"Wait- look! Her eyes just opened!"
"We've created another!"
"Hang on just a sec. We don't know yet. We have to wait."
The scientists only had to wait a few seconds before she sat up and took in her surroundings. This one looked slightly younger than the previous AI they had built and she had very short yellow hair and the numbers 02 tattooed on her shoulder.
The scientists were baffled. They had managed to create two artificial life forms! However they quickly got over their astonishment at themselves when the memory of how their previous AI had acted right after she had taken in her surroundings kicked in. Sure enough, the new robot was acting the same way.
"GYAAAAAAAAAAHH! I'M NOT WEARING CLOTHES!" she screamed. The lead scientist noticed a large crack appear in the window and felt a few cracks appear in his own eardrum.
"I'M COMPLETELY NAKED! GYAAHH! DON'T LOOK AT ME! I NEED CLOTHES! SOMEONE GET ME SOME CLOTHES!" A few more cracks appeared in the window and a glass of water shattered.
"Alright, you two, get her some clothes!" the lead scientist said, pointing to two female scientists, the same two who had gotten clothes for the previous AI.
"But what about the other one?" one of the other scientists asked, worried.
"Oh. Hm. I don't know. It doesn't look like he'll survive."
"But shouldn't we-?"
"GET ME SOME FREAKING CLOTHES ALREADY!"
"We'll watch over him, ok?"
"Look! He just blinked!"
"Huh?" The scientists crowded around him as he opened his sky blue eyes sleepily and sat up.
"Why are you all- GAAH! Oh my gosh! I'm NAKED!"
"Alright, you two; get them both clothes."
OOOoooOOOOoOo
The two scientists came back about four hours later.
"Geez, where the hell were you?" one of the male scientists asked.
"We had to pick out something perfect for the two of them!"
"Well, I just hope it didn't cost too much."
"Then you may be out of luck." The lead scientist grunted.
They handed the twin AI's the clothes they bought for them and took them outside the room so they could get a look at themselves in the mirror. They were surprised by their reactions to the clothes.
"Really cute! I love them!" the female said. She was wearing a white school uniform-like tank top with a big yellow bow, short shorts with a yellow and orange wallet chain, white shoes with blue souls and black leg warmer-like things on her legs, as well as the glove-like things that supplied her with power.
"Yeah, me too!" the male said, wearing a similar outfit to hers, only his shorts were a lot longer with yellow bands at the bottoms and he was wearing a tie instead of a bow. They really did look similar, only the male's hair was spikier than the girl's hair and he was slightly taller.
"So, what're our names?" the boy asked the lead scientist.
"Umm…"
"How about 'Kasumi' and 'Katsumi'?" one of the scientists suggested. "Kasumi for the girl and Katsumi for the boy."
"Yuck. They match too much." The girl said.
"Yeah, I don't wanna be exactly like her." The boy agreed.
"Hmm… Oh! I think we should do something that has to do with right and left!" one of the female scientists suggested. "Like, the girl's name starts with 'R' and the boy's name starts with 'L'!"
"Oh, like 'Rin' and 'Len' or something?" one of the scientists asked.
"Oh, cool! I like Rin!" the girl said excitedly.
"I like Len!" the boy responded.
"Alright, you're Rin, you're Len."
"Yay!" they both said at once.
"Ok, I just have to ask: can you sing?" the lead scientist asked.
"I think so." Rin replied.
"Maybe." Len said.
"Why?" Rin and Len both asked at the same time.
"Oh, nothing. Here, I'll show you a song. After I show it to you, you try to sing it." He led them both to the computer, went onto YouTube, typed in 'American national anthem' and played the video.
"Got it." Both Rin and Len said at the same time.
"Now sing it." The lead scientist said. They cleared their throats and started to sing. They sang it perfectly, with a beautiful harmony and without forgetting a single lyric. It was amazing. Everyone applauded when they were done.
"Come with me." The lead scientist said. "There's someone I want you to meet." Rin and Len followed him through a corridor and into a room where a teal-haired girl with extremely long pigtails was sitting. She looked up and smiled.
"These must be my new siblings!" she said cheerfully.
"What?" Rin said, confused.
"Who are you?" Len asked.
"I'm your Nee-chan, Miku Hatsune! Nice to meet you! What're your names?"
"Rin."
"Len."
"Nice to meet you, Rin-chan and Len-kun!" she said, holding out her hand. Rin and Len both shook it. "What're your last names?"
"Umm…"
"How about 'Kagamine'? You know, 'mirror sound'?"
"Yeah, I like that!" Rin and Len both replied. "Kagamine."
