Sword Art Online 2: Back To The Virtual World

Showdown In The Wilderness


The person showed both Sonic and Kirito's names on the Bullet Of Bullets 3 Tourament.

"These names... Those skills with a blade. Are you two the real thing?"

"I... I know this person, too. We're the same. We're all SAO survivors. Who is this person? Where did we meet?" Kirito thought

"Why is it so damn difficult who was it?" Sonic thought

The person show's his wrist to both of them. The laughing coffin. The two of them were shocked and shaking.

"Do you two not understand by question?"

"No, We don't. What do you mean by the "the real thing"?" Kirito said

"That's fine. But whether your fakes using their names or the real ones... Someday, I'll kill you both."

The person walk's pass. Sonic and Kirito were both standing all shock. The person disapper's in the dark. They two of them sat down breathing heavily. They both covered there faces.

"It can't be..." Sonic thought

The two of them continue breathing heavily all shocked and sweating.

"Laughing Coffin... That emblem belonged to the SAO murderes' guild, Laughing Coffin. Many players were killed by them. But they weren't the only ones who murdered people."

A dip of sweat fell down too the ground as everything turned black.


*Somewhere Else*

The two opened up their eyes too see they that were in a diffrent place and had there old SAO clothes and sword. They both watched Asuna and other players walking pass them.

"What's going on?" Sonic whisper

"I don't know, Let's follow them." Kirito whisper

Sonic and Kirito both followed them. After Minutes of walking, All of them stopped walking. One of them turned around.

"We're almost to the Laughing Coffin HQ that was in the report. I'll go over this once more before we attack. They are red players! Once the battle starts, they will think nothing of killing us. So we can't hesitate, either. If we do, they'll kill us. But we, in the lead group, have more people and higher levels than they. They may actually surrender without fighting."

Some started giggling. Sonic and Kirito both looked up too see lots of players with black cloaks. Kirito and Sonic were fighting against one of them. They blocked every attack that the player did. Asuna killed on while another one try to slash her duck. More appeared.

"I-impossible... Information about our plan leaked?"

Kirito and Sonic both slash the player as disappered. Another one came very fast to attack Kirito and Sonic but they mange too block it in time. The rest of guild were all attacking the other players. A lot of attacking and blocking on coming attacks. Sonic and Kirito were both breathing heavily. They both looked around.

"They caught us off-guard, but we've regrouped. We can do this!"

Kirito looked to see a player was charging at Sonic.

"Sonic watch out!" Kirito yelled

Sonic looked to see a player charging at him. The player jump's and try's to attack but Sonic manged to block it. Kirito dodged another player's attack that was charging at him. Another player was walking back to see there was a drop down to the bottom. Some of the players of guild all surrounded him.

"This is the end."

No repond.

"Hey, are you listening?"

The player showed his sword.

"Stop it! One more attack, and you'll die!"

"Stop... Stop it!"

The player had a smile on his face. He charged at them and stab's one of them. He slashes another one. After those were done, He kick's a player down to the ground. The player look's up to see him with his sword up. The player yelled as he slashes him half. Sonic and Kirito both heared the cried of the player. They both looked too see three players of the guild all disappered in thin-air. And only one of them killed all three.

"No way." Sonic said

The player killed another one. They both walked back a little. The player was charging at them. They both mange too block his attack. The player try to attack both of them but they both kept his sword from attack. Kirito and Sonic both jumped and both slash him at the same time.

"The rest of the fight was a bloody hell. In that fight, we lost more than ten people. At least twenty Laughing Coffin members let themselves be destroyed rather than surrender. Two of them were destroyed by Sonic and my sword.


*Back To Reality*

Kirito was still shaking from the Laughing Coffin logo in the person's wrist. Sonic was comforting him with a hand behind him back.

"If he's a surviving member of LC, he must've spoken to me at some point after the battle. No, maybe... Could he be one the two I killed? No, that can't be..." Kirito thought

*FlashBack*

"The name this gun and I share! Death Gun!"

*End Of FlashBack*

Kirito stood there all shock.

"It's the same. His voice was the same as Death Gun's." Kirito thought

"He... The one in the gray cape is Death Gun?" Kirito said

"What's happening Kirito?" Sonic said

"It was him..." Kirito said

"What do you mean?" Sonic said

"The person that came too us was... Death Gun." Kirito said

Sonic needed to think a little until finally he said sometimg.

"That was him?" Sonic said

"It was." Kirito said

"How do you know it was him?" Sonic said

"Remember the voice audio we heared back at my house?" Sonic said

"Yea." Sonic said

"W-Well that was him." Kirito said

Than all of a sudden, Someone thouches him at his shoulder. Kirito jump's and look's up. It was Sinon.

"What do you want this time Sinon. We heared enough from you for one day." Sonic said

"Shut up you blue animal." Sinon said

"What is it Sinon?" Kirito said

"You two are messes."

"N-No, We're fine."

