" That I can't remember. "Janet said sadly." I've lost some of my earlier memories and wonder if I'll ever get them back." She added.

"Oh...I'm sorry for asking then," Rikku said looking down.

" It's alright Rikku."Janet said and was happy that someone had asked. " Are we ready to train this afternoon or do you all have other plans. " She asked.

"That was the plan for today, at least for me and Rikku here," Alex replied. He had planned on training with the blonde Al-bhed today.

" I would like to train with Artie if she agrees. " Kirito asked hoping she would since he wanted to see how she fought.

"Carly?" Artie asked, wanting to make sure it was okay with her trainer.

" It's fine with me. Just be carful. " Carly said with a smile.

Artunia turned somber at that before nodding. She didn't want to say that she was always careful since that was the response she gave to Shirou when he was alive...and before they were changed.

" You okay?" Carly asked having a feeling something was wrong.

Artie shook her head lightly. "I'll tell you later, okay?" she asked.

" Okay." Carly said and hoped that Artie was alright.

"I will be, promise. Kirito...right? You still want that spar?" she asked with a light smirk.

" Still want it. " Kirito said with a grin. " I promise Eve I will be careful. " He said to his trainer.

"I hope so. I'm sure Sakura wouldn't like to see you all banged up," she said with a teasing smile.

Kirito blushed and nodded. " No she wouldn't. " He said.

Artunia giggled lightly at the turn of events and was curious as to who this "Sakura" was. She assumed that she was a bishie, but assumed that she wasn't currently in the room. "So...where should we fight Kirito-san?" she asked.

" There is a free training area just down the hall. " Janet said hoping to help.

"Thank you Janet-san," Artunia said before bowing lightly. "Kirito-san...could you please lead the way?" she asked.

(*snickers* Sakura getting jealous of Artie-chan)

( that would be funny. )

Kirito led the way for Artie and waved at Sakura who was outside one of the other training areas. He hoped she didn't take this the wrong way.

(It would.)

"Who was that?" Artunia asked, curious.

" That's Sakura. She's sort of my girlfriend I guess but I'm not really sure. " Kirito said since they really hadn't talked about that.

"So that's the person that Carly was teasing you with?" she asked as a small grin made its way to her face. "And why do you say sort of girlfriend?"

" I'll explain later." Kirito said since he did have a crush on Sakura-chan but wasn't really sure how Sakura felt.

Artunia nodded as they finally arrived at the dojo, a soft sigh escaping as it looked a lot like Shirou's area where they trained, when she was his Servant, and not that Archer. Shaking her head lightly, she saw Kirito looking at her with concern. "Sorry...it's just that this place reminds me of where I helped Shirou-kun train," she admitted. "I was hoping that with time these...episodes would fade..." she muttered.

" I know how you feel. I miss my Asuna-chan too. " Kirito said and tried not to look sad.
