Hey readers! I'm sorry that this particular story took so long to update but I recently started a new job so writing time has fallen drastically but hopefully once I've gotten into the routine everything will fall into place. Now last chapter was mostly told from Harry's perspective this one will focus on the Host Club. Remember if it's not OC I DON'T OWN IT. Hope you like it.

Chapter Two

"He's always so charming." A young girl sighed as she sat with her friends a dreamy like look over her face.

"Kyoya do you know who are princess' keep referring to?" A tall blond haired teen asked his dark haired glasses wearing friend.

Tamaki Suoh had been hearing rumors since the first day of school of a young man who seemed to be charming the hearts of all the young women around him.

Whether he means to or not. Even some of the first year boys talk although most of them seem to think the boy in question is snobbish and not worth the attention.

"If I remember correctly only two people entered into this school without any past association with Ouran via either the Middle school or the Elementary school. Since the one they speak of doesn't seem to fit the profile of the Scholarship student they must mean the Foreigner. Black James adopted son of Black Sirius a Lord from England."

Kyoya Ohtori said never looking up from his notebook as the pair walked through the school towards Music Room # 3.

"Adopted son?" Tamaki asked as the pair walked into the room.

"Indeed however I don't know much about young James yet. Most of his background is kept hidden. Since he was adopted it makes sense that his biological family records are sealed.

Sirius-sama however I was able to learn more of. He finished in the top ten percent of his high school. Private boarding school that recruits its students from the time they are born if the web site I found is to be believed.

After school Black-sama went into Law Enforcement and reached the rank of Detective rather young. However during the terrorist attacks that accrued from 1967 to 1981 Black-sama was accused to being a member of the Death Eaters and imprisoned.

12 years later the Ministry responsible for his imprisonment learned that they had locked an innocent man away after the court had performed a Kangaroo trail.

After clearing his name Black-sama located his only living blood relative James...who is the grandson of one of Black-sama's great-aunts...and adopted him naming young James as his heir.

He brought James along with a family friend Remus Lupin to Japan both to escape bad memories and to start anew. While here Black-sama has started a company that offers different forms of Security from personal bodyguards to home protection.

In the three months since it's opening Marauders Incorporated has made quite the profit and has started to consider possibly branching out into other fields." Kyoya reported.

"What happened to Black-sama's family?" Tamaki asked as he sat down at the meeting table with the other members of the Host Club joining the duo.

"Black-sama's parents both died of old age while he was incarcerated not that that would bother Black-sama much. At the age of 16 he had run away from home it seems both of his parents and his brother believed in the lines the Death Eaters were spouting and he wanted nothing to do with it. Black-sama did have one sibling a brother who went missing and eventually declared dead by their mother."

"That's so sad." Honey said. Mitsukuni Haninozuka or Honey for short was the smallest member of the Host club. His gimmick was as a shota character a small young man with child like tendencies.

His wavy blond hair and innocent manner helped him with this not to mention the pink stuffed rabbit Usa-chan he carried everywhere. "What can you tell me about James since he arrived in Japan?" Tamaki asked as Kyoya turned a few pages in his notebook.

"He mostly keeps to himself however in the first week he arrived James underwent a physical at an Ohtori owned Hospital. There it was discovered that the past guardians responsible for James had been...mistreating him." Kyoya said making the group all stare at him.

"In what way?" Both Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin asked. Hikaru and Kaoru were the only twin members of the Host Club as identical twins the pair tend to pull of mischievous pranks.

They also pull a incest gimmick showing off a huge brotherly love for one another making the girls go crazy over them. The orange haired twins are first year students, and were usually only distinguishable by the way they parted their hair.

"According to his Doctor...a Higa Nobuo...James was suffering from a bad case of malnutrition. Also James has had several bones broken over the years that were never set correctly." Kyoya said not noticing the way both Honey and Mori's hands tightened into fist.

Takashi Morinozuka or Mori for short was the tallest member of the group standing over 6 feet in height he was stoic most of the time but everyone knew he was a rather gentle soul. He worked with Honey mainly because the pair were both third year students plus he was a good balance for Honey's childish ways with his silent but kind ways.

