Chapter 10

It wasn't until an hour and a half later when Hikaru felt arms wrap around him from behind, and a pair of lips press against the nape of his neck. He closed his game console and turned around in his chair to peck his brother's lips with his own. He wasn't surprised that Kaoru followed his scent from their bedroom, to the library, and finally to one of the many living rooms that were inside the mansion walls. "How long have you been awake?"

"A few minutes," Kaoru plopped down on the couch and sat next to his elder half, looking over to see what game his twin was playing . "You know, you didn't have to use that technique on me."

"I have reasons for using it."

"Such as?" Hikaru let out a sigh as his brother scooted closer to him. He patted Kaoru's head, slightly messing up his hair. "I wanted to help you relieve some stress, because I know you've been thinking about your trial, and you've been losing sleep over it. Don't think I haven't noticed."

Kaoru leaned his head on his brother's shoulder, wrapping his arms around him. "By the way, Hikaru. How did your conversation with Father go? You never told me."

"You know what happened."

"I know, but I want you to tell me." The elder twin placed the console on the small coffee table in front of the two and leaned back. "Well, when I was on my way to the castle, I ran into Uke."

Kaoru raised an eyebrow, keeping his hold on Hikaru. "What would the younger succubus princess want with you?"

"She probably still has that little crush on me." Hikaru saw the anger and jealousy swelling up in his brother's eyes. He knew that Kaoru hated it when someone else had a crush on him, and after what happened with Haruhi, it wasn't gonna end well. He could already see the murderous look on his face. He shook the younger twin. "Kaoru you can't," He said while grabbing his shoulders and shaking him lightly. "Do that and you start a war between our races. Don't do anything. She's not worth it, and you're in enough trouble already."

The younger sibling looked down and shifted a bit, pouting at his brother, but he understood where he was coming from. Kaoru was scheduled to appear in court, and it would make himself and his family look bad if he killed more people. He lifted his head, wanting Hikaru to continue. "Then what happened?"

"Well."

Hikaru entered the castle through the cellar, believing that the guards would think that he was Kaoru; He wouldn't want that. Looking around, he saw that there wasn't a single person in sight, and he raised an eyebrow. This was suspicious, a little too suspicious for him. He would like to believe that his father told the servants to not be around when he arrived, but he doubted his father would ever hide his appearance like that; it's not his style.

Hikaru wandered around the empty hallways until hearing voices coming from the throne room; his father's and another man's. He couldn't understand what they were saying at first because they were talking so low, but the minute he heard his brother's name slip out of the man's lips, his eyes widened in fear. He wanted to know what the two men were discussing, but figured that his father would tell him very few details.

"Hibiki, I know you're there."

Hikaru cursed to himself as he stepped out from the darkness of the curtain, giving a slight glare to his father. The man bowed to his father before exiting the room. "I'm glad to see you, Hibiki, But where is your brother? When the two of you were younger, you wouldn't leave each other's sides."

"I don't plan to stay away from him long," Hikaru replied with a bored tone before leaning against the wall. "I actually came here to speak about Kazuo. If that's alright with you." His father nodded before leading the elder twin towards the Inner Gardens of the castle. Hikaru glanced around to see a few of the servants giving shocked expressions as the two of them paced down the never ending hallways. He let out an irritated sigh as he avoided eye contact. Of course they'd be surprised; it's been at least ten years since they saw at least one of the twins.

The two of them entered the Inner Gardens, sitting down at the small circular table, each of them being served with a cup of tea. "Father, I wanted to speak to you about Kazuo's actions." His father gave him a blank look, shooing the butler away and folding his hands on the table. "No matter what you say, it won't change my mind."

"Father please. Be rational," The elder twin stated. "Kazuo has done this for me. Hell a few times he actually killed to protect me-"

"And other times were for selfish reasons," He cut off the twin and glanced at him. "We kill only with reason."

"Kazuo has reasons to kill!" Hikaru stood up from his chair and slammed his hands on the table. "And those reasons are to make sure nothing happens to me. So just this once, forgive him."

