|| Personality ||

Out-going || Friendly || Warm || Protective

Akio is best described as caring. He would do anything for those close to him or even a stranger. He's bright and charming personality makes it easy for him to quickly make friends. Others feel comfortable around Akio since he's always cheerful, he's probably the most optimistic person you'll ever meet. He's very popular amongst his classmates but isn't seen as a role-model because of his somewhat abstract view on the world. He sees only the best in others but that doesn't mean he's gullible (fine, maybe a bit). He's usually aware of others intentions but still chooses to ignore bad ones. The motto he goes by is forgive and forget, he'll easily forgive anyone who apologizes. Akio's the exact opposite of a vengeful person.

He's quite possessive over his closest friends and family. He's not overly pretentious, but he feels best when he's getting attention. Not attention from big crowds or all of his friends just those few who he has a special bond to. He wouldn't survive being ignored by Satomi or Koji. He's very honest and wears his heart on a sleeve which are generally good traits but can easily be exploited.

His biggest fault is his sense of humour which is completely and utterly horrible, yet no one had the hart to tell him so he makes a lot of bad jokes. There is no tragic story hiding behind his smile, no complicated dark past.

Arcas and Akio are the same person but if someone met Akio they wouldn't believe his in game persona. He's a bit clumsy and has a dreamy expression but since his bright aura can't be seen through a screen Arcas comes of as nice but still more reserved than Akio actually is.

In real life Akio would never hurt anyone but this is EDEN and here he's willing to do (almost) anything to get Satomi back to safety.

|| Reason For Playing ||

It was supposed to be just a fun game, right? Akio's reason for playing is ridiculously simple, he wanted to try it out. The thought of being able to project yourself into a game sounded awesome.

Getting stuck in the game, not so awesome. Being able to be a character and fight is quite fun but living in fear for both his and Satomi's life isn't worth it. Akio is determined to get out of this place, for Satomi and their families.

|| Biography ||

Akio is the first son of the Matsuoka family. He's originally from Tokyo but his family moved to Osaka where is was less crowded so they could raise him in peace. His father is a painter, and his mother is the second daughter of a wealthy family (Can you guess whose family opposed the marriage?). He has a fifteen year old brother named Koji.The Matsuoka family isn't extremely rich but they're definitely upper middle class so Akio always attended private schools.

From a young age Akio was outgoing, making friends since the first day of middle school. When Koji was born he immediately took on the role of the big protective brother. His brother and him are in the typical sibling relationship. They fight over the small things but all in all Akio has a very close knit family.

In his high school days Akio realized that even though he had many friends and people always wanted to hand out with him, he didn't have a real best friend. Someone who completely understood him, but that changed when he met Satomi. Despite their clashing personalities they became fast friends. They completed each other like ying and yang.

Since they went to different collages Akio was a bit scared their closeness would fade so they started to play EDEN. Satomi's and his bond became clear when they started battling in EDEN, where one was lacking the other was strong, making them the perfect duo.


So begins...

While walking along the docks of MAC ANU, the small ping! alerted him of a response from his flash mail. Pausing in his steady pace, he opened it up, and let allowed the corners of his mouth to grin at the other's response.

"..Do you want to die....This is too early!" It was almost too easy to get the other riled up, especially since the blue-haired man was not a morning person, which was a shame too, since Cielo did spend about a week on just the sky's scenery alone. After all, he had promised breath-taking, and realistic views hadn't he? He was pretty sure he got it, especially since there was often times where he'd catch players simply watching the sunset to have some sort of normal feeling in EDEN. The sky was probably the most comforting thing, as it ticked away and told time for everyone who saw it.

Pausing once again as a small ping was heard he blinked, scanning the message before typing out a quick response.

"If we're going to the forest AREA, I'll be happy to go~ There's an item I want there~" Before hitting the "send" button back to the other Game Master. He only wondered what type of cold response the other would send back, probably reprimanding him about taking this game too seriously... Well, they had to blend in, right? The albino would simply play along to the game, even if there was no point too.

Being a Game Master could often times be a bit boring. There was no point in training, no point in item-gathering, and no point in doing anything in the game. They could leave whenever they wanted, so the struggle the normal players had didn't apply to them. After all, Cielo or rather "Satoshi Irie" did have to appear now and again in the outside world, less people would get suspicious, right? Not to mention all the outside work of the game like programming had to be done by someone. Of course, the pair took turns, but at times he wondered whether Akuma wanted to leave or not.

