Imagine, having a life where you could stand on stage with your band all around you jammin' on their instruments, and you're up there singing your heart out, and the crowd is cheering you on and screamin' your name. That's the life Miku Hatsune had.

Before she, y'know, became a failure.

The echoes of pounding feet rang in everyone's ear at the train station, all thanks to our little idol here, who was yet again late for practice. They're gonna get all upset again. I dunno why, though. It's the same old shit that always happens. She assumed to herself, sprinting now. Miku was starting to get annoyed with all the people whom she saw out of the corner of her eye that were staring at her, or making rude comments. It was disrespectful.

...Not like she wouldn't do the same thing if someone else were in the position she was in.

She stopped every so often to watch her train to see if it had departed yet. Luckily for her, it hadn't so she just kept on running. But, unfortunately, running as fast as you could while carrying a heavy guitar case really tires you out. So Miku confided her trust in a bench. She set her guitar case down and plopped onto the bench, gasping for breath. The teenager reached into her pocket and pulled out whatever was in it: an expired shoulder massage coupon and a dime. Miku then groaned and realized that she didn't even have enough money to pay for a train ticket, which was five cents more than what she had. So she got up, grabbed her guitar case, and went around and asked people if they had a nickel that she could 'borrow'. Surprisingly, one kind soul actually did give her one. So Miku threw away the coupon and stood in a line consisting of two people in order to buy her ticket. When she finally bought one, she ran to her train with it in her hand, flailing it around. Unfortunately, when she finally reached it, the doors were already closed, and the guy who took tickets had his hands behind his back with an innocent look on his face. But Miku was far from happy. "No! Let me on this train! I have a ticket!" She yelled in the ticket taker's face.

"Sorry, miss, but you just missed it. The next train to the Hokkaido Station will arrive in a few minutes."

"No! C'mon, dude, I just missed it by a second! I need to get there now!"

"There's nothing I can do about it, miss."

So Miku glared at him and walked away screaming.

When Miku finally did arrive at practice, she met her band while they were in the middle of a song. Len Kagamine, the lead guitarist besides Miku, stopped playing immediately and was the first one to yell at her. "Dude, Miku! You're late again!" Rin Kagamine, the lead drummer and Len's sister, also stopped playing.

"What's your excuse this time?" She demanded, giving her a look. Teto Kasane, who played the bass and occasionally the harmonica, stopped playing too, but she didn't say anything.

"I didn't have enough money to pay for my train ticket, and when I finally did get it, I missed it, so I had to wait for the next one." Miku replied, shrugging. "I don't see why it's a big deal. Aren't you guys used to it by now?"

"That's just the thing, Miku. You've been late too many times before, and if you haven't noticed, it's kind of getting on our nerves." Rin informed her, getting up and confronting her.

"Maybe if you just take it easy once in a while and plan things out," Teto began, setting down her bass and walking up to join them. "you won't be late anymore." Maybe it would work for anybody else, but Miku has problems focusing on things.

"Sure... yeah, okay." Miku shrugged and unpacked her guitar. "I see you got the microphone all set up, so why don't we get to jammin' already?" She walked up behind the microphone and tapped it to see if it was on. Len wasn't sure if he was up to it anymore, but he put his guitar strap over his shoulder and sighed.

After practice, Miku got a ride home from the subway train and walked into her apartment. It was rather messy, but it didn't bother her. She walked into her room and set her guitar against the wall, then proceeded to look through her dresser drawers to look for pajamas to wear. She didn't have anything clean to wear, so the Hatsune just took everything off and set it on the floor. Miku waddled out of her room and into the kitchen to see if there was anything edible that she could eat for dinner. She opened her fridge and made a face, taking out a single onion. Miku threw it back into the fridge and slammed the door shut, and just decided to go to bed. So she turned off the light and laid on the couch, curling up into a ball. But sadly, she lived by a construction site. So even if she was close to falling asleep, she would be awaken by the sounds of honking noises, whirrs, and every other sound you hear at an active construction site. Miku frowned and covered her ears, and muttered to herself,

"There's no possible way that I can take it easy in this mess."
