Nami Uchiha 1313: Thanks, Nami Uchiha-san / It's really a relief to know someone likes my song… (My friends from school doesn't like it…)
KitsuneTHY: Ah~ thanks, Carol-chan… And I really don't think my fanfictions are that great . And I'm glad that you don't think the song is crappy… (It is to me though!) And I can't wait for your so-called lame fanfiction! (I'm sure it'll be great though~)

Disclaimer: *inhale* I won't because my wish is never granted, plus, if I owned them, they would suck and won't be able to reach the success they have now and I seriously think Crypton is better of with them than me so they wouldn't suck so much, not like they are suck now, and if I owned them I wouldn't be writing this fanfiction. *breathe* If you still don't understand then, I DON'T OWN VOCALOID!
Chapter 2: Tightrope Danger!
"And for the next performance, we will give you two daring females, brave enough to do a mans job of TIGHTROPE WALKING!" Kaito yelled out to the audience. Aoki and Rion stood at the backside, biting their lips off.
They've always been like this. They look confident up on the tightrope, but inside, they were scared. Scared to no end. Especially Aoki.
"I give you, the daring Aoki Lapis and Tone Rion!"
In a split second, their nervous expression was wiped out, changed with a look of fake confidence. Breathing deeply, they stepped into the tent together.
"It will be alright, Aoki," Rion whispered to Aoki right before they step into the ring. The audience cheered, already ecstatic by their appearance. They smiled to them and bowed. Separating ways, they walked to the pole holding the rope.
Aoki stood on one side, Rion on the other, both holding a stick as long as a fishing rod, weighing as heavy as holding a pile of books. Both Rion and Aoki are grateful to have perfect weigh balance… that way, they can be 50% sure that they won't fall…
The other 50%... they're not so sure…
Taking a deep breath, Aoki stepped onto the rope, as Rion did. They calmly walked on the rope, not looking down to the ground.
Meanwhile, in a room so dark you can't see anything, a blonde-haired girl and a raven-haired girl gave out a giggle. They were of the same height, and same age.
In front of them, a crystal ball rests on a table.
Displayed in the crystal ball, is Aoki and Rion walking on the rope, in the circus.
"Are you enjoying it, my twins?" a deep but feminine voice asked.
The two girls being asked simply let out another giggle.
"I see… then I'm sorry to have disturbed you two…"
The two who were sitting on a chair simply smiled at the crystal ball, enjoying the show completely...
Back at the circus, Aoki bit her lips, looking at Rion who was still faking her confidence. Rion smiled at her, making Aoki have a little bit of true confidence. Suddenly, when they reached the middle, the rope snapped into two, which made Rion and Aoki fall.
Rion, being the fast-reflex girl she is, caught the rope just in time before falling, capturing Aoki's hand in the process.
"A-Aoki… hold on…" she whispered.
Len, Rin, Miku, Mikuo and Neru who were watching them the whole time widen their eyes. Len looked towards Rin as Rin did the same. Nodding to themselves they ran into the tent.
Kaito, who was in the middle of the ring, stared at them helplessly.
"Kaito!"
Kaito turned to Rin and Len, sending a silent signal of 'Help them!'
"Tell the audience to leave, and tell them they'll get a special bonus day tomorrow!" Len told Kaito. Kaito nodded and turned back to the audience who were panicking.
"Please, give us cooperation… you may leave tonight and you all are to be given a special bonus tomorrow night… You all will be given free tickets for tomorrow night!" Kaito said to them.
The audience were guided to their shortest way out with the help of Meiko, Miku, Mikuo and Neru. While they were guiding the audience out, Rin and Len climbed the pole that was the shortest way to do to the bar swings.
"Aoki-san! Rion-san! Don't panic! We'll get you off of there! Aoki-san, don't let go of Rion-san's hand!" Len yelled to them.
Giving Len a simple nod, Rion tighten her grip on Aoki's hand. Aoki looked up to her and closed her eyes.
'Please… please let us live…' Aoki prayed.
'If not me… then, at least…'
Aoki's hand suddenly slipped from Rion grip. Aoki didn't open her eyes. Instead, she kept praying.
