Mayonaka

The moon loomed in the dark sky as night fell across Aincrad, making everything more dangerous. In the distance I saw a boy walk with a familiar. Or at least I thought it was a familiar considering the fact that the wolf by his side wasn't attacking him. What are they doing out at night? Player Killers? I whispered and looked above me. Thinking quick, before they came, I hoisted myself into the tree. From there I snaked across the branch and waited for them to pass under me. Hopefully they weren't PKs, it would be a horrible time for me to earn an orange cursor.

Your very kind. I replied to his reassurance. Wherever she is I will find her! I pumped a small fist in the air but retracted it quickly. Talking is nice. I say at an utter loss of words at the moment. Not only was a cute guy talking to me but my sister was occupying my mind, making me sound like an idiot when I spoke. Embarrassed, I scurried over the bench he pointed to and sat down. Get it together Utukashii!

The boy ahead of me turned around with a welcoming smile. He also seemed to be rather happy to see me. Your not weird at all. My cheeks turned bright red when he complimented my beauty. Actually I came here to have fun with my sister, but she's somewhere I don't know. I said wit ha hint of sadness in my voice. It was rare for me to not only open up to someone new but to tell them about my sister too. I haven't had any luck finding her at all, unfortunately.

Where do I even sell them, and why don't you want the materials? You confuse me Setsuko.

We should start off in the fields with the boars. I said, as if I clued her in on the plan yesterday. Do you have anything to take with you? I asked, a little bored from just sitting there watching the water go by now.

(OOC- Sorry, that was such a short post...)

I was impressed by the attack they accomplished together, it was awesome! With a grin of knowing it's about to end, I started closing in on the flowered Little Nepent. The plant flailed it's vines at me from all directions, there wasn't a way I could avoid all of them. My eyes narrowed at the clever little thing. I dodged most of it's attempts but still got a few scratches on my before I charged straight through the Little Nepent's mouth. A retched sound came from the Little Nepent as it died. Looks like were done here! I said overly chipper. It's yours now, Sieghart. I said and swiped my HUD, giving him the Ovule. I had fun fighting with these two, even if I didn't obtain any items.

I laughed at there brotherly instincts, looks like I was right. Call me whatever you please, I'm not too picky with names. I said to Leonhardt with a polite smile. With Sieghart already yelling at me to start an attack I pull out my sword, which was quite special to me. It specialized in doing more damage per attack rather than looking pretty. I flipped into the air and stabbed my sword down hard into the middle of the Little Nepent, obviously killing it. Your turn! I said to Sieghart's brother. It was almost too easy for me to kill these monsters.

From exactly where I told her to come; Neloe came running in my direction.I think so too! Forgive me for leaving you back there. I said with a nervous laugh. Now, are you ready to go in? I said with an excited face this time. I couldn't wait to eat the sweet cake!

I messaged Neloe, giving her directions to the cake shop. To get out of the alley you go straight, turn left, then move into the square. From there you should look for a small shop with a tiny window decoration on it. I knew she was stuck in the alley, not knowing where to go.

Siegharts older brother? I thought as the well mannered boy gave his introductory to me. How can he be so polite? The fact dawned on me that they had known each other their whole life, and I didn't. It was a complication because they knew each others instincts right? You can explain to your brother what not to do around this plant. You could also tell him that you almost got your head chopped off by it too. Oh and by the way, I'll duel the winner Sieg. I said with a grin on my face, I now knew his nickname. It was payback for waking me up so suddenly. I place my hands on the back of my neck and walked well ahead of the two, giving them a chance to catch up with each other's lives.

Yeah it is a nice day. I said, misunderstanding what she was talking about. I was talking about the sky, nothing else. My eyes glanced over to the water spout where Setsuko seemed to be having all of her attention to. When I noticed how nice it was I too did stare at it. The beautiful stone engravings seemed to make a pattern just below where the water came out. It was actually quite interesting to me now.

I thought we would go hunting today if that's okay. We could get you materials to practice on and craft with while I got experience points. I'll be okay giving materials to you, you need them more than I do. I say, proposing the same thing as yesterday.

I sprinted even faster when she started to catch up. With another turn into an alley I lost her from behind her. I kept running hard until I got to the front of the shop. I panted in front of the door and looked at the sign name. Oh that's right, it's not a name I can't pronounce. Now where is Neloe? I giggled slightly and waited for her.

