Wow, I had posted this story and then only 7 hours later I got five reviews~! Thank you, you all have made my day. After slight procastination, back pain and deliberation, I have finally decided to type up chapter two. Sorry about this delay and I promise I shall try to update everyday.

Another Disclaimer: I don't own the song nor do I own the translations. All I have is a Len Kagamine plushie and several pictures... OK Thousands of pictures... And yes a few are yaoi .;;

Chapter Two

~Len~

The shadows were becoming longer around Len as the sun lowered in the sky. The air became cooler, the smell of dew and tree sap wrapped around him. His eyes became tired and started to drop, but yet he wanted to stay. He knew it would be mad to sit in front of the mirror for the whole night, but he just didn't have the willpower to leave. With outstretched fingers, he stroked the cool glass. The longing to feel the girl's soft warm skin was unbearbale. She glanced over her shoulder, as if unsure. Perhaps she had a family to go home to? He didn't want her to stay out this late, what if something attacks her? He wouldn't be able to protect her. That's when he remembered something that made his heart skip a beat.

Mirrors - even magical ones that allowed you to see a reverse reality - need light to work. He couldn't remember excatly how it works, something about light and rays reflecting to form images... He noticed that the girl's world was becoming dimmer as well.

"No! I don't want you to go!" he cried, lunging himself at the mirror. The need to have her, to hold her in his arms became so strong he wished the mirror would brake. He felt his eyes moisten and realised that tears were begining to fall. He wiped them with his sleeve and glanced up at her. She was smiling sadly. She leant up and kissed the glass right where his cheek was. She mouthed some words, but he was no good at reading lips.

'Maybe if I sing one last time she would hear me?' the thought seemed to make sense to him. He closed his eyes, feeling the words form easily. He opened his eyes and stared longingly into the girl's.

"Your place in that world,
The same scenery as mine..." he faltered, seeing something in her eyes that had changed. He was sure she acknowledged him now.

With a grin, she opened her mouth. Faintly, as if listening to something miles away, Len was sure he heard her reply.

"Your place has the same sky,
But only I'm not there..."

He blinked hard in disbelief. He was sure he had heard it; a small tiny voice that sung sweeter than anything he had heard before in his life. He found himself smiling and continuing his song, hearing the girl sing with him.

"The mirror that divides us,
We sing far away in the same place..." Singing with her was the most reassuring thing he had felt all day. He beamed and started to laugh. She copied him and they laughed with glee until it was almost completely dark.

Len knew now they had to leave each other. He was sure they would be able to met each other again tomorrow. He wanted to sing with her again. He winked at her and then got to his cramped feet. He waved slightly. She stood as well and curtseyed.

With her faint melody ringing still in his ears he turned and shambled away from the mirror. When he reached the place where the clearing ended, he looked back over his shoulder at the now faint mirror. He could no longer see any reflection, but was comforted by the thought that she could be looking back at him as well.


~Rin~

The shadows were becoming longer around Rin as the sun lowered in the sky. The air became cooler, the smell of dew and tree sap wrapped around her. She was becoming cold, but felt wide awake. She was still sitting in front of the magical mirror, watching the boy closely. He was looking tired, his eyes started to droop. But yet, he didn't seem to want to go just yet.

This made Rin think, 'Does this boy have a family and a home to go to?' It made sense that he could, but for some reason he didn't seem as anxious to leave. She glanced over her shoulder nervously.

The boy reached out and stroked the cool glass. The longing to feel his soft warm fingers stroking her cheek was unbearbale. She realised that due to lack of light, his image was slowly fading.

He cried out, his words falling silent on her ears. He seemed distressed and suddenly lunged himself at the glass. She noticed he was begining to cry. He wiped them with his sleeve and glanced up at her. She smiled sadly at him, feeling his pain. To try to cheer him up, she leant up and kissed his cheek.

"It's ok, I'll wait for you," she said softly, knowing he couldn't hear her.

The boy closed his eyes, as if lost in thought. After a short while, he reopened his eyes and stared longingly into Rin's.

His lips moved, and she thought she heard a song start up from the mirror. It was very quiet, but she was sure it was his voice. The words were strangley fimiluar and the voice soothing.

"Kimi no basho sono sekai,
Boku to onnaji keshiki..." The tune faltered, as he saw her acknowledgement that she had heard his song.

With a grin, she opened her mouth. She knew the reply without thinking about it. It was an exciting feeling to have, knowing now that the boy could hear her voice.

"Kimi no basho onnaji sora,
Tada watashi take soko ni inani..."

She stopped and peered at his reaction. Could he hear her as well?

He blinked hard in disbelief. He smiled and continued the song, the lyrics Rin knew well. She sung with him.

"Futari wo wakatsu kono kagami no,
Koukoua wa onnaji basho bokura utau..."

Singing with him was the most reassuring thing she had felt all day. She beamed and started to laugh. He copied her and they laughed with glee until it was almost completely dark.

Rin knew now they had to leave each other. She was sure they would be able to met each other again tomorrow. She wanted to sing with him again. The winked at her and then got to his feet. He waved slightly. She stood as well and curtseyed.

With his faint melody ringing still in her ears she turned and shambled away from the mirror. When she reached the place where the clearing ended, she looked back over her shoulder at the now faint mirror. She could no longer see any reflection, but was comforted by the thought that he could be looking back at her as well.


Oh God, I just realised there is like, not even a week until Piko is released! I hope he is as awesome as the guy that voices him (Pico) and they don't screw up his voice!
