Disclaimer: ANE, BRS, and SAO isn't mine.

"Thank you for coming"

The black haired boy said that's while his hand waving to the customer who already walk toward the exit and when the costumer close the door, the boy let out a sigh even though the smile keeps present on his face.

"And that's will end my shift" the boy said before walking toward the staff room. Upon opening the door with a letters read 'Staff Room', the boy is greeted by a middle age man with brown hair who just wearing his working outfit.

"Oh, Okumura-kun, done with your shift already?" The man asks with a gentle tone which the boy answered with a nod and a smile.

"Yeah, though since you are here maybe I should warn you that we out of the arabica coffee powder, better retrieve them from the stock" the boy warned as he unbuttoned his uniform shirt.

"Ah, thanks for the info, I wish you have a good day" and with that the man quickly exiting the room for retrieving the arabica coffee powder. The boy only smiled as he remembers his plan for today. After changing his working outfit into his casual outfit, the boy closed his locker which has a letters on the surface of the door. That's letters reads...

Rin Okumura.

"Yo, Saya, did I make her waiting too long?" the black haired boy named Rin Okumura said to the short brown haired woman who wave her hand at him.

"Not really, she just done wearing her outfit earlier, I will get her for you, so please wait here, Rin-kun" The woman named Saya said before walking back toward the door of her apartment while Rin leaned against the closest wall before putting both his hands into the pocket of his black jeans. Two months already passed since the day of that incident is over. The incident where about 10.000 people who play a VRMMORPG called 'Sword Art Online', trapped into the world of the game itself with the rule, if you die in the game then you'll die too in the real world. Rin or better known as Night when he still inside that world, also one of many other survivors of that cursed game. But, even though all the players of that game should be come back to the real world by now, but the truth is there are about 300 players still not awake, this make a rumor appear, a rumor about there is something behind the disappearance of the creator of that game, Johann Faust, which also make most people think that 'Sword Art Online' isn't over yet. Rin snapped back to reality when he heard the familiar sound which always reach his ear whenever he around her. He smiled when his blue eyes spotted a girl in a wheelchair who seems so absorbed into the novel on her lap, behind her is the same short brown haired woman from before, Saya Irino.

"Yo Mato" Rin greet after pushing himself from the wall he leaned before. The girl, after hearing his voice, closed the novel on her lap and lifts up her head to stare at him and give him a small smile. Rin only can grinned in response as his eyes scanned the girl outfit which consists of a long-sleeved white shirt underneath an elegant blue dress which reaches below her knee with a white belt around her waist and a pair of blue shoes as a footwear.

"Well, I will leave her to you now" Saya said for breaking the silence which surrounds them before she gestured for Rin to grip the handle of the wheelchair. Rin smiled and nodded at her before he walks toward behind the wheelchair and grab the handle of it.

"We will leave now, are you ready Mato?" Rin asks after he ready to push the wheelchair. Mato nod her head ready before smiling and nodding to Saya, the sign that tells the older woman that she should be fine.

"Okay then, see you later Saya" and after saying that, Rin start pushing the wheelchair forward, ready to bring the girl who sat on it to stroll around the town.

"Have fun you two and remember to bring her back before dinner" Saya said while waving her hand to him which Rin and Mato respond by doing the same like her.

One month has already passed since the reunion of two ex-players of the cursed game known as 'Sword Art Online'. It was one of the happiest moment in their life where they can reunite with the person they love. Although, Rin was disappointed he can't catch both Saya and his father for ruining the perfect moment they have (he swears he will pay them for it!). That day also becomes the day where Mato perform the surgery which thankfully nothing happened during the surgery and it went successfully (Rin almost making a hole on the floor with his constant pacing). And from that day, they can bring their relationship from the virtual world toward the real world.

"The real sun always felt better than the fake sun back then at that world" Rin commented with a grin on his face, he can't help but feel an overwhelming happiness. He then stared at his girlfriend who now already focusing her attention on the novel again, by the way, the novel is a gift from him. After a few seconds just walking around (or pushing a wheelchair around to be exact) Mato marked the page of her novel before closes it and turn her head toward him.

"Rin, do you know that you have become quite famous?" Mato said in her usual soft tone which earning a confused look from her boyfriend.

"I don't know what do you say. My reputation is still the same like always" Rin answered truthfully which make Mato rolled her eyes.

"Did you check the news on the internet lately?" She asks for confirming her suspicion.

