Chapter two:

Haruhi slightly groans as the twin returns with a costume that looks more like it would be something to wear on Halloween or to entertain guests. "What is that?" She questions them though they look confident about this idea.

"A costume. Duh." The twin holding the costume points out with a slight shrug. "Just put it on."

Haruhi sighs though she takes it figuring that at least this way she'll be able to get this part over with. She slips to a more private area and changes before pausing to look into the mirror finding that she is wearing quite the outfit. She has on black tight fitting pants with a black shirt overtop. She is holding the part that would make it look like perhaps a kimono or some kind of samurai outfit. She decides to not put that part on and walks out. "Okay. I am not adding this part because it has dangle parts that I would have to worry about." She explains and the twins shrug to this.

"Hey. Whatever you want to get this done." They respond in unison making Haruhi almost blurt out 'oh brother' before managing to stop herself.

Haruhi gives them the last part of the outfit before she allows herself to be attached with rope. She heads into the vent with the twin that is attached to the other end of the rope following after her. She gets to a spot where she can look down upon the vase. She tells herself silently to get this over and done with. She removes the vent cover quietly managing to shift it to be able to brought into the vent. She carefully places it down to keep the noise down. She looks back down at the vase below. She suddenly feels her nerves come up. She swallows as quietly as she can before trying to tell herself of the best path through the lasers. She gets a light nudge from the twin behind her and she carefully lowers herself down from the open vent. She goes feet first before swinging around carefully turning to be head first. Her mind slightly spins as she is lowered towards the ground. She is barely able to keep herself together despite seeing something that is getting her survival adrenaline up and running. She reaches for the vase telling herself over and over where the lasers are located. She can do this. She has to be able to get it. She cannot fail this. She cannot fail an assignment. She slightly knocks the vase causing it to wobble. She quietly gasps and tries to catch it before it falls.

The vase tilts away from her grasp despite her best trying to reach in that direction. It slows before it shifts to roll to the right indicating that it is about to fall.

Haruhi feels the sweat from her forehead start to soak into her mask. She swears that her heart is about to burst out of her chest as she can see herself failing this mission happening before her very eyes. She forces herself to try to reach just a little further knowing that this is her last hope to be able to reach the item. She manages to hook her pinky finger on the vase handle. She uses the bag of candy replacing the vase as she lifts it up. She just hopes that no silent alarm was triggered by the vase moving on the spot it was on. She lets out an almost silent breath of relief as she pulls it close. She tugs on the rope to say that she got it. She is raised up and she keeps the vase clutched close to her chest. She is pulled into the vent and she lets out another almost silent breath now that she is in the vent.

The twin in the vent with her motions like he zips his mouth shut to remind her to not say anything like that she got it. He leads the way with her following after him to make it back to the other twin.

Haruhi changes back while the twins hold onto the vase that was just stolen. She returns with the twins wrapping the vase into an Ouran uniform blazer.

"Okay. Let's go." One of the twins whispers and the three quietly make their way towards the way out.

They all stop as they can hear heavy footsteps that sound like those meant to be guards coming back to check on things.

Haruhi feels nervous knowing that the guards are going to notice that the vase is now gone. She also doubts that they'll be able to get past them this time. She shivers at the thought that they are doomed.

"Calm down." One twin mentions glancing to her slightly unimpressed.

The other twin looks to her as well. "One part of being a good thief is knowing the building. And lucky for you we know our club room like the back of each others hands."

The twins lead Haruhi to the opposite end of the club room from where the way in is. They shift a fake curtain revealing a door behind the curtain that looks like it is a part of the wall.

"What?" Haruhi blinks in confusion at seeing this wondering what is going on with this.

"It's another club room basically. Just not ours." One of the twins mention then open the door heading into the darkness.

Haruhi hesitates wondering if this is really the best idea of escape. She knows that surely they will be caught trying to escape this room. She jumps as she hears the shout from a guard.

"IT'S GONE!"

Haruhi moves through the door into the darkness quietly shutting it behind herself as the curtain falls back into place. She sees the twins up ahead moving through the darkened room only lit ominously by candles. She follows them looking around herself at what she can see. She sees a lot of cat and occult looking things that confuse her as to them being in the same place. She turns around from looking around only to stop as she finds herself face to face with someone hunched over in the darkness. She nearly jumps out of her skin at this sight.

"My my." The figure hums as Haruhi realizes that she can't see him all too well… Like he is wearing some kind of cloak. "Now you're an interesting one." This guy reaches towards Haruhi's face as she leans away getting a bad feeling about this guy.

"Nekozawa!" The twins speak making the guy stop and turn to them. "Leave her alone!"

"Hm." Nekozawa stares at them for a moment. "You wish to not be known of having come this way." He analyzes and Haruhi really hopes that they'll be able to convince him to keep his mouth shut. "Would be a shame if you were discovered."

They all turn at hearing some knocking on a door further in the darkness.

Haruhi is really terrified about what will happen and she feels dread closing in on her once more as she hears a guys voice arguing about needing his flashlight. She looks to Nekozawa realizing that them passing this test hangs on this guy. Her racing mind tries to figure out what she could offer him so he will keep his mouth shut about seeing them here. She doubts that she has anything that he could want that he cannot get from buying it. She swallows with her hands starting to shake especially as the doorknob is heard jiggling as if about to be opened.
