I've been in the spotlight for two years now, idolized by my many fans for my talent of singing…but now, my career was in jeopardy… a new singer, by the name of Hatsune Miku was the new 'thing' with all the teenagers for her innocent voice and 'adorable' appearance. Even though she was just an amateur, she already had a number one hit, and had already surpassed my popularity…
'Out with the old and in with the new' People would say, though there was no way I could admit that…Hatsune might be the 'new and current' thing, but I wasn't going to let her steal the spotlight…I'm Len Kagamine, and there's no way in hell I was going to give up on my career.

Chapter 1:

~Len~

One of the things that was so original about me was that I always wrote my own songs…I wouldn't let people do the work for me, or take other people's recycled shit...everything about my songs was mine, my voice, the words…I wasn't gonna let anyone take that away from me. I had dignity to keep.
Lately…I've come across a case of writer's block…and haven't been able to think of any new song ideas. But it had already reached a point that I HAD to write a song quickly for my new CD.
"What'cha doing, Len? Working on a song?" I jumped when I heard my twin sister's voice, "I can help you, but you always say you have it all together…" She said, her arms crossed and her blue eyes fixed on the paper which I was scribbling ideas on.
"It doesn't matter, Rin. Go away, I'm busy…" I grumbled, shooing her off when she refused to leave, "I'll tell Meiko to kick your ass if you don't go."
Rin simply laughed, knowing that I wasn't being serious, "Meiko's drinking…so I wouldn't bother her right now. But anyway, you didn't tell me what you were working on." She persisted to pester me about it, so I just eventually gave in…
"I'm trying to think of a new song…I need one soon unless the deal is off…I haven't come out with anything new in forever." My face fell, my messy blond bangs covering my eyes, "I can't seem to think of anything though…"
Rin seemed to be lost in deep though, "Hm…well, how 'bout I help you brainstorm some ideas?" She pulled up a chair next to me at my desk, "Let's see…it should be a love song, everyone loves those…right?" She winked at me playfully.
"That sounds good…but what should the love song be about?" I sighed in exasperation, leaning back on my swivel chair, "There's a million of them too…I need to make this one original."
Both of us thought in silence for a few minutes until Rin finally spoke up, "How about you make a really sexy song? All your fangirls will love it!"
I considered her idea, writing it down, "Yeah…you're right." I wasn't even half done yet, I still had to think up lyrics…and all the rest of that crap that took forever. "Well…you should get some rest; I'll probably be up all night with this…"
She nodded, smiling brightly, "Okay! I can help you with it later if you want to…" Her eyes suddenly lit up, "OH! I was going to tell you…I got tickets to a Hatsune Miku concert for Gumi, Miki, and me…but Miki couldn't make it. I was wondering if you wanted to…you know, tag along with the both of us?"
I frowned, was Rin really that naïve? "I can't. Do you guys WANT to be bombarded by paparazzi? Plus, I don't want to go to her concert, she sucks…" I didn't say Hatsune's name…it always left a vile taste in my mouth. "I might be busy tomorrow too…"
Rin looked hurt, "Okay, that's just fine. You don't have to be so mean about it you know…" She said crossly, "You weren't like this before."
My blue eyes narrowed, "Before what?"
"Before you got famous, dumbo." She said sarcastically, stomping out of the room and slamming the door behind her.
"JUST SHUT THE HELL UP!" I screamed angrily after she left, anger bubbling up inside of me…I felt so stressed, and fighting with Rin wasn't helping…why the hell did she want me to go to a Miku concert, anyway? Miku was stealing all my popularity…I hated her.

