Just as Hanataro had said, he was back in school only a few days after seeing the Host Club at his cross dressing uncle's store. He was much more calm now, his eyes were no longer dark, although when he passed by Mamarou Nanba, the one who had taken the picture in the first place, he glared at him. Otherwise he was completely normal, or as normal as a person who lived in an insane asylum for seven years can get at least.
"Hana-chan, what are you doing this weekend?"
"Ah, well, Jack, and I have to visit someone this weekend, but I'm not doing much otherwise, why do you ask Haruhi?"
"My dad wanted me to see if your mom would like to come over so they could go shopping or something."
"Ah, actually, do you want to come see the person we're visiting?"
"Ne, ne, Jack-chan wants Haha-chan to come see her Baba-chan!"
Jack's random statement about someone by the name of Baba-chan caused her to stare at the small girl strangely.
"Baba-chan is the person we're going to see." Hanataro calmly explained to the confused Haruhi,
"Oh, sure, I'd like to come along."
"Come along on what Haruhi?" two devious voices suddenly interrupted,
"Yaaay, Jack-chan wants Ka-san and Hihi-chan to come too."
"Do you really want the gay posers to come along Jack?" Hanataro said, causing the twins to get a bit irked since he would obviously know that their brotherly love really was just an act.
"Yup yup." Jack answered, nodding her head as well,
"Why don't you just invite everyone then Jack?" then when Hanataro looked at the spot where the small bluenette was, he found it was instead empty, "Looks like she really did decide to invite everyone." then his head hit his desk, "Damn, there'll be a lot of people."
His friends merely stared at him, since it had been about ten minutes and he still hadn't brought his head back up. Haruhi decided to check if he was ever going to raise his head again.
"He's asleep." she told the twins, causing them all to sweat drop a little.
The last few days of the school week passed by in a blur and soon enough the entire Host Club had been fit into a single long limo, Hanataro had told them all to wear white because of the place they had to visit Baba-chan in, although Hanataro seemed to have a habit of calling Baba-chan, old lady, instead for some reason.
"So Hana-chan, why do we have to wear white?" Tamaki asked,
"We're here." he answered instead and climbed out of the limo door and spoke with the driver to tell him he could come pick them up when he called.
The hosts were instead of looking at a house or anything even close were staring the entrance to a local graveyard.
"This is where my mom is." Haruhi said,
"Really, so we've passed by Haha-chan's mama-chan for two years now, can Jack-chan meets her?" Jack asked her friend, smiling as usual; she held a wooden basket in her hands.
"Hai."
"Yay! Now let's go see Baba-chan."
"Hana-chan, if you'd told us we were going to see someone like this, we would've worn black." Kaoru told his friend as soon as Jack had gone a good distance ahead.
"Yeah, but if you remember, Jack's afraid of black, and besides, the old lady would prefer we wear white anyway."
Then he went ahead to catch up with Jack who shocked the other grave visitors with her white sundress, as did Hanataro with his white shirt, jacket, and dark blue pants, which really made his tan skin, red hair, and violet eyes stand out.
The other hosts dressed up in similar clothing, soon caught up to the duo and found that the grave they were visiting had already been cleaned and there was some california rolls set out.
"Looks like Will already came here."
"Yep, Willy-kun's the only other people Jack-chan can think of that knows Baba-chan loves california rolls." then she knelt down in front of the grave and pulled out from her basket a white wool sweater and began to pray. Then Hanataro merely bowed his head in prayer with Jack, and feeling left out, the others did as well, even if they didn't know the person themselves.
"Well, Jack-chan's done, so now I'm gonna put down the food." and so from her basket emerged some platters of sushi, cakes, candies, and other foods, even natto.
"Isn't this disrespectful?" Kyoya questioned,
"We've been doing it for a while now, the attendants see us doing this but never say anything, besides, the old lady would want this."
"Who is this old lady?" Hunny asked.
"Jack, you forgot to pray at the temple for the other people too."
"Oh noes, I did, Jack-chan will be rights back." and she quickly ran off towards the temple to pray for the other people in their graves.
"This is Jack's grandmother, Jack's family doesn't like what the old lady's family does, and they never liked her all that much anyway, so they put her here instead of in a private graveyard or something. This was the last person from Jack's family that freely acknowledged her existence. Today is the tenth anniversary of when I first met the old lady, and in a few more months it will be the second anniversary of her death."
"Why did you tell Jack to go away?" Haruhi asked,
"I'm not sure; I think it's cause I don't want to make her remember the rest of her family by bringing up how this lady was the only one who stayed by Jack's side, even if she forgot who she was."
"Who exactly is Jack's family?"
