Ella slowly paced the halls, walking without seeing. She wandered the halls she had quickly become so familiar with. She could walk them with her eyes closed, and without using magic. The day went by. Ella found nothing and everything had been going the way it had for the past two days.

With frustration Ella yelled into Gray's mind right as the day was ending, WHY CAN'T THIS GUY JUST COME OUT?!

Gray was startled. She had given him a headache and his reaction earned him a wary look from the teacher.

What? Gray thought, not understanding what Ella just yelled.

I can't find anything! He just won't come out!

He'll strike again or we'll figure out another plan. If we give up, it'll reflect poorly on the guild.

Classes ended and Ella went around the halls. Today wasn't completely like the others. Something different happened.

"Aahhhhh!" There was a shrill, girl's scream.

Ella reacted instantly. She ran to where the scream came from. It sounded like it came from a hallway or two down. Gray heard the scream too, but it was closer to him. He was there in an instant. Ella had to push and shove her way there. She met up with Gray in the hall, and looked for the source of the scream.

"Did you see who it was?" Ella asked when she was near him.

"No, and no one else even reacted. Like they didn't hear anything," Gray said.

"That's weird," Ella said glancing around the hall.

"It was pretty hard to miss."

"Even a few halls away," Ella nodded.

They walked around the hall as people trickled out, heading home for the day. They didn't find anything. Neither understood why no one else reacted to the scream. They were puzzled by it.

"Do you think it's related to the kidnapper?" Ella asked.

"I'm just confused as to why no one seemed to notice the scream," Gray said.

"Yeah, and it didn't look like anyone had just screamed."

"I don't like it."
"Neither do I, but I think we need to figure out about it."

"There you two are," a voice said from behind.

Ella and Gray had spun around to see the twins. The two from Fairy Tail looked at each other, puzzled.

"Let's go!" Hikaru said.

"Um…" Ella said, "What?"

"You two have a debt to the Host Club," Kaoru said.

"And we don't intend to allow you to skip out," Hikaru finished.

The twins went up beside Ella. They each linked arms with her. Ella could've easily taken them down, using her magic, but this wasn't the time or place and she was in no real danger. She just did not like this.

"Let's go!" Hikaru said.

"You too, Gray," Kaoru said as the twins led the way. to Music Room 3.

They arrived at the club room. They made their way in and the Hosts took their places. Kyoya opened the door and Ella stared out the window.

She had never really seen the view from the school, but it was gorgeous. She stood mesmerized, tracing the beauty in her mind. She stared out the window until she could see every detail with her eyes closed. She stood there the whole time Eventually she sketched it delicately on a piece of paper. Even once she left here, left Ouran, she could still keep that view with her.

After she finished her drawing she thought about things. She had a lot of things to think about. She stood, facing the window lost in thought. Did she need to change the plan? Add to it? There was still that uneasy feeling from the scream in the back of her mind. Things didn't fit right and where was the kidnapper? He hadn't struck in a long time.
