A/N: I'm sorry, I'm so out of it, but I promised the first chapter up soon, so I'm doing my best to make sure it goes up. So let's get started, shall we?

Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran High School Host Club, but I do own Koemi Mizuko, so please ask if you want to use her, ok?

"Hi!" Satoshi peered at the girl who was sitting directly to the left of the kendo club door. "Do you want to join?" He gave her a smile and offered a hand to help her up.

"I'll go." The girl's voice could barely even be considered a whisper; it was breathy and softer than cashmere. She stood and heaved her bag over her shoulder, heading for the exit. "Goodbye." She murmured as she headed for the door.

"Wait!" Satoshi considered chasing her down, but somehow that didn't seem a wise idea.

The girl didn't give him a glance as she slipped out into the sunshine. She was just gone, the way a shadow could disappear with enough light.

"Who was she?" Satoshi muttered as he turned to open the kendo club door.

"Hey." Yasuchika smirked as his best friend jumped. Zona was pressed against the blonde's side, looking up at him.

"Shouldn't you be in Karate club?" Satoshi dropped the keys and Zona darted down to retrieve them, holding the keys up to him.

"There was an... incident." Zona smirked; she was apparently enjoying telling him this. "No one was hurt, but long story short, there's a broken window. They told Chika to leave the club closed for the day so they could get the glass cleaned up and replace it."

"Long story short I'm never letting new people join the karate club again." Yasuchika added and Zona laughed, causing the boy to blush.

"Alright." Satoshi looked between them, knowing he could get the full story later if he wanted it. "Do either of you two know who that girl was?"

"Koemi Mizuko." Zona sighed as Yasuchika shook his head. "Koemi is usually pretty quiet, but she has a temper like a lighter." The girl looked at Satoshi for a long moment before adding, "You could probably handle her."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Satoshi blinked at her in surprise.

"You know." Zona stepped away from Yasuchika and then promptly dragged him down the hall.

Satoshi exhaled in one big whoosh, then unlocked the kendo club door, propped the door open and started the club.

Still, he couldn't help but be curious, what had Koemi been doing waiting by the kendo club door?

When Satoshi exited the club, he found her there again, her dress in a puddle around her, a romance novel in her hands.

"Do you have a crush on me?" Satoshi asked, grinning. "Or do you want to join kendo club?"

"Shut up, Morinozuka! I'm reading!" Koemi whacked him over the head with her book. Luckily, it was a paperback.

"Hm, "The Samurai's Girl" huh?" Satoshi read the title as he sat beside her, studying her face. "Interesting choice."

Koemi sprung up, grabbing her bag and dashing for the front door.

Satoshi got the strange feeling that he was losing in this little game of hers.

A/N: The first chapter didn't go too well, but I should have the next one up tomorrow depending on weather. It's supposed to storm tonight and tomorrow, so I don't know. Anyway, what did you think?
