the destroyer and the balancer

keeper of the abyss

Sira's pov
I walk through the Town of Beginnings with error and John. I had a lead on where one of my brothers were since a rumor had started, talking about a skeleton that stole from a merchant because he was Col less and then flew away on feathered wings bound around his neck where two scarves listed on his sides. That sounded exactly like Abyss and he was one of the youngest of my family. He was strong and intense when needed to be. Error had a run-in before with him and completely caught our destroyer off guard. I slowly hold my hand on my sword as i spot the Liberation Army guild. We had a bad run in that completely went wrong when they realized that we weren't human. Now these guys were lower level then us so i figured they could help me. I slowly walked foward, a relaxed yet alert position as i continue." Hey i was wondering if you guys had seen the skeleton with wings?" I pull out a picture of abyss," he should look similar to this." One of the army guys pale and nods" i was the one who witnessed it, i tried to catch him but his scarves suddenly changed and he flew off. I'm pretty sure he's still here though. Those rumors have been growing, why are you looking for him?" i put the picture back and i say" he may be someone i know, all i know is that once i find him he will be out of your hair till we get out of this game, past that, well thats by chance." The man nods and he says" i was planning on searching for him tonight, just to see if i can offer him some Col, i've got plenty to cover me for months." I smile and nod" us 3 will help you then, the more eyes the better." He nods with a smile
Time skip
I finish upgrading my gear as night falls and i go to the address the guard told us to meet at. I let my wings curl off my chest, the disguise wearing off and my eyes flare as they turn orange, my hair lightes on fire as it turns from a chocolate brown to a fiery red. John fades his camo and it shows his black inky self, his horns sharp at the tips. Error sheds his as well, his mismatched eyes shining in the dark, the three of us stay to the shadows to advoid detection by anyone. Something catches my eye out of my perephial and i walk over to it, my heels clicking against the cobblestone. I pick up a small piece of a crystal seed, something that doesn't exsist in SAO. I smile and i say" he's still here alright, he's left me a trail." Error nods" i ReMEmBeR tHOse StUpId sEEdS, tHey sProUt iNtO hIs PIlLaRs." I nod" so if we spot a grown one then we'll know where to go." Error nods and the guard comes out. I needed to find him soon, he was probably fearful of his life out there somewhere without me here to help.
