I'm sooo sorry I haven't updated! Just so much stuff and I haven't found time. But because I love you all so much, I'm up in the middle of the night, typing this on my phone since I don't have a computer with working internet to use. So you're lucky that I'm going through the trouble to write this on my phone! Anyways, it kind of gets heated up in this chapter so enjoy!

Haruhi looked out to the sea, on the edge of the island. She was incredibly worried about Hikaru. She knew he had a temper, but normally it didn't last this long! She had even given up on her routine and went farther into the island. She had spotted several spots that Hikaru could've used as a shelter, but there was no sign of him. It was like he had just disappeared off the island. She knew that there was no way he could have gotten off. He was too deep in the forest for anybody to see him, and it would've taken longer for him to reach the other end of the island to rather be seen, or be stupid enough to try swimming. She sighed. She knew that she wasn't going to have any more luck than she was already have if she stayed at her current shelter. She could only go a certain distance before it was time for her to go back, and if she stayed out later so keep looking for him, it meant that she would have to go to bed later, thus making her wake up later in the morning. She nodded to herself. Yes. She was going to have to leave the shelter if she was so determined to find Hikaru. Giving the ocean one last longing look, she headed back to the shelter to get some rest for the next day.

Haruhi looked around the shelter one last time. She had grabbed as many things as she could that was necessary, and she was making sure she hadn't forgotten anything. She had stuffed food in the front pockets of her shorts. Luckily, she had big pockets. The pocket knife that she had taken from Hikaru a while before he left, was stuck in a small narrow pocket on the side of her shorts, so she could easily pull it out if needed. She had also made some arrows when she was without her friend, and had made a strap of animal skin, and hung it over her shoulder with the arrows inside it. She had also grabbed Hikaru's shirt which he had left behind. She figured that once she found him, that he would be glad to have it back. She casted a look at the shelter again. It was almost wiped out, other than some scraps of food that she couldn't fit into her pockets and two fishing poles. It's not like she would need them. She wasn't going to be near water or fish. Nodding, she clutched her belongings, and climbed down the tree.

Haruhi looked under a bush, because even though she knew that he wasn't going to be there, there might be a clue that she was on the right path. But when she lifted up the leaf, she found nothing. Sighing, she looked around. She looked at every crack and corner that she could within her vision. Nothing. She was way farther than she normally searched before she left. The farther she traveled, the more she worried. She figured that Hikaru should be around there somewhere. She didn't think that he would just keep walking forever. He was smart enough to try and find somewhere to stay, but she had just passed a ton of places that would have been a great place to stay. Where was he?

She heard a noise in a bush just ahead of her, "Hikaru...?" she called. Could it be him? But then she saw an old looking man, looking skinny as ever, crawling from the bush. His pale, sad face slowly turned to face her. He opened his mouth and it seemed difficult for him to speak, "H-help m-me," he stuttered out. Haruhi's mouth went agape. This was just about the most terrible sight that she had ever seen. Will Hikaru end up looking like this if he is alone for this long? She pushed the thought out of her head, and continued looking at the man in front of her. She heard him repeat what he had said before, and she realized that she couldn't just stand there staring. Slowly, she approached him, her heard beating nervously, and reached out an arm to touch the man's shoulder. The touch made her twitch. He was so cold. It was frightening. Then when she was about to say something, the man chuckled. Confused, she looked at him. He had a wide grin on his face and his eyes seemed to stare into her soul. She shuddered. There was something wrong. He opened his mouth to say something, but then his eyes rolled up into his head and he laid lifelessly to the ground.

Haruhi stood up slowly, and started backing away from him, but then bumped into something behind her. She figured that it was a tree, but when she looked back, she saw a man with a hated look on his face, but he was smiling. "What...?" she started speaking but then he grabbed her arm harshly and she yelped. Another man appeared on the other side of her and did the same thing. She tried pulling away, the more she struggled, the tighter they held their grip. Sh finally gave up when they were holding her so tight that she felt like she might cry. Who are these people? What are they doing? She rolled her eyes at herself. The last question was obvious. She was being kidnapped. But why? So she just let them drag her across the island. She might not have been protesting, but she wasn't going to walk willingly, so she just hung there, as she was dragged.

"Is something wrong Kaoru?" Tamaki asked him. Kaoru looked up at his blonde friend, seeing a concerned look on his face. "No," he lied, "it's nothing," He was given a disbelieving look before watching his friend slowly nod and cast one last look at him, before standing next to Kyoya. Tamaki had left, yes, but his eyes were still on him. It was getting annoying. Sure, he might have been acting bad again, but that didn't mean that they all had to get in his way. They didn't understand what he was going through. In fact, they didn't even know what kind of person Sada really was. Just then, he saw the doors to the music room open, and his old friend walk in. He rolled his eyes. Speak of the devil. He didn't get why she even continued to go to the host club. She never even came to see him anymore. It was like she was just there to annoy him, because she knew that he didn't want to see her. He watched her walk over to Hunny and Mori and began eating cake with them. He really didn't even to even look at her, but there was no way he was going to let such a trained killer like her hang around his friends unwatched. If she tried anything, he would have to be there to stop her, even though he doubted that she'd d something like that in public. He was actually kind of lonely. Everybody had noticed his attitude, therefore none of his customers came to see him lately. He didn't even know why he bothered to show up at the host club anymore. All he did all day was just sit there, but when he tried backing out, everybody had panicked saying that it wouldn't be the same if he wasn't there or something like that, but honestly, he didn't think it would make that much of a difference.

When he got home after club, he was laying on his bed when he heard his phone ringing. With barely any energy, he reached over and held it up to his ear after flipping it open, "Hello?"

"Kaoru! Kaoru!"

Hikaru? He shook his head. No. That was impossible. Hikaru was dead.

"Who are you?"

It's me! Hikaru! Your brother!"

Kaoru rolled his eyes. Whoever this prank caller was, he was really trying to pick a fight with him.

"That's impossible. Hikaru's dead. Don't even try to mess with me,"

There was a silence for a moment before he heard, "Kaoru...i-it's me.."

Kaoru had to give this guy some credit. Whoever it was, was sounding pretty convincing. If not already known the truth, he would have gotten excited, and have fallen for the trick.

"Look, whoever this is, my brother's dead. Got that? So you can just give up on your little joke,"

Then he heard some other noises and the call ended. Kaoru shrugged. He really wished that that was Hikaru but sadly, he had to deal with the reality that it wasn't. Pushing the call to the back of his mind, he rolled over and went to sleep.

Hikaru handed the phone back to Isamu. They had granted him permission to call a friend to keep his sanity as long as he didn't tell him where they were. He stared at the ground. Kaoru thought that he was dead. Why would he think that? He didn't even consider the thought that maybe he had miraculously lived and was able to call him. It did sound pretty unbelievable. Especially the calling part, but it was true. He had sounded so sure. What could have possibly made him think that? He sighed and sat down in his cage. But then there was voices and he watched wide eyed as Kane and Shu brought somebody through one of the tunnels. They were dragging a girl by her arms. The girl had short brown hair, and big brown eyes. Fear pulsed through him, "No! Haruhi!"

So how do you guys like it? I hope you do because the position I was having to sit in to write this was really painful. But whether you do or don't, leave a review!
