Chapter Eight

Everyone was split into teams of two and went to look for Haruhi and Tamaki. The teams were Kaoru and Hikari, Hikaru and Kaori, Kyoya and Tamiki then Mori and Kyoko. Which left Moriko, Hani and Maple together.

They searched for them all day until the sun was set and it was pitch black outside. Since it was getting so late everyone returned to the house and dressed out into their home clothes. Once they were dressed out they all gathered into the huge living room.

"What are we going to do now?" Moriko worriedly said

Everyone shrugged

"I guess we'll have to look for them tomorrow" Kyoya said

"But what if they're outside?" Tamaki yelled "We can't just leave them out there!"

Hikari nodded "True, we can't leave them out there"

"But if we go search for them now there's a possiblity of us getting lost as well" Kaori informed

"How about we call them?" Maple suggested

Kyoko shook her head "Can't. There's no signal"

"That's strange" Maple said

"What is?" Hani questioned

"We always have signal out here, no matter what" Maple answered

As all of them sat there wondering what's going on everyone's phone recived a text message. Everyone was shocked but they took a look at it anyways.

"Hello people. Your friends are fine as long as you follow whatever I say. If you're wondering who I am there's no need to wonder anymore. I'll tell you who I am. I'm your worst nightmare" the text stated

Everyone continued to read the message. It told them to break into their groups again and get into seperate rooms. Once everyone was in different rooms all of the doors locked except for the room with Maple, Hani and Moriko in it. Soon another message was sent to Maple.

"Please remove yourself from the room and come to the dining room without anyone following you. If you don't do it them you'll never see your friends again" the message informed

Maple sighed and did as told. When she was out of the room the door locked. She was about to turn back to open the door but she remember what the text had said and continued to walk to the dining room. Once she reached the dinning room she was surprised to see a dinner set up with candles and roses everywhere.

"What in the world is going on?" Maple looked around the room

"Everything is for you my dear" a guy walked out of the shadows

He had nice short brown hair and a tux on with dress shoes. When Maple saw him she turned a little bitter.

Maple turned away from him "What are you doing here?"

He smirked "Don't be that way. I went through all of this trouble to eat dinner with you"

"I don't want to eat with you" Maple glared at him

He fell bad into the emo corner and began to cry. Maple was shocked by his action but she couldn't careless. She began to walk out of the room but then was stopped when someone called her phone.

"I thought there wasn't signal" Maple mumbled but answered the phone "Hello?"

"Maple-chan! Don't turn him down so hard! Eat dinner with him!" a voice yelled into the phone

Maple looked at the phone and placed it on her ear again "Tamaki-sempai? I thought that you're missing with Haruhi"

"No! It was just a part of Shingo's plan to eat with you!" Tamaki explained "Come on! Just eat with him"

"But I don't wanna" Maple whinned

"Well I guess everyone will be locked in those rooms forever" Tamaki sighed

"What? Why won't you just let them go?" Maple asked

Suddenly Maple heard crashing and throwing from the other line of the phone. Someone else now has the phone but Maple didn't know who.

"Cause I want them to hook up too!" the voice yelled

"Renge? What are you doing here?" Maple questioned

"I'm waiting for the one day that the Host and Hostess Club will date! And today will be that day!" Renge yelled then hung up the phone

Maple realized that Renge had ended the call and sighed. She turned over to Shingo and tapped his shoulder. When he looked up at her she held out her hand.

"Get up. I'll eat with you" Maple said with a stubborn voice

"Yes!" Shingo cheered "You won't regret this!"

*Too late* Maple thought

While the two were eating everyone else was freaking out in the rooms they were locked in, mainly Kaoru. Hikari tried to keep them calm but it didn't seem to work.

"I'm sure that Hikaru is fine! He's older then you! He can take care of himself!" Hikari yelled

Kaoru continued to panic

She grabbed into his arm "Get a hold of yourself! He'll be just fine!"

"How would you know? We're not with him!" Kaoru yelled

"I know because Kaori is with him" Hikari calmly said

Kaoru calmed down a little "I guess he'll be fine with her"

*I know that he'll be fine... but I wonder if she'll be fine*

Meanwhile Kaori was freaking while Hikaru was trying to calm her down. She was screaming and kicking on the door and Hikaru wasn't able to stop her. He then grabbed her and sat her down into a chair. He looked at her in the eyes.

"Calm down" Hikaru demanded

"How can I calm down when I have no idea what's going?" Kaori asked

"Nothing big is going on! Just remain calm and I'm try to get us out of this room" Hikaru said

"Nothing's going on? You don't know that! Someone can be setting the house on fire as we're speaking right now!" Kaori suggested

Hikaru galped "L-Let's not start thinking of crazy ideas"

Kaori glared at him "Don't get me started on crazy ideas"

Hikaru started to become scared but tired to act brave in front of Kaori. He stood strong and stared at her in the eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll get us out of here" Hikaru asured

Kaori thought about it "...How? We're on the third floor... We can break down the door or go out of the window. What else can we do?"

Hikaru was about to speak but became depressed "I'm not sure"

Kaori released a big sigh. Meanwhile Kyoya and Tamiki were sitting completely quiet in the room they're stuck in. Neither one of the would even look at each other. No one said a thing until Tamiki turned to Kyoya and finally broke the silence.

"What do you think is going on here?" Tamiki questioned

"I have no idea" Kyoya pushed up his glasses "But I'm sure that Tamaki is planning something"

Tamiki gave him a confused look "What makes you say that?"

"Let's face it. No matter where in the world he is he'll always be near his 'daughters' so he would never be away from home for a long time" Kyoya explained

"But what if he's lost and had no idea where he was?" Tamiki tilted her head

Kyoya smirked "He would be so loud from screaming in fear that anyone can find him"

"Oh I see. At least we know he's safe then" Tamiki smiled

As they were talking Kyoko and Mori were in their room thinking of a plan to escape from the room. Kyoko looked outside of the window to see how high up they were while Mori felt the door to see how hard it was. They were pretty high up and the door was going to be hard to break down. Kyoko then had an idea. She looked around the room and saw an air vent.

"I found a way out of here" Kyoko smirked

She walked over to it and noticed the size was big enough to fit her. Kyoko tried to pull the vent open but it didn't work so Mori decided to walk over and tore it off. She smiled a 'thank you' to him and began to calm out. Mori calmly wait for something to happen. A few minuted later the door was opened by Kyoko with a key in her hand.

"I don't know about you but I want to sleep. I think that the others can find their own way out" Kyoko smirked

Mori nodded and walked out of the room

Kyoko and Mori walked into their rooms and got ready for bed while the others were still in the rooms they were stuck in. Meanwhile Maple was in the dinning room eating with Shingo.

"I still don't know why you went through all of this just to eat with me" Maple brought up

"I would do anything to eat with you" Shingo smiled deeply "You mean the world to me"

Maple was touched by his words *Even though we broke up last year he still likes me?*

She slowly began to smile back and they continued to eat until the very last bite. When they were done Shingo left the house after giving Maple a goodbye hug. She blushed when he kissed her forehead and closed the door. Forgetting about the others Maple just went into her room and fell asleep.

"...Why does it feel like everyone forgot about us?" Moriko asked

Hani shrugged "Maybe they did"

Moriko sighed
