Asuna and Kirito's AfterStory Vol. 2

"Again!"

Asuna was washing dishes while Faith was playing in her room. As she put one dish away after another, she thought about dinner choices. Afterwards, she went upstairs to check on Faith, she entered her room and saw Faith was coloring on her floor. Asuna walked in and sat next to her, Faith showed her picture to her mother who smiled at her.

"Good job!" Asuna said who took the picture of the loving family.

"Mama, where did dad go?" Faith asked curiously.

"He said that he went on a investigation with Hisaya, he'll be back soon."

Faith smiled and continued to draw when Asuna heard something from downstairs.

"What is it mama?" Faith asked.

Asuna held her finger up to her mouth. "Faith, hide under your bed or in you closet. Whatever happens do not open this closet door! Stay here until someone you know comes and gets you." Asuna heard another sound but this time it was closer, Faith heard it too and became frightened. "Now go." Asuna ordered. Faith went into the back of her closet and Asuna closed the door. After she made sure everything was secured she headed out into the hall. She didn't see anyone in the hallway so she slowly and quietly headed towards the stairs. At the bottom of the stairs, two men were standing and talking until they made eye contact with Asuna. They stared into each other's eyes for a moment before one of the men started to come up the stairs. They were dressed like black agents but Asuna knew they weren't agents.

"Who are you!?" Asuna ordered

The men didn't speak nor stop

"What are you doing in my house?!" She ordered again while starting to back up into the wall.

One of the men pinned her against the wall while the other walked past his partner and headed down the hall.

"Wait-"

Asuna was cut off with a hand around her throat but he didn't put any pressure on it. Asuna put her hands around the mans wrist put didn't do anything. The other man opened the nearest door (Faith's room) and looked around, Asuna was scared that the man might find Faith. She wiggled a bit but the man put more pressure on her neck, if she kept moving he would kill her and possibly kill her little girl. She stopped moving so he would stop putting pressure on her neck, which he did. The other man looked through the young girls room, he opened the closet but found nothing. Faith, knowing that he'd look through the closet, went further back and hid herself under shoes, clothes, and blankets. The man didn't see anyone so he closed the door and exited the room.

Asuna sighed with relief knowing that her little girl will be okay but what about her?

"Okay, let's hook her up." One of the men said as he entered the parents room. The other man grabbed her wrists and pulled her into the parents room. He tied her wrists together using a zip tie and pushed her on the bed. The other man tied her hands to the headboard and put a bandanna over her mouth, the other man held her ankles while the other got something from outside the room.

What are they going to do to me? Asuna thought as she laid there.

When the man came back, Asuna's eyes widened at the object he was holding.

The nerve gear?! She thought

Asuna tried to move but she couldn't, the man slipped it onto her head and yelled "Link Start!"

Asuna's body laid still, the men unattached all the zip ties and laid her body in a certain position then put a note on her nightstand. They left.

Kazuto and Hisaya were on their way, driving passed cars, buildings, and street lights. When they finally arrived, Kazuto jumped out of the car while it was barely stopping. He ran up to the front of the House without closing the door to the car, he noticed the front door lock was broken and smashed in. He got a nervous vibe and quickly headed inside, once inside, he looked around every corner just in case the thugs were still around. Once he knew the thugs weren't in the house he started to search for Asuna and Faith. The first place he went to was Faith's room, there were pencils and a coloring book on the floor but nothing out of the ordinary. He went to the closet and opened the door.
