Asuna anxiously stares at the unopened box sitting on her bed. Her hands tremble nervously as she holds a pair of scissors between her slender digits, eyes gently caressing the package.
The biggest advance in VRMMO technology since the invention of the NerveGear itself.
The system is designed to attach to any NerveGear or AmuSphere and implant itself in the internal hard drive. It inserts an AmuSphere-type device into the game, allowing any NPC or player character to don it, allowing their avatar to appear in the real world. Most people were thrilled about the advance in technology so that they could enter ALO or another VRMMO to try and convince an NPC girl to put on the AmuSphere and be their real-life virtual girlfriend. It's basically like an opposite VRMMO's; it acts as if ALO is the real world, and the real world is the virtual reality.
Asuna has no intention of bringing any "virtual lover" or "personal servant" into the world, for she has only one other person she wants here.
Yui. She steps forward to slice the tape off the white-and-blue packaging, slowly revealing a small, black chip to be inserted into her AmuSphere. She'd downloaded the client for ALO this morning, and all she needs now is the actual program to allow Yui to appear in the real world. She'd programmed it so that the virtual AmuSphere would appear on their kitchen table in their cabin on Floor 22, allowing Yui quick and easy access to her world.
What if she doesn't like the real world?
What if she doesn't want to live here with me once she realizes I'm not as strong and mighty as I am in game?
I wish Kirito could be here, and he wasn't at a government facility in the United States to report on the GGO murders.
Despite her own thoughts, the chestnut-haired girl moves to slowly slide the small chip into her headset. The device lets out a few tonal beeps before vibrating a little bit, then becoming silent again.
And now, I wait. She saunters over to the other side of the room, grabbing her purse off her desk chair. Out of the bag, she pulls a stuffed bear donning a pink neck-ribbon, a pair of pink, frilly pajamas, and a huge bag of candy. She'd picked this stuff up earlier today, all in preparation for her daughter's 'arrival.' Suddenly, from across the room, a beam of light shoots from her AmuSphere. Asuna startles heavily, nearly dropping the things she'd picked up for Yui. After a moment, the light dissipates, replaced by a blurry figure. Slowly, Asuna makes out features of the girl as she slowly approaches.
