Tokyo, Japan, 26th of Febuary 2027
The last three days flew by rather uneventfully. Yui had already met her other two grandpas. When Kirito and Asuna came back from their appointment at Thinkers office, they found that Shouzou and Yukito had returned from their golfing trip and where playing with Yui.
Flashback to the 23rd
Kirito and Asuna drove past the Yukki manor's gates and walked into the manor.
''Mom, Yui, we're back!'' Asuna called out to them. No answer.
''Maybe she took her into the city'' Kirito suggested with a shrug. It was then they heard a sound coming from the door to the lobby to their left. It sounded like laughter, a child's and an adults. Kirito opened the door to find his father Yukito on all four giving Yui a piggy back ride with the child gigging and Yukito chuckling.
''Yay! Grandpa horsey!'' she exclaimed while Shouzou and Kyouko sat down sipping coffee, smiling at the scene until Yukito turned to face the couple ''Oh son, Asuna! You're back so soon?'' he asked awkwardly.
''Father?'' Kirito asked while Asuna smiled ''Awww, I guess the old soldiers still got some spring in him to give his granddaughter a piggyback ride!'' she gushed. Yukito frowned.
''Who are you calling old?'' he asked as he set Yui down ''Mommy! Daddy!'' she run to them and leaped into Asuna's arms.
''I see you met you other grandpa's'' she said, Yui nodded ''Aha. Grandpa's the best. They took me to the park and gave me ice cream!'' she told them. Yukito smiled ''Yes. When me and Shouzou here came back from golf, we found Kyouko having lunch with Yui, she told us that she was you're daughter'' he looked to Kyouko who nodded in conformation ''At first we were confused'' started Shouzou ''But then Kyouko said that she was adopted, that you found her while in SAO'' he added whille he ruffled Yui hair making her giggle.
''I still don't get this whole VR thing'' Yukito said ''How can It be a thing?'' he added. Kirito smiled ''Remind me to introduce him to ALFhiem someday'' he whispered to his wife.
Present day
Kirito hummed merrily to himself as he washed the dishes after the family had lunch while Yui was upstairs in her room playing with her toys. He just had a sense of contentment today. He stopped when he felt a hand snake its way up his chest from behind.
''You know Kirito'' said the seductive voice of his wife ''I never knew that you'd be this great with kids'' she finished as Kirito blushed in surprise when she put her hand under his shirt and felt up his 8 pack.
''Er...yeah, I need to be'' he replied turning around as his wife let him go ''As her father, I need to remain as her role model through pretty much all her life. Otherwise she might grow up resenting me as a parent and I don't want that. I want both Yui and the baby to have that perfect family that I never had'' he said lovingly. Asuna smiled ''Aww Kirito that's soo sweet!'' she then smiled seductively ''And sexy'' she added as she unbuttoned the two first buttons on her blouse, showing her cleavage making Kirito blush deeply. Asuna walked up to him and kissed him deeply.
''You know, we haven't tried it on the table yet'' she whispered in his ear. Kirito widened his eyes ''But what if-'' he started.
''It's okay, Yui's preoccupied with her toys and the walls are sound-proof in the house, so she won't hear us'' she said with a wink.
''Maybe but w-'' Kirito argued.
''Oh Kirito. Don't forget all the times you've advanced on me during our marriage'' Asuna reminded him ''During our honeymoon, The bedroom, the shower...the car one time-'' she counted before Kirito spoke up.
''Shut up!'' he said. Cheeks red with embarrassment ''Those times we're different. You weren't pregnant back then and that one time with the car, The song on the radio got me horny and you sucked me off while I was still driving!'' he almost yelled.
''Still, you seem to really enjoy it'' Asuna said with a smirk ''You already made two rap tracks recently about how much you love it and the lyrics were quite...explicit'' she added. Kirito rolled his eyes.
''Regardless, I don't want us to hurt the baby. We both need to be careful until after your labour date'' he said with concern. Asuna sighed in slight disappointment and felt her stomach ''Yeah, I guess you're right'' she said but smiled soon after ''While we're on the subject; What are we going to name it?'' she asked him.
