EVERY SINGLE VOCALOID: STAY TUNED FOR THE SEQUEL!

Chapter 7: Adventure Time!

I would have loved to sleep in all day. Thinking about last night and how happy it made me, just made me happy all over again. I would toss and turn and bounce around the bed, have a pillow fight with myself, and pretend to have an adventure under the sheets.

I would have loved to stay in bed all day, but as I was thinking about all the things I was going to do…

Luka happened.

"WAKE THE F*** UP YOU SON OF A B****! GET YOUR LAZY ASS OFF THIS BED RIGHT NOW, OR I'M GOING TO CRASH TACKLE YOU SO HARD YOU'LL FEEL PAIN IN PLACES YOU NEVER KNEW YOU HAD!" came a screaming voice amplified by a megaphone. The offending noise streamed into my ear and as soon as my brain processed the information, I retaliated. I was not getting out of bed just to continue with her plan.

"YOU GET OUT OF MY F***ING ROOM YOU F***ING EXCUSE FOR A FRIEND! YOU'RE SO LOW, CALLING YOU A B**** IS A COMPLIMENT!" I screamed back.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" wailed Luka, so high my ears nearly exploded.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I wailed back. We didn't mean anything we said, but it was hilarious and quite enjoyable just to scream out for ages. Once the echoing of the screams subsided… we burst into laughter.

"PHASE 2 COMPLETE! HAHAHA!" said Luka, still using the megaphone.

"What?"

"Well," she said, finally putting down the megaphone, "phase 1 was the song, phase 2 was to get all your frustration out, and phase 3 is adventure time!"

"I'm still not following, exactly," I murmured.

"Don't worry, I'll guide you to happiness!" said Luka in a way that I think was supposed to make me laugh. I didn't work.

"Anyway," she continued, "Rule 1 is to always be listening to some form of sound. Preferably music. Always. It keeps you happy. When have you seen me without my iPod? "

I thought about this. Actually, every time I saw Luka, she had her iPod in her ear. At the airport, at the party, and at the bar. Maybe she did have a point…hey, wait a minute… 'Back in Australia, I always listened to my MP3. Why not now?'

"Never actually, I've always seen you wear it."

"So…put yours on. "

I put my headphones on and turned on my MP3.

"CAN YOU STILL HEAR ME?" shouted Luka, just in case I couldn't.

"Um…yeah?" I said sarcastically. One of my better abilities was being able to hear well even with headphones on.

"Well then get ready because today's gonna be a big one!" she said excitedly and rushed off to wait for me.

(Luka POV)

It took a while for Luke to get ready, presumably because he desperately wanted to stay in bed. Wait, how did I know that? Never mind, the thing was that Luke was going to have the best day of his life today.

When he finally joined me, it had been twenty minutes!

"Oh well, some things take longer than others…" I mumbled.

"What was that?" Luke asked. Lucky he didn't hear.

"Never mind. Come on, we'll be late for the first adventure!"

We hopped on a bus and rode out of Tokyo and to a valley with a river at the bottom. On the way neither of us spoke, we just stared out the window, listening to music. The colours of the landscape changed from grey to green in an instant, and trees started to shade the road from the sun. Eventually a slight mist rolled in.

The bus stopped at a small tourist information desk and I tugged Luke's shirt to tell him that we had arrived.

When we stepped off, he looked around and sighed.

"This is it?"

"You said that last night," I replied.

"Oh, you're right. Sorry."

We made our way over to a bridge where there were people waiting.

"Luka-san!" shouted the all too familiar voice of Gumi.

"Gumi is also a qualified bungy-jump instructor," I whispered as we walked towards the bridge.

(Luke POV)

Did she just say 'bungy-jump'? I didn't want to know how Gumi got the qualification. With her determination, anything was possible for her. But what I did want to know was why Luka was making me bungy jump!

"You're joking, right. I've never done this before!"

"No, sorry. You're just going to have to deal with it head on. Literally." she said jokingly. How ironic it was that she answered the question, 'you're joking' with a joke. I wasn't in the mood for irony or jokes. However I was in the mood for pushing her off the bridge.

Gumi got us all saddled up and ready to jump. I was still way to freaked out to even hear her instructions. That made me freak out even more.

"Don't worry, just jump when they tell you to. Now listen closely. When you jump, I want you to play a piece of music you think fits the atmosphere. Got it?" Luka asked.

"Yeah…but-"

"Ah, I see you're ready," interrupted Gumi. "Let's begin with…Luke!"

"Wait, WHAT!" I shouted as I was forcefully lead to the drop-off area and had the bungy cord attached.

"Remember, the music!" whispered Luka before she stepped back. I could tell she was going to enjoy this.

Despite my nerves already severed long ago, I set my MP3 to 'Meltdown' and held it tight as I listened to the first verse.

"THREE!" shouted Gumi.

"TWO!"

"ONE!"

At this point I held my breath and shut my eyes.

"JUMP!"

And so I jumped. Just as the chorus started playing. And at that moment I had never felt so brave and yet so horrified at what I had done than I had ever felt before. I nervously opened my eyes after a few seconds and saw nothing. Just a grey, misty space around me. The wind was blasting into my face and the spray of water became heavier as I got closer to the valley below. One minute my face was drenched and the next the wind had dried it. The noise drilling into my ear was like the whistling sound a bomb makes when it's dropping and about to go off. I freaked out. I couldn't see where Luka, or Gumi, or the ground was. The confusion mad eme panick.

"Help, please! Anyone!" I screamed. My world was spinning, and it wasn't from the jump. I just wanted to die at that moment, for the bungy cord to break, to keep falling, and to plunge into the river while listening to 'Meltdown'. That would be the most spectacular death I could have imagined.

I fell for what seemed like the whole song. In fact it was only the length of the first half of the chorus.

As if to give me a taste of the death, the falling bomb exploded as I broke through the bottom of the mist and came face to face with the offending sound: the thundering rapids of the river below. I slowed down for a second, only to go back up through the hole I had made only moments before. But just as my heart had plummeted with the fall, it rose all the way to the sky on the way back up. When I looked back on the experience I just had, I realised that my heart had filled with adrenaline, but it had somehow managed to infuse the adrenaline with something else. I thought about it for a second and decided to officially declare myself mentally insane. I mean, how can music mix with adrenaline? It must have been something else that gave me chills of excitement down my spine.

I was rescued from the 'cord of fear' and Luka had her turn. She screamed with excitement as she disappeared into the mist. Compared to her, I looked like a baby.

After the jump, Luka pounced on me and dragged me back onto the waiting bus.

"That's weird, I thought it had left?" I asked, puzzled.

"It did, but it came back to take us to our next destination."

"NEXT DESTINATION!" I screamed. Like bungy jumping wasn't enough to freak me out, Miss Supportive told me that she had booked a few more wonderful 'spirit lifting' adventures.

Again, how ironic. As soon as she had mentioned 'spirit lifting', I began to feel my spirit sink.

And that's another chapter out of the way. I'm so excited, I can't wait to start! (seriously, I'm mentally trying to hold myself back from starting early)

Luka: Don't forget to review, pleeeeeaaaaaassssseeeee!

I don't know what you guys think of it, I'd really like to, cause all I see is the amount of hits I get. And we KNOW they aren't best way to tell me what you think is by reviewing! I'll accept PMs as well, if you prefer (although I don't know why you would)

See ya at the next chapter!
