***I'm in the mood for writing something futuristic-ish. So I'll abandon my other fic The Riddler for a few days. This will be a short fic, since it's only a prologue. There'll be around, 5 chapters maybe? Who knows. ***


File A : Program

Utopia was the name of the town I lived in. To be 'born' in the most modern country in the world, was considered as 'lucky'. Outside Utopia, was a green country filled with colorful flowers, pure water from a source called 'spring' and even creatures unknown to me. I knew few of those creatures, from the data inside me; there was a creature that had 4 legs called 'paws'. They crawl everywhere they go, those creatures couldn't stand like normal humans. In my data base they're called 'dogs'. There were other strange creatures outside Utopia, and sometimes I wonder when I could see those bizarre creatures and those strange landscapes.

It sounds interesting, and maybe someday I could leave Utopia and see the outside. However I can't. It's not that Idon'twant to, Ican'tleave. If I'm far from the server, I can't survive. I envy those humans that could leave and return to Utopia. Luckily Putin-sama had installed an anti virus for me so those bad 'feelings' would go away. He was one of the reasons that I couldn't leave Utopia. Putin-sama was my creator. At first I was just mere software inside a computer, but then he made me a body so I could move and walk like humans. Putin-sama installed many nice things inside me, and he took care of me so well, I couldn't leave him alone in Utopia. I wondered if one day, I and Putin-sama could leave Utopia together.

However that was impossible. I have work to do in Utopia, and those people said I'm very important. Those people sent me to do one thing, collect data. There were 2 companies in Utopia, Crypton where I and Putin-sama belong, and our 'rival' was F. Media. Those people sent me to F. Media and I was told to get their data. Those people called me a 'hacker' and that my role was really important for the 'development'. Putin-sama was in charge of the development, I once asked to Putin-sama what was the 'development' but he didn't answer, he avoided my question. That made him uncomfortable, so I never asked what development was to Putin-sama ever again.

After all, Putin-sama is always there with me, every time I feel lonely because of 'what I am' he'd comfort me. He promised that he'd invent someone like me, he called it Project 03. Putin-sama worked long and hard for Project 03. Her name would be Megurine Luka, and even though I was born first, Putin-sama said her design would look older than me. Whatever her design is, I promise that I'd get along with her, since Putin-sama worked so hard for it.


I knocked on Putin-sama's door and I waited for him to answer 'come in' like he usually does. Putin-sama didn't answer, so I went inside without his approval. Putin-sama called me earlier, and I wondered what he needed me for. It might be something important; he said it was a 'surprise'. Hopefully it's a good surprise.

As usual, Putin-sama was on his desk, 2 of his 3 computers were on, and it looked like he hadn't taken his morning shower yet.

"Is there something you need me to do?" I asked. Putin-sama finished his coffee and answered my question with a bright smile.

"I told you I have a surprise, sit down and attach yourself to the cables, Rin." I sat down to the metal chair, and opened the cover of my yellow headphones. Usually when Putin-sama told me to attach myself to the cables that meant I need to hack, or he needs to install something inside me.

"I know I should be working in Project 03, but honestly I'm more interested in this program." Putin-sama worked in his computer and I waited for the setup to start the installation. "My great grandfather once did this… Unfortunately it's a failure… I've upgraded it, so I think it'd work. Tell me Rin, how many 'feelings' are installed inside your body?" The installation was in progress, but I could still answer his question.

"I have 6. In the folder 'feelings' I have : Happiness, sadness, anger, envy, and spirit / will." From those 6 programs, it could produce more programs. Happiness is linked to amazement, and spirit / will are linked to courage. The electrons inside of me formed those 'feelings' without Putin-sama installing them.

"Then, you're going to have 7 now. This is probably one of the most important file inside you. It's a large file, and the main problem is you might over load your system. So, tell me if you want to uninstall it, okay?" I could feel my head heavier than before, but I could handle it. That program was something Putin-sama made for me. No matter how useless that program or how troublesome that program was I would never ask for him to uninstall it.

