So somebody told me that this sounds like Mission Impossible. I've never actually seen Mission Impossible, so I can't say anything back about it. I'm glad you guys read this, and another looooong chapter for you!

I wake up to see Theo staring at me.
"Geneva! You were being strangled, then Mori-senpi came and got the guy off of you!" I look around to see I am in the Nurses office, and the time is 2 o'clock. There is still an hour of school.
"Where are Olivia and Lily?" I sit up, and actually feel fine, so I throw my legs over the side of the bed.
"Toxi and Axel took them to get ice cream, they were freaked out. You sure you can stand?"
"Positive." I stand up, only a little bit dizzy. As I turn towards the door, Axel and Toxi come in, leading the two girls. They are licking icecream cones, with lots of ice cream. I would have gotten mad over the fact that they were going to get sick with so much ice cream, but the fact that they were almost kidnapped is reason enough for them to deserve a treat.
"Sissy! They said that you feel asleep, and then took us to get ice cream! Olivia got strawberry, while I got cotton candy!" Lily runs towards me, and gives me a hug, carefully not messing up her ice cream. I smile and giggle, and get down to eye level with her and Olivia.
"Do you guys happen to know who those people were?"
"Nope! Theo was awesome! He came and the girl was trying to get us into a van, and he hit her in the back of the head! Then he slamed her into the van, and yelled run in german, and we ran towards a building where we saw Anna and Art. They then took us to Toxi and Axel, where they got us ice cream!" Olivia seems to have learned our family members names, which is good. I give her a hug, and then stand up. Dusting off my dress, I see the host club standing outside of the nurses office, want ing to see me.
"I'm sorry, but since you are not family, we don't want to wake her up. Besides, with all of her siblings in there it is too crowded-"
"Hi guys. Thanks Mori, for getting that idiot off of me." I turn to Mori and thank him, and he just nods. I walk out, and the nurse tries to stop me.
"You shouldn't be up. You were almost-"
"I believe I am fine. Besides, I believe I have some questions for my parents, so I shall be headed hom now." I take Olivia and Lily's hands and walk down the hallway, towards the front doors. I hear footsteps behind me, and I turn around to see Theo following me.
"You forgot your bag. Should I come with you?" He hands me my bag, and I smile.
"Nah, I need to get these two home and one of us has to be in class. I'll see you later." I leave, pulling my cellphone out of my bag and calling the driver. As soon as I get to the gate, he is there, that is how good our drivers are.
"Thanks. Take us home, okay?"
"Yes Miss Geneva." He starts driving, and I sit there calmly with the girls. When we get home, I walk inside to mom and dad talking rapidly.
"Mom, Dad, explain to me why some unknown person wants Olivia and Lily." They turn towards me, and Mom is kinda jittery. Her long blue hair is pinned up in a messy bun, like always, and Dad isn't busy on the phone. Mom smiles, and I glare lightly.
"Okay, well... Olivia and Lily aren't orphan's."
"That much I figured out." I say this even though I didn't figure it out, but I don't care.
"Their parents are rich... and the two of them are actually fraternal twins." I raise my eye brows slightly, but don't say anything.
"And their parents were forced to give the two of them up due to child abuse, but they want their children back. We took the two of them in since we knew we could protect them... Like you did today. Please, forgive us for not telling you." She makes a pouty face, and I roll my eyes. Mom can be childish sometimes.
"Okay, I forgive you. You take Lily and Olivia, they know french like our family, and you take them to their appointment. I'm going to go work on the halloween costumes." I hand off the twins, and walk up to my room. As soon as I shut the door, I plop down at my sewing machine and get to work.
By the time I am finished with everyone's outfits except for mine, it is 7 o'clock. Dinner is starting, but I don't feel like going and I need to get on with creating my costume. I go over to my fabric supply and pull out a bolt of black silk, ready to creat the idea that has been blooming ever since this morning.
A week later, I am finally finished, and it is halloween. Our family had gone out to a wig store a few days ago and gotten wigs, so we are all ready, since makeup is easy to come by with so many females. I sit in my room, dressing the twins in their cute costumes.
"You two are going to be so pretty. Now, don't forget that Mom and Dad will be with you, and if you need to find them if you get lost, then you just need to look for sparkly gold dancers. Dad looks like a Elvis reincarnation, and mom has on a flapper dress with a blonde wig."
"What's a flapper dress?"
"It's a dress with bunch of gold fringe, like an indian, and hers is gold. It goes swish when she moves."
"Oh." Lily is dressed in a traditional pink tutu, with green fake ballet slippers and green ribbons wrapped around her arms. Since her hair is too short to put in a bun, I made a flower head band that she is wearing. Her trick or treat bag is a basket, with fake flowers around the rim.
Olivia is dressed in a purple ballerina leotard, with a purple and gold toule skirt. On her head is a pair of purple cat ears, and she has a purple tail with a gold bow on it. Her hair is braided in two braids, and sprayed with purple hair spray. Her bag is a bowl that is decorated like a ball of purple yarn, and I painted whiskers and I nose on her.
