A/N: ;-; I only got one review... Welp then... Here I guess?

I do not own Vocaloid.

Riiiiing-Riiiiiing

I ran to go get my phone.

"Hello."

"Hey! I have a favor for you." A favor?

"Sure. What is it?"

I wasn't really surprised at his request. Why couldn't he just do it though? He knew all the stuff for the job.

"Please? Will you do it?" He sounded desperate.

"What's in it for me?" The line went silent.

I started pacing the room and was about to hang up when he spoke up.

"They're alive." His voice was quiet and uneven. I stopped in my tracks.

"That's impossible." I told him.

"It's true. They've been spotted." It was almost impossible to comprehend.

"I'll do it. But only because of them."

"Good. You'll start Monday. Eighth period. Room 43." He hung up.

I won't let them share the same fate. This has to stop.

With the phone still in my ear I whispered "Ok, uncle."

(Megpoid Gumo POV)

A new schedule? But I got used to the old one! I hope it isn't much different.

"I'm home!" I yelled as I opened the door to my house. I started to take off my shoes.

"Is that you Gumo?" I heard my dad ask. He usually stays home since his body was slightly fragile. According to him and mom, when he was younger, dad was pretty tough and attended those traditional Japanese tea parties. He still does that at home. He had a bit of an accident a few years back which caused him to be slightly fragile now.

I walked into the living room and found him sitting at the kotatsu table with some tea. A kotatsu is a table with the floor sorta dug out so you can put down your legs. In the winter we use the electric heater and put a blanket in the table to keep warm. That's what it looks like right now since winter is coming up.

"Hey dad." I greeted him as I put down my bag. "How are ya feeling?"
"Better today. Sometimes I wish you and your mother would quite worrying so much." He took a sip of his tea and sighed with content. I got up and walked to the kitchen to find a snack.

"You know we have to though. I mean, after what happened last time, mom and I made it our duty to watch you."

"Yeah, but if you keep watching me lika a kid, my manly dignity will disappear." I could almost feel him pouting.

After looking through the cabinets, I got a carrot for me and an orange and a water bottle for dad. I gave him his stuff and told him "Nice try. Here, eat this. It'll help you get better." He just shook his head back and forth.

"It'll taste bad with the tea." Sighing, I poited to the water. "That's what that's for. To help you get rid of the taste so you can eat it." I went back into the kitchen to wash my carrot. Once that's done, I proceeded to munch on it like a horse. Man, is it good.

"So how's school Gumo?" He asked once I came back. "Good I guess." I then told him about how he band is having their shedules changed and the group evaluation today. I've already been telling him about the band and the evaluations, so he knows what I've been up to lately after school.

"That's cool. I hope you guys all have fun!" I nodded.

"Well, I guess I better get started on homework. Don't want Dell getting on me about it again, now do I?" He smiled and laughed. "Good luck then."
I went up to my room and pulled out my homework for the day. Luckily, it was only science and health.

I'm pretty good with science and health is pretty easy anyway. I finished all of it in about an hour and a half. Somewhere in that time, mom called and said she would get home late. "Do you mind making dinner for you and your father?" She asked me. I told her that it was no problem. "Ok then. Just make sure it isn't carrot souffle or something with an excessive amount of carrots, ok?" I mentally cussed at her. "Fine." I mumbled in the end and she hung up.

It was about 5 when I finishe homework so I decided to start on dinner.

"Hey dad, what are you in the mood for? Mom says she's gonna be late tonight so I'm cooking." I told him when I got to the living room. He was still there, drinking his tea.

"Nothing with an excessive amount of carrots in the recipe please." What does everyone think about me? That carrots are all I eat?! You guys are crazy.

"How does fried rice sound?" I asked once I saw that we had the stuff to make it.

"That sounds fine. Just don't overdo it with the carrots."

"I hear ya, alright?" I took out the stuff and started cooking. Making fried rice is pretty easy and I was done in about half an hour. That includes cleaning up the kitchen and setting our table.

I scooped a bowl for me and dad and set them on the table. We gave thanks for the food and started eating.

"This tastes pretty good Gumo. And you didn't add too much carrots!" I muttered about how he would start complaining if I did.

We ate for a while in silence just eating, but it wasn't uncomfortable. That's just how me and dad are.

"Thanks for the food, Gumo." He told me as he got up and put his now-empty bowl in the sink.

"No prob. You know I don't mind cooking. After all, I'm moving out after high school. I need to know how to take care of myself." When he came back I saw tears in his eyes and in the next moment he proceeded to attack me.

"Gumo's growing up into a dependable young man! This day has finally come! Now I feel so old!" For a slightly feeble person, he had a strong grip.

"DAD! GET OFF OF ME BEFORE YOU CHOKE ME TO DEATH!" He finally came to his senses and let go of me just in time for me to breath once again.

'That was one of the scariest moment of my life.' I thought to myself once I caught my breath.

"Sorry... Guess I got a little carried away, huh? Really Gumo, I'm sorry!" Dad started apologizing furiously to me. It was kinda funny.

"It's fine now dad! I'm alright. What happened to 'I'm going to lose my manly dignity'? Look at how you're acting now." He stopped and looked at me. Then he smiled again and gave me a pat on the back. "Don't worry about me Gumo! Haven't I told you that already?" I told him 'yeah' and went to take care of the dishes and leftovers. I saved a bowl for mom and put the rest of the fried rice in a tupperware in the fridge. After that I cleaned up the rest of the kitchen and wiped the kotatsu, since we ate at it, and did any other things that needed to be done.

Once everything was finished I showered and went to sleep. Gotta get prepared for the last day of my schedule tomorrow.

