eachother confusedly, Al in the military?

"But common! Ed and I were after that jerk first! Let me go, I won't screw it up this time!" Al pleaded loudly.

"NO! I can't lose both you boys to military duties. You've done enough for our country already."

"This isn't about Amerstris."

"Go train." Riza ordered angrily.

"But-"

"Now." They heard a door slam and then footsteps towards the door to the outside. They all leapt back and ran to the staircase. When Riza opened the door she looked suprised to see them. "Boys?"

"Hello, Miss Riza! We're here to give Alphonse his homework." Tamaki explained as he walked over to the woman with a large, awkward smile.

"Right, well he's in his room. Please be careful, I dropped a glass earlier and have yet to get it up. I'm headed for the store for a broom and grocries now." She held the door for the hosts and then shut it after them.

They took their shoes off then entered quietly and cautiously. They headed for Al's room and entered without knocking. They found Al lifting a weight on his bed, back facing the door. Tamaki put his finger to his mouth to keep the hosts quiet.

"So, what'd you guys hear?" Al asked bluntly, eyes never leaving the back wall. For a moment none of the hosts moved, not knowing to say.

"I know you're there Tamaki. What did you hear?" Al demanded in a tone so unlike his own.

"N-nothing Alphonse." Tamaki stammered. Frighted by this new Al.

"You're lying. Let me guess, you heard something about the military?" Al sighed and set down the weight. He turned and looked at the hosts with dark, sunken eyes. It looked as if he hadn't slept in days. His hair stuck up in some places and his clothes were nothing more than a muscle shirt and jeans. "I'm not angry with Hawkeye. Or Roy. Or anyone else." He sighed as the hosts just stood there blinking.

"Al, what was that about?" Tamaki finally asked, curious about why Al was calling his mother 'Hawkeye'.

"Country affaries. Nothing to worry about." Al picked up the weight again and continued to lift it.

"Al-chan, what are you doing?" Honey asked from behind Mori. Honey had obviously been hiding from something.

"Strenghthing my muscles. I collapsed Monday morning and began vomiting everything." Al explained.

"But your muscles are average size for your age." Kyoya pointed out, writing something down in his notebook.

"Stay out of this Otori." Al growled. Everyone, including Mori, jumped at this. They had never seen Al lose his temper. Al realized what he did and blushed. "I'm so sorry, Kyoya! I didn't mean it!" He apoligized as he stood and bowed awkwardly.

"It's quite alright. I did set you off from our last visit."

"Alphonse, you're hiding something." The twins said mischiviously from either side of the blonde boy.

"So? What's it matter to you?" He snapped.

"Alphonse, mind telling us what set you off?" Tamaki asked as he took a seat on the floor.

"Yeah! Then we can help you!" Honey cheered and sat next to Tamaki. Mori and Kyoya sat down after Honey and the hosts all stared at Al expectantly.

"Well, it was a long time ago. It's not important." Al said with a nervous tone, he had blown his cover. The hosts all wiggled around a bit then stared at Al, silently telling them they would wait.

"Ugh! Fine. We'll start with a story." Al said as he threw up his hands.

"YAY! STORY TIME!" Tamaki, Honey and the twins cheered.

"Okay, two young boys had decided to bring their dead mother back with alchemy. They failed. The younger boy, a ten year old, lost his body because of it and the older lost the lower part of his left leg. He gave up his right arm so he could attach his younger brother's soul to a suit of armor. They two got the older boy automail so they could search for a way to return their bodies to normal. Many years past and they were fiveteen and fourteen, they learned of a group controling the goverment and this group was working towards the goal of getting it's leader eternal life and the powers of a god. The two boys made friend along the way to help stop this group. One year later thee final battle between the two sides came and the brothers fought long and hard. When the older one lost his fake arm and was about to die the younger boy returned his soul to it's body in the gate for the older to get his arm back. The older one destroyed the group of evil doers and saved the whole country. But he wasn't done he went to the gate and gave up his alchemy for his brother. When asked how he was going to survive without alchemy the older brother answered 'I don't need it. I've got friends waiting for me.' and He got his brother, body and all out of the gate. " Al sighed after he told the short and sweet version of his life story.

"You DID read our book!" The twins exclaimed proudly. Al mentaly faceplamed.

"No, I actually threw it at a wall. Turns out I knew everything in it." Al explained as he reached under the bed and grabbed the book. "Here you go!" He gave it back to the twins.

"Al-chan, why'd you tell use the story the twins told us?" Honey asked as he swallowed the piece of cake he was eating.

"It's not... It's not just a story." Al sighed, trying to get the whole thing over with. "This really did happen."

"Of course it did, Alphonse." Tamaki said slowly as he felt Al's forehead.

"Tamaki!"

"Right, sorry." He sat back down.

"I know this story because I'm one of the brothers." Al sighed, not wanting to admit it. The hosts let that sink in for a moment before they burst out in laughter, not believing a word he had said. "What? It's true!"

"Right, like we're suposed to believ that." Hikaru laughed.

"Can you believe it? He's one of the brothers!" Kaoru laughed, falling on top of Hikaru. Al was getting angry the whole club was laughing at him. He grabbed the twins' book and set it on the bed. Clapping his hands he pressed them on the book and transmutted it into a large cow.

"Believe me now?" He asked the stunned hosts. The whole group, excluding Kyoya and Mori, started to clap at his awesome magic skills.

"Wow! He's an alchemist! Cool!" The twins exclaimed as they began to poke the cow. Honey crawled over to Al's left leg and lifted the pant leg up to reveal his ankle, a human one.

"What're you doing?" Al asked as he looked at the frowning boy.

"So, you're the younger one?" Honey asked confusedly.

"Yeah." Al nodded. "Anyone want food?" Al asked, stopping the disscution on his past.
