Assasain's FairyTale Online (Sword Art Online Fanfic)

Asuna

I woke up on a soft bed with my hand aching and I realized it was from Kirito grippig my hand really hard. "Hey," he whispered loosening his grip.

"Hi," I whispered back sitting up. This was so different from real life, I was just poisoned but because my health bar is full I'm good as knew.

"I'm so glad your ok." Kirito smiled at me, removing his hushed voice. I gave a firm and short nod to agree.

"But I could feel my self slipping away... I wonder if dieing irl is like in the game. It felt so relaxing to just close my eyes and have no porblems anymore, you want to live but..." I let my hand which I was cleching go limb. "At the same time it felt nice, just floating in a pool of darkness forever..."

  Kirito grapped me by my shoulders abruptly standing up. "Don't you say that Jessica! Don't you dare say that! Floating in a infinity of darkness isn't relaxing just because they are no problems, that whole thing is a problem! Who wants to leave the people they love for a "peaceful" black void!" 

I managed to catch a single tear running down Kirito's cheek, I must have hit a nerve. "I'm sorry..." I said standing up hiding my face from him as I picked my stuff up.

"I guess you've suffered more then me, I've always been alone so I never had anyone too lose." I said flashing Kirito a straight look in the eyes then left to go home.

"I'm sorry..." Kirito stopped me as he began to sob. "I don't know how long I can keep this up." All I could see was pain in his eyes.

"Its the anniversary of Asuna's death... its been so long sense I've seen her..." Kirito began sobbing harder. I wanted to comfort him but I was frozen in place, I didn't need to comfort him. I was incapable.

"Its already been a weak in this world and its already starting to break us," I wanted to say something nice so I found the only words I could muster. "Kirito, live, live for Asuna, but don't live one griefing over her, she wouldn't want that for you, Be Happy."

And with that I left the room feeling like I had done what I could do for him.

I walked up to a black smith shop and decided to go in to look at the swords. The shop had different colored swords and different speeds. I was caught off guard by a familiar voice.

"Jessica?" Liz greeted as she approached me.

"Oh hey Liz this is your Black Smith?" I said glancing at the swords again.

"Mhm, I was a black smith in SAO so I wanted to continue with it." she explained.

"Then why were you on the front lines today? Not that I mind, you did save Kirito." I asked trying to not sound jealous.

"I wanted to test out my new sword and try my luck in battle. I see Kirito is as reckless as ever." Liz sighed.

  "Tell me about it, when we went hunting for food he got trapped by abunch of Koash Rabbits that started attacking him because he wasn't paying attention." I laughed and so did Liz.

"Hey Liz do you think you'd like to meet me by the exit of town, we can try out your sword together." I suggested pointing to the sword she was holding.

"I'd like that!" she smiled at me. Just then the bell of her front door rang and the door opened.

"Oh, customers!" Liz announced pulling off her gloves, but it only turned out to be Kirito.