~Rin~

I locked myself up in my room, burrowing under the covers and holding the pillow over my head. Len was such a jerk…he would always spend time with me before he started his career…but now I was just ignored.
I had always felt happy for him…but now, he seemed like an entirely different person. Now he was irritable all the time, and of course…his ego had grown twice its size since the past year.
"I hate him…" I mumbled to myself as salty tears began to pour down my cheeks. We'd used to always sing together…it was a passion that we both shared…but now, he was the famous one…and I was just his sister.
I had always wanted to become a singer…and now, I was seriously considering the idea. I could sing just as well as Len could, probably even better…and everyone loved cute girls, right? Maybe…I could be just as popular as Hatsune Miku!
But…it was still just a dream…but a dream comforting enough that my tears stopped and I fell into a deep slumber…waking up the next morning on the anticipated date of the concert.
When I walked into the kitchen breakfast was already prepared, "Hi, Kaito! Where's Meiko and Len?" I inquired, sitting down at the table and resting my elbows on the countertop.
My older brother, Kaito grinned sheepishly, "Well…Meiko isn't feeling well so I decided to leave her get some sleep, and Len left early, he said he was busy…" He sat down next to me, eating his own plate of waffles along with some vanilla ice-cream.
"Oh…okay." I answered; looking a bit saddened…I really wanted to apologize to Len, but it was too late…he had already left, without even saying goodbye to his sister…
I tried to shield my anger, "Thanks for the breakfast!" I forced a smile, finishing up my breakfast quickly and leaving the kitchen to get ready.
I picked out one of the cutest outfits in my closet which consisted of a simple black tank, a cute grey skirt with my favorite yellow belt (which surprisingly went perfectly with the outfit), black leggings which cut off above my knees, my new pair of adorable boots, and of course, my signature white bow. It was perfect for this occasion, and maybe it'd attract a few boys that'd be attending the concert if I was lucky…
After I finished changing I fixed my hair and applied my make-up, noticing there was something missing with the entire outfit…after a few moments I realized that I should add some jewelry, putting on my earrings and an necklace that Len had bought me for our birthday that year.
I wasn't going to let our fight bother me, I was going to have a great time…I was going to see Hatsune Miku, afterall!

~Len~

I still felt pissed off at Rin in the morning, so I told Kaito I was going to take a walk to the park and I'd be back in a few hours…
He seemed a bit worried about what was bothering me, but didn't ask any questions, so after I got dressed I left the house dressed in disguise.
I would usually dress like my sister, Rin, fixing up my hair up exactly like she did and wearing a pair of sunglasses to cover my eyes…and it surprisingly worked. All I had to do was talk like a girl and no one had any idea that I was Kagamine Len. I wasn't as popular as I used to be, but I still was famous nevertheless.
Once I reached the relaxing environment of the city's park I sat down on a bench, opening up my notebook which I had brought with me to make some progress on the song I was currently writing.
I was easily distracted when I saw a few young kids standing around a nearby tree and chatting, "Hey…did you hear that Kiki is going to the Miku's concert? She's so lucky...I really wanted to go!" One little girl complained, "Mom said I couldn't!"
"Yeah…I hope she has fun." A different girl mumbled shyly, staring down at her brown Mary Janes. She was a very petite girl; her black hair put into two small pigtails…even I had to admit that she was absolutely adorable.
I couldn't help but to grumble to myself…even the little kids were talking about Miku. I attempted to ignore them and tried my hardest to think of new ideas…
"Hi, I'm Yuki!" I jumped in surprise when the little girl with the pigtails appeared before me, smiling brightly, "What's your name?"
"O-oh, hello! I'm Rin, nice to meet you." I smiled politely, using the first girl name that popped into my head…which just happened to be my sister's.
"Rin? That's a pretty name." Yuki sat down next to me, her brown eyes sparkling happily, "When I grow up I wanna be a singer! Just like Len!"
Did…she just say my name? I looked surprised, I didn't know I had fans THAT young, she looked about nine, "That's very nice…you know, if you keep sight in that dream…I bet you'll achieve it one day." I told her, even though I highly doubted she'd ever become a singer…almost every little girl shared that dream, and there was only a few who'd ever actually become famous. I just wanted her to leave me alone…I needed to get my song finished.
Her round eyes widened, "Really…? The other kids…say that I don't sing good." The dejected expression on her face left me feeling horrible, but then her face filled with a smile, "But…if you think I can do it, then I can!"
"How…how about you sing me a song? I'll listen." I told her, wanting to see if she actually had talent…considering the feedback she had gotten from the other children, she probably wasn't very good…but I didn't mind listening. She actually had me slightly interested now…
"Yuki! We're gonna play tag, come here!" I heard one of the little girls from earlier called out, "We'll start without you if you don't hurry!"
"O-one second!" Yuki replied, turning back to me, "Well…my dad teached me a song when I was little… I can sing that for you."
I nodded in agreement, "Yeah that works." I forgot to heighten my voice's pitch that time…and I hoped she wouldn't notice.
She took a deep breath before starting, "Stars shine again…twinkle twinkle. I wonder why they look a little sad…" Her voice was almost indescribable, it was so soft and peaceful…it made me forgot all my worries for the time being. She sounded so innocent, and somehow she reminded me of myself when I was that young. I didn't have a care in the world….I sang because it made me happy.
"The silver light moves again, twinkle twinkle…today it would move to the star again. I feel really lonely…" She paused as if she was trying to remember the lyrics, but started again quickly, "When people go back into the sky...they'll be shooting stars and leave letters in the night sky.
As she continued I realized the real meaning of the song…it described how lonely she felt, and when people died they became part of the night sky as shooting stars. It was such a peaceful song…yet so depressing at the same time.

