A/N: Yup, I've been wanting to do a Vocaloid fanfic in forever! This one features a whole bunch of characters. I haven't decided the plot or anything, since I wanted it to be free, so I can't say just what is going to happen. It's going to be an ongoing fanfic, so yes it could end up being pretty long. ^^
Hope you enjoy! Rate and review please :3
Chapter One
Watashi wa Akita Neru desu!
Dear Mum,
This is the last time I'll be able to write to you until the holidays come again. A lot has happened since I last wrote, and I do apologise for not writing in a long time.
A couple of months ago, if you'll remember, I told you that Miku wanted to go and audition Boukaroido Koutou; the really posh boarding school dedicated to performing. She's been nagging Kiku and I to go with her, and eventually we both caved. The audition was last month, and we all went; I dragged along Yowane-san as well {do you remember her? She's been my best friend since elementary school; the one with really long gray hair, always tied in a ponytail with a ridiculously big black ribbon.}. After all, the more the merrier, right? So Miku auditioned, and she was great, but then the teachers turned to us three and asked if we were going to audition too! Kiku and I thought it was hilarious, so after a bit of convincing, the three of us all auditioned too. I'm telling you, the looks on their faces was great!
And then came the shocker. A week after that audition, every single one of us got a letter of acceptance. I mean, Kiku, Yowane-san and I didn't even want to go! Miku was thrilled, of course, and the only good thing is that at least we'll all be together. Sort of.
I don't know what it'll be like, since I barely looked at the brochure Miku had and now she refuses to lend it to me, saying she wants it to be a surprise. Ugh.
I do feel bad for Kiku – she'd only just started settling in to her school last year, and now she's got to move again. Hopefully with Miku and I around, she'll be happier here though, so maybe it's not all bad.
Anyway, I'm leaving tomorrow. Wish me much luck Mama, because I'll be wishing you the same.
Much love,
Neru~
I finished writing the letter, and sank back onto my pillows, reading it through quickly and checking for any mistakes. After finding none, I enveloped it and addressed it, ready to post tomorrow morning.
I'm pretty sure that my cousins must be asleep now; after all, it is almost one in the morning. But strangely, I don't feel tired at all – and trust me, that is very weird. I laid there for a few minutes, before getting up and deciding to check through my suitcases to make sure that I'd packed everything.
I rifled through, checking. Since it was boarding school, we each had to take a whole load of stuff. In my first suitcase, I had packed all my technical items; an alarm clock, my camera and laptop, a flashlight {that was Miku's brother Mikuo's suggestion}, a hairdryer, my iPod docking station, my iPod and a couple of sets of earphones, and all the plugs and chargers to go with my laptop, phone and music player. I'd also been told by Miku to pack a few spare hangers, and I'd managed to fit in all my stationary; namely just a few notebooks, pens, pencils, scissors, erasers, my bag, some folders, rulers, and a stapler with staples. I'd finished off the suitcase with just some of the things I liked; a few DVDs, books, and some framed photos. My second suitcase was completely dedicated to clothing; all of my uniform {which took up a fair amount of space, since I had around half a dozen sets of winter and summer uniform, and then a couple of sets of physical education uniform}, some t-shirts and tops of different sleeve lengths, some jeans and trousers, skirts, cardigans and sweaters, all of my underwear and hosiery, plus a few extras {suggested by Kiku} such as tank tops, gloves, scarves and coats. Miku had also suggested that I pack some nice clothes, so I had done that too. I had bagged up as many pairs of shoes as possible, since I didn't want them to get my clothes dirty. I'd also had to pack bedding and things like that, so I'd put in a couple of towels, a blanket, a few pillows and a duvet, some sheets, pillow cases and duvet covers, as well as my bathrobe. Squished in and also bagged up, I'd put in my toiletries; some plasters, all my make-up, jewelry, hair accessories and cosmetics all contained in their own separate bags, some deodorant and body spray, my comb and hairbrush, toothbrush and toothpaste, and of course my body wash, shampoo and conditioner. God, I never expected that I'd have to pack this much stuff.
I sighed and sat back, pretty sure that I'd packed everything. Miku, being the strange motherly girl that she was, had packed a sewing kit and some laundry stuff, and promised to help Kiku and I out by assisting us in washing and mending our clothes. Yeah, she's weird, but when you've lived with her for six years, you get used to it.
Checking through my suitcases had left me pretty tired, and it was almost two in the morning, so I decided to try and get some rest. After all, we would be leaving pretty early, and I'm not a morning person usually anyway. Thankfully, Mikuo was going to drive us there, and we'd have a couple of hours to sleep on the way, although we were picking up Haku too.
I felt bad for Haku too. She'd been really worried about joining a new school, since she's pretty quiet and blends in with the scenery sometimes. I'm sure she'll be okay, and make plenty of new friends. I hope.
Okay, come on Neru. You have to sleep. Stop thinking about what it'll be like and how everyone else is feeling, and just go to sleep. There's no use worrying about Kiku and Haku; it's up to them to have a good time there. Come on… go to sleep now. Just go… to sleep.
