Disclaim: I do not owe any character of Sword Art Online, except my OCs.

Author's note: For those who read my fanfic before, I truly appreciate it. I'm sorry for deleting the old fiction but right now, I truly want to rewrite my fanfic. I only hope that I won't screw them up, though it always happens before. Finally, thank you for your time.

This is a work of fiction.


In a dark place, there was a boy who belonged to the Cait Sith race. Half of his face and his body were lying down on the ground. He seemed to be lost his consciousness. The boy was not tall. His height was around 166cm. His hair was a black mess and it was absolutely not a nice hair. It was like a bird's nest than a normal hair. On his head had two black ears which were used to prove he was a Cait Sith boy. All his cloths were black and if everyone did not look at carefully, he was easy to be mistake by one of the top players, specifically, the hero of Sword Art Online who was very famous. The difference between them, definitely, was the face. While Kirito was easy to make friend and had a lot of girls around him, no one wanted to make friend with this Cait Sith boy. His facial expression told them that. He did not have a good appearance and when people looked at it, they did not ever want to make friend with him. Also, he was wearing an eye-patch on his right eye. The reason was unknown but everyone thought that he wanted to make himself cool. But the truth was not it.

"..."

Slowly waking up, the Cait Sith boy barely stood up by his own will. One hand, he used it to be his fulcrum, so that he could be stood up easier. The other hand, he touched his head because of the headache. Though he finally stood up, he could not balance his body so he quickly fell back until his back touch a cold wall. Few seconds, he finally took back his consciousness and looked around him. From above was a dark empty space, showing there was no light could appear from the air. Not only the up side, everything around him was kind of dark but he still could see things. After going round and round, he recognized that he was staying in a circle place. On the ground was nothing special, just rocks and rocks. The circle wall had a little difference. It had some ancient words written on it and he could not understand what they meant. One other thing, the Cait Sith boy was staying in a closed place with no way out.

The Cait Sith boy waved his finger on the air. It was good that the personal window still worked. He went to the "Inventory", pointed to a sphere that provided the ability of returning back to the nearest safe zone. Without clearly reason, the sphere did not work. He also tried to contact the people he knew but there were no better results. He gave up after a few more try. After that, he tried to remember what happened. He remembered that he was trying to use a machine named "Soul Translation" to dive into a world called "Underworld". He joined in voluntarily, despite knowing the risk that he would lose all his memory, and for the worst part, his life. His mission was to find and rescue a man called "Kirigaya Kazuto". Nonetheless, he did not do it for that guy, but for two girls who he knew that he was very important to them, not mentioning that they all loved him. And one of those two girl was the one he had feeling for, too. Fortunately, he still remembered her name, "Asada Shino". But the good came with the bad, he did not remember anything about her, except her face and the moment he realized he rejected her feelings, despite that he had feeling for her, too. But he could not express his feeling because he remembered that he was going to die soon. He got a curse inside his body, a curse that accelerated his age. But in the end, he was still alive. Desperately, he knew it was too late to tell Shino when he knew she had fallen in love with Kazuto, who also was the boyfriend of Yuuki Asuna, a girl who had a very special bond with him. Whatever it was, he wished that Shino would one day had happiness without him. He moved on. Several weeks later, he had an emergency mission, and that mission took his life. He was dead once. Due to the exertion of his friends, he was saved and was recovered in a special treatment. He remembered that he was put inside a machine with liquid covered the whole body. His right arm and left leg, which was damaged badly and could not be connected normally, were slowly recovered, like a lizard recovered its tail when it was cut off. Several months later, he woke up but he was still weak and kept sleeping. Later, he gained back all of his conscious and sense. Then, he asked if he could dive in into virtual game due to the boredom and his doctors agreed since it was safe to do it. Or should they said he should stay in virtual world until he fully recovered. After that, he went from Gun Gale Online to Alfheim Online, slept and ate in those world. But he always tried to avoid from Shino and Asuna. Then one day, he learned that Kazuto was trapped in Underworld. Utterly, he requested to use Soul Translation and dove into that world, but he was failed and the last thing he remembered, was his body slowly faded away.

