CHAPTER 3: SCHOOL

The weekend was over and alas it was time for school again. My parents had come back home, so Len and Oliver stayed in my room most of the time. It was an early morning and I was walking to school dressed in my neat uniform. It consisted of a light blue skirt and a white long sleeve button up shirt with a black long sleeve blazer covering the shirt, and on the neck a blue ribbon with some long black socks and brown school shoes. When I was in a place where no one usually passed by, I stopped.

-Len, you can come out now.-

So he did, in a few seconds, Len and Oliver were in front of me, smiling.

-Len, will you be at school with me, all day?-

-No, I will leave you safe and sound at school with Oliver and leave.-

-Why?-

-There's a devil's meeting related with the war. Now that the've done the welcoming of devils. It is official I have a twin.-

-I see-

I said rather sadly, I had began to grow accostumed to having Len by my side always, nonetheless began walking again and I no longer felt him by my side, he had turned invisible.

I arrived at the school gates about 10 minutes later. It was somehow weird, I was sad because I knew Len woudn't be with me, but somehow happy because I could feel and act more normal around school and my friends. I looked around and when it was safe, I signaled him and Len came out.

-This is where we part, Rin-

-Yes, but promise me you'll pick me up at 3:00-

-I promise-

Len kissed my forehead and I closed my eyes.

-See you later-

I nodded. Then he left. I walked inside the school and went into my classroom all the while feeling Oliver by my side even though I couldn't see him. It was odd I could feel Oliver even when I couldn't see him, but as for Len it was different I could not feel him at all when he was invisible and I sometimes even wondered if he had left. With these thoughts inside my head, class had started without my noticing.

-...Kagamine? Rin Kagamine?-

I snapped out of my trance and almost screamed while standing up.

-Here!-

My classmates started laughing and giggling and I flushed.

-I see you're full of energy this morning. Kagamine-san-

I nodded and sat down. Trying to bury my face in my hands.

-Are you okay Rin-chan?-

I turned around, I knew that voice

-Of course, Teto, why wouldn't I be?-

-I don't know, it was just an instinct-

-Instinct?-

-Yes-

With that our little chat ended and we both looked towards the board.

A few classes later, it was break time. I walked with Teto at my side, towards the empty music classroom, which no one ever used. It was kind of our hideout, since no one ever went there. I sat on the piano's seat as so did Teto.

-Play a song.-

I smiled, Teto had a fond liking for hearing me play the piano.

-What song?-

-You know-

She giggled. And I started playing a melody, a soft and gentle one, which then gave in to a faster one. I ended the song smiling.

-Are you sure you don't want to be a musician?-

-It's just a hobby Teto, a way to pass away time.-

There was a piano at my house, a beautiful one. Most of the time I was playing it.

-But you're so good!-

She squealed.

-Anyways, how did your weekend go?-

I asked her, she had told me she was staying with her boyfriend in a cabin in the mountains.

-It was wonderful, I would have enjoyed it more if you were there with me, there was a beautiful lake.-

-I would have liked to go, but my parents were on a business trip and I had to take care of the house. And I wouldn't have liked to be a third wheel-

She pouted, it was cute, she kind of looked like a chipmunk. I poked her cheeks and we both broke out laughing.

-Promise you'll go next time, just you and me?-

-I'll have to see when with my parents, but I promise I'll go-

-YAY!-

She jumped up and down happilly.

-I swear you're such a child sometimes.-

She humphed.

-I just remembered!-

She screamed.

-What?-

-Mrs. Ruko asked me to help her with some papers!-

I laughed.

-Then go-

-You're right!-

She hurried away.

-SEE YOU AT TOMORROW RIN!-

I smiled, Teto was so she was good company, I felt lonely most of the time at my aternoon classes or at lunch. We only took morning classes together. And our lunch time were one hour apart since she was in one grade higher than mine's. I went into the hallway to check that Teto had really gone away and closed the door.

-Oliver, are you here?-

He appeared before me.

-Who's that girl? Her aura is.. different from others.-

-She's my best friend since we were little.-

I smiled remembering the days when we played with Barbie dolls.

-I see...Anyways what she said is right. You do play the piano wonderfully. That's one thing you have in common with Len.-

I chirped up.

-Len plays the piano?-

-Yes, he was taught when he was little, he doesn't play often now though.-

This was something new, astronomy and the piano, Len was quite interesting.

Maybe I could persuade him to play the piano for me to hear.

-By the way, do you know what happens at those meetings?-

I was refferering to the meeting where Len had went.

-No, we companions are forbidden to go to any of those meetings. If you ask him, I'm sure he'll tell you.-

-I guess you're right.-

At that moment the bell rang.

-I have to go back to classes.-

He nodded and opened Len's field before going in he waved and smiled.

-See you later, Rin.-

-See you later, Oliver.-

He went in and the portal closed. I got up and after going to my locker and gathering all the stuff I needed for my next three classes I headed to History class.

I went inside the classroom and sure enough the twins were there, next to my seat.

-Hi Rin-

Rui Kagene twin sister of Rei Kagene said.

-Hi Rui, hey Rei-

Rei nodded acknowledging me. The Kagene twins sure were strange. Both of them had black hair with golden yellow eyes. They looked like black cats you could say. While Rei kept his hair loose, reaching to his shoulders. Rui styled her hair like mine. She had a white ribbon on the back of her loose hair that like Rei's also reached to her shoulders. But today, as weird as it sounded Len had insisted on doing my hair,so I let him. He had styled my hair into two pigtails on the side and some diamond shaped pins holding my bangs.

-Who styled your hair? I like it-

said Rui making Rei notice.

