A/N: Hi! This is my second story. I'm going to try to write at least five chapters (yah!). So this first part of the story is based on the song "Snow White and Blossom Red" by Miku and Luka. Enjoy!
I don't own Vocaloid and some of the plot is from the song "Snow White and Blossom Red".
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful maiden by the name of Luka Megurine. She had long silky hair, the color of cherry blossoms. Her eyes were a deep sea blue. Her figure was envied by every woman within a hundred miles.
Her mother had a magic mirror that would tell her she was the fairest in the land. Then one day, it said that her daughter was the fairest instead of her. Angered, Luka's mother sent a hunter out to kill Luka. When that didn't work, her mother went and personally poisoned her daughter. When Luka woke up after being kissed by her prince, her mother was chased off the edge of a cliff and the despised lady was killed.
This is the story of her daughter.
Luka married the prince, and they had a child. They named her Miku. They lived happily for years, until Miku's seventh birthday.
Luka had kept the magic mirror. Throughout the years, Luka had become vain and asked the mirror every now and then who was the fairest of the land. The mirror always answered with, "You, my dear Luka."
However, on Miku's seventh birthday the mirror answered differently.
"The fairest one in this land isn't you anymore, my dear Luka. It is your daughter, sweet little Miku."
Enraged, Luka took away all of Miku's dresses and gowns and gave her rags to wear. She suddenly became cold towards her daughter.
She has the same shining white skin and crimson red cheeks as me. She even has the same deep, alluring hair. What makes her better than me? Luka fumed. I thought my beautiful face would be known throughout the world forever!
For Miku's tenth birthday, they invited the seven dwarves to the party. Luka invited them so they could fawn over her beauty. Instead, all the talked about was Miku. Again, Luka was furious.
"This is your entire fault!" she screamed at her husband. "Your genes made her more beautiful than me!" Convinced of this, she found a witch and asked for a beauty potion. The witch brought it out, but said that Luka must pay a price. Not hesitating, Luka offered her husband's life. The witch said it was an appropriate price.
That night, Luka went home and killed her husband in his sleep. The same prince that had revived her from her endless sleep.
Then she went back to the witch and got the potion. She greedily drank the potion in one gulp.
For three years, Luka remained as beautiful as she was when she was young. Still, when asked, the mirror always said Miku was the fairest. Then Luka's beauty started to fade again. Throughout that time, Miku continued to grow more and more beautiful.
Again, Luka went to the witch. She asked for another beauty potion, but the witch refused to give her one. Instead, she told Luka another way to gain beauty.
"Steal the beauty and youth from others. Here's what you do. Get a pint of a maiden's blood. Then take it and infuse it with a drop of your own. At midnight, drink the blood and you'll be beautiful as ever the next day." the witch whispered the instructions in Luka's ear.
Luka went back home. That night, Luka broke into the house of the innkeeper. He had a pretty daughter who liked to eat carrots. She had light green hair that always reminded Luka of Miku. She got the pint of blood and downed it at midnight. Miku was aware of what her mother was doing, and she kept growing prettier.
By now, Miku was 16 years old. All the villagers called her a 'beautiful young goddess'. Her emerald green hair and turquoise blue eyes attracted flocks of men. Her shining white skin and crimson red cheeks surpassed that of her mother's. The villagers gave her a nickname: Blossom Red.
Luka, meanwhile, kept going around, stealing people's beauty and youth. Nevertheless, the mirror always said the Miku was the fairest of the land.
"If magic ruled this world, I would use that power and make myself the most beautiful of this land." Luka proclaimed one day.
Tired of her mother's rants, Miku spoke up. "Don't you realize that beauty isn't all about your appearance? Your hatred and envy are the causes of why you're losing your appeal."
Infuriated by her daughter's comment, Luka cut Miku's eyes out of their sockets. "You'll never be beautiful anymore," she cackled, holding the two pearly orbs in her hands.
"If you're satisfied with this, then I'll accept this punishment." Miku continued. "But you won't ever hear your beauty from the magic mirror anymore."
"Oh yeah? Watch me!" Luka screamed. She grabbed the mirror and hung it on the wall in front of her.
"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the fairest of us all? You'll answer me now, right? The most beautiful person in this land is me, Snow White!" Luka screeched.
Instead of answering, the mirror reflected the most gruesome creature ever on the surface. It had Luka's pink hair, but it was filled with dirt and messy, the cotton candy pink turned brown and limp. The face was filled with sags and wrinkles. The creature's eyes bugged out, her lips were puckered, her nose long and droopy. The face color was a dull gray pallor, the rosiness of Luka's usually crimson cheeks gone. Her skin was in the horrible condition. The creature in the mirror was hardly recognizable, but it strangely resembled Luka. Because it was Luka inner appearance, disgraced by hatred and envy.
Then the magic mirror broke, shards flying everywhere. One shard lodged itself into Luka's throat, killing her. In the shard, a rotten, dead leaf was reflected.
A/N: So that's it for this part of the "cycle". Again, i write my fanfictions very close to the plot of the songs so you can find many similarities here. Thanks for reading!
