Welcome to my own take on SAO and the stories beyond! This story features an OC who was a beta tester like Kirito. When he entered the game, he made different choices and had his own adventures and mishaps.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Sword Art Online or any of the characters related to it. I'm a teenager. I don't really own anything. Except my OC. :)

Prologue

I really hate this tunnel. There's an angry guy chasing me and it is showing no sign of ending soon. Of course, if I died, it wouldn't be so bad, but I still would like to avoid it. Finally I saw the light at the end of the tunnel as a sword flew past me. Great. He's a sword-thrower. I then decided to never be that sword-throwing guy. He sucks. I dodged the next sword and spun into an attack. I could feel the skill activating as I began the powerful move.

"Razor Spin!" I yelled as I finished the strike. He died cursing my name. Hey, he'd respawn soon enough. As I walked out of the tunnel and looked at the setting sun, I remembered everything that I had learned about this amazing game, Sword Art Online (SAO), and was once again glad to be one of the beta testers. I wished that the beta wasn't going to close in ten minutes. I sighed and logged off waking up in the real world, and then went to grab something to eat.

Life in the real world was the same as ever. I went to school, did my work, and basically lived out my regular boring life. I was so bored that I started replaying old RPG games while I waited for the best VRMMORPG to finally be available to play once more. Later, I'd remember that feeling and laugh. Any way, soon the game would open up worldwide and I would be joining them.

After all my waiting, today at 1:00 pm I lied down on my bed and put on my Nervegear. I looked at the ceiling and watched as the clock changed to 13:00.

"Link Start!"

Hello again! I wanted to let you know that with a story with so many characters, I will need occasional OCs to fill in characters that I meet on my journey. By the way, I already have a disclaimer on the prologue so don't expect me to keep making them. I only own my own oc. I will list all the characters and the OCs owners at the end of the prologue as I get them.
