Chapter one: Len02
Sometimes in life you get stuck with things you never asked for. Whether it be an illness, a job loss, or simply a rainy day on your planned picnic;
life always throws surprises in our paths when thing are less than convenient. When Kaori Matsuo awoke on a particular day she hadn't a clue as to what life was going to throw at her as most teenagers do. The alarm clock on her cell phone blasted loudly and vibrated until it slipped off the
edge of her nightstand. Kaori groaned and squinted at the phone- the time was 6:30 am, the time she normally arose to prepare for school.
Begrudgingly, she sat up and kicked at her phone causing it to cease its whiny alarms. Kaori then dragged her feet over to the closet and pulled out her freshly pressed uniform and sat back on her bed. She was completely dressed and was now slowly pulling on her knee high socks, her eyes half closed from tiredness; she had been completely silent during this morning ritual. Her eyes wandered randomly towards her bright pink calendar that hung on the wall. She paused in her sock pulling, it was in fact Saturday. What an idiot, look at her with that stupid expression washed on her face!
How could a TEENAGER forget it was the weekend? Well that idiot is Kaori. Yes, Kaori is the unfortunate soul sitting on her bed in full uniform at exactly 6:45 on a Saturday morning. If it wasn't for her cell phone waking her up she'd probably never be able to tell you this story. What is this story about you ask? See the first sentence up there? Well Kaori is about to be stuck with six things that she has never asked for and it all starts with a little company called Crypton.
Okay back to Kaori sitting on her bed in utter shock, disappointment, and hunger (what? the girl hadn't even eaten breakfast yet) she actually enjoyed going to school; the lack of human interaction in her house lately has been zero. You see Kaori's parents are business people; they're the kinds who thrive on running off to go on business trips leaving their only daughter behind to fend for herself (like in those crazy anime shows).
This is no anime show however; she really had been living on my own. Her parentals left her with money, a stocked kitchen, and her grandma's cell phone number all of which was to keep her alive for the next month while they ran about in America. She stood up and stared at herself in the mirror. Kaori was nothing special really, plain dark brown hair, bangs that could be worn across my forehead or side swept, and boring brown eyes. Her body was physically average; poor Kaori was just another face in the crowd, someone who blended into the background quite easily. She never had a boyfriend before and that had never bothered her until recently.
It was like everyone and their mother was getting into a relationship. She often stared at herself in the mirror with scrutinizing eyes. She thought of what could be wrong with her, she was not ugly, yet why was she so alone? Being sixteen and boyfriend-less didn't help her social life either. She barely hung out with her friends outside of school because they were off with their boyfriends. Kaori pulled the skin on her face and then studied her body at another angle. Finally she decided to go out and do a little shopping to clear her mind (changing into normal clothes first of course!) Kaori carelessly spent her parent's money on cute clothing and accessories all morning. When it reached noon time she took the bus home. She sat at a window seat, throwing her bags next to her and then quickly plugged headphones into her ears and switched her iPod on. The ride was pleasant enough; Kaori was glad that no good looking boys got on for she didn't feel very cute at the moment with all her shopping bags piled next to her. She got off the bus and walked into her apartment building and up to the fifth floor. Mrs. Nakamoto, an old senile cat lady, was on her way out when she bumped into our heroine.
"Oh oh, Haru dear, there's a huge package outside your door-you really should put it in your apartment" the old woman patted Kaori's shoulder and walked on by. Haru was Kaori's mother's name. Without hesitation, Kaori sprinted down the hall to find a large box propped against apartment 202. Kaori placed her bags down and unlocked the door, when it opened; the box fell onto the floor. There was no use lifting it, it was too heavy, "What is there a body in here!?" she complained, so Kaori slid it in. "I haven't ordered anything…." She quietly said to herself. There was no return address. In fact, there was nothing on the box that indicated ownership except big black and silver letters that spelled "CRYPTON" across it. Kaori's eyes flickered with suspense and she immediately began cutting the box open with a kitchen knife. After removing some tissue paper from the top, Kaori was able to see the surprise inside. A boy. A real live boy. This boy was sleeping peacefully and curled up like a cat.
