First time I made a real fanfiction. Dunno how well this'll turn out compared to Dueling Fate, but I'll just roll with it and see where the flow takes this. Could end up as an incomplete series, but I'll try to keep writing this since I've got writers block for Dueling Fate... This is gonna be trash...
From Zero to Hero
Prologue
For years, Yui endured his painful school life. Every day felt like hell. At school, the bullying never stopped. Picked on by nearly half the students there. He only found comfort in the virtual world of video games, the deepness of his bass guitar, and the rush of Tokyo Drift. That wasn't enough though, as he was still missing the one feeling that made a person whole... Atleast, not until the fateful day came when he was in class and the teacher announced, "Everyone, we have a new student!"
From Zero to Hero
Chapter One - The New Girl
Yui's PoV
I sat, waiting for class to begin, boredom killing me slowly. Mr. Yamato's teaching style wasn't exactly very interesting to me nor anyone else, and so I wasn't really excited for class to begin either. There was never a day, and never will be a day when this class will be interesting. Math isn't exactly my forte anyway. I only ever got by with ear buds in my ears and my music volume loud to drown out noises.
"Hey, faggot." I hear someone say, a paper ball hitting the back of my head. "Gimme your homework, I didn't do mine."
"Fuck off." I glared at them. "You should've done it yourself."
"Tch, who do you think your talking to?"
"I said, piss off."
He just looked at me for a second before finally turning and going to his seat.
That's new, normally I get spit to the face...
"Alright class..." I looked up to see Mr. Yamato entering the room with a packet of papers. "...Take your seats and put your phones away. We've got things to do. Chop Chop."
I sighed, pulling out my earbuds and stuffing them along with my phone in my pocket.
"Now before we start, I have an important announcement to make." I sat up, actually listening. It wasn't often we got any announcements. "Everyone, we have a new student!"
The classroom door opened to the sight of possibly one of the cutest girls I've ever seen. She had teal colored twintails, light blue eyes, wore a white hoodie, black miniskirt with stockings and the school issued black flats. I assumed her formal attire was under her hoodie.
"Meet Hatsune Miku. She will be your classmate for the rest of your schooling years." Mr. Yamato said.
"Hello everyone. Nice to meet you all. I hope we'll all be able to form some type of friendship and work together well." Miku said, giving a bow to the class.
I could see several guys in the room staring at her, probably thinking of lewd thoughts. The other girls were whispering among eachother.
"Alright Miku. Now, where shall you sit? Ah, theres an empty seat behind Yui over there." said, pointing at me.
A few guys glared at me as Miku skipped over in my direction.
"Hey." I said with a smile, trying to be nice.
"Hi!" She replied with a bubbly voice, setting her bag down and taking a seat.
Teh, lucky me. A cute girl is sitting behind me now.
After that settled down, class went on as usual in the same boring monotonous way. Miku and I whispered a bit about music a couple times, and that was pretty much the only interaction we had. Possible friendship? Maybe. She seems pretty nice.
When the lunch bell finally rang, I was the first one out of the classrom, heading straight for the rooftops. I'd rather not any of my "enemies" find me at this time. Thankfully, I got there with no mishaps.
I sat down, opening my bento box to begin eating. Minutes pass as I finish eating. Now, I'm just trying to enjoy my remaining time left to myself by listening to music.
"Finally, found you!" I heard a voice say, promting me to look up. Three guys stood infront of me. One being the one asking for my homework earlier.
I pulled out my earbuds, and got up.
"The hell do you want with me?" I asked.
"Since you didn't give me your fucking homework like I asked, me and my boys are gonna teach you a lesson. I got detention because I didn't get shit turned in."
Ahhh... this again. Every fucking day. EVERY GOD DAMN DAY. Can I just not have one bit of peace? Why the fuck does everyone target me for their damn problems? There isn't a single day where I don't have to deal with some type of problem like this.
"Piss off asshole. What're you gonna do? Huh? You tryin to scare me?" I said, gritting my teeth.
"Let em' have it boys!" Was all I heard before I got stuck in a three versus one fight.
Like always, it didn't exactly end so well for me, due to the fact that I'm naturally weak and can't fight for shit. The three guys left, as I laid on the roof, beaten and out of breath.
"Damn..." I said, holding up my phone.
Two cracks were visible on the screen.
"I just replaced this thing last week..."
And as always, I had to just deal with what happend to me. The discipline system of this school was a complete failure, and none of the administrators ever did their job correctly. Another one of the reasons why I don't really talk to people, making me a bit of a loner. Asking my parents for help wasn't exactly an option since... well... I'd rather not think about it.
Whatever, better get back to class now, seeing as it's nearing the end of lunch time.
Minutes Later
Aaaand we're back in class. Except, it's a different class. Music class, one of the two classes I actually find interesting.
"Oh! Hey Yui-kun!" I turned to see the new girl from earlier, Hatsune Miku. "I guess I'm your classmate in music too!"
"Guess so." I said, putting on a smile.
"So what do you play then? Or do you do vocals?" She asked, genuinly curious.
It wasn't too often I actually meet someone genuinly trying to be nice.
"Bass guitar." I replied. "Though I left it at home today. We finished up our assigned song yesterday, and so today we've got a free period."
"Oh, I see!" Miku said, smiling.
Damn... she's actually really cute...
Suddenly, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, promting me to pull it out.
"Crap..." I said, scratching the back of my head as I stared at my phone screen, after having read the message.
"What is it?" Miku asked.
"I need to meet up with some buddies of mine later tonight. Got some important stuff to do." I answered, stuffing my phone back in my pocket. "Nothing too serious though."
