Chapter 8 – The Devils meet their Angels
"Waaahh! You two are sooo kawaii!" Tamaki squealed, hugging the twin girls who were running out of oxygen.
"Is this normal?" Zurich asked the nearest person to him who happened to be Hunny.
"Hai!" the cute one answered.
"Um.. what's your name?"
"I'm Mitsukuni Haninozuka but everyone calls me Hunny."
Zurich nodded slowly. He observed him for a while then asked, "Are you the blonde's little brother?" He pointed at Tamaki's direction.
"No, he's Tamaki Suou."
He nodded again. "Then, who's little brother are you?"
A laugh was suddenly heard from the corner of the room. "You're talking to the eldest at the host club," the Hitachiin twins explained.
Zurich looked at Hunny, then the twins, then at Hunny, and then he gaped and turned into stone.
The Sugimoto twins finally escaped from Tamaki's deadly hug. They walked over to the stone Zurich and pulled him to the door. They did the same with the other three girls who were chatting with the others. They apologized to Haruhi for not being able to go home with them and said a quick good bye to the hosts.
"Kyouya, do you know who they are?" Tamaki asked.
Kyouya pushed his glasses to the bridge of his nose and smiled slyly. "Just some new students who happened to be acquainted to the Sugimoto twins."
Leaving the huge school, the twins went over to their limo. The four Yankees were following behind them. Though they were really glad to be able to see their friends again, it did not leave them comfortable. Something seemed utterly suspicious. Truth to be told, everything was suspicious. From the very moment they stepped in Ouran Academy, everything went suspicious.
The twins went inside the limo. Their friends did the same. No one talked. The twins had a poker face. This made it hard for the four to know what was going on in their minds.
After a long moment of silence, the twins spoke. "What are you doing here in Japan?" they asked in a cold voice.
Their friends weren't threatened at all. They knew it wasn't a serious one.
"We were just missing you," Jinny said. It was the best she could come up with. The silence that the others were giving away wasn't helping.
The twins laughed. It wasn't happy nor was it cute. It was evil. "And who do you think would believe that lie? Tiffany would never come here just to visit us."
Tiffany didn't respond to it. She was usually the uncaring type of person. She suddenly felt someone elbow her. It was Jinny. Jinny gave her a look that ordered her to say something. Tiffany sighed.
"Do you really think I don't miss you?" she asked, trying to sound cute but failed miserably.
The others face faulted. Tiffany's attempt was an epic fail. However, certain two girls did not care whether it was cute or not.
"Tiffany.." the twins muttered. Before she knew it, the twins were on either side of her hugging her. "We missed you so much!"
Margarette saw the whole scene. Jealousy was written all over her face. "Why does Tiffany get a hug while I don't?" she asked, looking absolutely hurt.
"That's because you were mean to us!" they pouted.
Margarette felt arrows aimed at her from behind. "B-B-But…" Her voice trailed off, seeing how the twins were too busy to listen to her. She just buried her face to her knees, sulking.
Jinny patted her back, tyring her best to cheer up the depressed girl.
Zurich was watching the scene took place with a blank expression. He just didn't care to what was happening. He was just there to look out for his sister, Jinny, anyway. He just didn't see the need of doing this. Jinny was sixteen, not some stuck up kid who couldn't even chew her food.
As soon as he got bored with the girls, he gazed at the road. Japan was definitely different from America and he didn't know when he could get used to it.
The limo stopped in front of a huge and magnificent mansion. The mansion was so elegant that it could've been mistaken for a palace. As expected from the Sugimoto family.
The driver opened the limo door allowing the six teens to step out. They went straight for the door where the maids and butlers welcomed them.
Miyuki and Sayaka continued walking. Maya ran up to them, beaming. The twins didn't look happy at all. She looked over their shoulders and saw the Americans. The twins might have not noticed it, but there was a glint in her eyes.
"So, you're here! I've been waiting for you." She gave the visitors a flashy smile. She was smiling so big it was almost creepy.
"been… waiting?" the twins repeated suspiciously.
Maya stiffened. Did she just let that out? "I…um… T-they contacted me the other night, and asked me if they could stay here."
The twins observed Maya. They weren't convinced at all but agreed with her in the end. They were just too tired to even argue.
Maya led the visitors to the guest rooms.
The twins eyed Maya for the last time. She was unexpectedly too happy. Usually, when Maya's in a good mood like that, it meant trouble for them. They still remembered the last time she was like that.
They were just five. And, Maya introduced them to twin boys. They couldn't remember their names or their faces. Maya asked them to be nice to the boys. Being the obedient daughters they were, they tried their best being angels. When they first met them, they thought those twins were cute. And they had to admit they liked them.
However, the boys did the nastiest thing to them. Behind their backs were frogs they had caught. They weren't really scared of frogs. But, the boys threw them to their faces. From then on, they had thought twin boys were just good-for-nothing pair of idiots.
That could be one of the reasons why they hated the Hitachiin twins. However, there were still plenty of unexplainable reasons for the grudge they held against the said pair of twins.
It had been two days since the arrival of their friends from America. And, it had been a hell since then. Whenever they tried to talk to Tiffany, she would always avoid them. It would either be because she was doing something or the twins were being chased by Margarette. Life with Margarette had been a hell too. Every time she'd see a single mess on them, she would give them a make over. It was like a never ending torture. Zurich had been a problem too. He would always get them to date him 'because he gets bored when he's far from his girls in America. And, Jinny would always be a brat to her brother which only added more disturbances. Sometimes they would just lie on bed and wonder how they had such lunatic friends.
