Sadistic Music Factory

My name is Ryu Nakashima. Today's my first day working at Crypton Enterprises, where I can finally work with my love and idol, Hatsune Miku. I am currently walking toward the Crypton Main Building, where I could apply. I was given a pamphlet when I first came here, and it had all of the different divisions I could work in.

Foreign Negotiations Division - headed by Megurine Luka

Home Entertainment Division- headed by Kagamine Len and Rin

Experimenting Division- headed by Meiko and Kaito

Music Factory Division- headed by Hatsune Miku

When I told the officials that I wanted to join the Music Factory Division, they looked at me as if I just told them I wanted to die.

"You mean the Sadistic Music Factory?" one of the officials said.

"Sadistic?" I replied.

"You see…"He started. "The Music Factory originally started out with well over 100,000 applicants… sound reasonable, right? Since everyone pretty much loves Miku."

"And?" I urged him to go on.

"Now there's only 10 people left. The other 999,990 died of unknown causes." He finished.

"What the hell?" I thought. "So are you sure you still want to join the Music Factory Division?" the official asked.

"You might as well keep on calling it the Sadistic Music Factory after what you just told me." I said.

The official stayed silent.

"I didn't work this hard and come all this way for nothing." I said. "Let me join the Music Factory Division!" I said.

The official had a worried look in his eyes, but he still let me in the huge building. "Miku should be here any moment now, She gets really excited when she gets more visitors." He said, emphasizing on the word "visitors".

I was happy that I'm able to work under Miku , but the death toll for people in the Music Factory was still unbelievable.

"999,990". That number still lingered around in my head.

A few seconds later, I saw the official again, along with Miku. She gave me a surprised look, as if she remembered me from somewhere, then she returned to her normal smile and wave.

But my god was she gorgeous.

Those blueish-greenish colored pig tails that were abnormally long, her beautiful aqua eyes, that sweet smile… I almost wet myself at the sight. There she was, standing in her full glory, right in front of me, Hatsune Miku.

"You must be Ryu Nakashima, yes?" She asked politely.

Unable to form words, I gave a silent nod.

"Alrighty then!" She pumped her fist in the air. "Let me show you to your workplace! I'm sure you'll find yourself very comfortable in my factory." Miku said as she took my hand.

"She's actually holding my hand, and I can feel her skin" I thought. I was almost ready to pass out.

I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings, and still having my hand connected to Miku's, I noticed that her grip has gotten slightly harder, and this so called "Sadistic Music Factory" didn't seem to be connected to the main Crypton building.

In fact, it was nowhere near the metropolis that was now Tokyo.

We both arrived at two gigantic gates with a disc in the middle. Miku then actually hovered up to the disc, and with a light push the gates slowly opened. The feeling in the air immediately grew cold with tension. Miku then hovered down, and motioned for me to follow her. With my mouth agape, I slowly paced behind her.

To say the least, the factory was MASSIVE. It was the size of a castle combined with 5 football fields.

Miku gave me a light smile and then took my hand again, this time with a lighter hold. We went up a huge flight of stairs, which was easily about 50 ft, but I dealt with it, because Miku was holding my hand the whole time.

We finally came to a stop and went down a purple corridor. We stopped at a door that read "RN Triple 7"

"Triple 7?" I asked aloud.

"It means luck is on your side, unlike..." Miku ended, leaving the empty sentence in the air. "I need to change fast, alright? Please wait for me here." Miku said/asked as she walked away.

"Okay." I said, looking around.

All the rooms looked the same, except mine. I going to assume that RN stood for my name. But I brushed the thought aside and looked down the hallway. There was 2 black doors at the end of the hallway.

"That must be Miku's quarters." I thought. In the background, I heard gears turning and various music notes being sounded loudly, as well as loud banging and screaming.

"Wait, screaming?" I thought aloud. That thought was soon brushed aside as well when I saw Miku walking towards me, smiling again.

This time, She had a black dress on with a general hat on. She still had long boots, but the thing that intrigued me the most now, was the fact that she had pure, crimson red eyes. She opened the door to my room and started explaining stuff to me.

"These will be your living quarters for now on, and possibly your entire life…" She started. "Also, only see me as this, a Factory Tyrant that lives only for music, nothing more and nothing less."

"What?!" I exclaimed. But you're not a tyrant!"

For a moment, I saw her eyes widen in the slightest, but she shook her head and gave me a "I'm sorry, but it's true" kind of smile.

"In this factory, you shall make me music day after day, feeding me with the finest tuned music you can make." Miku said in a clear, assertive voice. "Should I see you slack off…" She started.

She held up one finger. "I will cut your wage, which is $100,000 a week, by 99.9%." She stated.

I saw where this was going, but sadly, I was mistaken.

She held up two fingers, silently indicating the second punishment for the second offense.

"I will subject you to torture for 5 straight days."

She held up three fingers, indicating the third and final punishment.

"I will kill you myself, You will die." She said firmly.

She must've saw the look on my face when she said that, because her smile returned, this time with her eyebrows arched down, as if she was confident or determined.

"But don't worry, I know you won't fail me… right, Ryu?"

"Yes Ma'am". I replied.

"Oh, and one more thing, never address me with honorifics. Should anyone do that, It will mean instant death."

"Why?" I asked, a little bit nervous.

"Because it makes me feel old, I never age. My eternal age is 16."

She walked towards me, cupping my cheeks with her hands.

"But that doesn't mean I don't get to address you with honorifics, Ryu-kun." She said as she lightly kissed my forehead.

She pulled away with a smirk on her face. Then her face turned serious.

"Alright, get yourself situated and make me some music!" She demanded, all the while smiling with a confident look in her eyes. She then left my room, and I heard her running down the hallway.

So it has come to this. I've now reached my dream and I can work with Hatsune Miku. But how is this new life with Miku going to turn out? And who exactly are my co-workers? I suppose time will tell in this type of situation.

"Well, now's the time. it's time to make some music."
