The Ghost of Aincrad.(SAO x Male reader)

The Raid.

It's been thirty minutes as Kratos, Atreus, and Ryuu were still sitting on the stairs before they heard someone log in and saw Kirito logged in.

Atreus: Is everything okay?

Kirito: *sighs* Not yet. But I'll try.

Kratos: What will you do?

Kirito: I'll show you later. For now, I have to be somewhere. Please, wait for me here. I'll be on the north terrace of Arun.

He said before flying away.

*Time skip*

After some time, they heard someone logging in again before they stand up and see Leafa logging in.

Atreus: How are you feeling?

Leafa: I-I... I'm fine... But I think I'll return to Sylvein...

She started to walk to the stairs, Kratos called her.

Kratos: You loved your brother, did you not? More than a brother.

Leafa looked at him shocked, before she looked down and tears threatened to fall from her eyes.

Kratos: You're in pain, I understand.

Leafa: You do...?

Kratos: Yes. Long ago I lost someone I loved dearly.

Leafa: You're an SAO survivor like my brother...

Kratos: Yes. She died because of me.

Leafa looked down again.

Kratos: You may have lost the person that you love. But you have not lost your brother. You still have time to set things right.

He said before walking down the stairs.

Leafa: Where are you going?

Kratos: To meet Kirito. What will you do?

Leafa: I... I don't think I'm ready to meet him just yet.

Kratos: Take your time. He's not going anywhere.

He said before flying away and Atreus followed him.

Ryuu: I know what you're going through, Leafa.

Leafa: You do?

Ryuu: Yeah. Maybe not too far as to say I like him. But I do want be with him. And I can tell you for sure, everything will be alright.

She said before she followed Kratos.

*Time skip*

Kirito, Kratos, Atreus, and Ryuu were on a small flying island, as Kratos, Atreus, and Ryuu were on top of a pillar.

They then see Leafa landing on the island.

Kirito: Hey.

Leafa: Here I am.

Kirito: Sugu...

Leafa held her hand and stopped him.

Leafa: Brother, let's have a duel. Let's finish what we started.

She then draws her sword.

Kirito: This time, no handicaps.

He said as he draws his sword and the two of them took a stance. 

Atreus: They're having a duel? Who do you think is going to win?

Kratos: This duel isn't about showing superior strength.

Atreus: Then, why?

Ryuu: To make things right.

Mimir: Fighting, there isn't better way to make things right for fighters.