Kirito didn't know how to reply at first. They'd been so distracted with recent events that they didn't really have many opportunities to come up with names. He rubbed the back of his neck ''Well...I really haven't decided on a name yet'' he confessed ''I've got a few ideas but I'm just putting them on hold right now'' he said.
''Okay, I guess I haven't really thought about names too'' Asuna said as Kirito emptied the sink after he cleaned the last dish and took off his gloves ''Well, I suppose there's no rush into it. We still have a few months ahead of us so we have plenty of time'' she added as Kirito held her close.
''How about me make a pact between us'' he suggested, Asuna listened ''If its a boy, I'll name it. And if its a girl, You can name it. Sound fair?'' he asked. Asuna nodded while smiling ''Sounds good to me'' she said before they kissed passionately.
''Eeeewwww!'' said the voice of Yui from the doorway to the right. The couple turned to see their daughter with a disgusted look ''Mommy! Daddy! Stop being gross!'' she childishly scolded them. The couple only giggled.
"So much for being preoccupied" Asuna thought as they broke free from thier embrace and she buttoned her blouse back up.
That afternoon at the dicey cafe
''Okay Klien'' said Kirito ''Make sure those balloons don't fall down on him as soon as he, Gonishi and Sinon enter the bar!'' he pointed to Klien as he fixed the balloons around the empty tables for Sora's 8th and Yui's 4th joined birthday party. Sora was really depressed when Yui disappeared from ALO. So Kirito and the gang decided to throw his a surprise party to cheer him up and to reintroduce him to Yui in the real world.
''You got it bro!'' he called back.
''Asuna, Anaya! Make sure Sora and Yui get first dibbs on the buffet. That mean's you stay clear Eiji!'' he called to the two girls that were setting up trays of party food on the tables.
''Aww man!'' Eiji said in a pout.
''Got it!'' Asuna called back.
''Da!'' Anaya called as well.
''Silica, Nagata, Lizbeth! Make sure the presents are stacked up nicely. No small ones under the big ones'' he called to the three by the large stack of presents for both Sora and Yui. They nodded.
''Agil! No alcohol under any circumstances!'' he said to the man behind the bar.
''Don't need to tell me twice'' he replied before Kirito turned his head to the others then checked his watch.
''Okay, Gonishi and Asada should be here any minute'' he said while Eiji looked out the window ''Try any second. I see them coming up the alleyway!'' he warned them before he ran to his position under the table.
''Oh god, Quick! Everyone hide!'' he said before everyone ran and hid behind anything while Kirito ducked under his table with Asuna and Yui ''Anaya. Switch off the lights!'' Suguha whispered to her. Anaya flicked off the switch and run to Eiji's position ready.
''Ready to meet Sora in the real world Yui?'' Asuna whispered to her daughter. Yui smiled ''Yes mommy'' she whispered back.
''Well be ready'' Kirito whispered ''I'll signal you for when we're ready'' he instructed. Yui nodded as they waited.
The door opened as Gonishi and Asada guided a blindfolded Sora into the cafe.
''Where are we big brother?'' he asked as Asada begun to remove the blindfold.
''Okay'' Gonishi said ''1...2...3!'' He counted as Asada removed the blindfold of Sora's eyes before the light flicked back on.
''Surprise!'' everyone except Yui jumped out as confetti flew everywhere in all directions under a large banner held up on the ceiling saying 'Happy Birthday Sora-' with the other part still covered. Sora jumped a little in surprise ''Ahh!'' he cried as he recovered.
''Happy Birthday Sora!'' Gonishi said as Asada stood by him.
''Wow!'' Sora exclaimed in amazement ''You did this for me?'' he asked. Everyone nodded. Sora just looked around at all the decorations, The balloons, the banner, a piñata shaped like a Frenzy boar from ALO hung on the ceiling above the dance floor and the food table with a large chocolate cake with 12 candles on it in the middle. He looked puzzled.
''Wait A minute! Why are there '12' candles on the cake?'' he asked ''I'm turning eight!'' he reminded them. Kirito smiled as he put an arm around him.