"Was the fight that close? If so, you both made it back pretty early."

Kirito sit's back and look's down.

"If your first fight already has you like that, you'll nevet make it to the finals. Get a grip on yourself. You owe me." Sinon said before walking away

Kirito grab's Sinom hand.

"Hey-"

Kirito grab's her hand with two hands now. Sinon look's at Kirito to him all sweating and stress.

"It's ok Kirito. Everything is going to be fine. Don't worry." Sonic said comfortimg him

Sinon start's to feel bad for Kirito.

"What's wrong? Did something..."

Sonic and Kirito started glowing away. They both disappered im thin-air. Sinon look's at qualifiers.

*Kirito and Sonic, Uemaru, Ginko, Ricardo. Kirito and Sonic vs Ginko*

Spiegel look's at Sinon.


*BoB Qualifiers, Round 2, Battlefield-*

Sonic and Kirito both transported too the next round. Kirito just stood there looking at floor.

"It's okay now Kirito." Sonic said

All of a sudden, laser pointers were pointing at Sonic and Kirito.

"Oh no."

The person started firing at them. All of bullets them expect for two that Sonic and Kirito cheeks. Kirito take's a breath. The Kirito started running towards the player with a battle cry. Sonic grab his beam sword as he started following Kirito.

"Those are crazy ways to fight."

Sinon and Spiegel were both watching Sonic and Kirito as well.


*Back To The Battlefield*

The player kept on shooting at them. They both deflected almost all of the bullets. They both jump behind the player and slash him at the same time in the chest.


*Back At The Tournament Qualifiers*

Everyone was all impressed at both Sonic and Kirito's skill.

"They keep fighting like that and winning. Their next fight is in the semifinals. Sinon, yours is too, right? Good luck." Spiegel said

Sinon didn't answer him but kept looking at the screen. She saw Sonic and Kirito just standing there.

*Winner, Kirito and Sonic*


*-BoB Qualifiers, Round 5, Battlefield-*

"My opponent, Stinger, uses an FN SCAR carbine rifle as his main weapon. Since I'm a sniper, if he gets close to me, I'll have no chance. But on this map, if he wants to get in close, he has to pass through here. I'll finish him then."

Sinon was on top of a building hiding while pointing her Sniper at the location. Sinon looked at her hand to have flashback's of Sonic and Kirito.

"It's their fault..."

A shadow appeared. Sinon pull's the trigger as it hit something. It was nothing.

"Huh?"

Then, A car appeared driving. Sinon remove's the ammo for the next round.

"He wanted to make me waste my first shot, and to use that time to get close?"

Sinon point's the bullet at the car window.

"But I can still see the first bullet's path. My second shot will be even more accurate."

She pull's the trigger as the bullet flew to the car and hit the window. The player let's go of the steering wheel and disapper's in thin-air. The smashes to a building and explode's on impact.

"If he'd gotten out of the car, he might have been able to see the prediction line in time to dodge it." Sinon said

Sinon stand's up from the floor.

*Congratulations! Sinon Wins!*

Sinon start's glowing and disapper's in thin-air.


*In A Dark Place*

Sinon reappered in a dark place with just a stand. She look's us to see her next opponent.

*Time Remaining: 55 seconds, Field: Intercontinental Highway, Sinon VS Kirito and Sonic*

Sinon had a angry look on her face.


*-BoB Qualifiers, Final Round, Battlefield-*

Sinon appered at the Battlefield. She looked around to see a damage highway and destroyed buildings. She also look's behind to see a force field. She run's inside a bus. She put's her Sniper down and lay's down straight.

"They'll move through the shadows to find me... My only chance is my first shot, when they won't know my location. I'll hit him, no matter what. Including his stupid blue animal friend." Sinon thought

She look's threw her scope and look's straight.

"Why do I want to beat them so much? Because he's like me? Kirito..."

Sinon shake's her head. She see's something and look's threw the scope. Two figures appered in the distance walking slowly towards her. She zoom's close to get a better view of the two figures. It was Kirito and Sonic. Sinon was nervous and sweating.

"Do they think they can dodge my bullets whenever they want?"

Sinon put's her finger on the trigger. Kirito and Sonic were still walking slowly towards her. Sinom started getting mad.

"They aren't interested in dodging them?"

The circle was trying to point at Kirito's head. The circle couldn't stay on Kirito's head. Sinon was breathing heavliy.

"Screw... S-Screw you!" Sinon cried out

Sinon pull's the trigger as it broke threw the window and to Kirito. The bullet flew pass Kirito and hit's a car. The car explode's behind them. Sinon was shocked. Sinon pointed the Sniper to Sonic next. She pull's the trigger as the bullet started flying toward's Sonic. Sonic matrix dodge very fast as the bullet flew pass him.