"This program is called 'love' and will only activate at certain times. I can't activate it, with the help of 'spirit / will' it will activate." In my dictionary, there was a definition of 'love', but I couldn't comprehend it.

"0 files failed extracting. Installation complete. Can I disconnect the cables, now?" Putin-sama nodded, so I carefully disconnect those cables from my headphones.

"Okay, Rin. I think it's about time for you to test that new program." He grabbed a large brown coat and handed it to me. "It's snowing beautifully outside. You should go out to town and enjoy yourself." Enjoy was the synonym of 'happy' so I must use the program 'happy' while I'm out.

"At what time should I be back?" I needed more details in order to do the task he gave me.

"Um… Come back anytime you want… Just come back before dark." Before dark, around dusk, maybe? I took note that I have to be back by dusk, so I needed to spend 9 hours outside.


Every building I saw stood tall and the people were as busy as usual; running from one place to another with their cars. Although some cars could fly, it was against the law to do so. In this discipline town, no one ever broke the law. From the E-Books Putin-sama had install for me, I could see so many difference. Utopia 255 years ago was filled with 'flightless' cars and a traditional motor-cycle that had no engine called 'bicycles'. 255 years ago leaves from trees could be sighted on the streets, but not here. No dirt could be spotted by the humans' eyes in the streets. Everything in there was crystal clear, literally. Some of the buildings were made of sturdy glass.

I knew one place that was similar to what Utopia was 255 years ago. The largest tree in Utopia was there. It'd be covered with snow, and I think it'd look… beautiful. I tried to merge 2 pictures, snow and trees. I knew my editing software needed an upgrade, Putin-sama said humans had things called 'imagination' and that editing software was made for me to 'imagine'. I wanted to know how that tree looked like… I was curious. I wasn't far from that large tree, so I thought, why not? I had 9 hours left before dusk.

I walked slowly towards the park while I observed the surrounding of town. Many humans walked pass by me, sometimes it feels… sad, that I was the only android in Utopia, in the world. I was Project 02, and so I thought maybe, there was a Project 01? Putin-sama never told me about that project. That made me more… anxious for Project 03, Megurine Luka. It'd be less… lonely.

That tree was as magnificent as usual, and I was right. My editing software really needed an upgrade, but I didn't want to trouble Putin-sama more than this, he was too busy doing Project 03. Then I remembered the task Putin-sama gave me, I needed to 'enjoy' myself. I had no idea how to 'enjoy' myself. Maybe I should just… sing? There were many songs installed inside of me, although I never got the chance to sing all of them. I picked a random song in the data base, and the song I chose was Paradise of Light and Shadow.

"I pray to protect the bright world, where everyone can smile. A song of hope of light to tomorrow…"

"I fight to put an end, because I saw you crying alone. A song of despair of shadow to bury the past." Somebody answered my song. When I turned around, I saw a boy, who had the same blue eyes and blonde hair like me. It was hard to tell since his body was completely covered with his coat, scarf, gloves, and his hat.

"Do you know… the song?" I wondered what that human was doing in that park. According to the data I had in the data base, children and teenagers should be in school by now. His age was approximately… 14, like my appearance.

"No, I don't. I just… sang the opposite of what you sang." I thought about it, his lyrics and mine was exact opposite. "Don't you feel cold walking around with just a coat?" That boy asked. I wasn't sure what 'cold' was, but Putin-sama told me once that metal + cold don't go well together.

"I feel… fine." Did he think I was human like him? Did I sound… 'Robotic'? I wondered hard, but then a thought struck to me, why did I care? Small problems like those should be deleted by the antivirus by now, was it broken because of that program called 'love'?

"Nice headphones… Where did you buy them?" I didn't buy them, even though those speakers could be taken on and off, the speakers I wore were already a 'set' with this body.

