Note: Welcome to my first one-shot and maybe a Pilot of a full-fledged story of Sword Art Online. This story focuses on my OC. If enough people like it, I will make a full-fledged story of this One-Shot. So if you want a full pledge story, leave a review letting me know you want more. Also, before we get started on this chapter, I would like to thank Alvin D-Rod for helping me put this chapter together. So go check out his stories after you are finished reading this chapter.
Anyways, with no further ado, let's get started on this chapter.
Sword Art Online: The Devil Inside:
March 19, 2023:
The Laughing Coffin Guild, known to be the most dangerous guild in SAO. They kill players for a sport, even little kids. However, on March 19, The Laughing Coffin Guild would make a huge mistake that would almost cost them the guild.
Seven members of the Laughing Coffin had a seven-year-old girl cornered. The little girl had long brown hair and brown hair, and she was scared out of her life. One member, named Xaxes, was closing in on the girl, and the others laughed, knowing that Xaxes would kill her, all but one member.
"Xaxes, that's enough! She gave us everything she owns; we don't need to kill her!" Said one member of the guild. This young man has brown hair and brown eyes. He is 5'7 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds.
"No, we don't, but I want to," said Xaxes as he approached the girl and began to draw out his blade.
"No! She's just a little girl; we don't have to kill her!" Shouted Kyler as he grabs hold of Xaxes, trying to prevent him from killing the girl.
"UNHAND ME!" Shouted Xaxes and punches Kyler away from him, making him fall to the ground.
"I don't give a shit if she is a kid or not. She chose to put on the nerve girl the day we got sealed in here. Therefore, SHE MUST DIE!" Shouted Xaxes.
"How was she supposed to know that we were going to be sealed in this game? None of us did. Her parents must be worried sick about her; you really want to cut her life short?!" Shouted Kyler.
"Honestly, Kyler, we're disappointed; you should know who we are by now. You've been with us for how long now?" Asked a member named Yaxcom.
"Why should we even care about killing a player." Said a member names Axialtom
"I... I only joined you guys because you forced me to. And that doesn't mean I agree with your methods. We don't have to kill other players to get loot. Us players should be working together to get out of this game, not killing each other!" Shouted Kyler.
"And where is the fun in that?" Asked a member named Qwatum.
"Killing players is much more satisfying than trying to clear a dungeon," said a member named Alumater.
"Yeah, and killing kids is even more satisfying," said a member named Mobsterer.
Kyler is seen beginning to get angry as he was filling his hands with the dirt he was lying on.
"You bastards!" Said Kyler.
"Now, just sit there like a good little boy and let me kill the little bitch," said Xaxes as he takes out his sword and walks towards the little girl, who was now balling her eyes out.
"No, please, don't!" Said the little girl.
Kyler couldn't just lay there and let the little girl die. To Hell with his life; this girl's life was more important. Seeing Xaxes was going to kill the little girl, he soon for angry, his eyes turned red, he quickly gets back up, takes out his sword, rushes towards Xaxes, and stabs him in the back the upper chest, right through the heart. The little girl and other members of the Laughing Coffin were shocked at what they just saw; even Xaxes was shocked when he realized that Kyler killed him.
"Imposs-"
Before Xaxes could finish, his Avatar is suddenly deleted, leaving the little girl and other members of The Guild shocked.
We see then see Kyler standing there, with his hair covering his eyes.
"If you value your life, get out of here, told Kyler to the little girl, the little girl nods, and quickly runs away.
"You- you idiot! What have you done?!" Asked Axialtom.
"You... You just killed Xaxes!" Said Qwatum.
Kyler began to slowly grin, "Oh, I'm sorry, I must have misheard you," his voice was beginning to sound sadistic, "I could have sworn that you said you didn't care if a player dies. But it seems that you seem to care that Xaxes is dead," the other members were starting to get angry, "And since he is dead in this world, that means he's now dead in the real world, just like all those other innocent players that you casually struck down," said Kyler, "And yet, you never really cared about that until now."
