"Hey, do you have the feeling Sugu hit someone?" Ray asked Kazuto, as he looked up from his work and looked at Ray and shrugging his shoulders.
"Probably, but if possible, may who ever it is...I hope that person had a great life to live." Kazuto replied shedding a tear and giving a honorable look, causing Ray to laugh and about to fall on the floor.
"A-a little dramatic are we?" Ray asked with a smirk, which caused Kazuto to roll his eyes but give a equal smirk.
"Maybe, maybe not that really is up to opinion." Kazuto answered with a grin, which Ray rolled his eyes.
"Yea, yea...so if she did hit someone who do you think it is?" Ray asked, which Kazuto thought about for a bit then smiled.
"Probably that one guy from yesterday." Kazuto answered, making Ray surprised.
"I guess...now thinking about it though, he seems really ready to protect Sugu, but also is lacking the heart of it all." Ray replied with a straight face, making Kazuto think about the thoughts.
"Probably right, we will never know until time shows." Kazuto stated, which Ray smirked at the words Kazuto said.
"Yes we will, but if he makes her cry I will kill him." Ray replied, making Kazuto shiver at the thought.
"so...ready to head back to ALO?" Kazuto asked, making Ray smirk grew even more.
"You better believe it." Ray answered.
*A few minutes in ALO*
"Ok, so all we do is wait for-" Nightmare started till the door to the dinner open reveling Lefa who just stared at them.
"Never mind?" Kirito asked, which Nightmare gave a sigh and nodded his head, which confused Lefa.
"Umm...ok one are you ready to go, and two what were you talking about?" Lefa replied, which the boys shook their heads.
"Just talking about when you would come, so are there any shops nearby, cause with these beginners gear we are very screwed." Nightmare answered, which Lefa blinked then grinned at Nightmare.
"That is interesting, but yes there are shops by here." Lefa told Nightmare, who nodded his head.
"Alright, good call on the gear, but first Yui, Strea wake up we are about to leave, and two is this yuild? I think that is the name, is the money in this game?" Kirito replied, as he shook his pockets, while Nightmare did the same thing to Zoey, causing Lefa to raise a eyebrow.
"Don't judge us, and yes it's the money." Nightmare told his adopted siblings, who laughed like no tomorrow.
"Let's just go shopping..." Nightmare added with a growl, making them laugh even harder with the girls joining in after hearing the conversation.
*A few minutes after shopping*
"Hahahaha!" Lefa laughed while rolling on the ground and holding her stomach, while the two brothers looked confused, as Kirito wore a style similar to his SAO clothes, and a wide and long sword attached to his back (Seriously I don't know what is funny about it), Nightmare on the other hand looked completely different he wore a black western trench coat, with light black western jeans, black finger less gloves, a white shirt with grey sleeves, a red bandana tied around his neck, and is wearing black western boots, and behind his back is a black long sword with silver design of a dragon, but unknown to Kirito and Sugu, Nightmare bought two more swords.
"Ok if your done laughing let's get going." Nightmare told Sugu, who was trying to catch her breath.
"Do you know why she was laughing?" Kirito asked, which Nightmare shrug.
"A-alright, ok I know a spot that should help us, but Nightmare you are not going to like it one bit." Lefa told Nightmare, who raised a eyebrow.
"How so? From a scale from annoyed or upset to making me want to tear someone's head off or crying?" Nightmare asked, which left Lefa whistling and walking away.
"Ow, um I'm going to follow her." Kirito told Nightmare, who was staring with a gaping mouth and wide eyes.
"What the Hell!" Nightmare yelled, causing people to starred at him.
*A few minutes later*
"Ok one! You two left me alone in a town I don't know about! Two do you guys hate me?" Nightmare told Lefa and Kirito, who were just starting at him.
"No, and the way this tower we are by is since it is high we can use the top to be high in the air, which allows us to be in the air easily and we don't have to worry about going higher in the air." Lefa explained, which Kirito nodded, but Nightmare was as pale as snow.