"And if I do that, people would think it's not fair and believe that the Royal Family gets special treatment for breaking the law." Hikaru cursed to himself and glared at the man sitting in front of him. He had never felt so much anger towards a single person who's caused him pain. The only exception was Haruhi since she had more of an affect on his brother than himself, but he still hated her for putting Kaoru through so much.

Hikaru stormed away from the table, away from his father, away from the castle in general. He scowled in anger as he kicked the ground, crimson eyes burning with hatred and his horns and tail growing sharp. He couldn't believe what he just heard; his father cared more about the law than his own children. That's wrong for a parent, royal or peasant. More importantly, how was he going to explain to Kaoru about this meeting? Of course he felt uncomfortable about lying to his brother, but he also felt uncomfortable about telling his brother things he know he can't handle. Letting out an irritated groan, he started to pull at his hair in frustration. "Ugh what do I do!?"

"Hibiki."

He turned around to see the elder succubus princess cautiously approach him, a sad expression spread across her face. The elder Hitachiin gave her a look and lowered his hands. "Um about Kazuo- I'm sorry for what he has to go through."

"I don't need your sympathy," Hikaru replied to her while turning away. "I already have enough going on right now. Especially with dealing with what Kazuo is going through." The elder princess light tangled her fingers with his, gently pulling on his arm. "Do you care to talk with me about it?"

"No way." Hikaru pulled himself away and made his way towards the forest, having the girl sigh and return home.

A few weeks later, the twins entered the club room after returning to school. Opening the door, they saw that the other members were silent, their bangs shielding their eyes. Kaoru looked around to see it was just the Host Club; the guests weren't anywhere in sight; even Renge was nowhere to be seen. "Mind explaining why we're all gathered like this?" Hikaru asked while closing the door. Everyone turned to Tamaki, who kept his almost dead-looking eyes to the floor. It looked like he hasn't slept or eaten due to his pale face and the bags under his eyes. "I have gathered you here to tell you about my thoughts on Haruhi's little incident." Everyone stared at him with blank expressions, but deep inside, they were confused on the blonde's actions. Normally, if something happened to Haruhi, speaking about it would make Tamaki upset on many levels, but for him to be so wiling to bring up the subject brought up questions. "I won't lie, I was devastated when I heard news about her death, but I also won't forgive the person who's responsible," He lifted his head for his eyes to glance over everyone, his gaze stopping at the twins. "I noticed that you and Haruhi had some sort of hateful vibe towards each other," He said to Kaoru. "And then you talked with her outside the classroom, still having that hateful vibe. So I just need to ask you. . ." Kaoru kept the blank expression on his face. Both he and Hikaru knew what he was going to ask; everyone knew what Tamaki was going to ask. He had lined the pieces up, impressive for an idiot such as him.

"Were you the one who killed Haruhi, Kaoru?"

One again, silence and blank looks followed the question. Kyoya pushed up his glasses with a quiet sigh, closing his little black book and stuffing it under his arm. "Very impressive for an idiot king. Wouldn't you agree, everyone?" Tamaki glanced towards the rest of the club, who nodded at Kyoya's response. "But he hasn't figured out everything, has he?" Honey asked, clutching onto Usa-chan's ear with one hand. Mori just nodded with a grunt. Tamaki's face became confused as he turned towards Kyoya. "What do you mean?"

"I mean the fact that all of us here are different from you."

"You're stalling again." Kaoru stated to the ravenette.

"You know he's gonna do that anyway, right?" Hikaru asked his twin, who shrugged in response. Kyoya ignored the twins and turned back to Tamaki and was about to speak until a bright light shone in the room above them. "Oh. She caught on quickly," Kyoya pushed up his glasses and turned back to Tamaki. "As I was saying, everyone here in the Host Club is different from you, and I don't mean by social standards."

"He's talking about species."

Everyone lifted their heads to see Renge float down from the light instead of her usual motor-powered pillar, only her attire was different: insead of her uniform or any other sort of cosplay, she wore a white strapless knee-length dress with a matching short white cloak wrapped around her shoulders, gold sandals, and a pair of angel wings on her back. Tamaki was amazed at the sight, but also questioned what she meant. "Species?"

