Any bets on how long after the hosts gather it will be before Tamaki is given the surprise of his life? Enjoy and let me know what you think!
Chapter 21 – It's a Bird, It's a Plane, No It's Just Tamaki
It was finally the day that the hosts were set to leave on vacation. Anticipation was high from all of the members of the host club, but everyone had very different reasons for their excitement. Tamaki was ready to relax and hopefully spend some quality time with his precious daughter. The twins wanted to see Haruhi in her new clothes, even if they had to force her into them. Kyoya was just hoping to keep the squawking to a minimum and the baths were always enjoyable. The most anxious though was probably Mori and Hunny; they were ready to witness Haruhi unleash her new "powers". Haruhi was ready for action.
"I'm glad sensei allowed us to leave class early today," Hunny said from his perch on his cousin's back.
"Me too," Mori responded. They had wanted to be able to get to the music room before anyone else could arrive in order to make sure they didn't miss any of the action. Knowing that everything would probably happen before the club departed on their trip, Hunny and Mori needed to be situated before the others got to the club room.
"I can't wait until Haruhi shows the others what she has learned," Hunny giggled thinking about what was about to happen.
One of the corners of Mori's mouth turned up slightly, "Me too, but you know Kyoya probably knows something. He always knows."
"You are probably right," Hunny agreed, and started laughing again.
Walking into the music room, Hunny jumped off of Mori's back and immediately ran towards the pile of luggage that was in the middle of the room. They both wanted to change into something more comfortable than their uniforms for their upcoming journey. Hunny grabbed his small overnight bag that was plastered with bunnies and was about to head towards the changing room, but was stopped by Mori's voice. "Wait. We don't know if the others are staying through the end of class. We got out early; the others might try to get out early as well."
"Oh, you're right Takashi! I didn't think of that," Hunny giggled again and dropped his bag. He made sure the camera was ready to start filming, and then sat down on a chair that would give him the best view of the music room entrance. Mori sat in the chair next to him.
Mori had been right; he and Hunny were not the only ones that managed to be released from classes early. About five minutes after they got settled into their chairs, the doors opened up to reveal the host club king and the shadow king.
"Look Mommy, Hunny-senpai and Mori-senpai are excited to be going on this trip too!" Tamaki exclaimed.
Kyoya rolled his eyes. He knew that getting Tamaki out of class early with him could cause problems, but it was better than listening to his friend whine. Wanting to make sure everything was ready for their departure from school; Kyoya used his pull with the teacher to leave class ten minutes before the bell. If he was surprised to see Hunny and Mori sitting in the room already, he didn't show it.
Tamaki carried on as if nothing was out of the ordinary, "It is going to be thrilling to share in my daughter's first trip to the onsen!" He soon appeared to be lost in his own little dream world.

"Oh Tamaki-senpai, thank you so much for bringing me here with you! I love it! I have never been to an onsen before, and I am glad you are here with me. You are the best," Haruhi blushed and hugged Tamaki.
Returning her embrace, Tamaki declared, "I will make sure that you get to experience everything we take for granted, and that most commoners only dream of doing! I will give you anything and everything you could ever possibly want!" He twirled her around, and as he listened to her feminine giggle, he knew that he had been the one to make her happy.
"Thank you Tamaki-senpai, thank you," Haruhi gushed as she smiled down at the man holding her.

"Whatever it is you are thinking, stop it," Kyoya said as he hit his friend on the back of the head. He knew that if Tamaki didn't watch it, Mori would show the blonde who Haruhi truly belonged to, and it wasn't the host club king.
"What did you do that for? I was only thinking how ecstatic Haruhi will be to experience an onsen for the first time. I know she feels lucky to be able to have opportunities most people of commoner status don't have," Tamaki whined.
Mori and Hunny looked at each other and then face palmed. That was not who Haruhi was. She didn't care about what all of their money could gain her or material possessions, she was simple and still like simple things. The exception to the rule was ootoro. She loved fatty tuna, and Mori loved to spoil her by taking her out to sushi restaurants in order to indulge her cravings.
A commotion outside the music room alerted the other four hosts that the remaining hosts would soon be making their appearance. From the sounds of things, the twins were probably dragging Haruhi to the music room instead of letting her make her way on her own. When the doors opened and the trio walked inside, the twins each had possession of one of Haruhi's arms and were pulling her behind them. However, when they spotted the glare Mori was sending their way, the immediately let go of her and moved away, "Sorry Mori-senpai."
"Why are you apologizing to him? I am the one you tried to rip limbs off of and kidnapped from class!" Haruhi shouted at her friends.
Tamaki's face started to turn red and then he shrieked, "How dare you evil twins harm my daughter! Get away from her you shady duo! Haruhi tell daddy where it hurts. I will make it all better. I can kiss the injury and using the power of a father's love, it will heal!" He ran forward with every intention to embrace her, but he was in for a surprise.