"YOU BASTARD!" Shouted Yaxcom.
Yaxcom takes out his sword and runs towards Kyler to kill him.
No, wait!" Shouted Axialtom.
Kyler sees this and quickly swims his blade, cutting Yaxcom's head clean off. The other members were shocked at this and saw that Kyler was smiling sadistically, and his eyes were blood red.
"What the Hell? What the Hell has happened to you?!" Asked Qwatum.
"I guess you can say the shock of Xaxes's murder... Gave me life. But you know what, I think Kyler is a boring name to have. I'm thinking of changing it; mind helping me with a name? Xaxes and Yaxcom already helped me by giving me the first letters of their names; it's only right you do the same," said Kyler in a sadistic voice.
"You sick bastard!" Shouted Alumater as he and the other members took out their weapons.
Kyler laughs sadistically, "Oh, what's this? You guys are starting to act human again for the first time since we got stuck in this Hell?! Well, I think it's a bit too late for that! Now, if you ladies are done pissing yourselves, let's dance!" Said Kyler, smiling sadistically.
November 24th, 2024:
On November 24, 2024, Kirito and Asuna were on their second week on their honeymoon, and they are seen starting to wake up. Kirito was slowly waking up as he sees his beautiful wife was sleeping on top of him.
"Hey, good morning," said Kirito.
"Morning," Asuna speaks back to her husband.
"So, what is the plan for today?" Asked Kirito, rubbing Asuna's bareback.
"I really don't know, but we should do something fun." Asuna tells Kirito with a warm tone.
"I can think of something," said Kirito.
Before Asuna could ask Kirito what he had in mind, they suddenly got a notification, a message from their inbox. Kirito opens the message for Asuna to see it as well. They open the letter to see who it is.
The Letter Read:
Good morning Kirito and Asuna. I hope you two are enjoying your honeymoon. Unfortunately, I'm not writing this letter to congratulate you on your marriage, but I am writing to ask for your help. We have come across a dire situation, and we could really use your help. I understand that you two are still on your honeymoon and that it would feel wrong for us to end your honeymoon early, but all attempts to take care of this situation have failed, and we desperately need your help. Please report to HQ as soon as possible; I will fill you in on all the details.
Sincerely
Heathcliff.
Kirito nods at Asuna as they need to figure out what they need to do.
"Hmm, they must be desperate if they're calling us back early," said Asuna.
"You're right about that," Kirito responds to her.
Asuna then got off from Kirito and began to get dressed, making her nice 34C size breasts to bounce and briefly showing Kirito her nice round butt. Kirito looks away from Asuna as he rather not be slapped by her. Kirito then opened his menu and started getting dressed, putting on his usual black outfit.
"I hope whatever he needs is urgent and not calling us back in just because," said Kirito.
"Of course, it's urgent; why would he be sending that message to us?" Asked Asuna, now wearing her usual Knights Of The Blood Oath Outfit.
"Let's just get this over with; the faster, the better," said Kirito.
Thirty minutes later, Kirito and Asuna arrived back at HQ at the Blood Oath Knights and are seen making their way to Heathcliff, the Blood Oath Knights leader.
"Alright, we're here," said Asuna.
Asuna then walked over and knocked on the door to Healthcliff's office. Kirito went to check on his friend's list to see if anyone of them was still okay. To his surprise, only Asuna was on his friend's list. No one else.
"Come on in," said Heathcliff from his office.
Kirito closes the screen and enters the office with Asuna.
"Ah, Asuna, Kirito, welcome, come, take a seat," said Heathcliff, and Kirito and Asuna went to the chairs to sit down, "First off, I would like to apologize for calling you two in while you were still on your honeymoon. But, right now, we need your help more than ever," said Heathcliff.
"What's the matter?" Asked Asuna.
