As soon as it was morning I woke up -7:43 AM to be exact.
I crept downstairs, avoiding squeaky steps on the stairs and I ran outside. Man, if they found out that I'm a Kagamine then I'm dead. Seriously. Good thing I only said my first name and they didn't ask my surname or else I won't make it out of the Oshiro residence alive!
"Hmmm... I have no contact of Rin whatsoever so I have no idea how to go to her." I told myself. "Oh right! She's at the prison!" I went to the prison to go to her and to release her because even if she attempted to kill me, she'll always be my sister.
"Can I visit my sister? I'm Len Kagamine." I asked the police.
"Haven't you heard the news?! She escaped and now we're searching for her!"
"Oh..." Damn, how am I supposed to warn her now...'Think! Think!' I thought about a plan until I got one. "Shall I help you search for her?"
"Will you?" He asked so I assured him.
"But I have go to her prisonmates first!" I told him then he allowed me so I ran to her prison mates.
"Hey..." I said at first but they weren't paying attention so I shouted. "Hey!" Then everyone looked at me.
"Who's Rin Kagamine's friend here?" I asked them then they pointed at a very mysterious looking girl. She has a dark violet hair that is very long and she looks very pale. "Hey, do you know where she is? I have to warn her about something."
The girl looked at me, then she put her hands on my nose. "Hmm... you're not lying. Okay, but come here!" She led me to her bed then she started whispering to me. "She lives in Chiba, in my old apartment. She changed her name to Akari Akatsuka. She changed her appearance with the help of me! She now has a black hair that reaches her waist. She has dark brown eyes now too. Good luck in finding her!"
"Thank you..." I thanked her then I went to the police and told him that no one knows about where she is now then I thought about what to tell her.
I sat on a chair in a corner in a cafe.
I kept thinking and thinking about what to tell her...
Minutes passed by...
Hours passed by...
And eventually, I thought about how to tell her about it and by the time I figured out what to tell her it's already lunch time! Wow, did I spend that much time thinking? Anyway I'm hungry now so instead of buying food in the cafe, I went back home which isn't actually that far.
"Gah, I'm hungry..." I told myself while my stomach makes gurgling noises. "Ugh, is it my fault that I forgot to bring money?!" I shouted.
Everyone's staring at me like 'what the fudge?' so I shut up and I ran home instead.
By the time I got there it was 1:28 PM and I'm starving! I ran to the fridge and opened it. Did you know what I saw there? Hmm... A glass of juice, and a jug of water, nice.
'Why fridge, why?' I thought, 'just when I really needed food, it disappears. '
I went to my neighbor then, "Um hi."
"Hi Len, how are you? Are you alright now?"
"Oh I'm fine but I'm starving..."
"Oh well have a seat inside. I have some leftovers of curry!" The elderly lady told me.
"Thank you!" I grinned at her.
I ate until I was full. I looked at the antique grandfather clock and it was 1:40 PM. I thanked her again and ran out of her house and rested. I woke up at 7:00 PM and I ran to Chiba xD.
I arrived at 7:32 PM and I knocked to her door. Bad luck, it's locked. Good thing her neighbor told me that she went shopping and that she might be on her way home but I can't wait. I can't believe that I even missed her. I ran to the street and saw her black hair that reaches her waist. Even if she's not facing me I know it's her. I ran to her and hugged her from behind.
"Akari!" I said. I hope she notices my voice.
"Len?" She said smiling and facing me.
"Look, I have something to tell you." I told her, face serious.
"Oh, let's talk in my house."
"Okay."
We went to the living room and sat while Rin went to the kitchen to prepare me some juice and biscuits. My eyes looked around at her- her friend's apartment.
"Not bad." I commented.
Rin then went back with the tray of biscuits and a glass of juice setting it on the table.
"So," She started, "what is it?"
"You see, I stayed with the Oshiro family because of some certain things and o-our dad..." I answered
"What about dad?"
"Well, he... he's a yakuza boss..."
"EH?!" She said in disbelief and shock.
"Not just that! He also killed Kouta Oshiro's father and brother. So the people left are his mother and Kouta himself."
