Looking for You in the Sky
Vocaloids gone missing…
Third Absence: Where She Lay
Reality. It is impossible to escape, but what of the world of vocaloids? Is it not a world of their own making? This place of icy-blue stone with crystals lighting the darkness, could it really be a creation of reality, or something far more magical and unreal? To Miku, it had seemed like a dream come true of some sort. A place of light and sound amongst darkness and silence. Where her voice wouldn't echo into nothing, further emphasizing her loneliness. Or would reality come crashing down; bring her down from the clouds of dreams to earth? To reality.
She now lay bleeding and broken, her blood tainting the ice-blue of the stone. No longer did she wish to sing in rejoice. No longer did she wish to dance. Once again, she realized she was all alone…
The beast had slain her, in a manner of speaking. It had broken her already crumbling spirit. She no longer held the strength to jump across the stone platforms to the main cavern. She was locked on a small island of stone which seemed to float above the water, the crystals circling around it like the towers of a castle.
Even in this manner, she was still beautiful. Her long hair draping around her, drop-shaped stains the color of blood dotting her here and there.
After a long time, she finally gathered her will together enough to stand. Using her staff for support, she rose to gaze out into the abyss surrounding her, her posture echoing of a lost regality. A lost dream. Eyes hidden behind her mask, there was no one to see her squeeze them shut as the tears threatened to break through her smiling composure. But she wasn't smiling anymore, anyways. It was all she could do to close her eyes and keep the salty liquid behind bars.
Miku… didn't wish to be alone. She missed her friends so much… Her heart ached in loneliness and remorse. Sadness and silent grief.
She didn't wish to be alone. She missed her friends so much…
The beast didn't like seeing her sad. It had loved her when she'd danced and sang in a brief moment of hope. If she wanted friends, then…

If you've watched the video, then you probably know what happens next, but if you haven't, I'll keep it a secret^^
Sorry this one's so short… The next one will be, too, but hey. It's the story that counts ;D
Thoughts? Comments? Confusion? Please review and send feedback on how you think the story is so far and any suggestions as to how I could possible include "Love is War" because I really want to but can't figure out how just yet…
