I pulled my motorcycle up to the curb in Ouran Academy's parking lot. Yet again there are no cars here… I could probably park my bike in any spot and no one would care since all the silly rich children are driven to school.I was drawn out of my thoughts as I spotted Katherine sitting on the sidewalk. I hopped off my motorcycle and removing my helmet, shook out my long brown hair which fell down to rest on my shoulders. Katherine rose and exclaimed,
"Hi Kin! So for some reason the Host Club is closed today…they wouldn't tell me why though….so would you like to come back to my house? Haruhi decided to study for a little before going home." I watched as Katherine's face changed from confusion and annoyance as she remarked on the Host Club being closed to hopeful anticipation at the thought of us hanging out at her house. I frowned, my mind working quickly. It wasn't like Kyoya to close the club and ruin profits for an afternoon, unless there was an alternative event that he either endorsed or could not prevent. And that meant one of Tamaki's ridiculous plans. I had quite enough of his antics to want to be sucked into them again. I replied,
"Sure Ellie, though I know they closed for a reason. And we need to get out of here before we find out that reason. Actually we can go to my house; I have a new motorcycle to work on." Katherine looked slightly perplexed by my odd statement, but she quickly recovered and said,
"Yeah that's fine Kin, let's go!" I held out a helmet for Katherine when suddenly my nightmare materialized in human form. Or human forms. The twins seemingly appeared from nowhere and each one clapped their hands on my arms, standing behind me and pining my hands behind my back. Mitsukuni and Takashi also appeared and Mitsukuni grabbed Katherine, I couldn't help being momentarily amused as she blushed when Mitsukuni held her arm.
"Targets," said one of the twins, the other finished the sentence, "captured." I stared at them vacantly, wavering between fury that they were holding my arms back and wonderment at why in the hell they had grabbed me. A black limo pulled up the in the student parking lot, the window opened and Tamaki appeared, a pair of sunglasses concealing his eyes. A growl rose in my throat, of course that was who was behind these latest shenanigans. Tamaki said approvingly,
"Good, take them with you." The limo sped away out of the student parking lot. Now that it had been partially revealed to me what was going on, it was really time to teach these twins that I don't like been grabbed and held forcibly. Also, that Katherine and I have no intention of being kidnapped on the idiot Tamaki's orders. I spat out a warning at them,
"Listen here you stupid twins, we aren't going to go anywhere with you." The twins grinned inanely at my threat and replied,
"Yes you are coming with us." I felt my eye twitch slightly, and anger gained control of my body. I had warned them, but they had tested my limit too far. Leaning back on their arms I flipped backwards, spinning out of their grasp, my momentum yanking my arms out of their grip. Landing, I knocked each twin over the head with my fists; they sank to the ground, sitting confusedly. They weren't bleeding however and I knew that they would be fine in a moment. I didn't want to hurt them too badly as their rabid fan girls would probably attempt to murder me and I don't really like seeing blood. I took advantage of their moment of dazed confusion to say rapidly,
"Never, NEVER grab me again, I don't like being touched, and especially not by a pair of twin fools. And don't ever think that you can just make Ellie or I bow to your will, you have absolutely no control or power over either of us and we make our own choices. If you have some reason why we should go with you tell me, but don't you dare try and kidnap us again." The twins flinched briefly and then one of them answered me,
"Don't get all worked up, we were only kidnapping you to bring you and Kitty on a surprise host club trip with us. Tamaki thought it would be more fun this way, but he obviously didn't realize that some girls don't like being grabbed and kidnapped." I bit down another tirade on the fact that I didn't know ANY girls that would ever have 'fun' being kidnapped, and only someone completely arrogant and delusional would actually think a girl would have fun having some boy grab her and take her away. Instead I replied,
"Tamaki. Is. An. Idiot." The twins shrugged and answered in unison,
"We know."
"And where exactly are we going?"
"To a tropical resort and spa owned by Kyoya's family."