"Cool! Can you guys sing?" Miku asked.
"Yeah!" Rin and Len both said at the same time.
"Awesome! Me too! Now I can finally put on a concert!" Miku jumped up and down in excitement.
"Concert? Yay!" both Rin and Len said at the same time.
"Let's go prepare!" Rin said excitedly, also jumping up and down.
"Yeah! We need a smoke machine!" Len shouted.
"And glitter!"
"And confetti!"
"And some new songs!" Miku said, also excited.
"We need paper!" Rin and Len shouted.
"And headsets." Miku replied.
"Headsets?" Rin and Len both asked.
"Yeah, so we know our cues!"
"Oh, ok! We also need-!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. We don't even have a smoke machine. Or glitter. Or headsets!" the lead scientist butted in.
"Then go buy some!" Miku and Rin said at the same time.
"We can't afford them."
"We'll give you some of the money we make to pay it off!" Miku said. The scientists grumbled. Finally, the lead scientist said:
"Alright. We'll buy them for you. But you have to pay us back, okay?"
"We need a drum set!" Rin shouted.
"And a bass guitar!" Len shouted.
"Hey! There is no way-!"
"We'll pay you back!" Miku, Rin and Len all said at once.
"Alright, alright!" the lead scientist agreed.
"Yay!" Miku and Rin exclaimed.
"Now, do you promise that, no matter what happens, you WILL pay me back?"
"Yes!" Miku, Rin and Len replied at once.
The lead scientist thought for a moment.
"Alright. Let's go shopping."
OOooOOoooOooooOOOoO
"Oooooh! That black and white dress looks sooo cute!" Rin exclaimed. Miku, Rin, Len and the lead scientist were out shopping for three headsets, a smoke machine, glitter and accessories for the three performers.
"We're not out to buy- hey, that suit looks pretty cool." Len remarked.
"Guys! Snap out of it! The only things we can buy are accessories! Oh, that teal dress is pretty cute." Miku said.
"Focus! Ah, here we are; the music store." The lead scientist said. He opened the door and everyone walked in. They noticed a few people go silent and start staring at Miku. Then, one person came up to Miku and said:
"C-can I have your autograph, H-Hatsune-sama?"
Rin and Len were puzzled.
"How do they know your name?" Rin whispered. "And 'sama'?"
"I did a performance at a rock concert." Miku replied.
"Wow, awesome, Nee-chan!" Miku turned back to the girl who asked for her autograph.
"Sure, what do you want me to sign?"
"Th-this picture I took of you on stage."
"Do you have a pen or something?"
"Um, yeah, just a sec." she took off the backpack she was wearing, took out a marker from the top pocket and handed it to Miku. Miku signed her name and wrote; "Have a nice day!" with a heart.
"Th-thank you, Hatsune-sama!" The girl bowed politely and ran off to the percussion section.
"Wow, Nee-chan! You're famous!" Len said, impressed.
"I was in the newspaper!" she replied. "Now, let's pick out a bass guitar, a drum set and an electric guitar!"
"Yeah!" Rin and Len exclaimed. They all set out to find the perfect guitar first.
"Hmmm… Oh! This one doesn't look too big!"
"Nah, too plain."
"I wanna teal one!"
"Geez, all these colors are so boring. Brown, red, beige…"
"How about we get a really plain one and just cover it in stickers?"
"That sounds like a good idea! That way, we don't have to spend as much money, too! Like, the less complicated ones are gonna be less expensive, too, right?"
"Probably."
"Oh! I found a good one! It looks to be about the right size." Len pointed out. Everyone crowded around the guitar Len was pointing to. It was brown.
"Oh, yeah, that really is good!"
"How much?" Len asked
"Hmm…" Miku checked the price tag. "¥16,800 [about $200]."
"That's not bad."
"Great! We'll get it!"
"Hang on, let me try it on." Miku took it off the display and put it on.
"I don't think you're allowed to do that." The lead scientist said, unsure.
"Do you see a sign saying not to?"
He didn't.
After Miku thought for a while, she made her final decision.
"Well, all I have to do is shorten the straps a bit and it'll be fine. Let's get it!" Miku exclaimed.
"Yay! Ok, next a drum set!" Rin said excitedly. She ran over to the percussion section.
"Ooooh! They all look so cool!" she exclaimed.
"We should really get a plain cheap one so we don't end up spending too much money."
"Aww. Fine." Rin pouted. "That one looks good! I'll check the price." She ran over to it and checked the price tag. "Hey, not bad! ¥37,800 [about $450]!"
