Hi, this is my attempt to do a totally different SAO, Sword Art Online. So if any one doesn't like it, I'm open to the flames. But please, instead of lecturing me on what I did wrong, please tell me what I can improve on. Well, read, review, and Enjoy!

I'm watching Tv in my room. The biggest game in history has finally sold its last copies.

"The last copies for Sword Art Online have finally been sold!" The News Lady anounces. Normally, I would be totaly excited for this game, but today just hasn't been my day... just like all the other days since we all did the Beta Tests, and... since I met him.

Flash Back

Just a few minutes ago, I had recieved a call from the creator of Sword Art Online. He said that I was one of the lucky few to be chosen from the USA. I was to fly out to Tokyo, Japan and test the game and review on it. I am totaly excited! My mom? Not so much. On the day when I was in the airport, my mom finally gave in. She allowed me to go.

"Thank you mom!" I cried out and she smiles.

"Be safe Mia. I'll see you when you come back home." My mom called out and I wtched her walk away.

"Flight 205 ready to leave for Tokyo, Japan." The flight attendent announced and I grabbed my stuff and ran to my plane. The flight was about five hours long, I slept most of the hours. We have finally arrived in Tokyo. My eyes sparkled as we landed, it looked alot like New York in so many diffrent ways! I grabbed my stuff after the plane had safely landed. I walk off the plane and I look for the man that would be taking me to the HQ. I finally saw a man in a nice black suit holding a sign with my name on it. I walk over to him and he smiles.

"Hello, you must be Mia Rose. I'm Asukomo Aliski, I'll be escorting you to the SAO HQ." He tells me. I nod my head. He leads me out of the air port and leads me to black limo. My eyes grow wide and my mouth drops. He opens the door for me and gets in after me. I stare out the window in amazement and Aliski clears his throat to get my attention.

"Do you have any questions on the reason that you were brought here?" He asks me. I nod.

"Yes, I want to know what excactly I'll be doing today." I tell him andhe nods his head.

"That was the most comman question asked here. Well, you are going to try out our newestgame called Sword Art Online. To play this game, you need our newst version of the Nerve Gear, a device that allows you to play VRMMORPG games known as Virtually Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games. After you are done testing the game, you may leave a review on it." He tells me, me listening closely. I nod my head, signlaling that I understood every thing that he told me. The limo stops, signaling that we have arived at the HQ. Aliski lead me into the building and he waved to the girl at the front desk. She smiled at me and we kept walking down a long corridor. He leads me to a HUGE room, and when I say HUGE I mean HUGE!

"You should enjoy yourself and create friends before the tests begin." He tells me and walks back down the corridor. I sigh, I'm no use when it comes to talking and making friends. I see a teenager about my age standing alone in the sidelines of the crowd, like me.

"Well, why not try now?" I tell myself and walk torwards him. He looks at me.

"H-Hi, I-I'm Mia Rose." I tell him shackily. He nods and looks away from me. I sigh in defeat and turn around to walk away. Then, a hand grabbed my arm and pulls me back. I turn around and look him straight in the eyes. It felt like he was scanning deep into my soul, searching for something. What he was searching for? I have no clue.

"Kirito." He tells me and lets go of my arm, still looking in my eyes. I turn around, a little shooken up. I can feel his eyes still staring at the back of my head. For some unknown reason, I feel like he's gonna be someone important, and... he thinks I will be too...

Flash Back End

I sit on my bed, holding the Nerve Gear I got just recently. I put it on and lay down. I feel so, I don't know, I... I feel lke something bad is gonna happen. The Nerve Gear turns on and scans my mind. It asks me for my account information.

I type in Rose in the username, then I type in my password. Bright white lights blink in and out, saying, 'Welcome back!' Then the screen goes white and I close my eyes. I allow myself to enter the world of SAO. I open my eyes and I look around quickly. I smile, and pull out my sword from before.

