Chapter 11: Perceiving Integrity

Clouds bunched together in the dark sky. Rain poured down on the streets below creating a waterfall among the roadside. Not a soul would dare to venture into the storm. People were tucked safely in their beds, their dreams undisturbed by the crime that had been committed that night.

All except a boy who sat huddled in a corner, his yellow hoodie barely shielding him from the downpour. Deep pools of cerulean stared lifelessly into the night. His blond hair clung to his forehead as he shook. However, the shivering wasn't brought by the cold.

They say that when you die your life flashes before your eyes. What about when someone else dies? Scenes of earlier flickered in his head, recapping the screams, the running, chasing, shooting, the laughter, those hurtful words, and all the desperation. The way they looked after the deed was done, and all that red…

With a mix between a gasp and a whimper, Len clenched his fingers over the hood, pulling it down as if covering his eyes would stop the images from flowing.

Isn't there something you're forgetting?

Len's eyes grew larger, losing the lifeless sheen. The voice he hadn't heard in a while was speaking. He didn't reply right away, still preoccupied.

'They're dead' He thought. 'I killed them.' He pulled his legs closer to him, winding his arms around his knees and stared wildly into nothing. 'I'm a MURDERER!'

The voice seemed to be listening to Len's thoughts and made a "hmm" sound.

Perhaps…if you see it that way. But, why is it that you did it?

Len shook his head still trying to get rid of the pictures assaulting his mind.

What was it that made you react as such? Are you forgetting anything?

Len finally started thinking about the voice's words. Forgetting? He glanced around as if the streets held the answer. A flash of silver caught his eye and he gasped.

"THE SCISSORS!"

The said item was still in his left hand. He nearly cried out as he pushed his back against the wall trying to escape them. He couldn't will himself to let them go. Len glanced about trying to find a place to put them, maybe if they were out of sight he'd be ok. He eventually settled with putting them into his pocket, although it took a moment for his fingers to release the cold metal. Once they were out of sight Len began to calm down.

There there, now is there anything else you're forgetting,…anyONE?

"Anyone…anyone…anyo- RIN!"

A wave of shock jolted through him and he sat up straight. Was she ok? Did that girl (1) Get Rin to the hospital fast enough? Was she safe? Len got to his feet, his sneakers splashing in the puddles. He began running in one direction, then turned around and ran in the other.

Water splattered his socks and shoes, as he skid to a stop again. He had NO idea where the hospital was. Len began looking around frantically. His eyes grew wide and panicked.

Left

Right

Left

Calm down and I'll guide you

Len nodded to the voice, his body still shaken.

Good now, go left

Len swallowed and hurried off where he was directed. The events from before moved to the back of his mind, but he couldn't get rid of the odd feeling he had.

He was relieved.


Chapter 11

Rin awoke to the smell of antiseptic and cleaning supplies. She closed her eyes almost as soon as she had opened them, alarmed at the bright light, making the white washed walls look blinding. After a moment she slowly opened them again, and allowed them to adjust the light in the room.

'Wha? Why am I here?'

She thought rubbing her face with a hand and observing the hospital room. The walls were bare, making the room seem larger. On one side of the bed lay a table, and on the other a large window that looked out onto the bust Tokyo streets. She shifted and a wave of dizziness passed over her, causing her to fall back onto the sheets.

She yelped and rolled over when she felt something under her. Turning her head she spotted what she had almost squished.

'Why is he a bear? Isn't it morning?'

Rin looked back at the window trying to contemplate it, when her thoughts were cut shot by a sudden surge of pain in her side. She winced and noticed the amount of bandages lining her body. The memory returned.

It became too much for her to handle and she fainted. Len lifted his head, after never having fallen asleep and looked at Rin frowning.


The door slam echoed throughout the empty house. She marched into the hallway with loud clicks from her shoes.

"MOTHER!"

Her shrill voice rang out as she tossed her long hair over her shoulder scrutinizing her surroundings.

"MOTHER!"

Lily repeated, throwing her bag onto the couch. She placed her hands on her hips and screeched again. She noticed the kitchen light on and wandered over to the room finding it vacant.

"Ugh! These people make me have to do everything!"

With a huff she flicked the light off and started up the stairs muttering to herself. She would give her mother a piece of her mind. Lily stopped short, noticing an open drawer. Curiosity took over as she stepped back down and went to the drawer.

