((OOC: Thread restricted to myself, Mugen, and Tsifan at the moment. Request if you want in on this, though I'll have to ask that you're fairly active.  )) After some explanations, Megurine Luka had managed to convince Miku's manager (and by extension, the whole Vocaloid family's manager) to drive them all to Bonsai Village. The car they were driving in was a fairly unremarkable white van, not unlike that plumbers and the such rode in. No need to make a showy appearance when the concert wasn't for another week. As it was, the manager was sitting in the passenger's seat, while a bodyguard of sorts drove the van. The back of the van was set up so that two rows of seats faced each other. The seats weren't very comfortable, but it was enough to fit all six Vocaloids. Kaito had woken up a while ago, and he hadn't spoken since, instead opting to stare out the window most of the ride. Miku was sitting on the other side of the van, next to Luka, who still looked rather concerned for Gakupo. The group was almost to Bonsai Village now. Once they got there, they needed to take Gakupo to the doctor there. There had to be something they could do for him. Luka was also rather concerned for Miku. Ever since the mall incident, she had hardly spoken, and always looked like she was going to be sick, or start crying again. Any attempts to start a conversation had been met with silence. |

Gakupo had tried to sit as apart from the group during the trip as he could, putting him closest to the back door with Rin and Len sitting next to each other. But the heat was radiating off him, and he was trying to avoid looking anyone in the eyes. Especially Luka and Kaito. Luka, because he knew how much she was worrying. Kaito, because he had realized in his ill fuzziness that he was going to have to reassess his opinion of the blue haired Vocaloid. And he wasn't sure he was liking what his mind was coming up with. Even if you managed to push the snap aside, there had seemed to be real feeling towards Zero, which meant he could suffer the same illness Gakupo currently had.
And speaking of that illness, the van was about half a mile from Bonsai Village when Gakupo suddenly fell limp, the bumpiness of the ride causing him to fall in the lap of the person next to him.
(OOC: He's just unconcsious from the illness. However, I left it open as to whether he feel in Rin or Len's lap. Try to gauge based on how they would've sat, not on potential awkwardness alone. Also, he's emanating heat so whoever's lap he landed in would feel this.)

Rin and Len hadn't really spoken much, though there was the occasional *beep* from Rin's phone. The two calmed down a bit still slightly worried for the others and Len was leaning over looking at the phone. *beep* a famliliar picture appeared on the screen of Rin's phone when she was browsng 'Pictures'. It was the scene where Kaito and Len were in the awkward position. "Hey! Rin! Delete that picture now!" Len said loudly in a annoyed tone as he reached to grab Rin's phone. "Heh, not in a million years~" Rin replied with a small giggle as she used her hand to press against Len's face and moved the cellphone away as far as she could, which was in front of Miku's face. Gakupo meanwhile fell onto Rin's lap, she didn't feel very comfortable but knew the situation and didn't really mind as she continued to keep her phone away from Len.

Luka jumped when Gakupo collapsed. That's not good... She turned to the opening that connected the front and the back of the van. "Hey, speed it up! Kamui-san's gone unconcious back here!"
"GODDAMMIT WOMAN DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH GAS COSTS THESE DAYS?! BESIDES WE STILL HAVE TRAFFIC LAWS TO FOLLOW, DAMMIT!" Miku's manager yelled from the front seat.
"They excuse it if it's a genuine emergency! And do you want to lose half your fanbase?!" Luka yelled. "Because if Gakupo back here dies, that's what will happen!"
Miku was fairly out of it. She didn't even notice the picture at all. Neither did Luka, who was arguing with the manager up front.
Kaito was busy staring out the window. So, he'd snapped in front of everyone. He had a feeling his bumbling "Bakaito" act wasn't going to work anymore. Well, not on the other Vocaloids anyways.
"...Master..." Kaito said to himself

Len and Rin stopped when the commotion started. Rin, while Len was distracted, hid her phone and lifted Gakupo up a bit so that he wouldn't be on her lap.

Despite Luka's protests, the van continued moving at the speed it had been, and hadn't sped up at all. After the manager threatened to toss her outside this van "RIGHT NOW" and make her walk to Bonsai Village, Luka had shut up. Every now and again, she'd glance back at Gakupo.
They were nearly to the village as it was, and it was clear they were going towards the hospital instead of the inn. Well, at least they were doing that.

