The madman did it. He really trapped us all in here like mice in a maze. And all for his own amusement. He wants everyone to clear the game? Then we're gonna do just that. And hopefully, we won't have to go it alone.

After the brutal 25th Floor Boss Raid, Asuna has left Kirito's side to join the Knights of Blood. With his partner gone, Kirito resigns himself to returning to the life of a solo player-until a familiar face from the lower floors unexpectedly reenters his life. The strangely-human NPC Kizmel, despite her quest being over, has returned to his side... Kirito/Kizmel.

Kazuto wanted answers... why did this happen? why do they exist and prey on us? Tell me child, are you content living in a birdcage? and that alone sparked interest in him

A chance encounter on day one finds Kirito in a party, and slowly discovers that he was a natural born leader. The bonds they share are strong, but will it eventually break?

A complete summary is in the first chapter, but in short, the story parallels the plot of War of Underworld anime, here, you will see how Kirito and Alice could have been given the romance I wanted them to enjoy, but without changing the general structure of the original story. I hope I can provide as much emotional depth as possible and show the beauty of AlicexKirito.

After Asuna, Kirito, and Kizmel depart the fourth floor of Aincrad for the final time, they leave behind Yofel Castle, and the burgeoning AI of one Viscount Leyshren Zed Yofilis. Left with an odd feeling of emptiness after the departure of the trio, Leyshren sets out on his own journey to discover why both he, and the world he lives in, seem to be changing so drastically.

Kirito, Asuna, Jaymes, and Koharu continue their progression up the lower levels of Aincrad and embark on the Elf War Campaign with their new friend Kizmel. Up ahead lies three new levels, more fighting between the DKB and ALS, a new party member from Asuna's past, a dangerous enemy of the elves, and a rising of players that seek to make death part of the game.

Kiriko was definitely a boy. He just... looked like a girl, acted like a girl from time to time, and knew a lot of girl things. She — HE was definitely not a girl, despite all his quirks. Now if only Eugeo could convince both himself and the people around them of just that. (Crack)

The timeline is set after the split of Kirito and Asuna's temporary party, and Asuna just joined her guild. Kirisuna, but it's more like a pre-HET. Spoilers for Progressive Series.

The world of SAO was changing and it was just beginning. Can you protect everyone and get to floor 100?

Their stories were meant to have come to a close. And yet, in a twist of fate, the tale of the three children begins anew, guided down a different road. Saving the world was never meant to be easy, but together, it might just be possible. Even if it meant defying fate and gods themselves.

In a world where almost everyone has superpowers, being one of the few people still powerless has to suck, right? So did Kazuto think, until he, his sister, and four other teenage girls were suddenly handed six rings that embody the lost Virtues of a Cosmic Goddess and told to become the last bastion of Hope against the Forces of Chaos. Oh well, in for a penny...(One-shot/AU)

"We were born on the same year, and we will be together to our last." That was the promise the four friends had made. But when they world threatens to tear them apart, will Kirito, Eugeo, Asuna, and Alice overcome the world to fulfill their promise? AU

"Going into a dungeon? Fighting monsters? And getting dirty?" The merchant in silks laughed. "Why do that when you can hire mercenaries to do the job?" Kazuto Kirigaya doesn't like fighting, he likes making money. Much safer than swinging a sword at monsters, yuck! Besides, that was what his fearless Asuna was for anyway. KiriHarem (Argo, Asuna, Sinon)

After the disastrous 25th floor boss raid, Heathcliff invites Asuna to be his Vice-Commander of the Knights of The Blood, yet she turns his offer down in favour of sticking with Kirito.

Making games was hard. SAUER knew that. But it was especially hard for an Australian to get recognition in Japan, while working for an American-founded company. Once he had done it, though, he would prepare to connect with a large quantity of his new fellows at once - only to find that he would be spending a lot more time with them than he initially had in mind.

The tale of the Black Swordsman, a mischievous Rat, and the water Shinobi; before they were renowned by those names by both sides of the coin before they were faced with a monumental task, they were just Beta Testers, misfits. The story of Kirito, Argo, and Nagi began long before the Death Game and the memories throughout Aincrad.

Kirito wants to surprise Asuna for their wedding. How will she react to a voice she hasn't heard in a while? What will be the consequences?
