Chapter 12: (Y/N)'s Best Friend
-Evening-
Megumin was playing chess with Darkness, Kazuma was lying on the couch and you were humming to a music coming from your head.
Megumin: Darkness! That's not fair! All right, then...Very well, very well. Go ahead and do as you please.
Aqua walked to Kazuma.
Aqua: Hey, Kazuma. Relinquish that spot to me, the exalted Aqua-sama.
Kazuma: Huh?
Aqua: I'm Level 21, the highest level in the party-
(Y/N): Oh? Let me see.
Aqua: Here.
She hands you the card and you looked at it and smiled.
(Y/N): Huh, it's not bad.
Aqua: Hehehe! Thank you (Y/N)!
Aqua says with a happy grin on her face, and her face reminded of you someone you knew very well.
(Y/N): Hey, Check out mine.
You said as you handed your card to Aqua and she looks at her, her eyes had widened.
Aqua: WHAT?! You're level 30?!
You showed a smug look on your face.
(Y/N): Yep. Did a lot of farming to get a lot of experience points.
Aqua pouts as she handed you the card back. You smiled as you left the living room and went to your room.
You sat down on your bed and looked at your guitar and began to speak to yourself.
(Y/N): It's been a while since I've been into this world. I really miss my own world...my family, friends, games, and a lot of things. Including my own best friend, I missed her.
You said sadly as you started to play the guitar and singing at the same time.

What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind?
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
How many times do I have to tell you?
Even when you're crying, you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
Give me all of you, oh
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
After that, you deeply sighed and decided that you should get some sleep by tomorrow.
-The Next Day-
You woke up the next day, took a shower, wear your clothes and eat some breakfast. Kazuma went somewhere at the town, The others were minding their own business, while you were in the Guild looking for some good quests.
Just then, you something caught your interest and picked one quest.
(Y/N): "Defeat the Ancient Dragon at the The Fifth Path"
You then looked down at the reward and your eyes widened.
(Y/N): Whoa, 600,000 Eris! Wow! That seems a total worth quest.
You said and you decided to accept that quest and went outside of town. Just then, you hear a familiar voice behind you.
???: (Y/N)?
You slowly turn around and to see a girl with red eyes and a long, purplish-black hair, and red eyes. She wore obsidian chest armor, a bluebottle violet tunic and a windswept skirt of the same color beneath the armor. A thin, black sheath hung on her waist.
That's when it you. You knew who this person is.
(Y/N): Y...Yuuki? Is that you?
That's when your friend 'Yuuki' had a shocked looked on her eyes as she covered her mouth using her hands and her tears began to build up from her eyes.
She then ran up to you and hugged you, this caught you off surprised at this.
Yuuki: I...I can't believe it...it's you...it's really you!
She says while crying on your chest. You hesitated for a moment as you smiled and hugged her back.
This goes on for a few seconds before breaking the hug. Yuuki wipes her tears and looks up at you with a smile.
(A/N: What a cute smile she has though.)
(Y/N): Heh, There's that smile I knew for a while now.
Yuuki: Oh you.
You both chuckled at each other.
(Y/N): Say, why don't you and I spend some time together? Just for me and you?
You offered with a smile and Yuuki smiled back as well.
Yuuki: Sure! Do you have quest?
(Y/N): Yeah, we should go defeat an ancient dragon.
Yuuki: Awesome! Let's go!
She says as you shook your head with a smile and walked together. While walking, you spoke to her.
(Y/N): Hey, how long have you been here?
Yuuki began to think for a moment.
Yuuki: Hmm...I'd say a month ago. How about you?
(Y/N): Well three months.
Yuuki: Three months?! Wow! I can't believe you actually managed to live this long.
(Y/N): What level are you now, Yuuki?
Yuuki: I'm level 40.
You looked at her with surprised eyes.
(Y/N): 40?! You level up to 40 for a month?
She nervously laughed and scratched her head on her right with her index finger.
Yuuki: Yeah, I did. Did a lot of farming and got a lot of money. What level are you now?
(Y/N): I'm level 30.
Yuuki: Seriously?
(Y/N): Yep. Hey, what is your calling?
Yuuki: Well, A Swordsman, that is. You?
(Y/N): A Bard.
