In the realm of virtual reality. Pain, and emotions are labeled as P.A.I.N, or "Personal, Antic, Identification, Notation". These "PAIN's" function by splitting , or dilating one's PAINs while sending them through a program for distribution through...
Me: Y-Y/N...what did you mean "your friend, Deathgun"?...
Y/N looked at me with a confused expression before speaking.
Y/N: like, he's my friend!- he helped me out when someone was hurting me-
Bazalt: who the hell was hurting you!?-ack!
I darted my eyes to see Kureha smacking the back of Bazalt's head before looking back at Y/N.
But Kirito looked as if he had just seen a ghost... he did his best to keep his composure.
I watched as Kirito quietly kneeled in front of Y/N. He gently placed his hands on his shoulder before speaking directly towards him.
Kirito: Y/N...I need you to tell me the truth-

Y/N: d-did...did I say something wrong?
Kirito: no...but that will depend on what you tell me next...
I could see Y/N get visibly nervous. Despite him always being this way...I could tell that he was more fearful than shy right now, as I could see him tremble a bit
Kirito: who is death gun to you?...and when, and where did you see him last?...
Y/N tried his best to respond accordingly, but under the pressure of the room...I don't think even I could let anything more than a small sentence out...
Y/N: he-...he helped...he helped me when you guys-...when I-
Kirito shook him up a bit to get him back to his senses.
Kirito: Y/N!...focus...I'm not mad...I'm just trying to protect you...
I came up behind Y/N before placing a hand on his shoulder. I only felt a small jolt of shock before hearing him respond a few seconds later.
Y/N: Death-gun...when I last saw him...he said "one day, your little gift will become a curse...and I will be there when it happens"...and and after that I haven't seen him since...but he gave me a those...
Y/N pointed to the goggles Zeliska had picked up when the guys had crashed the jeep.
Kirito let out a loud sigh as he hung his head low.
Kirito: then that means your either marked, or that he is targeting you...
Y/N gave a look of horror...I think he was begining to feel the same fear that he probably felt when...his "accident" happened...
I felt someone come to my side before seeing Zeliska standing next to me with the pair of goggles in hand...
Zeliska: Sinon...you need to look at this...these are status reading goggles...a rare item that ranks at F tier due to low bonus stats...but
I could see a random tear from her eyes as she placed the goggles in my free hand.
In confusion...I equiped them before looking at Y/N...