Tamaki and Kyoya were the only second year students in the club and are also the club President and Vice-President. Tamaki grasped his hands together. "Why has no one spoken about any of this?" He asked.

Kyoya knew he meant why had none of the gossipers of Ouran not gathered any of this information. "Doctor Higa along with a Doctor Asuma Mia were able to correct the damages done in James' body. In fact the treatments were so successful that no lingering outward damage is present."

The club members felt their shoulders sag at that the relief they felt after learning that bit of news. "James also took the time to learn Japanese and improve his social skills to make it easier for him to fit in at school. He has shown interest in a few clubs, but has avoided the newspaper club like they were the plague.

The clubs he seems most interested in include the Kendo, Football (Soccer), and Gardening clubs. Academically he is in class 1-A and has knocked the twins from their place taking the number two slot. Just behind the scholarship student Haruhi Fujioka by a small number of points."

Kyoya's report was met with the twins both lowering their eye lids at the shadow king of the club with their tongues out.

"Why is he so popular these days?" Tamaki asked.

"He's something new..." Hikaru started with Kaoru finishing up.

"...None of the girls in our class have ever spent a lot of time with someone not born in Japan." The twins said shrugging their shoulders together.

"His polite manner and striking green eyes help his case as well." Kyoya added.

"Girls have said that looking into James' eyes are like staring into a pair of the brightest emeralds. His gentle nature seems to be holding back a fierce warrior waiting to defend those around him.

However some of the girls seem to notice the small way James' eyes gain a sad tint and want nothing more than to take him in their arms and comfort him."

"The Foreign/Tragic type!" Tamaki shouted as he stood up with stars in his eyes making the other clubs members look at him.

"You want to recruit him then I take it?" Kyoya said it in a question but they all knew he was stating a fact.

"Indeed! Someone who has such a reaction from those around him would bring in girls of all ages looking to do everything they can to bring happiness, and smiles to the saddened face of such a young man! He's perfect for the club!" Tamaki shouted very as he went into his dramatic ways of waving his arms around him as he spoke.

"To bad the day is over and he's already gone." The twins said together making Tamaki freeze for a moment before he looked to Kyoya.

"Kyoya we need to learn the address of young James! We need him to join the club!" He called.

"I'm afraid you'll have to wait Tamaki." Kyoya said as he slid his glasses up making the light reflect on them hiding his eyes.

"According to my findings it seems that any club or team that wishes to have James-san join must first meet with either Black-sama or Lupin-sama in order to get their expressed permission to try and recruit James-san. Only then will James-san even listen to the proposal of the club/team. This is mainly for security purposes since Black-sama is a large target for Death Eaters still at large.

Thus making his son one as well. I will have to schedule a meeting with Black-sama before we even approach James-san."

"Is it really that dangerous?" Hikaru asked.

"How bad can people calling themselves Death Eaters be?" Kaoru asked before the pair came together to finish off their thought.

"The name sounds totally ridiculous and laughable." Both were surprised when it wasn't Kyoya who answered them.

"The Death Eaters are accused of over 63 cases of murder, rape, torture, and acts of terrorism. Their full number has never been assessed, but the British government has only convicted a small handful while the others that were accused got off on some minor technicality.

To this day they still live freely with their names cleared and rich from ill begotten gains." Both twins looked at Mori both surprised to hear his knowledge on the topic and to hear him talk for such an amount of time.

"Are we to assume James-chan was targeted before he was adopted?" Honey asked sounding serious.

"At the moment no. However I will be doing a more thorough investigation over the weekend should we gain Black-sama's permission." Kyoya answered the small third year.

"Very well we'll leave everything to you Kyoya contact me as soon as the meeting with Black-sama has finished and should it be a yes I will plan on how to approach young James-san to join." Tamaki said as he and the twins stood and made to get ready for the customers.

"Kyo-chan..." Kyoya looked at Honey as he and Mori started to stand.

"Takashi and I would like to go to the meeting as well. If Black-sama learns that the two of us will be helping to look after James-san he might be more willing to let us try." Kyoya took a moment to consider the words of the older host before he nodded.

"Very well I'll contact both you and Mori-Senpai on the information of when the meeting will take place." Honey and Mori nodded as they headed towards their station to prepare as well. That Saturday Kyoya, Honey, and Mori all walked into the offices of Marauders Inc all wearing their uniforms.