It was made out of the rarest metal that can only be obtained from defeating the Dragon that drops this metal. I glance around and see a familiar young man. I make my way to him. I pass a mirror in one of the shops and I check out my avatar. My avatar's hair was black and long like mine, but my normal pink dyed tips and bangs were replaced in a ponytail of sorts. My outfit was all white, prize drops from the highest level bosses, and my boots were black. Everyone that passed me looked at me with surprise at how powerful my clothes looked. I just shrugged them off, I don't think off myself being powerful.

I look back to see where the young man went, but, he's gone, like he vanished. I could of sworn I knew him. I sighed and looked around. I think of places I could go. The Market Place is out because of new Players here. I guess I could refine my Sword Skill. I began to run put to the fields behind the Town of Beginnings. I ran around the feilds searching for the Wild Boar that roam here. What I found instead, was who I was originally going to talk to.

He had a man with fiery Orange hair. By the looks of it, the familiar teen was training the other man.

"He has to be a Beta Tester." I say softly to myself. I mean, why else would he be training the other man. The teen had to of heard me, 'cause he whipped out his sword in my direction. I back away slowly, my eyes wide with fear. The other man saw me and progressing on me and called out.

"Hey, Kirito! What are you doing? She looks scared enough!" He called out to Kirito. My eyes widen more in shock.

"Kirito..." I say his name slowly under my breath. I quickly turn around to run, but he grabs my arm and pulls me into him.

"Why were you spying on us?" He asked me. I struggled against him.

"I wasn't spying, I swear on my life, I came hear to refine my Sword Skills." I tell him, he turns me around and looks straight into my eyes. He let's me go.

"It's you." He tells me. I look up at him and sigh. I turn around to leave.

" Do you even remember my name?" I ask him, standing with my back facing him.

"Yes... your name is Rose." My eyes widen in shock. I whirl around to face him.

"How do you know?" I ask him. He laughs and pats my head.

"On the side of Player, is their name. Look at mine for example." He tells me, sure enough... his name is there. I literally smack my face with my hand. How could I forget?

"Hey Rose, you two seem to know each other. Are you another Beta Tester? Oh, and the name's Klein." He tells me and I smile to him.

"Yes, I'm a Beta Tester , I think I'm going to log out now, bye you two." I tell them and whip out my hand for my menu. I freeze when I see the log out button fade away from my screen.

"I should never have ignored my hunch!" I shout and run back to the Town of Beginnings. I could hear Klein and Kirito calling out for me.

"I have to make sure that it's just my own problem, not all of us's problem!" I say softly under my breath. I keep running to the Town of Beginnings. A bell rings over in the church at the Town of Beginnings. I stop in my tracks... it's just like my dream. The bell begins to ring, foorcing all Players to Teleport to the center of the Town of Beginnings. I look around to find Kirito, he sees me and waves me over. I walk up to him and the sky turns red. I look up, and see that the sky is full of red warning signs. No... My hunches were right! Then, what looked like blood came from the warning signs. The blood formed a faceless man with a cloak on.

"Hello Players, I am Kayaba Akihiko, as you all have noticed is the fact that there is no log out button. This is not a bug." He says. My eyes widen, I knew it... and I was fore warned of this happening, why did I ignore it? Kayaba continues.

"To win this game, you must defeat every level and its boss. Do that all the way up to the hundredth floor. Also, there is no way for you to be revived. Once your HP drops to zero, you die here, and in the other world. When you die, the Nerve Gear will fry you brain curcits and you will die. You may not leave by having someone take off your Nerve Gear, too. There have already been two hundred deaths from this happening. Well, reach the top, and you will save everyone. l have left you all a present to you all, from me. That is all." He says and the sky returns to normal. I quickly open my inventory and take out this so called 'present'.

"A mirror?" I hear Kirito say and I look at myself in the mirror. Then, a bright flash of light shines and everyone looks different. I look in my mirror and gasp.

"He changed our looks?!"

I hope that was good enough for all of you, please review!
