A/N: I intend to do a chapter a day here, because Ouran is typically easy for me, but I don't have a clue if that will work out. Also, a shout out to rnn21 (yes again!) for following all my OC stories! Thank you!

Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran High School Host Club. I make absolutely no profit from this. I do own Nara and Niyah, so please ask to use them, ok?

While Kaoru kept an eye on Niyah inside the school, Hikaru crept up to Nara as she snuck a cigarette around the back of the school. "Those things are hazardous to your health, you know." Hikaru took the cigarette away and crushed it under his shoe. "Like siblings, aren't they hazardous to your health?" He grinned at her, folding his arms behind his head. "I mean, I love my brother, but he bothers me sometimes. I'm sure you know what I mean."

Nara looked at him. She was waiting, if not completely hooked. Her blue eyes were cold against the set of her warm brown hair, and she looked at him, silent and waiting.

"I love Kaoru to death. But every once in a while he does something that makes me so mad..." Hikaru shook his head, mentally priding himself on his acting. "I can barely take it. But it all wears off with time, and you realize that's your twin. You didn't kill each other before you were born, so why should you hate each other now?"

"I hate my sister." Nara started to tap a cigarette out of the pack, but Hikaru grabbed her hand. "She took the only man I've ever truly loved from me and wrapped him around her twisted little plot. I hate her. I wish I had killed her in the womb. If she had died I'd still be in love." She pushed Hikaru away.

"Did you ever think that maybe it was your boyfriend's fault?" Hikaru snapped. Hatred bloomed in his heart, specifically for this girl. "Instead of blaming your sister, why don't you blame the real culprit?"

Nara darted away, and Hikaru didn't follow... not at first anyway.

"What really happened?" Kaoru asked softly, sitting in the empty classroom with Niyah. "You seem really upset about your sister's boyfriend coming onto you. Was it worse than you made it sound?"

"I don't want to talk about this..." Niyah whispered. "I told him no... And he didn't stop... I told him no and the only reason he stopped is because Nara saw him..." Niyah shuddered and appeared to fold in on herself, her breathing quickening.

Oh. Oh God. Kaoru was sure if he ever met this guy, he was going to have to kill him. Sure, he and Hikaru had been jerks to girls before, but that was always just verbal. They would never try to hurt a girl like that. "Hey, calm down. You don't have to worry about that asshole anymore." Kaoru touched Niyah's shoulder gently. "Niyah, look at me. Hikaru and I will protect you, ok?" Kaoru tried to flash a grin at her, but anger made it look fake. "Don't worry."

"A-alright." Niyah nodded, but she didn't look very reassured. "Thank you..." She sat up a little straighter. "Is Hikaru going to be alright with her...? He's been gone a long time..."

"He'll be fine." Kaoru smiled. "Have some faith in him. I do."

Down a few floors, on the ground, Hikaru peeked around the corner at Nara, and saw something that he wouldn't have believed.

A/N: Cliffhanger! (Ducks flying tomatoes) I'll try to update tomorrow, but I think we have to shop at some point, so we'll see. In the meantime, what did you think?