'Rion…'
'Goodbye… Rion…'
"AOKI!" Rion started to cry.
Len quickly jump down, hanging down with his legs on the bar swing. Extending his hands downwards, he let himself hang.
THUMP
He reached Aoki.
THUMP
He reached out to her.
THUMP
He caught her hand.
THUMP
He pulled her up and swung back to the pole that's the closest to them.
The rope Rion was holding on suddenly snapped, making her fall. Now, was Aoki's turn to cry.
"RION! RIOON!" Aoki wanted to jump down, but was held back by Len.
Rin, who was ready to swing down, quickly swing down, catching Rion's hand just in time. Pulling the frightened Rion up the pole with her, Rin quickly swing back to the pole she stood before.
Rion's breathing was short and fast, tears running down her cheek rapidly.
"Rion-san, are you okay?" Rin stroke Rion's hair gently. In response, Rion hugged Rin tightly, sobbing into Rin's shirt. Rin continue to stroke her hair.
"It's okay… it's okay…" Rin said over and over again.
After all that, everyone returned to their tents, taking their belongings to go to their apartments.
Meanwhile, Len was staring at his desk, completely blank in mind.
"-en? LEEEEEEEEEEENNNNN!" Rin's shrieking, however, made him jump back into reality.
Clutching his left ear (which was the ear Rin shrieked in) he cursed to himself for spacing out when he knew Rin would come in, and call for him.
"S-Sorry, Rin… I was spacing out…"
"Again, you mean?" Rin said, annoyed by Len's weird habit of spacing out.
But… he was her spacing out, weird, banana-loving, sweet, charming, prince-like and love-able best friend.
Yes, she admits it… she is in love with her own best friend. She stopped denying it yearssssss ago…
"Are you ready to go back to the apartment, or what?"
Len smiled, took his bag, and walked to their apartment with Rin
At the apartment room that Len shared with Mikuo, Len sat on the couch, staring at the television. But he wasn't exactly paying attention to the show.
Mikuo, who just came out of the shower stared at Len weirdly, a towel hanging around his neck.
'Is he watching the T.V or is he spacing out?' Mikuo thought.
Being Len's roommate every time they travel made Mikuo know a LOT about Len's behavior. For example, when he is watching T.V, Len's eyes would wander around the screen but when he's spacing out, his eyes would stay still at one spot on the screen.
But now, he was doing neither.
He was tracing the outline of the screen, his eyes concentrating on it.
"Oi, Len!"
No response.
"He's spacing out alright…" Mikuo said aloud. Shaking his head, he went to the kitchen to get some milk.
Then, the slamming of a door was heard. Mikuo looked at the living room to see no Len.
'Must've gone to his room…' Mikuo thought as he continued to drink his milk.
Back at Rin and Miku's apartment, Rin was sitting on Miku's bed, combing Miku's long, silky hair.
"I wonder how the rope snapped… It never snapped like that before…" Rin said, catching Miku's attention which was focused on her magazine, before.
"I don't know… must be because the rope is getting old…" Miku answered, looking back at her magazine.
"Rin, look!" Miku shoved the magazine to Rin's face after slapping Rin with her hair in the process of turning around.
"Ouch…" Rin muttered as she took the magazine and took a look. When she did, she squealed.
In the magazine, Rin and Miku's favorite boy band, AAA.
Standing up, they squealed together. Jumping around, they sang their favorite song by AAA, which was, 'Climax Jump'
A figure stood in the darkness of the night, her black hair swaying in the wind. Her eyes, as sharp as an eagle's, watched their every movement.
"Z… it's time to go…"
A boy with black hair stepped next to her as the girl formed from a portal.
"… of course…"
Both stepped into the portal and disappeared.
And the fun for those kids from that circus… ends now…
Well… that was tiring… I hope you readers like it… I'm really tired… oh well…
Chapter 3: Plate Spinner, Akita Nero preview
He spun the plate one by one, none giving any signs of falling any soon.
"What do you think?"
"…Good…"
He smirked at her as she rolled her eyes at him, hiding the fluttery feeling she feels in her heart.
