Survive or Die

Silica's POV

"What?You got that lizard to heal you.You don't need heal crystals."

"What about you?You never fight in the front!"I argued."So do you need crystals?"

"Of course I do...I'm not a child idol like you Silica.So boys won't heal me."She smirked.I glared at her.

"Come on you two.."Someone in my guild tried to stop us but I had enough.

"Fine.I don't need items.I won't be partying with you anyone.There are plenty of parties that want me!"I said and stormed off into the woods.I don't need them!

"Hey Silica!"They called me but I ignored them.Its just gonna be me and Pina and its gonna be awesome!

-----TIME LAPSE-----

I breath heavily as Pina comes to my side.The monkey-ape looking type of dude aim towards me but I quickly jump out of the way.Another one of his friends tries to hit me but I jump again.Take a deep breath Silica.You can do this.You got Pina.Pina comes next to me and heals me right up.I reach into my pocket.Wait.

I don't have any healing items?!

A monkey hit me making me fly to the tree where I myself on it.A monkey walks towards me.I look around trying to find my dagger.Where is it?!?!I look up.He gets ready to hit me but then.......Pina blocks it.She falls to the ground a couple feet next to me.

"Pina!"I scream running towards her.

"Pina!Pina!"I cry as I hug her.Her HP went all the way down.

"Pina!Are you evolving?!"I hoped.

"Please Pina!Don't leave me!"I cry but she shatters into crystals.I freeze.Pina.I hear the monkeys walk over here, I turn to face them.The middle one gets ready to hit me but they explode into crystals.W-What?....I see this really cute black headed guy with his black sword next to this short brown headed girl with her sword in her hands.I stare at them in awe.

"Um can you please stop staring at us?"The girl with short brown hair asks.

"Pina..."I finally let out.I turn to a feather of Pina.

"Please don't leave me alone."I cried as I put my face to her feather.

"What's that feather?"The boy asked.I stopped crying to answer him.

"It's Pina.My partner..."I answer.

"Your a beast tamer?"He asked.I nodded.

"I'm sorry.We weren't able save you friend."He said.I shook my head no.

"No I was being stupid.I was stupid to think I could make it through the forest on my own."I looked up at him."Thank you for saving me.You too."I say looking at the girl.

"Does that feather happen to have a item name?"He asked sitting next to me.I tapped on it making it show its item name.Pina's Heart.I sob and cry even more.

"Well I can see you have your own thing going on here.Not gonna intrude.I'm just gonna find myself a spot without any crying children.Oh look there's one there."The girl says.I stop crying and look at her.

"Ava!"The boy hissed.

"Aren't you gonna stay here with me and ask me what's wrong?Like that boy?"I asked.

"Yea I'm not gonna pull the pin on that grenade."She said.I sighed.

"Your right.I'm sorry.This isn't your fault."I say and her eyes widen.She freezes.She runs towards me.

"What wrong?"She asks quickly.

"Well I guess it started when I was born.My mom was a bit of a drinker..."I started.I could hear Ava groan.

-----TIME LAPSE-----

Ava's POV

"So I started fighting those monkey type of monsters.Then Pina died and you know the rest."She finally ended.I bang my head on the table in tell she finishes.My forehead was red.

"Do I ever!I never unknow stuff!These brain cells could have made the perfect plan to get out of this game, but instead I memorized what type of crayons you liked to eat when you were four!"I tell her.

"I liked the purple ones."She admitted.

"Yea I know the blue ones were to tart."I sighed.Kirito laughed at me.

"Anyways we can tell you how to revive you dragon."Kirito says.She gasp.

"Really?!"She scream.Everyone looks at us.

"Please I want to be able to hear Silica."I says.

"Right.Sorry.So how can I revive Pina?"She ask them.

"On the south side of floor 47, there's a field dungeon called the hill of memories.I've heard that the flower that blooms at its top can revive a pet."Kirito tells me.

"Floor 47..."She sighed.

"I can give you enough armor to pick you up a few levels."Kirito says.

