Chapter 1: Sekiranun Graffiti (Part 1: Seeing Supercell Storms)
Well, I know how I started off my original but no, I am not. I know I am going to say something like: It was a beautiful…la-de-de-da.
So I will because…why not.
-Miku's POV- (LoL not)
I wake up to the sound of chirping birds, rustling leaves, footsteps, noise. Mondays, fuck you. Fuck you completely. Ruin my week by existing; but that would mean I'd hate Tuesdays…nnnnngggggg, brain is so sleepy.
"Yo Miku-chan! Breakfast is ready!" my brother shouts loudly from down the hall of our small apartment. I groan and force my heavy, well not heavy, you know…never mind. I got up with extreme effort.
My name is Hatsune Miku, 16 and about to start my first day of…
"FIRST DAY OF HIGH SCHOOL!" I scream in a high pitch voice.
"Argh! JESUS CHRIST MIKU!" my brother shouts angrily. Oh, my older brother (by 4 years) is Hatsune Mikuo. He likes to drink sometimes and last night he came home drunk and is probably suffering from a hangover.
'But he shouted, maybe it was the pitch?'
Never mind. I like leeks and singing and my friends and my family…who is away most of the time. You see our parents work constantly overseas and since they are working so much, they barely come home and they don't want to drag us out of school, so they brought us this apartment and pay for our school fees online or something. I walk to my mirror and sigh. I wish I could grow a little more. But I don't worry about that. I get on my school uniform and put my teal hair into twin tails and skip happily to the kitchen to see my brother groaning and sighing.
"What happened last night brother?" I ask curiously.
"Meiko-san challenged me to a sake drinking contest and…well I lost, badly" he replied groaning. I knew Meiko, she was a fan of sake and constantly got drunk but never seemed to appear…hung-over the next day, which is probably why my brother is more pissed off today because Meiko is probably going to mock his hurting head.
My brother worked in my high school, here in Kyoto. He was a science teacher who taught the first years. Like me! He was given the job as soon as he left the same school after his exceptional grades and recommendations from colleges (he did courses that sometimes allowed him to go to some colleges).
"Well, I'll drive us to the school, without dying hopefully" Mikuo said groaning and I realised my first day of high school, might become one in hospital.
Shit…
-Len's POV-
"Len…hey, Lenny…SHOTA!" a voice suddenly shouts, releasing me from the blank, open eyed trance I had.
"Don't call me that Rin" I reply sighing. I would only allow her to get away with calling me a shota when waking me up from sleep. Or trance. My sister looked a lot like me, blonde hair, blue eyes like the azure sea, she was slightly shorter than me and we both had the same figure. Which is why many people mistake us for twins. Well technically we are but not blood related twins.
My name is Kagamine Len, I'm 16 and starting my cursed life at high school. I really didn't want to go. I have…problems with people. When I was a young boy I was put into martial art classes and I learnt self-defence while also learning music.
Ah! I love music. Bands and artists like 'FLOW', 'Orange Range', 'Green Day', 'Fallout Boy'. Ahhhh... bliss. I love 'Green Day' they seem to have that sense of…reality about them whether it be insanity, drugs, love or politics. 'Orange Range' they just have go music, mixtures of rap, rock, pop-
"LEN GET YOUR ASS DOWNSTAIRS TO EAT THE BREAKFAST I MADE OR I WILL NUKE THE BANANAS!" Rin yelled from down stairs and I sighed and decided obedience = bananas. So I got dressed, put on my white shirt, navy blue shorts, a blue jacket and some runners. I put my white headphones around my neck and put the wire down my shirt and connected it to my iPod (my case had bananas on it). I put my long hair in a small ponytail and grab my already packed bag and walked downstairs of the small two storey apartment we owed. We were on the top floor and because our parents, Lola and Leon are part of an international company called Yamaha. My own parents had high ranking jobs but they died when I was 12. I sniff. That month was bad and I knew it affected me. I could tell by my insomnia. I hated sleeping. They died when I asleep and I turned on the news the next morning and…never mind.
