What would you do if life were a video game? Set in the year 2022, Sword Art Online (SAO) is a Mass Multiplayer Virtual Online Roleplaying Game (MMVORG), where you put on a helmet, and the surroundings around you evolve into a video game world. Taylor is a small town girl, quiet and shy, who doesn’t interact with her friends in the real life much. Her only means of escape – is Sword Art Online, where she plays as a boy character as a beta-tester. Why? Boys typically play video games more than girls, and Taylor decided that people wouldn’t play much attention to her if she were a guy. But then, things go too far on the public launch of the game. The game creator not only removes Taylor’s mask as a girl, but he also removes the “logout” option, the player’s only means of escape from the real world. Things are real. To Taylor, SAO is exactly like the real world, and she has to learn to face her fears as she makes new friends. But what she fails to realize in time, the most important thing in the game. If your HP dies in SAO, your character dies in the game, thus, ending your life in the real world. And Taylor has to figure out, just how real that is.

It is 1730, the end of the golden age of piracy, and a little girl is found by Captain Edward Kenway. She is trained and raised as an Assassin. For many years she completes assassinations and missions under the alias as Matrix, Kenway's son. That is until her cover is blown by a common enemy, The Templars.

You all know the story of Keira, a girl who grew up in the Redmont Fiefdom. This is the story of her apprentice. Years after Keira's recovery, Halt suggests that she take an apprentice to stay sane and get back in shape. Keira agrees and goes to scout the nearby villages, including her fief HighCliff until she finds the perfect girl. Meet Jordan, a 15-year-old girl who lives in the Highcliff. She has a loving family and a bunch of great friends, but she throws that all away when she decides to leave home. She heads to the Meric Fiefdom and goes to live there under her aunt. She soon meets an uncanny woman who takes her back home. After staying with the woman for some time, she becomes apprenticed to her. Jordan, with the help of her mentor, learns just how important friends and family can be. *A/N:* ~The Cover was made by Sheppard56 (http://sheppard56.deviantart.com/art/Ranger-493477306.) and was edited by friend King_Scar! :3

Keira, a girl growing up in the Redmont fief, has always longed to be a Ranger's Apprentice. When she overhears a rumor that the local Ranger is in need of an Apprentice, Keira tells the Baron what she wants. After a long struggle, the Ranger steps in and decides to accept her, more out of pity than want or need . Gradually, however, the pair grow closer and can tolerate each other's company. This story will take them on many adventures together, so strap in or pull up a chair, get comfortable, turn on some music and prepare to go on the journey of your life. ((Original idea and RA characters belong to John Flannagan, author of the Ranger's Apprentice Series. I own Fury, Keira, Silean, and a few others.)) ________________________________________________________________ Almost 6 years after this Fan-Fiction began, I have decided to rewrite it, more for personal reasons than anything else. Since my life is significantly more busy than it used to be (becoming an adult will do that to you), it is going to take a very, very long time for me to re-write this. However, I am still going to try and re-write it. :) ________________________________________________________________ Sequel: http://www.wattpad.com/story/9836573-a-ranger%27s-apprentice-for-eternity-a-ranger%27s
