Prologue - A New Beginning

"... and your sure this will work Kazuto-kun." Finished Yuuki Asuna, the barest hint of concern in her voice.

Kirigaya Kazuto, looking up from his work with a tired but content look on his face "Yep, Asuna, this technology has come a long way over the last few years, if all goes to plan Yui-chan will have her own body in this world." A smile broadening on his face.

Asuna smiled to, then frowned "I just don't like that we're using that horrible thing to do this," she says, pointing at the NerveGear suspended amongst a cluster of machines, near the top of one in particular that looked like a cross between a bed and a test tube, "what if it hurts her, it was Kayaba's personal unit who knows what he did to it."

"Kayaba used this to scan his brain well enough to place his consciousness into SAO, accurately enough that he interacted with us for years as Heathclith, and spoke to us both at the end of SAO and we never noticed. I'm going to use the microwave function to stimulate the artificial brain in Yui-chan's new body to mimic the responses from her in the virtual plane, essentially downloading her into the body. I've set up our NerveGear's right here and we'll be on a private server of our cabin from Aincrad, and I have backed up her data for safety. We just spend the day there with Yui and in 12 hours we all wake up, together, you, me, and Yui."

With that said the couple climbed into their NerveGear and lay down, knowing nothing of the storm brewing outside or how very complicated their lives were about to become.


Over Tokyo the most unusual phenomenon was occurring, in other dimensions this event would herald great change. Events would begin and end, heroes would be chosen and champions would return from epic journeys. In this world little would change and life would go on, for all but four people and their friends and loved ones.

Several hours after Kazuto and Asuna begin their day with Yui, Kirigaya Suguha would arrive to talk to her adoptive brother to tell them about her day and the freaky weather conditions outside. Finding the pair attached to the NerveGear's decides to wire her own AUM-Sphere up to the rig. With two words to activat the device seconds before a bolt of lightning would strike the building sending our heroes on a new adventure.

"Link Start!"