"Morning Rin" I say yawning.
"God damn it Len, go to sleep once in a while" she said pouting. I shrug, it's not like I care in any way.
"Breakfast is ready" she said sliding me a plate of bacon and eggs.
I eat as I listen to an opening door and a closing door and people leaving for their mundane and boring lives. Soon I hear the screeching of tires and a scream from people as the loud noise startled them.
"We catching a bus?" I ask curiously.
"Yeah" Rin answered nodding.
Damn, I have to be around people.
-Miku's POV-
I was at Kyoto High School now, after the welcoming ceremony thingy in the gymnasium. I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bored. I sigh as more boys try and confess to me. I got this in Middle School too. For fuck sakes. I love music with bands and artists like: 'supercell' and 'A Day To Remember (ADTR)'. They make me fell...lost within the lyrics, the notes and the voices being sung.
"MIKUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" I hear a screaming voice and I jolt forward as a smaller girl hugs me from behind. I see the blonde hair, the white ribbon twitching rapidly to her excited emotions and the closed blue eyes.
"Rin let go, we are in public" I said with my hands on my hips as people walked pass us.
"Sorry Miku…but it been forever since we last seen each other!" Rin replied smiling. I sigh.
Rin was in my music group which was outside of school, when we were younger but when Middle School hit, we began to see each other less and less but we still communicated via phone, email and texts. But I haven't seen her since we were 12.
"What class are you in?" Rin asked eagerly.
"Errrrrrrrr…1-3 with a Mr. Kiyoteru" I answer.
"ARGH! I'm in 1-2 with Ms. Meiko" Rin replied groaning. I smile. Rin was like a puppy dog right now, never wanting to leave it's master.
"Don't worry, I'll see you at lunch or break or something like that" I said patting her head.
"Okay Miku-san" Rin pouted before cursing and running off to find her class as I was in front of mine. I walk in and see a class with girls eager to meet my acquaintee and boys who kept muttering: eye candy.
WTF.
Well, most of the boys. I spot one boy looking out the window with white headphones on his head covering his ears. He had a small notepad out and kept writing down something. His blonde hair and blue eyes reminded of someone I just saw. But I deduced that possibly because the boy had black rings around his eyes and the person I was thinking of was energetic and happy not tired and quiet.
"Everyone please sit down" I voice said and I see a man wearing black trousers, a white shirt under a black jacket, he had headphones around his own neck, steel frame glasses over his grey eyes and his black hair seemed to shine in the classroom lighting. "I am Hiyama Kiyoteru, I will be your home teacher or some crap like that for this god damn year"
The class seemed, a little relaxed and surprised by Kiyoteru-sensei. He seemed…studious, hard but he was actually just a bored as us.
"Right, need to know who the fuck you are" Kiyoteru said and we all seem…nervous at his sudden coarse language. He seemed to notice this, "I have tourettes".
We nervously laughed. Was he joking? Or was he serious. Anyways we got on with it.
A blonde haired, cat eared, South Korean girl was SeeU. A light pink haired girl was IA. A boy with a bandana covering his black hair and who had a decorated scabbard for a real blade was Yuuma. I wonder how he got that through school without trouble. The blonde haired, English boy. The one with the bandage over his right eye was Oliver and his goldfinch was James.
I mean, my class is weird. Already I have a cat-obsessed Korean girl, a dangerous and man looking thug and an English boy with a bird called James.
Two things. One, my class is multicultural and two, it is soooooooooooo quirky.
"And you, the one with the teal twintails with the teal eyes and with every boy looking at her" Kiyoteru said. Reminding me that it is my turn and secondly to tell the boys to stop being pervs.
"My name is Hatsune Miku, I like music and leeks!" I introduce myself cheerfully and I sat down.
