My second story. Hope you guys like it. and if you hate it that's okay too. I love all of you who read my last story. Let another begin
People must wonder what it is like to die, but in this world... No one dies. It is a world of perfection and timeless beauty. But.. Perfection comes with a price. My name is Hatsune Miku. First name Miku. Last name Hatsune. I am a 01 model of the female species, but unlike all the others I have one priceless thing. I have the ability to love, but If you could live in a "perfect" world, what would you do?
~ End of Intro~
I woke up to the night sky. I always wake up before the sun but it's just another day in an endless cycle. I need to get ready... They might come again. I don't like being caught off guard. I changed into my black top, short, and jacket. In this world I am know as Black Rock Shooter. What is this world you ask? It's the world after the end. Everything is gone. Everyone is gone...expect for the androids like myself. I grabbed my rocket launcher and left my small house. It's not much, it's a dark house made of metal. I believe the humans use to call it a trailor.
I spotted my partner near the entrance of our once popular city for the humans called Tokyo. I walked over to her and she looked at me with fear.
"They're coming. They're not that far away" said the pink haired woman who went by the name of Megurine Luka.
I looked over to where the sun started to peak it's head without fear. I'm afraid of nothing since fear is something I abandoned a long time ago. They were they but coming at a slow pace. Only 5 of them. They must be getting scared. And what am I talking about? The enemy. The creatures that dwell the earth. They're ugly things and that's what we call them. Things.They're about 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide and they kill everything they can find find. My job as leader is to protect my people.
" There aren't many. Handle me the nissle. I can take care of them" I responsed to Luka with a grin on my face.
"Won't it wake everyone up though?" She said with a worried look. She's a 03 model so she over re-acts to stuff. It's annoying.
" Do you want them dead then?" I asked while loading my rocket launcher. There's just one person I seriously don't want dead. His name Mikuo Hatsune. He's a 01 model like me and unlike the others, he's ...how you say...different I suppose. I aimed and shot at them. They scattered around like ants for a bit and retreated. Those must have been babies. I looked back at my town. There's only 8 of us: Hatsune Mikuo, Shion Kaito, Sakine Meiko, Kagamine Len, Kagamine Rin, Megurine Luka, Megurine Luki, and myself. There are only 8 androids that were ever made. It's only us...and them.
"They were surprisingly weak. Do you think they'll leave us alone now?" Luka asked with hope in her eyes
"No, those were just babies, but I can't help but feel they're up to something. I just don't know what."
"Well it's time for me to check out. See ya later Black Rock Shooter"
"Yeah, see ya." I turned and stood on top of a high rock as the wind blew my hair behind me. I'm never going to let my people get hurt. I will protect them with all my strenght. I have to be their leader, but in the end, there's only so much I can do for them. I mustn't baby them.
But in such a perfect world with only one worry and time as your friend what else is there? They don't know what love is but maybe one day they will. I'm not their mother or anything I just want the best for my people. I wish we could be in the time of the humans. Where there were many worries but many many laughs and smiles and love.
"Hey Black Rock Shooter, are you trying to look like the super hero in the book we found?" I heard someone say and turned to see it was Mikuo.
" No, I was making sure the Things left. I shot straight at them and I had to make sure they all left." I told him in a serious voice. I'm always serious because I know what the Things can do unlike the others.
" So that's why I was suddenly awaken at the crack of dawn to an explosion."
Mikuo is never really serious. He's like the complete oppisite of me. I don't mind him as much as Luka to where she's worrying 24/7. I envy how all of them can be so careless and what not compared to me who is ready to kill at any given second. I have to make this a perfect world for them and sacrfice myself.
" So Miku," He said as he sat down near me. " Are you gonna hang out with us tonight?"
" No, I have to keep guard." I still havent made eye contact. My eyes haven't left the horizon. I'm just too busy watching. Watching for the Things.
" Aww, you have to come. You never hang out with us you know."
" I know. I'm too busy."
" You guard, fight, read, and sleep. You need to become more social with your people otherwise they'll see you as an outsider instead of a leader."
I turned to him with sharp eyes. " I do what I do for my people. I must do the necessaries before the options. Understand?"
