This is my first fanfiction so please bare with me. I would appreciate reviews. I have decided to do Ouran Highschool Host Club, where the anime left off that is. Some things from the manga may turn up but I'll make sure it isn't confusing. Anyway, Enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own any characters in the Ouran high school host club. I do, however, claim ownership of my OC.

WELCOME 3

When the door opened the girls of Ouran Academy were greeted by the sight of seven boys all bedecked in pirate splendor.

"The host club really is in top form today, aren't they?"

"Oh yes! I don't remember the last time they looked so elegant!"

Tamaki swept up to his usual customers that were huddled onto couches shaped like ships.

"Milady it is you who are the pirate...for you have pillaged my heart and stolen my love." He gently touched the underside of the girl's chin, causing her to look up at him. The rest of the girls squealed and swooned.

Top form...right. Haruhi Fujioka thought while observing from a distance. Its like the Ouran Fair never even happened.

"Haruhi you look so dashing in that pirate hat! If only...if only I were staying. I would be able to see you in things like this everyday." Renge, the club's 'manager', sniffled.

Suddenly the rest of the host club appeared around her, all of them looking confused.

"What do you mean Miss Renge? Are you not staying?" Tamaki asked.

"No my father has told me that I have spent enough time dallying here and it's time for me to go home." Renge burst into tears and was quickly handed multiple handkerchiefs from every direction. She carefully selected the one offered by Haruhi, not noticing that in her haste Haruhi had simply grabbed a clothe napkin. "I leave the morning after next."

"Oh. Then you'll be staying long enough to greet the new student." Kyoya said without looking up from his black notebook.

All the hosts and customers looked at him and said in unison "New student?"

"Why yes. She'll be transferring into class 2-A so Tamaki and myself have been chosen to escort her around campus on her first day. I told you this Tamaki." he said matter-of-factly. Everyone turned to look at Tamaki.

"Oh umm. Must have ...slipped my mind." He blushed slightly.

"Well what is she like? Where does she come from?" Renge asked impatiently.

"I'm afraid that I cannot tell you that. Excuse me but Haruhi I believe a few of the tables are in need of more tea." Kyoya then left, writing in his book all the while.

After all the customers had left the club members gathered around a table for an after activities meeting.

"So Kyoya. Could you really not tell the girls about the new student or is there something you don't want them to know?" Tamaki asked after they had discussed the details of tomorrows event. Kyoya sighed and placed his pencil in his notebook before snapping it shut.

"Ooohhh he closed the book. This is serious." The twins joked.

"Both actually. I couldn't tell the girls anything because I hardly have anything to tell; and I didn't want the girls to know that."

The host club looked at him in wonder. Even Hunny paused in his cake eating to look at him. The man with all the answers was just as in the dark as the rest of them. After a few moments of silence Hunny spoke.

"Well I guess it'll be a surprise!" he laughed in that cutesy way of his then started eating his cake.

"Come now you must know something." Tamaki insisted with a slight laugh. For some reason the fact that Kyoya, of all people, didn't know about this person made this new student seem frightening.

"Just what the chairman told me when he instructed me to escort her. She is American and, while her family own a prominent mining company, most of her family's wealth is 'old money'."

Haruhi tilted her head and asked "Old money?"

The twins immediately started fawning over her and saying things about the 'blissful ignorance of commoners'. Just as Haruhi looked as if she would explode Kyoya gave the twins the death stare and they immediately backed off.

"Old money is the wealth that was passed down through generations. Though from what I could gather with the chairman her family has so much of it, its amazing to think they still work at all."

"Ah. I see. But what is an American doing coming to a Japanese school?" Haruhi asked.

"That's something I don't know." Kyoya replied, looking genuinely puzzled.

"Well I suppose we'll just have to ask her once we gain her trust and earn her friendship!" Tamaki announced in that overly flamboyant way he had. "Now. What is her name?"

"Eyrie. Eyrie Omorfie." Kyoya replied, reading from a page in his notebook. The hosts looked at him blankly. It was the twins who broke the silence this time.

"Eyrie Omorfie?! Oh my god that's priceless!"

"Who would name their kid that?! My sides!"

" I can't wait to see what she looks like! With that name her parents must have been trying to compensate for something!"

Haruhi and the others sweat dropped as they watched the two of them roll on the floor in laughter.

"Um...you might not want to react this way when you see her if your assumptions are true." Haruhi said weakly.

"In any case she will arrive earlier than anyone else tomorrow for a tour of the school so that means Tamaki and I will as well. Oh and Tamaki your father said he would also be there if he had the time. That is all. You can all go now."

"But Kyoya-sempai, what about Renge?" Kaoru asked suddenly. Kyoya turned back and looked at him, confused.

"What about her?"

"Well without Renge-chan we wont have a manager!" Hunny said around a mouthful of cake.

