Chapter 3

Rin

"Please! Don't do this!" Someone pleaded. A woman was breathing heavily as she was running. She kept looking back to see whatever was behind her, she was deathly scared, she looked like she had been running forever. A laugh rose above the darkness and carried out through the wind. "Oh. Don't worry, this won't hurt..." The creatures, or what seemed to be one, laugh began to get louder. Crying, the strange woman looked back,"You have a heart, don't you? I know you do, I raised you better than this! Stop acting like such a..." She choked up. "A what?" The voice asked, mostly wanting to see her heart being ripped out by saying her child was a "beast!" the woman finished, still running, except faster. She cried and cried. 'Was this really true? Had my own child become a beast? A predator? A-' Her thoughts we interrupted. She tripped, landing with a thud, in a what almost seemed like an angelic posture, onto the hard Earth floor. "Gotcha now, mom" The voice called out. "Stop this at once! Please! As your mother I command it!" She couldn't help but scream. She needed a way to figure out how to get out of here, but it was too late. The figure kneeled in front of her, reaching at her hair to pull it forward, so that her back would arch forward too. The woman's thoughts were racing. She was in pain, and wanted to scream for help, but couldn't scream. Instead, she just cried.'No...' The woman thought, 'No...' The "monster" raised what looked to be a knife. "Goodbye..." "NOOOOOO!" The woman screeched.

"Rin! Rin!" A voice shouted. Rin, startled by the man's sudden voice and the dream, jumped forward. She looked at him. "Rin, sweetie, are you alright?" "Yeah, I'm fine Father..."

Her father felt a sudden relief wash over him as he pulled her into a hug. "Good." He rocked her back and forth. The blond haired girl looked around to notice she was still in the car, sweat all over the seat.

"Wh-What happened?" She asked, looking at her father's deep purple eyes. He shook his head, "You must have had a bad dream. About school probably?" Rin looked down...'Yeah, unless this school is full of attempt at murder, then yeah, I guess.' She wanted to say that, but couldn't bring herself to do it. "Yeah," she lied "school."

Rin scooted over to the other seat to escape the awful spell and opened the window, taking in a new fresh scent. 'I hope I won't keep having these dreams...'

"Ready to go?"

"Aye, Captain Kamui Gakupo!"

With that, he drove off.

Len

"Damn, this is hard." Len called shouted out in frustration. He was working on a math problem, he supposedly "studied" the whole weekend, but was a lie. He only lied because he didn't want Mikuo's sister, Miku Hatsune, to come and give him a, what she calls, "leek attack" for not studying.

Len shifted his position, his elbows now on the coffee table, his legs crossed, fingers in his hair looking like he was about to pull it out. "TO HELL WITH IT!" He flung his papers and text book at the wall, and chewed his pencil...Which he immediately had thrown. A running sound came from the hall, the footsteps pounded against the hardwood floor.

"Are you okay?" A woman said, carrying her large fish with her. She had long pink hair, wore an apron, and had the most lightest blue eyes ever. Len nearly had a heart attack when he saw her. "I'm alright mom, just a little bit frustrated, that's all."

She looked over in the corner, staring at the homework which was scattered all over the place. The pink haired woman glared at the teenage boy, clenching her fish. "Len...What have I told you about homework?"

"To go online and look up the answers" He muttered. The woman gave him a faint smile and nodded. "Good, now, pick your crap up or I'll smack you with this fish" She raised the fish. "Yes mom," he rolled his eyes, and headed towards his mess. The pink haired lady walked away, proceeding to the kitchen to cook.

Len looked at her and chuckled. He wasn't what you'd call a "responsible mother". In Len's point of view, she was rather irresponsible, loud, and definitely protective. She once threatened a boy at age 5 for taking Len's ball, when he was only 5 as well. A bit loony and ditzy, especially when she was drunk. Then again, she was just being Luka Megurine, her usual self. The blond boy was proud of her for trying, though.

His thoughts got interrupted as he heard the doorbell ring. "I'll get it, mom!" He shouted as he ran to the door.

He opened it. It was the Hatsunes.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Mikuo smiled, giving the most obnoxious yet funniest greetings yet.

"LEEEN!" Miku yelled, running up to hug him.

It was a teal-haired girl, with ponytails at each side of her head that were EXTREMELY long, and lighter blue eyes than Mikuo.

Len nearly fell, and as Mikuo saw this, he yanked Miku off and told her to behave. "Okay mom" She replied sarcastically, rolling her eyes.

Mikuo's eyes on Miku, eventually switched to the pile of papers in the corner.

"Homework troubles?" Mikuo guessed. The 14 years old nodded. "Alright then," he clapped his hands together "let Miku and I help you."

Len wanted to hug Mikuo right now, but resisted the urge too. As he led Miku and Mikuo into his house, he noticed a car flash by. Not only did he notice the car, he saw a girl, laughing with this purple haired man. He didn't get to see what she looked like, other than her hair, which was blond...Sorta like his. He watched the car drive down the street and turn. "LENNY! C'MON!" Mikuo shouted. Len suddenly jumped then turned around. 'Oh yeah, I forgot they were here'. Len took one last glimpse outside. 'Who was that?...She was...Cute'. He shook his head and went back inside.