Inside was only a black case embedded with her father's name. Her curiosity peaked imagining the treats her father might have hidden, perhaps a necklace or rubies. She flipped the latches and opened the box. Her eyes sparkled with mischief,

Only to wind up disappointed that it was completely empty. Lily pouted, glaring at the indent in the soft velvet indicating that something was missing, and had been recently removed.

"Father has a gun? Wish I knew that earlier"

She mimed aiming and shooting a gun at the door behind the stairwell.

"Our problems would be over."

She smirked and ran a hand through her hair before closing the box and drawer. She flipped around wondering, where was the gun then? Moreover, where was her father? Maybe, she had mistaken them being home.

Scoffing at the thought that she could make a mistake, she whipped around and over to the front door to check if the car was there. Sure enough, it sat in its usual spot, exactly in the middle of the driveway, to prevent unwanted visitors from getting to close and scratching the paint.

Lily made to close the door before she noticed her mothers' favorite shoes were not there. If she knew anything best, it was her mother never let go of anything in-style. Therefore, her mother had to be wearing the shoes. But, if she wasn't in the house nor in the car, where could she be?

Lily stepped outside to peer in the car window, and nearly slipped on something. She kneeled down and picked it up. A bullet lay in her palm. It suddenly clicked in her head.

"Fathers' gun."

She stepped off the driveway, searching the ground for another sign. But, Lily had no idea which direction her father could have shot in. Nor could she determine when. She continued to aimlessly walk, when a sick smile came over her face.

"Maybe…they finally decided to get rid of that wretched brat!" She sighed "finally!"

She wished, however, that she was able to play a part in it. As she was about to turn back to the house she notice imprinted footprints in the dry muddy area. There were two sets: large ones like her father's rough boots, and smaller like the heels of her mother's designer shoes.

But where were Rin's? Lifting her eyes, Lily looked at the path leading into the woods. Without changing her line of vision she started to walk towards them. Suddenly her foot snagged on something and she toppled over.

She yelped and whined at the disgrace of her clothing, scolding the ground for having tripped her. She looked around for the menace. An elegant shoe, much like her mother's was buried in the mud. The toe of it protruded from the ground.

A gleam came to Lily's eyes as she knelt to pull it out, no longer concerned about her own outfit. It was very stuck and Lily had to exert more strength than she was used to, continuing to pull.

"UGH! Come on!"

She cried in frustration and with a groan the ground released it. Lily stumbled back a few steps by the force, but managed to keep her balance. She looked greedily at her prize, wondering how such a beauty could get to such a disgusting place.

And then, then look in her eyes faded as she saw something in her peripheral vision. The shoe slipped from her grasp and a scream ripped through her throat. She stared at the two lifeless bodies lying halfway hidden by the muck. Their eyes were full of horror on their pale dead faces. The faces of Miriam and Leon Kagamine. One of whom was missing her shoe.

Lily screamed again.


The blinds slid open alighting the room with an orange glow.

"There that's much better" the nurse said leaving the window to address the girl propped up against the pillows.

Rin smiled "Thank you" she replied sweetly.

"Anytime! Now, let's see those bandages!"

Rin nodded and pulled the covers off her. The nurse began inspecting the wrapping around her waist and arms. Rin glanced over at the bear by her side and smiled at him reassuringly. Len looked at her worriedly and Rin lifted a hand to his cheek, softly petting the fur there.

"It's okay" she mouthed.

Len froze at her touch, captivated by tat smile she showed only to him. But all too soon it left him when the nurse announced she was "good as new." Rin turned her attention back towards the nurse and Len frowned again.

"Where is she? I want to see Rin-Chan!"

"Gumi calm down"

"NO! My friend is hurt, let me see her!"

The nurse and Rin looked up at the door, hearing the voices behind it becoming louder. The nurse stood up fully and smoothed down her uniform before smiling at Rin.

"Well seems you have a visitor Rin-san"

"Visitor?" Rin titled her head, her eyes full of confusion. She sent a short glance at Len, who wasn't paying much attention. Just then the door was flung open to a huffing and puffing greenette. She was half turned speaking to the taller, older nurse behind her.

"Look, I'm her best friend I deser-"

"Gumi-Chan!"

Gumi's green eyes flashed over to the sweet voice, and all the anger faded from her face. RIN-CHAN!"

