"Mommy! Mommy!" Erika opens up her eyes to see Yui who was staring at her mother's gaze. It was for a little while, but Erika realized something. 

She and Yui was inside a while building, something that she never seen before. "Yui, do you know where we are?"

The girl replied, "It must be a secret building that I told you about. It's strange. I really don't see anyone here, Mommy. " 

Erika looked around, standing up, "Yeah, you're right, it is very strange. It really should've been more guarded." 

That is when something that clicked her mind, to remembering that Yui sensed Kirito's Player ID. 

"Yui, can you detect Kirito from here?" She asked. 

"Let me try." She said, as the girl tries to locate him. 

She said, "He's close. He's very close. This way!" 

Erika follows Yui's lead, as she broke through massive doorways by using her Code abilities, and she helps Yui opened them as fast they could. 

By then, they were outside, and it amaze Erika. "It seems like we really are inside the Top of the World Tree. " 

She looks at the branches, as Erika flexes her wrists, "What a joke. There was suppose to be a floating castle, just like Mitsuki said it would be. 

It's all just a big fat lie! It has to be Sugou's doing, he's going to pay!" 

Yui touches her mother's arm to comfort her to remind her what they been here for. 

She smiles at Yui, as she said, "You're right. We have to get Kirito back to the Real World. C'mon, let's get going." 

They ran through the branches as they possibly can , and in their sights, was the bird cage that Erika saw when she was in the Real World. 

It was no doubt in her mind, that the person who is held prisoner, was no other than Kirito. 

The two girls looked in total excitement and joy that they'll be finally reunited at last, as a family. 

Erika seems to be determined more than ever before, as they continue moving forward to the bird cage prison. 

______________________________________________________________________

It was nearly sunset and Kirito was all alone, thinking about Asuna. He was sitting on his desk, as he heards a voice , an familiar voice, that he never thought he would hear again, 

"Daddy!" 

He turns around to see both of his girls. Asuna was a Sylph, a blue -haired Sylph, and she wasn't alone. 

With her, it was his AI Daughter, Yui. 

His eyes began to fall with happy tears of seeing both of them, as Yui used her Code power to break the cage door to get to him. 

"Daddy!" She said, as Kirito opens his arms to embrace her into his arms, as he said, "Yui!" 

Yui said, happily, "Daddy! Daddy!" 

Asuna was just relieved that Kirito was really there, but she knew that it was a happy moment for all of them. 

Kirito looked at her as he said, "Asuna." 

"Hey, Kirito." She replied. Asuna and Kirito bump their heads together, "Hey. I'm sorry. I should've arrived here sooner. " 

"It's all right, Asuna. I always believe that you would come for me, no matter what it takes. I'm just relieved you're here. That's all that matters to me. " 

Asuna nods, comforted by his words, as she took a big breath as she said, "All right. I think we spend here long enough. 

Ready to head back home, back to where we belong?"

Kirito nods, "Yeah, I'm ready to head back. " 

Erika and Kirito looked down at Yui, as Erika asked, "Hey, Yui, can you log Kirito from here?"

"No, I can't. His status is programmed with codes I don't have access to. We have to find the right console to bypass them. " 

"Asuna, while I was here, I saw a System Console in the library. We could use-" 

But everything stopped as the family was transported to a dark room. 

"What's happening!" Erika asked. 

They couldn't move, as Yui said, "Mommy, Daddy, please be careful. Someone bad is coming. " 

She disappears as Kirito yells, "Yui! Asuna... " 

They tried to reach for each other's hands, but couldn't . 

"Well, well. It seems someone decided to catch my prey." A voice said, as Erika knew whose voice it belongs to. 

"You got to be kidding me! Sugo, it's you!" She said. 

"You really don't have to call me by that name here. In Alfheim, I'm King Oberon. How you like my Zero gravity paralysis?" 

He walked over towards the paralyzed couple as he smirks evilly, as he grabs Erika's sword and puts it on her back!

She winces in pain, "You.. You bastard." 

"Asuna!" Kirito said, struggling to get to her, but Sugou said, "As for you, Kirito, I will have something planned for you! " 

He snapped his fingers as reveals to be chains and he put in Kirito's hands. 

As Asuna watches, "What you doing? G-get away from him!" 

"As you do what? You can't do anything. System Command! Set Erika to Pain Absorption to Level  10 to Level 8!" 

Erika winced, as Kirito yells, "Asuna, no!" 

He struggles with the chains that bind him, as Sugou laughs in happiness of torturing them. 

He went towards Kirito as he touches his body, as he winces, "St-Stop!" 

"Kirito! " 

"I'll be all right, Asuna. This is nothing . " He reassures the Sylph, as Sugou said, "Oh, really? Let's just see how long that bravery will hold, shall we?"

Erika couldn't do anything, as she watched helplessly, of Sugou rapping Kirito. 

"K.. Kirito.... " She whispers as her eyes were fading away. 

She just stay there, as a voice said, "Is that really you going with? Asuna, you're better than that. The Lighting Flash never gives up so easily. 

You can do this, I will give you this chance to prove to him that you mean business." 

Asuna stood up, finally as Sugou looks at her, "The swords at SAO, they're ready pain than this!" 

Kirito was confused as Sugou steps from him as he said, "Awe, look at that. It seems like you didn't learn when to quit! " 

He was about to slap her, but she was so determined and self-contious, as she said, "System Command. 

ID: Heathcliff."

Sugou backs off from her, "What ID are you using?!?"

"Administer privileges. Set Oberon to Level 1." 

"An ID that outranks mine?!? No, that's impossible! I'm its creator, it's God!" 

