Megurine Luka sighed as she sat down in her seat for her first class of the day: math. Luka hated math not only because of her inability to comprehend mathematical equations, also because that whenever she saw a parabola and or a wave function, she just want to pass out. To make matters worse, her teacher, Mr. Yamamoto, was considered to be the most boring teacher in the whole school, if not the whole board. Luka wished dearly that one day, everything that related to mathematics would just disappear and never come back.

Luka sighed again as she saw the learning targets of the day on the board. "Great, another trigonometry lesson." she muttered to herself. To be honest, Luka was hoping that Mr. Yamamoto would be sick because today had been really bad for her (She just broke her phone by dropping it in the tub) and the last thing she needed was a boring lecture. Unfortunately, the teacher was healthy and he walked in just like every other day.

"Before we start with our lesson, I want to introduce you all to a new student." Mr. Yamamoto said in his usual boring voice, "She just moved here to Vocaloville two days ago and she doesn't know anybody yet, please take care of her." He then nodded to the door and signaled the new student to come in.

Luka didn't even bother to look up, she doesn't care about the new student and she was very tired, until she heard the new student's voice. "Hello, my name is Hatsune Miku, but you can just call me Miku. Please take care of me." The voice was shy, high-pitched, yet it sounded cute and angelic. Luka raised her eyes and she was instantly caught by the extremely adorable cute girl that stood in front of the class. The said girl looked a little younger than Luka, and she had beautiful teal hair that had been done into two identical ponytails and it flew down below the girl's waist. Her eyes were the same color as her hair and they were big and very beautiful. However, her height was a little below average, but that little flaw was nothing compared to how adorable the girl was.

"Here are your textbooks and handouts," Mr. Yamamoto said while he gave Miku a big pile of books and papers. "Please go and sit there." He added as he pointed to a seat beside Luka. Miku smiled to the teacher, walked toward her seat and sat down beside Luka before Mr. Yamamoto started with the trigonometry lesson.

"Now, for your convenience, Sine squared Theta plus Cosine squared Theta equals one..." he lectured in his usual voice, but Luka wasn't paying any attention; she was too focused on the girl beside her. She peeked over and was instantly caught by her cute features once again. "Everything about the girl is just perfect," Luka thought, and she spent the whole class looking at her. Surprisingly, today's class was not boring at all, in fact, Luka was actually happy to be there.

When math was done, she continued with her day and attended her other classes. After another eight hours of hellish boredom, the bell finally rung and school was finally over. Normally, Luka would get her stuff and rush home, but today, she has choir after school. Choir on every Tuesday was the only aspect of school that she actually looked forward to, for she loved singing and everyone in the club had complimented her for her amazing voice. Choir begins twenty minutes after school, which means that Luka will have time to take a break from the academics and prepare herself. After her twenty minutes break, when the school was deserted, Luka walked through the empty hallway to the choir room, thinking about the musical adventure that awaits her, but she was suddenly stopped when she heard a small whimper coming from the janitor's closet as she passed it.

Luka stopped and listened before she started to walk again. Suddenly, the whimper grew louder and it turned into a sob, someone was crying! Luka hated to see people in distress, she stopped again, pushed the door open and barged in.

Hatsune Miku, the new girl, was sitting on the ground. Her arms was hugging her legs and her face was buried between her arms. The whimpers and sobs that Luka just heard were produced by the poor girl on the ground. The pitiful scene touched Luka's heart and she moved forward and patted on the small girl's shoulder. She looked up, her face was red from crying and her eyes were still watery.

"Go away, are you here to bully me too?" Miku asked with a weak voice.

Luka sat down beside her and wrapped her arms around the frail girl's body. She felt that Miku needed a good hug. "Of course not, Miku, I'll never do that to you, please tell me what happened." Luka asked tenderly, not wanting to sound too blunt and scare the poor girl.

Upon hearing these words, Miku resumed crying, this time in Luka's shoulders. Luka hugged the small girl tighter and she started to rub comforting circles on the back of her head. "It's okay, Miku, I am here now, take your time." She said sweetly while trying to calm the girl down.

"*sob* I-I was going to my last class, then I accidentally bumped into this blonde girl-I think her name is Lily-and she started to yell at me. *sob* I tried to apologize, b-but she pushed me on the ground and ..." Miku sobbed, her tiny body was shaking. "and she called me a blind and ugly bi*ch and said that I am better off... dead... *sob* All the other people... all they did was laughing, I thought they won't be the same. .. It was so... Humiliating... "

"That Lily again..." Luka muttered under her breath. Lily was a pretty girl, but her personality and actions does not suit her looks at all. She was incredibly mean and was an evil bully. Lily was known to pick on small and weak people and constantly harass them. "She pushed you? Are you hurt?" Luka asked the small girl, and was happy to see her head shaking. "Shhh... Is okay, Miku, don't get upset over what she had said, they are all nonsense, none of them are true." Luka then reassured the petite girl as she handed the small girl a tissue from her bag.

"But it was so frightening... I-I can still see her face when she cursed at me.. And all t-the other people..." Miku whimpered, clearly Lily's actions had left a scar in her mind. Luka suddenly got very angry, she couldn't believe that Lily would pushed down a new student, let alone a cute little girl. She suddenly stood up and pulled Miku up as well.

"Let's go and find the principal." Luka growled. She had completely forgot about choir, all she wanted to do now was to protect the small girl and mend her scars. "I can't believe she pushed you to the ground and said all that." However, just as Luka was walking outside, she suddenly felt that Miku's little hand was pulling her back.

"N-no, i-if she know that I told on her, she would certainly be mad... I-I'm scared what she'll do to me... Please, just let me deal with this... alone..." Miku said, but Luka grabbed her hand tightly.

"No! You can't just stay away from all this, Miku! If you tolerate Lily, she would never learn and keeps on bullying you!" Luka yelled, she can't stand the thought of Miku living under the constant harassment of Lily.

"B-but she might do things to you too if she knows that you are with me... You don't have anything to do with this and I don't want you to get hurt for me..." Miku continued.

Upon hearing with words, Luka couldn't help but to grab Miku's body and pulled her into a tight hug. "I'm flattered that you still thinks about me under this circumstance, but I still recommend you to tell the principal about this. Don't worry about Lily, this time she had crossed the bottom line. I'm sure that Ms. Sakine would deal with her. Even if she doesn't, I will do my best to help you. You have my words." She said.

Miku wiped away her tears and smiled to Luka. "Thank you, Miss, for caring for a complete stranger..." Luka also smiled and wiped away the wet teal bang from the young girl's forehead. "Please, call me Luka, and don't mention it, It's the least thing I can do for an incredibly adorable girl."

"Am I adorable?" Miku asked cutely, which earned a soft giggle from Luka.

"The adorable-st." Luka smiled. "Come on, Ms. Sakine should still be around, we could still be able to catch up to her."
