AFTER THE OTP WARS OF OURAN...

A FEW DAYS LATER:

I crept through the halls of the hospital, fully dressed in jeans and a blouse, a hoodie on my head to hide the bandages from the surgery I had gone through 72 hours ago. I was humming the pink panther theme song to myself as I snuck my way through this god forsaken hell hole we call a hospital. Now, you may be wondering, Saki, how are you even conscious, let alone feeling OK enough to walk? Shouldn't you be resting from something like that? Are you insane?! The answer to those questions would be, high pain tolerance, yes and yes. Yesterday was the start of the Ouran fair! I have been looking forward to this since before all of this other junk happened! I just have to make a few stops before I make my way to school.

"Saki! Did you manage to get out undetected?" Aisley asked, joining me as we walked inconspicuously away from the giant medical building.

"Did you doubt me, cousin?" I asked in turn, smirking at my short relative. "Did you bring everything?"

"Of course." She stated, "Should we head to the boutique first or Haruhi's, though?"

"Boutique."

LATER THAT DAY:

"She was reported missing from her room this morning, somehow she managed to shut off all the machines and monitors without triggering the alarms. She was caught on the security camera's leaving the Hospital at 4:30 the morning." Kyoya spoke calmly, it was the first thing I heard as we pulled up to the school, none of the hosts paying much attention as Haruhi and Ace climbed out of the door of the limo.

"Oh, no! How will she manage to survive! Her surgery has made her weak and vulnerable!" The twins cried out dramatically. Takashi and Mitsukuni looked a little worried at this declaration. I snuck up behind the twins and hit them upside the head.

"WHO'RE YOU CALLING WEAK, PUNKS?!" I yelled, startling the entire club as they took in my appearance, eye's bulging comically at the pixie hair cut and the short body hugging dress. "Oh, c'mon, I know I don't look as great as I normally do, but it took me an hour to unplaster my hair from my head, you lot would have gone for the lacey dress too!"

"Saki! You look beautiful!" Mitsukuni exclaimed, glomping me in his loving fashion. Ace managed to keep me from falling over this time.

"Lookin' good for a woman who just broke out of a hospital!" The twins agreed with a thumbs up.

"We were worried for a second there." Kaoru added.

"Aww, and Kyoya! You do care about the little invalid!" Ace joked.

"She almost gave my dad a heart attack this morning. We woke up and she and Ace were making us breakfast." Haruhi commented, a fond grin on her face and she sighed tiredly.

"…" It was quiet for a few seconds, everybody and everything seemed to stop as Takashi slowly walked until there was less than an inch of space between their chests. Fan girls watched from the bushes, hoping their bets wouldn't fall through.

"Hey, Takashi." Saki smiled sweetly, looking up at the tallest host from under her eyelashes.

In a flash, less than a moment of time, I was pulled into one of the most gentle and loving embraces of my life. His hands were firmly holding my hips, and I could feel his heart beating through his chest. Everything about the situation seemed so… wild. But the way his lips caressed mine, the heat and passion, the care, and the, dare I say it, the love were overwhelmingly gentle.

I gasped, unable to hold it in in my shock; I could feel my cheeks flaring brightly, heat spreading from my head to my toes, gathering slowly in my core. In a sensory overload I was amazingly aware of the way his thumbs rubbed a circular motion on my hips, and the way despite how heated this seemed, he still acted as a gentleman and held back his hands from wandering. My heart was beating erratically, I thought it may pump right out of my chest. Things, feelings, I've never before experienced were awoken.

I reached up grabbing the back of his head and pulling him down to my height, returning the kiss sloppily, with fervor I had no knowledge of having. I could feel the light headedness engulfing me as I was sent to cloud nine. My bubble was popped by a loud clearing of the throat.

"So I'm assuming you've heard of our clubs dissolution?" Kyoya spoke, smirking slyly as the others watched us with knowing smile. My cheeks heated up brighter. Well there goes the moment…

"Yeah, Haruhi was saying Tamaki's engaged to some hoe-biscuit!" I exclaimed awkwardly, clearing my throat and straightening my clothes as I listened to girls fan-gasming in the bushes.

"I didn't say that!" Haruhi said blankly as all eyes turned to her.

"Nope but that's the conclusion I've made considering Haruhi and Tamaki are my OTP." I smirked as Ace giggled mischievously. "It's an Otaku thing." I explained at the blank looks the hosts were giving me…. Haruhi was slowly turning red as she thought over what that term meant. I had explained it before. "I'm going to go find the chairman; I have to have a few words with him and his mother." I spoke tightly, the joy draining away as the malicious intent glimmered through.

