3 Months after SAO was cleared

Caleb has recovered by using his sword skills he had asked God for. He had a collection of long swords, katanas, scimitars and other swords. He understood that he needed to get into ALO and luckily, he was one of the few people to be allowed to keep a Nervegear, thus he didn't need to waste money on an Amusphere.

He woke up that morning and did his regular sword exercises that his doctor recommended for him. He then grabbed his wallet and was about to leave, when his mother called him. She walked over to the front door, and gave him the keys to a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss. He questioned why he she was giving him the keys to a car that he didn't even own.

"Take a look outside," she said, to which he did, he saw the car sitting on the driveway. He had gotten his license a few days ago, and thought he was expected to go and buy his own vehicle. The car was black with black wheels, the rim of the wheels however, were metallic red.

"How'd you get this?!" Caleb asked excitedly, "They were discontinued years ago."

"I knew someone who wanted to get rid of their Mustang, and I knew it was your favorite model, so I bought it and redid the colours and wheels, as well as installed a router in it so that it was like many modern cars." His mom said, happy that he liked it.

"Awesome, I'm going for a test drive right now. Besides I was heading to go buy a game anyways so might as well." Caleb said, smiling widely.

He walked out the door and hopped in the beautiful work of art they called a car, and put the keys in and revved the engine, he sat and enjoyed the sound before shifting into drive and, driving to the local game store.

After he parked and walked into the store, he moved towards the VR section and picked out the game he required to help Kirito, and he then walked towards the counter and bought the game As he walked out though, he saw Suguha.

"Sugu?!" Caleb, exclaimed.

"Caleb?" Suguha asked, before gasping and wrapping her arms around him and giving him a passionate kiss.

As they broke apart, Sugu asked, "I thought you were dead!"

A voice butted in, "Yeah, you piece of shit, why the fuck did you not find us sooner?"

Caleb turned to see Alex with a Jet Black crow with deep red eyes that seemed to burrow into the back of his head and Shino walking hand in hand, "We are all here to get the new game well at least me and Shi-Shi are I'm not sure about you"

The crow squawked at them and wolf gave him a look, "Yes I know Raven we could be doing other things but at least now I know why you never showed up in SAO"

Shino sighed, "He talks to a bird… I thought I knew everything when he tortured the people in a elmo mask but now he talks to a bird"

Alex gave her a mocked look of shock. "Shi-shi darling, I did that for fun Raven well i'm stuck with him" Raven cawed again "Shut it Raven you get no pussy."

The bird Squawked rudely "I said shut it, I don't care if you're some celestial being you're a bird here and you get to stay that way!"

"Can you introduce me?" Caleb asked.

"After you tell us why you didn't contact your girlfriend," Alex responded.

"Well, I was busy in rehab and I couldn't leave my house for two months, and I had a lot of work for rehab to do, if that answers your question," Caleb said.

"Ok, why were you locked in your house?" Suguha asked.

"Because I ran a guild that killed people in that death game, even though my guild only killed killers, the government saw me as a threat, and as such put me under house arrest," Caleb responded, agitated.

"Ok, that answers my questions," Alex said as Suguha jumped into Caleb's arms, "Now this is Raven, my friend, and he is a celestial being-"

"Or so he thinks," Shino said, rolling her eyes.

"Sugu, I assume that you were buying ALO. I just got it now as well. I'm not sure about you Alex but you're free to join as well, even though a game about fairies might not be your type. Owen texted me about the game and asked if I was getting it, so we might end up finding him there." Caleb said.

"I am getting the game, but us all meeting there is going to be a pain because we're all probably picking different races than each other, and because of that, all of our starting points are different." Suguha said.

"Yeah, don't worry about that, I got just the thing." Caleb said. While Caleb walked towards his car, he also said, "Don't be surprised when you look in your inventory when you get into the game." Hinting about Caleb's request to Kayaba to make sure that each of their items would be moved to any games similar to that of SAO that would support it.