Opening up his own menu, he quickly sent a party request to the blue-haired player, just to spot him in the midst of everyone the root town MAC ANU could hold. The city of MAC ANU seemed to be a big hit with the other players of EDEN, since it resembled an old, and rustic town. With the town being the most biggest, and having the most occupants here it was troublesome to locate one player unless they were in a party, so usually Akuma was his constant party member, along with a few other normal players as well. Of course, the item he wanted was from a rather strong area, so maybe Arch Rune, or Korpal would be interested in going too... That way, if his initial partner decided to be an ass, or decline his request to simply play he could have a back-up plan. Opening up the menu again, he typed out a flash mail to Korpal and Arch Rune.

"If you want to go on an adventure, just let me know~ I need people to go to the forest area~!"

The setting changes from ROOT TOWN: MAC ANU to ROOT TOWN: BREG EPONA

ImageA year, almost a year passed since they got stuck in the game. The original panic and chaos settled down but Akio can't help but think how much longer he's going to have to stay here.
It's not that his life here is bad, being one half of the best PVP has plenty of benefits. Such as being able to afford a house in Breg Epona and opening a weapon shop. But no amount of recognition and gold can ever be as valuable as seeing his friends and family again. His memory of his family is slowly fading away, when he closes his eyes their faces aren't as expressive, he can't remember the smell of his mothers cooking... This game has already taken them away from Akio, he can't let himself forget them.

"Breakfast is ready!" Akio yelled from the kitchen. Satomi was still asleep so he hoped to surprise her by demonstrating how much he has improved his cooking skill. "It might be a bit burned... or a lot burned... but it tastes ok and I made tea, the one that you like best." He made his way to Satomi's room. Upon reaching the girl's room he sighed, Satomi was sill in bed, covered by a hill of blankets. But what made him sigh is the mess the room was in. "Aish, Satomi you should really pick up after yourself, just because you had servants in the real world doesn't mean things magically sort themselves here." Not bothering to check weather Satomi woke up he continued his monologue. "The shop's closed today but a customer said he's going to come pick up his sword so keep an eye out. I've heard some red-headed guy from Silver Lyre has been acting suspiciously and asking around about us, I'm going to check that out. Ok? Ok." With a small smile he pressed a chaste kiss on the (still sleeping) girl's forehead."I like having these 'productive' talks with you."
Akio returned to the kitchen and quickly finished his breakfast. He wrote a reminder about the customer on for Satomi, put on his red coat and headed outside. He walked through the streets of Breg Epona. The city was truly amazing, Akio remembered the times when he was living in a sketchy inn in Dol Donna, it was the complete opposite from the bright atmosphere that this part of EDEN has. Now it was time to pull a few strings and get himself to the Silver Lyre guild home. He sent a few private messages and waited. In just a few moment he received information that the leader of Silver Lyre boarded the train for Breg Epona. Akio headed in the direction of the train station, he'll wait for the other and follow him to the guild home. This investigation is going to be a piece of cake.

Satomi laid calmly in bed. Sleep seemed to be the only way she could find peace within herself. Things had been quite hectic lately especially with the people here going crazy with the new tournament approaching. She payed it no mind. They did not concern her nor did their lives. They were unimportant. On the other hand, the world cannot be filled with all respectable players. Some are born to be losers or examples. That's how this game works. Either work your hardest to get where your going and be trampled by someone who will. It was harsh but so was actually reality. It was no different for anyone no matter where you were from or where your going. How dreadful.

Her dreams seemed quite blank as usual. Dreamless nights were common for her but she didn't care. Earlier in the year her dreams were surprisingly about her family. Quite the shocker. Her mothers face with its beautiful smile and what she could remember of her fathers. Now she can barely remember the color of her mothers favorite dress. Sometimes she felt that it was better that way. Of course, that was only her doubts speaking. Or perhaps, for once in her life, she actually missed the family she barely saw. It was interesting how the brain works after being away for so long.

She began to hear muffled words and a slight warmth on her forehead. Soon she began to open her eyes seeing no one was there. "Akio.....?" She mumbled slightly still slightly asleep. She sat up in her bed and rubbed her eyes slightly. She looked around slightly before getting out of bed. She suddenly had the urge to straighten up. Usually she would not touch it or just beg Akio very nicely to do it but today she felt like accomplishing something. She began to pick up the many books and trinkets scattered from floors to table. It didn't take her long to finish; as expected. She looked around her room again before heading to the window. The people of BREG EPONA seemed to be starting their day. She soon began to head to the front before seeing a message and smelling what seemed to be cooking.

She couldn't help but laugh slightly. "Oh... He cooked this morning." She wasn't much of a cook and neither was he but she enjoyed when he tried too. It meant that he really cared. She sat down and began to eat and drink her tea while reading his note. She sighed slightly. She hated consulting with people. This was mainly why sometimes she wish she didn't have a shop to sell her sewn armors. Sure, the income was great and customers enjoyed her work but she can't handle the idiot manner of some of them. She wouldn't be working today since she closed her shop whenever Akio did. In the mean time of waiting, perhaps she could make something new.