"Well, no, what with my part-time job, I don't have time for checking such things" Rin replied before scratching the back of his head. True to his words, the whole week he had been busy because of his part-time job. He is doing a part-time job only for one reason. To get money for filling his anime collection again. Mato know exactly why he does it and have no right for preventing him, but at least, she will make sure that he won't force himself too much.

"Lately, news about the name of the player that clear the cursed game has been announced. There is no picture of the player appearance, but the name is already revealed and the name of that's player is Night" Mato explained which make a surprised expression appear on Rin's face.

"Not just the name, but his fighting style too. I am currently trying for looking for information about who spread that news" Mato add while Rin only nod his head twice.

"I see, but it was a bit weird you know. Well, whatever, it isn't like I am going to use that name again" Rin replied with a shrugs. After that both teenagers become silent as Rin's mind trying to process about this new information while Mato simply observe her boyfriend. He needs to make sure to check the internet tonight.

Suddenly Rin stopped walking when they passed a game store and something manages to catching the attention of the blue eyed teenager. A poster that displayed an image of a game that he didn't know about (Considering he not so up to date about these kind of stuff again, thanks to his part-time job). The poster displaying an image of a forest in night-time with two people... Hovering in the air at the center with a red wing for the female and a green wing for the male.

"Alfheim Online?" Rin read what he guessed the title of the game. What the hell 'Alfheim' mean?

"It was a VRMMORPG, just like SAO" Mato said after she heard her boyfriend said that and seem curious about the game.

"You know about this game?" Rin asks while gesturing to the poster of Alfheim Online with his right hand which his girlfriend answering with a nod of her head.

"Lately it has been called 'Alvhame' or ALO for short. Like I said earlier it was a VRMMORPG like SAO. Also Alfheim or Alvhame means the world of fairies" Mato explained about the meaning of the name of that games which make Rin raise one of his eyebrows.

"The world of fairies, huh? Somehow, doesn't it almost identical with the world of swords?" Rin said before starting to push the wheelchair again.

"Perhaps. Also I heard there is no level system in there" Mato stated which make Rin surprised a bit. A game without a level system, what kind of game is that?

"Instead it uses skill development which means the winner of a battle determined by the player own skill and not a level. Also killing other players is allowed in this game, so terms like red player is not exists in this game" Mato explained again which make Rin thought about it a little. A game where there is nothing called level and anything based from the player own skill... Damn this game is a game that will be one hundred percent suited for him, where the strongest player decided by their own skill, not something like level, this what Rin want from a game.

"Also something which make this game become popular, because you can fly in this game using the flight system, it can be said that 'Alfheim Online' is the first VRMMORPG that can make the player feel the experience of flying on the sky, after all, this game focusing on fairy world and a fairy should be can fly" Mato explained again which enough to make Rin listing 'Alfheim Online' as one of many things he will buy once he got his salary.

"This game sounds really amazing to me. I wonder if my salary will be enough to buy one of its copy plus the hardware too" Rin wondered aloud while thinking about this possibility in his mind.

"I also heard that this game is compatible with any version of FullDive technology which mean you can play it with NerveGear" Mato said something which she know going to cheer up her boyfriend and true to her word because a few seconds later she can see a grin appear on his face from the corner of her eyes.

'I am so going to get this game' Rin thought with determination grin on his face. After a few minutes, Rin stopped walking again when something else catches his attention again. A smile replaces the grin when he smells the very familiar scent.

"Hey Mato, do you want takoyaki?" Rin asks when he spots a takoyaki stall. He knows that's stall even before he trapped in that cursed game and he already befriend the owner of that stall.

"I never have one, but I heard from a lot people that it taste good" Mato replied while staring at the stall, just smelling the scent of takoyaki already makes her wanted to try it so badly, but she keeps her composure.

"Hahahaha, well, then I think it was a good chance to prove that's" Rin commented after laughing before quickly push the wheelchair toward the stall. When they almost reach the stall, the owner notices them and giving them a smile.

"Hey Okumura, been awhile since you last come here. Is that pretty lady your girlfriend?" The owner asks when the couple finally stood in front of the red stall.

"Yeah, her name is Mato Kuroi, also, please two takoyaki and make mine more spicy" Rin replied with a grin on his face while Mato only observe the old man who she assumes the owner of this stall.

"Coming up kiddo" the old man said before starting to make their order.

"So how the condition of your body, feels any better?" Rin asks while waiting for their order and in truth, Rin also curious about the condition of his girlfriend's body. Mato only staring at him before she stretched both her arms.

"Yes, it become better than before and the doctor said that I will be able to move my body properly in two weeks" Mato answered with a small smile on her face. Her smile is enough to make Rin show her a gentle smile.

