Another Chance Chapter 1: Prologue, a vocaloid fanfic

Another Chance

Written by: Haru-chan

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Vocaloid characters in this fan-fiction. Crypton does. Only the story is authentic.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Originally, this story is suited to be submitted in Fictionpress. You know, OCs and all. But since I'm happier with the people here.. I turned it into a FF. :) Beware of the OOCs (Really? They already have their fixed personalities? I'm not sure..)! And by the way, the first chapters were made many years ago (like, three ahaha) and editing didn't take place so, don't expect much. I promise to do better in the later chapters. ANNNDD, THIS IS A RINxLEN! Not MikuxLen!

Another Chance: Prologue

Hatsune Miku's POV

I love Len-kun very much. He's my very first bestfriend. He's always there for me, be it happiness or sadness. We're already in high school. My girlfriends are encouraging me to take the initiative and confess to him. But, I can't because I don't even know if the feeling is mutual or not.. and recently, there are rumors spreading that Kagamine Len will finally confess to the girl he likes... I don't want to spoil that!

"Miku, what's up with you? You've been spacing out lately..." Len-kun asked as we were walking home.

"Eh? Len-kun noticed?"

"Of course, we've been together for almost five years..." he paused. "If there's anything troubling you, I'm always here, alright?"

"Umm.. thank you, Len-kun." I answered with a soft voice.

"I love you, Miku." he grinned at me.

Those three words made my heart pound that I stopped walking. My lips were trembling so I had to bite them. "Don't you think you should stop saying 'I love you'?" I looked away to hide my expression. "...or else other people might misunderstand.."

He patted my head, "But I really do."

I bit my lips harder and gathered all my courage to look at him straight in the eyes. "Of course you do.. since we're best of friends, righ-?"

He pulled my left hand towards him and kissed my forehead. "I'm serious."

"Eh? I was taken by surprise.

Rain began to pour.

"Oh, damn" he held my hand tighter and ran as fast as we could.

"Ooofff.. at least you were able to go home."

"..soaking wet." I finished his sentence and we both laughed. "I can immediately change now, though."

He smiled. "So, I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Sure." I smiled back.

He waved his hand at me and slowly walked away even if it's still raining.

"I love you, Len-kun..." I whispered. I can't help it but stare at the direction to where he was going. "But I really have to conceal these overflowing feelings.."

I was about to sleep when my cellphone suddenly vibrated. "Ah! It's a message from Len-kun!" I opened it immediately. It read:

Miku, I really have to tell you something tomorrow.

Let's meet up at Tokyo Cafe at 9 AM.

I'll be waiting.

- Len Kagamine.

My heart skipped. What will Len-kun tell me? I felt my body warm up all of a sudden. I felt nervous. I think I won't be able to sleep tonight because of Len-kun's message..

THE NEXT DAY.

I blinked at the sight of sunrise. Oh, gosh, I'm too lazy to get up. I suddenly remembered today's appointment. Good thing I was able to sleep. I glanced at my watch: It's already 7: 52. I hurriedly went in the bathroom to prepare and fix myself.

"Ittekimasu!" I said as I locked the main door. As if someone would answer..

I rode the LRT. It's Saturday so naturally, there are many people in the vehicle. Fortunately, I got a vacant seat. Memories of my parents came rushing in my mind. They both died in a car accident five years ago. That's about the time I met Len-kun. If he wasn't there for me, I guess I would be dead by now..

The LRT abruptly stopped in the middle of a bridge. Woah, did someone accidentally push the emergency break button? I looked around and a suspicious man caught my attention. He was wearing a cap and sunglasses as if to hide his identity. Both of his hands were somehow shaking. Then, in less than a second, he took a gun from his pocket and yelled, "Nobody move! This vehicle is under our full control!"

Kagamine Len's POV

"Aw, man. Miku sure is late..." I whispered as I looked at my watch. It's already 10:00 AM. I opened my cellphone and tried calling her. Someone picked up. Oh damn it. It's the answering machine. I sighed and ended the call. "If she's not here in 30 minutes, I'll go to her house myself." I really want to notifyher about what I truly feel before her birthday, next next month.

I gazed at the restaurant's television to divert my attention.

"Five men were detained after the attempted LRT hold up." The girl on the news reported. "It is assumed that one of the passengers sacrificed herself for the sake of the other commuters."

Hmm. What an admirable person..

"A witness is here beside me to talk about the horrifying incident." the newscaster added.

Now the screen's focus is on the witness. "I was beside the commendable little girl.. her eyes.. focused on one of the hold-uppers.." the old lady was almost in tears. "My cellphone unexpectedly rang.. t-then the hold upper involuntarily pointed his gun towards me and ordered me not to answer the phone.. b-but.. to my panic.. I-I accidentally pressed 'answer' and the loudspeaker was on.." Now she burst into tears. "The hold upper became nervous and pulled the trigger but.. instead of hurting me... t-the girl beside me covered for me and said something like 'I'm sorry, Len-kun'.."

I choked and felt as if there's boiling water poured straight into me. Miku rides the same LRT.. I can no longer hear anything aside from my rapid heartbeat. I slowly lifted my head and tried to look on the screen. And there she was... being carried in some kind of bed. She looked really pale. I had the urge to run as fast as I could and the next thing I knew, I was sitting in the emergency room, holding her soft hands. She's terribly suffering.. I knew that this would be the last time I'll see her since the doctor had no choice but to let me in and cite her condition.

I realized I was crying when her other hand reached my cheek. Her hands seemed to have turned colder...

"L-len-kun...?" Her voice can be barely heard. "P-please don't cry.. the crying you just makes the situation worse.. those surrounding you might also feel very sad... b-but, on the other side, you should cry i-in front of me... and release all y-your pain.. because I'll be here until the end..."

I was really shocked by hearing those words and could not restrain myself from kissing her on the lips. "I love you more than you ever imagined, Miku.." I smiled at her while patting her head gently.

Miku smiled back weakly and closed her eyes. "So unfair..." She was panting.

Then suddenly, there was no motion.. no sould of puffing or anything.. She's... I let out a loud cry and hugged her very tightly for the last time.

"I want to go with mama and papa!" I cried. I have crossed the dangerous point up in the school's rooftop and was planning to jump. "I would be able to see them if I jump, right?"

I removed my shoes then lifted my arms to my sides at shoulder level. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

My left foot was already in the air when someone abruptly pulled me away from the railings. I ended up sitting on top of the individual. "What the hell were you trying to do?" It was a guy's voice.

I gasped and sat away from him. "I-" I looked at the guy who pulled me and noticed that he had greenish-blue-colored eyes. He looked really attractive with his messy blonde hair. "I.. I wanted to be with my parents..." I sobbed.

"H-hey! Don't cry!" He appeared nervous. "The crying you just makes the situation, you know! Those surrounding you might also feel sad!"

"But, I-" I was surprised that he hugged me all of a sudden.

He patted my head. "But on the other side, you should cry in front of me and release all your pain, because I'll be here until the end."

I hugged him back and cried harder.

"I'm Kagamine Len."

I sniffed. "Hatsune Miku."

A/N2: So? Is it that bad that I shouldn't anymore post the next chapter? Tell meeeeee. ;_;