"Not horrible." Len said.
"Yeah, but is it the one you want?" Miku asked.
"Yeah! Once I cover this baby with offensive stickers with bad words on 'em…" Rin smiled deviously.
"No way. No bad words!" The lead scientist scolded.
"Aw, come on!"
"Not even in our songs?"
"I bet even you listen to songs with bad words in them!"
"Yeah, and the fact that we know them means you programmed us to know them!" Rin exclaimed. The lead scientist grunted.
"Fine. Your songs can have bad words in them."
"Yay!" everyone cheered.
"Time for METAL MIKU!"
"SATANIST RIN! HAIL SATAN! FUCK YEAH!"
"Sexy Len. SPICE!"
"Umm…"
"Hey! You're only allowed to say bad words and raise naughty topics in your songs, ok?! And no screaming! This is a place with other people, you know!" the lead scientist scolded.
"Aww, come on!" all three of them protested.
"Ok, so anyway, we'll get these." Miku said, disappointed.
"Hey! Don't forget my bass!" Len whined.
"Oh yeah. Sorry." They went over to the section where the basses were located.
"Hmmm… That one!" he said, pointing to a huge black and white bass.
"That looks really expensive, not to mention way too big!" Miku said.
"Aw, come on!" Len pouted. "Alright. That one." He pointed to an all-black bass that was considerably smaller.
"Alright, that looks ok. I'll check the price." Miku went over to the bass and checked the price. "¥17,000. [about $200]."
"Not bad. Let's see if it's the right size." He took it off of the display and put it on. "Okay, not too heavy… I like it!"
"Great! Then we'll get it!" Miku exclaimed.
"Alright! Let's go pay!" Rin said, already running over to the cash register. The rest of them followed. When they got to the front of the line, their total was ¥73,200 [about $850] for the drum set and drumsticks, electric guitar and bass.
"I think we did pretty good!" Miku said. The lead scientist grumbled.
"Now let's get a smoke machine!" Len said excitedly.
"And glitter!" Rin replied.
"And headsets!" Miku added.
OOooooOoOOOO
They had finally gotten everything they needed for the concert when they returned to the lab.
"I'm making sushi for dinner." One of the female scientists said.
"Huh?" Len asked.
"What's that?" Rin asked. The scientist chuckled.
"You'll see!" She went into the kitchen.
"I'm hungry." Rin complained.
"Me too." Len said.
"Oh! Just go in the kitchen then! They have tons of food there!" Miku suggested.
"Really? Wow!" Rin and Len pictured a land in which everything was made out of food. They all ran over to the door leading to the kitchen and opened it.
"Oh." Rin and Len both said, disappointed.
"Oh, hi again! What do you need?" the scientist who was making sushi said.
"Well, there's food over- HEY! WHERE ARE MY LEEKS?!"
"Oh, um…" she stuttered.
"WHAT THE HELL?! I NEED LEEKS! NOW!
"Here, I'll give you, uh, ¥1,680 [about $20]. It's all I have right now. You can go buy leeks with that." She offered.
"Errg…" she growled. "Alright. Rin, Len, come with me." Miku grabbed both of their arms.
"Heyy!" they protested.
OoOoOooooOOO
"Ah, here they are!" Miku ran over to a refrigerator filled with leeks. Miku, Rin and Len were at a grocery store, looking for leeks and food items that would interest the twins.
"You threw a tantrum over these gross green things?" Rin said, scrunching her nose.
"Yeah. Eww." Len followed in Rin's example.
"What did you say?" she asked, trying to be as scary as possible.
"Hey, what are those orange things over there?" Rin ran over to a box of small round orange things in a box labeled "Seedless Tangerines". "T-tangerines?" She picked up the box. "Let's get these!"
"Huh?" Len walked over to see the box she was holding.
"See?" Rin showed him the box.
"Oh. Cool. Get them. Hey, what are those?" He ran over to the bananas. "I wonder what they taste like."
"What?" Rin said, running over to where Len was. He showed her the bananas.
"Cool. MIKU-NEE! WE HAVE TO PAYYY!" Rin shouted. Numerous people covered their ears and a large crack appeared in one of the windows.
"Rin. Don't. Ever. Do. That!" Len strained to say as he was doubled over in pain, covering his ears.
"Sorry…" Rin said guiltily. Miku staggered over to where they were standing, looking VERY unhappy.
"First… you insult my leeks… and then… you shatter my eardrums." She glared at Rin as she struck a cutesy guilty pose and gave her the puppy-dog look.
