Vocaloid School Stories – Chapter 1: New school
It was early in the morning, and Miku was already awake. She combed her long greenish-blue hair, tied them into two pigtails and then headed to her school. It was her first day, she was very happy. But, she was very nervous since it was her first time in a mixed school. She had always been in only-girls schools. She grabbed her luggage and went by car to her new school.
As she entered through the gate, she noticed quite a lot of students. Classes were starting the next day. She went into a big building and saw what she hated the most: STAIRS. She went to the third floor and unlocked the door, which had the number 151 on it, with the new key she had been given. Excited, she opened the door to see what kind of place she would be living in for the next 3 years.
Not bad.
A big room, 15x12 meters approximately, beautiful curtains, a bathroom and a TV. At a corner of the room, there were two beds, so that meant she'd live with another person.
She was rushing to the bed nearest to the window as she heard somebody opening the door. "Miku, is that you?" she recognized the voice and turned around to see her best friend from her older school, Rin Kagamine leaning on her new bedroom's door.
"Miku, I'm so happy!" Rin said as she got closer to her best friend.
"I didn't know you had transferred to this school, Rin" said Miku as they were hugging.
"I just wanted to follow you, school wouldn't be the same without you and your cute hair!"
"Ha, ha, you never change, do you?" Miku giggled as they stopped hugging.
They started unpacking while they talked about the school and the new friends they were about to make. Time passed quickly. When they looked up, they saw that the clock read 8:37pm already, so they decided to go to bed. They took a bath and got into their pajamas, and decided to sleep together in Miku's bed.
"Why aren't we getting another roommate?, that way it'd be much more fun" cried Rin as she was getting into Miku's bed.
"I'm ok just being with you, Rin" Miku said softly as she covered her body with the blankets.
Rin got red, like a tomato, and trying to end the awkward moment she said "I-I'm nervous, this is our first time in a mixed school, I wonder how things will go…"
"Don't worry, we will be fine, I won't let anybody touch you, if some guy tries to do something to you, I will just beat him with my sword" Miku smiled confidently.
"Really? That is good to know, you are very good at kendo, I'm feeling better now" Rin said, lying on the bed.
"By, the way, didn't you say your twin brother attended this school?" Miku asked naively.
Rin turned as red as a tomato (again) and started looking the other way. She muttered something hardly audible "Well, I-I umm my brother, well he is, umm"
"Is something wrong?" Miku asked concerned
"No!" Rin shouted and got up from the bed "It's just that, well you see, I don't have a good relation with my brother, and he is pretty scary, too" Rin finished softly. It seemed she was scared.
"Hmmm, I see, could you tell me more?" Miku asked Rin politely, she knew something was wrong.
"He would often tell me scary stories when we were little, I used to sleep with my mom almost every night because of the nightmares I had, even when we grew up he still liked to bother me, like last Christmas, it was our birthday, guess what he gave me!"
"I have no idea," Miku replied, confused.
"I opened the box, took out the wrapping and I found black PANTIES!" Rin screeched as she took them out and showed them to Miku.
"H-hey! Where did you get those from? Were you hiding them or something?" asked a freaked out Miku.
"He is a pervert, even with his sister, he is always going out with different girls, who knows how far he has gone with them!, now I'll have to see him almost every day, now that is a nightmare!" Rin cried and covered her head with the blankets.
"Didn't I say I was going to protect you? You don't need to worry, just leave that pervert to me!" Miku promised confidently, winking at Rin.
"Thanks a lot," Rin mumbled quietly, tired, and started closing her eyes.
Miku was also sleepy, so she and Rin drifted into asleep.
Night Passed very quickly.
-In the morning-
The sun was already out, the room filled with light and both Miku and Rin were deep in sleep. The clock's alarm started ringing, but it only managed to wake up Miku.
"Rin," Miku yawned as she said the name, "Could you please turn that thing off?" asked Miku, almost asleep again, when she noticed Rin was not even awake, and was snoring.
"I guess I will have to wake her up" Said Miku in a sleepy voice. She tried to wake up Rin by shaking her shoulders. Rin opened her eyes, but was a complete zombie.
They turned off the alarm, got changed and they headed to the mess hall. As they ran due to being late, Rin crashed into a pink-haired girl and they both fell to the floor.
"Ughh, I'm sorry" Rin groaned as she tried to stand up, having landed on the floor.
"Don't worry, it's fine," said the pink-haired girl. "My name is Megurine Luka."
"Nice to meet you, my name is Hatsune Miku" Miku introduced herself as she helped Rin to stand up.
