My interpretation of KOKORO x KISEKI by Kagamine Rin and Len! It's probably gonna be terrible. xP I'll do my best to write it either way!
OK, I borrowed some dialogue from the manga version of the song. Go check it out, it's titled [Rin] Vocaloid song "KOKORO" - manga version - English sub. I wanted to build some depth in the story. So yeah.
I have a set date for all updates on each chapter. YAAAAAY. No, I didn't write them all in one day. Otherwise, they would all be uploaded on the same day.
HAPPY READINGS! =DDDDD
-A Few Hundred Years Ago-
A young girl, about 14 years of age, opens the door to a professor's workplace. She has blond hair, blue eyes, and fair skin. In her hands is a tray with water and eggs. She walks to the young man who bears a strong similarity to her and says in her robotic voice,
"Doctor, it is time for breakfast."
He turns around. The doctor wears a collared shirt, pants, and a white lab coat. He smiles at the young girl.
"Thank you, Rin. But please, just call me Len."
"Of course, Len."
Before he can take the tray, he falls to the ground and starts coughing violently. Rin sees the blood on his heads.
"Doctor, it is hemoptysis. It can seriously endanger a human's health."
He doesn't bother correcting Rin when he hears this His eyes widen as she continues.
"The blood is coming from the respiratory tract. Therefore, it sometimes leads to death of asphyxiation."
Len slowly stands and holds Rin in his arms tightly.
Hemoptysis...respiratory tract...leads to death...
No, he thinks, shaking his head. This can't be happening.
"Len, you need urgent care," Rin says. As if proving this, he coughs again. There is silence for a while, until Rin feels a drop of tear. Slowly, several follow.
Rin... he thinks sadly. I will dedicate my life to creating KOKORO, no matter what happens!
He feels a tug on his coat and slowly looks to Rin.
"Why do you cry?" she asks.
Len doesn't answer, for this is something that doesn't need research on. Something that he doesn't already know.
The miracle scientist, it seems, his robot...
No, Rin. He didn't want to call her a robot any more.
But no matter what he called her, she WILL be able to receive his gift to her.
-Present-
"Doctor," Rin said monotonously. She stood at the base of the large cherry blossom tree. This was where she and Len had mostly went to, having lessons about life. Each one, every moment, every second, was stored in her memory bank. When she closed her eyes, one memory began to play in her mind.
"Rin, do you see this?" Len asked, holding up two shovels and a plant. Rin nodded. "We are going to plant this tree so that it can grow."
"Is that so?" she asked.
"Yes!" he smiled. "Isn't it fascinating?"
"Please explain, Doctor."
"Rin, Rin, Rin...don't you see? This plant has a chance to grow into a large tree! A chance to live out its life and grant the world it's being here! And it is a special tree too. A cherry blossom! You remember what they are, yes? The beautiful light pink flowers, the breath taking sight... They resemble clouds since the flowers grow en masse!"
Rin nodded.
"Good! Now, will you help me?"
"No."
"Whaaaaat?" Len cried out dramatically. Rin stared off into the distance as Len turned around, dropped the shovels and cried anime tears. For a moment, the miracle scientist was devastated at this one small reply. How could Rin say no? He explained about the beauty of cherry blossoms and the importance of trees several times before? Perhaps there was a malfunction in the circuitry...
"No, no, that's not it," he mumbled, shaking his head. This was a good thing for Rin. She couldn't agree to everything he said. Maybe she could learn how to experience human emotions on her own. Satisfied with this, he turned back to Rin.
"RIN!" he cried again. In her hand was one of the shovels. Sitting before her was a little hole, no doubt dug by her. "RIN!"
He ran over to give her a hug. Unfortunately, his foot slipped on the other shovel, so he fell and landed his face on the dirt.
"Doctor, are you all right?" Rin asked. Len quickly stood up and squeezed her, but not so hard that he could crush her (like he could. Rin's a freaking robot!). "Doctor?"
"It's all right, Rin!" he exclaimed, crying joyful tears. "It's all right!"
"Why do you cry?"
"Ah, right," he sniffled. He wiped his eyes with a tissue in his pocket. "Come on, Rin, time to plant the tree!"
Rin opened her eyes from the memory. She decided on something.
She took one look at the building behind her, the building that once held the miracle scientist, and turned back to the cherry blossom tree. She clasped her hands together and thought this:
I want to know what he was working on, what he was creating until he died.
It was a program he made for her, she remembered. Something that he had been working for so many years. She remembered the name.
KOKORO.
There you go, the beginning of the worst thing you have ever read. Maybe? I don't know!
Next update is 8/16/11! I promise!