"HOLY SHIT, ARGHHHH!" Kaori couldn't say much else while she practically tripped over herself as she jumped backward. This couldn't be happening, could it? Why in the world would someone send me a body? Do I call the police? No that might be risky… All the while Kaori thought with her back turned, the boy decided to wake up. He quietly stood up, his knees slightly shaky from lack of use, and stretched. His blue eyes suddenly fixated on a girl he had never seen before. "…H-herro?" he spoke. Kaori stiffened up with surprise, at least he was a living boy, she turned sharply to face him, "Ah, hi there, heh." What is this some weird school boy cosplayer? She mentally noted his odd taste in fashion. He indeed wore an outfit similar to a school uniform; it was a white shirt with a black sailor style cape and a golden tie that matched his hair color. He wore black shorts that were trimmed with gold as well and a white headset over his ears. Kaori noticed a note taped to the boy's tie. They stared at each other for several seconds before the boy said, "Rin?" "No, I'm Kaori, may I have that paper?" Kaori's eyes were locked on her target, that mysterious letter!
The boy blinked and looked down, plucked the letter from his body and threw it on the ground the way a pouting child would. The papers scattered onto the floor. "That was rather rude. Pick them up please" Kaori said with an authorative voice. "NO!" he shouted, "I want Rin" he added, glaring. Kaori had no idea who this Rin person was and she really did not care. All she wanted was this strange cosplaying boy out of her apartment. "Fine, be a baby. There's no Rin here either!" she snapped as she quickly gathered up the papers that the boy hastily scattered. "Hmmm…?" Kaori began to read the first page….
Hello Customer! Thank you for purchasing VOCALOID2: Len Kagamine figure. We hope you enjoy your new 'pop star' but first read these guide lines so that you will better understand your robot friend…
"Robot friend? This sounds highly inappropriate" Kaori clutched the paper close to her face, "So his name is Len. Len Kagamine" she whispered as Len yelled "RIN?!"
Your VOCALOID will most likely have an odd behavior upon activation lasting for the first few days. This may include intensified sexual desires, excessive cheerfulness, extreme hunger, and not limited to violence.
"VIOLENCE?!" Kaori's eyes rapidly averted to Len who was searching the apartment for this Rin. "RINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!" his voice became so high pitched that a vase on the kitchen table shattered and Kaori immediately covered her ears. At the same time of the massive girly screech, Len ripped off a closet door and threw it backwards in his wild hunt for the unknown Rin. The wooden door crashed into Kaori's bedroom door, taking that down as well. "Sweet baby Jesus" was all the teenager could say with horror at Len's super human strength. "Len, stop!" she ran after him as Len disappeared in her room. "Where is Rin?" Len muttered robotically to himself as he began ransacking the bedroom. "Hey! Quit that!" Kaori cried out, her voice cracking; she stamped her foot angrily. Len picked up a stuffed bear and sniffed it with curiosity then in one big swoop he bit its head off and began chewing. "That is not food!" Kaori yanked the bear's head from Len's teeth, "bad!" she added, tapping him on the nose like a man would to the dog that just pissed on the carpet. Len's eyes seemed empty and he continued rummaging through anything and everything he could get his hands on.
VOCALOIDS are programmed to obey their masters, please be firm with them at first and make sure they understand 'who is boss'
"What, they're trained like dogs too?" Kaori tossed the packet of papers onto her bed and grabbed Len by the arm as he dug through her drawers. "Len, please stop" she pleaded, frustrated tears glazed her eyes. Len turned to face her, his eyes aglow with an inhuman anger, "Don't touch me, human" he fiercely retorted. With that, Len Kagamine shoved Kaori off of him and after that the world turned black. The wind from her moving body blew back the papers from her bed and they gently fluttered to the floor.
If you have any problems with your VOCALOID please call Crypton!
I hope you enjoyed it! Please let me know what you think, don't worry the first chapter was all introductory-the real fun begins in chapter two :D