"Okay, cool." Miku said. "Hey, can I ask you something?"
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"Is it alright if you show me around the rest of the school later? I am new here after all. I don't really know my way around."
"Yeah, sure." I replied, actually wanting to do it. "I don't mind."
"Thanks Yui-kun!" Miku said, suddenly hugging me.
I was... well... blushing madly. That got me by surprise big time.
"Y-yeah." I stuttered.
Minutes pass as I got over Miku's hug. We we're now just having a casual chat about the most random things you could probably think of. Ranging from music from earlier, to gaming and food. I'd say by the end of the conversation you could call us friends, Sort've... I don't know.
Soon, the bell rang and school was out. Like usual, the hallways were absolute chaos. Miku and I waited a few minutes for the commotion to settle, before I showed her around the school. The "tour" was atleast thirty minutes long, as the school was actually quite massive, being three stories high and all.
"Well, thanks for the tour Yui-kun." Miku said, a grateful tone in her voice. "Want to walk home together?"
What did she just say to me? Walk home together? This is starting to sound like an anime...
"Sure, alright then." I replied. "Should we go to your place first?"
"Yeah, it's just aroud the block."
As we began our walk, Miku looked down to her feet, a bit of nervousness on her face.
"Something wrong Miku-san?" I asked.
The hell? I'm actually concerned for someone?
"Do you... Would you consider us friends?" She asked me, looking directly into my eyes.
I gave it a bit of thought before answering.
"Well, we do have a lot of interests in common. You also seem like a really nice, caring person. So I guess... we are?" I said, not really knowing what to actually say. Again, I'm pretty much a fucking loner up until now.
Miku gave a sigh of relief before saying,
"That's good to hear. To be honest, I don't really have too many friends. I was homeschooled up until today, so I haven't really met too many people."
"I see what you mean." I replied, smiling.
"Hey! Do you want to meet my family?" Miku asked, turning and walking backwards. "We're not really related by blood, but we're still family by heart."
"Sure." I replied, digging out my phone and checking the time. "I've got about two hours to kill before I meet up with my buddies."
"Cool!" Miku replied happily.
A few seconds later, Miku turned into a pathway towards what I assumed was her house.
"We're here!" She said, pulling out a key from her hoodie pocket.
Miku's PoV
"Hi everyone! I'm home!" I shouted, kicking open the front door.
"Do you do that everytime you come home?" Yui chuckled.
"Yeah, she does." Kaito said, poking his head around the livingroom corner. "Whos' your friend?"
"Oh!" I turned to Yui. "Yui-kun, this is Kaito." I turned back. "Kaito-kun, this is Yui-kun."
"Nice to meet you." Kaito said, walking towards us, holding out his hand.
"Pleasure's all mine." Yui said, giving Kaito a handshake.
"Kaito, could you do me a favour and gather everyone?" I asked. "I'd like everyone to meet
Yui-kun!"
"Sure." He nodded, turning towards the staircase leading upstairs.
"Cmon, let's go to the livingroom!" I motioned towards Yui.
Later
As everyone finally gathered around the livingroom, I introduced them to Yui, and Yui to them.
"Okay everyone, I'd like you all to meet Yui-kun. He's really friendly, so don't be afraid to ask any questions."
I turned to Yui and began introducing him to everyone.
"This is Megurine Luka." I pointed to Megurine with her awesome pink hair.
"Hey!" She said, smiling.
"Rin and Len." I pointed at the blonde twins.
"Hi." They said in unison.
"And you already met Kaito." I pointed to black-haired Kaito.
"Sup." Kaito nodded towards Yui.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you how old everyone is!" I began. "Kaito is twenty two, Megurine is twenty three, and Len and Rin are both twelve. Oh, and I'm sixteen."
After a few minutes of introductions, we all ended up playing some video games on Kaito's PC, which we hooked up to the TV. After about a half an hour or so, Yui said that he had to go, and that the two hours he had was reduced to just one.
"Hold on, wait!" I called to Yui as he was about to exit.
"Yeah?" He turned back. "What is it?"
I blushed a bit as I held out my phone towards him.
"G-go ahead and trade numbers with me." I said, looking away shyly. "It'll make it easier for us to communicate outside of school. W-we are friends now after all."
"Y-yeah..." He replied, taking my phone and pulling out his.
He tapped his phone a few times, recording my number in his contact list.
"I'll send you a message later so you get my number." Yui said, handing me back my phone. "Alright, catch you later."
"Bye!" I said, waving to him and he took off.
Well, better go do my homework now.
Yui's PoV
I quickly ran down the block and turned the corner, nearly tripping over a loose uplift in the concrete. Time was of the esscence right now.
Rather than taking a left turn going back home to my apartment like usual, I went right and turned that block towards a rental garage building. I pulled my wallet out my school bag, whipped out a key-card and slammed it into the card-reader of my garage.
I pulled out my phone, checking for any messages while the garage opened. There was only one message on my screen.
"Hurry the hell up man! We need you down by the track ASAP with the S-Fifteen. That thing is the only chance we have of winning this season of Tokyo Drift!" It read.
"K, be there in like, five mins. Was caught up in some stuff earilier, my bad." I texted back to the sender of the message, my buddy Jin.
I gave a sigh of satisfication as the garage fully opened, revealing the reason as to why I had a roof over my head and could afford anything. There infront of me was my dad's car passed down to me. A Nissan Silvia S-Fifteen in dark blue color. Fully modified for racing with it's own Rocket Bunny kit.
"Well..." I smiled. "...time to bring back out the 'devil'."
This is a piece of my life outside of school.
