Chapter 5. I have no idea what I'm doing with my life anymore. Oh well. Read and leave a review if you can.

~GUMI' POV~

"What the heck is that?" Gumi looked at the photo. The picture was blurry and weird but it was quite clearly a person with six arms and a box head.

Miku shrugged her shoulders. "I may be a genius but these things aren't something I recognise. So? Do you wanna find her?"

"How can we find her in the middle of city Miku?" Gumi asked her.

"She's at an alleyway between the back of the mall we visited and the resident district." Rin said while walking off. Gumi and Miku looked at her with a face of pure confusion. "Are you gonna find her?"

Miku fumbled with her coat and threw an extra jacket to Gumi. They went to the car and drove to the alleyway of the mall.

"Hey Rin. How did you figure out that the person was there?" Gumi asked.

"I have my ways." Gumi was rather discomforted by her response but thought nothing of it.

"Also Miku. Why do you want to find her that badly?"

"I'm curious okay? Ever since that scientific Len showed up at our doorstep blabbering about multiple worlds I'm curious about weird things that happen around here."

Miku pulled up beside the alleyway entrance. "Who would stay here to make sure we can get out of here when metal hits the fan?"

"No one. We'll all by going right now." Rin grabbed both Gumi and Miku and dragged them out off the car and into the alley. Miku pulled herself out of her iron grip and adjusted her coat.

"Hello?" Gumi called out "Is anyone here?"

Miku smacked her head. "Idiot!" She whispered to Gumi "Now she knows we're coming." Gumi rubbed her head and muttered something about not being so violent before walking forward into the dark alley.

~ECHO!Gumi~

Someone's coming but who is it? She could have sworn she picked the best place to hide. It was somewhere that was not covered by security cameras and was not a place where people would check out. Gumi stood up stretching her six arms. She could see but everything was blurry and also in black and white. The only thing she could see right now was three indistinct blobs advancing. At least she thought they were advancing. Ah well. Let's see what they want.

"Hello? Can you hear us?" a girl asked without a trace of emotion.

How can someone speak so… emotionlessly? Her train of thought was derailed as another girl probably older asked the same question.

Gumi nodded her head and replied with a "Yes," the word flashing up on the television screen she had for a head and for the sixth time this week she wondered who thought it was good idea to give her a damned television for a head.

"Why do have a television for a head?" Another girl cautiously asked.

Gumi shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. "I dunno. Some genius decided it was a good idea."

"What do you want from me?" The words flashed white in the black background and her voice was deadly serious.

"Well that escalated quickly. I'm here to ask whether you'll like to come with us back home?"

Gumi felt something different. Instead of all of her senses telling her 'RUN AS FAST AS POSSIBLE AWAY!' She felt safe and secure, something that she have not felt in a long long time.

"Ok. Just don't try anything funny." Gumi stood up and walked past them.

Gumi heard them walking behind her. Why was she trusting them? Ah well. Too late to turn back now.

~Miku's POV~

Well that was easier than expected. Miku walked into the car and started up the engine. The six armed girl walked in with some problems. The television slammed to the side of the car. Rin guided the tv head through the opening and got in after her.

They drove back to the mansion. The tv head switched between pitch black, blinding white and static. Back at the mansion. Rin carefully moved the television through the door opening and Gumi helped the girl to the door.

"Welcome to our house." Miku told the girl. She walked and slammed her head into wall. Labcoat Len walked out the door, a tired and slightly annoyed look on his face. When he saw the girl walking around in a circle he walked over and knocked on the tv. The girl swung around all six arms slamming into him. But he barely flinched or even moved.

"How the…" the girl stumbled back.

"Guarding cloth. It goes rigid and the force of the hit dissipates almost instantly." Len walked towards her.

Miku ran in front of her, arms spread to protect her.

"Hey. Hey. I'm not gonna hurt her. The head is sloppily built I wanna make a new one for her." He explained.

The girl got up and walked to him. "You can build a new one for me?" Len nodded his head.

"Ok. Let's go." The girl walked off.
