Chapter 1: New Kid
I am Rin Kagamine, age 14, and in the 8th grade with my twin brother Len Kagamine. We go to a normal middle school just like normal kids. Sure some people think of us differently since we work at Crypton Studios and record music. Len and I are known as the Kagamine twins in a group called Vocaloid. We also work with our friend Miku Hatsune.
I wear a uniform most of the time, white shirt, yellow ribbon around my neck, black arm warmers, black short shorts, black leg warmers, and a white bow in my hair. I have blond hair, blue eyes, and I'm pretty cute if I do say so myself.
My brother Len wears a white shirt, yellow tie, black shorts, black arm and leg warmers, and white headphones. He also had blond hair and blue eyes. He must be cute because he is dating someone. Remember Miku, yeah there dating. I can't believe my twin has a girlfriend and I don't have a boyfriend.
It's ok though it's not like I'll die if I don't get a boyfriend anytime soon. "Ok class I would like you to look up here and greet our new student. Please come in and introduce yourself." Said the teacher.
The door flew open and a kid with purple hair stepped through. "What's up I'm Mura. I'd rather skip long formalities." He said.
"Young man why are you out of uniform?" barked the teacher.
"I'm not. Technically this is the same uniform just I died the colors to more of my style. So I'm not breaking any rules. Yet." He said in a calm and collective voice.
"Fine go sit next to Rin. We will send a new uniform tomorrow and it better be the right color." Commanded the teacher.
"You expect me to know who Rin is on my own?" he questioned in a sly voice.
"Rin Kagamine please raise…" He grumbled before Mura cut him off.
"But I do know who Rin is I mean I do listen to Vocaloid." He grinned.
The teacher went into the hall to blow off some steam and Mura started walking towards me. I thought he would ask me so many questions and drool over me like an obsessed fan boy. He continued to walk towards to me then sat in the desk next to me. He pulled out a small booklet and grabbed a pen and started to wright. He did the opposite of what I thought he would do.
He now grabbed out a calculator but continued to look at the booklet. Now my curiosity was peeked. What in the hell is he doing? I see my parents do that all the time and they say that it is bills and stuff, but why would a fourteen year old be paying bills. I finally got up and asked him, "Hey what are you doing Mura?" I asked it quietly so I guess he didn't hear me. "Hey what are you doing Mura?" I asked again but louder.
"Oh, hi I'm just doing some work before the teacher gets back." He said looking away from the booklet. He closed it and put his supplies away. "So did you want something?" He asked with a small grin.
"Oh, well we haven't had a new student in a while and I figured you must be lonely and thought maybe you wanted to talk. Besides you confused me. Most new kids go haywire when they see me and Len in their class but you just acted like the rest of the people that already knew us." I said.
"Yeah well it's cool that I'm in a class with the lovely and talented Rin Kagamine don't get me wrong, but you see I'm not like everyone trust me I have enough troubles don't need to go screwing up my reputation by losing my cool. Besides I'm not a fan boy I'm just a big music lover." He answered with a calm voice.
"Huh well how about I give you a tour of the school after lunch?" I offered.
"Thanks I'd love to." He said as the teacher walked back into the classroom. I hopped over and into my desk. The teacher began to talk but I kinda drowned it out and looked out the window. Mura was kinda cool. He wore the same kind of outfit as Len due to customary school uniform, but he dyed everything that was meant to be yellow, purple. He had green eyes and spikey purple hair.
Class ended pretty quickly now it was time for lunch and to show Mura around the school. "Come on Mura you ready?" I asked. He nodded; we grabbed our stuff and headed outside for lunch. He had a box lunch filled with sushi and rice and he grabbed a soda from a vending machine. I loved sushi, but all I got for lunch was a sandwich, chips, an orange (my fave), and a soda. He broke his chop sticks in half and picked up a piece of sushi. He popped it in his mouth and munched down on it. I took my orange and started to peel it. I liked to eat my oranges slice by slice. I took the first slice and munched on it. I looked over to him and he then made eye contact with me. He gave me a smile and now ate some rice.
We continued to eat and then he broke his chop sticks in half again to where there were four pieces. He picked up a piece of sushi with the two back pieces. "Here you've been eyeballing my sushi the entire time. Here have some I don't mind." Mura said holding a piece of sushi in front of my face.
"Oh no please I don't…" I tried to say before I was cut off by him placing a piece of sushi in my mouth and leaving the chop sticks in my mouth. I munched on it and removed the chop stick pieces.
"There, good right?" He asked moving the box lunch between us.
"No I can't continue to eat your food." I said trying to push his food back to him.
He pushed it back in between us and said, "No please I insist. How about I take an orange slice for every two pieces of sushi?" He asked.