Turning away from the twins I saw that Mitsukuni had let go of Katherine. I figured that it would probably be best to not make another scene and go on the trip with them. Besides, Katherine might have fun and I might even have fun as well, so I told her,
"Come on Ellie. We're going to wait by their limo." Katherine looked at me in shock. Standing by the twins' limo, the twins left and in 15 minutes returned, dragging Haurhi with them. While we waited I told Katherine about the 'surprise trip,' not mentioning where we were going. I wanted it to be something of a surprise for Katherine. Seeing us, Haruhi looked exceedingly befuddled.
"It's a trip," Katherine told Haruhi, smiling happily. The twins and she entered the limo and Katherine put on the helmet I had given her and climbed on the bike behind me, holding me tightly so she wouldn't fall. Revving the engine, Katherine and I rode off; I followed the twins' limo to the spa, uncertain of what to expect when we arrived there.
LATER ON
Katherine and I followed the twins, who were eagerly dragging Haruhi to a women's changing room. When they arrived they pushed forward Haruhi and Katherine, ordered a pair of twin maids,
"Okay, take care of them." I assumed they wanted the maids to do something to me as well, however I suspected they were afraid of grabbing me again. I glared at the twins, and was then distracted as the maids replied,
"Very well." Oh god, the twins have maids that are also twins and that also speak in unison? Creepy rich people….
"Miss Fujioka, Miss Kodomojimita, Miss Takara. Right this way." Despite their completely freaky manner of speaking, like they were about to hit Kitty, Haruhi, and I over the head with a tiki statue and drag us off into the jungle to be killed by ax murderers, I was pretty sure I knew why we were here. This was a changing room, and the maids were here to help us change into something. And given that we were at an obscenely large water park and the twins would kill to see any portion of Haruhi's skin, I would guess that they would be helping us change into bathing suits. Damn twins. Apparently Haruhi had not reached the same conclusion I had since she shouted,
"W-wait! Why?!" The twins latched their hands onto Haruhi and Katherine and pulled them into the changing room. I shot a last withering glare at the twins and then followed them in. I had no intention of putting on a bathing suit but I also didn't want Haruhi and Katherine to end up in there alone with the creepy twin maids. In the changing room the maids undressed Haruhi, but didn't do so to Katherine and I as we were both giving them looks that clearly said: Try and undress us and something very, very bad will happen. Haruhi was shrieking,
"Just a minute, just a minute!"
"We have been asked to help you three choose a swimsuit." My glare darkened, I did not want to put a swimsuit on.I don't want to swim here; I only like to swim in the ocean. Besides if I put some frilly swimsuit on my ability to intimidate the twins and frighten Tamaki will be ruined.
"We brought all of this year's latest that our mom designed. You can choose whichever one you want." Kaoru told us through the door. I watched as Katherine looked through the racks of swimsuits and realized that there was only one that could fit her, a fairly cute white bikini. Katherine left to change and the maids said,
"Okay Miss Fujioka and Miss Takara, please select one."
"Thanks but I don't need a swimsuit." Haruhi said politely. I settled for glared at them while growling,
"I'm not wearing any of these." In response the maids handed me a dark blue tank top and some jean shorts. I guess they figured it would be useless reasoning with me. Happy to wear what they gave me I stepped into the dressing room and changed out of my white skirt, black jacket, black skirt and gray leggings, which I was glad to get rid of as it wasn't really a resort outfit anyways. I half-listened as the maids offered Haruhi different swimsuits and she basically descended into complete panic. When I left the dressing room Haruhi walked in. She ended up wearing a strange dress-like swimsuit with a swim cap. Haruhi walked out of the changing room to be confronted by Tamaki, whose entire face was flushed deep red. He handed her a yellow parka and after Haruhi questioned him said,
"Girls should only show off that much skin after they get married." I rolled my eyes, did he not realize that Katherine and I were standing right there, displaying plenty of skin? It was obvious he didn't truly believe that, and was only attempting to prevent Haruhi from displaying her body to the other boys. Haruhi put the parka on however, so I decided not to start yelling at Tamaki for being sexist. Haruhi, Katherine and I walked to the pool where we were soon joined by the boys. It was a strange little group, all sitting there beside the pool in the sunshine.