"Ah. Yes well. She didn't really do anything. Her presence wasn't profitable so her absents wont harm the club in any way." Kyoya stated with a shrug.

"Kyoya! How could you say something so cruel about someone who served us so loyalty for so long?" Tamaki swept into the conversation with his usual flare. "I say that tomorrow we let Miss Renge join us in our club activity! For old times sake of course!"

"But she never has before so it really wouldn't be like old times." the twins stated dryly. Tamaki ignored them and continued to talk, flailing his hands around in a show of excitement.

"We could cosplay for the new student! That way Miss Renge would have the pleasure of making her acquaintance before she left and Eyrie could get the full Host Club experience! We would, as Americans would say, kill two birds with one stone!"

Tamaki looked around the room with a self-satisfied smirk, waiting for approval.

"That sounds like fun! That would mean Takashi, Haru-chan, Hika-chan, Kao-chan, and I would get to meet her too!" Hunny exclaimed excitedly. "Wouldn't that be fun Takashi?"

The big guy looked down at his younger-looking cousin with a slight smile and simply said, "Yeah."

"Well we're definitely in. We want to see if this person can live up to such an elaborate name." Hikaru stated.

"I have no problem with it." Kyoya said after thinking about it. They all turned to Haruhi, who immediately sweat dropped.

"Um well my debt is paid right? So I don't have to worry about my quota anymore...which means I don't have to do whatever you guys tell me to do right? I don't really care if I meet this girl."

"Aw c'mon! Don't be a party pooper!"

"This'll be fun! You'll see!"

"There'll be cake!"

Whining shouts from around the room, urging her to change her mind, finally wore her down.

"Fine. Whatever. I'll go." Haruhi grumbled.

"Oh by the way that reminds me. Since Haruhi is not obligated to do the chores for the club anymore we will need someone who is. Ideally that would be the manager but we are losing her as well. It seems as though we will need a new one."

Kaoru and Hikaru looked at Kyoya with raised brows. "I thought you said the position of manager wasn't profitable."

"It wasn't. Then Haruhi mentioned her lack of debt and I found a way for it to profit us." Kyoya said with a slight smile.

That's the Shadow King for you, the twins thought.

"We should start thinking of a replacement soon." Kyoya stated. "And someone will have to call Miss Renge to tell her of her involvement in tomorrows activities."

They all turned to Haruhi.

"Wha- um wait...I don't even have her number. And even if I did, what would I say?" Haruhi asked holding her hands in front of her in a defensive posture. l

"Simply the facts will do." Kyoya stated handing her an already ringing cellphone. Haruhi snatched the phone from him with a glare and pressed it to her ear.

"Oh uh Renge? Yea it's...it's Haruhi." the hosts could clearly hear the squeal and the girlish chatter that followed. "Renge! Hold on a sec! Slow down! No the reason I'm calling is that the host club is giving you a going away present of sorts since you're our manager and everything. We want you to join us in a cosplay activity tomorrow to welcome the new student."

The squeal on the other end of the phone was so loud Haruhi had to hold the phone away from her ear. The other host winced in sympathy and she tried to bring the phone back to her ear only to be met be high-pitched chatter and occasional squeals. Haruhi finally managed to hang up after explaining the cosplay to Renge.

"So I'm guessing she said yes?" Tamaki asked. Haruhi gave him a glare so violent it sent him into his dejected stance in a corner.

"I'll have to rush order these costumes but other than that we should be fine." Kyoya said, texting something on his phone.

"Kyoya-sempai...I'm confused. I mean you usually only help people when it profits you but you seem to be very willing to help this new student. If her family only owns mining companies, how could helping her help you?" Haruhi asked.

Kyoya looked up in surprise. "That was certainly observant of you Haruhi. Yes her family only owns mining companies at the moment but the fact that she has old money means that at some point her family took part in many different businesses so it goes without saying that her family would be influential. And a mining company tends to have dealings with many different companies as well. You'd be surprised how many devices we use require quartz to function. So it would be safe to say that helping her would definitely help me as well."

Haruhi's expression turned bland. Of course.

"Now if there truly is nothing else..." Kyoya scanned everyone's face. They all shook their heads quickly. "Good. Now the meeting is over."

I hope you all enjoyed the first chapter of my first fanfiction. Woohoo! I normally don't like OCs when I read fanfiction simply for the fact that they usually end up ruining the romance and ending up with a character...which I actually plan to do but anyway...(so hypocritical -_-" I'm awful...) This is usually because I'm too stubborn with who I decide should be a couple, whether it was that way in the anime/manga or not. It might also be because OCs are usually added in in a sort of sloppy manner and that ruins the structure entirely. BUT! I have decided that I need to expand my horizons and open myself to new things. So please review and tell me what you thought! Constructive criticism is welcome! Also I plan on posting AT LEAST once a week. Thanks!
