Len Kagamine is an average student, if you exclude the fact that he's a Holder which are people with special abilities. He has always kept his ability a secret in pursuit of a normal life. However, when his class has a transfer student his secret is put to danger. Rated T for Violence. THIS STORY HAS BEEN REWRITTEN. The remake of this story's title is 'Holder'.

9. Tournament: Round 1 Intermission

UPDATE!

I'm incredibly sorry for the lack of updates this past month, but I was too occupied to write anything. There are 2 main reasons why I wasn't able to update. One was because I was trying to get a Student VISA so I could study through the rest of my high school days in the US. Hence, I was busy preparing, however, I was denied by the private school there because they didn't want me to begin attending the school during the middle of the 2nd semester. Sooooo now I have to wait till July… yay~ Okay so the other reason was League of Legends… yeaaaah. I know I shouldn't be gaming instead of writing, but I couldn't help it D;

Alright then, I'm immensely sorry for not updating and it doesn't make it any better that I'm writing an update/explanation instead of uploading a decently length chapter… sooooo to compensate for that; here's a short chapter!

(*IMPORTANT* Please check the previous chapter. I updated the 'pamphlet' so you can actually see who's going against each other on the first round. *IMPORTANT*)

Chapter Nine – Tournament Round 1 Intermission

Len POV

"Good job guys." Neru greeted us as we came up to the spectator seats.

"Hehe. I was pretty great, wasn't I?" Gakupo stuck a pose as he flaunted his win.

"That was impressive, Rin." Neru complimented her in true modesty.

"Oh, thanks." Rin was startled by Neru's comment. She was surprised because Neru had never really praised her about anything throughout the entire time they knew each other.

"Yup, but you won't be able to win my Len over." Neru teased and stuck her tongue out at Rin.

"W-what? W-who said I was trying to win him over?!" Rin retorted in a rather high tone.

"Mhm." Neru replied unconvinced.

"Why did they have to do an intermission right when it was about to be my turn?!" Teto fumes angrily.

"Relax, it'll be over in 20 minutes." I tried to calm her down. The resting period is 30 minutes but we spent 10 minutes changing out of our school uniform before we came up here. Those who already fought had no need to change, while everyone else including myself went to change in the locker rooms. Of course we went to separate locker rooms because of our genders, so I was the only one to change by myself. I didn't really mind being by myself, but I did get some malice filled stares from other male participants who were also in the room.

"I wonder who this Namine Ritsu is…" Piko wondered out loud as he looked down at the pamphlet.

"Hmm… I'm not sure." Meiko scratched her chin.

"Sounds like a girl's name." Gakupo commented.

"Namine Ritsu, First year, class S." Neru answered their curiosity.

"A girl from our school, which both Meiko and Gakupo don't know about. How mysterious." I said and chuckled.

"Why do you think that I'll know every single girl in the school?" Gakupo gave me a stern look.

"Cause you're you." Piko answered for me.

"What's that supposed to mean?!" Gakupo shouted in question.

"Anyways." Neru spoke up. "She's from our school and also participating in this tournament so she might be a Holder, so be cautious Teto." She warned.

"Don't worry! I'll be fine!" Teto exclaimed enthusiastically.

"Oh, Namine is from my class." Kaiko said in realization.

"If she's from your class how come you didn't realize sooner?" Miku tilted her head curiously.

"Well… she's really reserved. I've never seen her talk other than the times the teacher calls on her to read out of the text book." Kaiko explained.

"Reminds me of a certain someone." Meiko joked and patted Kaiko's shoulder causing Kaiko's cheek to light up in embarrassment.

"T-that was different!" Kaiko stated. "I talked to Kyu!"

"I don't think that really counts." Rin said with an awkward smile.

"Well it doesn't matter since she has us now." I said and grinned at Kaiko. Her face lit up a light crimson and she lowered her gaze down to the floor.

"Alright alright!" Neru said loudly and stepped between Kaiko and I. "No one is allowed to get into intimate situations with Len… other than me." Neru added the last part in silently.

"The tournament shall resume in 5 minutes. Contestants Namine Ritsu and Kasane Teto please come onto the platform. The other contestants may stay where they are if they desire to do so, however when it is your turn to fight you must be here or you will be disqualified." The voice instructed through the intercom.

"Yay! It's my turn!" Teto shouted and stood up. "I'm going then!" she gave us a short wave and quickly left the spectator area.

"Good luck!" Miku cheered after Teto.

General POV

"It seems both participants are here now. If you're ready I shall now commence the match."

"I've been ready!"

"…"

"Then the 5th match will now begin!"

CHAPTER END

A/N – Okay incredibly short chapter, but I'm already working on the next chapter, so expect another update within the week!... Hopefully ;; I might work on a short story on the side just to get my creative juices going… why does that sound indecent. EHEM. Anyways. The proof-reader spot is still open. Oh and it evolved to not only just proof-reading, but a job where you get to nag at me and tell me to work on my story :D… No pay, but you get to whip me. And no, not in the dirty kind of way. Get your minds out of the gutter! So feel free to give me a PM if you're interested c;

REVIEW THE REVIEWS (Wow I haven't done this in a long time)

Divine Service – Battle scenes are easy to imagine, hard to word out D;. The naming thing is something I did with other characters as well, Rin for example. Kagamine means Mirror, but writing that was obvious so I changed it to Miroir, which is mirror in French, the country that she's from. You could probably notice other characters like that who originally have numbers in their name.

PandaPuppet – If you're interested feel free to give me a PM C:

CitizenOfHedwigpolis – Yeah, most people come here to see romance, but my story is more focused on action then romance… so yeaaah ;; More proofreaders the better~

I3Len – Thanks for worrying, I'm feeling greater after a month… *cough* yeah sorry for the late update D; I'm thankful since you're one of my readers who have been reading since the near beginning! Thanks for your support c:

DualStarduster – It's a short 30minute break She wouldn't be THAT mad, right? Ouo

Sheshe-AnimeLuver – The reaction may come out on the next chapter, but it'll be limited to the people in the tournament. The reaction from his classmates will come laaaaater~
