~*Mirror of Magic*~

They were two opposites in a universe and were fated to never be able to meet.

When one lived a happy and fortunate life, the other would live a miserable and unfortunate one. Before, the girl was the one who had lived the happy life, while the boy lived the miserable one. The tables turned after the boy changed his acts so he would live a happy life. What he didn't know when he did that, was that he would ruin the fortunate girls life. They were, after all, created to be opposites in this universe.

When he found out what happened to the young lad, he vowed to himself that he would do everything to see the girl smile and be happy once again. He would grant everything she wished for through the mirror so her happiness would return. She would chant his name on the other side of the mirror signaling him to grant her the wish.

Each night, until the spell ended, would be the magic of the opposites. Even if he grants all her wishes for her happiness, in exchange, he would have to return to his life from before, but he didn't care. He was a magician meant just for her in that universe, after all.

Magician (Len)'s POV

I sat in a dark room of a locked tower. My flaxen hair reflecting the moonlight that entered through a small window across the room. The deep, cerulean orbs in my eyes were filled with hate and misfortune. A black cape was wrapped around me to keep myself warm through the night and the only thing I could hear was the sound of my beating heart in this empty room.

I was shunned in contempt by the citizens and I was hated out of fear. My parents left me right after I was born and I couldn't bare the fact they did. I wasn't given a name, so the only thing I was called was the "Prince of Misfortune". Whenever I was around, I would cause them misfortune by doing it on my own. I had magic, so I used them to my own abilities to make sure I wasn't the only one with this miserable life, or as I call it a curse.

I was alone for my whole life. Never was I trained with politeness or anything of that sort. No one wanted to be my friend since they knew I would bring misfortune to their life just because of the name I was given. Everything was like a curse to me and I didn't know why, until one night I found the cause of it.

A storm was happening outside, and the citizens blamed me for this uneventful day. There was a knock on the door outside of the tower, probably another citizen who would complain, so I decided to leave it. The knocking continued for 10 more minutes, which started to bother me a lot, so I got up and headed over towards the door. I hadn't invited anyone, so it must be a citizen who came to complain.

I unlocked the wooden boundary and slightly opened it to see a soaked, young man who was holding a mirror in his hands. He had long, lavender hair tied in a ponytail. His eyes seem to sparkle from delight from seeing me, along with that smile on his face.

"Is there anything I can do for you sir?" I asked, with a hint of curiosity in my voice.

His smile seemed to widen from the question, "Do you want to know who the cause of your misfortune is?"

That perked up my curiosity even more. Why would he be asking something like that? Though, I did want to know why my life is filled with misfortune.

I nodded my head slowly to his response feeling a bit worried on what he would say.

"Take a look into this magic mirror and see for yourself", he answered, holding the mirror up for me to see.

I raised an eyebrow, but I listened to what he said and looked inside the mirror in front of me. Instead of my reflection, I saw a young, fortunate girl, around my age, reflected inside. Her blonde hair was dancing in the wind while she happily viewed the scenery on her father's back, while a smile was planted on her face. In her eyes, that was almost identical to mine but had a brighter shade, reflected joy and happiness that I never had.

At the sight of her happiness, I felt my bewildered heart shake in doubt. It can't be her who stole my happiness. It just simply can't. She looks so innocent and kind to do such thing.

The young boy saw that I didn't believe that the girl was the reason I was living a life filled with misfortune, so he persuaded me by saying, "But… what if it's the truth? Everything is the opposite on the other side of the mirror"

Is it true though? Has all my happiness been taken away by that girl?

After thinking about it, I felt my heart fall and started to be dyed with hate towards the girl inside the mirror.

The balance scales of fate switched at the moment. I decided that the next day I would change everything in my life, especially how people see me. I'll forget the wrong I have done in my life, so that my 'blessings' could be carried on to the citizens.

Years passed since that day I decided to change myself. That same day when my hatred was built up towards the girl, but I never knew that her life would've changed to the worst. Mine was now a life of happiness, while her life was filled with misery. I never knew that she lost her family on that next day. Never had I felt regret, but now I learned that you can't feel fully happy all your life.

Sunlight spread across a bright room inside of the tower, which used to be dark and locked up. The sounds of people's voices echoed inside the tower, not like it was empty like before.

I was adored from respect and revered out of love. I would make sure that everyone was living a happy life, and they would return it with a sign of gratitude. I didn't feel lonely anymore after I changed. Though, I didn't make any friends, since they just loved me because I granted them 'blessings'. The only thing that mattered was that I wasn't lonely anymore or hated.

I was called the "Prince of Fortune" for bringing such fortunate things to their lives than misfortune. My life felt so fortunate as well. I was loved, adored, and most of all, I wasn't lonely like before. People would come and ask me for wishes, or to just thank me for making them happy, but I felt like there was something missing in my life. I still felt a little lonely, like I needed someone by me who knows what I'm going through. Was it a friend?

I just stood in the tower, glancing outside at the beautiful scenery, on the awfully sunny day, when I someone told me that there was a guest. I turned around to see a young man who looked very familiar. His lavender hair, tied into a ponytail, with that smile I have seen before. That mirror in his hands that I have also seen before.

