DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN OURAN IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM
"Mother," said Will walking into his mother room.
"Yes?" said Haruhi.
"I heard Grandfather died," said Will.
"Oh yeah, he's gone," said Haruhi.
"You must be thrilled," said Will.
"Well not so much. What he's done is still going to forever plague us," said Haruhi as she patted the spot on the bed next to him.
"Do you want me to leave you alone for a moment?" asked Kaoru.
"For now," said Haruhi.
"Alright," said Kaoru, patting Will's hair, "It'll be okay kid you'll see."
"Thank you Father Kaoru," said Will. "So Mother seeing as how everyone thought Father was dead does this mean he's going to be the one that'll take over or I am suppose to?"
"Well your father is currently talking to his brothers and sister about this so we'll see what happens," said Haruhi, "Do you want to be the one that take over?"
"I think I could manage it," said Will.
"I bet, well like I said let's see what happens when your Father comes home," said Haruhi. Will nodded.
"Are you okay about your grandfather being gone?" asked Haruhi.
"To be honest the man scared me," said Will, "And I think he should have to answer for what he did."
"Well he had everything taken away already. So all he really had left was his life and now that's gone. So I think that now that he's gone it'll be just fine," said Haruhi.
"Dose this mean you won't think about killing yourself again?" asked Will. Haruhi gulped.
"Right I forgot you knew about that," she said sheepishly.
"I was actually really upset about that Mother," said Will.
"I know and I'm sorry. I was weak and upset and it made me do something foolish. I should have never tried to leave you kids again," said Haruhi.
"Yes you shouldn't have," said Will.
"You are so much like your father," said Haruhi, "Will I am sorry about what I did. Can you forgive me?"
"Of course, assuming you never try it again and the next time you feel upset you just get help," said Will.
"I shall I promise," said Haruhi hugging her son.
"Mother, I know my grandfather is just taken care of but will happen with Gram Hitachiin?" asked Will.
"That I don't know," said Haruhi. To be honest she hadn't had much time to think of that woman. Most of her thoughts had been to both Yoshio and her back from the dead husbands.
"That may be something I may have to talk over with your Father Kaoru and his brother."
"Should I be calling him Father Hikaru?" asked Will.
"Sure go ahead," said Haruhi, "Along with the other two if you please."
"Very well Mother," said Will. Haruhi smiled and did her best to get up.
"Where are you going Mother?" asked Will.
"To talk with your Father Kaoru and Hikaru about their mother and what they want to do," said Haruhi.
"Why don't I go get them for you instead?" said Will.
"Oh Will you are a good boy," said Haruhi as her son walked off.
"Haruhi, you wanted to talk to us?" asked Kaoru as he and Hikaru walked into the room.
"It's about your mother," said Haruhi.
"Our Mother, what about her?" asked Hikaru.
"Well there is that little matter about her kidnapping the boss and Kyoya and making everyone thinking they're dead," said Kaoru.
"Oh yeah I forgot about that," said Hikaru.
"Do you know what happen to her?" asked Haruhi.
"Well she confessed to everything she did regarding taking Kyoya and the boss in exchanged for a plea deal of just being put house arrest which she took in the form of one of our penthouses so that the paparazzi won't harasses Dad or Ageha too much," said Kaoru, "Why did you want to see something else happen to her?"
"I don't know," said Haruhi, "I mean I am beyond mad at that woman for taking Kyoya and Tamaki away from me. But at the same time I'm a little bit sympathetic towards her since she did it out of grief and anger and not for her own selfish needs. Plus she was always nice to me, even when she was going a little bit psycho over you and I got married Kaoru. Yoshio was always stern with me, even when I was married to Kyoya."
"Did you want to talk to her?" asked Kaoru.
"Maybe I should," said Haruhi, "Finally get my feelings out about what she did."
"Okay, let's go then," said Kaoru.
"Mom?" said Kaoru as he and Hikaru helped lead Haruhi into the big penthouse that probably would have fit Haruhi's old apartment at least six times. They found the woman in the living room sitting on a plush white couch just staring out the huge window.
"That's usually what she does all day when she's not locked up in her sketch room just drawing away," said her housekeeper.
"Mom?" said Kaoru again as he walked over to her. His mom slowly turned around.
"Oh hello Kaoru," she said softly.
"Mom, Haruhi's here to see you," said Kaoru.
