Special: Ordinal Scale

(This is recap of what happened in Ordinal Scale with my changes in what happened along with some scenes.)

I remember when all this started. The Augma, the first true augmented reality device. Comparing it virtual reality, instead of being put into another world, the real world shifts and changes to fit whatever your doing. In this case, we're talking about an AR game by the name of Ordinal Scale. People we're ecstatic about this game being able to be whoever you wanted and wield swords and guns alike. The other thing to prominently rise in AR was the debut of the first ever AR Idol, Yuna. Personally, I never really fancied her but Keiko and Sugu adored her. I played Ordinal Scale but never really got interested. Of course, people like Asuna just kinda forced me to play with them. When I got back into it, the first thing I noticed aside from Kazuto falling over due to having to use your actual body weight, was the appearances of Yunna and that second-ranked player, Eiji. The weirdest thing about Ordinal Scale was that a lot of the bosses were bosses from SAO. Not inspired, like literally ripped out of Aincrad. Of course knowing our little gang, we got dragged into another mess. Asuna and Kirito were both struck by one of these SAO bosses. Something was not right, I could see that. They both fell unconscious with tears in their eyes. I held Eiji at AR sword point but he just left with the SAO bosses. They seemed fine but I worry for them. As I laid in my bed restless on what happened, I received a call. I reached over towards my nightstand and picked the phone up. It was from Kazuto asking me to meet him at his cabin in ALO.

.........

Maverick:What's up, Kirito.

Maverick stood in a dark room as he casted a light spell illuminating the room partially revealing two people sitting on the couch. Kirito and Asuna. Asuna stared at the ground while Kirito looked at Maverick.

Asuna:Mav, do you remember when we bought this cabin?

Maverick: Uh.......

Asuna: I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked-

Maverick: Two and a half years ago. I remember Kirito was practically jumping up and down.

Kirito: I was?

Mav: Yeah man. Ah, that takes me back.

Asuna: I see........

Maverick: Why're you asking this anyways, Asuna?

Kirito had a downtrodden expression before he spoke up.

Kirito:We can't remember, Mav. Hell, I'm surprised I still call you Mav....

Maverick: You can't remember?

Maverick approached the two as Asuna quickly got up and clutched the boy tightly as tears began to stream down her face.

Asuna: I can't remember! Why can't I remember?!

Maverick: Calm down okay? Take a deep breath...nice and easy.... It's gonna be okay, I swear, Asuna.

Kirito: Mav.....

Maverick: Come here.

Kirito got up from the couch and joined the hug as a couple tears fell from Kirito. The confused lovers clutched to their friend tightly as Maverick clenched his teeth.

Kirito: What's happening to us?

After Kirito and Asuna confided in me, I took them to the hospital to get a check-up. They apparently had their brain scanned in certain areas. Specifically in the areas that were related to SAO. Of course, that's not all. There's been a similar amount of cases like Kirito and Asuna. To make matters worse there was a chance that they could lose more of their memories. I decided to take them all around New Aincrad but they couldn't seem to remember at all.