''Well because, there's someone else's birthday were celebrating today'' he explained ''And we thought that we'd add up the candles to equal the two children's ages rather then making two cakes at once'' he added while everyone nodded in agreement. Sora tilted his head.
''Huh?'' he asked ''Who's birthday is it?'' Kirito and Asuna smiled.
''Oh someone we bumped into on the way here'' he said as Yui came into view from behind the table ''Hi Sora!'' she chimed. Sora turned to her and just stared at her mouth agape. He looked like he was about to cry. His eyes started to water and his breathing was getting rugged ''Yui?!'' he asked in disbelief, tears still running out of his eyes. Yui smiled and nodded.
''Yui!'' he cried in happiness as he ran to her and hugged her for all she's worth. the crowd awed as the two children embraced.
''But...I don't understand'' Sora said as he pulled away ''I saw you disappear in ALO'' he said.
''Yes Sora. The AI part of Yui is gone but Yui is human now'' Asuna said smiling ''So you two can play IRL as well as in ALO'' she added.
''Call it a present from all of us'' Gonishi said ''So today, we decided to celebrate both you're birthdays at once before me and Asada fly to Paris tomorrow for our concert!'' he added as Agil tore of the conceled part of the banner to reveal 'Happy Birthday Sora and Yui!' before Sora run to Gonishi and gave him a hug.
''I love you guys! You're the best people ever!'' he exclaimed ''This is the best birthday ever!'' he added.
''Oh, we're not done yet'' Asada said as Kathy walked into the room holding the Chocolate cake with all the candles lit while everyone sang:
''Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday Sora and Yui!
Happy Birthday to you!''
They all clapped for them as Kathy set down the cake in front of Sora and Yui.
''Now make a wish dears and blow out the candles!'' Asuna said as Lizbeth held the video camrea to capture this moment. Sora and Yui smiled to eachother and closed thier eyes together for a moment before the both blew out the candles. Kirito smiled.
''I can probably guess what they wished for'' he whispered to Asuna who smiled in return.
Afterwards, Asuna took off all the candles and sat the cake down on a separate table ready for her to cut the slices for everyone after they've each given their presents to the kids. First was Klien who Asuna mentally vowed to disembowel with the knife she was using if he gave them something inappropriate.
But to her assurance. His gifts turned out to be two really cute whale plushies, one for each of them.
''Thank you'' Asuna said as she handed him his slice ''No sweat Asuna. I know how much Yui loves whales'' Klien said as he walked past.
The next gifts were from Lizbeth; A silver necklace for with a sword crosspiece for Yui and a replica dagger for Sora.
Silica was next; A scale model of Pina and a picture of Yggdrasil for Sora.
Suguha and Kouichirou gave Yui a new flower bonnet like the one her Pixie form wore and a new T-shirt for Sora.
Gonishi and Asada gave Yui a Cherry red Ipod and a Blue Ipod for Sora.
''Your parents will show you how they work Yui'' Asada said before they walked to Asuna to get their cake.
Nagata gave them both a toy robot of his own design and make each.
Agil gave Yui a snow-globe which contained a small scale model of The World tree of Arun and a much smaller model the castle of Aincrad floating around it. He gave Sora a new pack of rare Pokemon cards. Sora told Yui in ALO that he was a huge fan of Pokemon.
Last but not least was Eiji and Anaya's gifts.
''Now, Unlike everyone else here apart from Anaya, I haven't known you two for very long but nonetheless , I hope you two will like these'' Eiji said as he handed the kids two long, thick packages. they tore of the wrapping paper to reveal two bottles of pink hard candies. Kirito looked shocked.
''Yuna was very fond of these. I saw them as I was walking passed the candy store in the mall yesterday and they reminded me of her. I wanted you two have them, for her'' he confessed as Anaya held his hand and everyone awed in remorse for him before Anaya handed Yui her gift ''I had to make sure it was okay with Eiji before I gave this to you'' she said before Yui opened the box to see a very old-fashioned dolly with a smiley-face in a pure red and white dress. Yui held it close ''Who is she?'' she asked.