"Thank you so much!But even then I won't have enough..."She look up at us."Can you help me?"She ask.

"Sweetie no language on earth can tell you how little I care.A calculator can NOT multiple how many fucks I do NOT I give.Nothing in the universe can count-"I was cut off by Kirito.

"Ava I think she gets the point."He sighed.

"Please!I know it isn't you fault but-"I cut her off.

"We'll do it!"I say getting up from my seat.Your fault...

Your fault.

Your fault.

"Kirito?"She turns to him."Will you help me?"She asked him.

"Sure."

"Why?"

"If you promise not to laugh I'll tell you."

"Promise."

"You look like my sister."He said and I giggled a bit.

"I'm sorry.Thanks for helping me though."She smiled at both of us.

-----TIME LAPSE-----

"There's Silica!"I hear and turn that direction.

"Your late!We were worried!"I fat,short man said running towards us with a skinny man.

"Um..."Silica mumbled.

"Let's party sometime!We can go where ever you want."The skinny man told her.

"Um that very kind of you but...."She looked at us and grabbed Kirito's arm.I glared at her."I'll be partying with them for a while."She laughed nervously.

"Yea so fuck off fatty and stick."I glare at them.They glared back.We all walked away from them.

"I apologized for that."She apologized.

"Your fans?"I say looking back at them.

"You must be popular."Kirito chuckled.

"No..."She said sighing."They just want me along as a mascot.But I got a full of myself when they began calling me 'Dragon Tamer Silica."She sigh looking down getting teary.Man she cries a lot.

"Don't worry.We'll make it in time."Kirito says patting her hair.He never does that with me.Wait.Why do I care?!

"Right."She said nodding.We all agreed to find a hotel to stay in.

"So where do you live?"She asked Kirito.

"With Ava on floor 50."He answered.

"Oh.Are you two dating?"She asked us.My face turned red.

"N-No!We're just friends."I laughed nervously.At the corner of my eye I saw Kirito blushing.

"Oh Silica!"I hear and turn to see this red-headed girl with other people.

"Oh my god how are you?!"She asked way way way way way way to cheerfully.I don't like her already.Then again I hate people.

"I'm fine."Silica mumbles.

"Where's your little dragon friend?"That women asked Silica.

"Pina....died."

"Aw that's too bad.She was very....useful."

"She right you know.Those little hamsters are very helpful."I say.

"She's not a hamster Ava."She hiss at me.

"Oh Ava is it?And who's he?"She asked pointing at Kirito.

"I'm Kirito."

"Well so are you guys her new teammates?Thats adorable!It nice to see Silica found someone on her level.Plus she's actually found a boy to heal her.Shocker."She smirked.

I laughed at her and then got serious."What?"I asked her.

"No no no is cute!I love how you try to act all tough and Kirito over there is the hero."She got in my face.I turn red with anger.

This bitch-

"Come on guys.We're leaving."Kirito says calmly and we walk off to the hotel room.

We all walk into our hotel room but I asked Kirito where was mine.

"Um is it okay if we share the same hotel room?You know money and all..."He asked nervously.Um....What do I say?!

"Y-Yea!Sure.Fine with me."I stuttered.We both walked into our hotel room and got ready for bed.

"Hey I'm gonna go with Silica to talk about floor 47.Is it okay if you stay here?"He asked me.Why does he want to talk to Silica?

AND WHY DO I CARE?!?!?!

"Yea sure go ahead."I told him and he smiled at me.

"Cool.See you in a bit."He smiled and left.Oh god Ava.What is wrong with you?Just think about leaving this game and nothing else.........your sister.......

I close my eyes and drift of to sleep.

-----TIME LAPSE-----

Kirito told me about yesterday.How someone tried to eavesdrop on there conversation.I swear if I was there I would have-

We arrive at floor 47 at Floria.Its a pretty place.Calm.Silica gasps and smiles.

"It's like a dream!"She cheers.