Yuuki: A Bard? Can you try to fight an Ancient Dragon as a Bard?
You chuckled at her.
(Y/N): You see...
You said as you pulled out your weapon.
(Y/N): This is my weapon named 'Deadman's Guitar' I can be able to switch into Weapon mode and Gun mode.
Yuuki rose her eyebrow in an interest way.
Yuuki: Really? Show me.
You smirked as you pressed the second button which is the weapon mode. Both skulls opened their mouths and revealing the Scythe's blades.
Yuuki: Whoa...what about the gun mode?
You nodded as you pressed the third button, as the Scythe blades retreated back inside the Skull's mouth back to the guitar, as the lower part revealing the handle.
(Y/N): The gun barrel is at the top of the head of the guitar.
You fired the gun on the air. Just then, the bullets hits the bird in the air and it falls down next to you.
(Y/N): Oops.
Yuuki: Heh, like every cartoons of all.
You and Yuuki both laughed together before you spoke up.
(Y/N): What's your sword?
Yuuki: Oh right?
She then pulls out her own sword.
Yuuki: This is my sword! I called it 'The Obsidian Sword'!
She introduces her sword with a smile.
(A/N: I've looked everywhere on google on what her sword name was. But let's just go with 'Obsidian Sword')
(Y/N): Huh, it's a pretty cool name.
Yuuki: Hehe! Thanks!
She says before putting her sword away and you spoke up.
(Y/N): Hey...by the way...
Yuuki turns to you with confusion on her eyes.
Yuuki: What is it?
(Y/N): How...
You paused for a moment.
(Y/N): How did you die?
Yuuki was surprised at your quest as he looked down for a moment before looking at you.
Yuuki: I...I had...illness.
You looked at her in shock.
(Y/N): What? What kind of illness?
She hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
Yuuki: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, meaning AIDS.
Your eyes were widened in shock.
Yuuki: Yeah...I've had them with me. I didn't tell you about it after you were dying with Tuberculosis...I'm really sorry (Y/N)...
You decided to hug her, which surprised her.
(Y/N): I'm sorry too. But it's all in the past now. We can't change what's in the past, we gotta move on.
Yuuki nods before the two of you went to the quest location.
-Time Skip-
You and Yuuki finally arrived at the location.
Yuuki: You sure this is the place?
(Y/N): I think so. Let's go in.
You said as you grabbed the torch nearby.
(Y/N): Stay close to me.
Yuuki: *Nods* Yeah.
After walking deep through the caverns and right now, we're in a big location inside the cave. And then you see the Ancient Dragon sleeping.
(Y/N): There it is.
Yuuki: I see it. Let's go and kill it.
You said as you pulled out your weapons and walked towards the Ancient Dragon. The Ancient Dragon noticed you and Yuuki's presence and it woke up and the Dragon looks at you down.
-Battle Start-
https://youtu.be/-TmB7SYXNho
The Ancient Dragon reeled his neck back and let's out a Fire Breath.
Yuuki: Watch out!
She says as we separated from each other by jumping away from the Fire Breath. The Fire Breath was following me.
(Y/N): Yuuki! Attack it!
Yuuki: Okay!
She says as she jumps in the air and starts slashing at the Dragon's arm a few times before it roars in pain to force itself to stop using Fire Breath. The Ancient Dragon tries to scratch her with its claw. She did a back flip to dodge it and gained some distance.
Yuuki: (Y/N), your turn!
(Y/N): I got this. HUOOAAHHH!!!
You yelled out your battle cry as you charged towards the Ancient Dragon. The Dragon noticed that you are charging towards him. It used its claw to scratch you, but you dodged it out of the way before jumping high in the air and started shooting him with your shotgun. Your fired the Ancient Dragon about 6 six times before quickly changing it to Scythe mode and quickly slashed at the Dragon about 5 hits and it roars in pain.
You and Yuuki ran up to each other and she spoke to you first.
(Y/N): I think we did a bit of damage to it.
Yuuki: Yeah! I think we did!
Just then, the two of you hear the Ancient Dragon roared again. It charges at you and Dragon was prepared to bite you.
(Y/N): Hold on!
You said as you carried Yuuki on your arms and used Super Speed to avoid the attack.
Yuuki: Whoa! What was that?!
You set her down before speaking to her.
(Y/N): Super Speed!