She sprang from the door and dived at the blonde too fast for the two nurses to catch her. Gumi threw her arms around Rin and latched on to her in a bone-crushing hug. Rin winced slightly but smiled at the fact that Gumi was there.

"Eh heh…What are you doing here?"

Gumi let go appalled. "What? Rin-Chan you're hurt you can't not expect me to come the second I find out you're my best friend!"

Rin flushed embarrassed and hugged Gumi back before the nurses pulled them apart. "We understand you're excitement Miss but Rin-San is recovering."

Gumi glanced down at Rin's bandages and automatically felt stupid. "I'm so sorry! Did I mess anything up? Did I hurt you?"

"N-No it's alright, really" Rin smiled softly to explain to her friend, she had done no harm.

"Oh Rin-Chan, I was so worried" Gumi frowned looking over Rin's bed. The nurses backed out of the room after being sure Gumi wasn't going to attack Rin again. Gumi sat in the chair beside the bed as the two girls began to talk.

Len, sat on the floor feeling dejected. He had fallen off the bed when Gumi had jumped on. Normally he'd find a way back up, but lately nothing made sense. Emotions swelled up inside him and he was conflicted.

He drew his paws up to his face pulling at the fur like he had his hair. Why wouldn't these visions just leave him alone? Why couldn't he just be normal? He just wanted to be free of them. He wanted to be the one up there talking with Rin and seeing her smiles. Why couldn't he be like Rin?

She had been through the worst all her life, and yet she kept on smiling. Len sighed. He wanted to be like that, pure and innocent. But, he was already exposed to the evils of the world. Then what was the right thing to do? Len continued to contemplate it all through the night. The voice's words returned to him.

Why did you do it?

He knew the answer. It was to protect Rin. Then it wasn't wrong. They were wrong, they deserved to pay. Right? Yes, if it was to preserve Rin's innocence, anything was ok. If anything was to threaten her he'd remove it.

The room was darker now. Len was amazed he had thought all throughout the day. He smiled finally coming up with a solution. But he'd never tell Rin

No never tell Rin.


Rin was released from the hospital the next day. She had recovered enough to walk properly and without any pain. She sat at the side of the bed with Len, who was human again, waiting for Gumi and Sonika to arrive.

"I wonder how Oliver is doing" She said leaning back a bit. Len blinked listening to her talk "I mean, he hasn't been eating much. What if he didn't eat at all since I've been her? I hope he's okay." She frowned and Len flinched.

"I'm sure he's fine, don't blame yourself Rin" Len replied wanting her to smile again.

"But it is my fault! What if he's sick? Or what if he died!?" Len froze at the word "died" but made no comment. Rin continued, "…And Lily, She should be back from her friends now, I wonder how she is without me there to help. I hope I didn't trouble her. Oh! What about Father and Mother!?"

A lump formed in Len's throat. "Who?" he croaked out.

"Father and Mother" Rin smiled. "I do hope I didn't do anything to anger them, or cause them any trouble". Her expression was so genuine Len didn't know how to react. She was kind through and through even though people had never treated her right. For a second Len felt guilt for what he had done, but it was only a mere second.

'It was the right thing," he reminded himself.

The nurse appeared in the doorway. "Rin-San you're ride is here" She called. Rin clasped her hands together.

"Thank you!" she hopped off the bed and Len stood up with her. Unexpectedly Rin's footing slipped and she was jolted forward. The nurse noticed and gasped rushing to her aid, but hands shot out of nowhere catching the blonde in a tight grasp. Len had managed to catch her first. The nurse backed away, as Len stared at her hugging Rin protectively.

"W-Well…follow me"

The nurse gulped and hurried from the room with Rin staring confused at the sudden change in the nurse. Her confusion receded when Len lifted her back to her feet and guided her out of the room and into the main lobby where Gumi and Sonika stood.

The nurse quickly slid behind a desk as the four left the hospital. She released a breath, remembering the boy's glare as she had tried only to do her job.

His eyes were so cold and un-human-like.


Sonika led the group out to her car. Gumi flung open the backseat door chattering with Rin. Len followed close behind, but not too close, his eyes on his blonde haired owner. Sonika moved to the driver's side and opened her door as Gumi ushered Rin into the vehicle. Just as Sonika was about to start up the engine Rin cried out

"WAIT!"

