The Knight And The Swordsman

He Came Back

Alice POV

All I remember from last night was me bringing Kirito to the bed and falling asleep when I had woken up. The next day I had heard a boy's voice and it sounded so familiar and yet so far away I had opened my eyes to a black hair boy who had been telling me to wake up. When I had seen the boy I wasn't thinking right and hugged him then I heard a thing coming from the inside of the boy it had been a heartbeat. Every time I tried to hug the boy in the wheelchair I heard no heartbeat but now I can see the boy has been awake no Kirito is awake. My eyes started to get watery. I had been crying so much that one spot on KIrito's shirt was soaked. I had heard another thing from Kirito but this time it was different then the last time. I had seen him acting more calm and nicer. Well I mean now he isn't calling me an idiot like last time. When we were on the outside of the Central Cathedral Kirito had told me a bunch of stuff like how the Pontifex was just using us as puppets and how I was born in a village called Ruild and that I had a sister called Selka also that I was childhood friends with Eugeo who isn't here right now.

I was still hugging Kirito. I had felt warm a bit but now wasn't the time for that. I had to make breakfast for the both of us then we would talk. I had gotten up from my bed and pushed the wheelchair to Kirito because it seems he can't walk yet he was so skinny. Once he had gotten on the wheel chair I had pushed Kirito outside of the log house to meet Amayori. I had left him with her for the time being. I had finished breakfast and told Kirito that it is time for us to eat.

30 Minutes Later

Me and Kirito had been finishing our food it seemed that he was happy to be awake because now he was able to eat dinner better I was so happy but something weird was going on with me my head was hot again I don't know what this feeling is but it feels great but now wasn't the time for that it was time for us to take our morning walk so I had grabbed the wheel chair and pushed him it seemed that he wanted his sword that had been on the wall so I had grabbed it and told Kirito to hold the sword tight but then he had told me something. "Hey Alice where is Eugeo he is here isn't he" I had said no then Kirito had wanted to know if he was alive I had told him that he is but he doesn't know where we were because I didn't tell him where we were at but I had told him that I would find a way to bring you back to us.

Kirito's POV

Hey Alice I want to say something to you that me and Eugeo wanted to say to you and everyone that we love you and everyone who resides in the underworld and don't worry about a thing we will protect you so don't worry. When I had said this to Alice it seems that her face had gotten red wait maybe she thought that I loved her romantically well I mean I do have some feelings for her but I still love Asuna but before I could say anything else Alice had said a name that name was Asuna wait how did she know Asuna is she her just how in the world did she know her then Alice had said "I heard you say that name when we were in the Cathedral and before you had gotten in that state". Oh did I say that out loud well she knows now so I had told her that I love Asuna and she is somewhere that I can't reach but then Alice was acting the strange that she had start to hug me without saying a thing, What is going on why is Alice hugging so much I know that everyone misses me but why was she doing this then I had heard Alice say something but it was super quiet so I couldn't hear that much "Kirito you are super d-e-n-s-e, Wait say that again I couldn't hear that last part Alice "Nope" Alice had said while smiling.

4 Hours Later

Alice's POV

I can't believe I did that. Why did I just hug Kirito, the person who had been there for me and taught me new things. Kirito had been at the tree that Eugeo and him had knocked down it seemed that he had been sad I didn't know why maybe because he misses the person called Asuna or maybe it's Eugeo no that wasn't it if he did he would have been gone by now, should I ask him what is wrong with him, you know what I will K-Kirito is something bothering you well I mean your acting more weirder than usual, "Oh hey Alice no i'm fine I was just thinking about something it really its something important it's about the dark territory's invasion and just how many deaths there will be". Hey don't worry about that Kirito i'm sure that you will think of something that reduces the death while saying this to Kirito I had felt uneasy like someone was watching us or someone is trying to attack us but then I had seen a monster that had looked big but it was no deal but the bad thing is I don't have my sword I guess I have to resort to the arts ''System Call Generate kiro genic element form arrow shape DISCHARGE", the monster that had tried to attack us while we are trying to rest had died then a golden light had surrounded it and it had disappear, I had told Kirito that we should go because it was almost dark and there might be monsters around here so I had grabbed Kirito and put him on to the wheel chair and pushed him all the way home. Once we had gotten home I had pushed Kirito to the room to rest, while I had been making dinner I had heard and noise coming from outside it wasn't human it sounded like another dragon the dinner had to wait I had grabbed my sword preparing for a fight but it seems that I was wrong when I had gotten outside it wasn't a integrity knight that found me and Kirito no it was someone that me and Kirito knew far to long it had been Eugeo, I had told Eugeo to come on in the log cabin and I had told him that I have a surprise for him of course he did follow me but when I had gotten a good look at Eugeo it seemed that something was wrong with him or something had been bothering him. Once we had gotten inside Eugeo had put all of his stuff down and I had put my sword back on the wall with Kirito's sword next to it then I had grabbed the food that I had been making for dinner and placed food into each bowl then something unexpected came out of Eugeo's mouth "look Alice we need you and Kirito to come back a lot has been happening at the Cathedral and Becouli needs to talk to you", ok Eugeo we will talk about this later but now its time for dinner but first I have to get someone when I was leaving I had looked at Eugeo who had looked happy again maybe seeing Kirito again will make him be more happy, I had opened the door to see that Kirito had been awake already but before I could say anything I had seen Kirito crying then I ran over to him and hugged him because it seems that something bad had happened to him then I had told him that everything will be ok and that someone is here so I need you to come out maybe you get better from see him.
