Ugh... well, I plan to write a new LenxMiku story and update my other stories soon, but I am so busy now. w I will update really much this weekend since I've got no school on next Monday and Tuesday!
Miku sighed as her fingers lingered on her phone. Was she going to make the call or not? She picked up the phone, dialed a number and then waited for a response.
"Hello?" the male voice answered.
"Hello, father." Miku said, trying to keep her voice steady.
"What is it Miku?"
"Well you see… I can't come today." Miku said, looking down on the ground.
"I… I see." she could obviously tell that he was disappointed.
"I am sorry father… do you have time tomorrow?"
"No I've got an important meeting tomorrow evening and then I have a business trip for a month."
"I see… well, how about after your trip?" Miku tried to sound hopeful.
"Yes, that will be good." her father said and Miku hung up. She felt so sad for not being able to meet with her father and Mikuo tonight. They were supposed to have a family meeting tonight, since their father was always so busy with his job and almost never came home. Her mother had died when she gave birth to Mikuo and he always blamed himself for it.
However, tonight she had something important to do. She was very interested by history and astronomy. Tonight was a specific night – the night when the stars of the seven sins would align and that was surely a sight. She didn't want to miss out this opportunity to watch it and write an article, but she felt so bad for ruining their family relationship. Mikuo would get mad at her when she got home. She gathered her stargazing equipment and then went outside. It was already dark outside so she had little time before the sight would occur.
There was another thing that made her decide to do this… she had found a letter addressed to her in her locker today in school. She didn't know who it was but that person wanted to meet her where she usually go and watch the stars.
She ran up the hill and turned left into a forest. How did that person know that place? It was her secret. She arrived at a meadow, ran right into the forest again and then came to the end of the hill where she had a beautiful sight over the whole city. The boy who was standing there… it was… who was it? He had a hood, so she couldn't really tell. She made her way to him.
"Hello?" Miku said, looking up at the sky. The stars were just a tiny bit from each other.
"Miku!" the boy turned around and Miku saw his face. She gasped.
"M-mikuo? Why aren't you with father?" she practically yelled.
"I came here to meet you. Father said that it was no idea for just us two to meet only, anyway."
"I thought that you would be mad if I didn't come… and then you are the second reason why I didn't come!" Miku stared at Mikuo who was smiling.
"Sister, it's something important." he assured. "This may sound strange but…"
"But?" Miku didn't like that word. It always meant something bad.
"I love you. I-it just came to me recently. We live alone and… you always care for me and…" he said, walking to her.
"That is what siblings should do. Care for each other." Miku stiffened as Mikuo had 'that' look on his face. "Oh no, you don't…"
"Oh yes." Mikuo smiled. "I know what I am feeling."
Miku didn't bother to answer. She immediately ran back to the forest, not caring what direction she was running towards. Tears fell as Mikuo's voice called for her from behind. Her own brother? Why? She kept running and found herself completely lost in the forest. It was completely dark and the stars were only seconds from aligning. Miku walked slower and found a really strange stone in the middle of the forest. It was glowing really strangely and she could see everything around it even if it was really dark.
She looked up again and the stars aligned. They glowed with a superior light and she quickly found her special mini telescope in her bag.. However, something other caught her attention. The stone was glowing far more than the stars and she was glowing too, which made her scared. She could see some letters inscribed on the stone, but before she could read them she suddenly felt as if something suddenly took a hold of her from behind. It felt as if she was falling. She couldn't tell what was happening.
The next second, she saw everything clearly again. A street full of walking people… below her? She was falling! People saw her as she screamed and she fell onto a woman.
"Ow… I-I am sorry!" Miku said as the woman yelped in pain.
"Where did you come from?" she cried, pointing to her clothes.
"What?" Miku stared down at herself. There was nothing wrong with her – just her school uniform. Oh… what… the hell. She stared at the woman who was wearing some kind of silk attire.
"You fell from the sky?" a man asked.
"Eh... what? That can't be possible! Anyone got a phone that I can lend?" The people stared at her as if she was a ghost.
"Phone? What is that?" the woman asked. "Something that you can wear?"
