Chapter 1:Saku

Sunlight cascaded through the window of a small violet and white room. The form on the bed shifted slightly before settling back in comfort. However their peace did not last long. A small alarm clock in the shape of a star began to ring loudly 'til a pale hand stretched out from under the cover to try and find it's off switch. Much to the persons dismay, they couldn't. Groaning was heard as they threw the covers off and grabbed the clock. The petite girl quickly turned it off and set it back on the stand. She then yawned and tried to rub the sleep out of her eyes. It was here, the first day at another new school. At least this time they didn't have to move.

Violet eyes blinked open and looked to the chair by her bathroom door. There on it was a yellow dress that was supposed to be her new school's uniform. It looked more appropriate for a tea party. Still, she would just have to put up with it at least until her guardians decided to transfer her again. Fat chance though. This was supposed to be the best high school in all of Japan. Sighing she got up, grabbed the uniform and went into the small bathroom to change out of her blue pajama's. once she was done dressing and brushing her short ebony hair, she stepped out to look at herself in her full length mirror on her closet door. Well, it wasn't to bad. It was nice looking, but was not very function able. Deciding she better hurry up, she made her bed and left the room to proceed down the stairs to breakfast.

A tall sandy blonde haired woman was sitting at the traditional sized Japanese table, drinking coffee and reading this mornings paper. Upon hearing her adopted daughters footsteps she looked up with a bright smile. "Ohayho Hotaru, you look nice."

"Arigato Haruka-papa. Is Tenshi down yet?" She asked before sitting down across from her. A bowl of miso soup, and rice were already set out for her.

"No, but he should be. . . If He Doesn't Want Me To Get Him!" she yelled, making sure the boy would hear her. Footsteps were soon heard running down the stairs. A boy who looked a lot like Hotaru soon appeared, out of breath. His ebony hair was spiked except for a long strand at the nape of his neck that was kept in a ponytail. He wasn't as pale as his sister, but still seemed like he didn't go out to much.

Laughing nervously he then said, "gomen, I was listening to my stereo." Haruka shook her head as he sat down next to his sister. Quickly they ate the food and took the dishes to the kitchen. Michiru, their second adoptive mother, was already there, pouring herself the last of the coffee. She smiled when the twins walked in and over to the sink.

"You ready for your new school?"

"As ready as I'll ever be." Hotaru replied truthfully as Tenshi just nodded. "Well we better get going. Ja ne Michiru-mama, Haruka-papa."

"Bye, be good! Especially you Tenshi! " Haruka called as the two grabbed their bags.

Tenshi called back, "I'll try!" before putting on his shoes and leaving the house after his sister did.

The school was not to far off. The violet eyed girl was glad she got to walk. The morning coolness had not yet disappeared, and dew drops were still apparent on the lawns and bushes. It wasn't long before she saw other girls wearing the same uniform as hers. There were some boys walking to, who went to Ouran High as well, seeing as they had the same blue uniform as Tenshi wore. Yep, that was their new schools name. Ouran High School, or Ouran Institute. Either way, it was a private school for of course the rich, or the incredibly smart. The two probably could've got in with a scholarship, but Setsuna, their third and last "mother", insisted on paying for it. After all, hardly anyone could get in with just a scholarship, so Setsuna didn't want her "children" to feel "different". Though really, Hotaru couldn't care less. She was horrible at making friends, so it wouldn't have made a difference. Besides she probably had nothing in common with these kids. Tenshi stood a better chance then her. Although, they might not like his airheaded and idiotic ways.

Walking through the gate she found the front to be slightly crowded. Groups of girls stood around giggling and chatting away like birds. The boys conversed to, just not in such large, loud groups. Letting a sigh escape her lips she willed herself to walk past them and into the grand building, Tenshi following behind, mouth agape and wide eyed. It felt and looked like a castle. How could Setsuna really afford to send them here? Sure they were a wealthy family, but it seemed you would have to be millionaires to attend here. The tops of some towers had stained glass for windows and the architecture was very detailed and elegant. Thankfully the classrooms didn't seem like they held more then at least 30 students. Hotaru thought they would be more like college classrooms. After finding their classroom they took some seats in the middle towards the back. Hotaru set her bag down, and took out a book to read until the start of classes. Tenshi rushed over to the windows and stared outside, resembling a small child as he oohed and awed.

"Hikaru, Kaoru stop it." came a firm voice. Violet eyes looked over the top of the book to see three boys walk in. Two, the taller ones, were twins. They had the same color hair as Haruka that was styled like a pop stars. Their eyes were golden and they were grinning at the shorter one between them. Upon closer inspection, Hotaru realized that the smaller was actually a girl. She had boyish cut brown hair, and chocolate brown eyes.

