A/N: This is a message from Urolutze and I would like to announce that I uploaded my story for my character called, SAO: Oblivion (Arc 1: The World of Swords) and chapter 1 is available to read right now. Also, chapters will be uploaded slower because I am now a far distance from Yozila85 and I also cannot access the internet unless I go somewhere with wifi. Enjoy the story.
The qualifiers went well, everyone made it into the the finals, leaving no doubt that the group would be able to protect Sinon. Artemis was wielding his photon sword and magnum, but was also using his M4A1 as a back-up. He knew that if Kirito died, Sinon would die, though he knew that even if Kirito died, Wolf would fight to his last breath to save her, but that's what worried him, for he didn't know who was on Deathgun's kill list.
Artemis spawned in an urban area, he looked around, only to see an outline of a figure move past him, as even to Optical Camouflage was slightly visible, but not with equipment, for that would defeat the purpose of the invisibility. He quickly drew his photon sword, and sliced at it, though all he hit was air, the outline was long gone.
He sighed, before drawing his M4A1 and trekking out towards the desert, however along the way, he saw a man running towards a bridge, it was a man from a group Sinon used to run with, before he entered GGO. He noticed a man dressed in white with a shotgun swinging among the trees, he knew Sinon was there, at the bridge.
He chased after them, meaning to kill Palerider, before Deathgun got to him. As he got to the bridge he saw Palerider get struck by a stun bullet. He quickly shot Palerider, and killed him as Deathgun appeared and glared at Artemis, before swiftly moving out of the way, as a shot from a powerful sniper rifle grazed the steel plating on his face. He looked up, where Artemis saw an opportunity to sneak away, around and up the hill to where Kirito and Sinon sat, startling them.
Kirito slashed at Artemis, being blocked by Artemis's red blade of his own photon sword, "Good reaction time, now look at Deathgun, he's talking to our friend's in ALO right now, though he doesn't know it," Artemis said sitting down.
Sinon looked shocked, while Kirito asked, "How do you know that?"
"Reincarnation, remember? I remember this, though I didn't think that he would go on to do this anyways, after I killed his first victim, preventing him from killing that guy IRL." Artemis said.
"I'm shocked that our friends are watching, to be honest."Sinon said.
"Not surprising, as none of you knew about them knowing, well except for Kirito, as Sugu found out." Artemis said, setting up the map, "Oh, and Kirito, Asuna will end up in your hospital room in approximately 2 hours time."
Kirito was shocked, "But how, none of them know that I'm in a hospital right now."
"Well, they do now," Artemis said, pointing at a stream camera.
"Well shit," Kirito said, but Sinon was staring at him in surprise.
"You're in a what?!" She exclaimed.
"A hospital room, that way Deathgun can't kill me IRL." Kirito said.
"Because Deathgun will have a person go into their target's house, and they will have a lethal drug ready for when the Deathgun in here kills his target. The Deathgun in the target's house is watching the stream, so when the target is shot with the gun he calls Deathgun, then that is when he injects the lethal drug in your system, stopping your heart." Artemis explained.
"Well then what about me?" Sinon asked.
"Don't you worry, Owen and Alex are guarding your place right now. If they find anybody matching the description I gave them, they can either cuff them with the cuffs I gave them, or knock him out, or just kill him. Thoug, I'm pretty sure Owen wants to kill him, and I'm sure Alex feels the same way too." Artemis explained.
"Well, I sure hope they guard the place good, and I know Alex will, right?" Sinon asked.
"Of course in fact, he'd guard you with his life if that's what it meant. I'm not saying that Owen won't because I told him he might be PoH, but I'm sure the one in here is PoH, but I don't know the answer to that." Artemis said.
"PoH? The Laughing Coffin leader?" Sinon asked.
"I knew he was from Laughing Coffin." Kirito said.
Artemis nodded and gestured them to follow him. They looked on the map for where Deathgun was and it seemed he went south of where they were, so they went ahead and went there.
10 Minutes later
They were closing in on Deathgun's location. They were in an urban area now, and they walked in, and a bullet impacted the ground by Artemis's foot. They quickly hid behind a wall, and Artemis looked over the wall on the left to see Deathgun, standing there equipped with his Type 54 Black Star, pointing it directly where they were hiding. Artemis then decided that he could run to the next building with the other two, and then Artemis would start shooting at him from a vantage point upstairs in the next building.
"Okay, on the count of 3, we run to the building over there as fast as possible. Kirito, you protect Sinon while we run there. I will run upstairs and start shooting at him, and hopefully he either runs, or is killed." Artemis said.
The two nodded. Artemis counted down and soon they ran to the next building, and along with that, Deathgun was shooting at the three with his Type 54 Black Star, so they ran even faster than they would normally as these bullets were extra dangerous, especially for Sinon.
They got to the building and they didn't get shot. Kirito kept Sinon safe on the second floor and Artemis ran to the top floor and equipped his magnum and before shooting, he took a deep breath and let go of all of his worries. Once he was calmed down, he shot in Deathgun's direction and the bullet skimmed Deathgun's mask. He ran away soon after and headed to the desert.
Artemis soon walked down and said, "He went to the desert, we'll have to head there if we want a shot at killing him."
The two nodded and ran towards a bike in the distance. Artemis revved the engine and they were off to the desert area. The group went to a cave and hid there.
"So, there's another guy heading to my place?" Sinon asked.
"Supposedly, and if I'm correct, you know him quite well, and he's the last person you'd expect to try and kill you." Artemis explained.
