Hall of Mirrors
"Are you sure we should be doing this?" Gumi asked, "I mean we could turn back now!"
"I-I agree with Gumi, this place is really creepy!" Miku said, trembling all over with fear.
"Ah come on, you big babies! We accepted the dare and there's no way I'm giving up my road roller or my oranges for a whole month!" Rin exclaimed, her eyes gleaming with determination.
Before all of this, Miku, Gumi, Rin, Mikuo, and Gumo were teased at how they never took things seriously and needed a good scare. Because of that, they accepted a dare about having to investigate an abandoned hall of mirrors that was said to have a Demon living in it in the middle of the night. If they turn back, they have to give up their most precious items for a month. Len had begged Rin not to go, and for the first time in his life, didn't give in to Rin's pleas or demands. Of course, being the stubborn girl she was, she went anyway.
But this time, without Len, making her feel a little bit scared. Although, she did have Mikuo.
"Yeah and there's no way I'm giving up my leeks for a month either just because of a silly Demon rumor!" Mikuo added.
"Or my carrots!" Gumo whined.
"Right. So you willing to give up your most precious items just because you're both scared?" Rin asked.
Miku and Gumi looked with worried expressions before finally sighing in defeat.
"No..." They mumbled with their heads bowed.
"Alright, then we're going inside!"
Rin opened the door causing it to make an eerie creaking noise that sent chills down everyone's spines. They all stared down the dim corridor made entirely of mirrors. Even the floor was a giant mirror!
For a while, no one said a word until Mikuo decided to break the silence, grinning to the others.
"ECHO!" He yelled, causing the word to bounce off the mirror walls.
"Hey, let me try that!" Gumo said, "MIKUO'S AN IDIOT!" once again, the words bounced off the mirrors.
"Hey!" Mikuo shouted causing the others to laugh.
"Okay, let's just go in and get this over with!" Miku said starting to feel a teensy bit more confident.
"Yeah, Miku's right." Mikuo said, nodding. He thought he heard a giggle, but thought it was Miku so he ignored it.
Everyone else agreed and entered the hall of mirrors. The door automatically closed behind them causing the others to jump.
"I-it was probably just the wind." Gumi said.
"R-right!" Gumo said nodding his head as they continued to walk deeper into the maze, taking any path at random.
Although, they all knew that they were indoors, and there was no wind, making them all much more scared.
A few minutes later
"Hey, didn't we pass through here already?" Gumi asked, looking around.
"What makes you say that?" Miku asked.
"Gumo's sentence 'Gumo was here' on the mirror. We've been here!" Gumi exclaimed, looking at Gumo's sloppy handwriting and her doodle of a carrot.
"Alright that settles it! We're going in circles!" Rin yelled, clearly frustrated.
"Tell us something we don't know." Mikuo muttered, rolling his eyes.
"Let's go down that path, I'm pretty sure we didn't go that way yet." Miku suggested pointing at a path that was wider than the others.
"Weird, I didn't see that hall last time we past here. Have you guys?" Rin asked.
The others shook their heads. "Oh well doesn't matter! Let's just go!" She then said and walked down the path.
The others shrugged and followed the blonde haired girl.
"Jeez, how long is this path?" Mikuo groaned after a few minutes of walking down the same path.
The others shrugged and kept on walking. Miku was behind the rest of the group and noticed something strange about a certain mirror; her reflection was going the opposite way. Confused, she walked back to the mirror and observed her reflection for a while. She was just about to conclude that it was just her imagination until the reflection smiled psychotically and changed its form. The teal haired girl let out a terrified scream that alarmed the other VOCALOIDS.
"Miku, what's wrong?" Mikuo asked his sister who was almost as pale as a ghost.
"M-m-m-m-my r-r-r-ref-flection!" She answered in a whisper pointing at the mirror.
The others gasped. In the mirror was a life sized rag doll that resembled a girl about nine years old with black hair in pigtails flashing a psychotic smile.
