Yo Fanfiction, what up? Actually, don't tell me. But, uh, been a while, been a while, but during that while I thought again: WHAT. MAKES. A. GOOD. STORY. ?!

And then Kama said

"I hope you die a horrible, horrible death."

And then I thought:

"HOLY SHIT THE ANSWER WAS IN MY FACE THE WHOLE TIME!"

And now I'm actually going to get this story on track!

It's Not Easy Being DarkOppressor

The Vocaloids had been huddled in the refugee camp for a whole month since Miku went on her rampage. No word had been heard from the Utauyakibend army 3 days after Teto was sent back. DarkOppressor had gone into the woods and claimed that she was low on crumpets, but when she didn't return 2 days afterwards, the Vocaloids had come to the conclusion that she had wrestled a bear and died. It was still snowing, and food was starting to be scarce. Ike disappeared as well when he went into the woods to search for the body of the biased fan fiction writer. (Which is kinda weird, because he was supposed to be crucial to the plot.) Cold, hungry, and starving, the Vocaloids were all gathered around a bondfire, covered with thick layers of wool blankets.

"I remember when we were high-class celebrities in Tokyo living in a fancy-ass HQ with a heater and gourmet food that we always ordered but never really ate."

Meiko grunted.

"I miss those days."

Everyone muttered in agreement, all sighing at the same time.

"I bet you those Utauyakibend idiots are all dead. We should do something to get back to our daily lives."

IA said, crossing her arms.

"W-well, even if they did die, I'm sure they would have been revived by Master Crypton…"

Gumi suggested. Gackupo shook his head.

"That seems unlikely, considering that Miku probably has gained control of Master Crypton and his technologies."

Everyone muttered in agreement again.

"And that's why we have to go back to the HQ and fight that Yaoi fanatic to get our LIVES back!"

IA stood up, looking as if she were about to make one of those inspirational speeches.

"We can't live here! LOOK AROUND! We live in freaking tents, even though we're all fancy-ass celebrities that are ADORED by EVERYONE in JAPAN! We deserve better! We deserve CHANGE!"

The Vocaloids started to murmur amongst themselves, until someone started to chant;

"Vocaloids! Vocaloids!"

Soon afterwards, everyone else started to join in, and it turned into a heaping frenzy of angry Vocaloids, with IA as their leader.

"ALRIGHT! Settle down guys!"

Meiko growled. Everyone went silent. IA climbed up on top of a log to add to the bad-ass effect.

"Okay, so here's the plan! First, we need to get weapons."

The Vocaloids looked around at one another and some shrugged their shoulders as if to say "Weapons? What are weapons?" Realizing this, IA pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed. Waving her hand as if to dismiss the idea, she brought up a new idea.

"Okay, scratch that. We'll sacrifice Gumi."

The green-haired Vocaloid yelped.

"W-WHAT?! Why me?!"

Meiko snorted.

"Smart thinking, IA. Miku mentioned that she wanted to have someone make an erotic yaoi manga, and Gummy here is an amateur manga artist, right?"

Gumi looked hurt.

"I-I am, but that doesn't mean that I have to go and get eaten!"

Len spoke up.

"Yeah, just because of her ability, that doesn't mean that she has to risk her life for us! If any, she's better than most of us here anyway!"

Some angry mutterings came from the Vocaloids. IA shook her head.

"Maybe I should rephrase my words. Gum-gum draws erotic yaoi manga, we escort her and the manga back to the HQ and keep her from getting killed. She presents manga to Miku, and the problem is solved."

Kaito spoke up this time, with his hand raised.

"But didn't Miku want a manga with a specific pairing in it?"

Rin looked at him funny.

"Did she mention that before? I don't think she has."

Luka pitched in.

"I don't think she has, although you can consider this a plot hole since the writer is terrible at these things. The pairing was originally Ike and Len."

"But Ike is gone,"

Miki countered.

"The writer wrote him off for being an original character."

Len made a disgusted face.

"Ew, sorry, but I'm straight."

"For Gumi."

Kaito whispered to Rin. The two started to giggle. IA turned her attention to the banana-loving Vocaloid and raised an eyebrow.

"Really? That was rather brave of you to come out like that."

Len didn't get what she was trying to say.

"Eeeeeeewwwww, Lenny-Len's straight? Yuck!"

Rin exclaimed, holding her noise and looking as if she were to swat the stench away.

Len looked at his sister, puzzled.

"What…?"

Meiko snickered.

"Not being lesbian past grade school is sooo unacceptable."

Gackupo huffed.

"I think you mean not being gay is unacceptable in all ages."

Len looked around frantically.

"W-wait! Are you telling me that being straight isn't normal!?"

IA waved her hand dismissively.

"Okay, aside from Len's coming out of the closet there, he's gonna be gay whether he likes it or not."

Meiko faced Gumi.

"You can draw it without Ike right?"

Gumi looked horrified by all of this, but she quickly regained her composure and cleared her throat.

"No, I can't sadly…"

Sweet Anne shrugged.

"Why don't we draw one with Len and Kaito?"

IA shook her head.

"No, I'm sure that Miku won't accept anything other than Ike and Len getting it on. She can be pretty stubborn."

Everyone groaned.

"Maybe we should go into the woods and look for Ike then?"

Big Al suggested.

Everyone groaned even louder.

IA pinched the bridge of her nose.

Being leader is harder than it takes itself to be.

She thought, sighing.
