SAO: Alicization High and Beyond [ Part 2 ]

Go Forward, No Matter What! [Pt. 1]

[ The mission of retrieving Dekarusu Sumisu and infiltrate the Axiom Church begins now! The group is now inside and they're on the first floor - ]

"Remember everyone, keep your guard up. We don't know who'll get the drop on us..." Fanatio said as everyone else gets their weapons ready. Then as they stop to see where to go next

"Where to go next?" Renly said as Sheyta spoke

"Look, there are stairs." Sheyta said

Fanatio:
"So I guess we'll have to use the stairs! Let's go!"

"Right!" (Asuna)
"Right!" (Eugeo)
"Right!" (Renly)
"Right!" (Sheyta)

[ The group managed to go through the 1st floor to the 4th floor... now they're in the 5th floor... ]

Fanatio:
"?!" Fanatio gave a signal for the rest to stop moving. Then Sheyta spoke to Fanatio

"What's wrong?" Sheyta ask

Fanatio:
"Something's not right..."

"What you mean, Fanatio-Sensei?" Asuna said

Fanatio:
"We were able to enter the church without any guards or any other security to stop us from infiltrating any further. Somehow... it was too easy."

"Hm... you're right. I have a feeling that we're running into their trap!" Sheyta said

"A trap?!" Asuna said

Fanatio:
"Hm. You may be right - In that case, if we're going to run into a trap, I'll take the lead on that. So, let's keep going. So don't stop and hesitate everyone."

"Right!" (Asuna)
"Right!" (Eugeo)
"Right!" (Renly)
"Right!" (Sheyta)

[ The group began to move forward again as the five swordsmen/women keep moving forward to accomplish their mission... ]

[ The scenery change of to Deku Black... as he's with Deku, who's still inside the coffin with the black smoke leaking out... ]

Deku Black's POV

Deku Black:
"..." I suddenly stop my tracks as I was going to the 75th floor. "Hm... damnit. I can't even decide if I want to let Deku awaken in the 70th or the 75 floor?!" I was starting to overthink my options for Deku to revive. "Damn! Now I'm starting to act like Deku when he sometimes overthink things..."
*Sigh*
"I could just hurry up and go to Lady Quinella's Room on the 100th floor... but since she's still asleep after she went inside of Deku's dream beforehand, I could just go and join PoH - No... I actually wanted to see Deku's revival... I guess I'll just go back to the 70th floor and wait until then..."

[ I carried Deku back to the 70th floor - To wait for his revival of the Curse Mark... and to see our intruders faces when the time is right! But of course... for the intruders -]

Deku Black:
"Right... I need to release them... even though they're dead already..."

[ I immediately unleash an "Reanimate" signal to pursuit the intruders as soon as I reached back to the 70th floor... ]

"Sorry Lady Quinella, but I just can't help but to be really curious and excited about this... but you'll see your 'Heavens' Curse Mark soon after he revived."

No ones POV

[ With Fanatio and Co. still keeps on moving forward on the mission... they're on the 15th Floor of the Axiom Church... and yet, still not a single person has ever stopped them for infiltrating any further... ]

Asuna:
"(This is really weird... not a single person or a group has ever got in our way...? This is getting too odd.)" Asuna thought to herself

[ Then a minute later - ]