"Fufufufu~ my my, looks like we have visitors! Why don't you come over to this side and play with me? I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun!" The reflection said in a sweet yet menacing voice.
"Th-thanks, b-but we'll pass." Rin answered, starting to feel less brave every minute.
I mean who wouldn't be scared when a doll version of a nine year old in a mirror starts smiling psychotically and talking?
The reflection then frowned as if she was disappointed. Blood poured out of her button eyes as if they were her tears and she lowered her head,
"Oh. I-I see..." She mumbled, looking very upset.
Suddenly her frown turned back into a psychotic smile, "Ah well, looks like I'll just have to do this by force!" She said and started to laugh psychotically again.
It reminded Miku way too much of Tei for comfort. God, yesterday was horrible when Master had her come over for a visit…
"W-wait! What do you mean?" Gumo yelled as the girl start to disappear.
The girl just laughed harder as the mirror turned back to normal. The laugh was still loud and clear and seemed to come from every direction. Miku, traumatized by what just happened, mindlessly stumbled backwards and bumped into another mirror. Suddenly, two hands shot out of the mirror and grabbed Miku by the throat and the mouth. Before anyone could react, she was pulled in but not before she let out a muffled scream.
XxxxxXxxxxx
Back at the VOCALOID mansion, everyone was asleep dreaming of their favorite character items. That is, everyone except one VOCALOID. A boy tossed and turned in his banana shaped bed, cold sweat trickled down his face and started to mumble in his sleep. "M-Miku..."
XxxxxXxxxxx
The remaining VOCALOIDS were stunned, they couldn't believe their eyes on what they just saw and didn't want to. Suddenly, just as soon as Miku disappeared through the mirror, she reappeared on the other side with her back turned to the others and seemed to be staring at her shoes. Mikuo gasped, relief flooding over him as he ran to the mirror, pounding on it with his fists.
"MIKU! CAN YOU HEAR ME? IT'S ME, MIKUO!" He shouted and pounded harder on the glass hoping the noise reached the teal girl's ears.
It must have, for Miku raised her head,
"Mikuo? Is that really you?" she asked, her voice sounded surprisingly calm.
"Miku! Oh thank God you can hear me!" Mikuo said, relieved smile on his face as he started to chuckle nervously. He stopped dead when Miku started giggling which eventually turned into a psychotic laughter that sounded similar to the girl's.
"Thank god that you can hear my voice, too, because now..." she slowly turned around, "now I can..." The group of VOCALOIDS gasped in horror at what they saw.
Miku now looked like a rag doll also similar to the nine year old girl with a psychotic smile and black button eyes. "Now I can invite you to play with us!" she said with a corrupted giggle.
Mikuo slowly backed up, horrified at what his sister had become. The rag doll Miku started to look confused at this.
"What's wrong, Mikuo? Weren't you relieved that I was okay a second ago?" she asked, her voice filled with malice as she tilted her head to the side.
"Y-you're not Miku! Where is she? What did you do to her?" Mikuo yelled his question.
Miku looked even more confused.
"Whatever do you mean, dear brother? I'm Miku!" She replied happily.
"No, you're not her! The real Miku never acts like this! Now, give me back my sister!" He demanded.
The rag doll paused for a bit, and then, her button eyes poured out the same bloody tears.
"Oh woe is me! Brother doesn't recognize me!" she cried.
The nine year old girl appeared and took Miku's hand,
"Don't worry nee-san! Maybe he'll understand after he plays with us! Fufufu~" the girl said.
Blood stopped pouring out and the doll's face once again had a psychotic smile,
"That's right, why don't you play with us, nii-san~!" The Miku doll said as a hand went past the mirror and was about to grab Mikuo when Rin grabbed his hand and started running along with Gumo and Gumi.
They ran for about a few feet when Mikuo fell right through the mirrored floor like it was liquid, with Rin still holding on to him.
"Mikuo!" Rin yelled holding tightly to the one she had a crush on.