The two green-haired girls looked over at her with wide eyes. Rin simply pointed out the window at the boy standing on the sidewalk, who was staring at the ground. Gumi peered out the window not seeing what Rin was.

"What is it Rin-Chan?"

"Len" She pointed again.

Gumi looked around the seat. "Did you leave your bear inside?" She asked knowledgeable about who Len "was". Rin shook her head and undid her buckle opening the door on the opposite side. Gumi tried to grab her hand before she sprang out the opened door and ran back to the sidewalk.

Rin stumbled, leaning against the trunk before continuing back towards the hospital. Gumi opened her own door calling to Rin before dashing out.

"Rin-Chan! You're still recovering!"

"What is going on?" Sonika wondered, leaning back against her seat watching as the two girls disappeared behind a corner.

Rin ran up to Len, who looked up from the ground. "Come on Len!" she tugged on his arm and he peered at her confused.

"Come where?" he asked.

Gumi ran up and stopped as she looked at the two blondes. "Rin-Chan?" Rin turned her head towards Gumi. "Who is this?" She stepped closer getting a better look at Len. Rin and Len both stayed silent as Gumi looked Len over. "He looks like you" she said her eyes widening. "Is he your brother?"

Rin glanced at Len. "Brother? Wha…? It's Len."

Gumi looked confused for a moment before laughing. "You named your bear after your brother?" Len flinched. "That's cute!"

"Wait-wha" the blondes said together.

"Nice to meet you Len-Kun~ I'm Gumi, Rin-Chan's best friend" She held out a hand which Len just stared at. Gumi laughed again. "Shy are we?" then she looked back at Rin. "You never told me you had a brother!"

"Wha he's no-"

"And one so cute too!" Gumi began to walk back towards the car. Rin blushed, glancing at Len whose expression could only be described as hilarious. "You must be twins!" Gumi said coming up with an explanation herself. Rin looked at Len apologetically. Len looked away, his eyebrow twitching. Something about being called her "twin" (2) highly irritated him but he couldn't place it.

He followed Gumi and Rin into the car, trying to figure out what the feeling was the whole ride back to their house.


"I'm happy we could save the flowers"

Rin washed the last of the dirt off her hands in the kitchen sink. Len stood by her twitching as he gripped the side of the counter. Rin hummed a song to herself as she turned the faucet into the off position and cleaned up the area.

"Len?" Rin titled her head, noticing Len's stillness. "Len?" she asked again. Len continued to stare out the window his grip on the counter getting tighter. Rin followed his eyes but couldn't see what he was seeing. Len began trembling and Rin grew worried. Following her instinct she stepped in front of him and peered into his face hers inches from his.

"LEN!"

She cried and pushed her hands against his chest. All at once Len snapped out of whatever he had been in and stumbled backwards. He slipped falling onto his back and Rin squeaked in surprise, having not meant to push him so hard.

"Ohmygosh! I'm sorry!" Len rubbed his back, surprised to find himself on the ground so suddenly. Rin knelt in front of him. "Are you ok?"

Len nodded. "Y-Yes?" Len answered confused. Rin held out a hand to help him up. Len took it and stood up. Rin continued to look at him wondering why he was acting so strange.

"Wha-"she started but suddenly the doorbell rang.

Both turned to the sound confused. No one ever rang the doorbell, nor should anyone. Rin jumped and looked at Len. "Hide!" she whispered and began pushing him. Len tried to resist but the doorbell rang again. He succumbed to being pushed back into a tiny hall closet.

"Shh" Rin held a finger to her lips as she ran to answer the door. Len watched the peculiar scene from a crack in the door.

Two men, in uniform stood there. They straightened up when they saw the door had finally been answered. Rin blinked, speechless by the arrival of the officers.

"Kagamine Rin?" one asked. Rin nodded, and clenched a piece of her skirt. "Please come with us"

"Huh?" Rin's bow stood straight up as if alarmed by the request.

"You are wanted for questioning in regards of the crime that was committed near here last night." Rin's eyes widened in more confusion but she didn't speak as the other officer took out a something shiny.

Len squinted trying to see what was going on. The second officer stepped forward and grabbed Rin's wrists forcefully turning her around. Len saw Rin's wide eyes as the officers pulled her out the door. "Wait what's going on? Where are we going?" Rin asked.

