NOTE: This Fanfiction begun while there was still not much information about Utatane Piko. His personality and all reactions to the many different things in this fanfiction were solely my choice.


Piko jumped back and gripped his head, the girl's scream shocking him and the sudden movements of his body creating more spasms through his limbs. He cried out in pain and curled up in a ball again, trying to calm down again from the electric shocks coursing through his body. 'Calm down, calm down, calm down!'

The blonde girl just stared wide eyed, staying stock still and unsure of what to do. The boy whom she had thought had frozen to death was alive and awake and currently seemed to be having some sort of fit. Was it her scream that had done that? Whatever it was the boy's panic obviously wasn't helping. "Um, h-hey! It-It's alright..." she called out, not quite sure what to do. "I didn't mean to frighten you. Please calm down!"

Digging his fingernails into his head the snowy haired boy, taking in deep shaky breaths and twitching every so often. "Wh-who are you?" he asked just above a whisper, voice slightly shaky.

She wandered over to him and placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt ya." She attempted to keep her voice quiet and calm and not scare the boy into another fit. Well she thought it was a boy since his voice had a slight hint of boyishness in it or whatever you would call it. "My name is Dori. How...how are you still alive?"

Piko looked up at her, his hands still gripping his head and his right arm twitching slightly. "What-what do you mean?"

The blonde sat on the floor and folded her arms. "Well when I found you, you were just about frozen solid. I guess the fire I made thawed you out, although it was meant to just take the chill off the air for when I got back. Didn't think it was possible for a human to thaw out so easily like that."

Blinking, the boy slowly sat up, ignoring the twitches in his limbs as much as he could. "You b-brought me here?" he asked, tilting his head to one side. "Um...th-thank you."

"Meh, it's nothing," shrugged the blonde before grabbing a nearby log and throwing it on the small fire. "So what's your name? How'd you get out in the snow? And why the hell aren't you dead?"

Piko's eyes were on the fire, watching it as it laughed at his fear. "I was called Piko. And-and I got lost in the country so I'm trying to get home so that my family won't have to worry about me." He looked up at her. "As for your last question." Shifting his eyes to the ground he added, "I was certain that I would never wake up again..."

"I'd imagine so. Mother Nature can be so cruel to some this time of year."

The boy blinked. "Mother Nature?"

"Don't tell me ya never heard of Mother Nature?"

Piko shook his head, a clueless look on his face.

"Well Mother Nature is the one who controls the weather, creates the plants, and that sort of stuff. And I thought you city folk were supposed to be smart."

"O-oh. Well I don't really know that much about, um, stuff."

Dori made a 'hn' sound, grabbing another log and adding it to the others before pulling her lighter out of her pocket and setting the new log on fire. It was then that she remembered that she had the small bun in her pocket still and quickly reached and pulled it out. It was only small and breaking it in hard would make it even smaller. But it would just be rude of her to just eat it and ignore Piko. Crystal blue eyes glanced up at him, seeing him attempting to stop his left leg from twitching with a pout on his face. It made her wonder just why he kept twitching like that. Was it a side effect from being frozen? Or was it something he was born with. She shook her and began trying to break the bun in half, one of the halves slightly larger than the other, and held the larger half out to the boy. "Here," she said absentmindedly while munching on her own half.

Piko's teal eyes blinked at the bun and he reached out and gently took it, giving a 'thank you' and looking at it before taking a small bite from it. It had a rather plain taste and was a little dry but if it was food then it was good. It was food after all. And food was meant to help keep you going, right? His hand twitched suddenly, making him drop the bread. A frown crossed his features as he picked it back up. These twitches were going to get annoying.

The blonde noticed the boy twitch again and cocked an eyebrow. "So what's with the twitching?" she asked, unable to hold her curiosity any longer.

Shaking his head, the Vocaloid replied, "I'm not sure. But I know it has something to do with when I was in the snow." And it needed to be seen to soon, meaning he would have to leave as soon as possible and continue on to the city. Although he would probably end up being slower than he was when he was last out in the snow if he kept getting attacked by twitches or large amount of spasms when in a state of shock or fear. That would definitely not help since he had once jumped up at the sound of a cow going 'moo'.

"So you haven't always had it?"

Piko shook his head then gave Dori a look. "Why are you asking me so much, anyway?"

"Am I not allowed to ask questions to a boy who I thought was dead when I found them frozen solid!" Dori snapped, giving Piko a glare and becoming a little defensive.

