{A/N}: Quick little thing I made when texting my friends. They loved it (and hated me) and said they wanted me to put it up. This is of course a one page story. Sorry about the feels.
Asuna's boots clapped against the cold stone floor of the hospital. Her left hand holding the strap to her purse showing off her wedding ring. Turning the corner she stopped dead in front of one of the patients rooms. The door was labeled 'Kirito (Kazuto Kirigaya)'.
The long exposure to the nervegear and amusphere did have it's effects. He was dying of cancer, a new type that sprang up around the 12th anniversary of the SAO incident. Kirito had aged, but the cancer still had come to early of an age.
Stepping inside Asuna saw the love of her life lying in the hospital bed. Breathing slowly. The machine monitoring is heartbeat echoed through the silence.
It took a moment, but Kirito registered Asuna being in the room.
"Hey." He called out.
"Hey." She said back, both struggled for words in this situation and Asuna was struggling to fight back tears. "S-so how much time do you have, you think?"
Kirito looked over and gave a weak grin. "Not much. Minutes, hours, a day. I tried so hard Asuna to save so many people from so many madmen. Akihiko, your fiancé, Laughing Coffin. I did it, but I guess you were right. I should have stopped. I could handle it, yet, I won't even get the chance to say goodbye to Yui."
Asuna felt her eyes lose their strength. She had begun to bawl, "It'll be ok Kirito! We will save you into the ALO database! You can spend time with Yui all the time! You will be just like Kayaba!"
"Asuna...you know I can't. We don't even know how he did it."
"Yeah..." The silence returned...it was almost deafening.
"Asuna?"
"Y-yes?"
"I love you. Understand that. Tell everyone else I love them too. Tell Sinon I hope she fares well. Tell them I was never Kirito the Hero. I was just a stupid kid who got himself in a situation that changed his life forever."
"I will. But why don't you do it yourself, you know? I can get them over here!" Asuna forced a smile, she saw Kirito turn towards her. His eyes telling the story.
"Asuna. I'm leaving now. Just like our SAO avatars did, just like when I went to GGO, and when I went to UW. Im leaving, for good this time. If you need anyone to talk to. Remember we have friends, of course you might want to go to the wisest. Chocolate." Asuna laughed at the old nickname they had given Agiel.
"Right, i'll remember that."
"Goodbye, Asuna," Kirito looked at the ceiling now lost in his own world, "goodbye Sugu, Agil, Klein, Yui, Silica, Lisbeth, Seijirou, Alice, Aki Natsuki and goodbye Mom. Ill finally get to meet my parents...I guess." Kirito closed his eyes and breathed out his last breath. The black swordsman was no more. The man who had saved so many from things people never believed would happen. The famous Kirito. Dual swordsman, fastest character in any game, the BOB tournament winner. Beater of Sao. He was gone and nothing anyone could try would bring him back. The best Asuna could do...was sit and cry...
{A/N}: The "Mr Thunder Chocolate" thing was a joke on SAO abridged. I really hope you enjoyed. My other story for RWBY is going to get another chapter soon, so sorry for the wait.