After a while, he investigate the placed he was trapped in. He checked what he was carrying. His main sword, a black, normal and light weight sword, was still on his right belly. When he checked around, he saw his magic bow and gun was closed to them, and the last thing is, a bag full of his money. All of them was made in and from Alfheim Online. He then checked his bow. It was made from a branch of Yggdrasil, the world tree in Alfheim Online, and in Norse Mythology. It was still in good condition. As for his gun, or a pistol, had lid blue light running around it. The main color was black. The grip was customized for easy handling. It had no clip and mainly use his mana for ammo. As this moment, he realized that he did not see the HP bar, standing for Health Point and MP bar, standing for Mana Point. They were nowhere to see. He tried to move his finger on the air to open the virtual window, but nothing happened. While he did not know what he should do next and how to escape this place, suddenly, the room was light up by many blue fires floating on the air. In the middle of the room appeared a portal gate. Although he did not understand what was happening, he realized he had no other choice. Staying was not a good idea. He stepped through the portal gate without knowing what was waiting him ahead. After he passed through the portal gate, what he saw was a hot, red space. White smokes were floating in the air and the hot deadly magma slowly was flowing behind him. If he was careless a little, he would fell into the magma. Thankfully, he was just near the edge. He also saw a lot of rocks in many sizes on the ground. Having a look around him, he wondered if he was staying in a big, giant side floating rock. Those rocks standing around were rough but they were quite easy to claim, more than that, they made a good covers if he wanted to hide behind them and shot the enemy from afar.

One other thing, the Cait Sith boy felt very hot and he could feel sweats were running on his entire body. It was the reason he never like every place that had high temperature, such as desert and volcano. And he was definitely staying in a volcano. He thought that it seemed he had to worry not only the enemy but also the environment, in detail, the temperature. However, the feeling of sweats running on his body was never good. It made him more and more uncomfortable. Speak to the devil, when he did not know what kind of enemy he would encounter, he heard something was coming. It came from the above, through the big hole above him. Its two big wings swung on the air strongly. When it landed, he realized it is a red dragon and its size was bigger than him many times. It seemed that he was staying in its nest. He hid behind the cover and tried to approach the dragon in a safe distance. Slowly and carefully moving cover to cover, he finally could see it clearly. Its claws were sharp enough to tear its prey apart with no hard and the mouth was full of teeth. However, due to its big size, the dragon seemed to be slow. Although the wings were big, they did not help the dragon move faster. The way it landed and flied proved that the Cait Sith boy had the advantage of speed and mobility. But they weren't enough. The bigger the enemy, the harder they fell down. Not mentioning that he might be in another world that was not Alfheim Online or Gun Gale Online, and that meant he would not use all his skills or anything the games had. But whining would not do him any good. Scouting more carefully, the Cait Sith boy decided if he had to fight, he should take care of those wings first. But there was something got his notice. He did not know what words he should use to describe. He saw something like crystals, or bones, or some sort like that, spreading and attaching on the back of the dragon and they were not big. Feeling suspicious and was not so sure, he still focused and looked at the back of the dragon. His black brown left eye changed to green afterwards. Although the whole body of the dragon was white which meant it was invulnerable, those bone things on the back of the dragon were red, which meant they were its weakness. Fortunately, two big wings were yellow which meant they were vulnerable. It was a good sign. The Cait Sith thought that even he was not in a game or whatever it was, his skills and abilities might stay the same.

After thinking carefully, he decided to attack the back of the dragon first. He then drew his bow from his back and pulled the string, afterwards, a white arrow appeared on the bow, aiming to the back of the dragon. In order to make the shot stronger, the Cait Sith boy charged the arrow, which made it bigger and a wind aura appeared, cycling around him. He released the string and the arrow flied straight to the dragon.

A sound of a crack bones shouted when the arrow broke one part of the thing on the back of the dragon. It roared painfully and quickly stood up and gush a big flame to the position of the attacker. The flame was strong enough to melt the rock. Fortunately, the Cait Sith boy quickly moved to another position so the flame could not reach him. However, it seemed the flame spread widely so his shirt was caught on fire. Meanwhile, the dragon was searching who attacked it. He kept his stealth tactics. He charged arrows when he was behind a cover, shot it and moved to another cover while the dragon kept searching him blindly.