I take them downstairs to where Mom and Dad are waiting, already in their dancing clothes. Dad has on a black wig while mom has on her blonde one, and they both have on eyebrow make up to make their eyebrows the right color. If you didn't know better, you would've thought that was their normal hair.
"here they are! The little twins. And, they are ready for trick or treat." I hand the twins to them, and they smile at the little girls.
"Thanks Geneva. You have a good time at the ball tonight, and make sure you all are back by 1 a.m... Wait, are you going in that?' I look at my leggings and huge t-shirt, and smile.
"Nah, I just ahven't gotten into costume. Well, I better get ready!" I turn around and head back to my room, ready to get into costume.
PoV Anna
"Art, what are you again?" I look at the assymetrical costume, which is her dressed in light blue, with a golden wand and white lace-up boots. She has a gold and blue mask.
"I'm a light goddess. Geneva came up with the idea. This wig is itchy though..." She puts her hand underneath her wig and scratches, managing not to mess up the wig. She has on a whiteish blue wig, which is a lot longer and curlier than her hair, not to mention the blue tint. She smiles at my costume, which is symmetrical.
It is this black mini dress, where the skirt poofs out, and has a purple ribbon belt that ties in the back in a huge bow. I have on black thigh high boots, that are high-heeled. On my head is a black witch hat, with purple ribbons surrounding it. The only thing not symmetrical is the broom, which I can only hold in one hand. Other than that, it is perfect. I also wear a wig, but mine is light purple. It's a bob cut, with perfectly blunt bangs, so no unperfection there. I have a purple and black mask, that is perfect.
"Come on, lets go downstairs to the others."
PoV Toxi
I look at my black kimono like dress, with the blood red sash. I have on black butterfly like wings, and a light brown wig that is straight a long, with two pieces on the side pulled back and clipped with a red rose. I have on black strappy heels, and my skin is powdered to look lighter. My mask is black and red, so I look perfectly devilish.
I look at Axel, who is wearing a straight light blue wig, styled like mine, but a little shorter. She has on black angel wings, a black and white dress with a long droopy sleeves white dress underneath that is slightly longer than the black dress. Her gold earings in her ears have been replaced with silver ones, and she has a fake lip ring in. Her mask is just a lcey black one, with bat patterns on it.
"Well, I guess we are ready..."
"Yeah, lets head downstairs."
PoV Vecci
"Sachii, you look so stereotypical!"
"Says the vampire with bat wings!"
Sachii has on a horribly pink dress with rose petals strewn about, and it is just long and poofy. She has on a gold tiara, and her feet are wearing golden slippers. She also has on a wig, which is straight and pink. A single braid goes down one side of her face. Her mask is this pink and gold, with pink flowers and feathers on one side.
I, on the other hand, have on a black and blue corset, with a gray dress underneath. I have on maids stockings, and mary janes. My wig is straight and black, and I have in fake fangs. On my back are a pair of small black bat wings. My mask is black and blue, with blue and black feathers. I am a perfect little vampire.
"Well, lets at least get downstairs. I can't wait to see Geneva's costume!"
"That, is something I want to see." Sachii says this, but I don't pay attention as I run down the stairs.
I get there, and everyone is there except for Geneva. Theo has on a red a black cape, with a black tuxedo. He has on a black wig, with one side longer than the other, and he managed to get red contacts from Geneva. She doesn't like others using her contacts, but he must have bribed her. His mask is plain black super hero mask, which actually looks good.
"Hey, where is Geneva?" I look around, and everyone shrug.
PoV Geneva
I slip on my costume, then put in my contacts. I put on my wig, and the make up. Finally, I grab the black cloak I quickly made, and slip it on, covering the entire costume and pulling up the hood so no one can see my face. I slowly walk down the stairs and meet up with the rest.
"Why are you wearing a cloak?" I look at Anna, and smile slightly, though she can't see.
"Because my costume is a surprise, and no one else should see it." I walk outside, to where there are three limo's.I get into the last one, while the others pile into the other two, at my request. As soon as we are driving, I take off the cloak and adjust my wig, making sure it is centered.
"Driver, take a longer route. I want to be there after them."
"Yes, Miss Geneva."I smile, and apply the last makeup I need. I finish with the fangs, and sit back to wait.
When I get to the party, moat are already there. I get out of the limo, knowing that everyone of my family have gotten in already. I slip my money and make up bag into my hidden dress pocket, and slowly walk up, taking small steps to make it seem like I float. I get up to the doors just before they are closed, and they let me in, before shutting the doors behind me.
"Now that everyone is here, let us begin the ball! Find your partner, and remember, everyone have their masks, so you can't tell who is who!" The voice is from the ceiling, and sounds recorded, meaning I can't tell who is the host club by who is talking. I feel someone poke my shoulder, and I turn around to a man dressed in a black tuxedo, and black... everything. He has black hair, and his mask is black too, but with silver swirls.
"May I have this dance?" I instantly recognize the voice as Kyoya, he must have put in contacts so that he could see without his glasses. I smile, and put on a creepy voice, smiling slightly so that my fangs are visible.
"Of course you may." I take his hand, and we start to dance, turning in circles. He looks at my costume, I can tell he likes it.
