Important Note: Just so you know, it might get a little confusing in this chapter. So if I have "text like this" it is speaking, and if I have 'text like this', it is thinking. Also, thinking may be in a summarized form.
"Hey Kyouya," Tamaki whispered as he sided up next to his friend. "Are you sure no one is going to be in there?"
Kyouya pushed up his glasses, and glanced at the host club king out of the corner of his eye, "The data shows that the Black Magic club members all clear out at 4:00. It is now 4:34." He said in a smooth tone. "None of them are known to linger. There is a miniscule chance that one of them will be there."
Tamaki looked reassured. His fears of their dark magic put to rest for the moment.
"But what if it is the occasion for that miniscule chance?" Hikaru asked for the sole purpose of scaring the french man.
tamaki's head snapped in Kyouya's direction.
"That is not the case." He said with out a single change in expression or pause. "I checked the security cameras and there has not been sign of anyone in there since 4:12." His tone matter-of-face.
Haruhi speculated that that was the only thing that she had in common with the shadow king. They preferred not to dance around the subject as the other club members seemed to do at times. "Don't you mean hacked" she whispered to herself. She was certain that students where not allowed access to the security cameras, no matter how distinguished their background is.
"Did you say something Haruhi?" Kyouya asked in a falsely polite voice that clashed with the dangerous aura he was emitting.
"Ah," she sweat dropped "Nothing, nothing." she waved her hands in front of her in a negative gesture as she gave a nervous laugh.
"I thought not." he didn't even turn around.
'Damn rich bastard'
Tamaki, now confident that there was no danger, charged forward, and threw open the Gothic styled door that lead to the Black Magic club room without a second thought. Haruhi and the others shuffled in after at a much more sedated pace. They all looked around the room in curiosity, but with no clue as to where to start their search, or what they where searching for even.
"Takashi and I will look on that side of the room." Hunny said in a cheerful voice as he pulled his taller cousin with him as he bounded to the right.
"Yosh! we will look here." Kaoru said as he and his twin made their way to the back wall.
Kyouya sat down in a near by chair at a desk that was situated along the left wall.
Haruhi turned to the wall that the door that they had just come through was, and began to search the shelf's that where covered in books, jars, and other odd assortments that she didn't quite know what they where.
Tamaki, realizing that he was the only one left in the middle of the room, scuttled over to the left wall and began pulling everything he found remotely interesting off of the shelf's, and dropping it in a pile when he moved on to the next thing. They twins seemed to be following the same method. Haruhi just looked at them in disbelief.
"I don't think that's very smart..." she said in a slightly worries voice.
"What's wrong with it?" Hikaru asked, distracted.
"Well," she she placed the jar that she was holding back on it's spot on the shelf. "If you don't put things back where you found them, they might notice that we where here." she said as she lifted a heavy book and flipped through the pages, then shoved it back in it's place.
"So?" Kaoru shook a jar, it's contents making a disturbing squelching noise that just sounded unnatural.
"How many people do you know that would be willing and have a need to break into their club?" she gave him a flat look.
He looked at her blankly.
"Only us." she said pointed out the obvious.
Everyone was still for a moment, then the twins and tamaki began to scramble to put things back in there place, or as close to their place as they could remember.
"Ah," Mori's deep voice rumbled. "I found something." Haruhi and the others moved in closer to see what it was that he held in his hand. it was jar with a wall down the center, separating a black powder from a light golden one.
"How can you be sure it will work?" Tamaki questioned with a contemplative look on his face.
"It says so on the label." he turned the jar over so that they could all clearly see the label. On the black half it said "soul switching", and on the golden side, written in clear script where the words "reversal".
"YES!" Tamaki exclaimed, taking it into his hands. "With this I will have my Haruhi back!" He pried open the lid, and took a handful of the powder, and promptly threw it on the Kaoru, Haruhi, and Hikaru as he didn't know at the moment which was which.
Haruhi immediately felt a dizzying sensation over come her as she fell to her hands and knees, breaking out into a cold sweat. The whole world seeming to tilt with out her. For a moment, she was sure she was going to throw up. But as the nausea was about to over come her, and she placed her hand on her stomach in anticipation of bending over in order to heave out all the lunch and snacks she had that day, it was suddenly over. As if it had never happened in the first place. She took a moment to register the face that she felt perfectly fine.
'Ugh' Kaoru grunted in slight discomfort.
'What the hell was that?' Hikaru's voice came out disgruntled.
"Who knows" Haruhi slowly got to her feet which she immediately noticed where her own.
'I think I'm going to be sick' Hikaru grumbled as he hefted himself to his feet, and leaned against the book case next to him.
"Stop being such a baby Hikaru." she said in a slightly irritated voice. "It's already over."
Everyone turned to look at her with perplexed expressions. "What?" her tone slightly defensive.
"I didn't say anything." He said with a bemused expression as everyone exchanged looks that clearly where questioning her sanity.
"But you did..." Kaoru trailed off as he looked up at his brother from where he was reclining on the floor.
Haruhi nodded her head in agreement. "You where wining about being sick" she said in a matter-of-fact tone. Thinking that he must have hit his head when he fell down.
"Hey! I didn't hit my head!" He said slightly offended as Kaoru snickered to himself.
"Don't get offended, it's a plausible explanation for forgetting what you just... said..." but Haruhi had been watching his face, and he didn't say anything. His mouth had not moved the entire time. Suddenly the realization hit her. He didn't say anything, because he was thinking it.
"Oh shit" Kaoru's voice broke the silence.
"Care to let enlighten us? " Kyouya said in a commanding voice that left no room for argument.
"Well you see," Kaoru started.
"They are in their right bodes now," Hikaru continued.
"But I think our minds got a little mixed up." Kaoru rubbed the back of his neck.
"Because now we can hear each others thoughts." Hikaru's voice was beginning to calm down as he got control of himself once again.
Their bodies where no longer switched, which was a good thing, but now, their minds where mixed.
Haruhi felt a shiver run up her spine. This could not be happening. Right when she got one Hitacchin out of her body, two of them invaded her head. And she had things that she didn't want them them to know, especially one in particular... not yet, and she was not sure if she ever would. She had to force herself to stop that train of thought least she be found out...
Hikaru and Kaoru gave her a curious look. 'what don't you want us to know Haruhi?' they thought at the same time.