After taking enough damage, the fire dragon flied, floating on the air and gush a big flame, burning everything on ground. The flame was so big that no creature could survive it. Suddenly, its mouth was shut unwillingly and there was no other one but the Cait Sith boy. While the fire dragon was releasing its deadly flame, he raised his four black elf wings, flied to the blind point of the dragon and changed his bow to his grey sword. Afterwards, he flied to the dragon's head and stabbed right to its right eye. This attack also stopped the flame of the dragon. Shaking its head to drop the attacker, the dragon succeeded. Opening its mouth, it flied to him and tried to bite him but he quickly flied away.

Although the dragon was big, it moved slower than the Cait Sith boy and it made him hard to be bitten. But it did not mean he should be careless. He kept focusing on attacking weak points. The problem was when the dragon was flying. It showed no weakness in its movements so it was really hard for him to get close to the dragon. The dragon chased after him over and over. However, because the dragon's right eye was wounded so it could not have a good view in its right and the Cait Sith boy did not let this chance move away. After he realized the chance had come, he flied to the right side of the dragon, right into its blind point. He grabbed its right wing, aimed to the weakest point on it and slashed, cut off one wing. Losing the balance and being hurt, the dragon roared painfully and angrily. It turned its back to a rock wall in order to smash the attacker. It successfully smashed to the wall but it also was its deadly mistake.

The Cait Sith boy dropped himself off the back of the dragon but he quickly gained his balance and aimed to the remained wing. The dragon, due to losing one wing and unable to defend itself after the smash, it fell. However, it still could resist. It swung its tail which was like a big mace to the Cait Sith boy. Dodging it, the he cut off the tail. The dragon roared and used it claws to stick to the rock surface and gush its flame. Due to the close distance, he had no choice but to head forward. He quickly turned his body in order not to get the direct hit. Thanks to his quick action, the flame once again only burned his coat and he stabbed he remain wing. He grabbed the grip of the sword by two hands and used all his strength to cut off the wing successfully. After that, the dragon was fallen and where it dropped was the hot deadly magma.

Landing on the safe point on the ground, the Cait Sith boy breathed heavily while he was looking at the dragon slowly sank to the magma. The battle ended here. It was not an easily fight, though. If the battle was last longer, he might lose whether being eaten or burned alive. After the dragon totally disappeared, the Cait Sith boy saw something like a fire ball glowing on the air, right to the place the dragon was sinking. Afterwards, he pointed his hand to the fire ball. The ball suddenly flied to him. After it touched his hand, it changed to another appearance, becoming a red one-handed sword. It wasn't a nice and well-forged sword. The blade was very blunt so he wondered if he could cut anything by using it. But when he tried to slash strongly, suddenly, a fire appeared from the sword, running straight and burned the ground strongly. He then got the idea. This sword was not used to cut. Although it was very blunt, its fire magic power was its strength. However, magic was not his strength. Nevertheless, it was still a good reward.

When he did not know what to do next, he found a portal gate on a higher ground, far from his standing. Suddenly, the ground shook strongly and it started breaking and falling apart. Not thinking anymore, the Cait Sith boy started running. Because the placed was collapsing and rocks were falling from above, he could not risk of flying so he could run on foot but it was not an easy race. The rocks, if not falling on his head, they became obstacles that prevented him to get to the portal gate. Despite that, he ran as fast as possible. He jumped and slide rocks over and over. When he got near, the ground behind him was totally disappeared. The final road was a slope but he still could manage to run on it. When he was near the top, he quickly jumped. Successfully, he managed to grab the edge. Suddenly, one arm of his slipped away and if he did not react quickly, he would fall right into the magma. Trying to calm, he slowly climbed up. It was hard, too. When he finally climbed up, he himself could not believe he could make it. He guessed it might be his punishment because of underestimating his newest sword. Whatever it took, he finally survived. However, comparing to those dungeon he was in, it was quite easy to him. He thought, it might be just a beginning.