"That costume is very beautiful. It must have taken your seamstress weeks to create." I smile, and he spins me. The costume I am wearing is really pretty. It is a completely gray dress, with a hoop skirt to make it look full. The only color is the ends of the droopy sleeves, which have frills on it that are blood red. The dress has black spiders embroidered on the bottom. I have on a light brown pigtail wig, and a red crown. My mask is a red mask, with a lacy black metal one on top with black spider webs and spiders. On my head is another blood red crown, and I have in red contacts. Though you can't see them, I have on black dance shoes, but the dress covers them.
"Thank you, but I make my own costumes. If I had my seamstress make it, she would mess it up!" I giggle lightly, still using my creepy voice. If you haven't figured it out already, then you might as well know, my costume is a spider queen.
The dance ends, and I curtsy to Kyoya. I am suddenly pulled into another dance by another boy, and by half an hour before midnight, I have danced with every host, including my brother who didn't recognize me, and I didn't bother to tell him. At midnight, The hosts all go to the stairs of the ballroom.
"We have had a beautiful night! Now, we would like to invite anyone who wants too, to come and enter their costumes in the costume contest!" Tamaki says this, and girls rush to the front, entering their costume. I walk on up, not rushing, and also enter, writing down the costume name and description. It doesn't ask for a my name, so I don't put it, thankfully.
"Now, those who entered, please come and stand on the steps here! We, the host club, will judge and choose the best costumes! Third place gets to dance with their favorite host the last dance, second place gets a kiss from me, the king, and first place gets to spend a day with their favorite host, doing whatever they want, within reason of course." Tamaki then puts down the mic and the hosts walk up and down our line. I take out a small glass orb that was hidden in my pocket, which contains a realistic looking spider inside. I notice that my siblings entered except for Art and Anna, since they are in middle school. I am actually standing beside Sachii, but she doesn't recognize me. The club finally gets to me, and they examine the costume.
"Beautiful workmanship. Tell me, who is your seamstress?" Tamaki examines the costume, and I smile. I keep my creepy voice, and reply.
"I creaate my own costumes. I do not take credit for something others do." It is whispered though, so my siblings don't hear. I want to wait until the last moment to tell them it is me. Tamaki nods, and they continue on to Sachii, and when they ask the same question, she avoids the question.
"If I name her, then she shall be stolen away, and I would rather keep her." I smile slightly, and watch as they continue. When they are finished they all go to collaborate, and Theo is smiling as he walks away. They enter a small room, and we all start talking among ourselves.
PoV no one
The host club stands around a table, with their papers down on the table.
"Did you see that girl in pink? Her costume was beautiful!"
"She called herself... lets see... the rose princess." Kyoya examines his papers, and he tries to figure out who is in which costume.
"I liked the girl in gray and red. What was she calling herself?" Theo looks through his papers, and already knows that girl is his sister, just by how she said she made the costume herself.
"She called herself the Spider Queen. She said she made her own costume."
"I liked the girl in red and black, the one who called herself the dark fairy!"
"Well, let us continue guys..."
PoV Geneva
They come out 5 minutes before midnight, and Tamaki takes the mic. He smiles, and we all quiet down. Well, except for me, since I wasn't talking in the first place.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I have the winners in my hand. Third place is... number 24, Dancing Queen!" I girl comes down the stairs, dressed in a flapper dress that is sparkly blue. She has perfect brown ringlets, and her mask is sparkly blue, and she has features that look painted on. She stands on the third place platform, and smiles.
"Second place goes to... number 12, ballerina in blue!" and a girl who has to be a first year comes running down the steps, doing a little spin, then standing on a second place platform. She has a blue ballerina tutu, and her blonde hair is in a high bun. She wears real pointe shoes, and she must be a real dancer to be able to walk in them.
"And finally, first place... goes to... Number 33, the Spider Queen!" There is cheering as I slowly walk down the steps, and stand on the first place platform. Everyone claps, and I look to see the clock says 1 minute to midnight.
"Everyone, the last part of our ball tonight is the unveiling of the masks, then the last dance. But first," taaki then kisses the second place winner, and she blushes. "And, our third place winner must choose their host for the last dance!" He hands the mic to the girl, and she smiles.
"I choose Kyoya Ootori." She hands the mic to Tamaki, who then hands it to me, so I can announce who I shall spend the ay with on Saturday.
"I do not want to spend a day with a host. Instead, I will let them have their day off." I smile, as Tamai takes the mic, eyes wide. We all look at the clock, and Tamaki starts the count down.
"10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1!" We all remove our masks, and as my ribbons come undone, I hear some gasps from my siblings.
"Geneva? You made the Spider queen?" I look down at Toxi, and smile.
"Yup. I think Theo was the only to figure it out, and he only did when he heard me say I created my costume." I get off of the stand as everyone starts to dance, and I am left by myself. I didn't want the prize, and the fact that I fooled my siblings is prize enough. Besides, I knew Kyoya didn't figure it out, and that is a even better prize.
She sells sea shells down by the sea shore. She sells sea shells down by the sea shore.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter! This story will skip around a lot, since I don't want to spend a bunch of time on it. Thanks!