The green haired twins came to try and help Rin pull the teal haired boy out. Unfortunately, he was being sucked in no matter what.
"Rin let go or you'll be pulled in, too!" Mikuo shouted as he sank further into the mirror, but that only made Rin hold on tighter.
"I won't let go because you're my friend and...and...I-I love you!" Rin said with tears in her eyes.
Mikuo smiled sadly.
"I love you too...Rin-chan." He managed to lean out of the mirror just enough to kiss Rin goodbye before forcing her hand away from him and sinking into the mirror.
"Mikuo! No! This is a joke, right? It has to be a joke!" Rin said looking at the green haired twins with hopeful eyes.
No one made contact with them. Rin broke into tears and started pounding on the glass like Mikuo did.
"MIKUO YOU IDIOT, WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO THAT?" No response. "I can't take this anymore! Just let me out of here!" she added, about to break down.
Suddenly she felt a sharp pain go across her face. Rin looked up to see a frustrated Gumo standing in front of her.
"Rin, pull yourself together! Miku and Mikuo are gone! There's nothing we can do about that! Obviously, crying and moping isn't going to help either!" He said with a stern voice.
That made Rin come back to her senses. She wiped away her tears and stood up.
"Thanks Gumo, I really needed that." she said
"No problem. You would've done-" He was interrupted when the whole place started shaking.
Almost immediately, a giant wave emerged from the floor and was rushing towards them. The trio looked at each other and shouted, "RUN!" and started running at top speed down the corridor.
They ran as fast as they can to avoid getting caught by that wave until a hand came out and grabbed Gumo by the ankle causing him to fall face first onto the cold hard floor. Gumi, noticing this, stopped and turned around.
"Gumo!" she screamed and was about to run back to him if it weren't for Rin having a death grip on her wrist. "LET ME GO! LET ME GO!" she kept yelling at Rin.
Gumo, noticing, yelled,
"GO, JUST RUN! DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME!" Gumi, hearing this, stopped struggling, "but Gumo-"
"JUST GET OUT OF HERE!" were the last words he said before the wave swallowed him and he disappeared.
"GUMO! GUMO!" Gumi screamed still attempting to run to the place where Gumo had disappeared.
"He's gone, Gumi, there's nothing we can do about it." Rin said quietly.
"Fufufufu~ 3 down, 2 to go! This game is so fun!" the girl's voice said happily.
"Just who the hell are you and why are you doing this?" Rin said, very annoyed.
The girl stopped laughing,
"I'm lonely. I don't have any friends. So that's why I'm making some right now! Why don't you join us? You're missing out on everything! We'll play forever and ever and never get tired, hungry, or age! So that will mean we're practically toys! Fufufu~" Then, three figures appeared in a mirror in front of them.
Gumi and Rin's eyes widened when they realized who they were,
"MIKU, GUMO, MIKUO!" Rin shouted horrified that they became just like Miku.
"Wh-what happened to all of you?" Gumi asked quietly.
"Yuki-chan turned us into what we are now! At first it hurts a lot but then it was painless. Now, we can play forever and ever! Isn't that great?" Miku said with a sweet yet dark voice.
"Y-Yuki...chan?" Rin asked.
They all smiled innocently,
"That's right! Yuki-chan, our new friend! She was the one who invited all of us to play!" Mikuo answered cheerfully.
"You should join us Rin-chan!" Gumo said.
"That's right, you should join us!" Mikuo and Miku said at the same time.
"Join us, Rin-chan!" they said altogether as three pairs of hands sprung out of the mirror aiming for Rin.
"RIN!" Gumi yelled and pushed her out of the way only to get caught herself.
"GUMI!" Rin shouted as her best friend was getting dragged closer and closer to the mirror.
"D-don't worry about me Rin! Just save yourself!" Gumi said.
Just as she was about to be pulled in, she added, "Besides, I get to be with my brother." Rin, eyes wide and trembling furiously clutched her head and fell to her knees crying uncontrollably.