"Alright come on Nightmare." Kirito told Nightmare, who was shaking like no tomorrow, making Lefa sigh.
"Come on being in the air for-ow wait, uhh...just do it for your girl." Lefa added, which Nightmare just gave a blank look.
"...Just hurry up..." Nightmare replied in a emotionless voice, making Kirito and Lefa shake a bit.
"Uhh, right." Kirito agreed somewhat, making Lefa sigh.
"Alright come on we have to make it to the top." Lefa replied, as the adopted brothers nodded their heads in a understanding way.
"By the way...did you hit someone today?" Nightmare asked, making Lefa confused.
"Why would you ask that?" Lefa questioned with curiosity, causing Nightmare to just stare at her for a bit.
"Cause I have a chill that only reacts when you or Kirito attack someone or something in real life." Nightmare explained, and it made Kirito and Lefa look at him with shock, surprise, amazement, and awe.
"Really?!" They Kirito and Lefa asked, which made Nightmare laugh.
"Yes, and no, I can tell if you make a deadly strike or hit, but I can't tell if your in a dangerous fight." Nightmare explained, causing Kirito and Lefa to nod their heads in a understanding way.
"That still-" Kirito started till a voice called out.
"LEFA!" The voice called again, revealing a man and 3 Sylths.
"Sigurd, what is it that you want?" Lefa asked with a bit of surprise, as the man named Sigurd just scowled.
"Never mind that, what is this that I hear that you are leaving?" Sigurd replied in a voice of anger, making Kirito and Nightmare frown.
"I'm just heading to were the tree is." Lefa answered, which made Sigurd raise a eyebrow at what Lefa said.
"That does not make sense, but you cannot leave the guild and if you are gone you will be a traitor." Sigurd replied with a grin, making Lefa flinch, but before anyone knew it Nightmare punch Sigurd in the face causing him to fall, but no damage was done, but it made everyone stop and frozen from the look Nightmare gave.
"You better shut the hell up...that is my sister your talking." Nightmare growled, with Kirito joining him, and made the three Sylths scared like no tomorrow.
"Come on let's go Nightmare it's a waste." Kirito told Nightmare, who nodded his head and walked with Kirito, making Lefa snap out of her trance and followed her brothers, as they all walk to the top.
"That was no guild..." Kirito muttered in anger and sadness, which Nightmare noticed and looked displeased, but Lefa was confused.
"Sugu we are sorry we got you in trouble, and all." Nightmare apologized, which Lefa just rolled her eyes.
"It's no problem guys, I did not like the way they acted at all." Lefa stated, which made both her brothers smile.
"Heh, that is our sister for you, but let's go before we get into a lot of trouble." Kirito claimed, making Nightmare gulp, and Kirito and Lefa laughed.
"Lefa!" A voice called, which made the three adopted siblings look back to see Recon running towards them.
"What are you doing here Recon?" Lefa asked surprised, as Recon was out of breath, which made Kirito and Nightmare laugh a bit.
"I-I just heard that you got labeled as a traitor, and got kicked out of the guild." Recon told the three who were surprised.
"Wow, news travels fast does it?" Nightmare muttered, which made the two Sylths sigh and agreed.
"You wouldn't believe it." The Sylth duo grumbled, making Kirito rube his cheek.
"Man worse than-you know what just forget it." Kirito stated, which they all nodded their heads in agreement.
"Ok, with that out of the way we should leave, so are you staying or coming with us Recon?" Lefa asked, which Recon looked hesitated about answering.
"N-no I'll stay, I'm going to check if Sigurd is up to anything, and once I'm done I will be at the tree as fast as I can." Recon answered, which made Lefa leave, causing Recon to be sad.
"Shit, Um...I'll go low ground thank you very much!" Nightmare called out in a pale color that is not healthy, then he was gone.
"Jeez they are not in a mood to talk, but hey it is a good idea to see if that guy is up to something, but level up and be careful I've seen too much to know that something bad is going to happen." Kirito told Recon before he left, leaving Recon to think where he stand.
