Miku's POV:

The second I realize I'm awake, I jump up and run downstairs. "This happens every year." I hear Rin say to Aikae. "She gets all happy and jittery because of Christmas. It's kinda freaky." I frown and flick Rin on the forehead. I see Aikae laughing, too, so I thump her aswell.

I giggle as they both rub their foreheads, and poof into my Snow Miku 2014 outfit. I then see Luka and Len walk downstairs holding hands. I giggle again and run to Luka, tearing her from Len and spinning her around.

"Sis Luka! It's Christmas!!" I exclaim. I don't know why, but Christmas does this to me. She smiles and lets out a small laugh. I finally let go of her and she stumbles back a little.

"I hate to rain on your parade, but tomorrow's Christmas." a deep voice says. I turn towards the stairs, and see KAITO leaning against the wall. "It's still Christmas time," I say, putting my hands on my hips. He rolls his e yes playfully.

"Luka-San!!!!" I call. "I want breakfast." "A please or thank you would be nice," mumbles Luka as she walks towards the kitchen.

"Arigatou, Luka san," I give her a quick hug and sit next to Rin and Aikae on the couch. "So... does this always happen? It's kinda weird." Aikae says. "Hey," Big Al juts in. "Let the girl be in a good mood. You may never see it again." I smack his arm as he laughs and I turn to Aikae.

"So how do you like it here, Aikae? Did you find any foster homes or orphanages yet?" "Yeah. But they all are for 17 years and younger. And I love it here, Miku!" she replies.

"Wait, how old are you anyways?" Rin asks. "18." "Aikae, you're too old to be in a orphanage. You need to get a job to raise money for your own house." Big Al butts in again.

"I can get Haku to help you go job hunting. She has a new job every week." Luka says, leaning against the wall while licking a whisk with what looks like pancake batter on it. "But isn't your guys' jobs singing?" Aikae asks. "Yeah. But Haku thinks working is fun. Getting things done, and all that." Rin replies.

"Breakfast is ready!!" MEIKO calls, suddenly, and everyone runs to get some food.

"Oo, this is cute!" Rin says, running over to another shelf, occupied with clips of every kind. I made the mistake of taking Rin Christmas decortation shopping with me, and no matter where we go, she always wants something. From the Butcher's market to Busch Gardens, she always wants a souvenir.

"Rin come on, we'ere not buying presents yet. The longer we stay here, the more people are gonna stop us to take pictures. Let's go." She pouts at me and reluctantly catches up as we walk to the next store to buy tinsel.

I notice she's pouting again. "Hey, you should be grateful. You have 3 days to maybe get that entire shelf, for Pete's sake." Her face lifts a little at that.

The doors automatically open as we walk into Pier 1.

I start walking, just to stop again as I see the most horrific thing I wanted to see. Rin bumps into me and rubs her nose. "Dude! What the he- oh my god." she notices what I'm staring at. My parents.

I start shaking uncontrollably and stumble out of the store and bolt towards the exit of the mall. I hear Rin's shoes running behind me. I exit the store and find a curb to sit on.

I put my head in my hands and let the tears fall, while all the horrible memories come back.

-Flashback-

He comes towards me slowly, the burning hot fork in hand. I try to run away, but he's too fast for me. My father grabs my arm and presses the fork to it, and I scream as loud as my lungs and throat will allow. My sister and my brother stand in the doorway, Zatsune pointing and laughing, and my brother standing in horror and guilt. He couldn't do anything. The same thing will happen to him.

I'm not mad at him, as I would do the same thing if we switched places.

Tears glisten in my eyes and my father finally lets go. Me knees crumple beneath me, and I fall to the ground, staring up at the huge figure. He brings his foot back and forces it into my side, causing me to throw up this mornings breakfast. The one I worked so hard on.

He keeps kicking me, and I think I eventually black out.

-Flashback over-

Rin interrupts my thoughts, as she rubs my back. I continue to cry for who knows how long, until I finally stop. I look at her, and I'm sure my makeup is screwed up. She pulls me to her and wraps her arms around me. The embrace makes me feel better, until I see my parents exit the store.

I bury my face in her neck and try to be hidden. She takes my hand and pulls me up. "Do you want to go home? I can finish shopping for you." Rin offers, but I just wave it away. "No thanks. They're gone now." "Okay, but fix your make up." Rin laughs, and I do as she says, poofing into new makeup. She takes my hand again. "Let's go." Rin says, and we walk into the store together, more confident.