I like this idea, I also love to see new quests. If there is a beta I would like to take part in it.

I was startled by the sudden force on my leg. I grabbed my sword, that was on the ground next to me, and jumped to my feet. When I looked through blurry eyes at the player in front of me I recognized him, Sieghart. Why does everyone insist on waking me while I'm sleeping in a public place! I said out loud angerly. I was of course talking to myself, so it wouldn't make sense to Sieghart...or the boy next to him? I lowered my sword and gave a confused look to Sieghart. Who is he? I asked, not really calmed down from what just happened.

I was delighted to hear that see too liked cake. It's the other way! I called to her and pointed in the opposite direction she had been running. I'll race you! I shouted and started to sprint towards town. I had the advantage, I knew where it was.

After I made sure Sieghart had made it to his room without any issues I left the Inn building. I didn't trust this place, even if it was just an NPC infested village. What the..I muttered when I noticed a small boy peeking at me from behind a tree. The child's eye widened when it saw me, returning to hide behind the tree again. I walked slowly towards the tree, with my sword out of course, and looked behind me once again. With one last deep breath I quickly ran behind the tree, the boy wasn't there anymore. That's odd. I said and looked behind me again. The little boy was now scurrying up the hill by now, scared out of his mind. I sighed laid down on the ground. No point in chasing after him. Soon, after a couple minutes of looking at the stars, I fell asleep on the ground. I was unguarded of course, leaving me weapon on the ground beside me.

Well.. I uh..I started, I had forgotten the name of the place I wanted to go. I can't remember the name but they specialize in cakes. All you can imagine, vanilla, strawberry, you name it. Would you like to start there? I asked, pleading her to agree with this.

Well I want to go fight and kill something like a monster but...I thought then looked at Neloe with a stern face. Neloe, would you like to go get something to eat with me? I'll pay. I tried offering something else again, hoping she would like this idea.

Oh, well that's good to hear. Anyways, whatcha want to do? I mean we could do anything really. I offered to Neloe. It was actually a little boring to just sit here all day. I like to fight, which cam in handy in this game but I wasn't sure what Neloe liked to do. This would be a good time to bond with her.

The battler healing Susan Stark used was very helpful, she regained full health. It was actually a really good thing to have in a battle. I gave a welcoming smile to her, encouraging her to continue. Go on! You've gotta do it, I know you can! I said with an even bigger smile on my face now.

I didn't deserve it if you didn't want to do it in the first place, why did you even agree to it? I thought, almost speaking to her. Her voice nor mood didn't change though. You seem awfully chipper, is something on your mind? I asked while I heard her whistles echo through the fields.

I looked behind me with widened eyes to see that Or'ell was catching up to me. Quickly, I picked up a few snow balls and began to run again. I thew three at once, on all sides of him, so I wouldn't miss this time. This is so much fun! I yelled and sprinted hard until I got to the town. The town looked small from far away but now, not so much. With Echo sitting on a bench nearby I ran towards him. With the icy ground it was hard to stop properly in time. I fell in front of Echo but kept skidding past him until I hit the wall. Too...fast. I said with a weak smile.

I felt a cold snowball hit my face, and splatter all over me. This tiny thing knocked me off of my feet too. A devilish grin appeared on my face as I started to make several snowballs. After this, I'll go get Echo. I thought and finished making them. With the cold snow still on my face I stood up and sprinted past the group and out the door. I threw the balls of snow at each of their faces at blazing speed. Without even looking back to see if I hit them I sprinted forwards toward where Echo ran off to.

It all happened a little to fast for my taste. First a girl came up to us and spoke to this boy I still didn't know the name to. Then she looked at me with her hand stuck out, expecting me to shake it; being mature, I did exactly that. My name is Utukashii, nice to meet you...what is your name? I say, speaking to the blue haired girl while gently shaking her hand. I couldn't help but notice that this young girl was quite beautiful.

I was confused when I pressed the forfeit button; it didn't work. I looked up a Neloe to see a 'winner' symbol floating above me. I was the one who asked in the first place, you should have won, I already have enough col and EXP. I said with kind of a whinging tone. I followed her to the bench and sat down next to her. Why would she do that?

I was more than confuse when he starting saying random things, it made no sense to me. What...?I pondered in my head, trying to make reason with myself and decode his words. Thank you, and yes, I can wait for her. I said, still utterly confused on the rest of his speech. Why is he stuttering?
