Chapter 1
I had given it my all when it came to working at school. I never missed an assignment, and I passed everyone of my tests. Never late. Never had scored anything under an A. That's what they said was good for me. So that's what I did.
I stood up, looking around me, as the machines that the hospital owned were near me. I could not recall such things in my life. It didn't seem possible that in this time I had not been conscious, Technology had advanced so much. It just seemed out of place.
"Rin.. Kagamine" I read on the paper that was wrapped around my wrist. Even my name felt like something I had heard of, but didn't recognize at the same time. But that wasn't of my interest at this time. I had to find out my life. I couldn't just sit here and wonder.
I pulled off one of the tubes that connected me to a machine, removed my gown, and I sneaked to the door, opening it slightly. It seemed that the person in charge must have been busy because I managed to escape the building. Lucky me.
Outside was simply a strange view. It wasn't as I imagined. I expected a town with small buildings, but I found myself with huge buildings that people got to on fancy cars. Clearly I was outdated. But one thing I could read by myself: the sign on a building that said "Burger Prince". There must be food.
I walked slowly toward it, right behing the people that went into the building. They have doors that open by themselves. BY THEMSELVES I TELL YOU.
Maybe I am turning old. I am an adult now. According to the girl in the hospital at least.
"Can I get a Vhopper?" A lady asked the cashier. I looked around realizing that food names had changed too. Ten years could not have been this life changing, could they?
I looked at a girl who was standing outside alone, sewing a patch onto her jeans.
"Don't worry, I'll just patch it up and it'll be fine. You don't have to get out of your way to buy me a new pair of jeans. It's pretty much impossible" I said, talking to a person as I sewed my jeans using a safety pin and string. There wasn't a needle, but I could ceirtainly improvise.
A flash of memory was all I needed to go talk to the girl. I had to.
"Sorry, I just couldn't help to notice you." I said, walking outside to talk to her. She looked up at me and gave a gentle smile. "Thank You. It means alot." She said. Her eyes expressed the loneliness inside her heart, and the kindness of a person. "Is there any way I can help you?" I said, then realized there probably wasn't much I could do, considering how much of an alien I am right now. "No, its fine. Thank You, though." She said, smiling. "You're not waiting for anyone, are you?" I asked. "No, why?" She said, finishing the patch. "Mind if I take you on a walk?" I said returning a smile. "Yeah! why not?" She said, walking beside me.
"I'll be honest, I don't know where to head to. I don't recognize this place." I said, walking on a path by the road. "Are you lost?" She said, a bit worried looking. "No, I just don't know where I am. You see, I was in a coma for ten years and I don't remember anything. But this place.. it just isn't as I expected from my memory. Unless I'm wrong. I don't know. But I want to know my past." I said.
"Then leave it to me. I know this place like the palm of my hand!" She said leading me.
"My name is Lenka, what's yours?" She said. "Mine is Rin Kagamine. At least it seems." I said with a slight laugh. "Kagamines? I only know a girl at school who's last name is that, but she doesn't really know her family. She's adopted. Pretty much everyone at school is adopted though." She said thinking.
"Oh, thats sad.. Are you adopted as well?" I asked. "No, just an orphan." She said with a smile. I don't think I could have said I was an orphan without parents with the smile she gave. That didn't seem natural.
"Why is that?" I said, walking to what seemed like a park. "I really don't know. The stories are endless. I've been told that my parens died, but also that I was abandoned as ordered by military offficials, so my parents could serve in the war, while I was also told that one died with the other surviving but never finding me. It's actually became interesting to hear all these crazy stories." She said, laughing.
"I don't know what I would do if I were you. I can't remember anything." I said. If there was something crazy I wanted to do, was yell to the world if anyone recognized me so they could help me figure out my identity. It all semmed so easy, but so hard. Finding who I was would be the biggest challenge of my life. But I was determined to face it.
Preview for next chapter...
"Hey Lenka! What you up to? Will you present me you new friend?" A guy with blonde hair in a tiny pony tail said, approaching us with his light blue bicycle. This guy seemed like a creep. Especially the banana picture on the front of his bike.