-Thanks. It was my.. um. .my mom.-

-You look nice that, for once you two don't have the same hairstyle.-

said Rei and Rui and I pouted. The bell rang and the teacher came in a few minutes later and class started. After History class came English class and after that came Math class. Finally it was time for lunch, I was starving, I hadn't eaten breakfast. I headed with Rui beside me to the roof. We sat leaning against the wall and got our bentos out to begin eating.

-Itadakimasu~-

Rui said and began eating, I repeated and began eating too. Rui finished before me. Either she was a really fast eater or I was a really slow one. When I finished eating. Rui insisted we walk around the school. And so, that's how I ended up practically on the other side of the school, tired. I sat on one of the benches beneath the trees. It was part of the old school, so there weren't any people around except for Rei, Rui and me.

-Rin your hair really looks nice you should have him style it up like that more.-

-Rui you said it this morning, tha-

In that instant it hit me.

'Rui said -have him-. Impossible.'

-What's wrong Rin?-

She asked with a smirk on her face.

-Those pins really are cute, did Len give them to you?-

I stood up and stumbled backwards.

-H-how?-

Rei stood up and smiled.

-You know how.-

-B-but that means you two are...-

-Not quite, we're not devils, we're demons a lower but still powerful rank.-

I couldn't believe it. Rui and Rei had been my classmates for nearly two years. If the twins I called and believed were my friends were actually, in reality, demons then who could I trust?

-The thing is we're on a mission sent by one of the devils, Luka-

I remembered her it was the woman with long pink hair. The devil of Envy.

-What mission?-

I asked with a shaky voice.

-A mission to kill you.-

I was on the verge of tears. Rui and Rei did some kind of transformation. They now had cat ears and tails, both with a giant scythe in hand.

-Oliver-

I said desperately with fear why hadn't he come out yet? I closed my eyes, hoping this was just another bad dream. But when I opened them everything was the same. I fell on my knees. Rei attacked from the left and Rui from the right, both swinging their gigantic scythes down. My eyes closed on instinct, my body waiting for the pain to come. But instead I heard a crash.

-Rin-

I knew that voice. It was Len's. I opened my eyes and thankfully Len was there with his back to me, protecting me.

-It's ok now-

He was looking at me. I saw a glint of a blade.

-Len!-

It was too late. Rei had struck Len, making a giant wound on his chest.

-You finally came,you haven't been feeding have you? Luka said so, you know that for us creatures of the other world feeding is especially important for our human bodies.-

said Rei. Rui coming up behind him. Len was on the floor, he coughed up blood and immediately wiped the corner of his mouth. He sat up.

-Don't be so full of yourself, I was just taken by surprise and while it is true that I haven't been feeding, I can still win against you two.-

-I don't think so Len-kun, we aren't the same as before, not the same little pair of twins you fooled and then left alone, to die.-

said Rui with a smile on her face.

-You're wrong. I only did that to protect you two.-

Len looked pained.

-Don't give me that bullshit!-

Rui swiped down her scythe and I instinctively covered Len. I heard my own skin being sliced open and gasped in pain.

-Rin!-

Len grabbed me by the waist and I felt myself being in the air. Len took me to the roof and laid me sideways on the floor, with my head on his lap. He was nervous, I noticed.

-Len, I-

I coughed out blood.

-Don't say anything, it's ok.-

He did an algorithm in his hand and pressed it to the wound on my back.

-This should help a little-

The pain now lowered a little.

-You can't hide Len-

It was Rei on the left side of the roof.

-Because we will always find you-

Rui, on the right side of the roof. They both came at us. Len hugged me. He was struck again. He flew with me in his hands towards one of the gardens.

-Len, are you okay?-

I was worried, very worried. He nodded, he couldn't even talk. I began to cry, it was my fault, if onlI wasn't his twin. If only I didn't love him.

-Don't cry-

-How can I not? This is my fault.-

-It isn't-

-Then why aren't you fighting back? It's beacuse you're two busy protecting weak, defenseless me! Just forget about me and fight back!-

-I can't forget about you.-

I kept crying.

-And the reason to why I'm not fighting back is what Rei said, I haven't been feeding for a long time.-

-'Was this a way I could finally help?'-

-What do you need? I'll help you-

-Rin, no-

-I'm not asking you, if this is a way I can help you, then I will. You need to fight back or otherwise you'll be killed! I don't want that. So you will do whatever you need to do,even if it kills me-

He really didn't want to feed. Was it really that bad?

-I-i can't put you in a trance and drink your blood, I-i just can't-

-Why not?!-

-Because I love you!-

-If you love me, then do this for me.-

I was shocked by the sudden confession.

-Rin..-

-Hello~-

Rui and Rei said in unison, swinging their scythes down once again and striking me.

I bit my lip so as not to scream. Len flew up and took me to the top of the school's bell.

-Do..it. For me.-

I forced out those words, barely unable to speak.

-O-okay.-

His eyes turned purple.

-I'm sorry-

He kissed me and my eyes closed, as much as I tried I couldn't open them. Len pulled back, and I felt his warm breath on my neck. I felt him lick the space between my neck and throath and I gasped, then I felt fangs sinking into the side of my throath. My eyes opened and I screamed but it was inaudible, the bell resounded, striking the hour. It was more painful than the two wounds Rui and Rei gave me, more painful than anything I ever felt. I felt a burning sensation running through my body. Len removed his fangs from my throat and whispered in my ear.

-Go to sleep-

His voice was like a melody, mesmerizing, enchanting. Like in a trance... Then I truly understood why Len didn't want to do this, why he didn't want to hurt me.

I closed my eyes and before I fell asleep with the rays of the sunlight caressing my skin. I felt him sink his fangs once more into my neck.

And I fell into an endless pit of darkness.

HI! YEAH OK.

So yeah here is the third chappie eat it up you little birdies. I don't know know why, but I almost cried writing this chapter...
