"I promised to fall in love with you again!" ( Sword Art Online SAO Kirito X Asuna )

Chapter 1: The Cancer

Kirito's POV:

Cancer..... I hate it...

A handful of people got cancer from testing a new MMORPG, it had a glitch which affected a trigger on cancer in the handful of bater testers.

Asuna was one of those bater testers, fortunately her cancer was curable and won't cause too much of a problem, however the other testers had gotten cancer in different parts of their body, one died by a faulty surgery.

The game makers have been arrested straight away without even so much as a second thought.

.... I don't know what to do....

... Recently Asuna had to have a surgery because of cervical cancer...

Asuna is so depressed about not being able to have children, she wanted to have kids because she loved Yui, and having a child...

She locked herself in her room the other day and went without eating or sleep. I don't know what to do...

Luckily she isn't in any pain and wont get any pain in the future because of it!

But still.... No ones going to be able to heal the emotional pain she's going through....

Oh Asuna.... Why did I let you test the game.... It should have been me! Now Yui can never come to life...

--------------------------------------

No ones POV:

Kazuto sat on the jet black sofa cradling Asuna. The silence was interrupted by a vibration and muffled music.

"I WANNA GO MY WAY! BREAK OUT! BREAK OUT! JUST DO IT NOW HEY! JUST GOTTA BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!

NONSTOP BREAK OUT! BREAK OUT! JUST DO IT YEA-" it was cut off by a startled virtual swordsman who jumped up at the sound of his phone go off.

He answered the phone to Klein, the now husband of Suguha.

"What is it Klein?" Kirito asked irritated.

"KIRITO! ITS SUGUHA!" Klein sounded panicked.

-------------------------------------

Asuna's POV:

Kirito looks horrified. What's wrong?

"Asuna, we have to go to the hospital now" he said in a panicked but calm voice.

"Kirito? What's wrong?"

"..." The moment of silence was agonising!

"Kiri... to...?" I said worryingly,

"It's Suguha.... She's in... The hospital...."

I couldn't stop thinking of the worst scenarios! What's wrong with her?! Is she okay?!!!!

I nodded and swiftly made it to the car. The drive there was quiet, even if Kirito was focused on the driving im sure, like me, he was terrified too...

We ran into the hospital - then signed in - then ran up stairs - and rushed to the room door. The panel had
'Kirigaya Suguha' below the number '103'.

I looked at Kirito, he nodded and I gently knocked the door. Klein opened the door. Wait. Was he....
Shaking?.....

Kirito walked in first; I was still oblivious to the situation, all I knew was that it was an emergency. I slowly walked behind Kirito and peered from his side to see Suguha sitting in a blanket and white pyjamas. She gestured us to sit down on the chairs beside the left side of her bed.

"I think I should explain myself..."

Klein's POV:

We all listened attentively.

"Asuna, you know that MMORPG you tested..."

I looked over to Asuna and she nodded in a gloomy fashion.

"Well... One of the other bater testers was...... Me..."

We were all horrified at the announcement, why didn't she tell me?! I'm her husband aren't I?

"I wasn't going to but when I was shopping in Alfheim's virtual mall, one of the game makers recognised me from the leaders board on ALO. He asked me to test it out so I did a few days before the other bater testers. When the news got out that they were getting cancer I got checked out by the hospital.

At first they didn't see anything too bad so they got me to come in every week for a check up for a while but this time... They noticed I have brain cancer" she was hesitant with every word and gritted her teeth, tears started forming in her eyes and she clenched the blanket in her fists... Suguha....

"Now I'm going to have to start getting Chemo therapy but that means my short term memory will be pretty shitty. The problem is... I'm.... Pregnant... With a girl but because of the cancer brain genes she won't be able to be an actual 'living person' just an empty vessel"

I'm holding back tears, why didn't she tell me? I thought she was just eating a bit more... If you catch my drift.

"I wouldn't be able to look after a child though, and I know that you Asuna can't have any children so I was thinking over it and thought maybe you could have my daughter when she's born"

"But isn't she an empty vessel?" Asuna questioned.

"No... I have an idea!" Kirito looked up.

"What?" The girls said in unison.

"What if I made a chip with Yui's data and information in and we transplanted it into your daughter"

The two girls looked hopeful at him.

"Can you really do that Onee-chan?!"

"Yeah I should be able to" the two girls started crying.

"Thankyou Suguha! Arigatō!"

Asuna, Kirito and Suguha formed a group bear hug.

"I guess I don't need an abortion aha" Suguha said smiling wiping her tears as the group disbanded, Kirito and Asuna gave their farewells and went home.

"Are you okay with that?" I was asked by my darling wife.

"Yeah" I smiled to brighten the mood.

"So how long will you have chemo therapy?" I continued.

"Quite a few years, around ten, but that's okay, and if your worried about me not having a child it's fine, I wasn't really the mother type... but I maybe an aunt type?" I smiled at her and walked over and held her in a close embrace.

"As long as your okay and don't leave me I'm fine"

"I won't" I was so happy to hear those simple words. I was just happy to be alive with the love of my life.
