Dierck:

Dierck loved secrets. It didn't matter what the secret was or even how important it was. A secret was a secret and should always be held sacred.

So when Dierck head that Elise was coming back to Japan and didn't know that Akihiko was in the Host Club he knew that this was one of the best secrets of all time. In fact, it was quite possibly the best one.

Dierck remembered when the Suoh's had moved away. Christmas and other gatherings had never been the same without Elise. She had been the glue that held them together. Without her Akihiko lost his spark, he became a shadow that merely watched the world go by. Without her Genji and Fusao retreated into their own private world, one that was only large enough for each other and their martial arts. Without her Dierck was nothing but a jock in the eyes of all.

When she left their group had fallen apart. Akihiko had begun to spend most of his time alone, he never called Dierck or the twins and since they were in different grades they almost never saw him in school. Dierck had tried to stay close to Genji and Fusao, but when they reached middle school it became almost impossible.

Genji and Fusao had joined the kendo and karate clubs while Dierck had joined the soccer team. By the time they were in their second year of middle school they never spoke to each other outside of gatherings thrown by their parents. Genji was the kendo captain and many considered him an even better fighter than his Cousin Mori, despite the fact that he was the shortest person in the club. Fusao was captain of the karate club and everyone considered him better than Hunny had been and scarier than Chika.

Dierck probably would've been lonely, except for the fact that he was the best soccer player that Ouran had ever seen. Once he joined the team they never lost. It wasn't just his skill though; he also had an air about him that invited everyone to trust him with anything. It was this air that caused people to tell him their secrets and it was this same air that let them trust him on the field and follow his lead.

Everything changed for Dierck when he entered the Ouran High School. It just happened to be the year that three new members were invited in and so Dierck found himself once again in the same social circle as Genji, Fusao, and Akihiko.

Dierck smiled to himself as he remembered their first meeting together over the summer, which was held at Akihiko's mansion. Kozo, the club president, had told Akihiko to acquaint the new boys with the rules of the club. They had all sat around the room, staring awkwardly at each other, until Genji broke the silence by asking if Akihiko's cook still made those delicious cookies. After that the years seemed to melt away and they were children again. Though Dierck had been well aware of the hole in their midst that could only be filled by Elise.

This was why he had been extremely excited to overhear his mother and Aunt Haruhi discussing a plan to get Elise to like Akihiko again. He wanted Elise to be part of their group again. If this was to happen though, Dierck would have to tidy up a problem that the adults were overlooking: the fact that Elise and Akihiko would both be in Class 1-A.

At the moment Dierck was trying to accomplish this while also attempting to shoot alien scum on Genji's PS6. "I have an idea for the first day of school."

"Oh? What is that Dierck?" Fusao asked as he tried to use the scope on his gun to get a perfect head shot.

"We should play hooky and go spy on the girls over at Lobelia. You know nothing important gets done on the first day of school. Hah! Got you!" Dierck managed to use his sword to slice open some alien.

"What about Host Club? Don't forget that you agreed to show up to every meeting when you joined." Akihiko reminded him as he jumped into a vehicle and went off to search for more aliens to disembowel.

"We'll be back in time for it of course; after all, there is an hour between school ending and the club starting." Dierck finish saying this as the battle ended with the humans winning.

Akihiko turned to face the other boys. "Well, I'm ok with it, as long as we don't get caught. My dad will KILL me if I get caught skipping."

The other boys all grew quiet for a moment and pictured their Uncle Kyoya and his Shadow King glare. This caused all of them to shiver and say to Akihiko "Don't worry! We won't get caught!"

Kyoya and Haruhi:

Kyoya reached over and muted the monitor. "That was masterfully done Haruhi and Chiye. Dierck played right into our hands." He grinned one of his famous Shadow King grins.

Kaoru chuckled to himself. "And to think, they're afraid of you finding out about what you actually want them to do. Also, when did you put video cameras in Hunny's mansion?"

Haruhi stifled a giggle. "Kaoru, they're right to be afraid of Kyoya finding out. If they're sloppy enough to get caught then they deserve to be punished. By learning how to not get caught they also learn how others will use this; thus allowing them to become better at spotting people attempting to pull the wool over their eyes."

Chiye clapped. "Well said! Now, don't we need to get to the airport to greet Tamaki, Alianore, and Elise?"

Kyoya stood from his chair. "Yes we do Chiye. Oh, Kaoru, I installed cameras in everyone's mansions when we were still in High School, it was remarkably easy by the way."

Kaoru stood there, frozen at the news, as everyone else left the room. Once he unfroze he ran after them yelling: "Kyoya! How dare you! That's an invasion of privacy!"

Kyoya turned around halfway down the hallway and shot Kaoru a quick grin. "Idiot, I only turn them on for important things, like this." Then Kyoya put his arm around Haruhi went out to the limo, leaving Chiye and Kaoru to follow.

Author's Note: Here's another part, I'm just building up to their first meeting. And believe it or not, they years do actually match up so that three people would join the Host Club in 2032, lol. I did that by accident actually. In case people can't remember who Fusao, Genji, and Dierck are I'm including the family tree again at the bottom. Next chapter might be their meeting. Possibly only though, I may do some more building up, I'm not sure entirely yet though. So R&R and tell me what you think. I love to read your comments. I must say though, that this was not one of my more favorite chapters to write.
