The Maverick(Sword Art Online X Male Reader)

Ch.36 Showtime

I stepped out of the cave and pulled out my map.

Kirito:What's the situation?

Maverick:There's no one near us thankfully.Death Gun and Sinon aren't on the map so that leaves eight of us.

Just as I said that two icons disappeared.

Maverick:Make that six.

Kirito:Maverick,there's something that's been on my mind.

Maverick:Lay it on me.

Kirito:It's that we can't find a player if we're counting you and me along with Sinon and Death Gun there's one person missing because we can see Yamikaze but there's still one missing.Maybe Death Gun killed someone else?Actually no,his partner's been waiting to kill Sinon I don't know maybe i'm overthinking this.I just feel like we're still missing something.

Maverick:Hold that thought.It might be helpful because I can't shake the feeling that we're missing something too.Of course,we could just be overthinking things.

We both stood there in silence.

Maverick:Well were not gonna figure out anything just standing so let's just head back.

Kirito:Ok.

We headed back into the cave to meet up with Sinon.

Sinon:Well,what did you find?

Maverick:There's six of us left.You,me,Kirito,Yamikaze, I'm pretty sure Death Gun,and some other player out there somewhere but he probably is chilling in a cave like us.Let me say that if he wins,then this'll kill the argument that BRs are competitive which they're not.

Sinon:That's it?Just us six?Well,it has been an hour and forty-five minutes already.Seeing that how the last BoB ended in about two hours,this ones right on schedule.Heh,i'm surprised no ones checked and naded here yet.

Kirito:Yeah,maybe we've got Death Gun to thank for that.He swept the competition with that rifle of his.

Sinon:If you're right,then he's for sure going for the max kills award.Whatever,we should worry about Yamikaze.You two were probably the only one to show up on his terminal,so we better get ready,because he'll be coming for ya.

Kirito:He any good?

Sinon:He was the runner up for  the last BoB.He's a typical forlorn AGI type.They call him"The Run-n-Gun Daemon" or something.

Kirito:Uh run-what?

Maverick:Run-n-gun,it's a type of combat style where players will run and shoot simultaneously.

Sinon:Right.His main weapon is the HMG Helical.An ultra-light submachine gun.Yamikaze couldn't compete with XeXeed's rare gun and armor in the last tourney.But even though he didn't win,some people say he's a better player.

Kirito:Wow...he's really that good?Like the best player on Japan's server good?

Maverick:I think that's me.

Kirito:I don't think so.

Maverick:Bet.

Sinon:He might be an ace in a hole too.If you're right about Death Gun,and i'm the only one he's ready to kill,you know,because his partner is waiting back at my apartment right now.See,I figure if that's the case,Yamikaze isn't in danger of getting killed,this is gonna sound cold,but I think he would make a great decoy for us.When Death Gun shoots Yamikaze,we'll know where he is.

Kirito:You're pretty brave Sinon.

Sinon:Not even,i'm not trying to think about it.Trying to avoid it scares me,like I always do.