(Kirino Neru POV)

I woke up Friday at my regular time. I happy that at least won't didn't change. I checked my phone for any missed calls or texts. None. I got ready for school and as I was putting up my long yellow hair into the regular ponytail, Oliver came in.

"Hey sis, mom told me to tell you that breakfast is ready and that you should hury up." After telling me the message, he turned around and left. Oliver is my younger brother in 6th grade. He has blonde hair and golden color eyes and his little yellow bird was perched on his shoulders like always. He got it when he was in 4th grade. Mom agreed to get him a pet and that's what he wanted. A bird that he named James.

"I'll come down in a second, 'k?" I told him as I put my books into my bag. He nodded and left. Once I finished, I went downstairs and was greeted by the smell of waffles. Peering into the kitchen, I saw my mom flipping some, humming to herself. "Hey Neru! You waffles are over there." She told me pointing with the spatula she was holding. "If you want any more, just ask, ok?" I nodded and she went back to cooking. I ate my food quickly and finished getting ready for school. When I got downstairs again I saw that Dad and Oliver just about ready to leave. Once I finishes putting my shoes and grabbing my lunch on we left.

After dropping off Oliver, dad dropped me off at school. "Have a good day." He told me and drove off.

I hung out with the girls for the remainder of the time before the bell rang. When that happened we all went to our lockers and from there to the (hopefully not) last time. Gumi and I walked together since our first period was the same.

"I hope we can still be in each other's classes after the schedules are changed. Don't you?" I nodded as we entered the class.

Lunch came fairly quickly. All of us met up in the usual place-under a large tree in the courtyard. I brought out my food and started eating silently while everyone around me started talking. My mind kept wandering back to yeterday and be day before that. I never thought practicing could be so much fun, even if it was with the Princes. They were close with each other, kind of like how the girls are close. Miki and I weren't purposely left out and we were talked to a lot about the music and other random stuff.

I smiled as I remembered how much fun everyone had yesterday, too. We all laughed at each other's jokes, and the atmosphere wasn't tense at all like when we first met.

"Yooooo~ Neru? You in there?" I hear someone calling me and saw that everyone was staring at me with a confused and/or worried expression.

"You were spacing out. Normally you're on your phone. What's up?" Miku asked me, both confused and worried. I smiled and shook my head.

"Nothing's wrong. I was just remembering yesterday and how much fun it was. To me at least." I added quickly. It was quiet for a minute, then everyone started talking about yesterday and their favorite parts of, not only the song, but when practicing. It was really nice that we can finally get along. Even Rin is starting to get along with them. Except Mikuo. She still seems to try and distance herself from him. That girl can hold grudges. Mikuo keeps trying to tell her that she doesn't mind it anymore. I remember Rin telling us that she protected Rui ever since before they were adopted by their parents now.

"Oh yeah! Hey Neru, how's Oli doing?" Gumi asked me. "Ryuto wants to hang out with him sometime soon." I smiled. "Oliver's fine. Playing with his pet bird a lot of the time." Oliver and Ryuto are both in sixth grade and met each other in fifth grade. They're the reason why Gumi and I met for the first time last year. We saw each other in the halls, but we really didn't wasn't to talk to each other. No offense, but we were just... acquaintances to each other. Nothing more. Then, one day, Oliver came back from school with this huge grin on his face. He told mom and I about how he and Ryuto became friends that day. After a week or so, he asked if they could hang out at each other's house. Since both moms wanted to meet, we all planned and met each other at the mall.

I was slightly surprised to see Gumi there but later on we became best friends. We've been friends ever since.

Miki came to our school during the middle of the year so Gumi and I decided to talk to her and make her feel welcome. She turned out to be an awesome person so we invited to her to hang out with us. She introduced us to Teto a few days later, since they had classes together and she thought Teto was being anti-social. It was really just us four until the end of the year.

Next year (this year) Rin and Rui got in, Miku transferred in from a different school and as had some classes together, and we bumped into Haku in the halls. That's really how we all met.

"Ryuto's wondering if he and Oliver could hang out this weekend. My mom said it was ok if your mom's one with it." She told me as the others talked among themselves. I thought for a minute. We didn't have anything special planned this weekend and I didn't have much homework left so I guess it'd be fine. I nodded. "Sure, I'll ask her once I get home and call you back for the response." We agreed and finished up our lunch.

After the ball rang, we decided to meet back here to hang out during free period. I walked to my locker and, as I was putting away my lunch, I brought my iPod with me. It's the only time of the day where we're allowed access to our electronics. I have to tell you, it's awesome.

We hung out for a while, went to the rest of our classes and then headed home. Mom said it was alright for Oliver and Ryuto to hang out as long as he didn't cause trouble.

The weekend passed in a breeze and it was Monday. Oh so beautiful Monday. When I woke up I remembered about how we were getting new schedules and couldn't help but groan. I could probably sleep walk to all of my old classes since I knew them so well. Now, I have to remember a different schedule. I'm not being sarcastic when I say I wonder what my new classes will be. I really did want to know so I got ready for school a little big faster.

As dad was driving Oliver and I to school, I stared out the window at the scenery. My mind kept wandering, but it's okay for now since Oliver's getting dropped off first. I know I have to snap out of it sooner or later though.

A/N: Sorry for not updating last week. I was actually almost done with this but something came up and I couldn't finish it. I don't know why but I don't like updating during the weekdays. There's something about them that I don't like. I would've added more to this but tomorrow we're going to Poland and Czech Republic so I won't have access to a computer and today is the last day before next week comes. I love you guys enough to update on a weekday. Be happy. lol jk
Seriously though, be happy.
