Hello! Here is chapter two. Sorry if this whole updating is slow, I've been having friend drama lately and it's been weighing me down. But here it is anyway, enjoy!

Rin sat on a swing at Monochrome Park the next day. Monochrome Park was a dark, gloomy kind of place. It used to be bustling with life a few years ago, up until the town of Seraphina built the more fashionable and fancy Blitzer Park across the street. All funding towards the once kid-friendly, welcoming park was cut, and the place became overgrown with weeds, vines, and prickly plants. It also didn't help that heavy rainfall had turned the park into a desolate swamp.

Rin swung lazily back and forth on the swing, hearing the scraping sound of pebbles underneath her cream colored hiking boots. She was wearing a white overall dress that had pink pom-poms hanging off the bottom of the skirt. Underneath the dress was a white long sleeve top. Her signature enormous white bow sat on top of her head. Two white barrettes kept her long blonde bangs from hanging in her face. On her back was a black backpack that had a couple days' worth of clothes inside. She continuously checked her pink wrist watch. Where are they?

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" she heard SeeU gasp through the dense fog somewhere in front of her. She narrowed her eyes and saw her and Teto making their way towards the swings. SeeU was hunched over, trying desperately to catch her breath. She was never the most athletic. She always wore loose clothing, because she felt like tight fitting clothes made her look huge. Today, she was wearing a long sleeved black and white striped top and some matching black leggings. She wheezed as she tried to climb up the hill, not seeing Teto walk right past her. Teto was wearing the most vibrant clothes of the bunch, unsurprisingly. She was wearing a pink and yellow sweatshirt and a black miniskirt.

"It's gonna take SeeU years to get up this hill." Teto announced, looking over her shoulder to stick her tongue out at the wavy haired catgirl.

"Hey! I'm doing my best!" She cried, eventually reaching the top and sitting with a thud on the closest swing to Rin. Both of them had their clothes packed just like she did.

"Okay, here's the plan. I called the police department last night and told them that we were going to help them find Miku. So that means that whatever we find, we have to tell them too. They also told me that they'll call me if they get any leads on her case. They posted missing signs all over Seraphina." Rin explained, pulling out her iPhone and pulling up a map of the town and the surrounding area, "We'll check here and around here first, of course."

"Miku disappeared the night before last night. What if she was put into sex trafficking and taken somewhere far from here?" SeeU whimpered.

"We won't know until we get some leads." Was Rin's curt reply, cranking the ringer up on her ruby red phone as high as it will go.

"Why'd you tell us to pack all these clothes if all we're going to do is sit and wait for the police department to call us?" Teto asked, sounding agitated.

"I didn't say we were gonna sit and wait." Rin answered through gritted teeth, "I said that we were going to look around here first for her."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Teto hopped off the swings and lifted her arms dramatically towards the gray sky, "Let's get started!"

"I-I haven't had my morning coffee…" SeeU objected, but the other two girls ignored her as they got off the swings and ventured out of the park. The cat girl soon followed with a huff, hurrying after them. Teto told the two that because she was the oldest, she'd drive. As they walked down the sidewalks towards where Teto's house was, "Call Me Baby" by the K-pop boy band EXO boomed from Rin's phone. She hurriedly pulled it out of her pocket and her heart started to pound when she saw that it was the police department. Her whole being shook as she answered the call.

"Hello?" She asked into the phone. Teto and SeeU gazed at her expectantly.

"Is this Rin Kagamine?" A man's voice asked.

"Yes it is. Did you get something?"

"We think so. There's a girl down here who wants to talk to you. She says she knows Miku from a close friend of hers and she gave us a lead. Please come down here immediately."

"I will, I'll get there as fast as I can!" Rin cried. She hung up the phone and immediately bolted towards the direction of the police department, which was in the opposite direction of Teto's house.

"Hey!" She heard Teto call, "We're gonna go get the car! We'll catch up!" Rin barely heard her; she was so focused on running. She hadn't ran this fast since she tried to do track in middle school. People out for leisurely strolls complained as she ran past them but she didn't care. If they knew how important this was, maybe they'd understand. Eventually, after running for about five blocks, she saw the brick police station in the distance. She was gasping for air at this point, and her lungs felt as if they may collapse. She barely had enough strength to push herself through the double doors of the building. The receptionist pointed her in the direction of the interrogation room and she stomped her way in there, her chest tightened from the lack of oxygen. She sat herself down with a loud thud in a chair next to the police chief, Officer Kamui, and across from a girl she had never seen before.

The girl seated across from her was maybe five or more years older than she was. Her hair was long, black and flat, and fell effortlessly down her back. She was wearing thick black glasses, the square ones that were all the rage right now. She was wearing a white tank top, which accentuated the large black tattoo on her pale right arm. When she saw Rin, she gave her a tired smile.

"You don't know me." She began, stretching her arm across the table for a handshake, "But I heard about you. My name is Mew."

Rin hesitantly shook her hand before giving her a questioning look, "How do you know Miku and why are you here?"

Mew put her hand back into her lap and sighed, "My close friend knows her. His name is Yuuma. You may want to go talk to him about her because he may know more about where she is than I would. They were very close." Rin tried to search deep into the crevices of her mind for that name but couldn't remember it. Miku was talking to a boy? Why didn't she tell me about him?

"Where can I find him?" She asked, trying to shake off the feeling that Miku trusted someone else more than her.

"I can give you his address. He hasn't left that house for months. I wonder if he's alright." She murmured, taking out a pen and a notepad from her designer black bag, "He's very eccentric so don't be surprised if he won't open up all that much. He's always been like that." She scribbled down an address in fancy cursive and lent it to her from across the table.

"Do you know anything about Miku's whereabouts?" Officer Kamui asked, taking down notes.

She shook her head, "Sadly, no. But ask Yuuma. I bet ya he will know."