"Two days ago, one of our healers, Rosaira, was kidnapped by a member of The Laughing Coffin Guild. He managed to kidnap her as soon as she stepped out of the safe zone. Before that, though, she requested a leave of absence, which I granted her. Although looking back at it now, I wish I didn't grant her request. Otherwise, she would still be with us.
"Laughing Coffin is still around?" Asked Asuna.
"I thought we took them out; we even put two members in prison," said Kirito.
"Yes, but it is possible that some members manage to get away during the assault. The way I see it, this loan member is using Rosaira as revenge towards us, to avenge his fallen brothers and sisters," explained Heathcliff.
"But he's just one guy. Surely your other men can handle him, right?" Asked Kirito.
"That's what we thought too," said Heathcliff, shocking Kirito and Asuna after hearing this.
"That's what I thought, so but why call us here for?" Kirito tells the commander.
"Obviously, you two are the best swordsman and woman that we have. Plus, your levels are higher than all the other members of The Blood Oath Knights; if anyone can beat him, it's you two," said Heathcliff.
"If you don't mind me asking Commander, how many people have tried to fight this one Laughing Coffin member?" Asked Asuna.
"The day of the kidnapping, we sent five nights after them, but they came back critically wounded, on the verge of dying. Then, yesterday, ten more Knights went after them to fight that one individual," said Heathcliff.
"Wait, ten knights?! This one person managed to defeat all ten knights without breaking a sweat?" Asked Kirito.
"Not exactly," said Heathcliff sounding embarrassed, confusing Kirito and Asuna.
"This member, what's his name?" Asked Kirito.
"On the day of the kidnapping, one of the nights managed to get some information from Rosaira's kidnapper. He was able to touch him to get his name to pop up briefly, and the name that showed up was, Xyaqom.
"Xyaqom?" Asked Kirito.
Heathcliff brought up his profile. His attire looked exactly like Kirito's, but there was a hood covering his face. They viewed his name and saw it was pronounced as X.Y.A.Q.O.M.
"What's with the dots between the letters of his name?" Asked Asuna.
"According to our sources, the letters of his name represents the first six people he has murdered," said Heathcliff.
"What?" He took the first letters of their names and added to his own?" Asked Kirito.
"Yes, although, we have no idea who those people were," said Heathcliff.
"So, the rumors were true after all; Xyaqom does exist," said Kirito.
"You said earlier that ten more knights came after him; what happened to those knights?" Asked Asuna.
"Yesterday, only one out of those ten knights came back alive. According to that knight that survived, those nine knights attempted to use the Kamikaze feature as a desperate attempt to defeat Xyaqom, but they failed," said Heathcliff in an embarrassed tone.
"Kamikaze?" Asked Kirito.
"It's a feature on the menu, under the advance options. With this option, you can self-destruct, taking anyone with you," explained Asuna.
"Yes, but there is a serious drawback to this feature, though; once you activate Kamikaze mode, there's no canceling it. Once you activate the kamikaze mode, you will self-destruct in ten seconds, killing you and the victim that you wish to take with you," explained Heathcliff.
"And Xyaqom guy managed to take nine knights that blew up right in front of him?!" Asked Hajime.
"Not exactly," said Heathcliff, sounding even more embarrassed, "Xyaqom knew he would die if he had nine knights blowing up in front of him. So, he simply kept his distance when the knights blew themselves up," explained Heathcliff.
"He was able to outrun nine knights?" Asked Asuna.
"Yes, he was able to use his speed to his advantage. He wears a similar outfit that Kirito is wearing right now, very light and easy to move. The knights in question were wearing heavy armor that had a combined weight of hundred pounds. Wearing that much heavy armor can really slow a person down. Xyaqom knew that their armor would slow them down, so he used their weakness to keep his distance away from them. So, when they eventually blew themselves up, Xyaqom was already at a safe distance, not even getting a scratch from the combined explosions," explained Heathcliff in an embarrassed and annoyed tone.