~Rin~

Kaito drove Gumi and me to the concert later that day, and on the way the both of us conversed, "It's going to be so great!" Gumi grinned, clapping her hands together excitedly, "Thanks so much for the tickets, Rin!"
Gumi was one of the only true friends I had…the rest of the people just befriended me because I had a famous brother. "No problem! It was easy to get them! Plus…we get front row!" We had a lot of money to spend…mostly because of Len's singing.
We soon arrived at our destination, Kaito dropping us off at the casino, "You two will be okay on your own, right?" He asked us, "I can walk you guys there if you want!"
I shook my head, "That's fine, we got it!" The both of us got out of the car and I kissed my brother on the cheek, "Bye Kaito! Tell Meiko I said hi, 'kay?"
He hugged me, before waving to Gumi, "I will! Have a nice time, you two!" His face was filled with a bright smile, my brother always seemed so happy…unless we ran out of ice-cream. THAT was a totally different story…
We rushed inside the building, finding our way into a couple of crowded elevators until we finally reached our destination, our tickets allowing us access inside concert hall. The entire place was crowded with chatting and excited people, and we had to squeeze down a few flights of stairs to get to our seats which were positioned in the front of the stage, where everything was already set up…the only thing that was missing was Miku, who'd probably make her entrance in a few minutes.
Gumi was sitting at my right, and at my left I saw a very attractive young boy…he seemed to be about my age, and oddly enough…he looked a LOT like Miku, his long turquoise hair put into a neat ponytail. He must have noticed me staring for he smiled at me, my cheeks turning beet red.
"Uh…h-hello!" I stuttered nervously…he was SO cute! "Um…do you happen to be related to Miku…? I was just wondering…because you look a like her!" I giggled, saying the first thing that came to mind.
"Well, actually…I'm her brother, Mikuo!" He laughed sheepishly, scratching the back of his head, "Our parents weren't very creative with names as you can see…"
Gumi was busy looking around the immeasurable room in awe, so I continued talking, "Wow! That's so cool! Are you guys twins? You look JUST like her!" I questioned in excitement.
Mikuo nodded, "Yeah! I'm probably mistaken…but, when I first saw you…I noticed you look a lot like Len Kagamine…by any chance are you both related?" I couldn't help to think that Mikuo and me were destined to meet like this…we both were the twins of famous singers, and he was unbelievably attractive…
I grinned cheerfully, "Well…you probably won't believe me…but I'm his twin, Rin Kagamine. What a coincidence, right? We're both twins of two famous people…" My expression suddenly turned sour, "I'm not really…well, talking to him right now though…it's over something dumb."
His gaze wandered to the stage, "I…well, never get to talk to Miku much. She's visiting us after her concert here for a while…but after that, she'll be gone for a long time again. I'm really happy for her though!" He smiled sadly, "I…I was supposed to go to this concert with my girlfriend, but she couldn't make it, so I'm kinda glad I'll be able to spend some time with Miku after the concert alone."
I replayed his words repeatedly in my head…he had a…girlfriend! I felt crushed, "Oh…that's nice. I see Len a lot since…he lost some popularity because he took a break…" I lied, staring down at my feet…so much for us being destined to meet…