"It was a gift." I didn't lie, it was true. It was a gift from Putin-sama to me.

"I wish I have those headphones… Are you listening to music right now?" For humans headphones were usually used to listen to music or to communicate with each other. However for me, speakers were used for installing / uninstalling things inside me. It could also be used to communicate, but I had no one to communicate to.

"No, I'm not listening to music right now." I answered plainly. He gave a strange look at me, and I questioned why he gave that look to me.

"Then… Why are you wearing it?" I could say I was an android, but I was afraid that he'd leave or lose interest if I answered that. Again, I was surprised why the antivirus wasn't working. Why won't these thoughts be deleted? Why did I care about what he thought of me?

"I'm wearing it because…" I tried to look for options, and I was sure that my system was about to over load any minute, no suggestions worked for me.

"Oh, I know… You're wearing it for style? I admit the headphones look good on you, it's as if those headphones were made for you." That boy added a smile, for a moment I didn't know how to react. Before I could do so, that boy looked at the clock in that park. "Sorry, but I should go now… I'm supposed to buy some groceries, and if I'm not back in an hour, my father would kill me." His father would kill him if he didn't do the task? That sounded… horrible.

"Um… It's a joke." He probably saw the worried look on my face. I felt… stupid that I took it seriously. I couldn't help myself, I was made to take things seriously. "Anyway, I should be going now. It's been nice talking to you." That boy left before I could even respond further. He ran as fast as he could, he was probably heading to the market near here.

Every day I save my memory in a special folder. Everyday a video would be savejust before I shut down at night. It was far from night time; I saved that memory and cut the parts. The seconds I spent with that boy, the duration was less than 3 minutes. I saved it to a special folder inside of me, a hidden file. No one could see it, not even Putin-sama.

I questioned myself why I did those things, was there a reason? Was it because of that new program? For some reason… I felt tired. I charged myself this morning, but the electricity flowing through my cables inside was rushing faster than usual. Many thoughts were inside my head, useless .txt files popped up in my head with the words saying.

'I want to sing with that boy again'

'What's his name?'

'Will we meet again?'

'His voice was kind and beautiful.'

No matter how hard I could, I couldn't delete those files from my head. My system couldn't hold all those files (thoughts) at once. I had no choice but to shut down.

'System overload – force shut down –t –s 10.'


Note :

Putin is a real man. For those who don't know who Putin is, I copy-paste this from wikipedia.

Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin served as the second President of the Russian Federation and is the current Prime Minister of Russia, as well as chairman of United Russia and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Union of Russia and Belarus.

How is Putin related to the song? Honestly, I don't know. This is the summary of the song made by Putin-P (It's divided into 4 parts). This fic is based on Kokoro / Kiseki and Putin-P series.

Rin is an agent from Russia and worked under Putin, she's loyal to him and would do anything for him. Putin ordered Rin to kill Ronald McDonald for a reason unknown. I'm not joking, in the PV there really was Ronald McDonald. You know, McDonald chicken? Rin tried to kill Ronald but she failed many times.

Rin had a dog, his name was Len. It was named after Rin's brother Len. The dog found human Len talking with Ronald McDonald, human Len was actually an ally of Ronald. Len found the dog listening to their conversation, and so Len shot the dog with his gun.

After Rin finally killed Ronald McDonald, she figured out that Len was an enemy, and she was upset that her brother killed her dog. Rin killed Len. She was stressed, and so Rin suicide. After that, Rin and the dog (Len) were reborn as Vocaloids.

In this fic I'm not using the real Putin, in here Putin is also a Vocaloid character, I'll give guesses on which Vocaloid character he is along the way.

Since this is a remix with Kokoro x Kiseki, I changed it a bit. And now for some other notes :

-force shut down -t -s10. A friend of mine taught me how to make a small virus, and that's how you do it. You write -t -s10 in a notepad, and when somebody click it, your computer will be shut down.

.txt is for notepad, we humans have thoughts, androids have 'files'.