"C'mon, let's go pay." Len said, not wanting to be caught between Miku's glare and Rin's ear-splitting scream.
"You owe me a new eardrum, pint size."
"I'm sure you're fine."
"No, I'm not."
"Well, if you can hear me, then you're fine."
"Grrrrrr…"
"GUYS! LET'S PAY!" Len shouted.
"Hmm… fine. But the only reason I'm breaking this up is because I want my leeks." Miku followed Len to the cash register and Rin was close behind. They paid for everything and left.
"Gimme!" Rin grabbed the bag, took out a tangerine and looked at it, puzzled.
"How should I eat this?" she asked.
"How am I supposed to know?" Len replied rudely.
"Wait- I've seen the scientists eat these. You're supposed to peel the skin off." Miku said. She had pulled a leek out of the bag and was happily eating it.
"Oh! Thanks, Nee-chan!" Rin began to peel the skin off. When she was done, she noticed that you could break it up into different sections. She ate the first piece.
"Mmmm! Yummy!" she exclaimed.
"Lemme try a banana!" Len grabbed the bag and took out a banana. "How do you eat these, Nee-chan?"
"Oh! You're supposed to take off the skin of a banana, too, only you do this by grabbing the stem thing on the top." She replied.
"Oh! Thanks!" He did as he was instructed and bit it. "Mmmm. Good!"
"Gimme a bite!" Rin ran over to Len and stole a bite.
"Hey! I was eating that!" Len protested. "Gimme!" he stole the last remaining section of Rin's orange.
"Hey! That was the last piece!"
"Well you ate part of my banana!"
"At least I didn't have the last bite!"
"It doesn't matter!" They kept fighting until they got back to the lab.
"Hey." One of the scientists greeted. "Sushi's ready."
OOoooOOoo
"I'm nervous. What if something goes wrong?" Len asked. He had put his hair up in a ponytail for the occasion and was wearing a white headset.
"Oh, come on! It's gonna be awesome! Did you see the crowd?" Rin said, jumping up and down. She was wearing a large white bow in her hair, bobby pins to push her long bangs out of her face and a matching headset to Len's.
"That makes it all the worse." He muttered.
"Come on. You'll remember everything! We have computers for brains! We can't forget stuff!" They stood there until the curtain was lifted. The crowd roared at the sight of Miku. She began to sing "The World is Mine" with Rin on drums, Len on bass and she herself on guitar. They had decorated them with stickers of oranges, bananas and leeks with faces. The crowd sang along, having memorized every lyric. Then, Rin went to the microphone and sang the song she wrote called "Meltdown". When she was done, the crowd roared. Then Len sang the song he wrote called "Butterfly on your Right Shoulder". The crowd roared when he was done, too.
The concert was finally over an hour later. The crowd was roaring and the curtains were closed. They all collapsed.
"Oh… my… gosh. We… were… AMAZING!" Miku exclaimed, although she was talking to no one because both Rin and Len were sleeping. They look so cute! Miku thought.
"Guys. Wake up." She shook them and they slowly opened their sky blue eyes. Miku smiled.
"We were-!" She didn't have time to finish her sentence before she was tackled by Rin.
"OMYGOSHYOUWEREAWESOMEIWASAWE SOMEWEWEREAWESOMEITWASAWESOM E!" She exclaimed.
"Mph! MMMPH!" Miku protested.
"Oh…Sorry." Rin let go of her and Len laughed.
"Don't ever do that!" Miku shouted, but soon smiled. "Let's get something to eat!"
"Yeah!" They tried to leave, but a crowd of newspaper reporters and fans wanting autographs blocked their way.
"Are you going to be recording an album?"
"Outta the way! I need Miku's autograph!"
"Stop pushing, you idiot!"
"LEEEEEEN! Can I have a hug?"
"Rin! You're so unbelievably cute!"
"Miku, will you go out with me?"
"Len, will you marry me?"
"RIN! BE MY DAUGHTER!"
"You all are so amazing!"
"OUTTA THE WAY, CREEPS!" Rin shouted.
"Rin, they're just your fans!" Miku scolded.
"Sorry, but I just wanna go get orange cake!"
"Just sign a few autographs and then we'll go!"
"Fine." Moments after she said that, she was literally almost trampled by fans.
Five minutes later, they drew the line on how many autographs they would sign.
"ALRIGHT! THAT'S IT! EVERYBODY OUT!" Rin shouted. Everyone covered their ears and winced. They all left.
"You have GOTTA stop doing that!" Len scolded, wincing himself.
"Sorry."
"C'mon. Lets go get cake." Miku suggested.
