AN: SO! For those reading my Justice League Naruto crossover, I am not dead but I am stuck on that story right now. Just finished SAO and all of the books and well….I didn't know you could hate and love something at the sametime. So after reading a few fanfics too I have decided to write my version of the way SAO should have gone.
First things first, yes I am using the live stream idea brought about in a few other stories but I feel the best one is Worlds Apart by IF-HBomb and yes I have his permission to use the overall idea.
Second is I'm not a big fan of the fairy dance arc. It just seemed rushed and kinda silly especially if I have a livestream that people can view. SO there will be no fairy dance arc and I am going to have them beat all 100 floors of Aincrad.
Thirdly is that I hate, HATE, Asuna's mom in the light novels and season 2. So completely changed her character to suit the story better. Also Asuna will stay with Kirito. There will be no Black Cats guild thing either...I think. I may omit the enitery of the saint nicolas things as well. Still unsure yet on that.
Sword Art Online: The Legend of The Black Swordsman
Prolog
My grandfather once told me something after I quit kendo training with my sister, "Often one finds destiny where one hides from it." I didn't make stock into that saying, I am mean what ten year old would? But I guess in the end he was so hard and brutal on me because he knew I would need the skills to stay alive. He must have know I was meant for something else. But did he really think it would have been that?
"Kirito-kun!"
I turn around and find my wife standing next to me along with all of my friends. You might think we are going out for a night on the town...well you aren't wrong per say. A night on the town, hn...never really thought about it like that. "You guys ready," I asked; and with a nod of their heads my friends and the remaining one hundred members of the assault team grabbed their weapons.
Drawing both of my swords I prep for the final push, the final run. Today this all ends! "Before we begin I just want to say thanks to all of you," I say looking over every face of the assault team. I stop and linger on my friends, Klein, Agil, Silica, Lisbeth. And then she enters my view, my goddess, my life, my love, Asuna. "We have gotten this far, floor 95. We have all lost someone important to us. Friends, family, guild members. All because of this death game. But," I say raising my Elucidator high into the air, "we will not bow to him. We will fight until our last breath! For those who can't anymore and those who couldn't!"
Everyone began cheering and hollering while raising their weapons. Asuna grabbed my other hand, the one holding Dark Repulser, "for all those who can't and couldn't." She mimicked our saying, whispering into my ear. Turning I capture her lips once more, "we will get through this Asuna, that I promise. We will get out of this place and get married for real. We can even bring Yui with us. And we can have our second child too," I said whispering so the other players couldn't hear us. Yui, neither of us could ever forget the child like AI that brought us so much joy. She was at home on the 22nd floor waiting for us to come back to her, and just like I promised Yui we will.
"You better," Asuna growles before kissing me again. Turning to the door that stands before us, the entryway to the Ruby Palace first level, Ruby Palace Dungeon the sign above the door read. "Let's go!"
With my final cry the one hundred members of the assault team raced forward. Forward to destiny.
Real World Live Stream
"Kirito," a dark hair girl muttered while watching the one hundred players gear charge through the doorway. Her hair was cropped into a small pixie cut with bretts on each side, wearing a standard school uniform with a green ascot.
"Suguha," a taller dark haired woman who looked just like the girl, except her hair was pulled into a loose bun and she was wearing a green blouse with slacks, said while placing her hand on her shoulder. "Our Kirito and his Asuna will succeed. Promise." Without warning Suguha turned and hugged the older woman crying.
"She is just worried Midori-san," a brown haired, red skirt-suit wearing, stern faced woman said. She was standing with three others just off to the side.
Midori nodded, "I am too Yuuki-sama," she said while turning to face the other four sharing the VR stream with them.
"Midori-san," Yuuki said with a slight exasperated tone, "how many times have I asked you to call us by name?"
"I'm sorry Kyouko-san," Midori said with a light blush of embarrassment. "It's just hard to not be so formal around you is all." Yuuki Kyouko smirked and shook her head along with her husband, Shouzou wearing his normal brown suit and green tie, and their son ,Kouichirou wearing a blue version of his father's suit.
"We aren't the emperor's family or anything Mrs. Kirigaya," Kouichirou said with a smile. "Plus we are kinda related now right?"
All three of the attending parents smirked at that, of course Kirito would go and get married without a care in the world, Midori thought flashing to memories of their wedding they all saw. All she could do was nod. Over the last three years she has gotten to know the strict and stern Yuuki family and she was very grateful that was mostly an act for other wealthy families that travel in their circles.
"Plus Leafa we are talking about THE black swordsman and THE flash goddess. Plus they are backed by like one hundred players of the highest skill," a black haired boy wearing glasses and the standard male school uniform said with a fanboy like grin after having walked to her side while her mother comforted her. "There is no way they will lose!"
Suguha nodded but remained quite. You better not die Onii-chan, you either Ane-chan. Come home to us! All of us!
AN: I kinda like starting at the end or middle and telling the rest of the story in between. I find it drives people crazy wanting to know because it drives me crazy wanting to write it. So hope you all enjoy the double feature because chapter 1 is uploaded now.