When Caleb got into his car and sat down, before he started up the car, he looked at the back cover of the game. He already knew that it was made by the company, RCT Progress, which is why Asuna was trapped in ALO now. Caleb drove back home to turn his Nervegear on, once again and meet everyone there.

Caleb had been in a room, which prompted him to create a Username, and choose his race. Caleb of course picked the name Artemis. He then chose the Spriggan as his race.

Alfheim Online

Artemis landed in Spriggan territory, unlike Kirito, which he landed in Sylph territory. Artemis was almost surprised to see that he had all of his items and armour from SAO. Artemis knew that Owen had been playing the game for a while now, as Oblivion, being his username of course. Artemis was also surprised to see that everyone from his friends list was still there, and he got Leafa's position, and Oblivion's position. Alex had not played the game yet and neither has Matt. He saw Kirito's profile on the list, but his status was Offline, and the only game that showed up in his list of games was 'OASWNILRDTRNE,' which if you unscrambled the letters, it spelled 'SWORD ART ONLINE, meaning that it was corrupted.

Artemis had messaged Leafa to meet him in the same spot where Kirito would land when he entered the game. When they had got there, Artemis asked "So, did you notice how your weapons and armour you had in SAO is in your inventory right now? Because I don't see you wearing your"

As Leafa started to check her inventory, she said "Oh, so you asked Kayaba for those? Before you and Kazuto killed him off."

"Well, we didn't necessarily kill him off. He exit the game just fine but I'm pretty sure he killed himself after." Artemis said.

"Well, you are right about one thing, all of my weapons and armour are in my inventory." Leafa said.

Just then, Artemis got a message notification. It was from Oblivion and it said…

So, I noticed you got Alfheim. I also noticed the fact that I still have all of my weapons and armour from SAO. I keep getting people following me around, asking me about my claws and how I got them. I'm not sure if you know this already, but I hate getting a lot of attention from people asking questions all the time like reporters. Anyways, you stay right there, I'm heading your way. -Oblivion

After Artemis read the message, Artemis said, "Well, we've got some waiting to do. Oblivion is going to meet us here."

"When did he get the game? He should have been doing rehab until this point." Leafa said.

"Well, he's been putting himself under long sessions of rehab. I tried to go talk to him once and he told me, even though he wanted to see me badly, he couldn't because he needed to do rehab. He finished his rehab early and started playing ALO." Artemis explained, as Oblivion was tip toeing behind Artemis, as he gestured for Leafa to stay quiet.

Oblivion suddenly startled Artemis as Oblivion started laughing. "Shit! You don't do that to a guy!" Artemis yelled, drawing his sword, almost killing Oblivion.

"Sheesh! Trying to kill me then... So, what's the deal? Why do I still have my shit from SAO?" Oblivion asked as he stopped laughing.

"I asked Kayaba to do it, even though we might find better weapons and armour here." Artemis said.

"Okay, well how is Alex and Matt?" Oblivion asked.

"Alex's rehab is doing fine, but Matt's isn't going to smoothly." Artemis said.

"Yeah, I'm not too surprised. Exercise isn't really Matt's thing. I also saw that all of my friends from SAO on on my friends list here as well, that's how I got your locations." Oblivion said.

As Artemis got up, he said "Well, we will come here again in 3 months. I'll message you guy's when it's time."

"Time for what?" Leafa asked.

"To meet your brother here and save Asuna." Artemis said as he logged out.

3 months later, Dicey's Cafe

"Enough with the crap! What's with the picture you sent me!?" Kirito yelled, referring to the picture Agil sent him.

"That picture, it was taken in the game. Here, take a look." Agil said, passing him a copy of Alfheim.

"Okay, so you're saying that someone took a picture of Asuna in another game." Kirito asked.

"Caleb, Owen, Alex, and Suguha are playing the game, they might be of help if you find them there." Agil said.

