Chapter 2: Let the Training Begin!

[Lilk2lu]

With the very important meeting over and the vict-uh we mean recruits gathered it is time for the training. A most serious and important training. It will be difficult, it will work these recruits more than anything they've done in their entire lives. It is important that they meet the standards of the Club. They must make their clients happy. Today is the day that they prove themselves ready.

Hikaru & Kaoru Hitachiin + Akari Kawamoto


Hikaru and Kaoru were ready. They'd approached Akari this morning and told her their idea to have her join the club. Her response, though sarcastic, had so obviously been approving of the idea. "You two really think I'd spend more time with you?" Yes, the words seemed harsh, but the twins could just tell that she was actually very happy about the idea.


No, they were right. Akari was a bit excited to join the Club. After all, she'd be setting an example, and be the first official hostess of the Host Club. Why not? Yes, the whole twins-being-part-of-the-club thing wasn't desirable, but Haruhi would be there. And she'd finally get to see the behind the scenes of the club. (She'd never gone herself, since....well, she didn't do that stuff, to put it bluntly.)


But she wasn't expecting this. Immediately at the end of the school day, the twins pounced on her. "Put this on!" they demanded, shoving some sort of dress and a...shoebox (?) at her. They pushed her all the way towards the girls' bathroom, shoving her through the door and flanking the door like guards.


"But why?!" she screamed, thoroughly confused, frustrated...many of the normal emotions associated with those boys. "Is my school uniform not enough?"


"Nope," they responded bluntly, and had she been Tamaki, she might've sat in the corner sulking. "Boss needs to be convinced that you're girly enough. The boys uniform won't cut it."


"Dammit," Akari muttered, obliging and putting the dress and shoes on. She redid her ponytail so it looked somewhat like a hairdo one of the maids might try out on her. When she finally stepped out of the bathroom, the twins' eyes widened, causing her to blush and glance away angrily. "This is all your fault." She wasn't used to being this fancy. 

Spoiler

Basically she looks like a mix between these three. She's wearing the dress and the boots (with tallish white socks) and put her hair up in that ponytail. 

"You look great, Akari!" Hikaru reassured her with a wide smile. For once, he meant it, which made Akari feel all the more embarrassed.


Kaoru added, "And see? The boots add a bit of your tomboy charm to it."


"Whatever. Just take me there already." Her blush hadn't gone away under the twins' scrutiny. Especially Hikaru's.


With identical chuckles, the twins led her to the Music Room where the Club was located. "Hey, boooooooooss, we brought Akari!" they called out to Tamaki.

[SIZE=14.666666666666666px]Tamaki had been in the room every moment he possibly could to prepare. In his opinion it was an easy training today, but also probably , the most important. It would weed out those who were too weak-willed to join the club at all. The room was just the normal seating areas with materials laid out at each one. One of the materials was a clipboard. Another was a tea set.  He was just putting the last finishing touches when the door opened behind him. [/SIZE]


[SIZE=14.6667px]“"Hey, boooooooooss, we brought Akari!"[/SIZE] The twin’s voices rung through the room. Tamaki turned and saw the twins, dressed in their usual apparel. Between them was a girl. Tamaki smiled. Tamaki’s face brightened as he smiled widely.


“ Hello Akari!!” He said. “ Welcome to the host club. We just got to wait a little while for everyone else to arrive before we can get started. “ He said with a charming smile, reciting his while rehearsed speech. He held out his hand to the newcomer.

Kaiyo had taken surprisingly little convincing.  Kiyoya had approached the young artist and outlined the proposition.  Kai had agreed almost instantly.  True, he had a bit of a crush on Kiyoya, but it was mostly because it sounded like fun.  


As they walked into the Music Room, Kiyoya gestured to Kai.  "Lady and gentlemen," he said, giving a nod to Akari, "I'd like to introduce you to  Kaiyo Shizuka."

Akari Kawamoto


"Oh, um, thank you, Tamaki-senpai," Akari muttered, shaking Tamaki's proffered hand politely. She'd heard the girls around school swooning over Tamaki, but considering she'd never actually been to the Host Club, she didn't really understand. Now she did, and while she was a teensy bit flustered, she wasn't head-over-heels for him. That honor already went to someone....


Turning to see Kyoya enter with another student, she bowed her head gracefully. "Hello, Ootori-senpai. Hi, Kaiyo-kun." She smiled at her classmate kindly. She knew about the boy, but had never really talked to him all that much.

Kyoya gave an elegant bow of his own.  "It's a pleasure, Akari-san," he said.  "I hope the twins weren't too much of a bother."


Kaiyo smiled.  "Hi, Akari-chan," he said with a friendly bow.  He saw the others gathered and bowed to them, too.  They needed no introduction, even if they had no idea who he was.  "It's nice to meet the rest of you, too."
