The soft glow from the light of the wall gently illuminated Miku's small box. She looked up from gazing at her feet, and looked out the glass wall of her box. It was night and the large clock that stood in the park her box was located in read 10:20 pm on June 22nd, 3042. Right in front of her box a couple was arguing. They couldn't see Miku through the glass, for it was a one-way mirror. Nor could Miku actually hear the arguing, for her box was sound proof. The bright moon illuminated the arguing couple, and the girl turned and began fixing an eyelash in the glass.
"You're seriously doing that? Even when we're arguing? I told you this is how vain and selfish you are!" The boy screamed.
"Well excuse me! The eyelash was bothering me. I was just adjusting it." The girl replied annoyed.
"You know what? I'm done okay? Just go back to boyfriend number whatever and leave me the fuck alone!" His face was strained in anger.
"Stop being so cruel! How many times do I have to tell you? He was my ex! E-X." She replied fixing her lip gloss.
The boy raised his hand and slapped the girl across the face, and walked off. The girl stood there dumbfound as if she had only just realized her selfishness. She put her forehead to the glass of Miku's box and started to cry.
"Sleeping Beauty..." The girl read as she stared down at the ground.
Those were the words engraved on the ground around her box.
"I've always wondered why there was this mirror here." The girl said placing her hand to the glass.
It was just a 10 by 10 foot piece of glass stuck in a wall of concrete in New Song park. But of course the glass was one of the walls in Miku's box. The girl soon walked, away wiping away her tears.
Miku examined the walls of her "test box" the glowing blue wall had gentle red and green squares that slowly faded in and out. The floor was a shiny cold white. She looked down at her blurry reflection in the floor and sighed. Behind her was a large screen that took up the entire wall. On it, it flashed pictures of the outside world, the swish of leaves on a tree, two joined hands swinging back and forth, a little boy running to a little girl on a hill. On the other two walls there were eight television screens. Four per wall. On her right side, the top screen showed someone's eye blinking, another showed grass swaying on a hill, the next showed a basketball game, and the bottom screen showed green moss. On the wall opposite of it, the top screen showed some yellow fish swimming around, the next was just a blue screen, the third a plasma ball sitting on a wooden table, and the last showed a waterfall on a grassy mountain.
Miku had been in this box for five years now. Everyday watching people walk past, and lean against the box, and everyday she would see her fiancee, Kaito, press his hand covered in scars against the glass. The last train of the night gently glided on it's rails high above the park. New Song park was one of the most beautiful places Miku had ever seen, and the city it was located in, Crypton, was a utopia.
Miku shifted in her seat, gently tugging at the wires attached to her fingers. The golden arm bands that were placed on the top of each of her arm gently clinked against the sleek white chair she had been confined to for the past five years. The arm bands had wires coming out of them that led down to the floor. And coming straight of of Miku's back was a few other wires and two large metal tubes. Those were on of the many things that kept Miku from leaving the chair. Her neat, white dress, which was once her wedding gown, scratched against itself, and her knee high white high-heeled boots, clicked against the floor.
It was that time of the day again. The time she always recalled her first day in this "test box".
Miku opened her eyes, and looked at the strange room around her. What happened? Oh yeah the explosion in the Glass Cathedral. But what was she doing here? Suddenly a robotic female voice played out.
"Hello test subject 0003. Name Hatsune Miku. After a tragic accident, you have been luckily chosen as the third test subject of the Preservation Project. The wires coming out of you are all part of the test, and you will remain here until you die. You shall not worry about things like eating, showering, or using the bathroom. For that has all been taken care of. The only thing you have to do this whole testing period is breathe in this beautiful fresh air, and leave yourself to your thoughts. This is the only message you will receive. Happy testing!"
Miku gazed around the box. Her fiancee must have done this. He was a scientist on the Preservation Project. A project that stuck people who were on the edge of death into these weird chambers and monitored them 24/7 until the day they die, which was predicted at twenty years.
She had never approved or disapproved of what her fiancee did. In fact she was one of the very few people who wasn't on part of the Preservation Project's team who knew about it. Another thing was the team had this weird habit of sticking the test subjects in weird places. Her fiancee had told her the first test subject was beneath Melody Plaza, an area not far from New Song park where many people walked to get to school, work, or a store. One day, she remembered staring at the sidewalk of Melody Plaza as she walked to work. It wasn't long until she saw that one of the stone tiles of the sidewalk was not stone, but a mirror. Around it, there was a small metal plate that read, "Girl in Chains". It wasn't until Miku had found herself in her own test box, did she realize that the "Girl in Chains" must be the first test subject. She often found herself thinking about that girl. Why was she dubbed "Girl in Chains"? Was she actually in chains? What happened to her? Was her test chamber nice? How did she find herself on the edge of death? Miku never really elaborated on those questions. But it was one of the very few things she though in the test chamber she thought about, and the most common.
One of the first things Miku noticed about her test chamber was the large window wall that she looked out of was actually a one-way mirror. She discovered it after she saw many girls touching up their make up and fixing their hair in it. She also discovered her box was sound proof. Since she could never hear anything from outside, nor did anyone even bat an eyelash when she screamed at the top of her lungs to test if her theory was true. But everyday her fiancee visited her. Putting his scarred hand to the window, and gently calling her name. If he looked hard enough, he could see the figure of a girl sitting down.
The test box was completely silent. To break the silence Miku sang a lot. It was the only thing she could really actually do. She use to play finger games, but soon stopped. Aside from thinking about the "Girl in Chains" she thought about the day she was almost killed, her wedding day. She lifted a hand to her face. It was still as soft and porcelain smooth as that day. She no longer smelled like peaches and apples though, in fact she had no smell at all. Even when she inhaled hard, there was not a single scent in the box. There never had been. Her feet never fell asleep, she never had to eat or drink, or use the bathroom, or shower, her hair stayed as perfect as it did before she got into the accident, and not a single trace of dirt or grease ever appeared on her.
Miku never wanted to think about it, but she was actually very lonely. She wanted to be with her fiancee, Kaito all the time. She hoped one day she would be able to break out and touch Kaito one more time.
This will be divided into 3 chapters. I will finish it today if I get the chance. Please review and critique. (I'm always open to critique to improve my writing!) Thanks!
