It's Friday and about five o'clock in the afternoon. Evening is by the corner and Punkish is prepping himself for his performance with Pen.

Is today really the day? It feels much too soon. A crowd with millions than before; over twice as many, more than five times when Punkish performed with Jersey. His first staging was enough to make him a nervous wreck and his palms all sweaty.

This feeling is more than nervousness, fear is peeking from within. He holds in his breaths for thirty seconds and exhales until there is no air left to breathe out.

A young lady is at the other side of the room, putting on makeup on Pen. Does he really need any? There is no difference and his face looks the same. The makeup artist leaves and the android wipes the makeup off a towel.

"How are you holding up?"

Punkish jolts to the side of his chair, digging his nails onto the vanity.

"I don't know…" But he does know. Punkish's heart beats fast and the fear inside grows stronger. The first act with millions of people and live, live with everyone staring at the television from work or at home or at a restaurant.

"Twenty more minutes!" Meiko announces as she walks past the doorway.

Twenty more minutes not enough, twenty more hours would be better.

"I ne-need water. I'll be back." The young teen runs out from the room, dashing in search for water. He bumps into Pin, Append Rin, and requests for directions where the water is. She holds up a water bottle and hands it to Punkish.

"Already got one on me. I'm distributing water to everyone. Try not to drink too much, there's only fifteen minutes left."

Even if the boy wishes to drink the entire bottle, he can't. His throat is tight and he sips enough to suffice a hamster. Punkish wanders to the nearest restroom, 'Am I going to puke…? I feel so sick.'

He stands still in front of a mirror for a whole seven minutes until Pen walks in.

"Our show is almost starting, come on."

"I can't, I can't. I can't do this. I'm scared, I'm scared of messing up." The young teen fumbles, holding his head in his hands. He can hear the sound of his own heartbeat, swallowing hard and gulping enough water for his dried mouth.

Pen gently nudges the boy out the restroom, "You can do this. We practiced well enough. I promise you won't mess up."

Three minutes are left and both boys stand behind a long curtain. Punkish's head races, his heart skips a beat at Meiko's public notification.

The mental timer hits zero.

"Kagamine Len Append and Punkish will be performing 'Time and Limit.'"

The stage roars with noise of excitement as the curtains unveils the two boys!

Punkish is first to dance, his back facing Pen from behind. He spins and runs up to the android, holding their hands and linking arms. Pen is then first to sing and Punkish second. Their vocals flow in unison and the young teen's fears and worries subside.

He's impressed at how smooth and in sync his words flow with Pen, unable to believe that he's singing alongside with the android. Their movements quicken and the two swiftly turn together. They dance apart and walk backwards together, their backs nearly touching.

The young teen spins to face the back of the stage and the android runs ahead.

'Wait… where's the… frame?'

Nothing more but a large screen stands behind. Punkish struggles to reach out to Pen, his body becoming stiff.

The android jumps inside the large monitor and appears much bigger than before.

Astonishment steals Punkish's breath away and time feels frozen. His knees tremble, gasping in air and taking one step forward. His friend waves goodbye to the audience and motions Punkish to run up to him.

With no hesitation, Punkish runs up to his friend. Pen jumps out from the monitor, making their last dancing debut and raising their hands in the air for the closing.

The audience cries and cheers and the duo bow.

Punkish steals a glance of his friend, heavily breathing. Witnessing something so magical and fascinating, he smiles wide in elation.