"H-He dodge it very fast!" Sinon said

Sinon see's Sonic and Kirito both just standing there doing nothing. Not even moving. Sinon was breathing heavliy and sweating a lot. She fire's the next shot but the bullet hit's the ground. She than fire's another one but hit's the ground. She kept firing at them but the bullets all missed and kept on hitting the ground. Sonic and Kirito were both still standing there in the exact same spot. Sinon run's out of bus and run's toward Kirito and Sonic.

"Why? Does a fight with me not matter? Is that it?" Sinon said

"Our only goal is to make it to make it to the main tournament tomorrow. We have no reason to fight." Kirito said

"I just want to get out of this world." Sonic said

"Then shoot yourselfs with those guns! Did you two not want too spend the cost of a bullet? Or did you two think if you let me hit you two, I'd be satisfied? "This is just a single match, in a virtual game." I know that's what you two think! But don't assume I think the same way!"

"Huh?"

*FlashBack*

"But if I do see you two in the finals, even if it's a qualifier... I won't go easy on you two."

"We understand. Of course. If that happens, let's all fight as hard as we can."

*End Of FlashBack*

"We're sorry, We were wrong. It's only a game, It's only a single match. But that's why we need to fight as hard as we can. Otherwise, we don't have the right, or reason, to live in this world. I thought we knew that. Sinon, would you give us a chamce to make it up to you? Fight us once more."

"No falling back." Sonic said

"Right now?"

The two of were grabbing something from there backs. Sinon pointed the Sniper at them. It was there pistols. They pulled it back ready to fire, They put them away. Kirito had a bullet in his hand.

"You still have bullets, right?"

"Yes, just one."

"Then let's do this duel-style. Let me see... We'll move ten meters away, and you'll ready your rifle and us our swords. I'll throw this bullet, and once it hits the ground, the match begins. How does that work?" Kirito said

"So... You in?" Sonic said

"Listen... At a mere ten meters, your prediction line assist won't help you two at all. And a shot from this Hecate will you for sure. At this range, it has a one hundred-percent hit rate." Sinon said

"We won't know until we try." Kirito said

"Do they have some kind of plan? If so... what is it? I want to see it, no matter what!" Sinon thought

"All right. We can finish things this way."

Sonic and Kirito both walked ten meters away from Sinon. They both turned around, Sinon pulled her rifle ready for the last shot. She point's the Sniper toward's Kirito's head. Kirito show's Sinon the bullet.

"I knew it. They have some plan." Sinon thought

Sinon pointed the Sniper at Kirito's leg.

"Okay, here I go."

Kirito flick's the bullet to the air. Kirito and Sonic both grab there beam swords and turned them on. They both had the same pose. Sinon, Sonic and Kirito were both looking at him. The bullet hit's the ground. Sinon pull's the trigger as it started going toward's Kirito. Two slashes of the beam swords, The bullet broke into four pieces and flew pass both Kirito and Sonic.

"No! That's impossible!"

Sinon tried to reload very quickly. Kirito and Sonic were both running towards Sinon. Sinon looked at them as they them both ready too attack. He trip's but they both grab her and put there swords in both side of her face.

"I was aiming for your left leg... How could you two predicy where I was firing?" Sinon said

"We could see your eyes on the other side of the scope." Kirito said

"They predicted the bullet's path on their own? They're strong. Those strength and speed go beyond a virtual game!" Sinon thought

"If you two are that strong, why are you two so afraid of?" Sinon said

"This isn't strength nor speed. It's only skill." Kirito said

"Who say's speed is skill?" Sonic said

"You're lying... You two are lying. Technique isn't enough to cut through a bullet from the Hecate. You two must know that. How can I become strong like that? I... I'm trying to learn that." Sinon said

"If... If that bullet could also kill a player in the real world... And if you didn't shoot them, you or someone you loved would be killed... Could you still pull the trigger?" Kirito said

"Would you that? Shoot them for that someone you loved so much that was killed? And take someone's life that other people also care about?" Sonic said

"Do they know about my past? About what happened? No... Maybe they, too..."

They both bring her up closer to them. They both turn off there beam swords.

"We can't do it anymore. So were not strong. We don't even know the real names of the two... No, three that we killed back then." Kirito said

"It was a long time ago. I still have memorys of it. I just want them to go away so they won't bother me anymore. But there is no way to forget about it. They will haunt me till the day I die." Sonic said

"I just closed my eyes, put my hands over my ears, and tried to forget it all." Kirito said

Sinon felt bad for the two of them, She drop's her pistol to the floor. She was about hold to Kirito and Sonic's cheeks but they both nodded with a no.

"Well... I suppose me and Sonic won the duel, right?" Kirito said

"Isn't that right?" Sonic said

"Ah, um..."

"Then, would you surrender? Killing girls isn't our thing." Kirito said

Sinon move's back from Sonic and Kirito.

"Next time, I won't lose! Tomorrow, keep going until toy find me! Resign!" Sinon said

A menu of a scan appered in front of Sinon.

*Do you surrender?*

Sinon put's her hand on it.


*At The Tournament Qualifiers*
