It's a little bit late, sorry, but I was busy working on another story, of which the first short chapter has already been released, for those interested, it's called Artificial Selection.
Now back to this story, I apologize once again, and now, thanks to all readers and reviewers!
Hana Okita: Melt wouldn't be the best name indeed, and I don't really like Yellow as well... I like the song, but as a name? No... I can tell that his will be some kind of LenxMiku, but some kind of LenxRin as well. It's not really either of those actually, let's just say it's quite complicated and will be answered over time, okay?
awesome dt: It's complicated! But yes, you're right at some point. Thanks for the compliment, I really thought it was horribly written, but I'm glad you liked it. :)
mahimo: That helped a lot! Seriously, now I've got quite some names to choose from, and I can't make a decision. I really like StarDuster...
KeyamiLove: Thanks so much! I think it's because English isn't my native language, sometimes it's really hard to find the right words to say something, and then I'll have to make-do with the words I know and Google translate, how I wish I was a native speaker!
I just love StarGazer! I don't really know which one to choose, but anyways, thanks for suggesting and reviewing.
This chapter will be a bit boring, sorry! Next chapter will be Rin and Len action again, so look forward to it!
I don't own Vocaloid, didn't get it for Christmas last year, so no, I don't own it.

Miku p.o.v (sorry guys, back to Miku)
"We're we going? Are we there yet?" Rin practically dragged me along while Len was calmly walking behind us, keeping a sharp eye on his sister. He had taken his glasses off only moments after we left the school grounds, which actually surprised me, normally he would keep them on untill we arrived at the training grounds.
"You'll see, we're going to a very special place!" Was all Rin said, ignoring my second question, she had a bright smile on her face. "Today is a very important day Miku, you've been training with us for a week, and now you're ready to take your test." The test... The test... The test! They had mentioned it before. Had it been a week already? Time sure passed quickly while training with the twins.
At the thought of training I winced in pain, it was fun, but they were harsh, and I'd fallen a couple of times. And they never gave me a moment to catch my breath, yelling at me to get up. But the training was for my own good, wasn't it? My body didn't agree, that I was sure of.
"Rin, please, be a little bit more careful with our dear Miku, I think she's in pain." Here it was again, it seems like Len doesn't like me, but at other moments it seems like he does care for me, I don't know if he's my friend, or not. But I hope he is...
"Yeah, all right Len. Do we have to go left or right?" Rin asked, while turning around to face her brother.
"At this corner we have to go left. Don't tell me you forgot where it is." I was impressed, to say the least, it was the first time they'd actually communicated with each other using words in my presence. I wondered, were they capable of telepathy or something like that?
Len walked passed us, going left and continuing on his way. "I know were it is, I'm just confused, we haven't been there for... For..." "A whole week?" Len provided. "Whatever." Rin shrugged and continued dragging me along.
"Are we there yet?" I asked. "No, we're not, we're there when we're there." Len answered. Rin chuckled. "Let's sing... Wait, we can't..." She said, suddenly she turned very sad and stopped walking. Len stopped as well. "Come on Rin, know's not the time to cry about such things!" At first I thought Rin would actually argue that, but she just walked on again.
Five minutes passed before I broke the silence. "Are we there yet?"

