"Aniki? What are you doing in the computer and why are you still up?" an eight year-old Azukaia demanded her older brother in the middle of the night, whose attention is still in his computer.

"I could ask you the same, imouto-chan," Satuko mumbled, ignoring his sister who is now glaring daggers at him. Sure, it was amusing but he needs to tend to his 'game'. Well, he's not in a rush to such circumstance and would stay up late, but he's really excited to finish it.

"Eh? Aniki, I will put a virus in your very, personal and beloved computer before you know it if you don't hurry up getting to bed now," Azukaia threatened her brother, knowing well that he can't defy her orders. What she says she will, she'll do it.

"Okay,okay! Just give me te---"

Before he can even finish his sentence, his younger sister glared at him with one eyebrow raised and hands on her waist. He gulped. At such young age, his sister is known to be a computer expert and hacker in the family. She's also sneaky and with her so-called innocent look, anybody wouldn't believe of the things she has done. A prodigy, like him. Well, maybe it just runs in the family. He loves his one and only sister, but sometimes he can't understand her.

"Aniki, go to your bed now," she commanded him. Satuko just sighed before shutting his computer down and rose from his chair.

"Hai, oka-san," he saluted jokingly and ruffled his sister's hair before going to his bed, ignoring her glaring eyes again.

Satuko knew it from the moment she was born. A weird baby actually. She never cried and at first his parents thought that she is dead. Well, she only cries when she needs something, which made things easier for the ones that are taking care of her. Her heterochromatic eyes, stony and impassive expression, her oh-so absolute orders and her intelligence. Satuko knew that his sister is special from the very start. But she'd always be his little sister, no matter what.

Satuko immediately threw off his blankets and shut the alarm off. Unlike his sister, he was always a morning and a very normal person. When slept late, wakes up late. When sleeps early, wakes up early. Azukaia is a very different case. She's more of a nocturnal person. She's smart compared to the other normal kids, but she's extremely lazy and always sleepy during the day. Azukaia is more active and awake at night, which sometimes makes Satuko weird out. But when she's sleepy, even the time and temperature doesn't matter to her and sleeps right away. Many complaints are being received from her school because she always sleeps during her morning classes. Well sometimes, she doesn't. Her grades aren't the issue, because she's the leading top notched position in her school. Satuko chuckled. Always in the 1st place. She sleeps, but passes every single test, with perfect and straight A's. It's normal for her high intelligence but then, she's only eight.

Satuko sometimes wonder if her sister is really a girl. First of all, her sister loves sports especially shogi and basketball. According to the school, her level in skills and brain during sports is for an expert already. That can't be helped, after all he always see Azukaia practicing almost everything. She also loves leading and being superior to others. And the most weirdest thing of all, Satuko never saw his sister handle or take an interest to girly things. For example, other girls would like some dolls, frilly dresses and girly bags while her sister prefer books, online action games and 'cool' bags. Maybe that's why her and Satuko always get along with each other. Azukaia absolutely hates makeup,jewelry and other 'too girly stuffs', as his sister would refer. Sometimes Satuko and his sister would wear matching shirts, and you would always see them gaming in the entertainment room. If not reading, Azukaia would most likely be sleeping if not studying or practicing over something.

The only jewelry that she wore is a ruby pendant necklace that Satuko gave Azukaia for her 5th birthday. He knows she is responsible enough to take care of it. He also wore the same pendant, but the style is more of a 'boyish' way. She also hates her annoying hair, so that's why they're always on ponytail. You would never see her hair let down, even on special occasions. She's just to stubborn. Well, except for Satuko. He was always the one who keeps messing up with Azukaia's hair.

Satuko was the same as Azukaia when he was younger. But not as weird as her. He loves his little sister to death, and the two were inseparable.

Since Satuko is the firstborn male of the family, he would inherit the family business and Kawahara Incorporated. But he was never pressured since from the start, he loved gaming and always wonder how a game is being made, thus leading him into pursuing the path of being a game developer. Not yet, but he was planning on it. Satuko is 3 years older than Azukaia, and started creating a game since the start of the year. He knew that he's too young, but then again, he's a Kawahara. The owner of the dominating gaming company in Japan.

After eating his breakfast in bed which the maids prepared for him, he took his daily routine and opened his computer immediately, rushing to the unfinished game he was making. He sighed, relieved that Azukaia didn't put a virus in his computer.

He opened the on-process game and smiled as he finally chose a name for his game. He silently thanked Azukaia, who gave the best suggestion for the name.

Thus, he put his hands on the keyboard and started typing.

Rise of Legends Online

Are you sure of this name? If confirmed, this name will be permanent.

CONFIRM / DECLINE

Satuko clicked 'confirm' and opened it as he continued designing and making the game.

After a few minutes, Azukaia opened the door and entered the room, unannounced. Once she saw her brother with his face in the computer again, she glared at him. Satuko, who is now aware of the cold aura behind him turned around.

"Aniki..."

He sweat dropped as he ignored his sister's curious glance at the computer and back at him again with the demanding expression.

"Yes, imouto-chan?"

Azukaia crossed her arms in her chest with her usual grumpy expression, and Satuko chuckled because he finds her cute when she's angry.

" What are you doing in your computer for these past weeks since New Year? Answer me, that's an order,"

Satuko pinched his sister's cheeks and immediately explained things as he carried her to the entertainment room leaving his computer for a while, knowing that it will automatically shut down after ten minutes.
