Chapter One: Me, me and… detention?
(Rin's POV)
I walked into the classroom casually and zipped up my orange jacket. The windows at the side were dotted with little beads of water and were slightly misted. Outside, raindrops were rapidly pelting the soggy ground and the sound of pitter-patter echoed softly throughout the school hallways. Filling the classroom were numerous students who chattered animatedly with no intention of stopping. And here I was, sitting at my desk, quickly penning down my diverse thoughts…
Okay, let's cut that. I'm Rin Kagamine, the so-called loner of class E, Sakura High School.
For general knowledge, this school is very specific about education. They divided the students into classes according to what they were good at. A for the budding Einsteins, B for home economics, C for the music inclined, D for computer geeks, E for showbiz people like performers, and F for artists.
I still think they placed me in the wrong class… Damn school, now I have to go through classes training clowns and idiotic magicians!
"Okay, class, get your textbooks out," my teacher said in a monotone voice as she stormed in, slamming her materials onto the table. What an old grouch, that Luka Megurine. I bet the cafeteria just ran out of tuna sandwiches…
The other students let out a great sigh in unison and reluctantly pulled out their three hundred paged books to avoid her wrath and fury. She's a perfectionist and loves giving detention to those who can't keep up with her pace. She even gave the poor and innocent Kaiko Shion detention for one overdue assignment! Geez, teachers nowadays are so hardcore…
I'm the one who usually gets it from her. I don't know what her problem is, but she gives me the detention slip for no reason at all. Come on, Lulu! What's wrong with wanting to write a short little paragraph of my story?
About that… I'm a wannabe writer. I guess it comes sort of naturally to me. I get this really itchy feeling in my hands and I just have to. I even keep a little notebook in my pockets to jot down new ideas, which are really rare and hard to come by. Stories need to have a plot, and a good structure. This is why I work on only a few—
"Rin, what is the answer to this question?" Luka asked, pointing to an algebra formula on the blackboard. Perfect, everyone's staring at me now. I kept my mouth closed in a tight line, waiting for her to give up. Luka just stared back with an amused and sadistic look on her face. Sure, I love you too, Lulu.
"The answer is negative five," I heard a voice say. Everyone turned to the girl sitting two seats away from me. Rui Kagene had her hand raised high up. Wow, thank you!
"That's… Correct." Luka turned back to the board, obviously annoyed by the interruption and chose another unfortunate soul to answer a harder question. I took a quick glance and mouthed a 'thanks' at Rui and she smiled back, nodding. Ah, sweet, sweet Rui…
She's one of my closest friends whom I met in middle school. She sort of saved me from my tormentors and agreed to work with me to reach our goals. She's really good at drawing manga, too. She even had a brain and innocence to boot. Like me, she was also placed in the wrong class. Class F was a really popular choice, so she didn't even get a chance. So far, things have been good for her, coz' she can sing well enough.
But even after all these years that I've known her, I still haven't figured how she saved me that day. I did ask, but…
"I just… saved you, Rin."
I still don't get what she means… I don't understand at all. Well, I did see some blood on her uniform, but that alone doesn't prove anything… And for some weird reason, Rui is also unpopular with the rest of the class, like me. It seems as though people avoid her, while I'm thrown aside and ignored. Meh, I don't know. Maybe I'm just paranoid.
I turned my attention to my notebook, filled with messy handwriting. Well, my penmanship wasn't exactly the best… I smiled as I read the last few lines I wrote.
His heart wrenched in agony and desperation as he tried to find the answers, and the one whom he had lost so many years ago…
The one taken from him just to fulfill her destiny and protect the world from the beast…
He couldn't comprehend why they let the dragon live instead of slaying it. Perhaps it represented something holy or something sacred?
Still, that wouldn't stop him from searching the lost fragment from his heart. It didn't matter whether the world would be destroyed by the dragon or not, because he would find her, even if it meant going up against the Queen and the guardian of the holy shrine...
He would find his long lost twin sister.
It's a tiny part of my ongoing story, titled Synchronicity. I came up with it when I was little, reading fiction and fantasy stories. Hah, I think I have a dragon fetish—
"Rin Kagamine!" I almost jolted. The entire class was silent except the guy who was snoring away at his desk. Luka was standing behind me, with blazing blue eyes that screamed bloody murder with her arms crossed. Her long fingers were wrapped around a yellow piece of paper I was all too familiar with…
"Lul—" I caught myself and stopped. Phew! Thank oranges!
"But Miss Megurine, I was only—"
"See me after school in detention."
…Crap.
Ah, yes... we all love our teachers, don't we? (sarcasm)
You'll meet the famous Len Kagamine in the next chappie!