"Those idiots!" Shouted Asuna, slamming her fists onto Heathcliff's desk, "What were they thinking?!" She shouted.
"How do you know all of this?" Asked Kirito.
"As I said, ten knights went after him; only one came back alive. There, the one knight explained everything to me of what went down," explained Heathcliff.
Kirito then began to think more about all of this, "There's something about this that's not sitting right with me," said Kirito.
"What do you mean?" Asked Heathcliff.
"I mean, why would a lone Laughing Coffin member want to kidnap a member of The Blood Oath Knights. I mean, that alone is basically begging us to come after him," said Kirito.
What about Rosaira? Is she still alive?" Asked Asuna.
"At the moment, yes. I am guessing that he needs her for something right now. Otherwise, he would have killed her right then and there. Although, he might be keeping her captive for his own personal agenda," said Asuna.
"Wait, are you implying that he might be keeping her against her will? To... Do whatever he wants with her?" Asked Kirito.
"That monster," said Asuna in an angry tone.
"Whatever reason may be, we need your help more than ever. Rosaira is needed for another task that I have lined up for you two, and her keeping us healthy is crucial right now. That's why we need you to get Rosaria back to HQ as soon as possible.
"Do you have any idea where their last known location is?" Asked Kirito.
"Let's see," Heathcliff pulled out Rosaria's profile to find out where she is. He sees that she is currently on the move," She's moving right now at Glyn Ford Forest, no doubt Xyaqom is with her. Perhaps they are changing to a different location. If you two hurry, you might be able to meet them on time," said Heathcliff.
Kirito was thinking if his friend was doing alright.
"Kirito, is everything okay?" Asked Asuna.
"I don't know." Kirito thought that his friend has something to do with this.
"Anyways, you two should get going. Any healing items you may need will be in the supply room. I'll let them know you're coming," said Heathcliff.
Kirito nods at the commander, "Let's go, Asuna," said Kirito.
Kirito and Asuna went back to their storage room to get healing potions for the journey.
"Kirito, is something bothering you?" Asked Asuna
Kirito shakes his head no at his wife as he was happy to see her happy. Asuna could tell something was bothering Kirito but chose to leave it alone for a while.
Thirty Minutes Later:
At Glyn Ford Forest, Xyaqom and Rosaira are seen making their way to the nearest city. Xyaqom was 5'7 feet tall and weighed 170 pounds. He was wearing the same clothes as Kirito's normal attire but had a good over his head to cover his face. His "Prisoner" Rosaira, was the healer of The Blood Oath Knights. She is sixteen years old has short reddish-brown hair and green hair. She is 5'6 feet tall and weighs 120 pounds. She was also wearing the usual light attire for the Blood Oath Knights. Sadly, we are unable to see what her breast size was since she was wearing her uniform.
"Xyaqom," said Rosaira.
"Yeah?" Asked Xyaqom.
"Um, maybe it's best that I go back. They're just going to keep coming back. They know where I am at all times. They're not going to stop until they bring me back," said Rosaira.
"Don't worry, there's a cafe that I know that's not far from here; it used to be a safe zone for the Laughing Coffin when they were still around. Once we enter that safe zone, your signal will go out. We'll be safe there," said Xyaqom.
"But still, I should go back eventually," said Rosaira.
"You will, I... I just want to spend more time with you," said Xyaqom.
Xyaqom didn't want to admit it, but Rosaira was the only person who made him feel human, especially since everything he went through after getting stuck in this death game. Rosaira was smiling at her friend, which she nods at Xyaqom. Rosaira obviously liked Xyaqom and wanted to be more than just friends with him. However, it was kinda impossible in their current situation.
Meanwhile, Kirito and Asuna were walking in Glyn Ford Forest, looking for Xyaqom and rescue Rosaira.
"How far are we?" Asked Kirito to Asuna.
