A/N: I have Piko getting his foot casted in this. Apparently a 'leg sleeve' could also be called a 'stockinet' or something along those lines.

The Shota Dimension

Chapter 6

*recommends ½ view*

Len helped Piko into the mansion as they reached the large building, the doors having been unlocked by Momiji earlier when he had passed by. He led Piko down a large hallway until he caught sight of a white door with a medical red cross on it. "I guess this room would have bandages in it…," Len spoke to himself, looking over to Piko.

The other Vocaloid nodded. "Yeah… Um, Len?" Piko asked, shifting his foot as Len opened the door in towards the room.

"What?" Len asked Piko, still a bit unsure about Piko, as you could tell by the wavering flame above his blond head.

"Why do you hate me?" Piko asked softly, hopping over to the bed-seat in the middle of the room with Len's help.

Len tensed a bit at the question, leaving the Vocaloid to look through the cabinets around the room, thinking about what he might say. "Well… It's not quite hate. You're just too clingy. And when I saw you about to kill KAITO just because he kissed my cheek when I gave him advice about Meiko I realized that you were too much for me," Len said, slamming one of the cabinets closed as he thought about it.

The cabinet opened again though and he softly pushed it closed with his foot, as he had already stood up. Piko had shivered a bit at Len's show of anger, but sighed afterwards. "Well you sure are acting like it…," he mumbled.

Len strained not to comment as he found some instructions on how to make a cast.

He blinked as he found the illustrated pamphlet and looked over to Piko's foot, amazed that Piko was barely showing any pain from the new wound. "You're just too clingy, okay? Now, do you think it's broken?"

Piko winced as he looked down at his foot, blood dripping from the wound on his ankle, nodding at Len's question. Len found a leg sleeve for the base layer of the cast after he saw Piko's nod. He got up and put it next to the silver-haired Vocaloid before getting a bucket that he had seen in one of the cabinets and put it in the rather large sink that came off from the wall, filling it up with cold water as he grabbed a rag to clean Piko's foot with. He moved the bucket carefully next to Piko's foot on the floor and dunked the rag into it. "This might feel a bit cold or hurt or something…" Len said, draping the rag over Piko's foot, making Piko shiver from his pain numbing a bit in the cold water.

Len carefully rubbed Piko's foot of some of the blood before twisting it over the bucket, dunking it again and a few more washes later Len had cleaned the Piko's wound and foot. "There," he said, standing up and picking up the filled bucket, wobbling a bit under its weight like last time, but getting it into the sink and draining it before cleaning it the best he could with hot water, figuring that would be enough for sterilization as he put it back in the cabinet along with the rag on its shelf after drying it and cleaning it of the blood as well.

He then moved to put the leg sleeve on Piko, making sure he cut the sleeve down to size, since he obviously wasn't going to cast the entire leg, so that it only covered up to right above his ankle and half his foot. He then moved to get the pamphlet from earlier again. "Okay. Now where's some padding…" he asked aloud as he moved through the cabinets.

Piko sighed. "Could you just get all the items out at once please? It's quite annoying to have to wait so long," he mumbled.

Len glared at Piko, but did as he said and pulled out the rest of the items that the pamphlet said he needed, moving them towards Piko's feet area as he got a stool to sit in front of him and carefully wrapped padding around Piko's foot after making sure his foot was in the 'neutral position', a 90˚ angle. After he had finished that he got out the actual casting tape and got up to wet the tape, sighing at the fact that he had put up the bucket, and wrapped it slowly around Piko's foot before wetting it again to keep it down, getting another roll and doing the same thing before making sure the edges weren't coming out or anything. "Does that feel comfortable, not too numb or anything?" Len asked Piko, standing up.

Piko tried to move it, but he couldn't. "Well you certainly did it tight enough. Can you help me down?" he asked.

Len nodded and helped Piko down, telling him to lean against the table a bit as he went into a big closet-like thing in the room, finding some different equipment in there, like a crutch. "Wow. This place really has everything…" he said, bringing the crutch over to Piko and handing it to him.

"I guess we can go explore more now…" he said, leaving the room.

Piko was left alone to get the hang of his crutch, but soon followed after Len. Len saw Latvia snoring on the couch and ran to him, hugging him and shaking him after the initial hug. "Latvia! Wake up!' he shouted at the tired nation.

Said tired nation wearily blinked his eyes open. "Huh? Len? Piko didn't kill you…?" Raivis mumbled, sitting up as the blond Vocaloid moved away from him.

"Well I got him to promise to not be so obsessed about me anymore, so, no," he said, looking over as he saw Piko enter.

