Kirito's Pov
"Kirito!" Asuna yelled out to me as I stood on the edge of a cliff, she ran up to me and held my shoulders, tears ran down her cheeks "I'm so sorry Kirito I never realised until now ------ into ------ I'm sorry" I was so confused "w-what are you saying?" She let me go and the part of the cliff I was standing on broke away. As I fell off the cliff I closed my eyes, expecting to die from the fall, but when I opened my eyes again I was standing on a pile of body's, I gasped and looked around, they were all people I have killed, I tried to move but they started to grabbed my ankles and pull me in "Kirito" I looked at where the voice came from, Eugeo stood there, he was shaking and he looked terrified, no please don't be scared of me "Kirito- you-" he was lost for words, he kept staring at the bodies "you're a monster!" He yelled, he moved away from me, I shook my head, the bodies pull me in further "Eugeo... no- please I swear I didn't..... I never meant to hurt anyone-" "you're a monster!!!" He yelled again "stay away from me!!!" Eugeo turned and ran away into the darkness, I wanted to run after him, but the bodies kept pulling me in, suffocating me, I coildmt move, couldn't get out. I reached out my hand once again and nobody grabbed my hand "Kirito wake up!" I jolted up and looked around tears rolling down my face, I looked at the boy who woke me up, Eugeo was staring at me with a concerned look on his face "Eugeo..." I looked away from him and kept crying, Eugeo hugged me "Kirito it's ok, i'm here" I hesitantly hugged Eugeo back "Eugeo you don't think I'm a monster right? You wouldn't leave me alone right?" Eugeo pulled away and stated into my eyes "I would never leave you... and why would I think you're a monster?" He asked with hand hands on my shoulders, I can't tell him, I can't "nevermind I don't remember that part of my dream anymore" I smiled at him, he didn't look convinced but he obviously didn't want to push me "ok Kirito" Eugeo hugged me again, I hugged back, taking in his warmth, the comfort he gave me "ok let's get to work" I mumbled standing up.

At the Gigas Cider
Eugeo and I were chopping at the tree once again, it was my turn now and Eugeo was drawing in the dirt with a stick, I swung the axe at the tree one last time before sitting down panting, I looked at Eugeo "does this village have any stronger weapons?" I asked, Eugeo looked up from the ground and at me "well..... I have one thing we could use...." I smiled at him, he sighed "there is this sword I found in the end mountains, when Alice and I went there and.... she accidentally went into the dark territory" I listened, Eugeo had never told me what happened to her "that's what happened, and she was taken by an integrity knight the next day" he shook his head "but the sword has always been to heavy" he finished, I thought for a moment "can I see the sword?" I asked, Eugeo stared at me for a moment "you couldn't handle an axe but you think you can handle a heavy sword?" He asked, I smirked "the way I swung the axe was the way someone would swing a sword" I explained, he nodded "and how would you know that?" He asked with his arms crossed, I crossed my arms as well "I'm a swordsman, that's how" Eugeo's eyes widened "you remember your calling?!" He asked, smiling bright at me, I paused for a moment, then smiled "yeah I just remembered actually.... I'm a swordsman" he stood up "I'll go get the sword, wait here!" He rushed over to his tool shed. I waited patiently, when Eugeo came back he had a confused look, I titled my head "what is it?" I asked, he lifted what looked like a sword wrapped in a cloth "it's lighter...." he mumbled, I thought for a moment "well when we fought the goblins I noticed my weapon control went up, so maybe if our weapon control is high enough we can use it" I suggested, he took the cloth off of the sword and revealed a beautiful blue sword, with a rose on the handle, I gasped quietly, the sword was so beautiful, Eugeo gave me the sword. I took it out of the hold, I looked at the Gigas Cedar and then back at the sword "move back a bit" I told Eugeo, he nodded, I put myself in a good stance and stared at a certain spot on the tree, then I swung and put a deep cut into the tree, I smiled and looked at Eugeo, he gasped "that's..... that's deeper than any wood cutters has ever gotten in a lifetime!" He yelled, I nodded "at this rate.... if I train you to use a sword you can cut this tree down in no time" I put the sword away and Eugeo just stared at me "y-you'll train me?" He asked, I nodded "of course.... if you want" he looked down thinking for a moment, then he smiled "I could travel to Centoria.... and I could find Alice" he mumbled, I nodded "and I'll help you.... I will be by your side... so what do you say?" I held out my hand "partners?" I asked, he nodded and took my hand "partners!" We shook each other's hands, then he asked "by the way what's your sword style called?" I thought for a moment, what is it called? An idea popped into my mind and I smiled "Aincrad.... it's called Aincrad" he nodded "Aincrad.... sounds awesome" I laughed, oh he has no idea.