*A while later*
"Ok so we are going to land here!" Lefa yelled, which Kirito nodded his head, and Nightmare just looked up and landed on the ground easily.
"That was not so difficult." Nightmare claimed, which Lefa and Kirito gave him a look.
"That is because you were close to the ground!" Kirito claimed, which Nightmare shrug not giving a care.
"So? Now what do we do? I mean come on we can't even fly for a bit, and it is around dinner, so now what?" Nightmare questioned, making Kirito and Lefa rubbing the back of their heads.
"Umm...well we take turns one person goes at a time." Lefa thought out loud, which Nightmare sighed.
"You two just go and eat I'll stay here and wait." Nightmare declared, making Lefa and Kirito shock at what Nightmare was saying.
"A-are you sure? I mean what would happen if you were over powered?" Lefa asked, making Nightmare roll his eyes.
"I got it then, so just go and eat." Nightmare told them, which they nodded their heads, and sat down and logged off.
"Papa can I have a piggy back ride?" Zoey asked with her head tilted to the side, which made Nightmare grin.
"You bet." Nightmare smiled, making Zoey cheer.
*In the real world*
"I wounder why Ray wanted us to come and eat first?" Sugu asked, making Kazuto shrug at the thought.
"I don't know, but let's eat so we can go back." Kazuto replied, as grabbing some materials from the cabinets and such.
"Yea, and let's make Ray something so when he comes to eat, he does not have to worry about making something." Lefa added, which made Kazuto smile.
"Yea, that would be good." Kazuto agreed with a smile.
*A few minutes later in ALO*
"Hey Nightmare we-" Lefa started when she stood up, only to be shocked when Nightmare was giving Zoey a piggy back ride.
"Huh? Ow you guys are back, well Zoey I'll be back in a bit I have to go eat then I'll be right back ok?" Nightmare told Zoey, who nodded her head.
"Ok but can you please hurry papa!" Zoey told Nightmare, who nodded then layed down and logged off.
"Ok I need a explanation here." Lefa called out, which Kirito looked at her.
"Umm...short version Yui, Strea, and Zoey are AI's from Sword Art Online, that came to ALO when Nightmare transfer information, and they came here, and Yui and Strea's mom is Asuna my girlfriend, and Zoey's mom is Rain or Nijiki Ray's girlfriend." Kirito explained, which shocked Lefa.
"So I'm an aunt, while you and Ray are teenage parents!" Lefa exclaimed while laughing like no tomorrow.
"It is not that funny...I'm going to go play with my daughters." Kirito said while whispering the last part to himself.
*A few minutes later*
"Ok one I'm back, two cut back on the tuna I almost had a terrible case of throwing up...in the kitchen repetitively." Nightmare told Kirito and Lefa, who were about to laugh, as well as Zoey, Yui, and Strea.
"Right, sorry!" Lefa replied with a look that she apologizes, which Nightmare made a small smirk and chuckle.
"It's fine, now let's go to...where exactly?" Nightmare asked, making Kirito shrug and Lefa just sighed.
"We are going to a nutral territory that is in a cave we are heading to." Lefa answered, making Kirito and Nightmare understand.
"Alright then let's go!" Kirito yelled as he flew off, with Yui, and Strea going into his pockets, while Zoey went into Nightmare's pocket, as Lefa flew straight off.
"Dame it!" Nightmare yelled, as he flew close to the top of the trees, but unknown to them somethings was watching them, as they flew to a cave which was not that far.
"Hey! Does anyone feel that something is watching us?" Kirito yelled, which made everyone look serious.
"Yea, for a bit that is what I was feeling...maybe we can use the cave to find out if something is following us." Lefa replied, which the two ex-SAO players nodded their heads in agreement.
"Well we better run since it is just a bit over there." Nightmare yelled while pointing a bit forward to a cave.
"Ok then, LAND AND RUN!" Kirito screamed, which they all quickly land and run as fast as they could, till they stop a bit.