"It is nearly six minutes away from us," Kirito tells Asuna.
"Alright, hopefully, he's not expecting us," said Kirito.
Kirito then went back into his friend's list, only to see Asuna's name on the list. He used to have another friend on his list, but it disappeared over a year ago. Most likely, he was killed. Asuna turns her head and sees Kirito was looking at his friend list.
"Hey, don't worry, I didn't de-friend you," said Asuna, thinking that Kirito thought she de-friend him. Kirito nods at Asuna as he was glad at her.
"By the way, do you have any idea where they're going?" Asked Kirito.
"That I don't know, but it can't be good. Let's do this," Asuna speaks back to Kirito with a soft tone.
With that said, Asuna and Kirito began to run towards Rosaira and Xyaqom.
Meanwhile, while Xyaqom and Rosaira were making their way to the nearest safe zone, Xyaqom sensed that they would get a company.
"Shit," said Xyaqom.
"What's wrong?" Asked Rosaira.
"We're about to get a company. Go! The safe zone is not there; go there and wait for me," said Xyaqom.
Rosaira nods at Xyaqom as she was running away from him.
"They never learn," said Xyaqom, and he starts walking towards Kirito and Asuna, and his eyes beginning to turn red.
"Let's start this with a bang," said Xyaqom as he took out some orange crystals; Xyaqom then jumped to the highest tree and waited for them to get into position.
"Damn it, she's running," said Asuna.
"Do you think he knows we're coming?" Asked Kirito.
Just then, two orange crystals dropped down to their feet, and they were beeping as if they were bombs.
"WATCH OUT!" Kirito quickly grabs Asuna and pushes her out of the way, just in time when the crystals exploded.
"Asuna, are you okay?" Asked Kirito.
"Yes, I am," Asuna tells Kirito with a soft tone.
"You knights never seem to learn; I'm guessing that kamikaze stunt hasn't scared you," said Xyaqom, who was being covered by the smoke. Neither Kirito nor Asuna could see him.
"Damnit, we missed him," Kirito responds to them.
"He's still here; keep your guard up," said Asuna, to which Kirito nods.
Xyaqom then took out his dual blades and started scanning Kirito and Asuna.
"If you value your lives, you will leave us alone," said Xyaqom through the smoke.
"In your dreams, we're not going to let you do whatever you want with her!" Shouted Asuna.
Xyaqom grind, "Then you have yourselves to blame," said Xyaqom.
With his dual swords, Xyaqom dashed towards Asuna to wound her, but Kirito quickly came to the rescue and used his dual swords to block Xyaqom's attack. Xyaqom was strong, as Kirito was struggling to keep his attacks at bay.
"A fellow Dual Welder, I thought I was the only one," grind Xyaqom.
Xyaqom pushes Kirito away from him as he was ready for it.
"Damn it, Asuna, look for Rosaira; I'll hold him off," said Kirito.
Kirito then dashed towards Xyaqom, only for him to block his attacks.
"Don't bother, at this point, she's off the radar; you won't be able to find her no matter how hard you try," grind Xyaqom.
Kirito saw the crystal over Xyaqom's head and saw that he was a red player.
"You bastard!" Kirito kicked Xyaqom away from him and unleashed a fury of slash attacks at Xyaqom, only for Xyaqom to block all of his attacks.
"Oh, you quite the angry one. Will you be giving me a challenge than those other jokers?" Taunted Xyaqom.