"You see Tamaki, not all of us are humans like you," Kyoya responded to him. "By that I mean everyone in the Host Club; You're the only human among us." The blonde king glanced around to see the blank expressions on everyone's face. No one spoke, and no one showed any objection to what the ravenette was saying; everything he said was indeed true, and it was about time for the blonde king to know the truth.

After thinking about it for a few minutes, his eyes widened in shock as he turned towards the group, having Kyoya smile and slip off his glasses. "A-Are you all demons or something?"

"Not all of us," Kyoya corrected. "You see, Hikaru and Kaoru, or should I say Hibiki and Kazuo," Both twins curled their fists when they heard him speak their true names. "They are the sons of the Demon King himself. As for the rest of us," Tamaki's eyes nearly popped out when he saw the twins sprout demon horns and tails as the ravenette kept talking. "Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai, otherwise known as Levia and Behemo, are the sons of the ruler of the Underworld, Hades," Both Honey and Mori sprouted much larger horns and sharp claws. "And as for me," The ravenette slowly emitted shadows from his body, having them spread out of the floor below his feet. "I am the only son of the Shadow King, the second-most superior life form in the Underworld." He turned to the caramel-haired brunette looking down on them. "Renge, your real name is Ente, correct?"

Renge nodded, her gaze still fixed on Tamaki. "But enough with the introductions; I find them useless in this situation. It's time for this disgraceful piece of trash to repent for his crimes."

"Crimes?" Honey-senpai raised an eyebrow. "You mean there's more to the idiot king than we thought?"

"Why yes indeed," Renge replied while closing her eyes. "You see, Tamaki here has angered our Lord and Savior, and has sent me down to the ground world to punish him."

"Oh I see," Hikaru turned towards the blonde king with a sneer, placing a hand on his hip. "What did you do to piss off God?"

"There are many things he has done, but one of the main reasons why is because this man has constantly compared his beauty to that of a god's. To us angels and our Lord, we find this to be an offensive act against us, and we almost saw it as a sign of war. Another reason is how he talks about equality when he doesn't show it, sneering at low-class people and telling them that they will never have the money he and his family has. And the third and final reason," Tamaki gave her a confused look as he listened to her listings. He had never found his comments towards commoners to be insulting; he almost thought that Renge was making this up just to get attention.

Renge glared at him with a deadly look in her eyes. "You have also offended our Lord by declaring that you are acting on his will, when you have really committed sin after sin, killing innocents when they have done nothing." Tamaki lowered his head to hide his gaze, but a small grin crawled onto his face, followed by a low chuckle. That low chuckle slowly grew to a loud cackle as Tamaki's head shot up to face the girl. "So that's what this is about," He sneered with a grin, his eyes filled with murder. "You've accused me of trying to make this world a much more beautiful place. I know God wants that as well; I was only acting by his needs. Whenever I saw someone with an ugly face, I simply prettied them up a little. If they resisted, I had to use, well, a more rough approach.. If they didn't accept what I did to make them beautiful, then I simply silenced them so they wouldn't protest. They looked more beautiful after what I did. Blood is a good look for them."

Hikaru turned his gaze over to Kaoru, who almost kept his gaze hidden, but through the bangs, the older twin could see his eyes turn from amber into a red crimson, a malicious grin growing on his face. He almost thought that Kaoru had the idea to kill Tamaki by the look in his eyes; he didn't want his brother into more trouble than he already is. The older Hitachiin clutched his hand tightly in a way to calm him down, but Kaoru kept that grin plastered on his face.

The older twin snapped out of his thoughts when he saw a knife pierced into Renge's stomach, and she stared down with a blank look. Slowly, she pulled out the knife with ease, making the blonde king's eyes widen. "You're such a fool." She said to him before turning to Honey-senpai. "I'll be taking him to be punished by my Lord. If that's alright with you, Levia."

"But you see, Ente, my father is the one who wants to have him," The small blonde replied. "So we'll take him off your hands. Right, Behemo?" Mori-senpai shrugged and nodded.

"Yes yes I understand that, but you see. My Lord has ordered me to kill this nuisance," Renge shot her glare back at Tamaki. "You can at least let me accomplish My Lord's orders."

