"alice..."Eugeo muttered while being asleep, his breath is hagard and body sweating as he keep muttering the beautiful blonde girl's name alice. though he appears to be having some sort of nightmare

"Alice don't go!" he reach out to her but alice keep walking and walking further to the darkness, he kept running trying to reach her but to no avail, he couldn't and he was weak enough to do so, he trip his legs making him fall to the ground as his other arm trying to reach her

"Don't go..."he muttered trying to get up but for some reason he can't or more likely he was being force to lay to the ground I'm so weak, i can't reach her or help her, I'm truly weak... he thought as he saw something in the sky that it looks like someone- no this was the same guy in the portal "Alice get away from that!"he shout only to be ignored"Alice!" he tried"Alice!"He tries once again and Alice stop walking, she slowly turn around to meet the boy's eye "I'm sorry eugeo goodbye..."She said as the main ate her and disappears, feeling anger and disappointment, he could only shout her name

"ALICE!!!!!!!"

he wakes up to see his arm holding out towards the ceiling of their house, his eyes wet though it seems he was crying and reaching out for nothing. he gets up and put his hand to his face muttering "It's just a nightmare, just a nightmare, just a nightmare"He sighed as he gets out of the bed and goes to other bed beside him and tries to get up kirito, eugeo was only hoping he could forget this nightmare and it will be just a normal day

kirito was cutting down the tree and keeps counting, eugeo was resting waiting for his brother to finish his part so he can do his part too, earlier was a strange morning, him having nightmares and thinking that alice will be gone, he sighed once again like it will happen he thought so until a dragon flew past the tree in the sky heading for the rulid village.

kirito look towards the dragon flying towards the village, eugeo looks to it aswell "could it be..." eugeo muttered "Eugeo let's find out what's happening"kirito said and Eugeo nod to him, kirito drop the axe to the side of the tree and they began running towards the village, hoping it wasn't here for alice

the dragon lands on a clear area right infront of the church as the white knight gets of from the dragon, many people could have been seen talking to each other silently asking why a knight from the capital was here, the village leader approach the knight and started asking why the knight is here, the village leader can be seen having a shock face with grief on his face as the knight keep talking to him

alice was in the back of the crowd holding a basket with ice inside of it as well as some food, she was scared that maybe the knight has come here for her for breaking the rule of taboo index, many questions and what ifs are on her head, she have to run away now but her legs wouldn't let her until someone tap her shoulder

"Hey alice what's going on?"a male voice said as she turn around to see her friends kirito and Eugeo she pounder that maybe she would tell them or not, she was scared to say anything"Hey c'mon speak already!"

"Alice!" Someone yelled at her as the crowd infront of them started getting away from them as the three look towards the village leader and the white knight"Alice dear come here!"She was scared and in trouble, she started walking towards them with a scared face

"Shes gonna get punished..."Eugeo said as he watch the scene, he wanted to help her get away from here but his body won't move I can't move, why is my body won't move! he thought, he was trying to move but his body won't obey, kirito on the other hand wants to get alice away, so the only thing he could do is just watch but he had an idea, he ran back towards their house grab a wooden sword he and Alice made for his birthday as he rush out towards the crowd once again hoping he could make it in time

"Alice did you break one of the taboo index?"Her father asked in a stern voice, hoping her own daughter alice would say no but reality won't always grant his wish

"Yes"

"I see please take care of her mister knight"

the white knight nods as he place chain clothes in her body as he attached it to his saddle, he was about to get on until someone yelled

"WAIT"

he look towards someone- no a boy who seem to be at age of 11 holding a wooden sword, he seem to be panting, he catch his breath then asked"Why would you arrest alice and for whatever reason is it!"

"She broke one of the taboo index and that rule is 547 never cross to the dark territory"

"She just trip over and touch it with the tip of her fingers, how is that breaking the taboo index!"

"its still a violation nonetheless"

kirito was agitated because of that fact that arresting her for whatever reason even if its a small mistake is consider a crime such a small mistake is a crime and a violation? He grit his teeth as rush towards the knight preparing to hit him until something or someone hit his stomach as he falls to the ground coughing, he tries to get up until he heard the village elder to strangle him as he felt many people pinning his limbs and his head, gritting his teeth he tried to get up once more until he gives up and yelled

"Eugeo Get alice!"

I know that but my body refuse to move! Eugeo was trying his hardest to move but his body won't listen. The knight hop on to his dragon and started to fly and aswell as alice who has a sad smile on her face telling them that "it's fine, it's gonna be alright" He wants to move he wants to!

"EUGEO!!!"

i know i must move, i must save alice before she get away! his body finally started moving little by little until he felt something to his left eye, red with a number and words he couldn't read, his body won't move once again Not again come on move before she gets away before all our happy moment gets away!the dragon fly's away with alice towards the capital Eugeo was powerless kirito was force to the ground, both of them feel weak and hatred to their actions that they let they're female friend alice get away without doing anything

kirito broke free and started running but stop beside eugeo, gritting his teeth with anger, feeling powerless and weak and was the verge of tears he could only yell her name

"ALICE!!!!!!!"

Kiri- no Kirigaya kazuto woke up from a machine that he slept on with a coat and IV water to his side that is attached to his arm, he sat up feeling anger and guilt and his eyes watery, probably due to him crying with confusion on his face, he could only mutter one thing

"alice..."

"looks like your done diving" someone spoke he turn to his side to see someone who appears to be in his mid 30's with a white lab coat on crossing his arms and leaning to the side of the door with a smile on his face "Welcome back...

Kazuto"