"We're taking you to the station for questioning. Rin Kagamine, You are under arrest for the murder of Leon and Miriam Kagamine."

Rin's eyes widened more as she was pulled out of Len's sight. Len stood rooted to the spot as he heard car doors slam and a screech of a car speeding off. He leapt from the closet and ran to the door looking out it just in time to see the direction the police car had gone.

Without a second to lose Len ran out of the house and down the street following the car that held the only person he cared about.


A light flickered over the table in the dark room. Rin sat at one side twisting her hands together under the table. The two officers from earlier stood across from her. She waited for them to speak, terrified and confused.

"So, why did you do it?" an officer asked.

Rin looked up blinking, but didn't say anything. Instead her eyes wandered about the strange room, used for interrogations. Suddenly the other officer slammed his palms on the table making Rin emit a squeak of surprise.

"SPEAK!"

Rin yelped. "I don't know what you're talking about!"

The officer growled, "Don't act like you don't know! You know exactly what I'm talking about!"

Rin flinched at the man's tone of voice but stared at him in confusion. The officer swung himself around the table and marched towards Rin, slapping a manila folder on the table In front of her.

Rin jumped and looked at the folder before glancing back up the menacing face of the officer. Realizing she wasn't going to open it, the officer peeled back the cover of the folder revealing a file covered in words. Rin tried to read them but the officer fished through the file too fast for her to contemplate anything that was written there.

Then he paused on a group of pictures. Rin's eye trailed back on the folder and its contents. She gasped and covered her mouth.

"Miriam and Leon Kagamine were found dead on the morning of January 2nd. Both looked to have been dead for hours. Time of Death was confirmed after midnight of December 31st. Though the storm had washed away most of the evidence it was found that the two victims were stabbed to death." The officer across the room stated in a dry monotone voice.

"The man known as the most successful man in Tokyo, Leon Al Kagamine was found with his throat slashed and nearly drained of blood. His wife, the model citizen and Top Woman of the Year for 15 years straight, Miriam Kagamine was found lying next to him with several stab wounds in her chest. The weapon was not found at the scene, but Police believe it to be some sort of knife."

The man stopped as a choked sob escaped Rin's throat muffled by her hands. The two officers glanced at the girl wondering if she was about to confess. Rin shook with sobs as she stared at the picture of her "perfect" parents mangled bodies.

Even though her mother ignored her, even though her father beat and bruised her. Even though she was always mistreated, and threatened, somehow she still loved them. Rin's tiny body trembled as the tears poured down her cheeks.

'Who would do such a thing?'

She wondered, forgetting that she was being accused. She cared only for the ones who she never understood, and never understood her. Both officers melted at the sight of the broken girl. Her tears seemed so genuine and pure. Could such a girl really be a murderer?


Len entered the station with his hood up and blended into the crowd of busy officers and people. His eyes scanned the crowd looking for Rin or the officers who had taken her. Then a flash of yellow caught his eye. He turned and his eyes narrowed.

Lily stood by an officer her face buried in her hands. "I just…never expected such a thing to happen…we tried so hard but she…" she hiccupped. "She was just so difficult… we really thought we had done the right thing…but now…" She burst into tears burying her face in her hands more. Len watched, having never seen Lily cry before.

"It's alright" The officer beside her said, giving her a comforting pat on the back.

"Officer?" Lily said sniffling. "Is she going to be punished?"

"Right now they're questioning her, you can't jump to conclusions"

"But I know it was her!" Lily nearly growled

The officer looked at her and Lily quickly buried her face again. "Who would do such a thing?" She cried.

"Don't worry, we'll catch them and have them punished. Just let the Tokyo Police do their job" As the officer turned away to speak to another Len saw Lily smirk behind her hands. Her face was dry. Len's fists clenched as realization dawned on him.

Lily had framed Rin.


"Are you quite done?" The officer asked as Rin rubbed at her face. She nodded. Her eyes and cheeks were red from crying for so long. Both officers looked at her sympathetically. The one who had shouted earlier was leafing through her parents file.

"Alright" he said closing the folder. "We have a witness who said that it was you who committed these crimes. Do you have an alibi something to show you're innocent?" His voice was a lot kinder.

"I…" Rin spoke slowly fearful of crying again.

"Yes?" the officer asked.