Now it is important to make note of a few things. The twins were afraid of the look Mori was sending their way, so they moved about ten feet away from Haruhi instead allowing Mori to forcefully move them away from his girlfriend. Hunny had picked up the camcorder and started to record as soon as he heard the noises outside the music room door. He wanted to be sure to have everything on tape. Kyoya noticed the camera in Hunny's hands and wondered what was about to happen. He wasn't completely sure, but he knew that it had something to do with Haruhi; and he thought it might have something to do with the fact that she had been studying more than academic subjects recently. Glancing at Mori, the shadow king noticed what could only be described as a smug look appear on the normally stoic face. This was about to get interesting.
Haruhi saw Tamaki advancing on her and was ready. She was loose and got into a defensive stance ready to show the host club her new skills. As soon as Tamaki was about to grab her, she grabbed his forearm and using the techniques she had learned, sent him flying to the floor a couple of feet away. Tamaki lay on his back trying to understand what just happened while silence filled the music room.
Well actually the silence only lasted less than a minute because Hunny started to laugh. Beaming as he looked at the female host, he exclaimed, "That was perfect Haru-Chan! Just like we showed you."
Turning towards Hunny and looking directly into the camera, she smirked, "Thank you Hunny-senpai. You and Chika are really good teachers!"
"What?!" Three voices exclaimed together. Hikaru, Kaoru, and Tamaki were stunned by what just happened.
"Well you guys did tell me to learn how to defend myself. Did you not?" Haruhi asked trying to look innocent.
"My daughter just wanted to show daddy everything she has been learning! You are so cute!" Tamaki shrieked and jumped up from his position on the floor. He ran to Haruhi again in order to give her a hug and tell her how proud he was of her, but he found himself on the floor once again.
Haruhi knew that Tamaki was going to try again as soon as he popped up off of the floor, and she was ready for him. Blocking the arms that tried to grab her, she ducked and tripped him. He never stood a chance against her. "Now will you stop trying to smother me?" Haruhi growled.
"I, I, I," Tamaki stammered. He couldn't quite get his thoughts together.
"Now you've done it Haruhi," Kaoru walked up to her side, but didn't touch her.
Hikaru was not so smart. Wrapping his arm around her shoulders, he laughed, "I think you broke the boss."
"Hikaru get your arm off of me, please," Haruhi warned sweetly.
"Why?" Hikaru frowned at her. He didn't think she would try the same moves on him that she had just done to Tamaki.
"Hika-Chan, she can flip you also," Hunny explained to the younger man.
"She wouldn't do that to me," Hikaru scoffed.
Turning to his cousin, as he kept the camcorder on Haruhi, Hunny said, "I did try to warn him."
Mori nodded and stated, "He will learn."
Kaoru, sensing that Haruhi could and would do something if Hikaru did not move his arm, safely pulled the appendage off of the girl. When his brother tried to protest, Kaoru stated, "I think we have seen enough people go flying around here. We are a host club, not a circus act."
Looking from his brother to his friend, he inquired, "You wouldn't have done anything to me, would you?"
"I can and would. I don't feel like having Tamaki squeeze me to death, and I don't feel like having you two hang on me right now," Haruhi smiled and walked over to where Hunny and Mori were sitting. As she approached her boyfriend and his cousin, Mori stood up and bent down to give her a kiss on the cheek. She blushed and asked, "How was that?"
"Perfect," Mori said pulling her in for a hug.
"Chika-Chan and Sato-Chan will be proud of you!" Hunny said putting down the camera and jumping up from his seat in order to give Haruhi a hug also.
"So this is what you have been learning," Kyoya said as he pushed his glasses up his nose creating the glare that would hide his eyes. In truth he was amused about what had happened, and he hoped that this meant Tamaki would think twice about trying to embrace the small girl against her will again.
Turning around to face the others, Haruhi smiled, "Yes, Chika, Hunny, Takashi, and Satoshi have been helping me learning Karate. Starting next week, I will also be learning kendo. As you can see, I have picked up on what they have been teaching me."
"I can see that. Good for you," Kyoya smirked before turning to his best friend who was still lying prostrate on the floor. Shaking his head, he ordered, "Get up you moron!"
"Mommy, our daughter attacked me," Tamaki cried in a very squeaky voice.
"She didn't attack you, she defended herself. There is a difference, and you did tell her that she needed to know how to do just that. Now if you do not get up off of that floor, I will cancel the trip and we will not be going anywhere," Kyoya glared.
Tamaki pulled himself up off of the floor. He was still in a state of shock about what just happened. The dream he had earlier went up in a puff of smoke and he was left rocked to his core. Haruhi had prevented him from embracing her twice, and she had been learning how to defend herself. Looking at Haruhi standing in front of Mori, he saw the taller man's arms wrapped around her. He couldn't quite understand what just happened. "She was just trying to show me what she has been learning, right? My daughter just wants her daddy to be proud of her. That has to be why she used her new skills on me. I am sure of it! There is no other reason for her to send me to the ground like that," Tamaki said in a little pep talk to himself.
"I would suggest that anyone that wants to change out of their school uniform, change now. We will be leaving in 15 minutes," Kyoya instructed everyone in the room. He knew that Tamaki and the twins were still reeling from what just happened. Haruhi was no longer the small host who could not defend herself; she was learning how to protect herself from anyone and everyone. She appeared to be a good student too. Smirking, he grabbed his overnight back and turned towards the changing rooms. This was very useful information indeed.
