Kirito x reader

Chapter 4

I guess I just thought that you'd figure out if it seemed like you, and if it wasn't, then you'd just stop reading idk. No offense but I really don't care, I'm just writing because it reminds me of stuff. Anyway I think I'll add Yui next chapter.

remember Ena? uh huh. ive got a good idea for that. OH IT CAN BE A DREAM hmmm

"Y/N, onee-chan," Ena shouted, shaking me from my reverie.

"Yeah?" I stood up, and ran over to her. "Don't go so far away," I scolded. "We don't know what could happen. You could be killed!"

Ena, only 8 years old nodded. "I know, onee-chan. That's the reason why I want to fight. We have to get back to mommy and daddy."

My heart let out a wail of pain, and I clenched my jaw. "All right. Just, please, next time, don't stray so far away." I leaned down, and hugged her. "You're the only reason why I fight now," I whispered hoarsely into her small ear.

She hugged me back. "All right. Should we join a, a. . ." She frowned in concentration.

"A guild?"

She beams happily. "Yeah! We will be safer that way." She took my hand. "Let's go find a guild."

Of course, we found a guild. It happened too fast, and I didn't think about it; I just wanted us to be safe. The guild consisted of mostly men and younger guys, a few badass women and girls. They all had this serious air to them, and they glared down at Ena as if she'd be a nuisance. I hugged her closely.

"We'd like to join this guild," I said loudly, lacing confidence into my tone.

The leader, walked leisurely up to us. "You? And the pipsqueak?"

The group snickered.

"You judge her by her size, right?" I said, just hinting at the reference. "She's very strong, and knows a lot. Besides, the smaller the faster, am I right?"

The leader seemed to ponder this, and then glanced down. "You prove yourself to us, and you're in."

I tried to give them a wicked grin. "Thank you, sir."

We sat in the large mansion-like building, with clear windows, and concrete stones. We lay in a room by ourselves, the dim candle flickering dangerously.

"Onee-chan, I'm scared."

I hugged Ena closely, and murmured, "everything will be all right, we just have to survive."

"For how long?" she whimpered, wiping away tears.

"I don't know. Just be strong." But tears were threatening to fall from my eyes to. I couldn't let Ena see that, so I took a big breath, and stroked her soft hair. "We just have to act. Be strong, okay? Repeat after me-be strong."

"Be strong," she said, her voice quivering.

I hugged her once more. "All right. Now go to sleep. We don't know what they have planned for us tomorrow."

"You want me to steal?" I screeched, taking a step back.

The leader, who insisted on us calling him "Sir" as if it were his name, nodded. "We don't get around easily, and just by fighting. We steal."

My eyebrows furrowed. "I thought. . . well never mind."

"What? What did you think?" he asked, his voice soft and clipped.

"Well. . ." I faltered. "I thought you guys were a strong guild," I finished in a whisper.

He smirked. "We are. Just not the quintessential type. We get around by being sneaky."

I nodded slowly.

"And in return, you get fed, and protected."

I nodded again. "What do you want me to do?"

His lips curled up into a devilish grin. "You know the guild we're following, right?"

"Uh, Knights of the Blood Oath, right?" I answered, tracing my finger along the nice leather seat.

'Sir' sat in a throne like chair, behind a lacquered desk. "Yes. One of their members, Yuuki Asuna-"

"You want me to stea- I mean, kidnap someone?!"

"For ransom, obviously," he answered, deadpan. He rested his hand on his fist. "And then we will return her. No harm, whatsoever."

"Really?" I asked, disbelieving. I leaned back, and squinted at him, Shawn Spencer style. "Naw."

He nodded smoothly. "Yes."

I took a deep breath.

"And of course, if you refuse, I'll kick you out of our guild, and kill your sister."

"You-you. . . why in the world would you hurt a little girl?" I questioned, squinting even more. "I've decided. You officially are a monster!" I said grandly. "Know what, fine. Fine, I'll do it."

"Fantastic." He sat up. "I'm sure you know the current location of the guild, correct?"

"Y/N? Y/N, wake up," Kirito said urgently.

"Huh? Oh, hello, Kirito. . ." I rubbed my eyeballs.

He put an arm around me. "You were having a nightmare," he said softly, hugging me tightly.

"Oh, I was," I said in a deadpan. "Something scary."

"Why, is Asuna a threat?" he asks, sitting up in his black t-shirt. His black hair is messed up, squished against the right side of his face.

"No. . . I guess I was just having a bad dream, and she was in it?" I lied, and hugged the pillow. "Anyway, please, I wanna go back to sleep." I yawned, and shut my eyes.

"Alright." Kirito slid out of the bed, and walked to the bathroom. "See you later. Maybe we can head out?"

I shrugged. "Sure," I said, muffled by the pillow. He kissed my forehead softly, and tapped my shoulder reassuringly. Once Kirito left, I rolled over onto my back, and Ena flashed into my mind.

I'm sorry, I thought, heart wrenching violently with pain. I'm so, so sorry. Tears rushed to my eyes, and I squeezed them shut. I felt the warm trickle of water stream down my cheek. I sat up, and wiped off my eyes furiously.

No time to cry, I insisted, and jumped out of the bed. I swiped my hand, and dressed myself with just a touch of a button. Now, where to find Kirito. . . Nah, he'd want me to stay here. I guess. Jumping on the bed, I opened my inventory, and pulled out Doritos. Hopefully he'll come back soon. It's lonely here.