"I'm surprised Black-sama had the time to see us today I was sure that since he was here today he would be busy." Kyoya said as the trio headed towards a desk in the middle of the lobby of the six story modest building.

"Yes can I help you young gentlemen?" A pretty looking receptionist asked.

"Hello my name is Kyoya Ohtori with me are Mitsukuni Haninozuka and Takashi Morinozuka. We have an appointment with Black-sama." The cool type said with his best host smile making the woman blush slightly before she cleared her throat and started typing on her computer.

"Ah yes here you are. Very well if you'll take these." She said handing them three visitor badges. "Sirius-sama can be found in his office on the sixth floor northern corner."

The three nodded as they walked towards the elevator and rode up. They walked to see a small group of workers moving around some in suits others in more casual wear mostly men of different body statures. The few women all had an aura around them that screamed danger stay away.

"These must be some of the personal bodyguards the company offers." Kyoya thought as they continued on their way before they arrived at a desk where a young women in punk style clothing and hair was waiting.

"Ah you three must be the ones Mari sent up." She said in an accented voice.

"Indeed are you Black-sama's...?"

"I'm his cousin here to learn about a possible job but until it gets underway I help him out around the office. I'll go check to see if he and Remus are ready for you." She said standing up and giving Mori a look before heading into the office.

"It seems you've caught her eye Mori-Senpai."

"Ah." Was the simple answer Mori gave back while Honey smiled.

Soon the three were walked into a almost spartan decorated office minus three photos. One of a happy family of a man with messy black hair and glasses, a woman with long red hair and bright green eyes, and a baby with the mans hair and the woman's eyes waving.

The second photo was a past shot of the man from the first along with three other young teens. The final was of the baby in the first as a teen standing between two men one with graying hair and looked rather ragged while the other wore a suit with a silver chain in his pocket.

His long black hair hanging behind him with a trim beard and mustache. "Welcome young gentlemen." Kyoya looked at the speaker and saw it was the well dressed man from the last photo.

"I am Lord Black but you may call me Black-san or Sirius-san. I would rather avoid titles." Soon the door opened again allowing the second man from the photo...Remus Lupin...to enter.

"Ah Tonks was just telling me that our guest were here."

"Tonks?" Honey asked tilting his head slightly like an innocent child.

"The young woman who showed you in she prefers to be called by her surname since her first name is rather...embarrassing." Sirius answered for Remus as he motioned towards the seats in front of his desk.

The host sat down while Remus sat down in a chair behind and to the left of Sirius. "Now from what I gathered you three are part of a club at Ouran and wish to bring James into it am I correct?" Sirius asked making Kyoya nod.

"Why don't you first explain to me what your club is and what I can expect from you." Sirius said as he opened a small box on his desk and pulled out a wrapped sweet. After offering some to the host he sat back and waited.

"Simply put our club is what is known as a Host Club." Kyoya started before he rose up and took a folded up bit of paper from his inner pocket.

"And just what is a Host Club?" Remus asked while Sirius read over the paper.

"A Host Club is a club where women come and pay gentlemen to be their host. The host is to be just about whatever the customer wishes whether it's someone to fawn over them, someone for them to fawn over, someone with an open ear, or someone that just makes them feel important."

"Sounds like some form of prostitution." Sirius said bluntly as he handed the paper back to Remus.

"Only in the red light district would such actions happen. However regular host clubs never allow their host to sleep with their clients in the building.

As a school club our obligation is only during a small window of time and nothing inappropriate in the school is allowed. Our clients do not pay for our services but rather earn means through a point system allowing them to gather materials or make certain request."

Kyoya defended making the pair nod. "What is cosplay?" Sirius asked once he had the paper back in his hand.

"Cosplay is another way of saying 'Costume Play' it means that we dress up in a certain theme decided by our clubs president or a club meeting the day before hand."

"And just what role would James play in this Host Club?" Remus asked.

"Each of our host play on a certain type. Our president is known as the Kingly type because he acts in such a manner as a royal of France open and rather...dramatic.

Mori-Senpai here is known as a stoic type because he usually keeps to himself and only speaks when he feels it is important." Mori nodded at Kyoya's words.

