Black And White (Kirito Love Story)

Chapter 8. 'Insane'

Me and Kirito were hunting for XP in the forest. We improved on leveling up and were about to go home until we heard a scream. We looked at each other, before nodding to each other and ran towards the direction of the scream.

In front of us were about 5 gorillas about to attack a girl against a tree. She had brown hair in high pigtails, browning-red eyes and she was wearing red armour. Her HP was really low. Before the gorilla could attack, Me and Kirito slashed it, then the rest, sending them to pixels. We stared at the girl who stared at us in awe, mainly Kirito. She started crying, holding a feather in her hand.

"Pina... Pina...!" She cried. Kirito and I stared at her in pity as she clutched the feather tightly, but gently as she cried.

"Does that feather have a name on it?" I ask. She tapped the feather and it read 'Pina's Heart'.

"Pina's... Heart..." The girl started sobbing louder. Kirito and I didn't know what to do, so we just stood there awkwardly, letting her get the saddness all out.

"Hey, if you have the heart, then you can revive Pina." Kirito said. The girl looked up at him and smiled, red coating her cheeks.

"Great! How can I revive Pina!"

"Well, there's a place where you can revive any pet on the 47th floor called the Hill of Memories." Kirito stated. The girls eyes lit up with hope

"Then, I'll go there! I'll go there to revive Pina!" The girl said

"Oh! I haven't even told you my name yet, have I? Well, my name's Silica!" Silica smiled

"I'm Kirito."

"I'm Emiko."

"Though, the revival item can only be affective within 3 days of their death." I said. Her face dropped with disappointment, draining all the hope.

"Oh... Oh no.... Pina...." The girl whispered.

"........... It's ok. Three days is more than enough." Kirito said, opening his menu and gave her a few items. "We'll acompany you. These items should help you become more stronger." Kirito said.

"Thank you, Kirito-san, but... Why are you doing all this for me?" Silica asked. Kirito put a hand on his forehead.

"..... promise me you won't laugh if I tell you..." Kirito muttered. Silica put a determined face on and nodded. Kirito averted his gaze and met my eyes. "Emiko, you too." Kirito muttered. I smile akwardly and nodded, crossing my fingers behind my back. Kirito tilted his head up slightly amd sighed, hesitating.

"I'm willing to do all this for you, because....... You look like my sister..." Kirito muttered.  Silica stared at him for a moment before bursting into giggles. Kirito growled softly as he hid his eyes with his hand. I smiled and giggled slightly before removing his hand.

"It's nothing to be embarressed about... We're just giggling about the fact that Silica looks like your sister." I said like it was the most simplest thing in the world. Kirito groaned and hid his face again. Welp, that didn't help...

"Hehehe... I'm sorry." Silica giggled. "I'm sure your sister's very pretty" silica smiled. Kirito smiled back. A wave on unknowned feelings washed over me. I don't know what it is, but I don't like the feeling.

~time skip~

Me, Kirito and Silica were walking to town. We were talking a bit of PK-ing and stuff. Untill a girl with short curly red hair and heavy makeup walked towards us with a few men too.

"Silica! How are you?! I see you made it out of the forest alive! Where's your little dragon friend?" The red-haired girl said with obvious fake concern and shock.