Xyaqom swings his blade down to makes Kirito blocks the attack. Xyaqom quickly uses his blades to block Kirito's attacks, and a ferocious sword fight ensues. Kirito unleashes a series of sword attacks, making Xyaqom go on the defensive, blocking his attacks. Kirito tries to cut Xyaqom's head off, but Xyaqom quickly ducks and performs a leg sweep on Kirito, making him fall on his back. Xyaqom then tries to stab Kirito, but he quickly rolls out of the way and kicks Xyaqom in the chest; while staggered, Kirito charges in to stab Xyaqom, but he quickly blocks it. Xyaqom kicks Kirito in the kneecap and gut and attempts to stab Kirito, but he uses his blade to block the attack; he then uses the telt of his blades to bash Xyaqom in the face, then tries to stab him, but Xyaqom quickly ducks under the attack and uses a leg sweep on him to make him fall again. However, this time, he catches himself and quickly kicks Xyaqom in the gut and face, knocking him down to the ground. Kirito attempts to stab Xyaqom face in, but Xyaqom quickly using a leg sweep to make Kirito fall on his back again, giving Xyaqom some time to get back.
Xyaqom was impressed by Kirito as he nods at him.
"I have to admit, you're pretty good," he sees that Kirito's health was slowly recovering. Kirito saw that Xyaqom's health was also recovering, "I have a feeling we're going to be doing this for a while," grind Xyaqom.
"Same here," Kirito tells Xyaqom with a soft tone.
"However, I plan on winning," said Xyaqom.
Just then, Asuna dashed towards Xyaqom and stabbed him. But to her shock, her attack only did a quarter of his health.
"Well, I'll be damned if it isn't Asuna, the second in command of the Blood Oath Knights. They must be desperate if they sent you after me," said Xyaqom sadistically smiling at Asuna and pulling her blade out of his chest, making Asuna to be surprised.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!" Shouted Kirito and then tries to stab Xyaqom, but he quickly blocks his attack.
Their battle would eventually take them back to the safe zone where Rosaira was. When Xyaqom and Kirito got near the safe zone, Kirito kicked Xyaqom in the gut and then him in the face that sends him flying into some rocks. Asuna then unleashed a fury of blade attacks at Xyaqom, which he either ducked under, dodged, or blocked by using his blades. Xyaqom manages to duck, dodge, and block his way to Asuna for a few minutes. And that's when he sees an opening and kicks Asuna in the gut, and was about to knee her in the face. Still, Kirito took the attack instead and attempted to elbow Xyaqom to the face, but she quickly grabs the elbow, headbutts him, and attempts to stab him in the gut. Still, Asuna quickly kicks Xyaqom's arm, making him miss Kirito, and attempts to stab him. Xyaqom quickly grabs her arm to stop her from stabbing him in the gut and gets her to stab the ground instead and knees her in the face to make her fall on her back. Kirito quick leg sweeps Xyaqom to make him fall. Asuna picks herself up to stab Xyaqom once he hits the ground. However, Xyaqom quickly catches himself using his hands and kicks Asuna in the gut and kicks Kirito in the face. Still, Asuna quickly grabs Xyaqom's legs before they make contact and slams him back down to the ground, and then slams him to some rocks. Kirito then attempts to stab Xyaqom in the head while he is dazed, but Xyaqom quickly manages to move out of the way and then attempts to kick Kirito, but he manages to duck under the kick and attempts to stab Xyaqom in the gut. However, Xyaqom quickly managed to kick Kirito in the head, then kicks him in the chest to make him crash into a tree.
Xyaqom was ready to escape, but Asuna quickly grabs an orange crystal and has it blown on his face. However, this also damaged Asuna's hand. Kirito helps Asuna get back onto her feet as he shows her the healing crystal to heal her hand. When Asuna had that orange crystal to blow up on Xyaqom's face, it burned off his hood, revealing his face, revealing he has short spiky black hair and red eyes.
Xyaqom was showing his face towards Kirito as his expression shows a firm, then he says, "Kyler."
Although his hair color was different, there was no mistaking it; his face hadn't. Xyaqom was Kirito's thought to be dead friend, Kyler.
"Huh? What was that, Kirito?" Asked Asuna.
"You stupid bitch! That was my favorite jacket! You'll pay that with your life!" Shouted Xyaqom in rage in his voice and his eyes glowing red.