He nodded his head and turned to the horizon. I love him but sometimes he just doesn't understand...Love... I wonder if he knows what it is. To everyone else they say it's just a legend but he's never given me a response to it.
"Hey Hatsune Mikuo, do you know what love is?" I asked without my serious voice for once.
He looked at me and turned back. " Hmm... Maybe, why?"
" I want yes or no. Not maybe"
" well I don't know if I do." He hugged his knees and looked foward to the horizon. He looked lifeless. I don't know how else to explain it but it's like he checked out for a second. I probably shouldn't have asked him that question but I would still like to know if the person I love knows how I feel. I wish I could hug him and all that lovey dovey human stuff but I must keep it a secret for it the others found out about my ability who knows what they would do.
It's painful being in a one sided love. But even if it is I must bare with it. I have to keep fighting for him and the others and never lose myself in this emotion. This emotion is a horrible one that I wish I never had but at the same time I never want to lose it. It's complicated and I must sound bipolar right now but I just don't know about it. I need to forget it right now and focus on my work.
" So Miku, I was wondering..." Mikuo said as his voice started to disappear more and more as he went on. "...if you could tell me that story again.."
I smiled switch is something I rarely do unless I'm with him. He likes the story I made up a long time ago when we were 1st made. " Okay. I will."
I sat next to him and started
" Once upon a time there lived a young girl.
She was a princess to a very important kingdom.
Then one day she left.
For years and years the girl was alone.
Then on her 18th birthday a prince came
And rescued her. The girl was so happy.
Then the princess realized that she was gone for a long time.
And she started to wonder if people would remember her
And if her parents would still love her.
She began to cry and cry until she couldnt anymore.
The prince told her that sometimes you just have to take a chance
So the the princess returned to her family
And found out they couldnt even stop thinking of her.
And they all live happily ever after."
Mikuo leaned on my shoulder and whispered "you know Miku, you'll always be our princess and protector so please don't leave us. Okay?" He sounded like I was going to leave. I wish this momment could last forever.
I whispered back " I promise I won't leave." I looked at the sunrise with him still leaning on me. For awhile, the world was perfect and my artifical heart was beating so fast yet so slowly it was a magical momment. " Mikuo...I want you to know...I-" I was cut off by the sound of screaming. Mikuo and I immediately jumped up and ran to it. It turns out it was Rin. A baby Thing had gotten into her house. I pulled out my sycthe and cut it into 4 pieces. Looks like reality came back.
"I-it's d-d-d-dead r-right?" Rin asked shaking. Len holding her looked at me with frightened eyes.
"Yeah, It looks like one crawled in through the pipes. I'll have Sakine Meiko work on it as soon as possible. For now go somewhere else. This place isn't safe for the momment. Mikuo, go get Sakine Meiko. We need this place Thing-Free for the Kagamines." I said while patting Rin's head. "It's okay Rin. Did it hurt you?"
She shook her head. "Are...are they all like that?"
"No, They're worse." Len said as he went to clean up the Thing's corpse.
"Black Rock Shooter, you're going to protect me right?" she asked like I was her only help.
I hugged her kissed the top of her head. "Of course, it's my job to do so." She's a 02 model so she's half and half. If she's ready for an attack she's one of the best but if caught off guard she's helpless like what happened right now. I like to think of her as my little sister since she's always running to me for stuff. Too bad androids can't be related to other androids.
She hugged me tightly and thanked me. Meiko came and fixed the pipe problem. I can't explain it since I'm a fighter not a handyman but I'm a doctor. In here I'm the leader and doctor, Meiko is the handyman, Rin is the cook, Len is the messager, Luka is the tailor, Kaito and Luki are the computer people and Mikuo is my assisatant. We all work together to keep this place in one piece.
"Well scream if something else happens. I have to go back to my post" I then left with Mikuo and for the rest of the day we kept quiet. Nothing else happened but I swear I hear the Things talking in the distance. They're planning something. I just don't know what or when or how to stop it. I have to go to the Forgotten. The place where the things are and find out. I just hope Mikuo and the others can get through until I come back.
I'll leave tomorrow.
So what do you guys think of it so far? hehe, a tad romance in there but I wonder how Miku can over come her fear and confess but then again this story isn't completely about love now is it? I'll update asap. Please Review~ Love ya.