"Cheers" Kiyoteru said writing down my name on the whiteboard up front and drew a leek next to it. I notice there also symbols to represent other people. Yuuma had a katana, Oliver had a bird and SeeU had a cat. "You the one not listening!"
The boy stood up without removing his headphones, I wonder how he knew what was being said.
"I'm Kagamine Len, I guess I like music and bananas" he said shrugging before sitting down. Some of the boys muttered darkly. They seemed to think maybe Len was trying to get close to me by saying he like music but by the look of things. He genuinely does like music. Wait…Kagamine…RINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
-Third Person POV-
Miku and Rin were walking up the stairs of the school to go to the rooftop for lunch. The boys confessing to Miku was beginning to annoy her, and it was her first day of high school. So they decided that peace and quiet was required. Rin had threatened any boy who followed them would feel her wrath. They laughed until she kicked a third year boy in the face for trying to follow them. The boys realised…following was an unhealthy choice for them.
"Why didn't you tell me you had a brother?" Miku exclaimed and Rin laughed.
"You mean Len?" she replied as they reached the top.
"Yeah" Miku answered and they walked out and saw…Len laying down on his back nodding his head to the music in his headphones, he was staring up at the sky. He was humming a familiar tune. Miku realised what it us. You see, many teenagers now-a-days are YouTube makers, some successful, some not. Miku was one of these. But her parents made her go under a made up name, as sensibility dictates. So Miku was called 'Vocaloid 01' after the combination of vocals and android (I guess) and she was the first under the name. No one knew who she actually was. Not even Rin or her brother Mikuo which is why she was a little nervous now.
"Niwaka ame ga toori sugiteiku/Zubunure no boku wa tachitsuku shite" Len sung in a voice Rin never heard before.
"Natsu no nioi ga sukoshi shita/Nee kono mama tabi ni dekake you yo" Miku continued the verse. Now Rin glanced at Miku, they seemed to be in perfect harmony.
"Doko ka tooku/Dore kurai toki ga sugitatte/Kono omoi wo mune ni shimatte/Bokura wa ikite ikun da/Ai to music sore dake de ii nda/Hoshii mono wa subete aru kara/Boku no naka ni" Len and Miku sung as the chorus seemed to be what made Len realize that Miku was here and his sister Rin. When they finished, Len freaked out and then Miku freaked out realising what she had done. Rin just glanced at the two in amusement. They seemed so alike.
"Hi, my name is Hatsune Miku" Miku introduced smiling sweetly. Len looked at Rin and she nodded.
"Kagamine Len" Len replied slowly, his caution was obvious. Rin looked nervously at Len, he was freaking out. He didn't like meeting new people but Rin also saw something new in those blue eyes of his...recognition and interest.
"Umm, a-a-are you V-v-vocaloid 01 on YouTube?" Len asked blankly and innocently, free of guile. Miku was smiling outside but inside she was sweating.
"HAHAHAHAHA! Len what are you talking about you idiot! Miku can't be Vocaloid 01! Their voices may sound similar but Miku doesn't like media like that!" Rin cracked up breaking the tension and Len apologized. Miku didn't mind but she was now interested in the boy with the true sense of music.
-Len's POV-
I sigh as I walk through the door of my room. Miku was…interesting and the rest of the day was spent having people looking at me as if I murdered their friend or something. Rin disregarded the fact that Miku was Vocaloid 01. But she was. I heard the voice, unwavering, at ease with the song I was singing, it was as if she made it. I believe she did. I turn on my laptop and click on the familiar red play button.
I go to my own channel and see my videos. Songs. Covers, original, instrumental. I wasn't a famous as Vocaloid 01 but I try.
Maybe Miku isn't Vocaloid 01. I was thinking for a long time about this. I shook my head at last. As I switched off my laptop. I had homework to do, and that is priority.
Still I wonder though.
I still wonder.
Why was I so interested in this girl?
Ah! fuck it.
The start of the thunderclouds becoming storm.
