THE UNEXPECTED HORROR

The Begining

Kazuto's p.o.v.

"Run, Eugeo!" I yelled as we both reached the main gate of our school. Alice and Asuna were also with us. Eugeo was running behind me while pulling Alice and Asuna along with him. Half the school had died due to some weird monsters attacking out of nowhere. The exit was right in front of us. But, reaching there wasn't easy as there were some terrible monsters on the way. However, we didn't stop. Thankfully, these strange monsters were standing on the sides, leaving a path between them.

"No matter what happens, don't stop!" Without turning my head, I told the three running behind me as I lifted the bat that I was holding to clear the path from them. Without second thoughts, I attacked every monster that ran toward me to protect everyone. At this point, it didn't matter who that monster used to be. We all then finally got out of the school and hid behind some boxes at the side, near the wall, to catch our breaths. It was a bit easy to escape from our school as these monsters were still attacking the students inside the school. So, the exit was almost empty.

"Now, we must go toward the parking lot and get our bikes so we-" I said while turning my head but stopped mid-sentence as I saw one person missing.

"Asuna?! Where did Asuna go?!" I immediately yelled while gritting my teeth. Eugeo and Alice also only then noticed.

"S-she was just behind me a moment ago." Alice said, Panic visible in her voice.

"I couldn't pay attention as I was also clearing the way." Eugeo defended.

"Omg! I think she is still inside, trying to find Yukki!" Alice yelled while her eyes widened.

"W-What...?" My voice trailed off as I turned my head and looked at our huge school.

'Damn it!' I internally screamed before standing up.

"I'm going to get her. Eugeo, you go toward the parking lot and drive home with Alice." I said while slowly Peeking from behind the boxes.

"Kirito, are you out of your mind?!" He used my other nickname this time. The one I always warn him not to use. But, this wasn't the time to argue about that.

"I have to go get her." I turned my head and whispered as it's not a good idea to yell too much.

"We don't even know if she's still....still........" He didn't finish his line. But, I completely understood what he was trying to say.

"No, she is alive." We both turned our heads behind us and looked at Alice.

"I can guarantee that she is alive. But, trapped in there with Yukki."

"How are you so sure?" Eugeo asked while raising his eyebrow.

"She is the top fencer in her family." Alice spoke earning a shocked look from both of us.

"Wait, Asuna is a swordswoman?" I asked while fully turning toward her.

"Yes, it's in her family. They teach swordsmanship to each member of the family." She explained. I and Eugeo slowly nodded our heads.

"Ok, then. I'm going in. Eugeo, follow the plan." He gradually sighed, finally giving up.

"Ok just...be careful." He said before standing up along with Alice to go toward the parking area. I nodded my head before lifting my bat and dashing out of the boxes with them following me. We all went our separate ways as we reached the gate again. I dashed toward the school from where I just escaped.

'Wait for me, Asuna!' I thought as I lifted my bat to attack the two monsters that were running toward me from the front.

"Hhyyaaaaaaaaaa!"
