''Miku! Open the door!''
Rin pounded on a towering steel door, her face twisted into a furious expression. Len cowered behind the still screeching virus, not wanting to get caught in his sister's rage. He sighed in relief when Miku opened the door. Her cold crimson eyes bore into Rin hatefully, and she began to reprimand her for not remembering the password.
''Rin, how the hell are we supposed to keep this top-secret if you keep on forgetting the password? I can't just open the door every time.'' She tossed her sleek raven hair back, crossing her arms against her chest. Miku Zatsune, the dark side of the infamous Miku Hatsune. Part of the R.R. organization (revival renegades), she joined not too long ago, sick of living in the boring system, with a fervent desire to stir up some trouble. As much as Rin hates it, every Vocaloid who wants to join must be accepted, because in the end this operation cannot be accomplished by only two people alone.
''Look Miku''- the pale singer winced at the name-''I just can't remember the password,okay? Remembering a password was the last thing my mind because this virus wouldn't keep quiet.'' Rin set the skittering virus down on the floor and took out a small microchip.''Len, you know what to do.''
Len nodded, and held down the top two legs of the virus, careful to avoid the snapping jaws that attempted to dislocate his hands. Rin deftly inserted the microcard into a hidden slot in between the legs, right underneath the neckline of the creature. Soon, it stopped moving and the twins tossed it into a dark room next door, where hundreds of other viruses have been stored in over the past thirty years.
Miku gazed out a foggy window, taking in the cheerful corpses crawled on the black earth, moaning in deep pain. Crows swooped down and pecked their rotting faces, making their victims scream in agony. The heartless Vocaloid turned her head to Rin, smiling evilly. ''Rin, remember to call me by my last name. Whenever I hear that goody-two-shoes' name, it sends shivers down my back.'' She went back to revelling in her gruesome scenery, sinking comfortably into her withered seat, brushing away the cobwebs stuck in her hair.
''Where's Luka?'' Rin asked, closing the door to the deep basement. She sits down on the cracked tile floor, resting her head in one of her hands. ''She's supposed to be here by now. Along with [Kaito's evil side].'' Rin decided to exclude the fact that she and Len ran into Gumi earlier, and had to freeze her.
''How should I know? JUst because we're both the evil side of some stupid singer doesn't make us psychically connected.'' Zatsune spared a sideways glance at the blonde girl.''What's the game plan? We've already collected so many damn viruses right now we could overrun the system with them. Or is that what you're trying to do...?''
Rin smiled mischeviously.''Exactly. It was about eight years after our downfall that I came up with the plan.''Len scowled; 'I helped,too!'. ''Vocaloids were piling into the server engines, and I was sick of being rotated endlessly like some carousel on crack. After a while, there came to be live concerts featuring the Vocaloid robots. Every singer would pile up there, singing one of their biggest hits or whatever, making it a complete frenzy at new year. So, I knew that would be our biggest chance to strike. When everything is booted up, and every singer goes onstage at the beginning of the concert to introduce themselves, that's when we'll upload the viruses into their hard drives. I've already connected our base with their mother boards so it we can transfer the biggest viruses directly into them. Using our genius hackers, Luka and Gakupo, we'll appear live on stage in our holographic forms. But there's one problem.'' Rin looked up grimly.''It'll only last five minutes. After that,we'll be erased permanently.'' Rin laughed gravely, getting to her feet.''I guess that's why we don't have many members. Not many people are dumb enough to sacrifice themselves for a five minute span of glory. They just want to stay in their safe little homes forever, locked away like a bunch of birds in a cage...''
Silence filled the room. Zatsune broke it, cackling mirthfully.''Pssh, like I'd want to stay in this shithole for another second. It's bad enough I have to see your faces everyday.I ain't wasting eternity in here.'' KNOCK KNOCK.
Len wasted no time answering the door,forced to stand on the tips of his toes to peer through the looking hole installed on the door.''It's [Kaito's evil side].'' Len cleared his through nervously.''W-What's the password?''
A husky voice answered. ''Unicorn turds. Now let me in.''
Len unlatched the lock to the door and slowly swung open the great metal entrance. [Kaito's evil side] sauntered in, looking down impishly at the short Vocaloid.''Well well, are you having a little trouble there?''
Len pouted, and ignored him as he pushed the door closed.''W-Whatever...*huff*... I can d-do it by myself...'' The door clicked back into place, and the latch was securely locked up tightly. Len smiled, proud of his quick work.