"Ok...now what!" Nightmare hissed as he looked around, till Lefa grabbed both their arms and threw them to the wall, as she followed and cast a spell making a fake wall appear in front of them.
"One, ow that hurt like hell, two why?" Kirito asked, which Lefa glared at him.
"Shh! We are in this protective magic and it will break if we jump out of it or talk to loud so be quiet for a bit." Lefa told them, which they raise their hands up and rolled their eyes.
"Whatever..." Both brothers muttered at the same time, till Lefa jumped out and shot some light magic like bullets.
"Ok got to Learn that, and why did you jump out Lefa?" Kirito asked, as Lefa looked worried about something.
"We are being followed by the Salamanders..." Lefa whispered, which shocked them.
"We need a plan." Kirito declared, which made Nightmare smirk.
"I got one." Nightmare stated, making Kirito and Lefa curious, as Nightmare had a big grin on his face.
*A bit later*
"Ugh!" Kirito groan as he flew from a wall made of earth.
"It is high level earth magic meaning they have a high level magician, and we can't get through, and we can't swim unless we have a Undine." Lefa summarized the situation, which Kirito looked annoyed.
"That is just great, so the only way out is to fight." Kirito started sarcastically at first, which Lefa sighed.
"I hope the plan works." Lefa whispered, until they saw 3 guys putting shields down, 3 magicians in the middle and 5 more magicians in the back.
"We got a bit of time, so Lefa get ready to heal just in case this goes bad." Kirito told Lefa, who nodded her head and got in position, as Kirito got his sword ready, and the magicians were getting a spell ready, until someone screamed.
"That that you salamander losers!" Nightmare yelled from behind a magician who was stabbed through the back then exploded.
"Aaaahhhh!" A bunch of the Salamanders screamed, which Nightmare kept on taking magicians down one by one, as Kirito attacked the distracted sheild users until one person was left, which Lefa watched the Salamander.
"Ok now who sent you here?!" Lefa yelled, which the Salamander glared.
"Fuck off." The Salamander growled, until Nightmare grabbed his leg and was hanging him upside down over the lake, scaring the Salamander like no tomorrow.
"Now I can't control him any longer now listen, or he will cut you until you turn out like your friends." Kirito told the Salamander, and after a few minutes he was done talking, which Kirito gave him his friends things.
"Man you are brutal Nightmare...plus did you get that from Batman?" Lefa muttered, but Nightmare just smiled.
"Who says that I was going to do anything?" Nightmare asked, which surprised Lefa, but Zoey smiled.
"That is my Papa for you scary, but is really caring." Zoey stated, but Strea was just starting in awe.
"Scary definitely." Strea agreed, which Nightmare chuckle.
"Come on, let's-hold on I have to head back I got a message from Recon, so I'll be back in a bit." Lefa told her brothers, as she left while sitting on a bench.
"Do you guys want to buy some food or something?" Nightmare asked, which the girls cheered, making Kirito and Nightmare smile.
*A few minutes later*
"Ok I'm back, but I have bad-where did you get the food?" Lefa questioned, which they all pointed at the shop behind her, which she looked dumbfound.
"So what is the problem?" Nightmare asked, which snapped Lefa out of her shock look, to one of sadness, which brought both of Nightmare and Kirito's attention.
"It is a problem in Sylth territory, you see we are having a problem with someone working with the salamanders, and far from here is a meeting with the leaders of the Sylths and the Cat Sith's, but if the both die then chaos and war will happen." Lefa explained, making Nightmare and Kirito shocked.
"Alright then let's go, no one will have war today, plus might be fun." Kirito told them, which made Nightmare laugh a bit.
"Alright, might be worth the wild." Nightmare agreed, which shocked Lefa.
"But what about the tree?!" Lefa yelled, as they walked away from the town to the nearest exit.
"Later, but now we run!" Kirito shouted as he ran, while grabbing Lefa's arm which made her follow, with Nightmare by them running as well.
"Shit! Mobs!" Nightmare yelled, as they ran at some mobs.
