Complicated

<Sortiliena PoV>

We arrived on the scene to a busted down door and lots of men that were on the floor knocked out. But then we saw a gruesome sight. It was a man pinned against the wall covered in blood and stab wounds on his chest. The police recovered his body but he was still conscious. I can take his memories and see what happened here. Because from what it seemed he was tortured by a devil... that's when I thought about Kirito and the pact he made. It can't be. I walked over to his body with Asuna and Sugu behind.

"Your boy... is a monster" He whimpers out and let's out a chuckle. "Shut up!" I growl back to him. "He's beyond repair I'll tell you that" He says and laughs again but Asuna slaps him with rage. "Shut up you creep! He's no monster!" She screams in his face. "You'll see" the man says looking at me. The extent of his injuries made me believe that this was done by an experienced torturer.

"We found him!" A police officer called out and the three of us ran over to him and saw Kirito on the floor with a little girl in his arms passed out as well. Asuna runs over to him and checks his pulse and is relieved. "Just passed out." She says to us.

"Huh... who are you!" The girl woke up and shouted at Asuna. She wriggled out of Kirito's arms and opened her arms protecting Kirito's body. "You will not touch him!" She says. But the paramedics made their way over and picked up his body and the young girl lost it.

"Hey! Don't take him! I don't want to be alone! He's all I have!" She said and sobbed into one of their legs but Asuna walked over and hugged her tightly. "It's okay now... he's just getting healed up so he can talk and play with you!" She says and the girl seems to calm down a little. "Promise?" She says. I walk over and pat her head. "Promise! We are his friends and that is his younger sister" I say pointing to Sugu who walks over and pats her head.

"My name is Sugu!"

"I'm Sortiliena but you can call me big sis" I say.

"I'm Asuna! Nice to meet you" Asuna says and stands up holding her hand.

"My name is Yui... he gave me that name" Yui says pointing to Kirito's body. We all smile. He is her hope isn't he. I guess he has some morals still inside him and then I thought back to the memory I extracted. I don't want to see what he did. It will be scarring to watch.

"We'll be taking these people and leaving now... tell thanks to the black Swordsman from us." The policeman says and walks off with the others who held all the bandits.

"Come on lets take her home" Asuna says and picks her up and carries her in her arms. The two of them looked so cute together like mother and daughter. It was cute!

"I just hope she doesn't involve Calem" Sugu says to me as we walk back. I nod. I had to put up the nice girl act with him but I could tell his intentions were dark. But not as dark as what I can feel from Kirito these days... I take a look at him and sigh. I personally didn't like the fact he made a pact with the DEVIL. The most feared and evil being to ever exist. I feel like he's been used and deceived by it so that it can gain a vessel.

I'll talk to him again... when he wakes up. But first I need to see this memory.

<Time Skip - 3 days>

I've had nightmares. Watching that memory. Kirito's emotions and appearance scares me a lot. But the eyes he gave to him. Those were of pure evil and no remorse. He's been tainted since his parents death. I didn't show Asuna or Sugu. They would not recognise their loved one one bit. And showing Yui would just scare her even more. I can't. Kirito was hellbent on revenge.

But he had no soul anymore so I can't blame him for the way he is acting. But the torture methods were so brutal and disgusting. It felt like Kirito was the criminal not Kuradeel. But from the dialogue it seemed Kirito was tortured last year by the same man so I can see where he picked this up. But why did he never tell me? He always tells me things. Like the killers of his parents. Everyone else thinks it was a car accident.

"Sortiliena senpai! Kirito is awake" Asuna says walking into my room with Yui in her hands. Well one things that changed. Less Calem. Well actually no Calem. Asuna spent all her time with Yui helping her settle and playing with her. "Hey Asuna what happened between you and Calem?" I ask.

"Well I'm thinking about Kirito's words. He told me not to hang out with him at first but then didn't stop me from meeting with him. I found that strange. But I guess he didn't want to hurt me because when he said he still doesn't trust Calem I started to believe him to. He has cheated on me... but I don't know I'll deal with it later" She says shaking her head.

"Who is Calem mommy?" Yui says.

"Oh just someone I know don't worry. He's not a good person" She says. And I was surprised to hear that from her mouth. She's finally realising that all this time she's just wanted Kirito to notice her love for him. "Mommy eh Asuna?" I smirk. And walk to her and pat her shoulder. "If you want to break up do it I suggest. And then I can help with Kirito kun" I whisper to her and I saw her blush redder then tomato.

"Senpai!" She says pouting in embarrassment.

"It's better to be honest right?" I say and head downstairs to get ready to see Kirito kun.

<Asuna's PoV>

"She is right... on the seaside school trip I'll break up with Calem!" I say.

"Mommy lets go meet daddy!" Yui calls.

"Daddy!" I blush.

"Yeah! And you're my mommy!"
