The Knight And The Swordsman

Taken Away

In the Forest

Kirito's POV

In the morning me Alice were the only ones that had woken up so we decided to go and get fresh air while we had done this Alice had asked me some weird questions ask about Asuna I just told her that we are just friends but it seemed that Alice had been relieved but when I tried asking her she got all red. Why was she red, did I do something wrong, did I hurt her feelings, I don't know. So I decided to say sorry to Alice but when I did Alice had told me I did nothing wrong but I asked her why she was red but I didn't get an answer instead I got a kiss on the cheek. I wondered why she did this I had asked myself if she really felt that way about me but then I got this weird feeling in my chest but every time I think of Alice this feeling get bigger and bigger whatever make me feel this way for Alice I might like it even if I had a crush on Asuna back in SAO but those feelings dissipated when I first meet Alice.

It's been a couple of hours since then and everyone was ready to move out of the forest and get closer to Vecta while I didn't know what his true plans were until now but now the only thing for me to do is protect Alice with my life and make sure everything according to plan Asuna had told us that Eugeo and Alice were no longer Underworlders but now since they had broken the seal of the right eye they are just regular humans just like me and Asuna but what was he going to use Alice for I wasn't going to let him use Alice like a tool for his own games I promised Alice that I would protect her and Eugeo but if I can't even do this then what am I a weak person, No i'm not going to give in that easily I am going to make sure that every person that resides in the Underworld right now will be protected by me even If it cost me my life in this world I can always come back but if the people who aren't from the real world die in this one they wont come back ever so that is why I will protect anyone and everyone, If I can't reach you in time I will come save you for sure.

(In The Middle Of Nowhere)

Its been a couple of hours since we left the forest and we only met up with some Dark Territory Knights but it seems to be awfully quiet like nobody was to be found until beams of red had struck the ground and made Red Knights appear a couple of mels away, All I could really see that there had been a lot of them maybe like 20,000 of the red knights but then they had started talking like they were American wait a minute why are the Americans here they shouldn't be here this is a private server so how did they log into the underworld. Of course everyone had gotten off of their horses getting ready to attack but they weren't attacking us right now they were attacking the dark territory so I told Asuna what is probably going on and told her to make a bridge all the way across here, she did but more started flooding the underworld. When some people from the Dark Territory had made it across so did the red knights so everyone started attacking them but when we killed them they had disappeared into shards of glass like what happened back in SAO when someone dies or a monster dies they explode into shards of glass then disappear. Just then as I was fighting I could see Alice getting farther away from us, I had screamed for her to come back but it didn't work it looks like she was to far but just then I could see a black dragon with a person wearing dark armour on top of it grabbing Alice and making his way to the World's End Alter.

Kirito: Alice noooooo

Bercouli: I'll go get her back you guy go and deal with these guys

Kirito: OK go get her back

30 minutes passed and every red knight in the area had been defeated with the help of Iskahn and Shatia but there had no sign of Bercouli coming back so I was planning on going after them but Eugeo had stopped me and said that the commander could do this. Of course I believed him because Eugeo has been there for me ever since we were born.

(Travelling North)

It has been a while since we started going to the last known location of Alice and Bercouli of course I wasn't going to let Vecta get to her but before I could do anything a bunch of red knights had surrounded us, we were trapped so is this the end no it wasn't a person flying in the sky had shot an arrow making it explode widespread killing all the knights as soon as the darkness from the blast had subsided making me see who the person was it was another one of my good friends Sinon.

Asuna: Sinonon (Hugs Sinon)

Kirito: Hey Sinon nice of you to join in

Sinon: Good to see you again Kirito last time I saw you was at the dice cafe

Kirito: Yeah Yeah so anything ahead of us that we should know

Sinon: Yeah there seems to be a abandoned ruins near here

Kirito: Good oh wait minute you can fly right

Sinon: Yeah why

Kirito: We need you to go further that the ruins until you see Alice she has long blond hair and deep blue eyes also she is wearing golden armour so she won't be able to miss but I do need you to go

Sinon: Yeah will do Kirito but it is really good to see you again

Kirito: You too but I think you should leave before he takes Alice away

Sinon: Cya

After Sinon had gone to chase Vecta and Bercouli who had probably had reached him by now let's just hope that he does. While we had arrived at the Abandoned Ruins everyone needed to take a break of course that Break didn't last long as I thought it would but those red beams surrounded us again but this time it wasn't the Americans it was China and Korea.
