《The Second Fujioka [ohshc][Mori Love Story]》Chapter 8
Advertisement
The summer holiday has started and the Fujioka sisters are both at a B&B. Ryoji wanted Haruhi to go somewhere, he'd be able to keep an eye on her even though she is busy, so his friend agreed to take Haruhi in for the holiday and Aimi wanted to spend time with her sister, so she is a guest at the B&B.
Haruhi was outside hanging the laundry and Aimi watched from the outside table, "Having fun, sis?" Aimi smiled at her.
"Yeah, you?" Haruhi smiled at her and Aimi smiled walking over to her.
"Yeah, it's so quiet," Aimi commented and looked at Haruhi, "It's so weird without them, but so nice at the same time."
"HARUHI! AIMI!" A voice comes from above them and they froze.
"Surely not..." Aimi mumbled and they heard a noise of a helicopter above them. They looked up to see a blue helicopter, "Oh god..."
"HARUHI! AIMI!" Tamaki shouted to them, "Are you alright?! Daddy's here!!"
"Wonderful..." Aimi mumbled and walked off inside, "Misuzu," She called out to her father's friend, "We have more guests..."
"Oh? You don't look very happy about these Aimi dearest," Misuzu looked over.
Haruhi walked in with the Host Club, "Oh my! What dashing young men you are!" Misuzu cooed over the boys, "Are you Haruhi's and Aimi's friends?! How do you do, I'm Misuzu Sonoda. I'm the owner of this fine B&B. Please call me Misuzu."
Aimi sat at a table watching the scene play out, she stayed quiet as Misuzu cooed over Haruhi, "She's turned out to be a great worker! Unlike her sister," He looked at Aimi, "At least take part Aimi-Chan!"
"No thank you," Aimi leaned back into her seat looking through her phone for something to do as the Host Club sat at the same table as her.
"We didn't expect you to take on a summer job Haruhi. No wonder you declined to go to Bali with us," Hikaru said.
"Same here! My invitation was for Switzerland," Honey said.

"Guys, I don't have a passport," Haruhi replied.
"That's why I suggested one of my family domestic resorts," Kyoya said.
"And Aimi-Chan! You declined as well," Honey pouted looking at her.
"I wanted to bond with Haruhi, so I go wherever she goes," Aimi told them with a smile.
"No fair!" The Hitachiin twins whined.
"Guys... How come you all extended personal invitations to Haruhi and Aimi..?" Tamaki questioned, "You care only about yourselves! What about out solidarity!? As president of the club, I was slaving to come up with a plan for everyone!" Tamaki yelled at them.
"Haruhi, you switched off your cell phone, didn't you?" The Hitachiin twins questioned.
"But it's too much trouble," Haruhi rolled her eyes.
"Aimi you did yours as well," Kaoru said.
"No, I just hung up when you rang me," Aimi smirked at them.
"H-Haruhi has a cell phone?" Tamaki questioned.
"Yeah, we told her to loan one of ours so we can keep in touch," Kaoru said.
"It's a 'Friends Only' model, we're in each other top 5! Aimi, Haruhi, Kaoru and I," Hikaru grinned.
Aimi watched Haruhi interact with the boys, trying to get the boys to go home, "According to the handbook, rules number 19, no jobs allowed," Kyoya said and Aimi shrugged.
"It's true that you're free to spend the break however you want," Tamaki said and Haruhi and Aimi looked with him with eyes wide, "That means you don't have the right to stop us either!"
"You're a bunch of idiots," Aimi insulted and got up walking to the door, "Let me know when they have gone Haruhi," Aimi walked out slamming the door behind her.
Misuzu watched with saddened eyes, "I see why she wasn't happy earlier..." The high schoolers looked over to him, "You boys have to understand, Aimi was taken from Ranka at a young age... I'm sure you all know the story," He looked at them and smiled, "It's wonderful you are all friends and want to be with your friends during the holiday, but what about mending a sibling bond..." He looked at Hikaru and Kaoru, "I'm sure you two know how difficult it can be with others around."

