Hey guys! Ok I've decided to be gender-bent Halloween Town Sora for AnimeNEXT 2014 (yes I am really mentioning this now in October) and going all out with having fangs and making his Keyblade too after Halloween ^.^ (PROOF THAT I HAVE NO LIFE) So yes 'tis all I have to say for now! :D
Disclaimer: I do not own Vocaloid
Introduction to the Public
Rin's POV
I cracked my eyes open when I heard a knock on my door and staggered toward it. I rubbed my sleepy eyes and was greeted immediately with a flash causing me to cry and fall back. "Good morning, Rin." Mr. Takahata said smiling as he poked his head around the corner as a photographer stood in the doorway, holding her camera and blinking at my surprised form on the floor. She had round brown eyes and light brown hair that fell to her shoulders. She had a red ivy cap and scarf which was draped around her shoulders which was covered with her long-sleeved green shirt which revealed a white cami top. She had dark tight jeans and light brown cowgirl boots that came up to the middle of her lower legs. "This is the photographer who will be getting your image out to the public." I cringed,
"I-i-image?" I cried and covered myself as I was wearing a white knee-length night-gown, "C-c-can I at least change?!" He chuckled,
"Of course, of course. Sorry to have brought this up without telling you."
"Yeah." I deadpanned, "Please do that in the future." I closed the door and changed into my sailor outfit. Once I was dressed and ready I met up with the photographer in the lounge. "Sorry about that." She smiled,
"Not at all, my name is Suzuki. Pleased to meet you." I nodded and returned the grin,
"Likewise, so what do I have to do?" She held up her camera,
"Sing the song Miku taught you recently: levan polka. I'll film you to advertise the new Vocaloid."
"But we're in the lounge. . . Isn't this an inappropriate setting to film an advertisement?"
"Don't worry 'bout that, Rinny~." I turned to see Miku waving finger at me with a smile. "Vocaloid High has almost any room you can imagine! Including a room specifically for filming ads!"
"Really?" I blinked, "Then please lead the way, Miss. Hatsune." She did so and soon the three of us were standing in a large room with green screens replacing the wallpaper. "Dang son!" Miku smiled at me,
"Well I'll leave ya to it. See you later~!" She walked out and Suzuki smiled,
"Alright, let's get to work. I'm going to break down what I'll be doing with you, ok?" I nodded. "Ok so I'm going to take some pictures of you so do whatever poses you like. Next I'll select scenery for you to sing and dance to levan polka then I want you do a performance of your soon-to-be-released song Dolls, so we can get people expecting a music video for that as well, and lastly I'll be getting Len in here for a photo of you two."
"Why Len?" I asked tilting my head and raising an eyebrow,
"Because you're the alleged Tragic Twins." I deadpanned her,
"And you say that cheerfully?"
"Oh, come on now, it's not so bad. It's a name to stick to ya know." She said wagging a finger and I rolled my eyes,
"Alright, let's get this started." I walked to the center of the room surrounded by the greenery where white screens soon fell to touch the floor. I struck multiple poses and she took multiple shots of me. Finally, that was done with and Suzuki walked to the computer and immediately became confused,
"Now what to choose as the setting." I walked over and saw the field Miku debuted in her version of this song. (A/N In Project diva of course in the version I'm depicting Rin is actually wearing clothes to cover her scrawny self lol)
"Ooh, Miku used this one for a music video." I pointed to the selection and tapped it as it was a touch screen and right away the scenery popped up around the room thanks to the projectors. "Wow." I said taken aback at the technology enhancement.
"Alright, stand in the middle of the floor for me, please, Rin." I did so and the music started playing. I started performing as Suzuki went around me with her camera. This went on for the whole two minutes of the song and I ended the pose when the song stopped and only moved from position when Suzuki straightened. "Great job, Rin!"
"Thanks." I said getting my breath and she tossed me a water bottle as I took a ten minute breather. When we had taken our break she clapped her hands,
"Alright, can you perform Dolls for me?" I nodded,
"Yep, I was so lucky enough to have Luka play her flute when we recorded this song." She smiled at my bright face,
"Well good, I'm glad that you're glad." I giggled and took my place, kneeling on the floor with my hands in my lap and head bowed. The song played and I commenced my emotional performance. The acting lessons I was taking at Vocaloid High were really helping me out: beforehand I was always so stiff when it came to acting sadly but now I was able to really persuade the audience with my body language and facial expression of how sad I was feeling, as well as portraying other emotions. As I sang the last two lines I extended my arms towards the camera and smiled brightly. There was another wrap. Suzuki was actually wiping tears during our second break.
"Was it really that emotional?" I asked with a smile as I raised an eyebrow and she nodded,
"Yes! The lyrics! The emotion you put into your song and performance! Oh my gosh I can't wait for the music video for this!" I smiled,
"Well thank you very much, Suzuki~."
