New chapter is here! PLEASE let me know if it's rubbish like the last chapter 2 I posted but I'm so glad I'm actually properly doing this instead of leaving you guys with empty promises, enjoy!

The girls weren't evil. They hadn't gone insane. There was no corrupt organisation tied to them.

It was just Kirito.

That was the reasoning behind all of the girls, the motive on why they were meeting up in what could have easily been called a secret lair in the middle of the night. Lisbeth had called them to come. She had a plan.

It had been four days since Asuna had kicked them out and all of them were fuelled with jealously and anger. They were ready to do something stupid. As the last of them sleepily wandered in, Lisbeth began to speak.

"Kirito loves Asuna. If by some miracle…and I really mean a miracle…if he somehow stopped having feelings for her that would still create problems for us", she paused and looked at them, "We can't all have him."

"Is that what we came all this way to hear?" Lyfa frowned, "I mean…it's pretty obvious."

"Yeah and didn't we say we'd let him choose?" Silica asked wide eyed.

Lisbeth sighed, "It wouldn't be right to leave it up to him. He's made too many mistakes. Plus, he spends most of his real life time with Lyfa near so-"

"Hey are you tryna say us living together makes things easier!"

"I'm just saying it might end up a little biased towards some people", Lisbeth sat down round the stone table in the middle of the cave, "I've come up with a fair way of deciding who is worthy of his affection."

"Why does it even matter?" Sachi muttered, "It's not like Asuna's going anywhere."

Lisbeth smiled, "My plan includes Asuna."

Silica yawned, "How?"

The pink haired girl smiled even more, "What if we had a little…competition? All of us and Asuna against each other in a fight for Kirito."

Lyfa shot up, "What! How does that work?"

Sachi stared into the distance confused, "You're saying we're using violence to get love?"

Lisbeth nodded, "What could go wrong?"

"But…Asuna would never agree to that", Silica turned to her friends, "Neither would Kirito."

That was when Lisbeth's grin looked almost evil, "What if they didn't have a choice?"

"Urgh Lis can you get to the point! All this cliff-hanger nonsense is way too complicated for me to process at this time of night", Lyfa slumped down in her chair.

"Fine. Okay…you know how my brothers really into computers?" When they all nodded she continued, "Well…he's managed to hack the SAO system and-"

"HE HACKED THE WHAT!" Sachi yelled then calmed when she saw her three friends looking at her like she was some serial killer with a knife, "Sorry but isn't that kinda…I donnu, illegal!"

"Well yeah but…what choice do we have?"

"Oh I don't know, not screw with something that could send us to prison!"

"It's for Kirito!" Lisbeth shouted like that was the only explanation needed, "Anyway…he played around with the databases and managed to set up a Vs match on level 52."

"Vs match…is that life threatening?"

"No! SAO's past that now. Look, I have this", she pulled out a small box with a bright red button, "When I press this it will clear the whole of floor 52 and transport us and Asuna there."

"What, so we can fight against the strongest female in the whole game? Great plan Lisb-"

"Just hear me out!" she shouted and started talking quicker so she wouldn't be interrupted again, "My brothers done more than just hack the system. He can play around with our inventories too", when they looked at her confused she sighed, "So if I press this button we all go into the game with a full set of armour and rare, high powered weapons and Asuna's left with a basic kit to even out the odds!"

Judging by her friends thoughtful faces, she guessed her idea was finally getting through to them. There were glints of hope in each of the girl's eyes. They'd started to believe there was a chance at getting something that before all this they'd never been able to touch. There was only one major flaw.

Sachi spoke, "Say this all works. We fight against each other. One of us wins. Then what? I mean, we can't force Kirito to go with the victor. He'd probably just be pissed we brought Asuna to fight and go home with her…everything would just go back to how it is now."

That was the one thing they couldn't change. Kirito's free will. No matter how much they dabbled in the SAO structure or their own determination they couldn't change what Kirito wanted. And he wanted Asuna.

"There's one more catch", Lisbeth said quietly, "One more thing my brother was able to do. It took a while but…he's made it so whoever wins will immediately become Kirito's wife."

All of the girls went very, very quiet. Minutes passed before they all whispered in unison.

"How?"

"It…it would just be in SAO. My brother…he can change the status on what one player is to another. He can make one of us his wife instead of Asuna."

"What if he hates us afterwards?"

Lisbeth paused before answering, "I have an idea…its risky, might not even work. If we aggravate her enough, Asuna might agree to the fighting terms to try to show us up. If we get her to say Kirito will give us a chance if one of us wins it might, I don't know, make him make an effort. I know it's stupid but it's the only plan I've got", she got up from her seat and asked the all-important deciding question, "Are you guys in?"

Silica grinned, "Can I bring Pina?"

"Of course."

"Then it sounds fun. I mean at least I'll be able to piss off Asuna a bit!"

Lisbeth laughed, "Great. Lyfa?"

"Hmm…I am meant to be talking to my psychiatrist when I start thinking about Kirito like this…but you know what screw it! Let's do this."

"Yay! Sachi?"

Sachi looked down, "We could get thrown in jail for messing around with this."

"But just think of Auna's face!"

That seemed to do the trick. After a minutes thought Sachi gave in, "Okay."

They looked round at each other, slowly realising what they had just agreed on.

"Okay, now what?"

Lisbeth stared at the button in her now shaky hands, "I guess there's only one thing left to do, "You all ready?"

They nodded.

"Okay…here we go", she shut her eyes tight and slammed her hand down on the button.

Everything turned dark.