"Kyler, that's enough!" Shouted Kirito.
Xyaqom quickly stops in his tracks, surprised at what he just heard.
Xyaqom was about to strike Kirito down, but he stops only five centimeters away from his face.
"What... What did you call me?" Asked Xyaqom.
"Kyler... is that you?" Kirito was asking him with a soft tone.
Just then, a swarm of memories began to flow through Xyaqom's mind. He began to remember who he used to be and how he got stuck in there. One of those memories was Kirito, especially when they met in the real world when they were just kids.
"K-Kirito? AH!" Screamed Xyaqom, holding his head in pain.
"Kyler is that really you." Kirito was telling his friend with an honest tone.
"Kyler... Is... Ah!" Screamed Xyaqom, as he felt his head was burning.
Xyaqom was trying his best to step away from his former friend as his blade points at Kirito.
"What... What did you do to me?!" Shouted Xyaqom.
"I made you remember me," Kirito responds to Xyaqom.
"Damn you! DAMN YOU!" Screamed Xyaqom holding his head.
Eventually, Xyaqom let out a scream as a red aura was flooding out of his head. Shortly after, he fell to his knees, panting.
"Kyler, you can do it! Please try to remember!" Shouted Kirito.
Xyaqom remembers how he used to be known as Kyler, but something about him changed. That's when it clicked; it all started with the girl. Xyaqom's eyes then began to blink from red to brown.
"That's right, I remember now, it all started with that girl," said Xyaqom as his eyes were blinking from red to brown. Kirito looks at Xyaqom with a confident expression as his hand was offered for Xyaqom to help him up.
Xyaqom slowly started to get back up, "The Laughing Coffin, they were going to kill the little girl, I... I couldn't just stand there and let them kill her... So... I... Killed them," said Xyaqom, as his red eyes were slowly turning back to brown.
"Are you sure that killing them was the answer?" Kirito was telling her in a soft tone.
"What would've you done? If you were in my shoes. The Laughing Coffin, they can't be reasoned, they can't be bought. They just want to watch the world burn. So I ask you if you were in my shoes, what would've you done?" Asked Xyaqom. Kirito was silent about the question.
"If that's the case, then why join them?" Asked Kirito.
"You think I had a choice?" Asked Xyaqom, shocking Kirito, "They kidnapped me and forced me to join them. At the time, I only joined because I was scared for my life. But nowadays, I don't even care anymore. Nowadays, I fight, hoping that someone with best me and put me out of my misery. But I'm always one step ahead of them. Nowadays, I only feel human again whatever my life is in the line, the thrill of battle. Other than that, I am completely numb to everything," said Xyaqom.
"That's not true, Kyler! You still have Humanity left in you," said Kirito.
"What makes you say that?" Asked Xyaqom.
"Although you were trying to hide it, I could tell that you are trying to fight for Rosaira. You didn't want it to let her go, so you were fighting for her.
There were a few minutes of silence. Xyaqom didn't know what to say, so he kept his mouth shut.
Asuna holds Kirito with a warm embracement in her hands.
"So, what's the deal with you two? Are you two partners?" Asked Xyaqom, seeing Asuna and Kirito together.
"Actually, we're married." Asuna responds to Xyaqom.
"Wait... What?! You can get married in this game?!" Asked Xyaqom.
Kirito and Asuna nod at the answer to Xyaqom's question.
"Wow, just... Wow. But I mean, what's the point of marriage anyway? It's not like you two can bang each other in this game," said Xyaqom sounding disappointed.
Hearing Xyaqom say that made Kirito and Asuna blush hard, and steam bursting out of their heads.
"Kyler, let's just pass on that situation." Kirito was telling him with a soft tone.
"Huh?" Asked Xyaqom.
"ANYWAYS!" Shouted Asuna, trying to change the topic, "Ahem, why did you kidnap Rosaira?" Asked Asuna.