"And my name is Kagamine Rin," introduced Rin, tying her ribbon to her head.
"Should we have breakfast together? You seem like good people." Asked Luka, elegantly.
The girls agreed and started walking headed for breakfast.
"Are you new to this school? I have never seen you before." inquired Luka.
"Yes, we are, we used to be in an only-girls school" Miku answered.
"I see, it must be difficult, being new, especially because this is a mixed school." Luka noted while she was looked at Miku and Rin as if she was sorry for them.
They continued walking and got to the mess hall, they had breakfast and headed for the auditorium to hear the opening speech for new students. They sat together and waited for a long time; everybody else was talking and taking photos.
"I wonder who will be the nerd giving the speech this time," Rin moaned as if she was desperate to get out.
"That is rude, not all smart people are nerds," Luka explained as if she was trying to defend herself.
"Yeah, Rin, that was rude," Miku said supporting Luka.
"Well I'm sorry, but I get annoyed and bored when I have to wait for a long time!" Rin exclaimed as she yawned.
"Hey, look, some guy is getting to the microphone" Miku said as she pointed the stage, her eyes and Rin's growing as big as dining plates.
The whole room calmed down when a handsome, blonde guy with blue eyes, similar to Rin's, got to the middle of the stage. Girls from the whole school were screaming and getting excited for that guy. Miku's heart started pounding faster, like she had been running for a long time. She was about to join the screaming girls when she heard Rin say...
"Onii-sama!, No way, he never told me anything " She looked quite surprised.
"Oh, is he your brother?, no wonder why you look so alike," noted Luka in a confident way, ignoring Rin's surprised face.
"Miku, hey, Miku! Are you listening?" Rin was trying to get Miku's attention, but she was completely lost in her fantasy. She had fallen in love with the guy she had promised to hit with a sword until he bled to death (well, she didn't exactly say that, but she had thought about it).
He introduced himself, and his name was indeed, Len Kagamine. He gave his speech, it wasn't very long, but it was ok.
After some more speeches, they headed to their classrooms, Luka headed another way as she was one year older than them.
"I'll see you after classes, good luck!" Luka shouted over the noise of the other students, and headed to her own classroom. Miku & Rin continued walking to her classroom: 1-B
"Miku, are you ok? You've been kind of silent since the opening speech." Rin asked as she opened the classroom's door.
"I'm okay, I-I just think that your brother is, you know like, umm-"
"Like a jerk?" offered Rin, amused.
"No, he is kind of… cute.." Miku turned red and headed to the middle row, Rin, pallid like a ghost, followed her and grabbed the seat next to her friend.
"Rin, are you ok?" Rin turned to face her best friend with a cold eyes. Miku was afraid; it was the first time she saw her like that.
"No way! You told me you were going to protect me from Len, and you end up falling in love with HIM?" Rin cried looking at Miku's eyes.
"Falling in love with whom?" Rin turned and saw her brother right behind her. He had been the one who said that sentence.
"What are you doing here?" she shouted so loudly that the whole class looked at her. She was embarrassed, and tried to avoid eye contact with them.
"See what happens when you lose your temper?" Len chuckled, making fun of Rin. He turned and noticed Miku was looking at him. "Who is this pretty lady?" he asked, looking at Miku, who looked away quickly.
"You'd better not get close to her, she is MINE!" Rin screamed in a defiant way, looking angrily at Len.
"I see…Rin, do you have problems with you sexuality?, are you like, you know, a lesbian?" Len was digging his own grave. When Rin was angry she wouldn't stop raging for several hours.
"I was just saying, I won't let you put your perverted hands on her!" Rin attempted to punch her brother, but Miku grasped her arm and made her sit down.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Hatsune Miku" Miku introduced politely while she tried to calm Rin down..
"I see, that is a cute name, why don't you come with me after-"
"NEVER!" Rin interrupted and again, she shouted so loud that everyone turned to stare at her. After that, she just laid her forehead on her desk, looking sad and embarrassed.
"Rin…don't worry I won't go with him anyways" Miku comforted in a soft voice petting her best friend on the head.
"Huh? Do you have other plans?" Len asked, confused, as if he had never heard a girl telling him "no".
"Yes! I had told Rin and Luka-senpai to go shopping with me" She explained cheerfully, smiling brightly. Len glanced at her, blushing a little, but he quickly turned away.
"I guess it can't be helped" Len looked the other way and moved to the seat behind Miku. Just as he plopped himself down, the new teacher came in. Miku felt high school wasn't starting just as she had planned, but still she felt very excited. She knew things would get better even with Rin's problems with her brother.