She began to sew away before remembering Akio was away all on his own. He could take care of himself but she just didn't like having no conversation with him when he was away. It was too dangerous. She began to open her messenger and send him some mail. "Good morning. I enjoyed the breakfast you made for me. Your tea is always the best. Anyway, have you made it to the train station safely? Also, this customer or yours. What time may i be expecting him?" She grumbled slightly. She was beginning to sound like a worried parent now. She shook her head and continued her message. "Im sorry. I didn't mean to sound so..... eh.... You know." She soon sent the message and went back to her tea and sewing waiting for this customer.

ImageFor the fifth time Akio checked the time. He knew he shouldn't have hurried to the station, but he still did and now he's going to have to wait another 40 minutes just for the train to arrive. There was nothing left to do but try to entertain himself with mini games. Just as he was about to make a new personal high score the familiar -beep "You have 2 new messages" beep- distracted him.
The first message was from Satomi. Oh, she's finally up. No matter how ordinary the messages he got from Satomi might have been, they always brought a small smile to Akio's face.
Satomi-chan ♥
Good morning. I enjoyed the breakfast you made for me. Your tea is always the best. Anyway, have you made it to the train station safely? Also, this customer or yours. What time may I be expecting him? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound so..... eh.... You know.

The last sentence made Akio's smile even wider. He found it very cute that Satomi still had trouble admitting she was caring. Quickly he formed his reply.
Good morning to you too. I'm glad you liked the breakfast. Hierophant should be there soon, definitely before noon. I know I don't have to tell you but please be nice, he's an important informant so... please? Yes, 'mom', I'm at the station. I'll see you later for training.
The other message he received also brought good news. It was from a 'friend'. Nowadays there seems to be a lot of people that like to call themselves his 'friends', as if being close to a top player will make them successful too. Truth to be told Akio didn't mind them because sometimes they were quite useful.
Unknown player
Korpal won't be at the meeting. You're safe, none of the others have high detection.

Well wasn't that just grand, He won't have to worry as much. Silver Lyre is a strong guild but Akio doubted that he'd have much trouble following Raijin and Emma. What bothered him is that Silver Lyre is known as a peaceful guild, so why are there so many rumours about them investigating Satomi and him?
Time want by fast enough after that. Akio looked at the time and went a litter closer to the arrival platform. A moment later a computerized female voice made the announcement. -The train from MAC ANU is arriving in 1 minute.-
Once the passengers started to disembark he had no trouble spotting the white and pink haired targets getting out of the train. Putting on his hood (So he wouldn't get recognized.) he started walking a few steps behind the pair form Silver Lyre.

As Satomi waited for Akio's reply, she began to work on her newest project. Each stitch she began to put into her new creations were precious and required great care. She began to hum while doing so to pass the time. She had no intention of treating this 'customer' of his friendly. She barely treated anyone friendly; besides Akio. He was an exception. He was always a exception. In fact, her lack of friendliness was the reason where she didn't have many friends in EDEN. Akio was the only contact she had and needed. It had been that way for so long and she had no intention of changing it.

She paused while hearing the message notification coming through.

Beep bop~ New message

♪ Akio ♪

Good morning to you too. I'm glad you liked the breakfast. Hierophant should be there soon, definitely before noon. I know I don't have to tell you but please be nice, he's an important informant so... please? Yes, 'mom', I'm at the station. I'll see you later for training.


Before she could even respond, she heard a knock at the door. She took a deep breath before going to the door and opening it. She paused while looking at Hierophant. Of course, she kept the same dark and frightening stare he usual had. "OH. Hello. Is uh.. Arcas here? Im here to pick up my weapon." She remained silent and stared at the person in front of her. She could tell that her presents made him very uncomfortable. Hierophant gulped. "E-Eh.... Please i just... I just want my weapon. I mean no harm." She quickly slammed the door and went to the weapon that was nicely wrapped. She picked it up and returned to the door before opening it and handing it to the person. She bowed respectfully before slamming the door. "Uh... T-Thank you...Tell Arcas i said thank you as well." Truthfully, that was the nicest she could be to a random stranger who appeared at her door. It was perfect.

She went back to the table pulled up her messenger with a slight smile.

Don't you worry one bit. I took very good care of your customer. I was on my best behavior and was the polite good girl everyone loves. ♡"

She couldn't help but smirk a bit to herself while sending him all this.

Anyway, please do be careful. I'll wait for you here in town. I may walk around a bit but im sure that later on when your return, i will be back in our home. Please do hurry back though. It seems quite boring when your not around. Hey, if you come back with some useful information, maybe (just maybe) ill give you a back rub... Just maybe.

Satomi paused and giggled a bit to herself. She couldn't help but send this funny messages to him. It was normal. She soon sent the message and continued her sewing.