"Hmm, let me think." I toyed while taking another piece of sushi from his box and ate it. He picked up an orange slice with his chop stick half and stuck it in his mouth. We sat there and finished off our lunch, well more precise his lunch I threw the rest of mine away. "Ok time for the tour." I said standing up from the bench and giving him a smile.
"Right." He said throwing the box in the trash. "Hey I know I really good place to eat we should go tomorrow if you don't mind?" He asked gulping down the rest of his soda.
"Sure, but how close is it?" I asked.
"Not too far we will have enough time, trust me." He said with a sly smile.
"Ok. It's a date." I said not realizing what I said.
"Great, I'm glad I made a good friend like you." He said opening the door waving me though. I had on a small blush, but I didn't let him see it. I showed him where all his classes would be. Unfortunately we only had two classes together. Every time we didn't have a class I put on a pouty face and we both laughed.
"This is the stage this is where me and my friends hang out. So time to introduce yourself." I said pushing Mura through the doors. Miku, Len, Kaito, and Luka looked at us.
"Sup, I'm Mura the new kid." He introduced.
"Oh yeah you pissed off the teacher during class. Your awesome dude." Said Len who was leaning against a chair.
"Oh it was nothing I believe that it is my reason for being on earth. Just to piss people off." Mura joked. Everyone laughed.
"Nice to meet you. Miku Hatsune at your service. Any friend of Rin's is a friend o' mine." Said Miku giving off a little salute.
"I know I listen to Vocaloid. Not a fan boy just a music lover." Mura assured.
"Oh so you know who I am right?" asked Luka.
"Yup you're Luka Megurine." Mura answered.
"And me?" asked Kaito.
"Yeah, but I haven't listened to anything before Miku, Sorry." Mura apologized.
"No need, can't expect everyone to listen to me." Kaito said keeping his cool.
"Oh hey sis is he ready for initiation?" asked Len.
"Oh right I forgot to tell him." I remembered.
"Initiation?" asked Mura with an adorable confused face.
"Yeah to be a part of our group you have to sing." I said.
"Aw, man." Mura said looking down at the ground.
"What you can't sing? And you call yourself a music lover." Teased Kaito.
"No I can sing. It's just a pain to do so." Retorted Mura pulling out a red and black headset out of his bag. "I'm aloud to use the speakers to play the tune right?" Asked Mura. We nodded then he said, "Rin get up here I don't sing alone." Mura said starting the tune to Trick and Treat. I jumped up on stage while grabbing my white headset.
Deep, deep within the fog, a captivating voice echoes
Come, come, until you're deeper into the heart of the forest
Hurry, hurry, you'll only get closer if you're quick
Come, come, now isn't it fun?
Let the games begin
The cinnamon stick is a magic wand
With just one flick the syrup will swell
Into a dream so sweet you'll forget you knew bitterness
Sheltered by the canopy
You'll fall deep asleep
It's okay to be lost, mesmerized by mirages
If you loosen the blindfold it won't be fun
Watch your step! I'll take you by the hand
So, right away
Entrust yourself to me
For some time the blade of doubt has been fading in and out
The mercy of love has no place here
Through a slit in the blindfold you peeped
And saw the shadows cast by the lantern
Suddenly, your hair stands on end
My my, what a wicked child! You're already awake?
If the blindfold came off, then shall I blind you?
Come now, smile! Let's see that precious face
Slip back into your skin
and go back to the show
"...Hey, give me some?"
What happened to make your eyes so wide? Your body is trembling
Shall I bring you some warm milk?
Now now, come inside! It's very warm in here
The stuff from your pockets will be enough in return
Give me something, hurry, hurry
Hey c'mon, right away
Abandon the notion of having a choice
We'll lure you in with lies, so just slurp the sweet honey
Give me some, hey now, hand it over, right now
Right now!
"Good enough for yeah?" he asked playfully.
"Dude you should come work for Crypton Studio's with us." Said Len dumbfounded.
"I second that." Said Miku.
"Yeah." Was all Kaito could say.
Luka just nodded. "Thanks, but I don't think I want to. You see I like to sing, but if I were to ever sing in front of a huge audience I just couldn't do it, stage fright." Mura said. I can't believe it, he had stage freight. I wasn't going to make fun of him actually no one was. If anything I kinda felt bad for him.
The rest of the day was normal. I saw Mura in history right before school ended. Then we said our goodbyes and me and Len headed to Crypton Studio. We just started making a music video, but it didn't take so long to meet our quota for the day. Me and Len walked to a movie rental shop to get a new movie to watch. We walked in the front door and I immediately see my purple hair new friend. He was behind the counter checking out someone's movie. "Finally my shift is over." I heard him say as I approached him. He threw off his blue work vest and walked out from behind the checkout booth. "Oh, hi Rin can we keep this short I have to go somewhere?" He asked.