"Th-this is j-j-just a b-bad dream right? I-I'm going to wake up the next morning to see everyone still here right? Right? I-it's just a dream! It's just a dream!" she said to herself.
She then started to laugh crazily. "That's right; it's all just a dream! That means none of this is real! NONE OF THIS IS REAL!" she yelled as she punched the glass as hard as she could, causing the mirror to break.
She laughed harder and harder with each mirror she shattered until one shard grazed her arm, causing her to wince in pain and stare at the bleeding cut with wide eyes. She fell to the ground letting tears escape.
"I-it's not a dream...if it was then I shouldn't feel pain..." Rin let out a cry of frustration and slammed her fists on the broken mirror floor "I'll never see them again…" she said quietly.
"Of course you will!" The girl known as Yuki exclaimed, "Follow me and I can take you to them! They really miss you and want you to join us! We'll be best friends forever! Wouldn't you like that very much Onee-san?" Yuki asked extending her hand out to Rin, gesturing her to take it.
She frowned when Rin hesitated. She then spoke with a hypnotic voice,
"Forget about all your worries and fears. Leave them behind in this world and come over to this world where no one will ever worry about a thing. It's paradise! I'm sure that everyone will be overjoyed to see you, and so will you." Rin's eyes suddenly turned blank and glazed over as she turned her head to Yuki,
"Really? Is that true?" She said in a very calm voice.
Yuki smiled an innocent smile,
"Of course! We'll all be one big happy family, and that includes you, too! Leave this world tainted with darkness and come over to this clean and pure paradise where everyone will be waiting for you with open arms! Doesn't that sound nice?" She asked knowing Rin will agree no matter what, once she was under her spell.
"Yes...I guess that's true...nobody cares about me in this world anyways..." Rin said in a flat monotone voice as she got up and took Yuki's tiny fabric hand.
"Shall we go now?" Yuki asked her.
Rin nodded her head, ignoring a voice begging her to snap out of the trance she was in and run. Yuki smiled and led Rin into the mirror.
"Looks like I'll be seeing you very soon, Mikuo..." Rin thought as she turned into one of them.
XxxxxXxxxxx
Back at the VOCALOID mansion, Len kept tossing and turning in his bed,
"Rin...snap out of it...you're under her spell...hurry up and run..." He mumbled.
He already saw horrible images of Miku, Mikuo, Gumo, and Gumi getting drawn into a mirror and turning into rag dolls. The last thing he wanted was for Rin to turn into one of them. His pleading was futile when Rin still had a blank vacant look in her eyes as she took the young girl's tiny fabric hand and was led into the mirror where she turned into one of them.
"Rin..No...Rin...RIIIIINN!" He yelled from the top of his lungs as he got into a sitting position.
He breathed heavily as cold sweat trickled down his face. A few seconds later, all the VOCALOIDS who were woken up by his yelling came into his room.
"Len, what's wrong?" Luka asked looking very worried.
Len looked traumatized and was shaking furiously.
"R-Rin...where's Rin and everyone else who investigated the hall of mirrors?"
"Len, why are you asking th-" Meiko started to asked
"WHERE ARE THEY?" Len screamed, tears falling down his face.
All the VOCALOIDS looked at each other,
"They haven't returned yet, Len." Kaito replied.
Len lowered his head, the shadows of his bangs covered his eyes as he gripped his bed sheets,
"Oh..." He mumbled a few more tears escaping his eyes.
"Len, why are you asking this? Are you saying we should go look for them?" Meiko asked, that only made him grip the bed sheets tighter.
"Don't bother." He mumbled drawing in a shaky breath.
"Why?" Asked Teto, getting more worried about the other VOCALOIDS along with everyone else.
"B-because...because..." Len started, tears were now pouring down like a waterfall.
"Because of what, Len? SPIT IT OUT!" Meiko shouted causing the blonde VOCALOID to flinch.
"Because…they were taken away by the Demon."