"No, you're nothing like that. As for that part, you're a King of thieves, you stole its kingdom and its people! 

You really don't deserve it any of it!" 

"You.. You dare to say that! " Sugou exclaimed, as he said, "System Command! Generate Object! ID: Excalibur!" 

Nothing happen as he gets furious, "System Command! Your God has ordered you to do as I command!" 

Erika smiled at his frusted expressions, as Kirito looks at her. 

"Hey, Kazuto, do you think that you could wait a little bit longer? This will only take a sec." 

"Cool. Go for it, Asuna. Beat this guy." He said. 

Her expression changes as she yells out the same command that Oberon did, "System Command! 

Generate Object! ID: Excalibur!" 

It worked for her, as that a golden sword came out towards her. "What a shame. A little command for a sword like this. "

She tossed to Oberon as she said, as she picked up her own sword and points it straight at him. 

"It's time to settle the score. The King of Thieves vs. The Lighting Flash. System Command, set the Pain Absorption to zero!" 

Oberon was scared, "No, not that!" 

"Oh, did I just hear a flinch from you? Oh, that's right, there was a person that I knew never flinches in SAO, he never runs away from a fight! Even things were against him, he never back down! 

You knew whom I am referring to: The Commander of the Royal Blood Oath, Kayaba Akihiko!" 

His eyes widen, as he exclaims, "My God! Kayaba?!? Oh now I get it. 

That was his old SAO status. Why? You were supposed to be dead! You just show up , acting all high and mighty, like a bigshot!

You take what's rightfully mine!" 

"Sugo! I get where you get it from. He took everything from me too. Kirito and I had to work for the guy, but as you can see, we honestly didn't care one bit." 

"You.. You dummy!" He yells, but Erika didn't hesitant for a slight moment, as she deflects the embarrassing attacks from him as she runs through him, leaving a scar across his face. 

He felt the pain, as he touches the scar, "Ow!" 

Erika said, in a cold voice, "It hurts, doesn't it? But it nothing compares to what Kirito has been through, not even close!" 

She slices off his entire arm, as he exclaimed, "My arm!" 

She didn't hesitant again, as she sliced his entire half and threw him up in the air, and pierced him with the sword . 

The scream echoed as she was so mad of what he had done to her boyfriend, as she slices the chains off of Kirito. 

He fell into her arms as they hugged each other. 

Kirito smiled, "Hey, you did great. I just knew you were the one to save me. I believed in you, Asuna. " 

"I.. I really missed you, Kirito. These past few months had been hard, but I knew that.. we can move forward together. " 

She opens the login, as she scrolls down for the log off sector as she said, "It's probably nighttime back in the real world. But don't worry. 

I'll be in your hospital room as soon I can, as long I check on some things ." 

"Take your time, Asuna. I want you to be the first person I want to see when I wake up. Let's make up for loss time together, ok?"

"Yeah, I like that." Asuna said, as she touches the log off button and touches Kirito as he disappears from her, from the prison he was held in for so long. 

"I guess it is finally over, isn't that right... Commander?"

Kayaba came flowing down, "I'm not really Akihiko Kayaba. I'm just simply an afterimage. " 

Asuna said, "Just as usual, I really don't know what you're talking about. I should thank you though. 

You gave me the push I needed to beat Sugo. " 

"I don't deserve praise from you or Kirito. Besides, we're not really allies so to speak. " He replied to her. 

"Still, I still owe you one. I know that you're not leaving without something is on your mind. So, what you need me to do?"

"Still reliable as ever. You really didn't change since SAO, haven't you?"

He showed her something that she never seen before. 

"What's this?"

"It's something I had kept for a while. I called it , "The World Seed. " Once it blooms, you'll understand what it can do. You can do what you want with it, considering that I don't need it anymore. 

I'll see you around, Asuna." 

He disappears as Asuna was back to the cage prison. She turns around, "Yui! Yui, where are you?"

"Mommy!" She exclaimed, jumping into her arms. 

"Thank goodness, you're safe. You got me worried for a bit." 

The little girl replied, "I hid in your Nerve Gear, just in the nick of time before that person came to delete me. " 

She turns around, "Where's Daddy?"

"Don't worry about him. He's back." 

"Really?!? Daddy is back? Thank goodness!" She said, pretty relieved. 

"Listen, I have to go see Daddy now, but we'll come back to this world, promise." Asuna replied as she kissed Yui by the cheek as she logs off. 

________________________________________________________________

Asuna opens up her eyes to see a girl watching over her bed. "Asuna! Thank goodness." 

She jumps up, "I should've knocked, and your father led me here. I'm Sachi Aiko. You know me better as "Mizuki." 

Asuna looks at her, as she sees the reflection of her friend in AFO. 

"Mizuki, I'm so sorry. Did Suguha explained everything to you?"

"She sure did. Boy, you really had me worried . I thought that you were not be able to log off from Alfheim Online. " 

"I'm really sorry that I worried you both. I'm just stunned that of meeting you like this." 

"Me too. So, did you actually done it? You rescued Kazuto?"

"Yeah, I sure did. He's back to the Real World this time. Mizuki... I want.. I want to -" 

"Nah, we can talk to each other later. You really should get to the hospital right away. I bet that Kazuto is waiting for you!" 

They looked at the clock and it appears to be around almost 8 pm. 

She got her bike as her father and Mizuki looked at her. 

"Please be careful out there." Her father said to her. Mizuki said, "I'll be waiting to meet you with Recon and Leafa soon! Say hi to Kazuto for me!" 

"I will! I can't wait for all of you to meet him for real!"
