Hello my beautiful readers! Before my pre-chapter rant, I'd like to sincerely apologize for my inactivity. A lot of things have been going on in my life and they've been interfering with my writing schedule and for that, I apologize.I'd like to thank Libby8980 for the help she gives me on The Savior of Olympus and the Hero of Hyrule, and Amelia F. Jane for letting me post her story, Jingling Souls. Having people to help me really cuts the writing process down for me and I'm grateful for it. Now, at the time I'm writing this, the Majora's Mask 3D remake is almost upon us, but I'm going to keep posting despite my urges to play it. Now that my big speech is over, I want you to know a few things. One, I am exhausted, the idea for this story hit me last night and has kept me up ever since. Two, I am not abandoning any of my incomplete stories, they will be on hiatus until further notice. Finally, after March 2015, I will not be as busy, as my school band is doing something HUGE and I am vital to it. I'll explain later what it is. Now, this story will mainly be OCs based off of me and some of my friends. "Hey, SimplyDerpy, could you do the disclaimer for me?"

"GoldofTermina doesn't own SAO or any of it's characters. He makes no money from this story."

Zac's PoV

"So we're still on for starting in The Seed today, right Zac?" My best friend, Evelyne asks. I shake my head and turn to look at her. She's about five foot six inches with long golden blonde hair. She has pale skin and blue eyes. We had planned to start playing the new VRMMORPG that used an altered version of the old SAO data mixed with the ALO data. Just then our friends Kyle and Victoria, who are going to be joining us in The Seed, walk up. "You guys talking about our plans?" Kyle asks. He's as tall as I am at about six foot two, with short dark brown hair, brown eyes, and slightly pale skin. His girlfriend, and my only other female friend Victoria, with long black hair, brown eyes, pale skin, and some black make-up standing next to him. "Yeah. Evelyne was just asking if I was still okay to play tonight. By the way, yeah, I'm still good to play." I have curly dirty blonde hair, blue eyes, and the least pale skin out of the four of us. We're a strange bunch, but we get along. Before the bell to dismiss us from school rings I say, "Alright, let's meet up as soon as possible in-game." They nod and get into their seats so the teacher will let us leave. (about twenty minutes later)

"Hey mom, I'm gonna be playing online with a couple of my friends for the night so I'll see you later alright?" I say as I walk past my mom's room, one of the first rooms you pass in my house. "Okay, see you later!" She yells back. I walk into my room, the last room in the house. I set my backpack next to my door and take off my shoes. I activate my computer and boot up The Seed. I connect my old NerveGear helmet and lie down on my bed. I go through the boot up screens and start the game saying, "Link, start!"

I'm brought to a screen saying, "Select your species." Showing a couple different types of fairies. Having done a bit of research, I knew that the different species had different abilities and chose the Salamander. I input the player name as Silver. The world loads in and I see that I spawned in a fire-based area. I figure that the others wouldn't choose this race and started to walk towards the center area. Another player, a more experienced one, said, "You know you can fly right?" I look at him and say, "Yeah, I just don't know how..." He chuckles and gives me a brief tutorial on how to fly without using the Wii Nunchuck-esque device and then left. I start to fly towards the World Tree. 'I wonder if this world will be better off than SAO...'

THAT'S IT! At least for chapter one. Now, so I don't have to go into as much detail next chapter, the races that my friends chose are Kyle: Imp, Victoria: Spriggan, and Evelyne: Undine. They all look practically the same, just wearing their respective race's color. Now, my school's band has been selected to be a part of the National Concert Band Festival. Only the top five schools who apply are chosen. So, yeah. That's why I'm so busy. Also, shout-out to SimplyDerpy, he's a friend of mine IRL and he has a YouTube channel. So if you want, you can go and check that out. He's also in this story, but don't tell him you know his real name. (If you've figured out who it is.) Thank you all so much for reading and reviewing and sticking with me during my inactive times. One day I might even make a video with him and you'll get to hear my voice, but whatever. Thank you for reading and have a wonderful month.
