AN: Hey everyone,

I hope you enjoy this chapter, it's my longest one yet, and probably the most intense.

Chapter 5, due to unfortunate circumstances may be released a day or two late. Very sorry... I can upload a filler, but this writer's block, probably from lack of sleep, is making it difficult to think of some ideas. If you need a filler/summary please PM me. Of course, it's temporary until Chapter 5 comes out. Thanks for being so patient.

The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku – Chapter 4 – The Emotion

"Kaito, what is going on?" Gakupo asked Kaito, now he was aware of the situation.

"I don't know" replied Kaito blankly. It had been a day since Kaito and Len had discovered that Miku was missing and the always vacated living space was now filled with worries, fear, jealousy and malice.

Len and Rin had been and their room for the past day, not even coming out to eat. Luka had been walked back and forth trying to find out how this could happen and Kaito was still in despair. Gakupo was confused and a little dazed by the sudden change of environment and no-one had seen Meiko since she stormed off to her own bedroom, which was unusual for Meiko since she was very sociable and didn't like to be alone.

"Why… why don't I get us a- a cup of tea?" Luka suggested in an unsteady voice trying to pull a smile to reassure everyone.

Luka rushed off to the kitchen and more fiddled with the kettle and tea bags than making tea.

Rin was sitting lying on her bed. Even though she was more composed than most when the news broke out among the house, she had mixed fillings and it was messing with her head. Len was sitting in the corner of the bedroom looking out the window. Rin was concerned for her Brother; she had never seen him like this. But, she knew she couldn't worry about him when she was already feeling mixed from mood swings and mixed emotions. She was filled with worry about Miku, because even though she didn't act like it sometimes, Miku is one of the closest to Rin, but, with her gone, could this mean that maybe, just maybe, she could be on top for once? She fiddled with her sleeves and turned on her side.

Len was feeling sick and somewhat emotionally affected over Miku's disappearance, and people seemed to notice that he wasn't feeling so hot. Being his usual cheeky but caring self, it was unusual seeing him being anti-social and closing himself up, especially to his sister. Rin got up from her bed and walked to her computer.

"What are you doing?" Len asked expressionlessly. He didn't look away from the window, not even to look at Rin.

"What do you think I'm doing Len?" She yelled, looking directly at Len.

"In fact, I should be asking the exact same thing! What the hell are you doing? Huh? One minute you're skipping around and learning the stupid song and the next, you're completely oblivious to anything except for yourself! Explain that to me, Len!" She cried.

The room was silent and Rin was glaring at Len in a way that she never thought she would.

"Go" said Len from the corner.

"I don't want you near me, Rin! Just go away!" Len retorted.

Meanwhile, Meiko was in her room. She was sitting on her bed motionlessly, she hadn't had a drink for days and all of the things that she missed were washing over her in one big hit. She knew about Kaito now, and also about Len and Rin. Being close friend with Kaito and Luka, she thought that they wouldn't go behind her back, not even to just keep something that may have hurt her away. She blinked and thought about how Kaito had been obsessing over Miku and overall, Miku's disappearance. She was sure that he wouldn't give a fat rats' if she had left for two days. But, no, Miku was the centre of everyone's attention, the Vocaloids, Director-san and Master and it would be to the public too, if she could even talk to the press at all. It was horrible, to all of them, they had to continue singing and practicing and planning shows even if Miku was potentially in danger. Even Meiko thought it was low. But, Meiko hadn't got anything to sing in a long while, and she felt almost that all the public preferred anyone else except for her, but Master and Director-san would never even think of put any emotional pressure on the Vocaloids, it was too risky. Meiko finally got up and drowsily walked into her bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was blotchy and pale, her eyes were developing rings and she just looked exhausted. She got into the shower and mostly just stood there, like she had when she was sitting on her bed. She thought about Kaito and her growing up and how they would go the park and swing on the swings for hours, and then finally, after the other kids started to come, Kaito would count to three and they would leap off the swings and land in the sand, and how It was usually Kaito who didn't go at the count of three and laughed when Meiko face-planted in the sand. And then, they would walk a couple blocks to their house and Kaito would sing to Meiko and tell her she was beautiful. Then Meiko would laugh and say that Kaito looked like a dropped pie. And… and…

Meiko slipped down the shower wall onto the floor and cried.

'What happened Kaito? What ever happened to my Oji-sama?'

She slowly reached to the faucets and turned them off and crawled out of the shower and wrapped herself with a towel. She slowly hobbled into her room and slipped on a long, strapless, satin nightgown that left a train behind her. She lay on her bed and sung what Kaito used to sing to her as a girl.

Anata wa~

Ima doko de nani~

Wo shite imasu ka~ ?

Kono sora no tsuzuku basho ni imasu ka~?

Ima made watshi no kokoro qo~ umete ita mono~

Ushianatte hajimete kizuita~

Meiko buried her head into her pillows.

Rin ran out of the room with tears streaming down her face. She fell to the ground and cried into her hands. Luka was the only one in the living space, sipping her tea. She quickly set it down and rushed to Rin.

"What happened, Rin?" Luka asked, bending down to Rin.

"Len kicked me out" Rin cried into her hands.

"I'm sure Len is just going through... A phase" Luka tried to reassure her.

"You can stay with me until he gets over it; I think I have a spare mattress somewhere…" Luka trailed off, walking into her room.

'What's up with him?' Rin thought, resting her head in her knees.

'I know Len better than anyone else, and nothing could get him like this… I don't understand'

Rin sat on the floor for a while, her head was spinning and she really wasn't sure what to do… Miku, her best friend, is missing – but with her out of the way, Rin could go to the top… and she's so confused about her brother… and devastated, too. With Len acting up like that too, Rin didn't have someone that she could cry to. Even though Luka is a close friend, Luka gets awkward in sad situations.

On top of that, she couldn't go out of the house because of Miku's sudden disappearance and she also needed to learn the new song… which meant even more to her now, because it was a duet with Len…

Rin got up and wiped her eyes and retied her hairband.

She slowly walked into Luka pale rose bedroom and watched Luka setting up a mattress on the floor. Rin smiled, to know that someone cared for her so much. She walked out of Luka's bedroom to make an herbal tea for Luka. She gathered all the little jars from the drawers and boiled the kettle. She carefully scooped out some lavender, rose petals, tea leaves and raspberries. She poured the boiling water over the herbs into the little floral teacup. It turned a dark, but soft purple. She picked it up in her hands and walked back into Luka's room.

"I made you some tea" Rin said hoarsely.

"Oh, thanks" Luka replied, scooping it up from Rin's burnt hands.

"Your bed is ready, please come in here as you wish, I'll leave it unlocked"

Rin nodded in thanks and walked into the bathroom as Luka went outside, and knocked on the door to Gakupo's room.

"Gakupo" Luka said, opening his bedroom door.

Gakupo walked slowly over to Luka and looked into her eyes. Without hesitation, Luka slid her fingers into Gakupo's long, silky hair.

He leaned forward and…