"Haruhi?" said Yuzuha surprised.
"Yes she'd like to talk to you," said Kaoru.
"She does?" said Yuzuha, "why?"
"We have to talk," said Haruhi as Hikaru helped her walk into the room.
"Haruhi," said Yuzuha, "I heard you tried to kill yourself."
"Yes there was that," said Haruhi as she sat down across from the woman. "But I got help. That's why I feel like I can talk to you rationally here and now."
"Oh please let me save you the trouble. I took away your husbands and your children's fathers. I did an unforgivable act and I will never be allowed to see my grandchildren again because of it. I'm a horrible person and I should just rot in hell for it," said Yuzuha looking back out her window.
"Well there was a little bit of that, But I would take out the part of never seeing your grandchildren and you rotting in hell and I would change horrible with just bad," said Haruhi, "And the truth is I'm not as mad at you as I was at Yoshio. Even though I really cannot forgive you for taking Kyoya and Tamaki away from me and making my life even more miserable and making me have to be locked away for two years away from my kids. However I at least can sympathies and somewhat understand what it is you did. You were upset over losing your sons and were upset to see moving on. So I guess what I want to say is I may never want to see you or think about you again, but I won't deny you the right to see your grandkids if they want and I like to think if you're really sorry for what you did you won't go to hell. Good-Bye Yuzuha." At that Haruhi stood up and let Hikaru help her out of the room.
"I guess I could have gotten off worse," said Yuzuha as she started to cry, "I mean I heard your friend Kyoya took everything away from Yoshio and now the man's dead."
"Yeah you still have time to think about what you did," said Kaoru, "I'm surprised Haruhi's letting you get off that easy. I can't."
"What do you mean?" asked his mother.
"When you took Kyoya away, you took away my friend Mom and you made my other friend suffer. Then went and did the same thing when you took her other husband away from her. You made her suffer greatly. I was so upset when I found out you did that as well."
"So then," said his mother.
"It'll be a while before I could ever see you again. I don't know about Hikaru. I'm sorry Mom, but you should more or less consider this good-bye," said Kaoru as he got up and walked away.
Yuzuha sat there for a moment as tears began to form in her eyes.
"Mom," said Hikaru as he walked back into the room.
"Hikaru please let me be for a moment. I, I can't really look at you right now, not after what your brother just said to me. Please, just let me be," said Yuzuha.
"Alright," said Hikaru as he started to walk out of the room, "We can talk later."
Yuzuha didn't anything.
'They're both right. I did some terrible things and now I'll forever be punished for it. There's no argument over it.' she thought sadly as she looked out towards her window again despite the blur vision in her eyes due to her tears.
The air was tense on the way home. Both Kaoru and Haruhi looked miserable.
"Will you two lean to relax? You're bumming me out," said Hikaru.
"Hikaru shut-up," said Haruhi, "Please just once."
"Sorry," said Hikaru, "By the way Kaoru what happened between you and Mom? She didn't even want to see me."
"I just told her how I felt about what she did is all. I know you could never understand Hikaru, so please don't bug me about it," said Kaoru.
"Geeze," said Hikaru.
When the three got home, Kyoya had gotten home as well.
"Hello Kyoya, how did it go?" asked Haruhi.
"Well mostly we just discussed what we had to do about Father's funeral. There's still much much more to work out now that he's gone," said Kyoya.
"So does that mean who's technically the family's main successor?" asked Haruhi.
"Yes why?" asked Kyoya.
"I only ask because Will wanted to know who was technically in charge now that your father's dead and everyone thought you were dead this whole time," said Haruhi.
"That is one of the details I made sure we saved for later. Right now all I care about is making sure my father get's the proper send off."
"Dropping him naked off a cliff sounds fair," said Hikaru.
"Or you can chop his body up into little pieces and feed him to some dogs," said Kaoru.
"I shall take that into consideration," said Kyoya.
"Kyoya, just promise me Will's not going to get hurt over this, since he was first in line to follow your father. I can't help but think there's going to be other people that may try to get to him, including your brothers and possibly their sons," said Haruhi.
"Oh don't worry Haruhi. Our son is in good hands, and no one will ever hurt him. Not if they want to feel my wrath," said Kyoya.
"And that is all she wrote." Kaoru muttered.
"That's the demon king for you." Hikaru muttered.
