"Lilly!?"

"Yes, that is my name. Hello.." She responded.

"W-Wait, are you 10 years old?" You said quietly.

"No, I'm 11. But you were close enough. Anyways, welcome. I hope you enjoy yourself, you'll be staying here for a while." She said, while turning her back to you.

"No! Why are you doing this?" You say, as you keep struggling to get out of the chains.

"Isn't it obvious? Us red players need you. We need your levels, items, and exp." She said, with a devilish smirk.

How can a little girl be this smart?

"Are you sure you're 11?" Kirito says, with a tired face.

"Yes. What? Do you want me to take an age test or something?" She said as she rolls her eyes.

"Greaaat. Y/N. Hold on, I'm gonna..." Kirito struggled on the chains, almost letting himself out.

"Wow, you're pretty strong for a 16 year old." The little girl said, as she tightened the chains harder on Kirito.

Asuna jolted up and she cringed.

"Who..are you?" She said while coughing.

"Don't touch them! I'll kill you!" She said as she somehow managed to sprint towards the girl, but the chains held her back.

Concentrate.

Concentrate.

Concentrate.

Maybe there's a way to get out of here.

Before you could've done anything, someone knocked the doors down.

A girl with pink hair and a mace started beating the crap out of the girl. It was kind of... Sad?? I guess..? You were a bit scared, but you saw that she was a green player.

The little girl quickly cloaked out of the room, leaving smoke.

You all coughed and you looked at the girl.

"No thank you, gracias?" The girl said as she looked at everyone that she freed.

"Thank you so much, what's your name?" Kirito said as he shook her hand.

"My name is Lisbeth. I'm Asuna's friend. She called me for help, you didn't know?" She said.

You and Kirito shook your heads.

"I did it while I was 'asleep.'" Asuna said as she made a quote gesture with her hand.

"Sorry for taking too long, did you guys get hurt?" Asuna smiled.

"Noope. But that's really smart!" You said and laughed.

"Thank you..." Asuna said as she started coughing really loudly.

"I can't... handle..." She said while coughing.

"Asuna??" You said as she then stopped coughing and stared at the wall.

"Let's go, dumbheads. we're wasting time." She said as she shoved Lisbeth to the side.

"Asuna, what's your problem?!" Lisbeth said as she grabbed her.

"I'm so sorry.. it's not me.. anything I say that's mean, ignore--" She started coughing again.

"I'm just sick. Do your work and stop bothering me. I'm going home." She said in a different tone.

...

Is she possessed or something?

Lisbeth helped Asuna out and you faced Kirito.

"You alright?" He said as he watched Asuna and Lisbeth leave.

"Mmmhm." You nodded.

"What was that, Kirito? No child can kill people like that, y'know? Do you think Liz killed her for good?"

"No. I saw her cloak before she left. Liz got her down to low health though. I've never seen a skill like that in SAO. And yes, you're right. No child can kill people out of pleasure. Something is either controlling or forcing her to do it."

He then opened the menu.

"What are you doing?" You asked him.

"Checking my skills. Listen, we need to go to the plaza."

"What..? Why-"

"Just follow my lead, Y/N."

You nodded.

He took your hand and led you to the plaza.
