3rd person Kaito POV
“Is it really true?” An ecstatic Kyle asked his wife Esmeralda.
“Yes I am pregnant you’re going to be a father” She said with a smile, Esmeralda had been trying to get pregnant for years now. The entire time he and her had been married, which was since graduation from high school, adding the years up that had been when they were around 18 or 19 they were 21 now.
“In so happy Esmeralda.” Kyle said to her. She just smiled knowingly, kissing his cheek.
“You better get off to work we don’t want this baby to grow up a dumbass do we?” she said, “we need to start saving for his tuition so he doesn’t end up like you.” She added, Kyle laughed for this was an old joke between the two. Then turned and walked off to his job, which consisted of sitting behind a desk and doing paperwork. Overall it was boring as hell. He sighed. ‘Just another day at work, nothing different’ he repeated in his head. Something felt off, as if he was being followed. He often had this feeling when he was in high school. He increased his pace. His feet moving swiftly across the street. He just couldn’t shake the feeling of being followed; trying to be discrete he glanced behind him only to see no one. He sighed yet again. ‘Stop being paranoid Kyle, Jae’s dead he can’t hurt you now calm down.’ He tried to convince himself to no avail. He blinked, and realized that he didn’t know where he was anymore nothing looked familiar. He was in a back ally; it was dark and had this metallic/musty smell to it. Turning on the balls of his feet he came face to face with a masked cloaked figure. Who grabbed him by the shoulder; Kyle being a fighter in his age quickly grabbed the man’s hand and twisted bringing it around him. But the man saw this coming and slammed a fist into Kyle’s mid-section, causing him to double over in pain. The unknown man kneaded him in the face. Causing black spots to coat Kyle’s vision, suddenly everything went black and the last words he heard were.
“Tsk Tsk Kaito that isn’t how a Star should ask.” The mocking voice said.
Kaito woke from his startling dream. Was that real? It had to be, Kaito was sure of it. But if it really were real how come he just now remembered. Miku would know something. He always told her about his dreams. He sighed and forced himself up out of bed. And shivered when the cold night air hit his bare chest. Too tired to put on a shirt he opened the door with a soft click. He padded barefoot down the hall until he reached Mikus room, Knocking softly he waited for her to open the door. The door slide opens to reveal a Disheveled Miku. Her hair was down spread around her and she was dressed in shorts and a t-shirt with the picture of a leek on it.
“What’s wrong Ky- I mean Kaito?” she asked softly.
“I I had a nightmare it felt soo real can I sleep in here tonight?” he asked his face turning a bright pink as he said this. She smiled lightly and nodded giving him a look that clearly said ‘Do you wanna talk about it?’ he smiled. He could always read her expressions. Suddenly the image of the woman from his dream appeared in his head, he shook it off. And followed Miku to sit on the edge of her bed. He then recapped His dream beginning to end. Her face began to look more and more distressed as he went farther and farther into his dream description.
“Shit even he’s remembering damn damn damn” she cursed under her breath.
“what?” he asked
“Nothing lets go to sleep now you look like you’re going to keel over at any second.” Miku commented. He nodded and hugged her close. Wrapping his arms around her middle and nuzzling his face into her neck, he found it easy to relax. And slowly he faded into sleep.
Mikus POV
I’ve done bad things in life. You name it, Murder? wasn’t fun, Armed Robbery? almost got shot, Assault and Battery?, Bitch put up a hell of a fight, Kidnapping?, let’s just say that not doing that again. See? This is what I mean. Add lying to a boy about his life. Check. Ugh I feel like shit. My head pounded and I remembered when I committed my first murder. I was 7 at the time and it was to help Aijou. We had been seven and his parents were abusive and I had gone to his house and his dad and came home drunk, and threw him into a second story window causing him to crash threw the glass, which made me angry so I suspended time, yes I CAN do that. Why do you think that the Vocaloids were chosen so carefully? Each of us had a power and we were taken so that we couldn’t use it, most don’t even know that they have them. Okay back to the story, I had suspended time with that I took the stairs two at a time and made it to the bottom of the stairs and stretched out my arms and started time again. Catching Aijou and making sure he was alive; I walked back inside, blood boiling. I grabbed a knife from the kitchen on my way up the stairs. Upon seeing Aijou father I plunged the knife into his knee causing him to howl in pain. “you little bitch” he had wheezed and I kept stabbing him. Over and over, over and over, and over and over. Blood coated me from head to toe, but I continued to stab him repeatedly until Aijou wrapped his thin arms around me from behind telling me to stop. After that we fled and moved away to hide.
See Life isn’t a bundle of sweet lilies…..