At this Hanataro rose an eyebrow, "We've been sitting in front of the old lady's name for like forty-five minutes or something and you haven't bothered to look at the name on the grave, that's pretty stupid."
Then Haruhi and the others turned to read the name on the grave,
'Takara Migarashi'
Their eyes turned wide at the last name on the grave,
"Jack is actually a Migarashi?!" they all shouted at him,
"Hai, so what of it?"
"They're only the most powerful and richest family in all of Japan." the twins stated, shock still gripping at them,
"They have a greater fortune than all of ours combined, including yours." Kyoya added, even he was somewhat shocked; he hadn't known Jack was a Migarashi.
"They pretty much own all of Japan." Haruhi said, and she should know, she had to do all the shopping and knew well of their expensive, although very good quality, merchandise.
"And you were almost going to be engaged to Jack's sister." Tamaki added, he almost knew what it would be like to have to be forced to be with someone you barely even knew or liked.
"Yeah, I actually kinda thought Jack's sister was kinda cute at the time I met her." the way Hantaro calmly stated this caused the host members to fall back, "That is until she punched me for staring at her, she had a really painful right hook." this caused the others to fall even more as Hanataro rubbed his jaw where he had probably been punched at that time, "Actually, now that I think about it, it's probably her fault that I'm gay."
"Really?" Haruhi asked,
"Hai, because of her I was scared of girls for about two years." he answered simply,
'But now you dress up as a girl sometimes.' she thought,
"Ne, ne, Jack-chan is back, sorry she took so long, there's lots of peoples here that I had to pray for. Ne, ne, can Haha-chan show me with her mama-chan now?" Jack asked, pulling on the taller girl's arm.
"Ah, hai." and so she and Jack went off to another part of the graveyard to visit her mother.
When the two returned from visiting Haruhi's mother they all sat down and somehow ended up eating and talking together and being joyful, even in this place where many people were normally sad, they were able to be happy, even Hantaro and Jack.
'Well old lady, it looks like Jack has changed a lot from when I first met her, I hope you're happy.'
The group was now leaving the cemetery and Jack had dragged Hunny ahead with her while Mori stayed with the rest of the group since he could still see the pair. Haruhi had started to talk with Hanataro about some cooking techniques he used to make the lunch that they had in front of the grave, when suddenly a
young man came up to Hanataro, he had reddish eyes and long, light purple hair, tied up into a ponytail with a black ribbon, he wore a black trench coat, a black concert t-shirt, and black jeans.
"Hey Hanataro, came to see Takara-san?" the man questioned,
"Yeah, oh, thanks for cleaning the grave for us Will, you here to see her?" Hanataro answered,
"Yeah, I saw Takara-san earlier, so, I'm just visiting, you know." he answered, suddenly seeming a bit sad, and then he changed the topic, "Are these your friends?"
"Ah, hai, this is Haruhi, Kyoya-senpai, Tamaki-senpai, Mori-senpai, Hikaru, Kaoru, and Hunny-senpai is ahead with Jack."
"Ah, it's great to finally meet you all, I am William Yaledem III, I am both Jack, and Hanataro's doctor, friend, older brother figure, whatever you wish to see me as." there was a sudden beeping sound coming from William's waist, he picked up what appeared to be a cell phone and listened to what the person on the other end told him, then he hung up, "Oh, it's just Mr. King going on another dragon hunt and dragging along some other people, nothing to worry about." he answered to the group nonchalantly.
"Do you remember what happened the last time he did that?" Hanataro asked him,
"No, what happened?" he answered, shifting his eyesight to the side.
Hanataro pointed towards a red sports car over where there were more parked cars, "Go and handle the situation, I'll be there later."
"Ahhh, Hana-chan is so mean, making me do my work." William complained as he began to walk over towards the car.
"You don't call me that, now leave." now he was glowering at the older man,
"Fine, no need to look so evil, sheesh." and William ran on over to the car and was soon gone.
"He's your doctor?" Haruhi asked, an eyebrow rose,
"Worse yet, he's been the chairman and president of the institute for the past eleven years." Hanataro answered, pushing his face into his hand and sighing at how many idiotic people he surprisingly knew.
"How old is he?"
"He's twenty-four." Hanataro answered, "So he's been doing his job since he was thirteen."
"Wow."
"Not really, I mean that only happened because his dad died and his mom had been missing since the year before, so there was no one else who could do the job besides him."
"Ah."
"Anyway, let's get going now." and Hanataro walked ahead to the street so he could call the limo driver to pick him and his group up. The group of overly handsome guys and two cute girls made lots of people stare and try to get a close look at what they supposed were models. This made Hanataro almost throw up about twice since some fan girls came and crowded around them, making him feel woozy. Then he rushed into the car after the second fan club group crowded him and they quickly left.
