My name is Kirito, and I am fourteen. I have black hair that is swept into my eyes, and I have large, dark eyes. Until recently, I loved playing VRMMO's. It all started one day when Aincrad became a place of a virtual Hell. I was one of the beta testers for the VRMMO Sword Art Online. I had reached a nice level of around twenty. There were 1000 beta testers, and we tested the game for a month. I learnt a lot of sword skills over that course.

It was November sixth when everything went to hell. I had met this guy named Klein, and I was showing him the basics of how to fight in SAO. He soon got the hang of it and gained some experience points. We sat down on a hill and watched the setting sun of the beautiful Aincrad evenings. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Everything in Tokyo was just so industrial and modern, I never got to experience such a beautiful sunset in nature.

"Well I should get going," Klein said to me. His spiky red hair moved in the gentle breeze. "I am having some friends over and we are gonna eat a pizza!" He flicked his finger in front of him, bringing up the main menu of the game. He scrolled down and had a perplexed look on his face.

"That's weird..." he grumbled. "The logout button is missing!"

I checked my menu, and sure enough, my logout button was gone.

"What's gonna happen to us if we can't log out?" Klein said in a whiny voice.

"I'm sure it is just a glitch. They will most likely have it resolved soon." I told him in a calm voice. I was always good at keeping a calm demeanor. I was trying to not think about what would happen if we couldn't log out.