Just then he smelled the distinct smell of sauerkraut, as did the other two. Raivis got up with Len and the three went into the kitchen, seeing Momiji on a stool in front of the oven and making some sauerkraut. Meanwhile I was at the table, eating the meat that came along with the fermented cabbage dish. I looked over, smiling. "Hey guys! Come on in! Momiji's a great cook!" I said before shoveling more of the German dish into my mouth.

Len gulped, looking over at Raivis, raising an eyebrow as if to ask, 'Is that really a good idea?' Raivis saw Len's look and nodded, going to the table and sitting down in one of the six chairs at the rectangular dark wood table (A/N: Have I mentioned I'm selectively descriptive yet?). Len shrugged and joined Raivis at the table, but Piko just stood there. "Umm… How good does that taste?" he asked me.

I looked over at him. "Huh? It tastes great!" I said, standing up and Momiji looked over at Piko.

"Yeah. It's really good!" he said, pouring a bowl for and putting a fork in it, stabbing a piece of cabbage and walking over to Piko, "Here, try it," he said, putting the piece to Piko's lips.

The zodiac's actions made Piko blush, but he did as Momiji said, taking the cabbage leaf into his mouth and chewing it, smiling after a while and nodding. "It… It tastes good…" he said, smiling after a while.

Momiji smiled back and nodded. "Told ya!" he said, setting down the bowl in front of an empty chair on the table and helping Piko sit down on it, taking the crutch and leaning it on the table next to him.

Len raised an eyebrow at Piko's actions. His old, clingy boyfriend couldn't be falling for that blond clutz, could he? Or, wait… What if Piko just had a thing for blonds or something…?

I glared over at Len as I heard his thoughts, speaking to him in his head and saying, "Don't think such a thing of Piko! Just because he was like that for you, doesn't mean that he would do it to someone else! Besides, I think the fact that Momiji's carefree, unlike you, might be a reason why he likes him. He was just trying to protect your relationship or something like that! Also, carefree people are kind of good at accidentally seducing stiff, strict people…" I sighed aloud at the last part, thinking of APH Germany and Italy.

Len looked over at me, clearly shocked as he heard the speech with my voice in his head, but didn't say anything about as he looked over at Piko, who seemed to be acting a bit flustered as Momiji talked to him about stuff while getting Len and Raivis a bowl of sauerkraut and tender meat. Len thanked Momiji as he handed him a bowl, as did Raivis. I finally finished my bowl and wiped my mouth. "So. When are you and Raivis gonna do it?" I smiled, looking over Len.

"Wh-what are yo-?" Len spluttered for a while, accidentally dropping his fork in his lap.

I facepalmed. "Geez Len. Stop getting yourself all messy," I said, picking up the fork and putting it back in the bowl with my telekinesis.

Raivis also jumped at the question, but when he saw his secret love get his pants messy he got out his chair to go get the wet rag from the sink, wringing it out so that it wasn't so dripping wet. "L-Let me help…" he said, moving to rub the cabbage juice that had flung onto Len's pants and shirt.

Len blushed and pushed Raivis away, still holding his shoulders. "Th-that's okay. Crazy Imaginer lady could probably clean it with her powers. Isn't that right?" Len said, accenting his last words with slow turns of the head towards me.

I squeaked and nodded. "Y-yeah, but wouldn't it just be better for you two to go take a shower and change into new clothes? I set up separate rooms for all of you here. A-and they're even exact replicas of your rooms in your own homes, including your wardrobe and everything," I said, hoping that didn't sound too creepy as Len raised an eyebrow and turned back to Raivis, who's shoulders he had been squeezing earlier when he had slowly turned his head towards me.

"Oh really! Yay! I can finally clean myself off from the cave!" Momiji smiled, getting out of his seat and making sure all the burners on the stove were off before running off to find his room.

"It's the one with your bunny form on it!" I shouted after him as he left.

Suddenly a crash was heard and I winced. "Oops. I forgot about that," I said, remembering what I had done to Momiji in the cave.

"I'll go help him," I said quickly, leaving the room to go to Momiji's rescue, pick him up, and lead him to his room.

"So…" Piko said, looking to Len and Raivis.

Raivis shivered, still not sure of the silver-haired Vocaloid's calmness as he leaned onto Len a bit. "I hope you're happy together," he said, pushing out his chair a bit and turning to the side. He picked up his crutch and angled it so that when he stood up the rest on the bottom of it would be flat on the floor, leaning on it after he did so and hobbled around to face the couple.

"W-well. I still love you Len and I thank you for putting on my cast. Those must've been pretty detailed instructions…" Piko said, trailing off.

Len shrugged. "Not really, there just wasn't much to do with putting on a cast or something I guess," he said, already quite calm about the idea of Piko not obsessing about him.