That's when it struck me. He was that same exact guy who told me about that girl who I despised. I wonder what type of news he brought to me about the girl, now.

He suddenly asked, "Who is the reason of your happiness, the Prince of Fortune?"

I was confused. There was someone who caused my happiness?

At the sight of my confused face, he responded, "Take a look in this magic mirror and see it for yourself"

I glanced in the same mirror from before and saw the exact same girl reflected in it, but this time she wasn't happy at all. Tears were falling out of her eyes and landing on the floor beneath her. I saw a headline on a newspaper just beside her that read: "Three members of the Kagene family found dead". Am I the reason for her curse? That her loved ones had disappeared from her life?

I want to see her smile like before. Her smile is gouging out my heart. Is it the truth I was the reason for her misery? It can't be.

"But… what if it's the truth?" that same boy asked once again.

Was I the reason your happiness was taken away from you by my selfishness? Was it stolen away by me on that exact same fateful day I had?

My heart was shaking and I felt that her expression was making it dye with grief. The happiness I had was created because of your sorrow, wasn't it? If happiness is reflected on my side of this universe, then sadness is reflected in yours, like before when it was the opposite. It is true then that everything is opposite on the other side of the mirror.

Fate's balance scales were destroyed by the hands of mine, being reduced into fragments as small as the molecules. The past I thought I abandoned, started returning. I started remembering those memories of sin I had done back then. Why are those memories returning to me now, just to torment me?

I felt hatred starting to return to me. Hatred towards the girl who made my life miserable before, yet it my heart hurts so much right now. Why?

We are the opposites of each other, so would that mean if I hate you, I hate myself? Is the amount of tears you shed, the same as the times I had laughed?

If my happiness leads to your curse, what should I do to save you from it?

I looked down and started saying, "What should I do to save you?"

I repeated it over and over again, but each time I said it, I gradually started saying it louder than the one before.

Then, an idea popped out in my head, "That's right… I shall have to… grant anything you wish for"

The boy seemed to look amazed at my idea, "Prince of Fortune, you aren't going to-"

I just gave a determined look and replied, "The only thing that matters is that she's happy. I wasn't meant to be the one to be happy in the first place"

He just nodded his head and handed me the mirror he was holding.

That's when everything started. I would grant her wishes from my side of the mirror and it will appear at her side. She had given me a name. A name I really loved since it was a name that a normal person would have, and that name was Len Kagamine. It made sense to have a last name referring to a mirror, but a name that my parents were never able to be give me was something more special.

She would chant my name on her side of the mirror ever since the day I decided to grant her all her wishes. Her happiness was what mattered, and mine was never supposed to exist, but I didn't care. She understood me perfectly and filled the loneliness I had been feeling. Rin was the first friend that I ever made and it was like I had another purpose of fulfilling her happiness.

On the day I had granted all her wishes, the boy had told me it was time to end the magic of the mirror by breaking it. I agreed, feeling sad that I had to stop being with Rin any longer.

I glanced back at the mirror and announced to Rin in a sad voice, "Rin, I must leave now…."

Her eyes started welling up with those same tears that had fallen ever since that day I saw you in this mirror.

"Len, please don't leave!" she yelled.

I didn't want to leave either, but I had to, "I'm sorry, but the spell is fading and I can no longer stay. I must say… goodbye"

"Don't say that!" I heard Rin shout, her tears running down her cheeks.

Her tears reminded me about mine years ago, so I softly said, "So please, don't cry, Rin"

She put her face in her hands, while saying, "So, don't leave me alone, please!"

"I'm sorry, but we were never meant to meet in this universe. I'm just returning the things you have given me", I replied, "I won't ever forget your smiles and your tears"

I pointed at her, "So, don't forget me either, my dear Rin. Promise me that"

I saw the image of her fading hand reach out to mine and I felt her warm hand wrap around mine.

My voice went down into a whisper as I laughed, "I guess this is farewell"

The image of her disappeared from the mirror as it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

I wonder if you would be crying on the other side of the mirror. I don't want to, but you lost me and I lost you. I felt a single tear run down my cheeks. It would be nice if I could see you again someday.

The little boy said, "It hurts to leave the one you love, doesn't it? Especially if you two weren't fated to meet…"

I just stared at the boy who was cleaning up the broken glass and throwing it out.

"Except, that mirror had to be broken. It wasn't supposed to exist. I would have broken it myself, but only a strong bond is able to shatter the strong glass boundary"

One more tear fell out of my eye, I wish there's a way for me to see you again. Just another way, but we're separated by fate and we can't ever meet. Until that day we meet again, Rin, my dearest…

A/N: I updated! Woohoo!
I done the answer song just because rilenchan3700 said I should. One request is enough for me.
*Sigh* I can't believe this made me cry again! ;-;
I hope you guys like it! Please tell me if there's grammar or spelling mistakes! Even if I used Microsoft, sometimes it doesn't do spell check!
Well, here's another question:

Should I do an Epilogue for this?

Two request, I guess. I feel like all my inspirations for new stories are dumped into this, but I don't care. There's some time left for them, right?