"This floor is known as the flower garden.This entire level is covered in flowers."Kirito tell her and she runs off into the flowers.

"Wow.She really likes flowers."I stated.He nods.

"There nice.Don't you think?"He asks me.What do I say?

"Uh-sure.Yea whatever."I say and he laughs.

"What so funny?"

"You have a soft side."

"No I do NOT!"I yell at him.

"Okay okay.Whatever."He says coping my tone.

"Hey I can copyright that."I smirk at him.

"Sure you can."He smiles."Hey uh Ava?"He asked getting my attention.

"Yea?"

"You uh talk (more like yell) in your sleep."He tells me and my face turns red.My dream.Hiroki...

"I-Is that it?"I asked him.

"You also cry."He says.I go up to his face.

"Not a word."I say firmly.

"Got it."He answers.We both walk to Silica.

"So uh Silica did you hear anything last night?"I ask her.I could see her face turn red and turn to us.

"Nope.Nothing at all.I'm a very very very very very very very very very very heavy sleeper."She tells me.

"That's uh good."I say and we all walk off.It was quiet for a while.

"So um who's Hiroki?"She asked me.

"God damn it!"I yell.But then I see her about to enter the mouth of a plant monster.Then I see something more scary.I cover Kirito eyes.

"KILL IT!KILL IT!"She screamed moving her dagger around.

"I think no you have more pressing matters."I tell her.She screams even more.

"Calm down you have everything you need to beat it."I say.

"The power to believe in myself?"She asked me.

"No a dagger!"I yell at her.

"Right!"I hear and she cuts the vines and stabs head part.I guess....She's finally down when she beats it.

"He didn't look did he?"She asks me.

"Nope.Not a peek."I tell her removing my hand away from Kirito face which was confused.

-----TIME LAPSE-----

After finally saving Silica a few times we arrived to where the flower is.Silica gasp and ran straight towards it.

"Ava!Kirito!It right here!"She cheered as the flower bloomed.

"Take it."Kirito told her.She grabbed it.

"This will bring back Pina right?"She asked us.

"Yes."Kirito answered.She smiled.

"I'm so glad."She said.

"We better go."I said."There are a bunch of strong monsters here and I don't feel like dealing with them."I say.

"Ava is right-"Kirito said but I quickly cut him off.

"What was that?"

"I said you are right."He said rolling his eyes.

"Music to my ears."I smirked at him.Silica laughed.

"Alright."Kirito said."Let's go."

We arrive at the bridge when Kirito stops me and Silica.

"Kirito?"Silica asks.

"Kirito what's wrong-"I quickly stop and know what's wrong.

"Whoever is behind those trees, come out."Kirito says.Rosalia walks out.

"R-Rosalia?"Silica asks in disbelief.

"If you can see through my hiding skills, then your detection skills must be quite high swordman."She smirks.

"Rosalia?Oh my god how are you-yea that's enough of that.Jeez how do you put up that act all day?I can't even do it for 5 seconds."I tell her.

"Your smart aren't you?Seeing right through me?Thats a lot coming from a little girl."She spats at me.God I am so going to kill her.

She looks at Silica."Oh wow you mange to get the flower!Thats great!Now hand it over."She orders us.I start laughing.

"That isn't gonna happen Rosalia.Or should I say leader of the orange guild, Titans hand."Kirito says.

"Seriously?Titans hand?Couldn't think of a better name?"I smirk at her.

"But she's green!"Silica gasps.

"It's a simple trick.Green members find targets, and then lead them to where the orange players are waiting."Kirito tells Silica but doesn't look at her.

"That was one of your friends listening to us last night.Wasn't it?"Kirito asks her.She just smiles.

"You knew all that and you still stuck with her?Are you some idiot?Or did she actually seduce you?"She asked him.

"Nope.Niether."Kirito tells her."We've been looking for you Rosalia."

"What are you talking about?"

"Ten days ago, you attacked a guild called the Silver Flags.Four people, all but the leader died."Kirito obviously mad.

"Oh the ones with no money..."She remembered.

