Black and Ashes
Her beautiful form slowly withered, covered by ashes and surrounded by flames...
"RIN!" I shouted, running down the hall of the burning building. "RIN! Where are you?" I shouted once again. I slammed every door open, I was covered in sooth and ashes, the white dusts gathered around my blond bangs. "RIN! Damnit!" I cursed loudly, kicking a door open, but Rin was not in there.
"LEN!"
My eyes widened, I followed the voice of my other half, Rin. I grasped the knob of the door, only to regret it. I hissed in pain, I immediately pulled my hand away, my fake synthetic skin melted upon the hot metal knob. Under the skin was metal-like bone structure. But I have no time for this! I have to—
"LEN!"
I panicked. I felt a sudden burst of energy inside of, something akin to adrenaline, it was my defense system acting up. My system to protect Rin. With one simple kick, the door flew out of its hinges and crashed across the room, cracking the soot covered walls. "Rin! Where are you?" I shouted through the smoke. The desks and drawers were in flames, and chairs were flung across the room. I narrowed my eyes through the thick smoke, looking for any signs for Rin.
"I'm right here!" came her shout. I immediately found where she is, I quickly rushed towards her side. I gasped, a horrified expression spread across my face. Rin's legs were under the fallen cement ceiling. "Len," she said, I could hear the hope in her voice. I smiled sadly at her; I held the boulders of cement and pushed it out of the way (which, to my surprise, was quite easy). A gasp escaped my lips, Rin's legs was totally crushed under the weight. Blood, melted skin, wires, and metals scattered where her legs was supposed to be; If I were human, I would have been throwing up right now.
"R-Rin," the name rolled out of my tongue, I could feel tears stung my artificial eyes. With a slight whimper, I took her from the ground, as careful as possible. We may not be human, but we still feel pain (sometimes having emotions can be a pain in the ass). She yelled in pain, and gasped.
"L-Len! I-it hurts!" she yelled, tears flowed down the side of her face like rivers. A tear fell from my eyes.
No, there is no time for tears. I have to get Rin out of here as fast as I could!
And so I ran.
I dodged the falling ceilings, lamps, loose wires, and fallen lights. The building gave a slight rumble, the ground shook under my feet.
"Len, we're not going to make it!" Rin shouted, her voice was filled with pain. It hurts my ears to hear her like that.
"No," I muttered.
"Len?"
"NO!" I shouted, "We can still make it!" I won't let everything end right here. I won't… I WILL protect you, Rin. I won't let you die just yet.
Rin shifted around my arms, she let out a moan and placed a hand on my wet, soot covered cheek. "Len, please, save yourself while you can," she said. She never looked so miserable. I could feel my anger boil, how can she still be idiotic at a time like this? "L-Len? What are you—?"
I kept running down the hall with one thing in mind. "I'll get you out of here alive," I paused, feeling her big blue eyes staring at me. "Even if I had to die."
I will protect you, Rin. No matter what.
Where am I?
Fire…
Building…
Rin…
"RIN!" Len shouted, his eyes wide and looked around. "Rin!" he shouted once again, he tried to stand up, but failed miserably.
Was it a dream?
No?
What was it?
Where is Rin?
He panted heavily, the fact he doesn't need to breathe did not crossed his mind. He observed the room he was currently in. It appears that he was inside one of Crypton's Labs, the same place where he first awoke, the place where he was created. He turned his head to the side, he stared at the empty lab table –where Rin should be.
Len felt a little strange, like a piece of him is gone. Is it a good thing, or a bad thing?
The blond robot stared down at his hands, they were covered in bandages. He should be feeling bad right now, but why can't he? His hand travelled towards his blond locks, and felt the very same bandages covering his head.
What's going on?
…Rin?
Why does he feel so… Empty?
He felt a sudden pain by his right eye. He immediately placed a bandaged hand on it, only to find it covered in bandages.
Len's mind was reeling. Questions filled his mind.
What's happening?
Did it really happen?
Rin… where are you?
"Len?"
Len looked up slowly, his face blank and void of emotions. His friends stood by the door way of the lab; Miku, Kaito, and Meiko…But where's Rin?
"Rin?"
The Vocaloids exchanged look, Miku bit her lips nervously. "D-Don't you remember… anything?"
Len's face darkened, his blank face was replaced by a scowl. "Where's Rin?" he demanded, his voice laced by anger. Miku whimpered and hid behind Kaito, who also hid behind Meiko.
Len has no idea what was going on. His mind was swirling, he felt his anger boiling up. He wants to… he wants to…
"She's… gone, Len…" Meiko muttered, her eyes refused to make contact with Len's rage-filled ones. "Rin is… gone…"
Len's vision blackened…
A/N: Hello! I wasn't planning on putting this up… (I should be working on my other story… But I lost motivation, in other words, I got lazy).
Anyway, this is probably angst-y and Len would be very, very… How should I say this… Dangerous? Violent? Meh, your pick…
So, what do you guys think? Too confusing? Don't worry, everything will be answered… a little later… Not sure…
Just tell me your opinion! And oh, I'm not really good in first person, so please tell me what you think of it! Please? For my sake of improving?