Maya was just adding confusion to them. She had been acting weird since then. She'd always sneak on them sometimes. And she was always at the phone talking to someone. Whenever they asked who it was, she'd always tell them it was just some random person.
However, that day was the weirdest of all. Maya would randomly smile to herself and mumble something. And, she talked to their friends about something privately. It took her almost the whole day to talk. They could tell that they were plotting something they didn't know.
So, that afternoon, the twins decided to talk to them to clear things up. They went to Margarette's room since they always did the 'meeting' there. It took them several minutes before finally deciding on knocking on the door. Since Miyuki was only talented with verbal arguments, Sayaka was the one to do the actions. They knocked on the door. No one answered. In fact, the room was silent. And it was getting suspicious.
After a quick silent conversation, the twins decided on opening the door. They counted on three and opened the door. There, they saw Maya and the others doing… nothing. They just sat there as if they had been waiting for them. Or maybe they had.
Silence filled the room. No one talked or made a move. They just stood there, staring at one another probably waiting for someone to break the tension in the air.
"Um.. I'll leave you," Maya said breaking the silence. "I still have things to do." And with that, she left the room.
Miyuki opened her mouth to say something but closed it immediately when Margarette stood from her seat. She held her hand in the air. She snapped her fingers. The others took it as a go signal.
Tiffany went to the door. She locked it and blocked the way. Jinny held Sayaka while Zurich held Miyuki.
The twins gave them confused looks but the four stayed silent. Zurich and Jinny did what they had done at the host club when they came. Margarette did a make over while Tiffany assisted her.
After the make over, the twins were glaring at them.
"What the hell is this?" they asked menacingly.
Tiffany was the only one unaffected so the others hid behind her. There was suddenly a knock on the door. Tiffany opened the door and found Maya.
She looked at the twins with a big grin on her face. "You two are perfect!" she squealed. She dragged them downstairs, totally ignoring the confused looks on her twins.
The twins were trying to figure out what was happening when they saw the most unexpected people. Before the visitors could even see them, they pulled Maya backwards.
"What are you doing?" Maya asked.
"What is happening here?"
"What do you mean?"
"What are the Hitachiins doing here?"
"Well, I-"
"The truth, mom," the twins said firmly.
Maya sighed. "You'll know later. But can you promise me that you'll behave?"
"We're not promising~" the twins sang.
"Pleeaase?" Maya put up her best puppy dog eyes.
"Not working~"
"Fine," Maya said, giving up, "What do you want?"
"If you promise to bring our pets here, then we promise to behave."
"But, your pets are-"
"Do you promise or not?"
It took Maya a moment or two before she made up her mind. She took one last glance at their visitors before answering, "Fine, I promise."
The twins pulled out a piece of paper out of nowhere and held it in front of her. "You have to sign the contract first."
"Where did you get that?" Maya asked, confused.
"No questions, just sign!" the twins demanded.
Maya cussed silently under her breath. She took out a pen out of nowhere (A/N: and she wonders how the twins did that..tsk,tsk,tsk) and signed the contract.
The twins smirked.
"Don't worry," they said in their sweetest voice. "We'd be in our best behavior."
Zurich lay on his bed. His hands were behind his head. He looked up to the ceiling, thinking deeply. He sighed as he remembered when his parents appointed him of baby-sitting his sixteen-year-old sister … again. Just then, he felt someone sat beside him.
"What do you want?" He asked. His voice was bitter.
"I'm sorry," Jinny muttered.
Zurich chuckled darkly. "Don't 'I'm sorry' me," he said. "I've seen this coming. Now, would you leave me alone?"
Jinny looked at him sadly. She slowly got up and walked away. She gave her brother trouble again. So, she must make his stay in Japan the happiest he'd ever been.
A smile formed across her face. She slammed the door shut and ran to her room. She would make Zurich's stay in Japan the happiest he'd ever been.
Inside another room, Margarette was doing something else. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in," she said without lifting her gaze from the laptop.
Tiffany opened the door and came over to her. "I'm gonna get my-," she suddenly stopped as curiosity got her. She peeked at what Margarette was doing.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"Researching about the host club," Margarette answered seriously. She was always like this when she's researching about others.
Tiffany raised an eyebrow. "Found anything interesting?"
Margarette faced her, smirking. "Yes. It's about the host club's natural type. Haruhi Fujioka."
The twins found themselves facing Hikaru and Kaoru. Being in their best behavior wasn't easy, especially, when they're facing their mortal enemies. On the other hand, if they accomplished this, a reward was waiting for them.
They were in desperate need of help. People always found them well-behaved when they're quiet. So, the only choice they got was smiling and NOT commenting. If they tried to comment, Miyuki might not fight back the urge of insulting the twins. And as for Sayaka, if something went wrong, she might not be able to stop herself from doing something unpleasant.
The twins just watched as their mother chatted happily with Yuzuha. It really puzzled them how they were important to this meeting, seeing that only Yuzuha and Maya were enjoying themselves. The Hitachiin twins hadn't talked either since their arrival. They were just watching the two women with boredom.
Miyuki and Sayaka sighed. If it continued being like this, they might get tired and bored that they might not control their actions anymore. But, something in the conversation caught their attention. Maya said something about telling them the truth.
The two pair of twins waited patiently for Maya's special announcement. Their eyes widened as the news entered their ears.
"ENGAGED?"
