No one's POV
Cuurently, everyone is sitting around Kirito and Asuna's house on floor 22 and Klien was telling everyone about the boss.
Klein: Man... That boss move was the same from the one on SAO. Wish I could say I move the same. After all that running around, my whole body is sore.
Agil: Can't believe you guys took it down so quick..
Zora: Well, me, Kirito, Asuna, and Rumia fought it before. Still it wasn't easy. You could tell that the other player wasn't used to playing as a team.
Asuna: But at the end of it, Kirito was exhausted.
Philia: Kirito fell flat on his ass, but the rest of us still managed.
Kirito: That's only because I'm not used to fighting in AR.
Yuuki: Aww... No fair Big Bro, Big Sis! I want to play with the both of you too!
Zora and Asuna then smile at her.
Zora: Well after you finish your treatment... I heard that the operation is a success.
Yuuki: Yes. I should be allowed visitors in a couple more weeks.
Asuna: Can't wait for it.
Zora: Oh, and Yuna came to cheer us on. And her final gift was...
Suddenly, Leafa and Silica stood up and looked at Zora completely shocked and the two of them walked over to him.
Leafa: Yuna was at the boss fight?!
Silica: For real?!
Leafa and Silica then started to shook Zora's body demanding to tell them.
Leafa and Silica: ZORA!!
Zora: Ahaha...
Klien: That was pretty cool seeing her live. But like a dumbass, I forgot to put my name down for one of those tickets.
Agil: To bad you missed out man. When they were doing those Ordinal Scale sign up, I scored myself a pair.
Sinon: Yeah, I got a pair too...
There was a brief moment before Klien and Leafa looked at them shocked.
Leafa and Klien: You got two?!
Klien started to beg Agil to give him one of his pair.
Agil: Alright, Alright! Get off! Stop begging I'll let you have one!
Leafa then started to stare at Sinon.
Sinon: Yes Leafa, I'll give you a ticket
Leafa eyes started shining brightly and hugged Sinon tightly.
Leafa: Yay! Oo... I just remember I have kendo boot camp next week.
Leafa was down in depressed and Zora who was between Sinon and Philia just smile at her and patted her head comforting her and she started crying on his chest.
Silica: Is anyone else is as weirded out as I am? I mean, what's up with an old SAO boss showing up at an Ordinal Scale battle?
Liz: If it were a tie between game, wouldn't we have heard?
Zora: I guess, but I don't think that was what's going on. Argus, was the company that run SAO was shut down awhile ago.
Leafa: But what about the other players that come to the event? Did they know that the boss were from SAO too?
Philia: No, I'm pretty sure that most of them didn't. No one knew its attack pattern, accept us or maybe one or two others...
Zora then started remembering about the 2nd rank player who he recognized.
(Flashback)
???: You traitor...
(Present)
Zora(mind): Is he blaming me for what happen that day...? I tried to get there as fast as I could...
Zora then had a saddened looked at Philia noticed it.
Kirito: Think is, if old bosses from SAO keep showing up, its only a matter of time before folks are catching on. And those battle events where the points are add.
Agil: Sound like someone is trying to bring old Aincrad to the real world.
Sinon: So what? The Augma is nothing like the NerveGear. So no one is gonna die. It's safe.
Zora: Anyway, Rio, Yui. See if there is anything fishy.
Rio and Yui: You got it, Papa/Uncle.
Silica: Heck if I can hang out with Yuna, I'll totally go to a battle.
Leafa: Me too!
Silica: And next time he'll give me a ride on his bike.
Silica muttered then under her breath as she was talking about Zora.
Liz: I wish this event was happening at better time. And at places that are easier to get too.
Klien: That's was the guys in Furrinkazan Guild are for. If there's any lady who wanted a ride, just pick up a phone and will pick you up.
Liz: Yeah, that's what worries us Klien.
Klien just hang his head down and everyone started to laugh.
(Elsewhere)
Yuna is sitting on rail looking at a golden orb and with her was the second rank player.
Second rank: What's wrong, Yuna?
Yuna: What is this thing?
Second Rank: Proof that everyone love your singing.
Yuna: Really? This little orb?
Second rank: There'll be plenty more where that came from.
The second rank then opened up a book and it was the record of SAO history and he started looking at all of the name who fought on the frontlines.
Second rank: After I get my revenge on them. The Black Swordsman. The Lightning Flash. The Treasure Hunter.
He then read down and stopped at a certain name as he looked over at his pocket and pull out a picture.
Second rank: And that traitor swordsman.
(Timeskip)
It was morning and both Sora and Kazuto were currently standing behind Suguha as she was preparing her club trip.
Suguha: I'm heading out now, Big Bros...
Kazuto: Okay... Have fun at bootcamp.
Sora: Be sure to bring lots of souvenirs. And stay safe...
Suguha then gave Kazuto a hug and she also gave hug towards Sora and a kiss on his cheeks.
Suguha: Well, see ya...
Suguha then left both Sora and Kazuto behind and Sora made his way inside his room and started searching for what institute college or university that he wants to attend and he was browsing at the producer of Augma.
Sora(mind): Tetsuhiro Shigemura....
Sora then started to think about Yuna once again as he went inside his drawer and pull out a piece of paper. In that paper was actually a photo of him along with a girl who had rather short hair, which she had dyed milk-tea-brown using a rare dye.
Sora: Yuuna Shigemura, huh...
Sora then started to have tears on his eyes as he recalled that fateful day.
(Flashback)
Yuna: Ei-kun! Zo-kun!
Zora: YUNA!!
(Present)
Sora(mind): Big Sis... What should I do? First I lost you and her as well...