"What about you? I heard from Saya that your brother already go toward the school you going to attend" Mato asks while tilting her head slightly.

"Yeah, and actually, three days before we trapped in Sword Art Online, I am going to go there with him, but, well... Look like the plan changed" Rin replied while scratching the back of his neck and smiled at her.

"Here is your order!" The old man suddenly said while holding two freshly cooked takoyaki.

"Thank you, here the money" Rin said before giving the old man his money before take the takoyaki in his hand. After saying goodbye to the stall owner, Rin starts pushing the wheelchair toward the park near there.

"So how was it?" Rin asks after he sits down on the nearest bench with a takoyaki in his hand while his eyes staring at his girlfriend who for the first time tried to taste a takoyaki.

"Delicious" she said simply before continue eating it. Rin couldn't help, but chuckle a little at her reaction before he starts eating his own takoyaki. The atmosphere around them seems so peaceful as both teenagers enjoy their meal in silence and with the beautiful day like this, it only adds the peaceful aura around them.

"Rin... Do you think Asuna and the rest of the still unconscious players will ever wake up?" Mato asks in a worried tone after she ate her last takoyaki. Rin stopped eating his takoyaki when he heard that question. He also has asked that question to himself, but...

"I am sure they will someday, but for now what we can do is just hoping that the time for them to awake will be soon" Rin replied before smiled at her. He then devour his last takoyaki before letting out a sigh of satisfaction.

"I just hope Kirito could be patient enough for waiting that moment coming" Rin muttered before looking at the blue sky above them. Just remembering about the person who he already sees as his own brother makes him a little sad about his condition. He also will never know what he going to do if himself has to be in Kirito position, will he able to be strong enough for waiting Mato to be awake? He hopes so. And with that both teens become silent again as they absorbed by their own thought.

"Rin, could you stand in front of me?" Mato suddenly asks which make Rin raised one of his eyebrows, clearly confused by his girlfriend request, but nonetheless he obey her and quickly stood in front of her. He just eyeing her with confusion. Before his eyes widen a bit when she suddenly stands up and throws herself to him. Rin reacted quickly and spread his arms with a grin on his face. When she already landed on him, Rin quickly embrace her before spinning her around while laughing. Mato only can smile and snuggled at his blue hoodie when he finally stopping spinning around.

"Don't do that again without warning me first, okay? You are lucky to have a fit boyfriend like me" Rin said while placing his head on top of her head, her soft hair already tickling his chin a little.

"I know, it just you seem so sad, so, I decide to cheer you up" Mato replied while buried her face on his chest while Rin stroking her back, they even ignore all the stares they get as for now, it only them... In their own little world.

Later at night...

"Hmm... I see, so the game starts with letting the players choose one of nine available races, huh?" Rin muttered while his eyes glued to his computer screen. After taking Mato home, he quickly make his way toward his house for dinner and after dinner he quickly go toward his room which now pretty empty since he already sell all his stuff for paying the cost his girlfriend need for her surgery and he will say it again, he never regret his action. And what he do right now? Simple, he gathering more information about the game which catches his interest earlier, 'Alfheim Online' or ALO and of course to check some news and he does find that his avatar name has been revealed in the internet. But he could care less about things like that as he thinks it wasn't important at this moment.

"It's pretty much just like SAO, but with some new features, then again SAO is the first VRMMORPG, so I shouldn't be surprised to see any other VRMMORPG almost look like that cursed game" Rin muttered again while his eyes scanning every words which displayed by his computer screen. Pretty far he has learn many feature from ALO and already decided that he will get this game when he gets his salary. After all, he only needs to buy the copy of the game since he already owns the hardware. Rin glances at his shelf from the corner of his eyes. In there, sat a gray helm with a letters NerveGear could be seen on the helm. Even though all NerveGear should be given to the Ministry of Internal Affairs SAO Incident Task Force, he still able to keep his NerveGear after... A few arguments. This thing, even though it was dangerous, but if not because of this NerveGear, he will never able to meet Kirito, Klein, Asuna, Bon, Shima, Koneko, Agil, Yutari, Yui, and his own girlfriend, Stella or Mato Kuroi. So he decides to keeps it as a memento of that time. Rin smiled a little before shaking his head. He needs to be more focus on the present so he can make a better future for him... And her.

"ALO hottest news?" Rin read aloud the headline of an article he found and decide to check it out. When the article already displayed on his computer screen, his eyes quickly widened and his mouth only can mutter one thing...

"... Asuna?"