"S-sorry," he mumbled, looking down at the floor as his right shoulder twitched. He didn't mean to offend her but all she was doing was asking him questions, and honestly made him feel a little awkward. Unless that was how a lot of humans spoke. He hadn't had that much interaction with humans, not as much as he would have liked anyway. "I-I'm just not use to people..."

Dori scoffed. "You think I am? I been stuck in this old crap shack for most of my life."

Piko blinked. "Crap shack?"

Shaking her head while chuckling, the blonde hit him lightly on the head in a playful manor. "You're not too bright, are ya? I guess with all them gizmos they have in that there city make people feel like they don't need to know stuff."

The boy just put on a blank face. Why did people keep calling him a 'city folk'? He hadn't even stepped foot in this so called city. Unless that room he was in when he woke up was in the city. Although his home was located in the city. So really he was a city folk. But his name was Piko, not city 'folk'. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, frowning at the fact that it was still pretty wet. They boy grabbed a few locks and squeezed them in his hand, watching as water just about poured at and landed on the floor. 'That was a lot of water...' Piko mused, wiping his now dripping wet hand on his coat. "So why are you here by yourself? From what I know, most children live with parents," he questioned, having done a quick scan.

"I ran away," Dori replied, simply as if it were nothing, her crystal blue eyes staring into the fire. "My so called 'parents' couldn't give two shits about me. Too busy yellin' at each other. So I ran away from home…" She paused to take a bite out of her bun, chewed it then swallowed it. "And I wandered across this small place. Seemed abandoned so I moved in."

"Oh…" Piko's eyes cast down to the ground, ignoring the fact that his fingers wouldn't stop twitching on his right hand. "Isn't it lonely? Living here by yourself…"

Dori made a 'psh' sound and waved a hand. "Not really. There're a lot of animals out here that I connect with." She put two fingers in her mouth and whistled loudly before turning to the silvery haired boy and flashing a smile. There was a chirping sound then a small round robin managed to squeeze through a small gap by the door and fluttered over to the blonde. "Ya see? This little guy's been a friend of mine for quite some time. He was the one who found you in the snow."

Piko blinked at the small creature then smiled softly. "Really? This small thing found me?"

"Yup. If it wasn't for him then you would probably still be out frozen solid."

"Thank you so much." The robin tilted its head to one side and chirped, hopping over before fluttering onto Piko's head. The boy giggled softly at this before his eyes cast over Dori who was lying down. "What are you doing?" he asked curiously.

"Going to sleep," she replied, turning on her side so that she was facing away from Piko. "I'm tired from walking to town and back."

"There's a town nearby?"

"A few hours walk away from here." A wide yawn passed through the blonde's lips as she shut her eyes. "Now shaddup I need to sleep."

Piko gave a small nod despite the fact that he knew she couldn't see it and laid down, himself, the robin hopping off of his head and flying out of the shed. He lay on his back; his hands placed on his stomach and just let his eyes slowly slip shut. He may have been in sleep mode, but his body still occasionally twitched. It was late in the night when one of his twitches suddenly let off a small spark. The spark fell upon one simple strand of hay and caught fire, the flames quickly spread to nearby hay, creating a large blaze. The moment the smell of smoke reached the silvery haired Vocaloid's nose it set off an automatic reaction, waking him up instantly. He gasped, jolting up, his whole body twitched and his eyes wide as he stared at the flames, a look of fear and worry washing over his face. This fire…was much bigger than the others he had seen and quite frankly, it terrified him. He couldn't bring himself to move a single limb, aside from the involuntary twitching.

The flames just continued to grow bigger and eventually Dori woke up. She sat up just as quickly as the boy had only she was able to do something other than stare. "Shit!" she cursed, scrambling to her feet. "Shit! Shit! What the hell happened!" Her panicked blue eyes turned to Piko, only to see him in a frozen state of panick, himself. She cursed under breath, took a quick glanced about then grabbed the boy by the wrist and pulled him to his feet. "C'mon! We gotta get outta here!" she cried and dragged him out of the burning shed. After taking one last glance at the shed she pulled the still shocked Piko down the road, quickly, not really thinking of what she was doing.

The shed was left there, now completely engulfed by flames.


One week after I submitted my request, Piko's name is now on the character list :D I mean we can't have people writing about him and not even have his name there like with Luki/Luke. Although there aren't really that many fics Luki/Luke based though.

Anywho~ I'm not too fond of the way this chapter started off but I tried editing it and got an even worse result so I kept it how it was.

The end however I do like :3…sorta….. Sigh~ why am I so cruel to Piko despite how much I love him? BECAUSE IT MAKES GREAT ENTERTAINMENT 8D

Thank you again to those who reviewed the last chapter and helps keep this fic alive

~~Review Please~~