Miku realized something in that instant. She was not in her normal world… she had traveled back in time! No… that can't be possible… and how did this happen? A horse carriage came from the other side of the street and people stepped to the side. It made a stop when it arrived where Miku was sitting on the street. Someone stepped out of the carriage – it was a blue-haired man. He was wearing really elegant clothes. The people around them all bowed and said something about a prince.
"My my… what do we have here?" The man eyed Miku suspiciously, looking mostly at her strange sailor fuku.
"Who are you, sitting in the middle of the street, blocking the great prince Kaito Shion's passage?" a red-haired man jumped out of the carriage.
"W-what? Is this supposed to be a prank?" Miku stuttered, covering her legs that the blue-head was looking at. Had they never seen a skirt or were they just perverted?
"Prank?" a cold voice said. Miku saw something purple in the carriage. "Bow down to our prince. Who do you think that you are?"
"Now now…" the blue-head said. "No need to be like that."
Miku ignored them and stood up. She tried to sneak away, but everyone's focus was on her. Some guards came from behind and blocked her escape route.
"May I have your name, young lady?" the blue-haired man smiled and walked to her. Now where has she been in this situation before…? Oh yeah, when her brother confessed his love to her. She let out a small pathetic cry.
"M-miku." she replied. "C-can I go now?"
"No." he bluntly said. "My name is Kaito Shion, the fourth prince in this country. These are my brothers, Akaito and Taito."
"Nice to meet you, but I've got something to—"
"Miku, who are you and why are you here? Your clothes seem very… special." he smirked.
"Creep." she whispered to herself and then faked a smile. "Eh, I am from…"
"Interesting." he interrupted. You seem like a very mysterious lady. Would you like to come to the Emperor's palace? I'd love to have you there." Kaito said.
"No thank you very much. I don't think that…" The people gasped. She said no to an invitation to the palace?
Before Miku could do anything, Kaito made a small gesture with his hands. Akaito went back into the carriage and Kaito told the man who owned the horse to get down. He climbed up onto the horse's back and then, the guards moved. Miku was at first relieved that they were withdrawing, but suddenly, she felt the cold steel of armor against her skin. A guard lifted her and quickly put her in the carriage while she tried to hit him. The next sight was terrifying.
Akaito was glaring at her and… that creepy purple-haired man in the corner was smiling at her like some kind of devil. He didn't really look that different from the devil… no he must be it. How did she get into this situation? The carriage began moving and Miku quickly glanced on the door. But of course that red-head had to see that. He blocked the door with his hands and then smirked mischievously. What the heck was happening?
"I-I demand that you let me go now." Miku stuttered, pointing to the door.
"Why? Our brother invited you to the palace. It's a great honor." Akaito said.
"I don't want to." Miku impatiently said, her fingers lingering on an object. Yes… she still had her handbag! She quietly opened it and found her telescope.
"Don't move! If you do, I will shoot you with this Ultra Flare Sun Ray Gun!" Miku yelled making Akaito jump.
"W-what is that?" he gulped. It certainly looked frightening. Taito didn't move an eyebrow.
"W-what? Not afraid?" Miku said, pointing the telescope to Taito. She quickly found her switchblade knife that she used for emergency situations. "Ha! This is a blade that can extend to any length! The super knife!"
"Aah! Don't kill me with that you woman if the devil!" Akaito cried. Taito smiled and picked up something too.
"Show me your power then." he slowly said, pointing an ice pick to Miku. She tried to hold the bluff, but when the switchblade knife couldn't extend anymore, she surrendered. Taito smiled in victory and Akaito glared daggers at Miku.
"A bluff? How dare you trick me!" Akaito grabbed Miku's tie. She cried in pain as the carriage suddenly stopped and Akaito dropped her onto the floor.
Taito was the first to jump outside, followed by Akaito. Miku shook her head and peeked outside only to find the creepy prince waiting for her. She quietly got out and he didn't notice her. What a carefree person! She quickly sneaked behind the carriage and then ran to the nearest street and disappeared in the massive crowd.
It's so hard for me to like any other pairing, but the idea for this story is that I will let every boy have some kind of interaction with her. And then I guess I will kind of let you reviewers decide on which boy you want to see mostly in the story. The final pairing will be decided later though. :3
See you!
