Chapter 1: The Legend Is True?!
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters
Megurine Luka walks into the path that leads to the Dark Forest; others call it "Cursed Forest".
There was a legend known to all citizens of Kuroi Village. The legend was that 10,000 years ago. There lived a very pretty princess, Princess Meiko. She was forbidden to leave the palace but Princess Meiko longed to have adventure, to dance goofily, to fall in love and live happily ever after. On the 7th August, when all the guards were sleeping, the princess escaped from the palace. But the queen had seen her and called the guards. The princess ran and ran into the dark forest. It is said that every guard that had come after her and went into the dark forest. Never came back. Only one had survived, and he'd gone completely insane and he lost his eye sight. 10 years later, another weird event occurred. At the exact date and time that Princess Meiko disappeared, all the married women had gone in there and had never came back. 1000 years later , on the day of Halloween , it was said that monsters had went out of the dark forest killing half of the population of Kuroi village. A sorceress casted a spell on the dark forest. A spell that keeps all the monsters inside and their king, Kaito. "Kaito, you have created chaos and had killed hundreds of people. I've had enough; I can no longer stand and continue life as if nothing's wrong. I have put a curse on you before and I can still to that now" the sorceress said. With that the monsters king had been cursed.
"Luka-san, m-maybe we should just chicken out,"Miku said. She was shaking furiously and she was on the verge of crying. Luka looked at Miku and said, "You don't need to follow me Miku if you're frightened. I'm doing this so that I would get that money and that all these nonsense would stop," "But you're my best friend, I can't leave you alone," Miku said. Luka sighed as she continued walking along the path. Miku hesitantly follows behind her. After a couple of minutes, they were finally in front of the dark forest.
Luka couldn't wait to get in there since she wanted to settle this once and for all. She steps over the line that separates the rest of the forest from the outside. She smiles to herself as she continued walking. "L-luka! I c-can't go in there! I'm afraid,"Miku shouts. But Luka was out of sight already. Miku being such a worry wart faces her fears and run along the path until she saw Luka again.
"L-luka? Come on, let's go!" Miku shouts. As Miku came closer, she saw a huge wooden house painted in black. Clearly excited, Luka knocks on the door. Miku whimpered, afraid of what's to come. But nothing happens, nothing but the wind blowing. "Okay, I've proven that the legend is fake, picture me with the house as proof so I can get the money from Neru,"Luka said. Miku took out the camera and pictured Luka. Luka then grabbed Miku and pulled her alongside. "See? It wasn't real! Don't be such a scared cat, okay?"Luka said, pushing Miku gently over the line.
As Luka was about to step over the line, someone grabbed her shoulder and pulled her away. "Luka-san!" Miku screamed. "Don't come after me, alert the villagers to stay away from here! I can take care of myself!" Luka shouted back. Luka wasn't afraid of what is pulling her. Instead she grabs a fallen branch as she passed by and hit it, really hard. She managed to get out of its grasp and she ran towards the line. Unfortunately, something knocked her out cold. Her vision was blurry. All she saw was blue then everything went black.
I know this chapter is short but I wanted to leave it at that. I promise that the next chapter is longer. I swear!