Sora then decided to go for a walk in town, he ask Kazuto if he wanted to join him, but Kazuto refused saying that he'll be logging into ALO for the day and Sora decided to go on his own minding his own business, until he arrived at a cemetery as he looked over at Rumia's grave.
Sora: Big Sis... I wish you were here. Knowing you, you'll probably be here to cheer me up again if I'm looking down.
Rumia's grave:...
Sora then got a message from Klien that there will be a boss fight at the Tokyo Metropolis, Shibuya Ward, Yoyogi park, and Sora stare at the message before saying that he'll be there. The reason is because that he was hoping he could see the second rank player one more time. And minutes later, he had arrived the venue and saw Ryutaro along with his member.
Ryutaro: Hey, Sora! Right on time... And you as well, Asuna.
Sora then looked back and saw that it was Asuna as she was also on her way towards the boss event and he looked at her surprise.
Sora: Asuna? So he invited you too, huh?
Asuna: Yeah. I was taking a bath when Klien suddenly texted me. So I decided to come too.
When Asuna said that she was taking a bath, Ryutaro and his guild started to blush and Asuna looked at them with discomfort before they all heard the sound of a knuckle cracking as they all saw Sora glaring at them and Ryutaro and his guild flinch.
Sora: You better not be fantasizing about my Big Sis naked body...
They all quickly nodded their head and Asuna just laughed awkwardly and noticed that some of them are not here.
Asuna: You're missing one of your friends...?
Ryutaro: Oh, yeah, I sent him a message but he hasn't call back yet. The two of you could just go on ahead and we'll jump the moment he gets here.
Asuna: Okay, but you better hurry, or me and my lil bro here we'll scoop up the points from you.
Asuna said while tugging onto Sora's right hand and Sora just sighed.
Ryutaro: Hey. Let's not be greedy...
The rest of them just laughed and both Asuna and Sora started to make their way towards the location where the event we'll be held and the two of them got into their Ordinal Scale outfits.
Asuna: I'm surprise to see you here, Zora. I thought that you'll be just like Kirito, who wouldn't like AR games...
Zora: Well, it was a nice change of pace. Since that idiot brother of mine just keep sulking all around the house without anything to do, I figure that I'll at least get some fun while I'm at it.
Asuna: Eh.... Is that so?
Zora didn't tell the real reason why he came. He doesn't want the rest to get involve in his problem with the second rank player. After the clock reaches 21:00, the scenery started to change and an OS boss appeared and both Asuna and Zora realized it.
Asuna: That's...
Zora: The Aincrad 11th floor boss. Storm Griffin.
A white drone flew above everyone, and a ray of pink colored light releases from underneath it and Yuna appeared.
Yuna: Is everyone ready? It's time to battle! Music, start!
Both Zora and Asuna prepare themselves to fight and the Griffin rushed towards them and both Zora and Asuna jumped out of the way. And multiple people were shooting bullets over to them and the Griffin began charging up electricity.
Asuna: It's lighting up.
Zora: Everyone, it's preparing for it's big attack, tanks draw its Agro. And for the rest, it will use it's killer move, when you see it hover aim for the wings!
Zora said to some tank players and some shooter players and they all started going.
Asuna: Everyone moves in when it's hit the ground!
Everyone started following Zora and Asuna's plan together and tanks immediately get in line formation and began to draw the Griffin's attention by hitting their shield with their weapons and as planned, the Griffin send a bolt of lightning at the Tanks as they defend against it.
Zora: Fire!
Long range players began shooting at the Griffin with their guns and due to the after effects of the skill that the Griffin just used, it couldn't dodge the oncoming bullet causing it to fall.
Asuna: Go!
Everyone started hitting at the Griffin with all they've got, but the Griffin started rushing and hitting multiple players and Zora rushes in and slashed on of its arms
and Zora started to imitate the Sword Skill "Horizontal Square" hitting both wings and killing it. And everyone started cheering and Asuna came to his side.
Asuna: Nice work, Zora. Our teamwork are still good.
Zora: Well, not as good when you coordinate with Kirito that is. But, it was a nice play...
Everyone started coming towards Sora and Asuna's side congratulating them and started asking if they were once apart of the same guild or something until they heard Yuna calling for them.
Sora(mind): In the end, he didn't show up...
Yuna: Hello again. Congratulations!
Sora then stare at Yuna and he wish that he could talk to her alone, but he couldn't since Asuna is with him right now and Yuna suddenly leaned in and she once again kiss him on the cheeks completely shocking the rest.
Asuna: You really do like to cheat on Philia?!
Sora: Don't misunderstood her!
Sora then received 10.000 points and his rank started increasing to rank 70 and Yuna once again leaned in onto Zora's face as both of their face were inches away from each other.
Sora: Yu-
Yuna: See you later, Zo-kun...
Sora's eyes widened completely shocked while Asuna looked confused and Yuna disappeared right away.
Asuna: Zo-kun?
Sora:...
Both Sora and Asuna started making their ways back and saw that Ryutaro and his guild were no longer there and they both looked confused.
Sora: Where is Klien and the rest?
Asuna: Did they went home?
Sora: Maybe. Come on. I'll give you a ride home...
Asuna smile at him and the two of them got into Sora's motorcycle and Sora started driving towards Asuna's home. Little did they know, the second rank player and Yuna were watching Sora and Asuna as the second rank player had a smirk on his face.
Second rank: Night Sky Swordsman, Zora... Death isn't permanent in Ordinal Scale. And without the fear of death, a players potential is unlimited. Next time we meet in game, I'll show you my potential. You who is a traitor who couldn't be there when it counts.
