Chapter One
~L~
When the day starts treacherous, it usually ends the same way. Yes. Rin "gently nudged" me off my bed this morning.
"Kagamine!" she barked hastily.
The feeling of the cold, tile floor seeped into my bare skin. This cause my eyes to flutter open to catch glimpse of two, blurry Rins. They shook their heads. "Today!"
I suddenly remembered! Master wanted to meet with us at noon. Noboday knew what for, but seeing it was 11:30, I was screwed.
As the two Rins narrowed into one, I jumped onto my feet with my ninja powers! I stumbled to my drawer and pulled out my favourite outfit.
I, Kagamine Len, was about to have my life changed.
"Len-kun! I'm leaving!" I could also hear the jingling of keys.
"I'm... almost... Done!" I yelled in return, struggling to pull up my shorts. Made sense, seeing I was already wearing my shoes.
I raced to the front door. Rin was wearing a pink top and blue shorts.
"Oh, how original!" she snarled sarcastically, signalling me out the door.
As Rin locked up our apartment, I made my way to a small, blue car. Oh, joy. Luka-chan is driving us. What could make the day better?
Somehow, Rin had already slid herself into the passenger seat. A few greeting were exchanged as I furiously slammed the back door closed.
"SEATBELTS!" Luka screeched.
Rin-sama being the perfect, little girl had already sat fastened to her seat. While I, on the other hand, was yet to touch the leather band. Let's see what happens the day she's strapped in and the car explodes or something.
"Whatever," Luka replied to herself.
As we drove off, the four windows had gently glided open. While the girls were deep in silence, I slipped some pocky into my mouth. Rin quickly turned around and swatted it out the window.
"No!"
"B-but! my pocky!?"
hmph.
We soon arrived to a genuinely blank building. When we entered the room, all of the laughter stopped, leaving Gumi snorting to herself.
Among the crowd, I saw Neru, Miku, Kaito, Gumi (obviously,) Meiko, Gakupo, and Haku. A brightly coloured crowd indeed. Then I saw Master with his *censored* eyes.
When we sat down -and Gumi quieted her laughter- Master began to speak.
"We are gathered here today for an announcement-"
"No joke," Neru sighed.
"Well, we've been losing viewers. This is bec-"
"It's all Teto's fault!" Neru interrupted again.
That's when Meiko picked up her phone and dropped it in her glass of water. Just, straight, dropped it into her glass of water.
"This is due to parents not approving of the Rin and Len, or twincest, ship... (who even thought of that name anyway?)"
As he continued, I tried to swallow the lump in my throat. Once. Twice. Useless.
"-Long story short, Len has a new assigned love interest and we have a new vocaloid."
Everyone was shocked. Even Master's usually *censored* voice quivered. Neru jokingly punched my arm, followed by me rubbing away the pain.
"At precisely 3 o' clock, I want a small welcoming party to meet her at Fukigawa Studio. You hear that, Len?"
Gumi and Luka giggled, as Neru hit me a second time. Meiko stuck her hand in the glass of water and broke the flip-phone in half... and just dropped it right back in there. Stop laughing! That really hurts, you know!
"Come on! You were late too!"
In the meantime, we grouped Meiko-nee, Rin-sama, Luka-chan and myself to pick her up.
Why would she be at Fugikawa anyways? The newbies are usually in editing.
That question plagued my mind the next two hours. I was so deep in thought, I hardly noticed when Neru bitch-slapped me upside the head. Haku then laughed... with a passion.
When it was time, we drove in Luka-chan's car again. Everything was normal until Rin... started... singing...
"CAAAAAR~POOOOOOL~IIIIIIIIIING~~~"
"shut up"
"CAAAAAR~POOOOOL~IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING~~~~~~~~"
"please just shut up"
"CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR~POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL~IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
"DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!?"
^.^
Weeeell, unlike the last building, this one had a bluey-green colour painted on it.
When we were evacuating the car, I was startled to see Gumi leap triumphantly out of the trunk.
"What?" she questioned as she dusted off her skirt. "(i could've died in there)"
Inside, there were many humans in a dark room. There was plethora of cameras and large lights. The humans were running wround in a crazed fashion. Everything was the same... except for one fraction of a corner which shone white. There posed the most beautiful girl. Her hair was the most interesting thing I'd ever seen. It was dull, so much that it looked grey. But when the light hit it, it was the same colour as the building.
I bravely faught off a nosebleed as she did a final pose. Her legs apart, she placed one hand on her hip, another in a peace sign, and winked.
Gorgeous.
"Hey!" Gumi squeaked, exposing us.
The girl searched the room until her eyes met us. She waved in reply.
I have no idea what is wrong with Gumi. I mean, she's usually so... sooo... so serious, but she's acting so alive and happy and... her age.
"One more!" a photographer barked.
Finally, the girl stood straight and fell into a split. As she leaned back, I couldn't take it anymore.
I sneezed. Standing behind Gumi, blood shot behind her shoulder. I attempted to rub it away, but she turned to me.
"What-are-you-doing?"
"I, uh," *sniff sniff* "-er, am just so happy you decided to come along!" I hugged her from behind, avoiding the wet spot.
"Okay, I just-"
"And we're done!"
That being said, the girl scurried towards us.
Not knowing who to greet first, she blurted out the first words she thought.
"Kon'nichiwa, Kagamine Len-niisama! Watashi wa Basakiro Daro!"
I winced at the painful onslaught of very familiar words.
It was a dumb thing to spit out, but-
"Er, english?"