''That's Sasha'' Anaya replied ''She was mine when I was little Devushka. Shewas all I could salvage from ruins of Inn back in Siberia. I'm too old for her now so I wanted you to have her. You can rename her anything else if you want to'' she said. Yuk shook her head "Na-ah, I like Sasha"She said before hugging her thankfully ''Thank you, Aunt Anaya'' she said. Anaya gave Sora a record of her Violin recordings.
"Awesome! Thank you miss Lakandavich" Sora thanked her.
"You're welcome Sora" Anaya said "Do you play musical instrument?" She then asked. Sorta paused.
"Erhm...I'm more into dance then music IRL. But I can play the fiddle in Alfhiem!" He answers. Anaya look puzzled.
"What is Alfhiem?" She asked. Everyone looked at Eiji awkwardly.
"She's never played ALO before?" Whispered Suguha to him. Eiji shrugged.
"She's never even used a VR nervegear before" he replied. They looked back at Anaya for a moment.
"Well then" Klien said " I think you need to save up for a new Amusphere and a copy of ALO for her" he said.
"I'm working on that" Eiji said.
''And now its our turn'' Kirito said as he and Asuna put a large, wide box on the table. Sora and Yui stared at it oddly before tearing away the wrapping paper and opened the lid to see four foam sword replicas. One was Kirito's Elucidator, the other was the Dark Repulser, another was Asuna's lambent Light Rapier and the last was the Excalibur.
''Wow!'' Yui exclaimed as she picked up the Lambent Light.
''Cool!'' Sora breathed holding the Excalibur.
''Now that you two can play in the real world, we decided to have our swords from SAO and ALO foam replicated for you two to spar together'' Kirito explained. Suguha smiled.
''I'd be happy to give you two some pointers on sword-fighing from my kendo days'' she offered.
''Yay! Daddy said that I would make a Fine swords-woman one day'' Yui said while Sora still marveled the Excalibur ''Hey look Big brother! I'm holding the Excalibur!'' he called out to Gonishi proudly.
The party progressed smoothly with the eating of the cake that Anaya made surprising everybody as everyone first thought that Asuna made it. Some tried their best not to say that her cooking reviled Asuna's, even Eiji had to stop himself from smirking as Anaya gave a proud look at Asuna's jealousy in order to avoid getting slapped around by Kirito Who held his tongue too. After that, they played some party games. Twister, which resulted in Klein and Lizbeth getting stuck in a 'suggestive position' over time which in turn cause everyone except from Yui and Sora to laugh that their embarrassment. Pin the tail on the donkey, which Sora accidentally pricked Eijis hand and the piñata as Kirito almost knocked out Nagata with the bat while being blindfolded mistaking his head for the pinata. After all that, Gonishi was now jocking away at the disco as everyone danced to different tunes that he played as Asuna and Asada watched from the bar.
''Oh Asuna. You and Kazuto really made Sora's day a special one'' she thanked her. Asuna smiled.
''Of course. Sora and Yui both deserve the best of everything and it's our duty to make it so for them'' she smiled as she watched Sora and Yui laugh as they played happily.
''They really are perfect just as they are, aren't they?'' Asada asked.
''Yeah. I wouldn't want them to change for anything. They make such good friends'' Asuna said as the sat in silence for a moment.
''Maybe in the future...they could even be something more'' Asada smiled as Asuna widened her eye a little. She the looked back at her daughter with Sora and imagined them as young adults dancing romantically. She then shook her head and smiled.
''Maybe'' she said ''If Yui can come into the real world as a human, I'm willing to believe anything is possible'' she said before her phone rang. She picked it up and looked at the caller I.D;
Seijirou.
''Oh, I got to take this call, be right back'' she said as she walked into the girls bathroom to take the call ''Hello?''
''Mrs Kirigaya. We need you and Kazuto over at the Ocean turtle tomorrow morning'' Said Seijirou on the other end.
''Why?'' she asked. Seijirou paused for a moment and sighed.
''We need Kazuto to interrogate Sugou'' he replied causing Asuna to widened her eyes in shock.
