WOO Guys. Imma back! Sorry I disappeared I got the infamous Trojan horse virus and I lost everything for "The World according to this Utauloid" which was the story of my Utau Aisuru Oto. So it is momentarily on hiatus but I have more coming. I have only recently got into Mayu and I'm in love with her! XD MAYU *^* But the lack of fan fiction for her is SAD. So I listened to every song she's in. Ellie, Elsa-Maria, Blood Stained Switch, Guard of Loneliness, Unrequited Love and You're Seriously Mad? to name a few. So born was this beauty. I plan on at least ten chapters maybe even more! But let's not get ahead of myself. Let's get going on this.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the songs mentioned. I do not own Mayu. :(

Prologue: Chimidoro Suicchi

A sip of coffee and a puff from a cigarette both taken in quick succession.

These were the simple pleasures that Head Doctor, Dell Honne enjoyed in the early mornings in his place of work. At exactly five in the morning he would wake up in front of a computer screen displaying a patient report he hadn't finished the night before. At exactly five fifteen he would run a hand through his snowy white hair in frustration and hit the save button before he would get up to take a shower. He would grab his red washcloth and soap and decide whether or not he would shave only to be reminded that he had no facial hair to shave. At five forty-five he would emerge from the bathroom and throw one his white, cotton button up shirt and black pants. He would don his lab coat and I.D just before slipping on his black shoes and would leave just before six could roll around at five fifty-nine. He would walk to the cafeteria to see his assistant Haku Yowane already setting his breakfast down on the table along with his coffee. She would look up at him and hurry to sit down with his newest patient records. She would explain whatever she knew about the patient while he just nodded along pretending to listen. His days were like clockwork. Boring, monotonous clockwork. He would grab his cup of coffee and abruptly leave, on most days in the middle of Haku explaining something and head outside. He would ignore the fact that it was fifty degrees out and take a sip of his coffee and fumble in his pocket to pull out a cigarette and light it with one hand. He would take a sip then a puff. Maybe one day he would take a puff before he sipped just to mix it up a bit. He would blow a smoke ring silently wishing for something to liven up his days at Sacred Heart Sanitarium.

Haku Yowane silently stood by the door watching her superior get a step closer to lung cancer. She remembered one day when she called him on it and he said "I'll stop smoking when you stop drinking". She had tried on several occasions to stop but in the end she would end up in a bathroom with him, holding her hair while her "happy booze train" left her system and into the white bowl of water or the floor. She huffed in annoyance and her red eyes waivered for a moment, her gut telling her to knock the cigarette to the concrete and crush it with every bit of her weight, but she couldn't do it. She just didn't have it in her. She looked back at the patient folder she had been carrying and re-read it so she could tell Dell everything again when he came back inside. The patient's name was Mayu. There was no last name printed which maybe had been a printer error on her part. The girl was nine years old, and had a very pretty face with striking yellow eyes and platinum blonde hair which faded out into blue, green, purple, pink, and yellow toward the bottom. She was smiling in her patient photo, looking unnaturally happy to be honest. She scanned over her basic information, you know the weight height, the stuff no one really cared about. She mused over it until her eyes met a sticky note it hadn't noticed before. It read in small print:

Patient is showing symptoms of H.E.R.S. or Hereditary Evil Raiser Syndrome, if she begins to become uncontrollable the injection will be administered.

Haku of course had no idea what HERS was but she had no way to research it yet, as the internet had been down for days, but whatever it was if the injection was the only option it must be dangerous. She had overheard when they brought the girl in last night after she turned the light off in Dell's room. She remembered how the girl was crying and screaming she wanted her Muyo over and over. She wanted to investigate but didn't want to risk getting in trouble since she wasn't supposed to be up and about at that hour in the first place.

"Yowane? Dr. Yowane?"

Haku snapped out of her daze and looked up at an annoyed Dell.

"S-Sorry Dell I was just- err the new patient..-!"

"The one with HERS?"

"Y-Yes how'd you-?"

She was immediately cut off by him showing her the sticky note which must have fallen to the floor. He instructed her to go make him another cup of coffee and she scurried off at his command like usual. Haku would only mumble what a jerk when she was out of hearing radius.

Dell sighed as he watched Haku scamper out of sight, somewhat enjoying the way she walked. As the saying went "I hate to watch her go, but I love to watch her leave." He turned and headed towards the north wing of Sacred Heart towards the newest patient's room. He had no idea why they put her in the farthest recesses of the hospital. What's the worst a little girl could do? He turned into the gall finally his nose met with the unpleasant scent of cheap store brand Pine-Sol. The scent almost always made him noxious. It reminded him of his grandmother who- god bless her soul- he loathed with a burning passion. Room 406 drew neared and he knocked on the door. This was him merely being polite since he technically had the right to come in anyway. He knocked once. Twice. Thrice. He raised his hand again to knock when he heard a noise inside. Like someone sitting up out the bed quickly to look as if they weren't asleep.

"Come in..."

He stuck his hand in his pocket, retrieving the key card, before swiping it and opening the door. He pushed it slightly and it swung open on its own before closing automatically behind me once he walked inside. Sitting on the bed before him was a little girl. The picture they had on file did not prepare him for this. She was startlingly beautiful for her age. She gazed at him with her yellow eyes which were brimmed with curiosity. She adjusted her small white frilled hat on her head before she smoothed out her dress of the same color. It was a moment before anyone spoke but she opened her mouth first.

"My name Chōsokabe Mayu and you are?"

She spoke in such a dignified manner for a child it was almost unnerving.

"Dell Honne, I'll be your doctor during your stay here at Sacred Heart."

She looked at him again for a second. Like she was trying to find something specific. Dell found that few seconds of silence slowly but surely destroying his nerves. He had no idea why being in this girl's presence made him so nervous. Maybe it was the fact she had HERS. Dell guessed that the odd pauses in talking were bothering her as well because soon she began asking short questions in hope of getting him to keep talking.

"Mr. Honne what's your favorite color?"

"Purple."

"What's that?"

"Your folder."

"What's a folder?"

"A file with all your information."

"Does it say why I'm here?"

"Ye-….no."

Dell looked through the file again but it didn't have an incident report. This was odd for many reasons. They needed one on file for treatment reasons. They also needed one to keep her here.

"Would you mind telling me why you're here Miss Chōsokabe?"

"Well Mr. Honne...ever since I was born a girl who wanted to kill took root in my head. We agreed we'd be good girls, but she broke her promise!"

"Broke her promise?"

She nodded. "She said she would behave...but then daddy...he did something bad."

"Bad?"

"Yes very bad..."

She sat there and explained the bloody mess to him. He left very quietly but one thing she said stuck to him.

"I'm here because of my switch. The one who pressed the switch wasn't me. The one who pressed the switch was another me."