"That night. I" Rin stared at her lap not wanting to reveal her father's attacking her. She didn't want people to know. The officers patiently waited as Rin finished. "Was in the hospital"

"The hospital?" The officer asked, motioning to the other officer who flipped out a phone. "Which one."

"I'm not sure…But I just left today"

The officers motioned to each other again and the one with the phone began pressing buttons. "Why were you there? Visiting someone? Or are you hurt?"

"I was…" Rin trailed off not wanting to reveal how.

"Was? How did you get hurt?"

"I….fell through a glass table" Rin stated, not fully lying.

"A glass table? Where?"

"My house…I tripped and fell through it…"

"Hmm… the officer jotted down some notes"

"It's confirmed Kagamine Rin was brought into the hospital late the night of December 31st and stayed there through today. The nurse said she was brought in unconscious by a green haired woman." The officer called to the other hanging up the phone.

"Do you know this green haired woman?" The other officer asked Rin.

"Uhm.. Yes that's Sonika-San, Gumi-Chan's big sister."

"And who are they to you?"

"My neighbors and friends"

The officer wrote down more. "Well were going to need to talk to this Sonika-San to confirm this, but otherwise you're free to go."

Rin blinked staring up at the two officers. "Wha?"

"We have nothing else to ask, it appears you are innocent." The officers helped Rin up from the chair. "We suggest you find a good, safe place to stay. The murderer could come back" they guided her to the door. Rin spun around confused but walked out the door.

"Oh and Rin-San"

"Y-yes?"

"I'm sorry about your parents"

The door to the interrogation room shut and Rin was guided down the hall by two other officers. They smiled at her. As she reached the front room of the building she saw Lily speaking to another officer.

She flinched slightly as Lily looked up to see her. Lily started towards her and Rin shut her eyes, only to blink as Lily wrapped her arms around her in a tight hug, something she had never done before. Rin stood dumbfounded before Lily pulled away.

"Sweet sister, let's go home. I'm gonna take good care of you now"

Rin's eyes widened at Lily's words almost disbelieving, but then she smiled. The officers watched as the two girls walked out of the room together and down to the car waiting to take them back home.

Len slipped off the wall watching secretly. He was suspicious at Lily's sudden change of attitude towards her sister. He walked out of the door, undetected again by the officers busy with the case. Something wasn't right about the situation.

His hand twitched towards his pocket but he clenched his fists as he followed the path back towards the Kagamine's home.


Lily and Rin waved to the officers who drove away in their car. Lily guided Rin back into the house.

"You must be hungry, want me to make you something to eat?" Lily asked smiling at her sister.

Rin shook her head her eyes still wide in surprise. Lily smiled again "Well tell me if you need anything"

"Y-yes.."

"It's Onee-Chan, don't be afraid to call me that"

"Yes Onee-Chan…" Rin replied looking at the floor.

"I'm gonna go check on Oliver, you can go rest okay?" Lily said running a hand through her hair as she started up the stairs. Rin shook her head.

"I'll just clean up some"

"Whatever you please" Lily laughed lightly.

Rin watched Lily until she was out of sight then turned smiling with a hand over her heart. Though it was odd for her sister to react in such a way suddenly, Rin couldn't deny that she felt happy with how she was treating her.

"Onee-Chan" She giggled as she set to work cleaning.


A figure spoke into the receiver calmly, looking through a folder of papers.

"Yes it is indeed an odd case."

The figure listened to the voice on the other line, nodding as thin gloved fingers flipped through the file. "No fingerprints anywhere and most evidence washed away by the rain" The other voice was speaking again and the figure continued to nod.

"Yes, I will be there immediately. Thank you for the call. Yes, Goodbye" The phone clicked off and the figure placed it down on the desk and leaned forward. Pale bangs framed its face, as it looked over the folder again.

"It's useless. You're being watched. No matter where you run,
we will not let off those who scheme to overthrow the government.
We already have a good grasp of the patterns of all your movements!"(3)

The figured turned a few pages of the file, leaning forward again.

"Hmm… interesting"


Rin finished straightening the pillows just as she heard the door open. She stopped and slowly walked out of the room. Len entered the house his hood up again. Rin gasped and ran over to him.

"Len! We're you outside?" Len nodded as Rin pulled him away from the door and latched the lock. "You have to be careful!" She scolded him, fear in her eyes.