Finally we arrived at our destination, an abandoned building, a large sign next to the entrance read: Yahama Studios. I looked around, but nothing particularly stood out. It used to be quite a fancy building, with flags, a big entrance and a fountain in front, but now it was stripped of all sorts of decoration. It was just a big grey building with a sign, nothing more, nothing less.
"So, why are we here?" I asked. The twins obviously had a habit of bringing me to all sorts of places, but this one didn't make sense, at all. "This is the headquarters of Vocaloid, all of our music is recorded here, and the big bosses practically live here as well." Rin answered before entering the building, which went surprisingly easy.
"If this is the headquarters, why are there no guards?" I asked, I mean, wouldn't that seem logical, guards to keep unwanted people outside.
Len answered me, but his answer didn't make much sense: "Of course there's guards, you're just not able to see them." Rin decided to clear things up a little. "They're like ninjas!" Great!... Ninja-guards... Wonderful...
"You're coming?" Len asked, that guy could move quickly when you didn't pay attention, it scared me a little... Luckily we're on the same side. "Coming!" And I ran to catch up with him.
We walked through the deserted rooms, once they must've looked gorgeous, now they were just empty and forgotten. It made me kind of sad, people used to work here, as a studio, wasn't this a place were dreams came true? To see it like this... It reassured me, I remembered what I was fighting for.
As soon as we entered the second floor things changed, colour returned and we were walking in a bright and lively place. People worked in every room we passed, and even the hallways, which were empty downstairs, were busy. Maybe that first floor was used as a reminder, to make people remember their goal, like it had with me.

We walked on for quite some time, Rin and Len didn't even bother to introduce me to anyone. "You'll get to know them soon enough." They told me. As if! No way that was going to happen.
at the fifteenth, and highest floor, we finally came to a halt in front of a door which supposedly lead to the main office. Rin did one step forward and knocked on the door. "Is that you Rin? Come in." A woman's voice said. It wasn't chirpy like mine, it sounded more deep and mysterious. I wondered, what kind of woman had a voice like that?
It wasn't long before I met her, when we walked in I saw three people sitting around a table. There was one man, and two women. "Miku, may I introduce you to Luka..." She pointed at a young lady, a few years older than me I guess, with long pink hair. "It's a pleasure to meet you." She said, and I recognised her voice as the one from before.
Rin continued with her introduction. "This is Meiko." The other woman, probably the same age as Luka, maybe a little bit older, with short brown hair gave a quiet nod. "And last Kaito, also known as Bakaito." She faced Kaito, who didn't seem pleased.
"If it wasn't for your brother, I would kill you now." Then he remembered me being here. "Nice to meet you Miku, Rin and Len told us a lot about you, do you like ice cream?"
"Yes, I do." Wait, what did he just ask me, and what did he mean with what he'd told Rin earlier? I looked at Rin, but the girl seemed to be blind to it.
"Anyways, can I take her to the studios?" Rin asked, weird, she didn't say we. "Is Len not coming with us?" I asked, confused. "Of course." Rin said, realizing her mistake. Len didn't even seem to mind. Instead he took our arms and dragged us out if the room.
"Those people in there are the three generals of Vocaloid, they make all of the important decisions and make all plans, just so you know." Rin explained to me while being dragged by her brother.
"Don't mind Kaito, he eats too much ice cream." Len said. It didn't calm me down. "He cares about you Len, what if he loves you?" Len shrugged. "More people love me, does that mean I have to love each and everyone of them back?" "N-no, but he is a man, and you're a boy!" I tried. But it was no use. "I couldn't care less, even if he became green and grew eight extra arms, it doesn't matter, I don't love him."
Rin had stayed quiet during our short conversation, but she spoke up now. "But you love me, don't you Len?" She asked. "Of course," he answered. "You're my sister, ain't I supposed to love you?" Somehow Rin wasn't pleased with his answer.
It was quiet for a moment before she spoke again. "Of course you love me, but do you love me in the same way as I do?" She asked, and Len didn't answer, it seemed like he didn't even hear her. But I did, and it scared me.

This is one of the shorter chapters, sorry, but I thought this was a nice point to stop, and quite a lot happened. Miku met her future bosses, which are Meiko, Kaito and Luka! And sorry, but I couldn't resist making Kaito an ice cream freak. x)
No, this is not KaitoxLen, he doesn't mean it like that, yes, he cares for Len, no, he isn't in love with Len. It will all make sense somewhere in the future, for now you'll have to deal with it.
Next chapter will be longer, and will have more action. Sorry, I know it's bad, but don't get too upset. Please leave a review, thanks for reading. :)
