Here's a new story while I work on 'The assassin & the prince'. Sorry, I'll update soon. I've been reading too many fanfics and felt a need to do this. Please enjoy and review. This was made on a whim, so it's pretty bad, I guess...

"It's done." Those were the first words the girl heard when she woke up. She opened her eyes. Two figures stood in front of her, one dressed in a white labcoat, the other wearing a cloak over his regal clothing.

"This is her?" the man in the cloak said, looking at the girl. His hood was pulled over his head and it was too dark for her to make out his features, yet she gave a small shudder. There was ice in his voice. "Her name?"

"R-rin, sire," the man in the labcoat answered. "Kagamine Rin." With that last sentence ringing in her ears, Kagamine Rin woke up.

Rin rubbed her eyes, trying to get the sleep out of them. "Weird dream," she muttered to herself. It had been extremely vivid, for a dream. Rin could still feel the cold stone floor she had sat on, the unfamiliar scents in the air, the fear she felt at the man in the cloak...

The blonde shook her head and pressed her cheeks until she looked like a fish. It was an old trick her mother taught her to scare away nightmares. Feeling better, she checked her clock and screamed. It was 7:20. Miku would be here in 15 minutes.

"Lunch is octopus sausages and orange pudding, miss Rin," her personal maid, Miki informed her as her mistress hurried down the grand staircase.

"Thanks, Miki!" Rin beamed and grabbed the backpack she was holding. The redhead sighed. "Breakfast is in the limo!" "Thanks! See you later!" she called out before slamming the door.

"You're late," Miku informed her when she entered the car and handed her a marmalade sandwich in a plastic baggy. "Sorry, sorry. Stupid alarm didn't go off." "I bet you used the regular tune, right?" Rin stuck out her tongue and began eating. "I'm a heavy sleeper, so what?" Her best friend poked her cheek. "You won't wake up with that attitude." "Yeah, yeah."

"I heard we have a new student today." "Really?" Miku nodded. "Apparently his name's Shion Len. Wonder how he'll turn out." "Uh-huh."

Shion Len, that name didn't sound right. Like there should be something else there. Kagamine, for instance. Rin shook the thought out of her head. Was she crushing on him already? Just pathetic.

"Are your parents still out of town, Rin-chan?" The teal-haired girl's voice broke her train of thought.

Rin nodded. "You wanna sleep over?" "N-no, it's fine. I have Miki, after all..." Miku squeezed her hand. Rin's parents had been busy lately, what with their business flourishing and all. It was a little lonely for their daughter, who was used to having them around.

"I wish it'd be like the old days," she sighed wistfully. "I mean, without all the debts and nearly being homeless and those damn debt-collectors. I'm glad we have the mansion and I don't have to transfer, but..." "It'll be OK." Rin looked up.

"You promise?" Miku took Rin's pinky in her own, just as they had done long ago. "I promise."

"Ah, we're here!" Rin suddenly realized. They slung their backpacks on. "I'll be picking you at 4:30, Miss Rin." "OK!" she answered the driver before catching up with Miku. The driver smiled.

"I'm glad she's OK," he thought to himself and drove off, nearly crashing into a blonde-haired boy with his hair tied into a small ponytail.

Thank you for reading. I hope to update this soon.
