Hidden in Plain Sight

Ch.1 – Chance Encounters

Kagome sighed as she stood just outside the school grounds. –I can't believe its come to this.- She thinks to herself. –Well, at least I have a scholarship so I don't have to worry too much about money, I guess I should be thankful. Here goes… Ouran High School… day one…- She walked through the hallways, noting the stares she got for not being in the school uniform. She didn't much care for the female uniform and so she chose not to obtain such a garment. Instead, Kagome wore a pair of obnoxiously bright green trip pants and a black hoodie, keeping her eyes hidden with a pair of shades with her hair pulled back in a low ponytail. After a short while of wandering she felt a tap on her shoulder, turning to find a student with short brown hair and glasses wearing a big sweater and a pair of jeans. "Can I help you pup?" Kagome inquired in a smooth, slightly deep tone.

"um… I don't mean to bother you, but have you found a good place to study?"

"I have not. I am in search of a quiet place to think. You may join me if you would like, although I do require the name of a possible companion."

"Haruhi. I'm one of the new scholarship students."

"Likewise. Names Kagome." The two walked in silence for quite some time before Haruhi pointed at a door in front of them.

"It's a third music room! No one could possibly be in there!" But the hope was short-lived when they were greeted by 6 boys once they opened the door. "We were just looking for a place to study –"

"Nonsense!" Haruhi was cut off by a blond kid sitting in the center of the couch. "As the school's commoners you were naturally looking for some attention! Welcome to the Host Club! I, Tamaki will be your sweet prince for this adventure! Allow me to escort you around! Now what shall it be for you tow boys? Honey-sempai is the shota-Lolita type." He points to a short blonde kid who's jumping up and down in excitedment. "Mori-sempai is the quiet type." He points to a tall boy with short black hair. "The little devil type which are the twins Hikaru and Karu. " He points to a pair of identical twins with reddish-orange hair. "Kyoya-sempai is the cool type." A boy with dark hair and glasses just shrugs before continuing to write on a clipboard. "Or maybe…" The talking male was in front of them in a flash. "You'd like to try me? I'm the prince type." He winks at them before Kagome flung him across the room.

"I suggest we leave Haruhi. This is no place for us to be."

"Agreed." The two move to leave but Tamaki grabs hold of Haruhi's arm.

"No! You can't leave yet! Please stay!"

"Get off Haruhi you insolent pup!" What could only be described as a growl came from Kagome, making everyone freeze. 'You will release my friend at once." Tamaki did as instructed backing off to hide behind the couch. Within the next few seconds a loud crashing sound echoed through the room and Kagome shifted her eyes to find Haruhi on the floor and pieces of a broken vase scattered around. –Oh shit.-

"Well now. It looks as if you won't be leaving." Kyoya smirks from behind his clipboard.
