Sugu was outside practicing with her sword for an upcoming tournament. She was extremely skilled and much better than all the other students her age, but her nerves pushed her to practice more than necessary. Kazuto was always telling her to relax and not to work too hard, but it wasn't in her nature to be so laid-back like her big brother/cousin. Speaking of Kirito, where was he? Sugu decided she had done enough practicing for the day and went inside for a snack and to find Kazuto.

Sugu was outside practicing and nobody else was home. All of Kazuto's friends were busy today, so no one was logged on, as far as he knew. Hoping his aunt wouldn't come home early and Sugu would be occupied for a while longer, Kazuto pulled up the YouTube video and put on the pair of sunglasses he found laying around in his room a few days ago. He started the video and began to tap his foot to the beat. Soon he was full-out dancing in his room to the popular Korean song. "Mother Father Gentleman" Kazuto imitated the simple dance from the music video he had seen a few times before. Why he was doing this, he had no idea, but it was fun.

Sugu took a bite out of her bread and headed upstairs to see Kazuto. When she reached the top of the stairs, she noticed music coming from Kazuto's bedroom. "What is he listening to?" She wondered. Her brother had never been a big fan of any music, especially the kind you would play loud at a party. "Kazuto?" she knocked on his door. No answer. "Big Brother?" Still nothing. "What are you doing? Let me in!" she demanded. Sugu rolled her eyes and opened the door herself. "Kazuto-" What she saw was... indescribable.

Kazuto was just at the last chorus of the song when Sugu entered his room. He froze for a minute before taking off the sunglasses and throwing them across the room and scurrying to his computer to turn off the music. Once it was off, he turned around and smiled nervously at his little sister. "H-hi, Sugu! Hehehe... How was sword practice?" he tried to distract her.
"I saw what you were doing. I just don't know what it was. Were you-"
"I wasn't doing anything!"
"-dancing?"
"That's crazy!"
"Kazuto, can you dance?"
"I don't dance!"
Sugu stared Kazuto down, waiting for him to break. Finally, he did. "Fine! Yes! I was... dancing. But it was just for fun! It's a good song! I was joking around! DON'T TELL ANYONE." Sugu thought about it for a moment. She saw a great opportunity for blackmail. "Hm... What's in it for me?" "Huh? What's in it for you? Nothing! You won't tell anyone out of the goodness of your heart!" Kazuto argued. "Oh really? Because I think Asuna would love to hear about this. Maybe Silica and Lisbeth too! Oh yes, and Klien..." Sugu threatened. "Okay, okay! I'll... do your house chores for a week!" Kazuto offered. "A month," Sugu countered. "What?! No! Two weeks!" Kazuto tried again. "Three," Sugu crossed her arms. "No way," Kazuto refused. "Let's see... I'll just text the girls-" "Alright! Stop! Ugh. I'll do your house chores for three weeks. Okay? Don't tell anyone. Please?" Kazuto surrendered. "Deal," Sugu nodded. She put her hand out and Kazuto shook it. "Want a snack?" Sugu offered. "Ooh, yes please!" "You should go get something," Sugu laughed before running down the stairs with Kazuto chasing after her.