"How many members of this club are there currently?"

"Our president Tamaki Suoh, Hikaru Hitachiin, his twin brother Kaoru, Mori-Senpai, Honey-Senpai, and myself. I am the Vice-president of the club."

"Mori-Senpai...Honey-Senpai...are you telling me that these two are the heirs of the Morinozuka and Haninozuka families?" Sirius asked motioning towards the pair.

"That's right Takashi and I are the eldest sons of our families our little brothers are only in middle school right now." Honey said smiling.

"You seem rather informed Sirius-san." Kyoya said making Sirius smile slightly.

"Most of the people who work for us have studied in the Haninozuka dojo. Also the few we've gathered that known of the swords arts constantly mention the Morinozuka family and their skills with a blade.

Both of your families are rather well known among those in the security business." Sirius said looking at Mori and Honey when he finished making the pair smile slightly at the knowledge.

"If the two of you are going to be part of the club then I do not need to worry as much about obtaining James a team of body guards since you two alone are worth almost hundreds of my best.

However whether or not James joins your club is entirely up to him you may go and speak with him about recruitment but the decision is his." Sirius said.

"That is unless Remus can think of anything I may have missed?" Sirius added making the trio look towards the man who had a thoughtful look on his face.

"Do you have people to watch over the club should you travel to different locations for your club?" He asked making Kyoya nod once before he elaborated.

"If you mean security wise yes my families Black Onion group is constantly on call and a squad is always with us when we leave school for planned trips.

In means of a chaperone however I'm afraid most of the time we're left on our own. Since a good deal of our customers as well as Honey-Senpai and Mori-Senpai are of age we are expected to govern ourselves." He explained.

"I've heard of your Black Onion group and know they are very serious about what they do so I won't worry about security. However if we are to trust you on the no chaperone part we will need a detailed report of all the information about the trip."

"I make a habit of providing all the parents of the host with such information that way they never have to worry about their sons." Kyoya said making Sirius and Remus nod.

"What type are you suggesting for James?" Sirius asked.

"Our president believes James would fit best as the Foreign/Tragic type a young man of foreign blood who seems to carry a tragic past on his shoulders." Kyoya said making both men blink before both their faces seemed to drop.

"I take it someone at the hospital talked?" Sirius asked.

"Not at all. I only know about James' records because I have access to all Ohtori hospital records. My father has always allowed his children to learn more about their clients since my eldest brother is a Doctor he uses the information to study strange cases.

Myself however I mostly use it if something catches my interest. James-san has been the talk of the school since he arrived I found myself curious." Kyoya explained before almost flinching at the hard look that came over the eyes of both men.

"I trust that no one outside of your club has been informed." Sirius demanded making Kyoya nod making both men relax slightly. "Very well you may approach James and try to recruit him for your club." Sirius said as he opened the drawer of his desk and took out a slip before signing it and handing it to them.

Kyoya reached to take the form but paused as Sirius held onto the slip before Kyoya could pull it away. "My son has been through some rather harsh times. He doesn't show it often but it has effected him. Any information that he himself does not give to the people at the school will be seen as an act of discourtesy against me."

Sirius said in a tone that almost caused shivers to run down the spines of the young men who all nodded before leaving with the form. "They seem rather protective of James-chan." Honey said as they got into the Morinozuka car that they had arrived in.

"Protecting their pup." Mori said making the other two look at him. "Both seemed like dogs or wolves protecting their young." He explained.

"Indeed. However this will making Tamaki happy and he can try to recruit James on Monday at school." Kyoya said as he looked at the signed form.

Tamaki was almost bouncing in his seat as he arrived at Ouran on Monday. All of yesterday he had been planning on how best to approach James Black. The vibration of his phone made him pause as he took out the device and saw Kyoya's name.

"Yes Kyoya?" He asked as he answered the phone.

"I'm just calling to inform you that it would be best to wait till after the Kendo club meet before approaching James-san. It seems Mori-Senpai also gained permission to recruit James-san."

Tamaki sighed a bit at that he had been hoping to approach the first year as soon as the day started but agreed to leave him alone till after his first meeting with the Kendo club.