"He knows me? How do you know this?" Sinon asked.
"Well, the anime based around what is happening right now isn't all about what Kirito is doing but rather, some of it is directed to you, meaning that someone in our universe also knows what could happen after." Artemis said.
"That's crazy," Sinon said.
"Oh yeah and what else is crazy is that if he is alive right now and is in your house, he might try and rape you instead." Artemis said.
"What!? Who is this you're talking about!?" Sinon asked, furiously.
"Well shit, it's been like how long since I reincarnated, I don't even remember. He was a boring character and I paid no attention to him at all, only until he tried to rape you, and Kirito came in and kicked his ass." Artemis said.
"Wait, I went in and kicked his ass?" Kirito asked.
"Oh yeah. You went in and fucking kicked him in the face, and then punched his nose a few times and probably broke it. He was bleeding all over his face." Artemis said. "Then he tried to drug you, but he failed miserably."
"Well at least I know I did that." Kirito said.
"Yeah, but hopefully if Owen and Alex don't kill him yet, they'll let you beat him up." Artemis said.
"Nah, I'll pass." Kirito said.
Then, a stream camera soon flew over the group, and everyone in ALO could see them talking.
"Hey, If anyone can hear us through this thing here, first let me say that we're gonna kick this Deathgun guy's ass. He can't kill IRL if he doesn't have someone in the real world to kill them, and must I say we got that covered." Artemis said.
Turns out everyone in ALO did hear them, and they all calmed down, but Asuna was thinking about what Artemis said about the person with the drug is being dealt with somehow, but she didn't care and she forgot about it. Everyone started watching closely. The stream camera soon disappeared, and Artemis got up and stretched.
"Well we should look for Deathgun on the map and head there. He'll be waiting out in the desert." Artemis said.
The other two got up and went to see a big building. Sinon decided she'd get up to the top and use it as a vantage point to snipe Deathgun. Kirito and Artemis were standing out in the field of sand, and they waited, until they saw a single bullet line point to Artemis's head, and Artemis quickly pulled out his photon sword and destroyed the bullet flawlessly. It was then Deathgun came out and said, "I have been waiting a long time for this."
"Yeah I bet you were." Artemis said.
"And that other guy, Oblivion. He's been looking for the Leader of Laughing Coffin ever since I killed his little friend in SAO. She was stuck in a dungeon, and I just walked up behind her and I stabbed the little thing multiple times." Deathgun said, laughing.
"So you did it, you fucking cruel, emotionless killer. Oblivion has been telling me how innocent she was, in fact he even says she was the most innocent person in the world, so you know what? I'm gonna find you IRL, and I am gonna make sure he takes you're last breath away from you." Artemis said, furiously.
Deathgun stood there for 5 seconds, and then he pulled out his Type 54 Black Star at Artemis, and he said, "How will you find me?"
"I know everything there is with this universe. I came here to save everyone from the pain and agony you caused upon them." Artemis said.
Deathgun put away his pistol, and stood there for another 10 seconds. "What do you mean? I don't understand." Deathgun said.
"I died once already, and if I have to die again to kill you, then I don't care!" Artemis said, pulling out his red photon sword and taking Kirito's away from him. Artemis then told Kirito to run, and then he charged at Deathgun who was wielding a blade of metal that can block photon swords. Artemis ran to him and whipped his sword at his blade. Artemis was at an advantage because not only was he dual wielding, but the photon swords were incredibly light and as the blade impacted the one Deathgun was wielding, Deathgun had to keep his grip tight. Artemis then took the other blade and pushed the sword away from Deathgun's chest and Artemis quickly kept his guard with one sword and sliced at Deathgun's hand, cutting it off, leaving him defenseless. Artemis then pulled out his magnum and kicked Deathgun down to the ground and started putting bullets into Deathgun's feet and his legs. Once his HP reached 1-20, Artemis pulled pointed his sword to Deathgun's neck and said, "Good riddance." Artemis then cut his head off.
The other two, Kirito and Sinon, walked down to where Artemis stood and Artemis said, "Wanna see if three people can pull of a souvenir grenade?"
The other two thought about it, and they decided they did, as they were tired and wanted to go to sleep. Artemis pulled out a grenade and the three did a group hug before blowing up, ending the tournament.
Everyone watching in ALO started cheering and the three logged off. Artemis however wasn't ready to end this yet, as he wanted to make sure that the other Deathgun wasn't free.
Sinon's Apartment
Artemis parked his mustang to see a tied up man, as well as Owen and Alex standing there hiding under the deck.
"Hey Caleb! Don't worry, we got this asshat under control." Owen said.
"So, let's make him talk, shall we?" Caleb said, taking the man and putting him in the trunk of his car and driving off to Alex's place, where they killed Suguo. They tied him in the same chair they killed Suguo on as well.
He woke up and said, "Where am I?"
"Oh, we just have to ask you a few questions. Who is the real Deathgun?" Caleb asked.
"Why should I tell you?" He asked.
"Oh my god dude, look around. You really wanna us off today?" Caleb asked. The other two emerged from behind the door.
"Who is Deathgun's real name, and where does he live before I take this and slam it down on your skull." Owen said, wielding a sledgehammer.
"Holy shit Owen, what the hell?" Caleb asked.
"Oh, this is nothing. I was watching the stream and I heard Deathgun say he killed Platia, so you know what? I'm gonna find out where he lives, and if this man over here doesn't speak, he's gonna regret it." Owen said.