"The leader went from the warp point, to the front lines, from morning in tell night, begging for someone to avenge them."Kirito stopped and I started.

"But sadly he didn't want you killed.He wanted someone to jail you?Can you imagine how he felt?Watching his guild die right in front of him?!"I yell at her.

"Nope.What kind of idiot would take that seriously?Theres no proof that killing someone here means they die in real life."She smirked.Son of a-

"Wanna test that?"I hiss.

"No thanks.I would be focusing on the problem at hand."She said and snapped her fingers.Men started popping out of the trees.

"Kirito!Ava!There too many of them.We should run."Silica says as I smile.

"Aw you think there a threat."I smile.

"It's alright."Kirito tells her."In tell I tell you to run just keep the crystal ready with Ava.Stay put and watch with her."He says.

"Aw wait Kirito!I want to do it too."I wine.

"Ava.Stay put."He tells me.I huff.

"Fine."I mumble.He starts walking to them getting out his sword.

"Kirito!"Silica yells.

"Kirito?"One man asks."Black clothes, a one-handed, no shield style.That can't be the black swordman?"One says.

"That's right bitches.Ever heard of the the name Ava?Or maybe the name 'The Dark Angel'?I smirk at them.They gasp.

"Ava?Kirito?"One says and turns to Rosaila."Rosalia, these are the beaters who solo on the front lines!There from the lead group!"He gasps.

"Please!Like someone from the lead group would be down here.Go get him, and take everything he owns!"She yells and they charge at Kirito.

"Die!"They yell and strike at Kirito.Every single one of them sliced at him.But he just stood there.

"Ava we have to save Kirito!"Silica tells me.Right.She doesn't know.

"Silica look at Heath bar."I say and she does.

"I know it going down that's why-wait what?"She says as soon as she sees it coming right up again after it goes down.She looks at me.

"How?"She asks in disbelief.

"You'll see."I say.They all stop breathing heavily.

"What are you doing?!Kill him!"Rosalia screams at them.

"We tried!We gave him all we got, how is he still standing?!"One of the men yell in frustration.

"About 400 in ten seconds."Kirito says."That's the total damage you seven can do to me.I'm level 78.I have 14,500 HP.My battle healing skills auto-regenerates 600 points every 10 seconds.We can do this all day and you still could never beat me."

"So there's no wondering where your gods are.Cuz there right here, and ones fresh out of mercy."I smirk.

"Is that even possible?"A man asks.

"It is."Kirito answers."High enough numbers can make you invincible.MMO's that use a leveling system are unfair that way."Kirito pulls out a warp crystal."Our client spent his entire fortune to buy this warp crystal.Its sent to take you to the prison."

"You all going there!"I yell.

"I'm green, so if you hurt me, you'll do orange!"She yells.I quickly run to her and put my sword to her neck.Her eyes widen.

"You know I'm getting real tired of your bullshit but just so were clear."I start to say, glaring at her."Me and Kirito are solo players.One or two days of playing while orange means nothing to us."

-----At the hotel-----

"Sorry Silica.We ended using you as bait."Kirito apologized.

"I love how you use the word we."I tell him.He just rolls his eyes.

"Well it's okay.You guys are good people.You did the right thing."She smiled at us but then it disappeared.

"So you guys are leaving?"She asked us.

"Yeah, we've been away from the front lines for five days now, we need to get back."I tell her.

"The leader groups are amazing!I could never be in them even if I tried for years."She sighs.

"Levels are just numbers.In this world strength is just in illusion.There are more important things.Lets meet in the real world.Then we'll be friends just like we are now."Kirito smiled at her.Deep deep deep deep deep down I felt a hint of jealously.No I can't get jealous.

"Right.I'm sure we will!"She smiled.

"So uh aren't we gonna revive your hamster?"I ask.She turns to me.

"Right."She says while getting up going to the table.She took out her flower and Pina's heart.She put a drop of it and then I see a little blue dragon.You know what today wasn't a really bad day.
