Sword art online: Kirito x Silica

Chapter 1

After Kirito and Silica managed to ressurrect Pina, Kirito was about ready to tell her that she should stay down in the lower levels. "I don't want her to get hurt leveling up. I better tell her to-"

But then, out of the blue, she yells. "Kirito, I want to come with you!"

Kirito is shocked! "What?! But it's dangerous!"

"I don't care! You saved me! And plus, I can be much help to you." She replied with a hint of hesitation in her voice.

"Look...Silica. I'm happy you want to travel with me. But, you don't have a high enough level to survive on the higher floors." Kirito said as he tried to reason with her.

"Then train me. Help me level up. I want to get stronger so I can help the others escape." She begged.

Kirito scratched the back of his neck and tried to figure out a way out of this, but she looked at him with cute pleading eyes. "Please! Please let me help!"

Al...right... I'll train you. But you need to reach a skill level of sixty in one month or I can't help you." He said sternly.

She cheered and immediately began getting ready, looking through her inventory. Kirito looked at her and said. "Wait! Now?!"

She looked at him. "Of course. No time like the present."

Kirito smiled and said. "You're off to a great start then."

************************************

And so Kirito decided to train her. He helped her level up by attacking the enemy and alloeing her to take the final strike. But over time, Kirito noticed that she wasn't going to do very well with a dagger. So he took her to his favorite shop. Agil was in his shop, cleaning swords when Kirito and Silica walked in.

Agil smiled and said. "Kirito my best customer. What brings you in for today?"

Kirito pointed at silica and said. We need to find a weapon for her that's stronger than a dagger."

Agil looked at her. "Well I don't know. She seems to be an animal tamer and small weapons are their specialty."

Kirito then said. "A simple short sword will be fine. She just needs a weapon strong enough to kill monsters without snapping in half after the first attack."

Agil looked at them ant went to the back room. "Alright, I'll go see what I have."

Kirito and Silica smiled at each other as they waited for him to return.

Pina on the other hand, started exploring around the shop and accidentally knocked over a sword rack. They all fell to the floor a and disappeared, costing thousands of col!Kirito and Silica panicked! "I thought you were watching her!" Kirito silently sreplied

"I didn't expect this!" Silica replied back.

Silica grabbed Pina and they ran out of the shop. Agil returned. "So I found-were they go?"

He looked over and saw his sword rack knocked over.

"KIRITO!!!" Could be heard coming from the shop.

************************************

Later, Kirito told her that she only needed two more level ups. So she went to her normal hunting grounds and found a huge bear-like monster.

It snarled at her and attacked her with all its might. She remained on the defensive, slowly draining its life.

It spun its tail at her but she slid under it. She used her dagger and sliced open its stomach. It blew up into a bunch of pixels and Silica jumped excitedly. "Yay! I did it!"

Kirito walked up to her with an approving look. He held her hand up in front of her and said. "You're level sixty now. But you'll still be below those in higher floors. Are you ready?"

She looked at him with a huge amount of confidence on her face. "Yes I am!"

He grinned and stabbed her in the hand with his sword! She jumped back. "Kirito what was that for?! My hand is ruined!"

He got in an offensive stance. "You're going to have to defend your self, even when your injured."

She wanted to panick and run, but she needed to prove herself. Kirito charged her and sliced away at her body, but made sure that he wasn't doing any critical damage. Silica Saw her health bar go down slowly and opened her arms from blocking his attacks.

As Kirito was about to beat her and knock her into the red he jumped back to merely take out her leg, but silica charged her dagger and stabbed him right in the chest. His heath bar lowered into the red.  He jumped back to create distance and said while he panted. "N-now you are ready ofor the top floors."

Her face lit up with exitement and Kirito healed both of the to full health. Now came the next part. Trying to survive the upper floors.

I want to give a huge thank you to @nintaix for allowing me to continue writing this story.