LATER THAT DAY (AGAIN):

"Chairman, Suoh-Sama!" I greeted the Suoh patriarch and his mother with a smirk that would have chilled Kyoya's spine. Mommy would be so proud. "I'm sorry to have to arrange a meeting with your family at such an inconvenient time; In fact I should be in a hospital right now so let's keep this to the point. Give me 3 good reasons why I should not dissolve the business and political alliances we have built up over the last year that you have so foolishly gone against by forcing your son, MY friend, into a marriage with that TONNERRE. Surely you're aware they're family is suspected of the attack on my home. They have indeed been suspected and several of the lesser family members accused and arrested of attack on my family at various periods. Are you going to associate your family name with the equivalent to the French mafia for something as petty as a threat from the family to buy you out? I personally can keep that from happening. Our many alliances assure that, and yet you, OLD HAG, YOU ARE SO BITTER AND FULL OF HATRED FOR YOU LOVING GRANDSON AND HIS MOTHER, AND EVEN YOUR OWN SON THAT YOU FORCE YOUR MISERY ON EVERYBODY ELSE?!"

"Surely my dear we did not know…" The chairman spoke, eyes wide as he turned to his mother, who wore an indifferent face.

"Do not apologize to the child, she has no authority in her family."

I hold all authority in my family, Madam Suoh, more so than you have. As of last month I have more than 45% of the Shimizu heavy Industries in my name, to speak to me as a child is to speak down to your superiors. You have miscalculated. You have let emotions cloud your judgment, and you have underestimated the intelligence of those whom you deem unworthy." I took a deep breath to calm myself before reaching into my bag to pull out a few folders I had collected from my own security teams, slamming them on the chairman's coffee table….

Meanwhile, Several minutes earlier :

"So what exactly is Saki planning?" The twins asked Aisley in unison as they escorted her back to the main fairgrounds and away from the chairman's office.

"She's planning on saving our asses. She's planning on a happily ever after for everybody here hopefully, but most of all, she's planning on having us to help her." Aisley spoke solemnly, following them into the club room, "This whole thing is a political and economic night mare. The Suoh's and the Ootori's are prime examples of the many families are in deep shit right now; and many more like the are completely dependent on Shimizu Industries and our family to keep them afloat. We are happy to help stabilize and suggest profitable business investments but not at the risk that they well in turn endanger our family by releasing our secrets to our enemies. People like the Tonnerre family are dangerous and have been against our cause in an aggressive manner especially recently." She summarized the situation to the best of her abilities, "Saki as been twelve steps ahead of any likely scenario's since she joined this motley crew, but the surgery was a draw back, now she needs our help." She finished explaining to the semi-assembled group.

"Still, the situation seems..."

"Less than satisfactory..." The twins spoke.

"Mmm... So it may seem..." Aisley mumbled, watching the twins be dragged off as Kyoya explained to her Haruhi's new situation, her face indifferent as emotions clashed. The sun set slowly on every-bodies hearts, as they called their beloved king's phone again.

BACK WITH SAKI:

"Lady Anne-Sophie de Grantaine was discovered working as a maid, doing strenuous labor when the Tonnerre main mansion was raided in France this morning for conspiring with terrorist agent against not only my family but multiple governments. a whole takeover the world kind of thing. her health is precarious at best, but nowhere near as horrible as we predicted it could possibly be, we are bringing her here to japan as the Shimizu family has long since been allied with the de Grantaine family since the French and Japanese first made contact. She will receive the best medical care on MY own dime."

"Mother!" The chairman seemed horribly unsettled by this news, the old hag really was putting these poor men through hell. Tamaki is like is father then, they both need strong women to lead them.

" The Tonnerre Family is currently being stripped of all property, investment, monetary or physical backings and insurances, both blackmarket, public, or underground dealings. That which you have fear most, that you have sold your most precious asset for, is now worth nothing. Ootori-sama should be happy, if he's smart enough to figure it out. His ass was saved twelve steps ago." Just then my cell phone clicked on, an alert sounding. "If you will please excuse me, sir, madam, I have to go rescue some of my best friends now. Please feel free to keep the files. They're copies, and they may help you reevaluate your life choices, especially you, Shizue. Anne-Sophie will be arriving tomorrow at 7A.M., if you wish to see her call first or you will be tased." I saluted, as I stalked angrily out of the office.

"Wait! Please, Shimizu-san," the elderly Suoh called, nearly breathless as she chased me out of the building.

"Madam Suoh, I'm afraid I do not have the time to argue accusations at this time, if would like to schedule an appoi-..." I was cut off as she held up a hand, her face showing a smirk similar to the one Aisley tends to sport.

