The One Left Behind
(SAO Fanfiction)
If the paralyzing affect wore off I could not tell. I was to shocked about what happened before my eyes. Kirito, the beater solo player along with Asuna second in command of the KoB just died fighting Heathcliff. Who we now know is Akihiko Kayaba the man who trapped all Sao players here. Somehow Kirito was able to stay alive long enough to finish Kayaba off. Then we all heard those magic words. ATTENTION: The game has been cleared. We were all still stuck due to the paralyzing affect but when it wore off I saw some people still standing there. In shock of what has been announced. Then in an instant I saw hands shoot down and log out. All accept me and these two others who were close friends of Kirito and Asuna. One was bald and had a battle axe while the other had a bandana along with a katana by his feet. I figured I should leave them be after these past few events.
I had one last thing to do first. I had to find my friend James. I and James met when Sao first launched. He teased me due to the fact that my name was Bruce and that was name for strong people while I had were arms that were fit but not bulging with muscles. We soon became close friends and made a party together. Two years later and we had a home on the 54 floor. He chose to stay back while I went one to fight the boss. I understood why. We both heard the story's on how strong this boss is. Along with a game changing detail. No teleport crystals. We both have had our fair share of anti-crystal rooms but never in a boss room. Only way the doors open is if you beat the boss, or you die. I had to get back to the 54 floor and find James. So I did what I do best in this game, I ran.
