Miku watched in horror as Len suddenly collapsed onto the floor, his blue eyes glazed over like he was in a trance.

"What did you do?" she shouted at IA, about to leap at her.

Luka just grabbed her by the arm and said, "Don't worry. He'll be fine. Right, IA?"

IA glanced back at them, her eyes now back to their normal color. She replied, "Yep. When he gets up, he should be able to remember everything. I just had to activate it in my spirit form, that's all."

Miku still didn't feel satisfied. Afraid that the two of them might suddenly attempt to take over the situation, she only let out a sigh of relief when Len started to stir. He picked himself up, clutching his head. He muttered, "What just happened?"

"Len, are you feeling okay?" Miku asked, rushing over to help him sit up.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm just feeling a bit light-headed. I can't really think clearly right now," Len replied as he massaged his forehead.

"Don't worry. It'll clear up in a few moments," IA reassured him.

Suddenly, a shriek pierced the air. Miku spun around, startled, only to find Rin staring at her brother, her eyes open so wide they could've fallen out of their sockets. She stammered, "W-what, what's this? What's Len doing here? A-am I dead?"

"Rin, don't worry. It's fine, just let us explain," Miku said, walking over and putting a hand on her shoulder. She started to untie Rin's bonds while explaining to her about the situation. She told her about how ghosts could form if they desperately had a wish they wanted to fulfill before their death, and how Len had found Miku and asked her to find the culprit who killed him. Additionally, she explained how IA, whom she introduced as Len's former friend, had somehow allowed Len to regain a material body. Rin started to massage her wrists, though she still looked warily at Len.

"So that's really Len?" she finally muttered, standing right behind Miku as if she still thought Len was some evil reincarnation.

Miku nodded.

"Then back there, at the house today, that was you?" Rin asked, directing the question towards Len.

Len glanced away before nodding tartly in response.

"And who else knew about this?" Rin demanded.

"Uh…" Miku hesitated before she replied, "Well…no one found out until you were kidnapped, so…"

Without warning, Rin stormed over to Len and wrenched him up onto his feet. Even Len looked surprised to see how much Rin had despite her skinny figure. She shouted, "Len you idiot! What pathetic excuse is that? I'm your sister, right? Why didn't you ask for my help first?"

Len stammered, "Ah, well, you couldn't see me, so—"

"You stupid banana head!" Rin said, suddenly pulling her brother into a hug. Len stood there, shocked, as Rin burst into tears and cried, "Do you think I can be angry at you now? I don't care about those stupid excuses! I don't care if it was suicide or murder! Those things never mattered! I…I just wanted to see you. That's all."

Slowly, Len put his arms around his sister, a sad smile appearing on his face. He said, "Well now I'm here, so don't cry, Rin. It's going to be all right."

As Len continued to comfort Rin, Miku watched the scene from the shadows. Inside, she felt a warm feeling inside her. Time and time again, she'd helped solve missing person cases, and whenever the missing person was reunited with his or her family, the scene was somewhat similar to the one before her. However, this had to be one of the first times Miku truly felt glad that the two siblings could meet again. Was it because she'd come to know both Kagamine twins, or was it because she was happy to see Len looking so peaceful?

A thought suddenly struck her. Surely Len knew his murderer had been IA. She'd even confessed right before him. Then, if that'd been his dying wish, then why wasn't he disappearing? Not that Miku wanted him to disappear. For the first time, she didn't want a ghost to move on to the next world, not to mention IA had said something about Len falling to hell.

"So everything turned out okay?" Kaito's voice suddenly said from the door.

Miku frowned and said, "That took you long enough."

"Hey, don't blame me. Piko got off at the wrong station, so I had to follow him, right?" Kaito defended himself just as Piko entered the room. Miku felt a faint stab of guilt at the sight of his bandaged head, but it didn't seem important as Piko's eyes fell on the scene before him.

"Piko! What happened to you?" Rin exclaimed, running over to Piko, her tears forgotten.

Just as she reached him, she seemed to remember Len. Sheepishly, she turned and said, "Uh, Len, I…"

"It's okay. I know," Len replied, sighing.

"You're not mad?" Rin asked tentatively.

"How can I get angry at my sister?" Len said, a smile appearing on his face.

Piko's cold voice suddenly ran through the air. "IA was the murderer?"

The church fell silent again. The storm seemed to be lifting, the sound of rain no longer that clear. Miku suddenly remembered how Len had talked about Piko's violent tendencies. It was quite easy to forget, especially when Piko acted so normal most of the time.

"Yes, I killed him," IA replied, her voice strangely calm.

A shadow seemed to fall over Piko's eyes. Len immediately stepped forward between Piko and IA. He said, "Piko, calm down."

"Calm down?" Piko asked back, his lips almost forming a sneer. "Oh, I'm calm. Calm enough to kill this evil bastard!"

Miku immediately leapt forward to stop Piko, but he just barreled right past Miku and Len, grabbing IA by her shirt collar in one swift motion. His hostile green eyes were glaring down at IA, who still looked solemnly composed. Piko sucked in a deep breath, his arm drawn back as if to hit her, when he suddenly shoved IA roughly back onto the floor and massaged his wrist. He snarled, "Or so I'd like to do, but Len caught you first, so it's up to him to decide you fate, not me."

A wry smile seemed to appear on IA's face, as if she'd known this would happen all along. She taunted, "So even you've caught the Len virus."