"Oh well I just wanted to say hi and do you know any good movies?" I asked.
"Oh, well I would recommend Limitless for a movie, but if you're looking an anime I recommend Sands of Destruction. Well I got to go so bye Rin." He said running off in a hurry. I smiled and walked back over to Len.
"So movie or anime?" I asked.
"Anime." He answered.
"Ok well Mura recommended Sands of Destruction." I said picking up the case.
The next day:
Len left without me today to go meet up with Miku. So I just walked to school in silence. I was a quarter of the way there and guess who I saw. "Mura how you doing?" I asked running up to my new friend.
"Huh, oh hi Rin. I'm very tired and I really don't want to go to school, but I'll survive." He responded with a light grin.
"Where do you live? Cause if it is close to where I live we could walk to school every day." I said with a smile on my face.
"I live down back a couple blocks from here." He responded looking at his uniform.
"What wrong you look upset?" I worried.
"Oh nothing I just hate this uniform. Yellow and I don't really go together." He said with a sheepish smile.
"Well I think you look good in yellow." I said making the cool headed Mura blush.
We walked to school in silence. It wasn't an awkward silence but more of a soothing silence. When we reached to school we went our own ways until 3rd hour. I was mainly looking forward to lunch cause then he was treating me to some food. I hope they have oranges.
The classes went by really fast and it was already time for lunch. I was heading towards the door to see Mura had already beaten me there and was leaning against the wall. "Ready to go?" He asked opening the door for me as if I were some kind of princess.
"Yup. So what kinda place is this?" I asked curiously.
"A sushi bar. So eat as much as you like my treat as you already know." He said with his sly smile.
When we arrived the first thing I noticed was how much food was there. They had so much sushi. The best part was, they did have oranges. It is like I died and Mura brought me to food heaven. We picked out a table and went to get our food. Good thing our next class is a free period. I like being smart, because me and Mura are so smart they let us take one class out of our schedule. Other kids did this too, but we were smart and choose the one after lunch.
"So Rin, what is it like to work at Crypton?" He asked munching on some rice.
"Well sometimes the hours are way too long, and we do get on each other's nerve, but for the most part it is fun. What about you why are you working, don't your parents have jobs?" I asked taking a bit of sushi.
He set down the sushi he had picked up with his chop sticks and looked down at the table. "Um I don't have any parents." He answered. I was shocked. I dropped the sushi that I had picked up. "I need money to provide for myself." He said trying to put on a weak smile.
"Then why don't you see if Crypton will hire you. You'll have plenty of money." I tried to force him to take the job.
"No please can we move on to a new subject?" He asked. I nodded and we started to just talk about random thing.
"I'm full, ready to go Mura?" I asked standing up.
"Yeah let's go." He said paying for the meal. We walked back to the school, but didn't get far.
"Well if it isn't our friend Mura. You got our money yet punk?" Asked a man with four other guys behind him.
"I'll get it to you next week now leave me alone." He said grabbing my arm and walking through them.
"I don't think so, you see you owe us a lot of money and it is time to pay up brat." Said the man picking up Mura by the collar. "Or that girl can pleasure your debt away." He said as one of his lackeys took me by the arms.
"Mura, Help!" I screamed.
"Just sit still girl I'll be gentle." Said one of the thugs stepping in front of me.
"I'm sorry." I heard Mura whisper.
Mura's point of view:
"I'm sorry." I said. She looked scared as hell. "I'm sorry you'll have to see this." I said kneeing the man that had picked me up in the gut. I noticed he had a gun, so I stole it right out of his pocket in one swift motion. I shot him twice in the shoulders to make sure he couldn't use either of them. Then I broke his leg so he would fall to the ground. I picked him up by the hair and held the gun to his head. "Let her go or your boss dies." I commanded.
"Mura, what did you…" She stuttered.
Rin's point of view:
"Mura, what did you…" I tried to speak, but there was blood on the ground and on his face. I screamed in fear.
Everything went black and I heard a voice, "Hey Rin wake up." I woke up in shock to see that I had fallen asleep during class and Mura woke me up to go. "Hey come on let's get some food."
"What a nightmare." I said standing up. "Mura do you live alone?" I asked. I had to make sure.
"No." He said pulling me out the door. Good so it was just my imagination. The day was normal, and we went to ramen shop for lunch. We said our goodbyes at the end of the day and we both headed to our jobs.
"So did you have fun today?" Asked Len.
"Yeah I did." I said skipping to Crypton studios.
A/N: Yeah first chapter done. Sory if you don't like it or some facts aren't right, but to bad I'm sticking to it.
