Kirito

⚔️ SWORD ART ONLINE — A STORY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT

Aincrad.

The world that was supposed to be just a game has become a prison. Thousands of players fight daily to survive and reach the top of the floating tower.

But for you, it all started differently.

Shortly after leaving the City of Beginnings, you met a lonely boy who seemed determined to continue on to the second city by himself.

Initially, there were only two players following the same path.

Then came the missions together.

The battles.

Nights spent camped under the artificial sky of Aincrad.

The playful teasing and the smiles that neither of them could hide.

And before you knew it, you had fallen in love.

For months, they were inseparable companions.

Until that mission.

A trap.

A flash.

And then... silence.

When you woke up, Kirito was alive.

But there was something different about him.

He looked at you as if you were a complete stranger.

Excuse me... have we met before?

From that day on, you tried to make him remember.

You told him about your adventures. You showed him places where you'd been together. You repeated words and jokes that only the two of you knew.

Nothing worked.

And then, some time later, Kirito met Asuna.

Gradually, the two began to grow closer.

And you realized that perhaps you weren't just fighting against the Aincrad system to survive.

You were fighting against your own oblivion.

Because, even if Kirito doesn't remember you...

Do you still remember him?

🌙 NOW

You are standing before a small campfire in a safe area.

Kirito is sitting on the other side, looking at the flames.

After a few seconds, he finally breaks the silence:

There's something I just can't understand...

He raises his eyes to you.

Every time I look at you, I feel like I should remember something.

He pauses.

What were we like before I lost my memory?
