Family Time

They entered the game as Suguha was still waiting for her brother and Asuna as Kirito appeared in his Spriggan character and Asuna as a Sylph with blue hair not wanting to use her Titania character as she deleted it because of the bad memories.

They went through the smaller quest until Suguha then guide them towards Alne. Once there they walked through the city and many memories came to life from the Town of Beginnings of SAO as Alne wasn't the capital any longer but still a hot spot to meet the Sword God and Spear Goddess since they always buy ingredients in Alne before returning home.

Kirito and Asuna knew to find those two they only needed to search one thing a tranquil place as they mapped out and found a place that would normally be tranquil but wasn't when they arrived as people were forming a circle to see what was going on inside.

They approach and see John fighting some Salamander with a rare sword that passes through John's sword as it touched his upper body John asks, "Is that all."

As he swings Yamato and kills him right there before picking the sword up and says, "Is there someone else if not go home I have other things to do than entertain you."

The people leave as John puts the sword he gained with the other swords he won when Kirito and Asuna approached him with Suguha as John says, "As I said before I have things to do."

"We are here to talk," says Asuna as John turns around and Suguha could now see that John was more than a giant that the people said he was as John smiles at them.

"Already back. I thought it would take longer to heal from that mental scar but it seems you overcame it," says John as he hugs both and raises them into the air while saying, "Welcome back you two. But who is that girl?"

"She is my sister," says Kirito as he waves at Suguha to come over and continues, "She wanted to meet the person who could defeat me with just his fists."

"Nice to meet you," says Suguha nervous as it was the first time she met John.

"Hey don't be too nervous girl. We are between friends here. Let's go home," says John as he walked carrying the swords he won today.

They meet Nesiara as she was carrying spears that she won and she hugs Asuna straight away as they arrived at home. It looked magical as if come out of a painting.

They enter the house and they could see a little belly on Nesiara as John says, "I told you not to go fighting."

"You aren't the only one that has a right to have fun darling," says Nesiara in a scary tone as Yui comes between them with her cuteness to save the day.

Slowly Suguha's opinion on what Asuna said changed as she could see that many strange things lived in that house. As even the house felt quite warm like her own house.

"A Suguha you learned Swordsmanship?" asks John as Suguha only nods nervously when John says, "How about we visit a friend of mine. He should have acquired the title Sword Emperor by now I think."

"What do you mean?" asks Suguha as the others giggle when John swings Yamato and a portal opens in front of them.

Suguha was surprised while the others weren't and John says, "Now come on the portal doesn't stay open for long."

They enter and find themselves in a big courtyard and Kirito asks, "Are we still in Japan?"

"Yes but not in your world but in our first world. It's been longer than three years since we were here last," says Nesiara as she walks towards the door and opens it finding the Mukuro group missing while saying, "Strange."

"You don't think Jack would let them live all eternally in that house, did you. They must have bought themselves a house by now with Lancia's help," says John as they leave the house and walk towards were the Sasagawa siblings live as they find Ryohei training with Hibari.

"It seems you will never change," says John as both turn to see John and the others.

"You are back. Finally, you worried us when you didn't return making the Mukuro Gang feel awkward living in the house always thinking that something happened to you two," says Ryohei as he didn't notice the other people when Hibari's bird flies and lands on Yui's head.

"Since when?" asks Hibari as he sees Yui.

"More than half a year," says John as Yui hid behind John.

Ryohei saw Yui and smiles at her while saying, "This big brother might look scary but on the inside, he has a heart of gold like your father."

Yui had no fear for Ryohei as he picked her up and he says, "It seems you will be as beautiful as your mom."

Hibari nodded to that without thinking as they began to talk and presenting each other when John asks, "Where is Takeshi?"

"He must be in the dojo at this time. Why are you going to spar with him again? He got quite strong over the last years. He defeated Squalo last year taking the title Sword Emperor from him making you his next objective," says Ryohei as they walked towards where Takeshi lived.

"Then he will have to wait first, our friend, Suguha will have to fight against Takeshi before I fight him," says John as Yui was on John's shoulder.

"You became soft. I remember you being colder now you even have friends that aren't just me and Hibari," says Ryohei with a smile.

"You can thank Yui here she warmed my heart up isn't that right," says John as Yui was quite proud of hearing that.

They arrive at Takeshi's house and find Takeshi in the dojo training when Suguha says, "Woah we also have a dojo at home. But this one seems bigger."

"That's because Takeshi's father had to make it bigger since more people come to learn Kendo here lately," says Hibari who knows everything that was going on in the city.

They enter to find Takeshi training alone in the dojo as John says, "I heard you got stronger."

"Not only that. I also defeated Squalo. He comes once in a while trying to get the title back. Sometimes someone else arrives wanting the title," says Takeshi as he looked more mature.

He gets in position to attack when John only sighs, "Alright it seems Suguha that you will be his second match."

John takes his shoe off and draws Yamato. Both look at each other as both see each other aura making them look bigger than they are as Suguha became scared seeing that saying, "I should fight this monster."

"Don't worry he won't use all his strength also he used to be like you a novice in fighting to the dead. He even got killed and was revived by Jack. That opened his eyes in how much talent isn't worth without practice," says Ryohei as they watched when Takeshi gave up before even swinging the swords.

"What happened?" asks Suguha as Nesiara explained it to her that they were fighting in their mind instead of physically slashing at each other.

"Now Suguha it's your turn," says John as Takeshi looked at Suguha with a smile.

Suguha takes a kendo sword from the stance as does Takeshi and they begin to fight as Suguha loses easily and Takeshi says, "You have a good foundation but you never fought a real fight."

"What do you mean?" asks Suguha as she felt offended by that.

"He means that your sword never smelled blood before. Everyone here except for Yui did," says Nesiara as Yui walked towards Takeshi who picked her up because his aura was so relaxed.

"What a nice daughter you have. She has your eyes as I can see but I really hope the rest is from her mother or she will be an Ice Princess," says Takeshi as Hibari was hiding his smile and Ryohei was on the floor. The others were giggling while Suguha had no idea what was going on.

"Where are Fang and Jinx by the way?" asks Takeshi as he didn't see the pets of the two.

"Guarding our house. Sometimes a thief tries to enter only to die by their hands," says Nesiara as Kirito and the other two could understand that with all the weapons they are hoarding.

"We should find Tsuna and the others they would most likely want to hear the good news of Yui and the one that's coming," says Takeshi as John takes Yui back and they began moving towards Tsuna's place.

Once there they find Lambo and the others there as Lambo suddenly got sad that he was replaced as John picks him up and puts him beside Yui that made fast friends with Lambo and I-Pin who was in Nesiara's arms.

This made Kirito and the other two suspicious as Nesiara fast cleared up the misunderstanding Lambo created.

Tsuna was with Gokudera, Haru, Kyoko, and his mother while his dad was outside and Reborn was with Bianchi seeing a movie.

Now with Reborn being an adult again, he felt that he had many things to do before returning to Tsuna's side again.

The friend began to talk telling stories about the adventures they lived without the help of the two monsters while Nesiara was telling the story about Aincrad.

They all had fun until Tsuna asks, "What happened with the war you wanted to participate in?"

This was like a cold bath because John and Nesiara forgot about that as John says, "Damn I forgot."

"Don't worry we can go tomorrow to look at how they are doing. But it's getting late and the others need to return," says Nesiara as the other three nod and John was convinced with Yui's help to postpone it until tomorrow.

They returned home and once at home all three logged out of the game while John and Nesiara made together dinner for the little family.