"I honestly don't care," Honey-senpai shrugged in return before clutching the taller third-year's hand. "As long as our father receives his soul, he'll be pleased," He turned to Mori-senpai and smiled. "Then Father and everyone else won't look down on you ever again." Mori-senpai smiled and patted his head. They heard a click and turned to see Tamaki try to exit the room. Renge sighed in response to this and threw the same knife she held in his direction, making him fall back as the knife pierced the door. With frightened eyes, he turned back towards the nonhuman beings, eyes widening when he saw the girl raise a hand towards him, a bow and arrow materializing in her grasp. "I think it's about time we end this, don't you all agree?"

"Do what you want." Hikaru stated to her.

"It won't bother us." Kaoru finished while the rest of the Host club said nothing but glance at the blonde with crimson eyes. Renge raised her bow and aimed it for Tamaki, who started to tremble a little. "Come on, was this all a plan to get me to confess? You honestly think I believe you all when you say that you're not human? If God wants me dead, then why doesn't he do that himself?"

"My Lord doesn't like to get his hands filthy with the blood of sinners."

"Well now, that's what I call cowardly." The girl's eyes flashed with murderous intent the moment that sentence was spoken. She pulled back the arrow slowly but furiously. "Now this, I can't miss." Kaoru chuckled a little, and Hikaru could see the bloodlust in his eyes. He was afraid of what Kaoru was going to do. In all honesty, he couldn't care less about what happened to Tamaki; he just needed to know why his brother was acting this way.

Renge aimed her arrow at the blonde, and gave him a death-filled glare. "Tamaki Suou, for your crimes against My Lord, I will execute you. Now, repent." She let the arrow slip through her fingers, watching it pierce the blonde between the eyes. He fell backwards, slamming against the door with a thud, and sliding to the floor. The girl lowered her bow and relaxed her shoulders. Kyoya closed his eyes and let out a quiet sigh, closing his black book and turning to the others. "Now that that's been taken care of, how about we end this ridiculous charade?"

"I thought you would never ask," Hikaru smirked before giving the king a disgusted look of annoyance. "Words couldn't describe how much I wanted him dead."

"He honestly believed that we wanted to be a part of his stupid club," Kaoru continued for him, the crimson color in his eyes starting to fade. "What an idiot. I do admit it was fun being a host, but after a while, it just gets boring. You see the same damn girls every day and every time they fall for whatever we come up with for our charms."

"They truly are the dumbest creatures." Honey-senpai said coldly with a smirk. Kyoya couldn't help but chuckle at the blonde's statement before opening his eyes once again. "So we're all in agreement then. Then I now announce that the Ouran Host Club is officially disbanded."

One by one, the former members stepped out of the club room as Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai placed a hand on the blonde's lifeless body, and slowly pulled away only to hold a small blue light in their hands. The small blonde nodded to the ravenette, who had opened a dark portal. "I have to admit, I was rather envious of his life. He could live in freedom while we were both disliked by everyone," The tall ravenette turned to the smaller teen, who had spoken up. "But if I had actually turned out like him, I think I would have wanted to be dead instead."

"Levia." Honey-senpai looked up at his cousin with a smile. "It's nothing to worry about. All that matters is that we killed this fool. Hopefully people won't look down on us." Mori-senpai was reminded of all the times that his father's subordinates had looked down on himself for being half-human, and his half-brother who was small in size compared to the rest, and was believed that he would never meet his father's expectations.

"Well, we better get home. Just don't mention to father that we had an angel do our dirty work for us." And so the two of them turned back to glance at Tamaki's corpse, giving a malicious grin, and then entering the dark portal, having it close behind them.

And so the Ouran Host Club came to an end.

Me: Words could not describe how I was trying to write that scene with Renge killing Tamaki. And also if you know where Honey and Mori's names are from, I shall reward you with a virtual cookie. If you don't well take a guess. Anyway I'm kinda glad that I finished this chapter because it's been in the works for God knows how long. Anyway I have more ideas for future chapters thanks to a friend of mine so I'll probably update more quickly. I know that this chapter wasn't really my best work with this fic, but hey I fucking tried. So until the next chapter, await to see what more bullshit I come up with.