"Mori-Senpai also informed me that if we wanted to come and see his first meeting we would be welcome." Kyoya said making Tamaki almost bark in his puppy dog way.

Later that day all of the host not part of the Kendo club were gathered in the gym sitting in the bleachers. Soon they all watched as a young man with European features walked out of the changing room wearing the uniform of the club with a helmet under one arm and a Bokken in the other.

His hair wrapped in a bandanna with a pair of striking green eyes for all to see. They also noticed a faded mark upon his brow that looked like a bolt of lightning.

"That's a peculiar scar." Kyoya said looking at his notes seeing that nothing about it had been mentioned in the hospital report.

"How do you think he got it?" Hikaru asked.

"Probably someone carved it there." Kaoru thinking that one of the Death Eaters after Sirius had done it.

"Or his past guardians did something to him." Hikaru added remembering how Kyoya mentioned they hadn't treated the young man well. Neither of them got an answer before Mori stepped out of the changing room and gathered everyone together.

They watched as James performed the basic warm ups with everyone not falling behind or looking out of place. Honestly Honey thought he was looking at someone who studied Kendo all their life instead of recently developing an interest. It made the Martial Arts prodigy wonder just what kind of life James had lived before now.

It wasn't until a member of the team challenged James that they saw something really interesting. "What's a pretty boy like you doing here?" A voice said in a jeer making James look at a boy with squid like hair and marks on his face.

"Learning." He simply said before once again returning to the drills Mori had assigned to him since he was new to the art.

"Shouldn't you be busy making the girls fawn over you? Mr. I'm so handsome I'll take the girls for myself." James merely looked at him with a raised brow.

"If that was meant to insult me you failed." James said before pausing as the Bokken was knocked out of his hands.

The room went silent as James once more looked at squid head. "Let's see what you're made of Pretty boy." He said putting on his helmet and moved towards the center taking a ready stance.

James picked up his training sword and placed his own helmet on. Mori stepped forward.

"This will be a two point spar. The first one to land two clean hits wins." He said.

James bowed to him before taking a stance while squid head ignored him and waited. "Begin!" Mori called making squid head charge before James simply side stepped him and struck a mark against his chest as he passed by.

Squid head growled as he turned to face James again while James moved to take position again. "He's very good at reading his opponent." Mori thought having noticed that James hadn't made a move till his opponent had.

This time when Mori started the match Squid head moved forward and attempted to slash at James. James blocked the move before dancing to the side when squid head tried to push him back.

The pair traded blows before James ducked and rolled pasted squid head when he tried a wild slash at his head. Squid head turned and rushed towards James who suddenly moved knocking the Bokken out of his opponents hands before bringing his sword to squid heads throat.

"Wow..." Hikaru said noticing a few girls nearby squealing at the sight of James winning.

"He's rather skilled isn't he?" Kyoya asked as James backed away from his enemy and bowed towards him in respect before bowing towards Mori. Mori returned the bow and gained an thoughtful expression that only Honey recognized.

The blond third year felt a small surprise before smirking. "Looks like Takashi has found a student." He thought as Mori approached James.

An hour later Tamaki along with the other host approached James with their offer. Originally he seemed put off by the idea until they mentioned that Mori was in the club as well. After hearing that James sighed a bit.

"I won't wear anything I consider ridicules. I refuse to perform acts that are not allowed on school grounds. Lastly if at any point in time I feel that someone here is using me for something I deem nefarious...I'm gone." He said to Tamaki who nodded at the conditions since he had a feeling that it would be the only way to gain him as part of the club.

At home Harry Potter sighed at the idea of once more being placed in the limelight. The whole point of coming here had been for him to blend in and have a normal life. This host club wasn't what he had had in mind. Heck he only joined in because Mori-Senpai was also part of the group.

Speaking of. Mori had expressed an interest in Harry's sword play and had offered to train him more in the art if he was interested. Something Harry fully planned to take up. The idea of learning a way to defend himself and those he cares about was without a doubt worth the trouble being around the Host club would bring.

So I haven't finished my idea towards pairing in this story but I leaning one of two ways Harry/Haruhi or Harry/Hermione but I won't tell you which until later in the story so please don't try and push for one or the other. R&R Ja Ne