"So? I have no sympathy for them." She says coldly.
"Don't you get it?!" I screamed at her and I was surprised at myself because I've never screamed at her before, "Dad left us for his yakuza group and he killed the father and brother of Kouta! So the Oshiros are gonna hunt down the Kagamines so you better watch out." I warned her.
"What do they look like?"
"Kouta is a small boy with a short black hair and fair skin while Mrs. Oshiro is also a fair skinned woman with a dark brown hair always put up in a bun and she has a soft, smooth voice."
"Okay, thanks."
"Sure."
"Umm Len?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I have a request?"
"Sure."
"Can you sleep here just for one night?" She requested.
"Of course!" I said hugging her in a friendly way.
"I'm sorry... For everything! I- I didn't mean to go crazy..."
"It's okay." I grinned at her and after the whole talk about it, we slept.
I woke up as soon as I heard an alarm, it's Rin's cellphone.
I was about to wake Rin up but I noticed that she already left so I just stopped the annoying alarm from ringing.
I went to the kitchen to find something to eat but I found breakfast ready on the table so I went straight to eating and I took a bath after.
"I guess today is a great day to explore this city I guess..." I told myself, "Gah, I miss Miku so much! Maybe if I did explore the city, it would help keep my mind off her."
I went and dressed up and left a note on the table saying that I'm gonna explore the city for a while.
Street
I was exploring the wonderful streets of Chiba, how weird, there are tons of masks everywhere and tons of dresses too. I wonder why... As I continued to walk, one flyer caught my attention:
"MASQUERADE BALL!
Enjoy your night here at the masquerade ball in Chiba! Note that food will be provided and that the entrance is free, you have to bring your own mask though.
When: February 14 at 8:00 PM"
Reads the flyer so I looked at a calendar and found out that it was February 14 now! No wonder there are tons of masks and clothes today, hmm how many people would go there? Should I go? Maybe I should, that would keep my mind off her.
I went to a shop with an elegant mask and bought it not minding how high the elegant mask costs.
"Next stop," I told myself, "the tailor's."
I went to the nearest tailoring shop and stared in awe at the fine clothing displayed while an exquisite, blue, ball gown stands out the most. I think tons of ladies want to buy it too since they all stared at it with awe like me.
I went inside the tailoring shop and asked how much the cloth costs.
"How much for that clothe displayed?"
"3, 500 yen." The old woman said proudly.
"Eh?! Why?"
"I used the finest fabric to make that clothing lad so stop complaining!" Scolded the old woman.
"Okay..." I said as I was handing the 3, 500 to the old tailor while she handed the clothe.
"Thank you for buying! Please do come again!" She said.
'Geez, like I'd buy from an old woman like you again!' I thought, yeah I know I sound disrespectful but it's not my fault!
I continued to explore the city but I'm making sure that I'm near Rin's house so that when the clock strikes 12:00 PM, I'm going back home to tell her about this.
.
12:00 PM Rin's house
"Heya Len!"
"Hi! Umm Rin?"
"Yeah?"
"Have you seen the flyers put up all over the city?" I asked her and she looked up at me then smiled.
"Of course I do! Our university is the one holding the ball!" Rin said proudly. Did I forget to tell you that she repeated because she was in prison before?
"Awesome! Are you going?"
"Nah, big test tomorrow so gotta study. Sorry Len!"
"It's alright. Good luck!"
"Thanks."
We then ate lunch until we're full and by the time I looked at my watch it was 12:15 PM.
"I guess I'd just rest for a while then." I decided.
.

7: 49 PM Rin's house, Len's bedroom
I dressed myself up. I'm so excited! I wonder if Miku's there... No, no wait! Stop thinking about Miku, Len!
But how would I go to the venue?
"Nee-san!"
"What is it?"
"Can I borrow you car?"
Rin grinned at me, "Of course Len but on one condition."
-Damn Rin- "What condition?
"Make sure that when you bring the car, it's not damaged 'kay?"
"Okay."
"Good."
She then handed the car keys to me and waved goodbye.
So I went to the ball fixing my self...
