Hey! This is my first vocaloid story. I hope you enjoy it! I do not own vocaloid or any part of it. Thank you!
In the vocaloid house, things had been strangely quiet lately. Almost boring. It was a dark evening, and storm clouds filled the sky, threatening to pour their contents out. Len and Rin sat on the couch in the living room.
"Len!" Rin called, despite the fact that he was less than four feet away. "I'm so bored!"
Len sighed in an irritated way and said
"Well, get over it. I am too." Miku, who was sitting in the floor with Meiko and Kaito, playing monopoly, said
"Oh yeah, Mikuo said there is going to be a new vocaloid coming today!"
Mikuo, who was just now returning from the kitchen with popcorn, said
"Ha-ha, sorry for forgetting to tell you guys. From eavesdropping, I did figure out that she's a girl around Miku's age, but nothing else." Everyone sighed and Kaito said
"Well, I wish she would hurry up and get here. A new vocaloid would definitely make things more fun around here." The rest of the gang nodded in agreement.
"By the way," Meiko asked, "where are your brothers, Kaito?" Kaito pointed at the staircase and said
"Akaito is on his computer, Taito is sleeping, and Nigaito is… um… whatever is he's doing in his room."
"Maybe we should check on him?" suggested Miku. Before anyone could act, there was a knock at the door. Miku jumped up and said
"I'll get it!" She opened the door to reveal a man in a black suit and sunglasses. (Who wears sunglasses when it's raining?) The man greeted them and said
"As I'm sure you are all aware," he glared at Mikuo, "There was a new vocaloid coming today. She has arrived, and I am happy to be able to escort her to you. This is Gumi Megpoid."
A girl with green hair, and cute orange attire stepped out from behind the man. She bowed her head.
"It's nice to meet you all." She said with a smile. Miku grabbed her hand and guided her inside.
"Come on inside! No need to stand in the rain!" She said almost too cheerily. Gumi laughed lightly and followed. Miku slammed the door in the man's face.
In the living room, everyone introduced themselves.
"So, Gumi, What do you like?" Gumi thought for a moment and said
"I like music, carrots, and my favorite subject at school is Science." Kaito said
"That's cool. I think my three brothers are upstairs. Too bad they missed introductions."
Miku yawned.
"Well, it was nice getting to know you! I think we should go to sleep for now. We have a big day tomorrow! It's our first day together at the recording studio!" Everybody slowly filed up the stairs. Miku was showing Gumi to her room, when Gumi suddenly stopped. She was sure she heard something whimper from behind the door they just passed. She just decided not to worry about it. - It was probably just her imagination.
As Gumi walked into her room, she was quiet pleased. There was light orange wallpaper, and soft yellow carpet. The furniture was made from white wood. The bed looked comfortable, and was covered with a pastel green blanket that had stars on it. There was a desk with a lamp already on it, and a closet with a sliding door. There was a brown leather couch against the windowsill. Sitting in the middle of the room was a table that had a piece of paper laying on it. After Miku had said goodnight and left, Gumi picked it up and read it. In crayon, it had written on it
Welcome. I hope you like it here. – Nigaito
She looked at it and tilted her head.
"Nigaito…" she let the name roll off her tongue. She couldn't recognize the name, but decided that it was probably one of the brothers that Kaito had mentioned.
"Well, it was nice of him to write a welcome card." She said smiling. She then unpacked her things from the boxes that had already been brought up here, turned the light off, and drifted off to sleep in her new bed.
Gumi's POV
I found it a bit difficult to be sleeping in a new place, so I wandered down the staircase to the kitchen. I flipped the light on to see a small boy sitting at the kitchen counter with a concerned look on his face. His hair was a bright green color. He looked up at Gumi and became startled.
"Ah!" he said. "I'm sorry! D-did I wake you?" Gumi shook her head.
"Don't worry. You didn't. I was just having trouble sleeping since it's my first night here. Are you maybe… Nigaito?" The boy nodded his head nervously.
"And you're the new vocaloid?"
"Yup! My name is Gumi!" she said. Nigaito went back to sitting by the counter. Gumi walked over and said
"So, What are you doing up so late?" Nigaito, looking at the clock, which read 4:37, said
"Oh… well…" he didn't finish his sentence. Lightning illuminated the sky outside and thunder crashed. At the sound, he flinched and clamped his eyes shut.
"I see. Are you afraid of storms?" She asked quietly. He simply nodded and looked up at her helplessly. Gumi ruffled his hair and said
"Well then, why don't you come up to my room? It won't be so scary alone." She smiled brightly at him. He hopped down off his chair and nodded again.
Back in Gumi's room, she sat down on her couch and patted the seat beside her for Nigaito to come and sit. He hesitantly sat beside her. It thundered again, and he curled up and buried his face in his knees. He trembled, so Gumi moved closer to him. Trying to take his mind off of it, she said
"So, how old are you?" Nigaito raised his head a little and said
"F-fifteen…" Gumi looked surprised and said
"Really? I am too! I thought you were a lot younger than that." Nigaito smiled slightly and said
"Yeah… I get that a lot." With every roll of thunder, he flinched. Gumi frowned, wishing there was something she could do. She hugged him lightly and said
"I'm sorry you're scared. By the way, thank you for the card. It was really thoughtful." Nigaito blushed and fidgeted nervously a bit.
"Y-you're welcome… but why are you being so nice? I mean… we just met…" Gumi released him and quickly replied
"I'm sorry! I just feel the need to help people in whatever way I can… it's just this thing I feel like I should do since I was alone a lot as a child. It's kind why I wanted to come here." Nigaito looked up at her said quietly
"I didn't mean I didn't like it… It was actually pretty comforting…" Gumi hugged him again and said
"As long as you're happy."
Soon afterwards, Nigaito fell asleep. Gumi gently laid his head down and went back to her bed.
"Goodnight, Nigaito." She whispered from across the room.
The next morning, Miku came to wake Gumi up. When she stepped through the door and saw Nigaito asleep on the couch, she said
"Gumi, your first night here, and you have a boy in your room? Aren't you popular?" She asked raising her eyebrow. Gumi sleepily responded
"He was just in here because he's afraid of storms! That's all, and hush! You'll wake him up!"
Miku giggled and nodded, running down the stairs. After an interesting first night, Gumi was settling in nicely, and in a couple of hours she would be doing her first recording in the ACTUAL vocaloid studio! She couldn't wait.
