(Sasagawa Kyoko) Ryouko's Point Of View

"Hey..! Kyoko-chan..! Wait up!" I heard Tsuna-kun shouted at me as our surroundings change. I looked back at him as he asked panting "Why leave Kirito.. Alone..?" "Don't you see..? He's a BEATER and a beater are Solo Players, meaning, he doesn't need us!" I replied and out of frustration I threw a bow skill at the tree. Poor Tree. Tsuna looked at me and said "If he's a beater, why did he followed us?" "He that wha-?" I questioned as I saw Kirito running near us from behind. I felt my blood boil and shoot him a bow skill. "Ryouko! Are you INSANE!? You might kill him!" Tsuna shouted at me, since we call each other by our true names when it's only us, while at others our codenames.

"Don't care couz he doesn't care!" I shoutedly replied and kept shooting at him. Tsuna-kun looked at me with the expression 'Great!-This-Isn't-Kyoko-I-Knew!-It's-Ryouko!'. I saw Kirito struggle as he did his best to dodge my attacks. I grinned my teeth and his my Bow, revealing my secondary weapon, a dagger. I charge over him and did a dagger skill Sneaky Kill. He dodge my attack but I got a hit when I used the skill Mislead. Tsuna-kun went at the middle and told me "Ryouko-chan! This isn't a time to fight things off! Plus, What if Kirito-kun used that tactic to protect us?" "Well, SCREW YOU KIRITO! I AIN'T FORGIVING YOU!" I shouted and pointed my pointing finger at Kirito. After that, I stubbornly walked away.

Mou! What's wrong with Kyoko-chan? This isn't like her! "She's lying, right..?" Kirito hasitately asked me. I looked at him and gave him a 'I-Don't-Know' expression. Kirito panicked a bit and told himself "Great.. What have I done? Stupid! Stupid!" "He-hey.. Kirito-kun, don't worry.. It isn't your fault that she's like that for the first time and all.. She'll forgive you soon, you'll see.." I encouraged and patted his shoulder. He looked at me with a faint smile and muttered "I hope so, Yoshi..".

~MONTHS AFTER.. AT MOONLIT BLACK CATS GUILD HOUSE~

"Kampai!" Everyone chorus and a clank of glasses were heard. This pass few weeks, Kyoko didn't even bug to talk to Kirito, had eye contact on him, touch him or maybe bump onto him, talk to him, et chetera, et chetera. "Aren't you going to forgive him, Kyoko-chan..?" I whispered at her as I saw one of our guild mates talk to Kirito. Kyoko shruggled and replied "I won't.. I have no idea why but I can't find myself forgiving him, Tsuna-kun.." "Why not talk about it, Ryouko-san..?" one girl suggested. We looked up as I heard Kyoko say "If you think I'll do that, Sachi, I'd rather fight a 100 Floor Boss and log out fast.." "As cold to Kirito-san as always.." Sachi muttered and let out a heavy sigh.

Ever since Kirito asked me to help and join Sachi's guild with Kyoko, Sachi helped Kirito make Kyoko-chan reconsider about her 'I ain't forgiving you' idea. Kyoko always knew Sachi would do that. Here we are celebrating for the newly joined member, MEANING, me, Kyoko and Kirito (Plus helping them up of course). Out of blue, I saw Kirito often look at our direction, to Kyoko to be exact. I looked over Kyoko as she stood up and walk out. Sometimes I even wonder if she's Kyoko-chan that I know or she's evolving to a new leaf.

(Kirigaya Kazuto) Kirito's Point Of View

I saw Ryouko went out while Yoshi let her be. I secretly followed her. Despite the fact that I look like a complete idiot, I had no choice. Ryouko's the only girl I knew that I could rely on the most. If I could tell her my true name, I will. Moving on, Ryouko went to a certain forest and went on a rampage. She killed many level 10 - 15 monsters mercilessly. While at it, I heard her shout out "WHY CAN'T I FORGIVE YOU KIRITO!? WHY CAN'T I-! AARRGGGHHHHH!". Does that mean she can't find herself forgiving me..? Before I knew it, two spawn at her, one in front while one at her behind. I saw her focus were lock on to the front than the behind, she must've never noticed it.

After she defeated the decoy, she got stabbed by the real attacker. I heard her scream in pain, making me leave with no choice but to show myself and killed the beast. After the beast turned to a tiny bits of blue pentagon, I took glance at her. She was panting and her health began to dealt 1 HP at a time. I saw a green bubble around her HP. She got.. Poisoned..? "Ki..ri..to..?" I heard her mutter. I only looked at her as she continued "What..are..you..?" "Talk and you'll die! Wa-wait..!" I panickly said and took an antidote. I held it at her and pleaded or maybe ordered "Drink this..! Quick!" "N..no! I'll just use a HP po..potion.." she struggled to protest and took a healing potion. Unfortunately, her body disobeyed and in the end, she let go of the bottle.

"Quickly! There's no time to lose Ryouko! Just drink this already!" I quickly told her as she began to shake. The poison completely gotten into her, so as well to her real body! Shoot! What should I do!? And so, I forcefully made her drank the bottle, but she spit it out like she was rejecting it. Great, I'm losing myself right now and I got one last antidote. My mind went blank as I saw her HP were below 50.

Sawada Tsunayoshi's Point Of View

"I wonder where did those two went to..?" I muttered to myself as I went back and fort at the entrance of our guild's house. It had passed midnight but not a sight of those two around. After a few more hours I saw Kyoko-chan running towards me. She gave me a hug and cried "Tsuna-kun! Thank God Tsuna-kun!" "What's wrong? What happened?" I questioned as Kirito walked away with his bangs over his eyes. Before he got in, Kyoko rushed over him and gave him a hug as well. To my surprise, Kirito blushed at Kyoko's sudden act. "Arigatou! Hontouni Arigatou Kirito-kun! I'm Sorry if I became so hard headed to you..! It's just that..!" Kyoko said and buried her face at his shoulders.

Kirito cares his fingertips at her head and said "You don't need to apologizes for I am one to blame.." "Kirito.." I muttered and later, I got off guard as Kyoko's body collapse, resulting to Kirito, catching her. After that, I looked at him and questioned "What happened..? Did you two got into a fight..?". After he heard me, he looked away embarrassed and replied "Let's just talk about that tomorrow, 'Kay Yoshi..?" "Fine.." I agreed in defeat and we went to bed and slept.