Kaoru and Hikaru looked at each other then Misuzu, "We understand all too well," they nodded.
The Host Club boys were to start a refresher competition tomorrow to get the spare room.
It's been a few hours and Aimi hasn't returned, "Misuzu, can I go find Aimi? She isn't back yet," She said and the Hitachiin twins looked over.
"Haruhi, the boss should go," The twins say in sync.
"Huh? Where am I going?" Tamaki asked walking up.
"To find Aimi! Your idea to come here and not leave," The twins pushed him out the door, "Don't return without her, you shouldn't leave a princess alone!"
Meanwhile, Aimi was sat in a coffee shop writing lyrics letting tears fall in frustration. She doesn't know why it annoyed her so much, but it did, the plans the two of them had, ruined.
She looked out the window tapping the table as she drunk her coffee, "Finally," She heard a familiar voice and someone sat opposite her, "Found you... You didn't get very far."
She glanced up to see Tamaki smiling at her, "Buzz off," She sneered and Tamaki picked up the lyrics and read them causing her to blush, "Give it back!" She snatched the piece of paper from him, "This is what really pisses me off with you and the boys, you've been spoiled all your goddamn lives, never had to truly work for anything. You think you can just drop in whenever you want and everyone will just allow it and go along with you. Unfortunately for you, Haruhi and I weren't built that way. You're an only child so I doubt you even understand why I'm pissed," She sipped her coffee.
Tamaki stared at her in shocked, "I was worried something had happened..." He muttered.
"You didn't call me or text me," She looked at him as her tears fell.
"What? You're crying?" He leaned over and wiped away her tears, "Look, I'm sorry, I worried for my daughters."
"We already have a dad, we don't need another one," Aimi looked away, "You're only here because you were told to be."
"Ouch... Come on Aimi why are you so pissed off? Talk to me, I'm your friend aren't I?" Tamaki asked.
"Yeah, we are," She wrapped her arms around herself as if to protect herself, "Haruhi and I, only got back together when I met you all and we used to be really close before I left but because of not being allowed to travel back. The bond we had, broke... yeah we wrote letters and emails to each other, but when you don't see someone the bond can break..." She looked at him, "A sibling bond can break where a parent and child bond won't."
"I understand..." Tamaki nodded.
"You are the hosts, I love you all... You're like an extended family to me, but I'd like to bond with my actual family for once," She admitted, "Call me selfish or whatever I don't care."
"You're not selfish, it's normal," Tamaki smiles, "I understand Aimi, I won't get in the way of you and Haruhi while we're here," He said and stood up, "Come on Haruhi is worried about you, that proves the bond is still there," He told her.
"You sure it is?" Aimi finished her coffee.
"I know so," Tamaki took her hand and they went back to the B&B, "Look what I found," He smiled.
Haruhi looked over and ran over to them, she wrapped her arms around Aimi, "Don't scare me like that," Haruhi said as Aimi hugged her back, "You're more important than the idiots we hang around with."
"We heard that!" The Hitachiin twins yell and smile, "Aimi," Hikaru walked over and rubbed her back, "You okay? Us elder siblings have got to look out for each other right?" He grinned.
"Yeah," Aimi stood up straight and looked at him nodding, "We do."

The Joker, The Trickster, and the Magician
Wolfram Sakimoto, an infamous criminal, was about to be executed in a secret military facility only to survive by a sudden earthquake that struck the whole world and turned it upside down. With the appearance of strange and absurdly powerful monsters, humans started their final struggle to survive this tragic calamity. Wolfram, however, found joy and not despair in this drastic change. A lunatic on the loose, without any morals to uphold, only his thirst to battle the strongest. PS: This story has a relation with RE;Hell Gate and Once Human, Now a Parasite. The Protagonist is eccentric, to say the least, so don't expect any heroic dude. He can be a madman and a hypocrite, if that is not to your taste, then this isn't a story for you.
8 175Two And A Half Deadmen
Silver-Spruce is a very strange and very haunted town. Ghosts inhabit its buildings and walk its streets. Some of them friendly and sane. Some of them not so much. Alder helps ghosts. Helps them fulfill their last requests so they can move on to whatever comes next. Sometimes the ghosts aren't so friendly and have to be moved on by force. Alder does that as well. And he's gotten rather good at it too. After a particularly rough exorcism, he finds himself following a strange ghost to a local tourist attraction. And while Alder never means to find himself caught up in chaos, monsters, magic, and mayhem always seem to have a way of finding him. You want more specifics for what you're reading? Here you go: This is Urban-fantasy but a little bit of a different spin. Often the protagonists in such stories tend to be the bigger fish in their world, or at least far from small fry. Be they legendary boogie men or badass wizards (which is in no way a bad thing, I love a lot of those stories.) But I thought it would be fun to have a protagonist who's far closer to the bottom end of the scale. He has some magic, and it's potent in its own way. But he isn't the big dog or a fighting machine. Outside of his bubble of influence, our protagonist is essentially a normal human as far as powers are concerned. And while you should be warned that this story will get dark in some places it's (hopefully) balanced out by humor and the lighter stuff. I'm not sure how to end this synopsis section so I'll just say bye. Bye!
8 109Rise of the Keeper
A regular boring day is turned upside down by powers beyond Joshua Hale's perception. He's found himself in the possession of a strange crystal and now monsters are being thrown at him. He will have to figure out this strange new world of stats and skills quickly if he wants to adapt to survive. On the way he will make some interesting friends and might just rise to become someone that can take on these challenges forced upon him. This fiction is a fun pet project I've always wanted to try.(I'll try to mark the explicit chapters.) A massive shout out and thanks to my pal Silberfrost for making the amazing cover art! Chapter updates should be on Sundays at 9pm AST
