Chapter 1

It is alive! Forget it, I am back everyone, it...has been some time since my other story, but it is here, something I promised, the squeal to my original SAO story, but for now let's get this story started, now first I do not own Sword Art Online, but i do own the story idea, and my Oc's and with that said and done, let's start the first chapter, enjoy!

"Hmm...?" A voice hummed that belongs to a boy while looking at a nearby window, this boy has a small tan, black hair that had his bangs covering a little of his left eye, but the tips were dark red, the boy wore blue jeans, a black shirt, black finger-less gloves, and on his neck was a golden necklace, and locket, making a girl that was next to him look at him in concern.

"Are you ok Ray?" The girl asked the boy now known as Ray, who looked at her for a second, to see that she has silver like hair, honey gold eyes, as she was wearing black leggings, a jean made skirt, and a black top, but when he saw the look on her face, he gave her a small smile.

"Yea, it is just, I thought something bad happened, but it must be my imagination Nijiki." Ray replied with a awkward smile to the girl now known as Nijiki, which made her nod her head a bit, before looking at the tv that was in Ray's room, but she looked at Ray a few times before fully looking at the tv again, but Ray just thought about what happened around lunch.

*Flashback*

"Hmm? I wounder what movie I should pick for when Nijiki comes." Ray muttered to himself, until he heard his phone rang, making him confused, but he froze when he saw the name Kazuto on his phone.

"Ray! Me and Nagata are going to the mall, so see you at dinner." A voice he knew was his sister Sugu, but Ray did not replied, as he answered his phone, and heard two people talking, one was his brother Kazuto, and the other was Seijirou.

"Someone died? That should be impossible, the atmoshere is not like the nerve gear." Kazuto told Seijirou, and after hearing that Ray froze in place.

"Yes that is true, but someone has found a way to do it, and killed someone in a game named Gun Gale Online, or GGO." Seijirou replied in a calm tone, which made Ray twitch at hearing that tone.

"Alright, that is some info I guess, but what do you want with me, you want me to help you to come up with some ideas?" Kazuto asked, making Seijirou sigh.

"No, I need you to go into GGO, go investigate what is going on, and we can get the guy responsible, do this and me and my group will pay you, please!" Seijirou exclaimed in a desperate tone, causing Ray to sweatdrop.

"Umm...ok, but why should I, I already done enough, what could I do?" Kazuto replied with a sigh, but that made Ray nervous when he did not hear Seijirou say anything at all.

"Then you will allow a lot of people to die, cause if this person, this person that calls himself 'Death Gun' goes into other games, and does the same thing as in GGO then it is all over." Seijirou told Kazuto, making the brother's eyes widen when they thought about it like that.

"...Fine, where do I go?" Kazuto asked Seijirou, causing Ray to almost drop his phone when he heard what Kazuto said.

'You can't be serous, there is no way I can let him do this...there has to be something I can do...' Ray thought with a serious look on his face, but as he heard the location Kazuto was going, and how he told Seijirou to not tell him about what was going on, making Ray a bit pissed off after hearing that.

*Flashback end*

'Weird thing is that was literally the tenth time this week that he butt dialed me.' Ray thought with a smile, till he noticed that Rain fell asleep on his shoulder, making him smile, and went back into his thoughts.

*A few minutes later*

"I'm ho-" A woman that looks like an older Sugu, this is Midori, who saw Ray on the couch in the living room then grinned, before she went to get her camera and took a picture before leaving, but unknown to her Ray was awake, and looked at something that he saw in the corner of his eye, but he soon felt Nijiki wake up, and groaned after being woken up, till she looked at a clock and gasped, confusing Ray till he looked at the time and saw that it was almost midnight.

"Shit...your parents are going to kill me after this." Ray muttered, making Nijiki glare at him, causing him to flinch at her stare.

"Really?! They could do a bunch of things to stop us from seeing each other and you want to joke." Nijiki hissed, which made Ray look at her with wide eyes, but soon she looked at the ground with a sad look on her face.

"I'm not joking...it is just...your mom does not care, she literally wants you to stay with me, she understands why you are late home, your dad...is the opposite, and it makes me angry that he will do anything to stop us from seeing each other, I mean I know why your mom is doing what she is doing, she is scared that your dad might do." Ray told her, making Nijiki lean into his chest and sighed.

"That is true, even after learning so much about you he still hates your guts." Nijiki claimed with a frown, but Ray just kissed her cheek, before giving her a black leather jacket that was personally made for her, since there was a symbol of her sword that she used in SAO, while Ray grabbed his own leather jacket and grabbed his keys, and two helmets, before looking at her.

"Well, if we are fast then we might make it to your home before they notice." Ray told Nijiki, who gave him a small grin, and a kiss on the cheek.

"I love you Ray." Nijiki said with a small smile, which Ray returned with his own smile.

"I love you too, Nijiki." Ray replied, before the two left the house.

*A hour later*

"Well I'm not doing that again..." Ray muttered, as he remember what happened at Nijiki's house, which was being teased by both her sister and mother, and just thinking about it made him blush, but once he saw his phone, he went and grabbed it, looking for one person he wanted to call and did just that.

"Hey Frank...yea, I am going to need your help with something...let's just say that that your the only person I can count on in this situation, so are you in...yea I will give you the details, we just need to get ready that is it." Ray spoke to Frank, as he looked on the counter of his computer desk to see a game, the game was none other than GGO itself, making him remember when he got it.

*Flashback*

"*Sigh* I hate this, stupid press, and news, because of them I can't see Nijiki...crap I'm becoming like Kazuto, since him and Asuna are so close that they need to at least hear each other at least once a day, eh to hell with it I rather do that then to be waiting till everything calms down to hear from her." Ray muttered, till someone knocked on his door, making him confused.

"Hey Ray, here is a package, a friend of yours gave me." Midori told Ray, who looked at her with a raised eyebrow, as she came into his room, handed him the package and left, making him confused, and open it to find a note and case, which lead to him reading the note.

'Hey man, I heard what happened, so here is a gift that the two of us can play, it is a vrmmo that I found so I bought two so you and I can play together, so I sent this to your mom today, so we can start today, go on at 1:00 PM -Frank

"The hell goes on in your mind?" Ray spoke in a whisper, as he grabbed the game which had 'Gun Gale Online' on it, and with that both Ray and Frank have been playing both ALO and GGO.

*Flashback end*

"Hey man, what's up?" A voice asked Ray, who turned around to see his brother Kazuto, who was wearing black everything, but strange thing was that one of his eyes was gold, and the other was black, but that was not the thing that got Ray's attention.

"So...Asuna wore lipstick, huh?" Ray replied in a amused tone, causing Kazuto to blush a bit and rub the back of his head awkwardly.

"Yea..anyway I am going to head to bed in a bit, I just came to check if you are still alive, since...well you know." Kazuto said, making Ray embarrassed.

"Whatever, just get rid of the lipstick or mom, and Sugu will get on your case." Ray told Kazuto, who nodded his head and left, while Ray gave a small sigh, before heading to bed.
