How long?

Pais-

I started shivering as we got farther up the mountain. I told Yuki I wanted to go as far as I could with her so she wouldn't be lonely but I couldn't take this cold anymore and she noticed.

"You should head down where it is a little warmer Pais-chan."

I said and nodded. "Okay Yuki-san. Please be careful."

She smiled. "You too." She started walking up the mountain and when I couldn't see her anymore I started walking down the mountain where it was slightly warmer

I started making a small camp to wait for Yuki when a flash of something passes past my side fast. I turn in a circle taking out my katana ready to fight whatever it was. When I soon was hugged from behind. I quickly started to struggle trying to get free but the person was strong.

"Paisley, calm down."

I stopped struggling and frowned."Natian!?"

"Hello, Pais." He let go of me and I turned around to face him shocked.

"What are you doing here? How.." He cut me off.

"I decided after all this time to find you. Seeing you like that in real life I couldn't take anymore."

"What do you mean?" I asked confused. I didn't know much about what happened to me in the real world after being here for so long. No one really did. And as each day passed I forgot more about my life there.

"You've been in a coma like state for five years." He said sadly.

"What?" I sat down quickly. Five years? I know I've been here for three but five. And in a coma like state.

"Pais?" He crouched down in front of me concerned.

"I thought i've only been here for three years. I mean that's a long time but still... Five years and in a coma?"

"Yes. Everyone who has played this game has been put into a coma."

I quickly stood up, surprising him and making him fall backwards. " and you decided to come into the game?!"

He sat up. "I wanted to find you. And I've only logged on two times."

"Promise me not to log in a third time."

" I just won't log out this time."

"No you can't do that. It will automatically log you after so long."

He sighed. "I can't stand seeing you just lay there lifeless anymore."

I sat down next to him."But I can't stand to let you throw your life away in this game like I did. I never had a life to live. You do. Go back and start a new life. I'm trying my best to get out of here but I can't be a 100% sure that it will work. "

He sighed and didn't answer me. "I will stay logged in till your friend come back or till I'm forced to log out." He got up and made a fire not saying another word.

I frowned but accepted it. I missed him and waited for Yuki with him.