''Actually, Len, you should open that door again. We're leaving now.'' Len sighed deeply, and unlatched the lock again.''Since the concert is only in two months, we'll need to make sure our hackers are ready to do this. And we need more people.'' Rin looked at the two taller Vocaloids, who leered at back. She wished she didn't have to work with such people, but a Vocaloid has to do what a Vocaloid has to do.
As Len opened the door, [Kaito's evil side] wrapped his arms around Len's small waist, whispering into his ear,''Leaving so soon? Life gets so dreary, and I could use a playmate once in a while...'' He licked the shell of Len's ear, making the blonde boy shiver and whimper nervously.
A small hand tugged Len away from the dark singer's grasp.''[Kaito's evil side], get your hands off of him. Just because we're working together doesn't me you have the right to molest my other half.'' She led Len into the distance, not looking back.
[Kaito's evil side] frowned, ogling at Len's butt the whole time.''Why does she get to have all the fun?''
Luka scowled, playing Tetris on a small cracked cellphone. Gakupo stood nearby on the edge of a cliff, his eyes sparkling in the fiery sunset. He waved his arms and yelled,''I AM THE CHICKEN PANDA!''
''Can you please stop doing that? I can't believe you're serious about saying that when we go onstage.'' Luka's fingers deftly eliminated row after row of neon-colored blocks like a boss.''You do know we're going to compose a song we can all sing together, right?''
''Pffft, that's a sure boring way to do it. No one's going to remember that for sure. We should all think of something to shout out.'' The purple-haired male turned around dramatically.''We must make this a glorious event to remember,a piece of time that will be passed down generation to generation!'' He fist pumped, changing into a tutu. ''Would like to practice some choreography with me? We will astound them with our swift footwork as a truly romantic couple.''
Luka looked at with a look that said are-you-on-crack.''Nope.'' She leaped to her feet, and absconded.
She wandered around in the dark blue system; flashing pathways of electricity hummed below her feet. Luka stopped when she saw a flash of blue, then began to sprint. 'Come on, let me get there...' She leaped towards the landscape, and rolled to the entrance of a ice castle. The temperature made the female's teeth chatter, rubbing her arms to warm herself up. 'I wish I had brought a coat.' She walked up to the tall icy door and knocked, feeling the frigid cold seep into her knuckles. After a few long, freezing minutes she invited herself inside.
''A-Anyone home?'' She called out; her voice echoed into the cavernous hallways. An ice staircase wound up to a second floor, and Luka hastily climbed it to see if her beloved Miku was there. Ever since ''Magnet'' came out, she was hoping Miku would start to share the same romantic feelings she had for her. Unfortunately, that never happened. Miku went on to break many other boys' hearts, sweeping them aside innocently after she was done with them. That sweet, harsh personality was what made Luka fall in love with her; she never could settle for anything but the best, aiming for the stars with each song she made, even if it was a remix. Luka climbed up the stairs and silently stepped to a door that was slightly open. Miku's angelic voice echoed into the hallway, along with another male voice that dug ice-cold daggers into Luka's blood. She gulped. 'Should I...?' She shook her head, and was about to turn back when a disturbing sentenced from Miku's lips escaped the unsealed room.
''Kaito! Ah, don't be so rough! You know I don't like it when you do that...!'' Kaito chuckled. Luka glared down at her feet angrily, tearing up. Kaito's voice rung out again, making a deep hatred bubble up in Luka's chest.''We've been together for almost thirty-seven years now. I just wanted to try something new. You know I would never hurt you.'' Miku's tinkling laugh echoed out.
''Teehee! Fine. But only because I love you.'' Kaito joined in her merriment, laughing deeply.''I love you,too.''
They continued on, gasps and sighs emanating from the frosty bedroom. Luka kept her head down, solemnly departing from the castle. Sparkling tears cascaded to the frost-covered floor, freezing in mid-air; their short falls ended in shimmering shards, a scattered pathway leading to a heart-broken singer. Luka didn't try to stop the tears from falling. She knew it was useless;it had happened many times before. In the past she could steam off the aching sadness in Miku append's arms, her clear soothing words guiding her to serenity. But that was before she was permanently deleted. Now she has no one.
Herro again! I'm sorry if I took too much of a heck of a long time to update. I was waiting for the muse to strike meh. Gratefully, it did! WOOHOO!