"Is that what they told you?" Asked Xyaqom.
"Yes!" Kirito and Asuna responds back to Xyaqom.
"I see, so it's either a misunderstanding or they lied to you to attack me," said Xyaqom.
"Why would you think kidnapping Rosaira was a misunderstanding?" Asked Kirito.
"Obviously, we planned to see each other. Since I am a red player, I can't enter public safe zones without people knowing it. And since Rosaira is a green player, she can enter and leave a safe zone whenever she pleases. All I have to do is wait outside the safe zone and take her to my place. Although the more I think about it, someone from the Blood Oth Knights must have seen me pick Rosaria up and take her to my place. That must have been when they mistook me for kidnapping her," explained Xyaqom.
Xyaqom turns to sees Rosaira was going to be happy.
"Xyaqom," said Rosaira.
"Rosaira, what are you doing here?" Asked Xyaqom as he walked up to her.
"I got worried about you, and who are these love birds?" Rosaira was telling Xyaqom with a soft tone.
"Oh, this is Kirito and Asuna, from the Blood Oath Knights," said Xyaqom.
"No way, Asuna?! The second in command?! That Asuna?!" Asked Rosaira in shock.
Asuna nods at Kirito, and Kirito nods back.
"Wait, you never met Asuna before? You two are from the same Guild?" Asked Kirito.
"That may be true, but I'm just a grunt comparing to her. I've heard of her, but I've never actually met her in person," She turns to Asuna, "if they sent you here, they must be desperate to have me back," said Rosaira.
"So, did you get her pregnant or something?" Rosaira asks Kirito.
"W-what?!" Asked Kirito in a blushing state.
"Don't get your hopes up. Besides, you can't even have sex in this game, so it would be impossible for them to have a baby," said Xyaqom to Rosaira; this made Kirito and Asuna blush hard.
It was obvious that Xyaqom never invested in the "Advanced Options" of the game.
"Aw, that sucks. What's the point of getting married if you can't even have sex," asked Rosaira.
"I know, right?" Asked Xyaqom.
Steam was now bursting out of Kirito's and Asuna's head out of embarrassment. Obviously, Xyaqom and Rosaira never attempted to have sex.
"I believe these two want to do it," Rosaira told them with a soft tone.
"OKAY, THAT ENOUGH!" Shouted Asuna, now blushing red; she then calms herself down, "Rosaira, we need you to come back," said Asuna.
"Got you there, Kirito and Asuna," Xyaqom responds to them.
"But, what Xyaqom?" Asked Rosaira.
"Sadly, I'm a red player, so I can't come with you," said Xyaqom.
Xyaqom smiles at them, and he turns his attention back to the open road, which he was thinking about finding out who was Kayaba is.
"Xyaqom..." Said Rosaira.
"It's okay, go with them," said Xyaqom.
Rosaira, Kirito, and Asuna checks on their status then close it off. Then they see Xyaqom was gone from their sights.
"Kyler, I hope we can see each other again," said Kirito.
Rosaira looks at Kirito then Asuna, wondering if they are together and strong enough to clear the game.
"Kirito, was it?" Asked Rosaira.
"Yes, I believe he's strong enough to survive and maybe this death game," Kirito tells her.
"Thank you. I... I hope you two can beat this game so I can see him in real life," said Rosaira.
"We will try our best," Kirito tells her.
With that in mind, Kirito, Asuna, and Rosaira began to make their way back to HQ, with Xyaqom nowhere to be found.
The End... For now...
Note: Now, I'm sure that a lot of questions were raised while reading the story. For example, when did Xyaqom meet Rosaira, how did he meet Rosaira? All of these questions could be answered if you guys want me to make a full-fledged story of this one-shot. All you got to do is leave a review telling me that you want a full foot story, and if I get enough reviews, I will do it. But on till then, this will stay as a One-Shot for now. Until then, my name is Xyaqom, and I'm signing out.
