A/N: Sorry for the wait!

---

Miku stared off into blank space as she woke up that morning, her eyes half way to no where, completely spaced off. She nodded her head off the side. The kitten licked her nose and mewed. Rin walked in, and air from the door hit her like thousands of needles poisoned with grief on the tips. Miku slowly sat up. "Neh, Miku, are you okay?" Rin asked, walking over to her.

She nodded slowly. "Rin…" she said softly.

The blond blinked. "Yes? What is it? Do you need anything…? You seem different today," she pointed out.

Miku shook her head slowly, not even bothering to force up a smile. "I want to go see my home again… The one where we first met…" she said slowly.

Rin smiled some, then nodded. "Okay. Get up and get dressed then," she said, still smiling.

Miku nodded slowly. 'Everything caught up with me at once… Far too fast for me to regret anything…' she thought to herself as she tossed her legs over the side of the bed, a movement needed for her to get up.

She slowly got rid of her clothes, the ones she had borrowed from Rin at least, replacing them with her own rags and cloak. Rin blinked in confusion. "Sorry… I feel more comfortable in these when I walk around and about," she said, her voice mono toned.

Rin nodded slowly, the smiled, somewhat crookedly. "Okay then. Whatever you say, Miku," she smiled.

Miku blinked once, then slowly started walking out of the room and out of the house. It was groggy out that morning, clouds grey in the sky, as if they were about to poor down rain. 'The sun has always been hidden forever from my sight…' She started walking, Rin following close by her. 'My sun… My sun is… I have to…'

She bit down lightly on her lip. Rin didn't seem to notice, though she squeezed Miku's hand tightly. Miku continued along, dragging her feet. As soon as they stepped into the forest, there was a distant thunder. Rin shuddered slightly, pulling Miku's arm close. A flock of crows squawked, flying away. Rin stopped for a moment, watching the birds fly past them. Miku continued, making Rin follow her.

They stopped in front of the pond, the one that was now covered in fallen leaves. Rin smiled, then ran over and picked up a whole flower. She smiled, pressing her nose to the tip of the petals and taking in the scent. She held it out to Miku. "Isn't it pretty?" she questioned.

Miku slowly reached her hand out to touch it. As her finger tips lightly grazed it, the flower petals fell off, dying instantly. She shrunk back. Rin blinked. "How strange," she said, dropping the remains sadly, but them smiling brightly at Miku.

Miku shrunk back more. 'The sun has always blinded me…' she thought.

"Rin, why don't you sit down…? I'll brush your hair," she said, kneeling down on her knees.

Rin nodded, then sat down in front of her. Miku pulled out a comb, grazing it through Rin's hair. It cut through easily. She suddenly pictured blood, and a dead blond in her arms. She closed her eyes, biting her lip and squeezing the comb, then continued running the bristles through Rin's hair. 'My sunlight…' she thought bitterly as she continued. 'I knew it wouldn't last…'

The blond hummed softly, oblivious to Miku's thoughts. Miku stopped the strokes of the brush after a while. "Rin…" she murmured.

Rin blinked. "What is it, Miku?" she asked.

"Stand up and close your eyes," she said slowly.

Rin batted her eyes lids, then pouted. "Why?"

"It's… Just do it… Please," Miku replied softly, hesitantly.

The blond paused for a moment, then stood, turning to face Miku before closing her eyes. "Okay, they're closed," she said.

Miku cracked her knuckles, reaching her hand out to the side. The scythe formed in her hand, and she held in front of her, narrowing her eyes. 'Rin… please stop me…' She thought, closing her eyes, then opening them upon raising them up.

A single tear grazed down Miku's cheek, and as if on queue, when the tear dropped and the scythe was being lowered quickly, Rin opened her eyes, blinking. Miku closed her own eyes, swinging the scythe down. In just a few moments, the tip of the blade was covered in blood, and a large gash was carved down her chest, from the tip of the collar bone to her belly.

"…Miku…" she choked out, a small bit of blood trickling down from her bottom lip.

Miku shivered slightly at the sound, then slowly opened her eyes, tears forming quickly in the corners of her eyes. Rin slowly smiled, opening her mouth to say something, though no words came.

Len blinked slowly, looking into the mirror. He put his head down, closing his eyes and yawning. "Len…"

He looked up, seeing Rin in the reflection. "Rin, what are you doing ho--…" he blinked, seeing nobody behind him.

He bit his lip, clenching at his chest as droplets of water dripped from his eyes. "Why…?" he brought his fingers up to catch a few before falling to the ground on his knees.

The kitten walked in. It meowed loudly, almost sadly. Len shook slightly, reaching over and rubbing it's head before picking it up and hugging it to his chest. The kitten purred softly, in a comforting sort of way. Len continued to stroke his hand down it's back, shaking violently with soundless sobs.

Rin reached her hand up to graze Miku's cheek her hands stained with her own blood as she collapsed side ways onto the ground. Miku choked slightly on her own air, dropping the scythe, which disappeared before it could collide with the ground. She kneeled down, almost falling. Her hands ran over Rin's body, though didn't touch. "I…" She started, but couldn't find any words to say, so instead she bit down on her lip. She bit down hard, until she could feel it bleed.

She panted slightly, trying to keep the sobs under control, but failed miserably in the end. Miku let out a loud sob, not able to tell if she was actually sobbing or screaming from the ringing agony in her chest. She shook her head slowly, trying to shake thoughts out of her head. "Why smile like that? Why be so kind and tender when I did this!?" she screamed into the air, to know living soul that could hear as tears fell down her cheeks.

She bowed her head down, hearing a loud ring of thunder, following by the pounding of rain against her head and the ground. She wrapped her arms around herself, biting down on a different part of her lip. The blood on the ground and on Miku's hands became watery, and it blurred away from Rin's body. Miku slowly reached her hand out, then the other, picking up Rin's body in her arms and hugging it tightly to her, letting out a loud sob, gripping tightly onto Rin's lifeless arms with her hands, making her knuckles turn white.

Thunder clashed, making a loud crack and bright lights with the mixed in lightning. Miku let out a deafening scream that matched the thunder's roar. She released the dead Rin, falling onto her side and curling up, trying to find any way to escape sorrow.

The rain poured down for hours, and Miku screamed until she lost her voice temporarily. She coughed, failing as she tried to continue screaming, her body shuddering and shaking. After a moment, after her shuddering had ceased, she sat up, looking over at Rin. Her tears were dry now. She couldn't cry anymore. She gripped Rin's dead hand in her own, leaning over her. She pressed their foreheads together. "Why would you smile after that?" she questioned, her voice raspy and shaky.

She pressed a light kiss to Rin's lips, then pulled away, standing up. "Luka!!" she screamed soundlessly.

Luka sat in a canoe, rowing from side to side along a river. In it were floating candles, lanterns of sorts. Her pink hair draped over her shoulders slightly, and she looked back at the dead blond. "You poor thing. I'll take your soul to a good place," she said softly.

Luka turned back to the water, continuing to row. She blinked, turning back when she felt a tug on the ribbon to her robe. Her eyes widened slightly, and she sighed. "Release me, child," she said, staring down at the pale hand.

A/N: Cliffy neh~? Aaah.. That was depressing… At least I got it up!