Raivis looked over to Len. "Y-you put on that c-cast?" he asked his 'crush', amazed that he could do such a feat.

Len shrugged. "Well I found a pamphlet with instructions on how to put one on and I followed them. Like I said, easy," he said, not really thinking of himself as a doctor or anything.

"Oh…" Raivis said, looking down.

"I-I'll go now…" Piko said, hobbling out on his crutch.

Len looked over at Len, feeling a laugh come on at the sight of Piko's 'walking'. Raivis pouted as he saw Len looking after Piko with a smile playing on his lips and he quickly wrapped his arms around the closest of the Vocaloid's arms. "Don't fall in love with Piko again! I-Es mīlu tevi!" Raivis shouted out, his eyes closing and his cheeks dusting pink because of the embarrassment of the confession.

Len blinked. "U-Uh Raivis? I may have multiple languages, but I don't know Latvian at all…" Len said, supposing that that was the language that Raivis had used, and it was.

Raivis opened his his slowly, realizing his mistake as he moved away from Len a little bit, his arms still loosely around Len's arm. "U-Ummm. I-I s-said I love y-you," he said, his blush becoming a brighter shade of red as he looked away from the blond Vocaloid.

Len smirked a tad bit as he heard the Latvian's confession and leaned up to kiss Raivis' turned cheek. "Well then we're even, because I love you as well," he said.

Meanwhile I put Momiji on the counter, changing him back with sparkles. "Okay. I fixed it again. Now all you have to do to change back is concentrate on your form and imagine yourself turning into it. Hopefully no weird henshin scene will happen if you do that," I said, sighing as I walked out of the bathroom and left Momiji alone to take a long, hot shower.

I met Piko outside. "Oh. Hey Piko. Your door icon is your USB tail, so it's right next to-," Unfortunately I was cut off as Piko kicked me in the shin and as I fell he grabbed my throat, choking me as he slammed me against Momiji's closed door.

"I'm not fucking in love with that idiot Momiji. I only faked that so you idiots would leave me alone while I found the fucking portal in the basement. Now either you hand Len over to me and do your shitty magic on him to make him love me for real this time, or I'll blow up this pathetic excuse for a childhood nostalgia house," Piko spat at me, slamming me against the wall every time he emphasized a word.

Meanwhile, Estonia had finished dinner with Lithuania and Poland, having to leave the table early because Poland jumped on Lithuania complaining about his 'needs'. Yeah. Estonia didn't want to see the long-haired male get raped by Poland.

As he opened his lap top he saw his cursor hovering over the story he was about to click earlier. He shrugged, clicking the story and freezing as his eyes read the fifth 'paragraph'. "Could that be where Latvia is then?" he asked himself out loud, quickly reading through the rest of the story and reading it all improperly, having some weird sort of idea that The Imaginer was keeping them their for her own twisted reasons and that Piko was her evil sidekick.

He quickly read the profile of the authoress again, shuddering as he saw that a sixth chapter was coming soon. He had seen his cameos in the stories and wondered what they meant as he looked out at the moon that had risen while he had been reading. "I must stop her…" he said, wanting to protect his 'little brother' the best he could as he quickly rigged up a teleportation system…

Raivis smiled as Len said he loved him as well and hugged him, softly kissing the Vocaloid. Len smiled into the kiss a bit before hugging Raivis back. He deepened the kiss, eventually his tongue rubbing against the Latvian's lower lip, asking for entrance. Raivis shivered at the action though and pulled away. "W-we shouldn't… Sh-she might be watching…" he said, looking around for any hidden cameras.

Len sighed at Raivis' reaction, but nodded, agreeing with him. "Yeah. I don't like the idea of The Imaginer masturbating to us making out…" he said, shivering at the thought of me watching them, not the kissing part.

Raivis nodded. "U-um… I guess we could check out our rooms now…?" he said softly, getting out of Len's lap.

The Vocaloid nodded. "Sure. So let's see… Yours would probably be your flag, but what would my door icon be…?" he thought aloud as he stood up and walked upstairs with Raivis, who was holding the hand that wasn't held to his chin in thought.

A/N: Cliffhanger! Also, Momiji's room is around the corner from the hallway directly at the top of the stairs. Anyways, introducing… DOOR ICONS! Each door has it's own icon to show it's contents and who it's owner is!

Also: LVL UP! Len leveled up to Doctor Level 1! He can now make casts!

Yeah. I used a video to reference how to make a cast. He probably should've let the wound heal first though, since he didn't put any bandages around it for that at all. Also: I may or may not have forgotten about Piko's crutch in the choking scene! Serioously, that bitch got me angry there. I kept squealing loudly and angrily.