"What's next on our agenda?"
"Lastly, we have to get Len Kagamine in here."
"Already here." We both jumped and a second later Len walked in. "Hey, girls. Mr. Takahata told me what I had to do so here I am." I smiled,
"Well you're here just in time! I just finished my ad for Dolls."
"Awesome! Mr. Takahata was saying how we were going to produce that music video within the week." I squealed,
"Ugh pinch me I must be dreaming! Ow!" I cried when I was pinched, "What was that for!"
"You said to pinch you." Len smirked and I puffed my cheeks out,
"I meant it rhetorically, Len!" We heard a snap and turned our heads to see Suzuki taking a picture of us bickering. "W-what was that for, Suzuki?" She giggled,
"I thought it'd be appropriate to add that in. You'll see why when I have this all pulled together~. Now stand in the middle of the floor, you two. Back to back."
"Why that way?" We asked in unison as we raised an eyebrow in puzzlement.
"Would ya just do it? Rin stand on my left, Len to my right. There we go, smile at each other but face the camera. Alright, smile!" Snap. We did a few more poses: some of cute ones with me on Len's back as we smiled and others of us sitting next to each other, one of our hands on top of the other's as we smiled and so on and so forth. "Yay!" Suzuki finally said after what felt like hours. "Thanks a lot you two! I'll show you the ad when it's all pulled together." I nodded,
"Ok, thanks a lot, Suzuki. You've been a big help." She waved her wrist dismissively at me,
"Nah, think nothing of it. I'll contact you within a few days. Have a good one you two!" Len and I waved goodbye as she walked out the door. The two of us commenced our little bicker about the pinching scenario and we went on with our day.
Two days passed and still no word from Suzuki, I was beginning to worry. Then, as I was reading in my room my phone vibrated and I read the text from my photographer: 'Let me in, I've got to show you the finished product! :D' I hurried to the door and greeted her and we hurried to the screening room, as we ran, the others added onto our group. 'Twas quite an interesting sight to behold. We all gathered around Suzuki as she played the video which would spark my publicity. Suzuki narrated the whole video. It started off with a slideshow of previous videos of the Vocaloids from concerts and casual days of hanging out, laughing. Then Suzuki's narrating words moved across the screen in big letters: "And now, Vocaloid has taken on yet another tremendously talented soul." A picture of me popped up and my friends around me cheered. "Rin Kagamine." Suzuki's voice continued to narrate as clips of me singing and dancing to levan polka and Dolls came up in sporadic order. "She's the brightest light I've seen so far in my time photographic young artists and I have rocketing hopes for this little firecracker. She's a musical angel and her original song, Dolls, truly brought tears to my eyes." The final clip of me signing the last lines of the song came up allowing my voice to be heard to the audience without Suzuki's voice.
Next one of the many pictures of Lena and I came up and Suzuki commenced her narration. "And what's this? Oh my, ladies and gents I do believe we have a young couple transpiring! Len Kagamine, who was previously the youngest out of our favorite Vocaloids, has now taken little Rin under his wing in being someone to truly depend upon! The two are now a true Dynamic Duo or better known as, The Tragedy Twins!" The photo of Len and I bickering came up, "Though they bicker," next a picture of the two of us sitting next to each other, him looking up smiling as I closed my eyes with a smile while I rested my head on his shoulder and hand my hand under his while we sat under the shade of a tree produced by the projectors. "The two have a deep care for each other and I have a feeling if one were to be threatened by death, the other would, without hesitation, take the other's place (A/N Story of Evil! XD)." A picture of me appeared. I was holding a microphone with one hand and extended the other outward as I pretended to sing my heart out, lastly played the super short clip Suzuki had recorded amongst our photo shoots:
"Hello! My name's Rin Kagamine and I truly look forward to making music for my audience. Thank you everyone and I'm so glad to be a part of Vocaloid!" I cried as I extended by arms and the camera zoomed out to aim back at the light which soon overwhelmed the lens. A picture of me smiling and waving appeared.
"Rin Kagamine." Suzuki 's voice came up once more, "A true rising star to watch out for."
The video ended and everyone cheered as they hugged me and Suzuki. "Oh my gosh that was amazing!" Luka cried
"Thank you." I replied modestly, "But it was Suzuki who did all the heavy lifting."
"Oh please I couldn't have done it without you, Rin." She stood and stretched out her hand, "I look forward to your future performances." I shook it and beamed back,
"Thank you so much, Suzuki." Everyone cheered for my success and I couldn't wait until my existence was introduced to the public. I didn't care if Father or Mami saw me. I really didn't. All that mattered to me was living my dream while I still could. And I would spend all of that time smiling forever more.
Ooh I had so much fun writing this! Just imagining and describing everything in my mind! X3 Please review and VOTE ON MY POLL! Have a great night, guys! Daisuki! –heart-