They shortly arrived at Bonsai Village, and when they stopped at the hospitable Len opened the van door immediatly while Rin sorta pulled Gakupo out. Len got Gakupo's LEg's While Rin Gakupo's head area though the others came to help them.

Luka sighed, and took Gakupo herself. "Children, don't carry Kamui-san like that. You'll just make him worse." She turned to Kaito. "Kaito-san, carry Kamui-san, please."
"Huh? Oh... right," Kaito said, and walked over to Rin and Len to take Gakupo from them. He didn't think Luka trusted him enough with Gakupo, but it appeared so.
Luka looked over at Miku, who was still in the van. "Are you coming, Miku-chan?" Miku didn't answer. "You can't stay in there forever, Miku-chan."

(OOC: I'll jump back into posting now, with a bit of a time hop into the hospital)
Two staff members came out of the hospital with a stretcher in tow. Miku's manager hung up his cellphone as they reached him and he got into a rather "I'm in charge" mode as he ordered them to take Gakupo inside. One of the EMTs seemed startled by Gakupo's appearance, but the other helped get the Vocaloid onto the stretcher, eliminating the need for Kaito and probably not making said blue haired Vocaloid feel any better. He barked some orders at the startled one before running inside, leaving said startled EMT to give an explanation.
"He's got an extrodinary fever and we'll do what we can, but we're more used to fully organic people here. Not," he glanced at Luka, she seemed fairly scary, "Not... uh... partially so. I mean, not ones formed by data... Uh, you can go in and wait if you like..."
He hoped the last comment would placate Luka enough that he wouldn't be feeling pain. The whole situation had shown that the manager had been doing more than arguing with Luka. He had apparently called ahead. But nothing had been directly said about Gakupo's prognosis, and what little had been implied wasn't good. Fact was, the full hospital wasn't used to data formed sentients. Let alone the makeshift one. The EMT nervously gestured towards the building, hoping the fact that they couldn't be with Gakupo wouldn't cause violence.

Luka pulled something out of her jacket's pocket and showed it to the EMT. It was Kaito's knife, which she had confiscated from him after the mall incident. She then held up her arm, took the knife and cut into her arm with it, very lightly.
"I still bleed. I may be made of data but I still bleed. And if I can bleed, I can get sick too. So get to work. And don't tell me anything else about 'him being made of data so we can't do squat'," Luka said. Her face was cold and emotionless.
Kaito was at a loss of words at all of this. This all had been his fault.
He didn't even know why he'd gone yandere on his friends that time. He didn't even want to know, out of fear of the truth.
So, Kaito went over to the van to coax Miku out.
"Miku...?" he asked. She didn't look at him.

Len saw Kaito walking over to the van where Miku was, he knew the knife had been taken but how Kaito was still varied so he said, "Rin stay with the group. I'm going to watch what Kaito is doing." to Rin as hid behind the Hosptial wall and silently watched the two as Rin ncontinued to follow the group.

The EMT paled and nodded quickly, "Right! But please don't cut yourself ma'am!" he suddenly whipped out a bandage and showed signs of wanting to wrap up Luka's self-inflicted injury.
Gakupo had been moved to what the hospital was using as an ITU with their limited resources. They had found a pulse, but it seemed sporadic. The temperature was past dangerous levels at this point, and if it continued it was possible Gakupo could cook himself. Rin and Len, having followed the stretcher into the hospital, could see there seemed to be a fair amount of panic. If they knew enough about hospitals to understand a Code Blue, they'd know something was pretty dire.
And with Gakupo's condition upon entry, it wouldn't take much to realize what was pretty dire...
From even outside, shouting could be heard. It wasn't like the huts were designed to be soundproof, after all.
(OOC: And I'll say again, he won't die. XD)

Luka sighed and held her arm out for the EMT to bandage it up. Once it was bandaged, she headed on inside the hut to see what all of the commotion was.
Kaito climbed back on inside the van and sat across from Miku. "Miku, I..."
"Shut up."
"Miku..."
"Don't talk to me, you bastard."

Rin continued to follow the group, as Len watched and listened to Miku saying those words to Kaito. He continued to watch, though wanting to do something about it.
