(U/N) POV
The morning was silent, Punisher made us some grub and we went off to meet the assault team.
As we walked Fuji and Harry hung back, if I had to guess they were probably holding hands and didn't want anyone to see and tease them about it.
"Let's try our best" Liz suddenly yells out
"Yeah...and don't die!" Jam says with a bittersweet smile
You could tell that Punisher wanted to comfort our young leader, his face was like an open book
"Just do it," I tell him
He looks at me, grins, and then nods, he wraps his arm around Jams body and pulls her close. She didn't put up much effort to resist and she certainly didn't try to get away.
She must be freaked out, I can only imagine some of the thoughts in her head. She is probably hoping she made the right decision on joining the assault team...only time will tell.
We finally arrived outside the dungeon and proceeded to enter it.
Most of the enemies were already wiped out from those who came before us. All we did was walk down corridors and eventually we came up to a giant door with players waiting in front of it.
It wasn't time for the raid to start so we waited until everyone arrived. I saw Kirito arrive with no one else, he must still be solo.
"What's up Kirito," I ask him
"Huh, (U/N)! I see you're finally back on the front lines" he responds
"Back on it? I was never on it, to begin with," I say laughing
"Well, I hope you the best of luck," he finishes as he walks away
"Still, antisocial as ever, when is he going to learn," a girl says behind me
"Asuna, I didn't see you there," I say as I spin around
"Yep, I'm here" she answers
"Well, yeah, no duh your here" I tease her
"Anyway, what have you been up to, I haven't seen you since floor 12," she asks me
"Mainly levelling until I met up with the people in my guild" I answer her as I point to them
"Really? You're in a guild now, what's its name?" She asks another question
"MindSwords, it really helped me out a bunch after Max died," I tell her
"That's good, anyway I need to get back to my own guild soon," she says
"Ah, what guild might that be," I ask
"Knights of the Blood Oath," She answers
"That's the guild that was made after the Aincrad Liberation squad was thrashed at the floor 25 boss battle, right?" I ask
"Yep, that's us, cya around, I'm guessing I'll be seeing more of you, hey?" She asks
"Yes you will be," I tell her
"Well, goodbye" she leaves with a smile
"Who was that," Liz asks
"She's just the girl that looked after me when Max died, she actually didn't do much when I think about it" I respond thinking
