Wow

Wow. I haven't updated in like, forever! It's probably because I went into a Special A phase, then a Naruto phase, the Special A phase again. (Special A is a pretty awesome manga/ anime by Maki Minami. You should definitely read it!)

Sorry for taking so long to update, I just got a new laptop! (Yeah, what a great excuse)

I'd really appreciate it if you could review like, A LOT because my friends bet me that I couldn't get 100 reviews in the next two months. (Like a total of 100 reviews on this particular story.) I'm already half way there, so please, just review on chapters that you haven't already reviewed on? PLEASE?

P.S. Soon, I will be opening up an order form for one-shots. Any Ouran pairing, (except for yuri pairings.). Oneshots. Details will later be confirmed. And please visit my deviantart. Link is on my profile page.

I own nothing but my dignity.

Chapter 9: Breakdown!

"What is this thing?" Tamaki exclaimed.

Haruhi snickered.

"It's…"

"It's what? WHAT?" Tamaki half-heartedly yelled, too dazed at the fact that he was able to stand in the sunlight before getting turned into a fried bloodsucker. Haruhi laughed, shook her head, and then turned back to him.

"It's a seal."

An image of a white, rubbery animal perched on an iceberg and eating fish popped into his mind? Why would Haruhi put a 'seal' on his neck? To him, it just seemed like a sticky piece of paper that was placed on his neck. Or maybe he was feeling a piece of paper, and Haruhi had changed his complexion to match one of a white, barking mammal.

The mere thought of his beautiful complexion being turned into one of those…less fortunate made him feel weak. He dropped to his knees.

Haruhi rolled her eyes.

"Drama queen" she muttered. "Don't worry; I didn't do anything to you. It's simply a mark placed on your neck to stop you from disintegrating and becoming a deep-fried Tama-kun."

Tamaki looked up, and wiped some of the tears from his eyes. "T-Taka-kun?" He blinked, and the tears had completely disappeared. He sniffed. "I'd prefer it if you'd call me Otou-san." Haruhi glared at him.

,mnn"Shut up."

"But Haruuuuu-channnn." He whined and got back on his feet. "Father loooovesss you. That is no way to treat your father, Haru-chii!" At the rate that Tamaki spewed pet names at Haruhi, the more annoyed she got. He was like a factory, producing 10 ultimate sex-appeal, and 90 annoyance. Haruhi's brow twitched.

"Shut up, baka."

At that point, Tamaki's heart had shattered, turned into a fine powder, and was blown away with the cold winds of Haruhi's heart." He collapsed.

"Anyways, we really must get going. At this rate, we have to round everybody up, and make sure the demon students don't get into the sunlight. I don't want to be digging graves tonight." Haruhi sighed and rubbed her temples. I hate Halloween. Especially with these idiots.

"WAA! HARUHIIII!" Tamaki had composed himself enough to turn on the waterworks. Haruhi growled. Right, he was able to hear thoughts.

The twins had flown over to Kyouya, and appeared on both side of him. "Well, at least we'd have somebody to help do the ceremonial burying. Right, priest-chan?" The twins smiled in a mocking, innocent way. Kyouya sighed weakly.

Everybody stared.

That was a first.

"Guys, we really need to stay focused. At this rate, we'll never get anything done!" Haruhi put a hand on her hips. "Okay, I'm going to split us into groups."

She pointed to Kyouya. "Go outside, and try to purify as much of the dark aura in the school as you can. The cleaner we can get the aura, the faster I can do my work." Kyouya nodded slightly, opened his bible, and did a quick prayer. He walked slowly out of the room.

Haruhi turned to the twins. "You guys." The twins straightened up, and saluted her. "HAI!"

"I need you guys to go out and make sure that everything is under control. Break up any fights; make sure nobody escapes from the school grounds. And don't do anything retarded." The Hitachiins jutted out their bottom lips, as if saying 'why would you think we'd do anything retarded?'

If looks could kill, the twins would be dead. Mind you, they were already angels/devils.

Haruhi glanced at the two sleeping animals, and smiled. She couldn't help let out a silenced squeal; her inner fan girl was coming out to play. "As for those two…well, they look really tired. I think we should leave them alone."

"BUT HARUHII—"The death glare was shot at Tamaki, who simply flopped onto his side from the devilish look. It had seemed to him that Haruhi had taken the 'former dark lord Kyouya's 'spot. Even worse, she seemed to be mastering the position.

It all seemed to strange to him. Just a few hours ago, he was experiencing one of the most passionate and romantic moments of his life. (Until the angel/devil freaks had burst in and ruined their moment. He hated to think of all the love-making they missed out on because of the devilish duo!)

"Fine. Alright, I want all teams deployed now! She snapped her fingers. The twins stiffened, horrified expressions plastered across their faces as they had just lost their sense of free-will, spun around, and marched out the door.

"Haru-piyo-piyo!" Tamaki called weakly, his form lying helplessly on the ground. "What am I going to do?"

Haruhi wiped the small beads of sweat forming on her forehead off with the back of her hand. Her starlight coloured locks glinted underneath her witches hat. She turned to Tamaki, who was still sprawled out on the floor in a fetal position.

"Tamaki?" She dropped down to her knees, and sat down beside him. "There's a reason I left you behind. I need to talk to you." Tamaki propped himself up with himself elbow so his face was relatively closer to Haruhi's.

Haruhi flicked off her hat, and lowered her head so her silver tresses covered her eyes. Tamaki's dramatically depressed face looked up earnestly and blinked a few times. She looked genuinely sad at that moment. He fully leaned upwards and brushed aside her bangs.

Her eyes were cast downwards and her bottom lip trembled. Tamaki blinked again. "Haruhi…?" She looked upwards, and a forced smile appeared on her lips. A small, hardly visible, forming tear had begun to peek out from the corner of her eyes. "Heh…" She muttered dejectedly.

"What's wrong, Haru-piyo?" Tamaki lifted a finger to support her chin, and slowly pushed it upwards, lifting her head. She smiled and rubbed away the tear, and forced out a laugh.

Her reddening eyes looked up and searched his desperately. "I'm just so confused, Tamaki! This has been so stressful, despite all some of the better times… I just…can't take it." She gasped and dropped onto his lap, clearly exhausted and overwhelmed. Tamaki caught the girl before slammed her head, and cradled her close.

"Oh, Haruhi, you try so hard to make us happy…" He whispered. He picked the little witch up and carried her to the couch. He lightly set her down, and leaned over. He gazed at her snoozing face and smiled. Tamaki leaned over, and planted a soft, tender kiss on her forehead.

"I love you."
