Eugeo POV

I woke up in a room, it was dark and it had no lights on but I have no time to be resting. I need to get out of these chambers to tell Asuna and alice about Kirito..

I know I am resting on the bed. I tried to get up but I am restrained by something, I looked to my right and left hand. They were chained up. It got me panicking as I try to scramble myself out of it. I looked around as the bedroom seems to be dark yet it's not cold like the underground jail. Am I in an intergity knight room?..

"You are awake." I heard a familiar voice as I turned my head to look at that direction. The figure is sitting there and looked at me. His eyes still dull and empty. "Kirito! Let me out of these chains." I said in a stern voice but he didn't give me a response. "The reason why you are in my chambers instead of the underground jail cell. I heard you escaped from there so I figure this place would be more easier to keep an eye on. After all.. I am permitted to execute you." He explained that like it is a normal thing for him.

"And why add these chains?!" I asked him since why is there two instead one since I am chained up to the bed stand. "It is because you broke one before in the underground jail so I attached another. Even if you use sacred arts, these metals won't break that easily." There goes my plan of trying to heat them up.

"No.. NO! I won't let you. Not until I get the real Kirito back! GIVE HIM BACK!"

"Enough talking..." I saw Kirito slowly raising his sword out from his scabbard. I begun to panic again and my wrists were trying to move out of these chains. He slowly walks up to me and I hear his footsteps getting closer and closer.

"The pontifex told me that I should let your death be bisected to halves and let you bleed to death. That way you can think about what you have done that ruined the peace of this world." He said as he continues approaching to me and I continue to struggle my way out of the chains.

"... I rather let the real Kirito kill me then you." I said out loud as Kirito raise his sword up towards my waist. "You're right. I am not "your" Kirito. It doesn't matter. Wanna know why that is, criminal? It's because I love myself. Except everyone here is annoying and just weaklings.."

"Just like you. I don't even know you. Yet thanks to your pity and weak attacks that I manage to take advantage too. You can say goodbye to your "Kirito"." Kirito's blade is up and he immediately tries to slash through my waist. I managed to break out of the right side of the chain due to it being attached by a wooden area as it broke.

The worst part is that I used my arm to block his attack. It sliced through as I didn't feel it at first, the blood pouring out of my upper arm. I rolled out of the bed and quickly back away from Kirito.

I heard a thump as I turned around to see my back landed on a wall. My eyes were in fear as my voice just felt lost and I don't know what to say. Kirito turned around and is approaching to me.

The pain kicked in as I started to scream from agony and the blood couldn't stop. I am in no position to move. "Kirito.. It hurts.. Heh.. Atleast you don't brag about having a scratch like this." I said out loud and I looked up at him. "It sure hurts when you and I argued at the academy. You said you didn't want to be my friend if I can't beat you.." my vision is getting hazy. I need to continue before I really die.

I started mumbling but it slowly got louder and louder. "I'm sorry, Kirito. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.. IM SORRY KIRITO!" The pain I am enduring is sure like I'm in fire but I kept apologizing like a child who got grounded by a father who is ready to beat the child up. The reason why I'm apologizing is that..

I can't do anything. I am weak. I can't even live up Kirito's sacrifice for me to stay alive.

"I'm sorry, Kirito. You can't save me this time."

Kirito raise his sword and didn't give any more final words but something triggered. A purple mark is glowing from his forehead of a triangle.  He let go of his night sky sword and I heard a clang of it landing it on the floor. He held his head tightly and screamed, "Ag-ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH" he let out a gut wrenching cry as the pain is execrating.

He backed away from me and hit himself against the wall opposite of me. He slowly started to fall to his knees as he continued to scream in pain. I can only sit there and watch as I continue to just softly speak his name. "Kirito.."

The screaming stopped as I see Kirito unconscious on the ground. I stood up, looking over my bloody missing lower arm. "System call... generate lum-" my spell is interrupted as I couldn't continue speaking, I wobbled my way to reach to Kirito and I collapsed to my knees. My body is failing on me if I'm loosing this much blood. "Syste-" I tried to speak but my voice is continuing to just.. Not want to talk due to the scream I had to let out by the pain.

I was close to him though. I heard the door opening and light is blinding me.