"What?" Piko snapped, but Rin immediately grabbed him before he could change his mind about not hurting IA. Miku almost smiled at the name of the Len virus. It was true though. Len seemed to have that power of infecting people with his optimism and kindness. Miku knew she was probably one of the few who were "infected," and somehow, she was glad of that.

"Well, I called the police and the ambulance just in case. Shall we get going?" Kaito asked, his eyes shifting from IA and Luka and back.

"Just give me one sec," Luka said, sliding over next to Miku. "I just want to say my goodbyes, and properly."

Kaito shrugged and got IA onto her feet, herding her out of the door, Rin following with Piko supporting her. Luka met IA's and gave her a reassuring glance before turning to Miku. Len held back, sitting back onto the floor as if he was still trying to clear his mind.

"So, this is goodbye?" Miku said hesitantly. The reality of this was starting to sink in now that it was all over.

"For now. Who knows, we might see each other sooner than we think," Luka smiled back.

"Did you want to tell me something?" Miku asked. She knew that look in Luka's eyes well enough to know she had something to say.

"You're still as smart as always," Luka said with a sheepish smile. A more serious expression appeared just a moment later as Luka bent over to whisper in to Miku's ear, "I'm trusting you to find the person who blackmailed us."

Miku nodded before asking a question that'd been on her mind. "What if that person had betrayed you already?"

"Then it's all the more reason to catch him," Luka replied, her tone cold. "Though it would make sense if he was the one who spilled the beans to Len."

Miku glanced over at Len. His eyes were shut tight like it was difficult for him to grab onto the specific memories he wanted.

"And also, find out the truth about what happened to Meiko, please?" Luka asked. "I still find it suspicious that Meiko would be killed right after Kiyoteru had, you know."

Miku nodded, seeing how the subject was still painful to talk about. Then she realized what Luka had just said. "By that, do you mean Kiyoteru has some relationship with Meiko?"

"They were just good friends, that's all. Meiko had some secret boyfriend she wouldn't tell me about after all. We never talked about it at the agency since it was a pretty painful subject to talk about," Luka explained, sighing.

"Yeah, I know," Miku said, remembering how hard it'd been to talk about her brother when she'd first joined the agency. She cheered up and said, "But don't worry, I'll get to the bottom of it."

"Hey, are you guys done?" Kaito suddenly called from the door. "The police are getting impatient."

Luka met Miku's eyes once before patting her shoulder with a smile. "Take care, Miku. And good luck."

With that, Luka followed Kaito out of the room. Miku stared solemnly at the retreating figures before moving over next to Len. She was almost glad she didn't have to see Luka taken in by the police. It might've made Miku regret coming here to this church to catch her.

Instead, she leaned over and asked, "So, remember anything?"

Len sighed, "I'm getting things slowly. I remember leaving the house and wandering town before going to meet up with IA and Oliver. We talked about the case before IA left and Kaito came, and I flat out accused him of running away from Meiko's house. I think that's probably when Oliver started shouting at me, but I just can't remember the details…"

"Well, we have plenty of time, I suppose," Miku said, sitting down next to him.

Len gave a start. He glanced over at Miku before suddenly saying, "Um, about what happened a few hours ago…"

"Hmm?" Miku asked. It was somewhat strange to think that just a few hours ago, she hadn't even known that IA and Luka were criminals. Then she remembered the time Len had shouted at her. She mumbled, "Oh, that time."

"Uh, yeah, about that," Len stammered, unsure of how to say it. "I…I didn't mean to say it like that."

"No, it's fine," Miku mumbled back, not looking over at Len. "You made me realize all the faults I have. I haven't thanked you for that."

"No, you shouldn't be thanking me. I apologize for being so harsh," Len muttered, scratching his head as he glanced in the other direction.

There was a long awkward silence after that, one that neither of them really knew how to break. After what seemed like a millennia, Len's crisp voice rang through the church as he asked, "Um, about that letter, was it true?"

It took Miku a full minute before she nervously mumbled, "Yeah."

"I see," was Len's only reply. Miku stole a glance at him. He was smiling.

Immediately she demanded, "What's so funny?"

Len was still smiling, but he hastily replied, "No, nothing, it's just…"

Suddenly, he winced, his hand shooting up to his forehead. Miku worriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Len's eyebrows furrowed together as he mumbled, "I remembered."

"What?"

"The person who told me about IA and Luka, he made me promise to never confront them about it, but I…I broke that promise and went looking for them immediately," Len stammered as he held his head, looking like he was in lots of pain.

"And who was that?" Miku asked, forgetting about the awkwardness from before and grabbing Len's shoulders to keep him upright. He looked like he was going to faint.

Len's cerulean blue eyes met Miku's as he slowly turned his face to look at her. Miku once again felt herself enraptured by those clear, shining blue orbs, but she forced herself out of it. She held her breath as Len slowly replied, "The one who told me was—"

A screeching bang tore through Miku's ears, her eyes widening in shock as her breath caught in her throat. She watched as Len's eyes constricted before slowly looking down at his own body.

The bright red splotch that was starting to flower over his stomach was unmistakable. Len let out a shaky gasp as he turned to look at Miku again. Her hands were shaking like crazy as Len breathed, "Miku."

And he collapsed in her arms.

A/N: I just reread this, and I realized something. This chapter begins and ends with Len collapsing...

Anyways... I lost count of how many chapters I've written and what time was... Plus, this got longer than I thought, like Len getting shot should've been in the middle of this chapter... I'll continue it later I guess...

I hope you all enjoyed the chapter (though enjoyed might be the wrong word...) Thanks for reading and for your support! And please review! Thanks again!