"So, Caleb was right. Sugou decided to trap a bunch of SAO player's into another game." Kirito said.

Suddenly, Caleb walked into the cafe behind them and said, "C'mon, you wanna help Asuna? Get home and get your Nervegear on and we'll be on our way."

Kirito got up and, Caleb gestured Kirito to get into his car to give him a ride. When they got to Kirito's place, he thought about putting the Nervegear on as he was scared to put it on ever since the SAO incident. He thought about it, but then he realized that there wasn't any scary incidents on the news about ALO, so he put his Nervegear on and entered ALO as a Spriggan.

Soon after he chose his username and race, he was already falling towards Spriggan territory, however a big black pit started to form, which Kirito fell into. After he started falling into Sylph territory and landed on his head.

"Hello, old friend," Kirito heard a voice coming from a bit away, to his left.

He looked and saw Artemis, with all of his armor and weapons from SAO, which surprised him, as he didn't know he could get those weapons and armor.

"Check your inventory, I have a surprise for you," Artemis said, smiling.

Kirito did as Artemis asked and opened his inventory, he saw that all his items were corrupted except for his old weapons and armor, which he equipped and he then saw something strange, an item that was called, Yui's Heart.

Artemis saw it and smiled, "Well put it in your hands, I won't wait all day to see my friends daughter."

Kirito quickly opened it and saw that it was a teardrop shaped gem, he pressed it with his finger and a brilliant glow encompassed the gem. The gem formed a young girl, one that looked very adorable.

"Yui," Kirito muttered, unbelieving for a second, before smiling, and saying, "Yui, do you remember me?"

The girl opened her eyes, and saw him, "Yes I remember you, daddy."

She then jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly, "daddy, daddy," she kept repeating the word, overjoyed at the sight of her father.

"Yes, it's me," Kirito said, smiling softly, he then set her down and told her that he was in a whole new game, called Alfheim Online, he then told her he was trying to find 'mommy'. She sat for a second, trying to process this information.

As she was doing this, Oblivion had arrived. As he landed he said, "She looks a lot like you, doesn't she?"

"She does look like she could be Kirito and Asuna's biological child." Artemis said.

"Do you see anything unusual about this game Yui?" Kirito asked.

"Well, the Cardinal system needs updating. The game does use a lot of things from SAO." Yui said.

As Yui continued to explain, Wolf landed behind Artemis and said, "So, Asuna is stuck in this game? If that's the case, let me get my elmo mask and kill everyone."

"The elmo mask, it's becoming some kind of meme to us now." Oblivion said, as he started hovering above the ground.

Kirito finally noticed that the others were there, and asked Yui to tell him how to fly. After he got the basics down, they flew towards Leafa's direction, as they saw on the map that she was in combat.

When they got there, they saw 12 Salamanders attacking Leafa. They all drew their weapons and flew towards them.

As Artemis just reached one, he drew both his swords and sliced the guy into pieces before he could turn to realize that Artemis got there. He then switched to another one and blocked his first initial attack. Artemis pushed his blade away and then stabbed him through the chest. Artemis flew towards another one that was fighting Leafa and then, before he noticed that Artemis was behind him, Artemis quickly decapitated him. Artemis then flew back towards a group of 3 and then killed them all by quickly knocking their swords out of their hands and then sliced them up differently for each one.

They then landed on the ground and saw as there were 6 left who followed them. Kirito quickly ran towards one and then sliced through his chest, and then switched to another one that came in behind him and grabbed his thing? and then quickly stabbed through his chest. Kirito then jumped at one and took his sword and blocked his attack, then he swiftly sliced him up until he died.

Wolf ran towards a group of two, while he drew his khopesh and he quickly cut them in half after blocking their attacks.

Oblivion ran towards one and quickly kicked him back after blocking his attack with his claws. He then cut the guy's hand off and then stabbed him through the neck with his claws.

There was one left hovering above the ground, which no one charged at him yet, as he started to speak...