The two of you turned to the Dragon and it stares at you with an angry face and steam comes out from its mouth.
Yuuki: Get ready. He's about to use Fire Breath again.
(Y/N): I know.
The Ancient Dragon lets out Fire Breath once again. This time, it goes after Yuuki, not you.
Yuuki: I need a little help here!
(Y/N): Hold on!
You then switch back into Shotgun mode and fired at the Dragon's face like 3 times to try to get it to your attention.
(Y/N): Hey Dragon! I'm over here!
You taunted as the Dragon roars at you before charging at you quickly. You prepared to dodge it, but the Dragon used it's tail to whack you away and hitting you against the wall.
Yuuki: (Y/N)!!
Yuuki cried out to you as you try to spoke up.
(Y/N): I'm...I'm fine...!
You said as you tried to get out of the wall, but you successfully managed to get out of there and face planted on the ground. You tried to get up, but the Dragon prepares a fire breath at you.
Yuuki: Hey ugly! Don't forget about me!
Yuuki taunted as the Dragon turns to her and roared. Yuuki runs away and she thought to herself.
Yuuki: (I guess I have no choice, but to use my ultimate skill.) (Y/N)! I'll end the Dragon on my own!
(Y/N): Grgh...Y-yeah...! Go for it!
You said gritting your teeth. Yuuki held a serious face as her sword starts to glow in purple as Yuuki charged at the Dragon. The Dragon roared and charged at her. The Ancient Dragon used the Tail Whip to whack Yuuki away, but she jumped in the air unleashing her 11-hit skill.
Yuuki: Mother's Rosario!!
She says and began to hit the Ancient Dragon with five consecutive stabs in a straight line from the top right to the bottom left.
Yuuki: You'll pay for hurting my best friend!
The word 'Best Friend' caught you off surprised.
Yuuki then draws their sword back and performs another five consecutive stabs in a straight line from the top left to the bottom right, perpendicular to the prior five. The two lines together form an X shape with their third hit overlapping.
Yuuki: This is the end!!
Finally, Yuuki tilts the Dragon's body and uses her entire strength to perform a last stab directly at the intersection of the cross-shape created by the former ten strikes before unleashing an explosion and a gust of wind, making you to cover your eyes.
-Battle End-
After Yuuki used her 11 hit skill, as the Dragon roared faintly before it falls down to the ground, making it dead as Yuuki panted for breath before speaking up.
Yuuki: I did it...I did it! Woo!!
She says happily and proudly. You smiled as you struggled to get up using your weapon.
Yuuki: (Y/N)! I did it!
(Y/N): No. We did it. I mean, I did let you get the kill. We could at least share.
Yuuki smiled before patting you in the head.
Yuuki: All right then, what's the Reward?
(Y/N): 600,000 Eris.
Quest Completed! Defeat the Ancient Dragon!
-Time Skip-
It was now afternoon and the sun was getting down. You and Yuuki went to the Guild and take the reward.
Luna: All right, here's the reward, (Y/N). 600,00 Eris.
Luna says as she handed you a sack of money. You smiled before taking it.
(Y/N): Thanks, Yuuki. Without you, I wouldn't be able to defeat that thing on my own.
Yuuki smiled and pats your back.
Yuuki: You're welcome, (Y/N)!
(Y/N): Hey, back at the cave. I said that we could at least share the money. Do you want some 300,000 Eris?
Yuuki thinks for a moment before speaking up.
Yuuki: Nah, you keep the money.
(Y/N): Huh? Are you sure?
Yuuki: Yeah! I have plenty of money!
She smiled as you smiled back as well.
Yuuki: Say, I have a place to stay. Why don't you come over to my Inn?
You looked down in pity for a moment before looking back at her.
(Y/N): Sorry, but my party and I were in a debt.
She looks at you confused.
Yuuki: What? What do you mean you and your party are in debt?
(Y/N): It's a long story. Want to meet my party? We live in a mansion and It's not far from here.
Yuuki: Alright then, let's go visit your party!
Yuuki says with a happy grin and raised her fist in the air.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(A/N: Alright! Chapter done! Surprised to see Yuuki as your best friend? Yeah, I know that SAO fans were sad and their hearts broke to see Yuuki dying from AIDS. Poor her and her family though.)
