Author's Note: Second to last Chapter and it's out in a jiff! Enjoy my little woogies! Side note: It's 5 in the morning and I may be a little loopy...sorry.

"Tinman got away," Haruhi sighed in relief "thank god."

Tinman tore the wing from a Monkey's back and snatched another by the throat as it attacked him. The rest of the flock had retreated from his wrath and were following in the wake of Haruhi, Lion, Scarecrow and Usa-chan's captors. He watched them disapear into the distance and tightened his grip on the captured Monkey.

"There is no need to talk though I know you can. I have a message for your Mistress, nod so I know you understand." The beast gave a weak nod. "Tell her that long ago she stole something of mine and I acknowledged my fault in it. But now she has stolen people I care for and my mercy has expired. Tell Renge that my vengance shall be absolute and that I am coming for her." He flung the monkey away from him. "Take your wounded with you and get out of my sight." Tinman walked the familiar path to Renge's castle till day break. As he glanced up at the towers that had once belonged to his father he wondered once more at the rage coursing through him. Strange that I could still feel such things without my heart. But ever since that girl appeared it has ached again. He had walked all night and at one point had nearly been spotted by another flock of Monkeys, but he ducked out of sight and trudged on. He stopped only once as he came across an old woodman's shack. Pausing only long enough to take an axe leaning against a forgotten wood pile, he had continued his march with it across his shoulders. He now thumped that axe defiantly against the castle doors and screamed into the sky.

"RENGE!" A small brown haired head peeked from an upper window.

"Ah well this is a surprise! When my Monkeys failed to retrieve you, twice, I never would have expected that all I had to do was wait for you to show up. Hikaru, Kaoru; darlings please show our guest to the drawing room. Oh ho ho ho." The doors swung open and he was ushered in by the twin Monkeys. He was surprised to notice that they didn't try to remove his axe. After climbing several sets of stairs he entered the tower room to see his companions laying bound on the stone floor. Before he could react, Renge flicked her wrist and the axe was wrenched from his grip and embedded its blade in the ceiling.

"Tisk tisk my love, an axe against me? Even you know better than that. So much for your absolute vengance." Tinman's knuckles creaked as he clenched his fist.

"Let them go Renge you have me. They have nothing to do with this." Renge gave a half hearted chuckle and ran a finger lovingly acrossed the box containing his heart as it rested in her lap.

"As sweet and conceited as that is dearheart, they have everything to do with this. Or have you forgotten so soon that she," she pointed a threatening finger at Haruhi, "has my glasses. Did you really think this was all about you? Sweet Kyoya I already have what I want from you." Renge gave the box a little pat.

Kyoya Kyoya Kyoya Kyoya...

The name echoed in Haruhi's head like a beating drum, bringing flashes of her life flooding through. Suddenly she remembered everything: the clubroom, her fellow hosts , her father and most of all: Kyoya.

"This isn't real." Renge's attention snapped to the slim girl now standing defiantly before her.

"What did you say?!" The ropes disolved from Haruhi's wrists.

"You, them, all of this. All of it is in my head." She pulled the opera glasses from her pocket and held them as they slowly began to shift into a sword. "And you have now power here." In the span of a blink, Haruhi dashed forward and thrust the sword into the Witch's heart. With a scream Renge clutched the blade protruding from her chest and slowly faded away. The sword returned to glasses and fell into Haruhi's outstretched hand.

"I knew you would figure it out Haru-chan." Haruhi spun and smiled at the small blonde.

"Glinda! Or should I say Hunny-senpai?" The petite man appeared in a cloud of pink glitter. "And you're Tamaki-senpai and Mori-senpai." Haruhi pointed to each man in turn as they took their true forms till only Tinman remained. "Kyoya-senpai," she smiled at the metal man. "My Kyoya, how could I not know you?" Kyoya, now human once again, pulled her close and tilted her face up towards his.

"Part of you always did Haruhi." Hunny cleared his throat.

"Haru-chan it's time to look in the glasses." Haruhi looked at her friend with confusion.

"But you told me to never use them."

"That's because you weren't ready yet. You needed time to let your brain catch up to your heart. A moment to stop denying yourself what you want." Haruhi brought the glasses to her eyes. Through the purple lenses she could see herself lying in a hospital bed. Her father was looking out of the window and their were tears on his face. At her side was Kyoya-senpai holding her hand and whispering words she couldn't make out, she felt her heart leap into her throat. Hunny tapped her shoulder gently.

"It's time for you to go home Haru-chan." Haruhi nodded and handed him the glasses. Kyoya picked up his heart's box from where Renge had dropped it and pressed it into her hands.

"Don't forget me when you wake up." He leaned down and pressed his lips to hers. "Come back to me my love."

Then everything went black.

Author's Note: Time for Haruhi to wake up guys and gals I can't wait! Last Chapter will be up soon!