"Sorry Haruhi, we couldn't help it." one laughed.

"Well, save that stuff for after school." the girl said, then spotted Hotaru. Hotaru blushed slightly and went back to reading. "Hello there."

Hotaru looked up again to see the brunette smiling at her. She stood up and bowed politely. "Uh, hello."

"I've never seen you before, you must be new. I'm Fujioka Haruhi." she said walking over.

"Tomoe Hotaru." Hotaru replied.

Instantly the twins had pushed Haruhi behind them and took one of Hotaru's hands into both of theirs. "Hello, we are the Hitachiin Brothers."

"I'm Kauro"

"And I'm Hikaru."

Hotaru blushed as they gave her seductive smiles. It almost seemed the air around them was sparkling and loaded with flowers.

"Knock it off already. I see enough of this at the club." Haruhi yelled, pulling them both away.

"Hello!" the four looked over to see Tenshi bouncing toward them. "I'm Hotaru's twin brother. Tomoe Tenshi!"

The two boys grinned. "Really? Well then, you are the second pair of twins to come here!"they said simultaneously.

"Ooh I feel special!" Tenshi chirped.

Hotaru and Haruhi sweat-dropped. Haruhi was about to add a comment when the second bell rang and students came flooding in. Immediately afterwards the teacher stepped in. Everyone rose and bowed respectably.

"Ohayho class." the teacher said.

"Ohayho sensei." was the response. Hotaru and the others quickly took their seats as the teacher began to call role. "Everyone we have two new students joining us. Will you please introduce yourself's?"

Hotaru nodded and shyly stood up before slightly bowing. "Ohayho, Watashi wa Tomoe Hotaru desu."

"And I'm Tomoe Tenshi!" Tenshi said, standing with a not so shy air around him.

"Please make them feel welcomed here. Alright, now back to yesterdays lesson." Hotaru sat back down as the older woman began to write on the chalkboard as she read from a lesson plan book. She took out her notebook and began copying the notes.

'Oh no, I don't any of this. Looks like I'm behind.' she thought, as she mentally sighed. Why was she always being transferred? There had been no youma or enemies since chaos, which was six years ago. Peace had reigned for some time now, and the others had all moved on to accomplish their dreams. Usagi and Mamoru didn't have to become King and Queen, which they were thankful for. It wasn't to long after Chaos that Chibiusa was born. She was now in first grade and living a normal life. Usagi was a housewife, and Mamoru worked for a major company. Makoto had opened up her own restaurant with a florist shop on the side. It was now one of the nicest places in town to eat. If the wonderful food didn't draw you in, the beautiful fragrance of the flowers did. Minako had become a pop princess like she always dreamed. Her biggest hit was a song called "C'est le vie"1. Every teenaged girl owned at least one of her albums or singles.

Ami had unfortunately gone off to Germany for medical school. However she only had three more years left there and then she would be returning. She, of course, also visited during the holidays and sometimes even Usagi's and Chibiusa's birthday. Rei had become the head priestess at her shrine after her grandfather passed away. She was now famous for her readings, and volunteer work at children's hospitals. Haruka had kept her racing job and sometimes did small openings with Michiru at concerts. Because of her stubbornness, a lot more women got into the racing business. Michiru was now an art teacher at a local studio. She taught all ages, and nearly all kinds of art. Last would be Setsuna, who was relieved of her duties as time keeper until further notice. On the second story of the studio she ran a small designing business. She made all kinds of outfits, and received about 12 requests each week. Thankfully she ha others working with her.

Yep, everybody was happy with their new lives. Except of course for Hotaru and Tenshi. She felt like they were the odd ones out. All the others were out of college and had started their careers. Chibiusa was so young and had made tons of friends at her school. The violet eyed twins was stuck switching between schools, and friendless. Setsuna was paying an arm and leg for them to go here though. Maybe Hotaru could actually live out the rest of the school year in this one. For some reason her guardians always found something wrong with the schools they sent herself and Tenshi to. Too many fights, the teachers slack off, the rules are to lenient, on, and on, and on. She felt like a military kid. Heck, she was surprised they hadn't sent her to one of the military academies yet. They probably didn't sit to well with Michiru though.

Shacking herself of her thoughts she went back to writting before the teacher noticed she was slacking off. If she wanted to stay in this school, she needed to get good grades, and work hard. Making friends might also help to. . . if she was any good at it. Well, friends would just have to be a bonus, everything else had to come first. Quickly catching up with what the teacher was saying she continued to copy notes and soon they began doing class work. Tenshi was by now fast asleep on his desk. Book propped up to hide that little fact.


Spirit- And so ends the first chapter of this tragic, heartbreaking tale.

Tenshi- eh? I thought this was a comedy. . .