"Young lady Shimizu, I have heard my grandson prattle on and on about each of the members of his beloved little club, none more than you lovely ladies, and now that I have met you, I can't wait to meet the cross dresser." She stated bluntly, cutting me off before i could say anything in Haruhi's defense, "I will begrudgingly admit I was wrong to force these decisions on his young shoulders, and i take all the blame. But do not hold that against my son, he does not deserve your wrath."

"I'm well aware of that, ma'am, but sometimes it's best for the stubborn people to be told off, as it were in front of others. You learn humility and maybe he will learn how to do some telling off himself. He needs it and so do you. Not all elderly are wise and not all youth are stupid. Remember that. Now excuse me, Suoh-Sama, I have to stop your Grandsons engagement." and with that I climbed onto my motorcycle and drove, bypassing traffic signs, taking backroads, and avoiding just about every stop light possible until i came out at the other side of the bridge where my brother had set up the blockade around the bend with the police.

"Saki, you're a pixie! It's so short! Almost like Haruhi but shorter! Why!?"

"Shut up and hurry Kazu!" I shouted, quickly driving passed him as I went to meet up with the Tonnerre car. just as it came into my sights a Haruhi driven Horse drawn carriage jumped off of the cliff and pulled up beside the car. "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!" I couldn't hear what they're saying but it' must have been good, Tamaki seemed to go for it, just as he was about to go with Haruhi, the Tonnerre girl grabbed his arm; Haruhi was falling out of the carriage, oh my god, "HARUHI!" I shrieked, watching Tamaki jump after her as the girl released him, I sent my bike skidding into a halt inches in front of the now stopped Tonnerre vehicle. Quickly jumping off I ran to the side of the bridge, abandoning my helmet and bike and searching the water for my friends, "TAMAKI! HARUHI!" I screamed, spotting them.

"S-s-shimizu-Sama?" I heard the small voice speak from behind me. I rounded on her.

"After all of the agreements?! All of the pacts?! All of the secrets and information exchanges?! All of the attempts I have made to assist you, Eclair? This is how you repay me? By stabbing me in the back? Well guess what?! All of my Hard work has finally come to fruition and I'm not even sure if i can trust you anymore! Engaged to Tamaki?! Don't give me that you were forced bullshit! I've seen the records! You volunteered! And what about his mother? Right now you are going with my brother, you are going to sit in the corner and think about your life choices and tomorrow you will apologize to everybody you have wronged with this little bitchy, falsetto, princess, spoiled ass, pain in the neck act that you managed to put on. Got it?!" I ordered, steely eyed as i started the shorter girl down.

"Yes, Shimizu-sama." She spoke softly, looking like a kicked puppy.

"Good, now Kazu is waiting just up the road, also, you will wipe that bright lipstick off and start using your normal shade again! You're killing me girl! The pink looks cuter and so do your lighter clothes! Away with you, my idiots need me." I said, waving her off.

"Oh man, he's such a moron..." Kyoya said as I walked up, propping my bike against a tree.

"But he's our Moron!" I smirked, running down the stairs to hug the idiotic almost-runaway.

"WHAT. THE . HELL. WERE. YOU. THINKING?!" Aisley was punctuating each world with a smack to the arm.

"Tamaki! You had me so worried! I had like five messages as soon as i work up from my surgery do you know how much planning i had to do?!" I exclaimed, for once doing to glomping of our beloved blonde, and planting a big wet smooch on his cheek, causing him to flush red, "By the way, I yelled at your dad and grandma! I think they like me!"

"WHAT?!" The club seemed to shout in unison, sans Kyoya and Ace who were in on the plan the whole time.

"Oi, just out of surgery, already had a stressful day, no need to shout. Also can somebody make sure i didn't open my stitches?"

LATER THAT NIGHT:

I have very much enjoyed the dancing so far this night. The Host and I, my family and I, rather as that's what we are now, managed to make it back to Ouran in time to enjoy the end of fair dancing festivities and whatnot. Quite lovely if i do say so myself. And I do. Haruhi and I have so far managed to dance with all the boys. I even got a dance with Usa-chan, and get kisses from both twin, much to Takashi's chagrin. But it still seems lacking. I saw Aisley whisk Kyoya into a broom closet earlier, and he came out looking rather ruffled while she had a rather victorious smirk so one need not guess what went on there... wow my thoughts are intelligent tonight. Yeah, they totally made out, I'll have to get her to tell me how far she got him to go later, I bet it was her way of making him celebrate for sticking it to his dad. But Takashi has been so distant...

"Saki." A deep voice came from behind, startling me.

"Eh, Takashi?! How'd you-... never mind, what's up?" I asked, perking up happily now that my BOYFRIEND was paying attention to me.

"..." He inclined his head, indicating for me to follow him, so I did, and where did we go... Well, that juicy little piece of gossip is definitely a story for another time ;)
