Please don't hate me me. I have decided that Kirito would be the bad guy in this book. This is AU and will be quite fun to write.

KIRITO'S POV

Look at those weaklings down there. It has only been a couple of hours since they learned the truth and they have already started giving up. I thought to myself amused wanting badly to go down into the chaos and wreak havoc. But I was on a mission and fun would have to wait.

Now back to business. Which one would be a good apprentice. Maybe that cloaked girl or that red haired man I met earlier. What was his name? Ah yes, Klein. He would be fun to convert and take under my wing. He was strong and a fast learner but too kind and soft. I needed someone else. Not that orange spiky haired punk. He was too loud and obnoxious. I take advantage of those types, not train them.

I sighed. "There just isn't anyone that fits the bill these days. I wish there was someone like that giant fellow Agil I killed earlier. But he would need to be smarter and love a good murder." I mumbled to myself completely sure my vantage point overlooking the town was undetected.

I slowly got up and said to myself "Well I guess no one is going to meet my expectations on the first day. I might as well wreak some havoc.

I jumped down from my vantage point and landed with a roll. Minimizing the fall damage and walked over to where a bunch of players who were preparing to head to the next town.
"Hurry up. We need to arrive at the town before sundown. More mobs will spawn at night and I will not lose anyone on this journey." A man with blue hair and copper armor yelled.
I quickly mixed in with the crowd and we set off for the next town. I hated the game's safety zone in towns which made it impossible to kill someone in a town. So I waited till we were far enough away from the town to make my move. So that if anyone tried to escape they would not be able to call for reinforcements.

It took about ten minutes for the party to get to the place I wanted to start my plan. Once we arrived I equipped my sword and sent it into the person in front of me. It went in smoothly and when I pulled it out he burst into little crystals. Those around me jumped in shock and surprise, most not knowing what happened. I then activated my skill I worked hard to earn in the beta.

It was called spinning slash which did massive damage to everything around me but has a long recharge that skill I took out five more players. Only nine left not including their blue haired leader. Most of the players by now have realized what was happening and took out their swords and held them at me. Pitiful really. They were only level three and four by the looks of it and I was a level ten. They had no hope.

Their leader then stepped in front of me with his large longsword and a shield and said to the men "Run, I will handle this here. You guys get to the safety of the town."

Most did what he said but two of them stayed behind. I noticed that the orange haired punk was among them.

The leader will be the only one who might be a problem. I thought to myself. Relishing the battle that was about to happen. Without a second thought, I charged and the battle began.

It was brilliant, for every attack I made, he blocked and then countered with a stroke of his own. Sure there were other players trying to help, but they just got in the way more than anything. I decided to finish of the two brats so I could fully enjoy this fight. I spun and activated my skill called lunge and plunged my sword through the first players chest.

I then took the sword out as that player shattered into a million pieces and swung my sword in a over head chop skill at the orange haired punk. He tried to dodge but to no avail. As my sword sank through his shoulder and ripped of his arm. I then went for a side ways strike skill aiming for his legs.

But as I cut through one of his legs I noticed a sword coming straight at me. I cancelled my skill half way through and turned and blocked the blue haired man's sword. I retreated a few paces to regain my breath and ready my skills.

The orange haired punk screamed out in agony and said "Diavel, help me it hurts."
The blue haired man whose name was diavel said "Its going to be alright Kibaou. We are going to survive."
Seeing this exchange, I had a devilishly great idea. I charged at Diavel and when he blocked my stroke, I turned and slashed my sword at Kibaou's neck. His body exploded in a shower of crystals.

The only thing that remained was kibaou's head. I then stood back and watched Diavel's misery and pain with pure joy. And when I felt it had been long enough I sunk my sword through Kibaou's dead skull.

I then turned to diavel and said "Enjoy this game. I see much more death in your future." And with that I turned and left. Leaving the crying man who was grasping at the crystals that were once his friend.

I will enjoy making that one my puppet. Not my apprentice, but a puppet with which I could toy with and use to create unrivaled hatred. I thought to myself, my smile as big and sinister as it could be. When the world was like this, I could enjoy the quiet moments of pain and suffering.

Now back to town to find my apprentice. I thought with some excitement at the thought of a second person to help slaughter the weak. This was going to be a great game.

thanks for reading. I hope you liked this dark SAO. I probably wont update this as much as the others but it is something to help prevent writers block.