Len looked at her feeling bad. "Sorry…" He whispered looking away.

"It's okay" She said softly and hugged him. "I was just worried. Len, something bad happened and….and" for a second it looked as if she would cry. "And it's not safe to be outside alone." She let go and guided him to her room.

"Sorry…" Len said again rubbing the back of his head following her.

"It's not safe to be alone here either" she stated. Len blinked wondering what was so un-safe suddenly. Other than her parents, he didn't really see anything as unsafe for them. Rin bit her lip looking around the room thinking.

"Len…"

She turned around smiling. "How would you like to go to school with me?" Len's eyes widened. He didn't have to stay there? He could go with Rin again? Len couldn't stop the smile from appearing on his own face.

Rin giggled. "Then it's settled, starting tomorrow you will be a student at Yamaha Junior-High!" She gathered things for a shower and left the room making sure the door was tightly shut, securing Len.

Rin leaned against the wall hoping her decision was right. If it was to protect him she would do anything she could. Len was important to her. Losing her parents made her realize she never wanted to lose anyone again.

Len stood by the wall inside the room wondering what awaited them at school. We're the kids as bad as they were before? If so he knew he'd protect Rin.

She was the most precious person to him and he would protect her at any cost. But he'd never tell her what he had done.

No never tell Rin.

ChibiLove-San: Yes! You got Len just right. Raining on his face. He's a boy he wouldn't admit he was crying. Felt bad they died? Well truthfully I don't think anyone deserves to be killed, but this is also fiction. Len was right about her parents, I wonder if anyone knew that Miriam knew and allowed everything. Beautiful chapter? :O even though it included Murder (unintentional) they are lyrics from Adolescence.

Soon? Her parent's death? Really I thought I was delaying it…hmmm. Rin abuse end? Well I can say it won't be the same. Another killing scene... hmm hint I go by the lyrics. Thankyuu I tried my best on the scene.

Nah there are like 1000 songs for each Vocaloid (no lie) so you're not a failed fan for not knowing some. Actually I find new songs from reading fanfics all the time.

Here is the update!

NakaoYamashita-San: Yes you did! They were murdered. Although Len didn't really intend to kill them. LEN SHALL NOT DIE! I think…. Here is the update!

Ownitlikeaboss-San: Conscience, (Con-Science) I have problems with that word YAY SPELL CHECK! Yes it will haunt his conscience since he really didn't intend it. Here is the update

XxxPuppylove12xxX-San: Sooooo many X's. :O You're review makes me really happy. It's exactly how I intended people to react to my story. Thankyuu Thankyuu! So I will not ignore it ;3

Thankyuu for reading and reviewing! Here is the update!

AliasStars-San: It's okay. I intended for people to want them dead. Punching your phone? So you read mobile too?

That song is not correct however I may use that later I love those songs. I have the together version as well.

Hmm.. What was Oliver typing. ;3 Lily was at a friend's house as I clarified in this chapter.

Rin's reaction and Len's "possible" other kills will be in later chapters. ^^

Better and better really? Thankyuu I try. Here is the update!

PandaHeroLeRin-San: Thankyuu for your love of the story and the review. Soundless voice and Falling Falling snow are not it, Adolescence is! Hmm now I want to write something about those songs now. ^^ Favorite author of all time? ^/^ Why thank you! Nice to meet you!~

miabia100-San: it made your day? You're welcome and Aww Well thankyuu ^^ I'm very happy you like it. This review here actually pushed me to write more. I've been out of sorts lately, but I'd NEVER discontinue a story ^^ so thankyuu for that.

And Thankyuu for reading, favoriting, following: l Shadow Bard l, CaptainAperture, Amaya Snow, DarkBloodyAngelOfAbyss, XxxPuppylove12xxX, punkinprincess2

And anyone else who read!

Footnotes

(1) The girl is Sonika, Len doesn't know her name

(2) "twin"- This is not twincest. Though Gumi does Think Rin and Len are related. Len's irritated at being called this…Why?

(3)It's useless. You're being watched-Lines from Miku's song Secret Police. Idk thought it fit the Chapter.

Constructive criticism is welcome, but please don't flame me. I'm new to this

Review please! Please! PLEASE

Thankyuu


P.S. Who do you think the "figure" is? Is it a Vocaloid? Male? Female? Answer in a review closest gets the Dedication!
