-Chapter 4=The Death Game Begins- (This was mostly in Angel's shoes)
As Angel stared intensely at the flashing warning sign, it started to multiply, and within 10 seconds, the whole town square was surrounded by a strange dome of these hexagons reading "Warning" and "System announcement" suddenly, a red liquid started oozing out from in between the signs. Then, it looked like the red liquid was taking shape, an electric current started flowing through it. Until it finished taking shape and a hooded figure was staring down at us. However, this hooded figure it did not have a face 'It is not possible that, this, is the game master!'. she continued staring, until a booming voice started speaking.

"Attention players, I welcome you, to my world" 'What is he saying?' I thought to myself, suddenly, a message popped up, words being added as he said them 'ohm, well, I am glad they considered the deaf people in this!' "My name is Akihiko Kayaba, and as of this moment, I am now in control of this world." 'This guy must be nuts!' I thought to myself. "I am sure most of you have already noticed an item missing from your main menus, the log out button" 'I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for that button you pressed if you can't talk, I would have been in the dark!' she thought. "Let me assure you, this is not a defect in the game, I repeat, this is not a defect. This is how Sword Art Online was designed to be". 'You have got to be kidding me, is this guy serious' I thought, shaking my head. "You cannot log yourselves out of SAO, and no one from the outside will be able to shutdown or remove the Nerve Gear from your head. If anyone attempts to do so, a transmitter inside the Nerve Gear will discharge a microwave signal into your skull, destroying your brain and ending your life".

'That is possible, it is all in the wiring. I think that it was somewhere in a site I checked out saying that Nerve Gears are dangerous, of course, at the time I believed that all to be lies due to the fact that the Nerve Gears are, well, where, just used as games.' she thought, 'How will I let everyone know?!' she hit herself on her head and a few people looked at her strangely, before continuing looking at Kayaba.

"Despite my warning," he continued, I was focused on looking at the screen that was typing everything for me, since I couldn't understand anything that he was saying "the families and friends of some of the players have attempted of removing the Nerve Gear. An unfortunate decision at the least, as a result, the game now has 213 less players than when it began. They have been deleted from both Aincrad and the real world." Angel looked up at him as news coverage started surrounding him, there was tons of them and they were all circling him.

"As you can see, international media outlets have round the clock coverage of everything, including the deaths. At this point, it is safe to assume that the likelihood of a Nerve Gear being removed is minimal at best. I hope that this brings you a little comfort as you try to clear the game. It is important to remember the following, there is no longer anyway to revive someone in the game, if your HP drops to zero, your avatar will be deleted from the system, forever, and the Nerve Gear, will simultaneously destroy your brain", Angel never broke eye contact with the message, she was intent on seeing what he had to say next. 'There is no possible way for this to be a joke anymore.'

"There is only one way for a player to escape now," 'and that is?' she thought eagerly, waiting for the rest of the sentence to come to light, well, be written down on the message board for her. "You must clear the game", 'That actually, makes a bit of sense, so, you have to finish the game in order to be rid of the game. I wonder if the other players can understand...' "Right now you are all gathered on floor 1, the lowest level of Aincrad. If you can get to the boss chamber and defeat the boss, you may advance to the next floor, defeat the boss on floor 100, and you will clear the game!" the message told me. '100 levels... Incredible, it's hard to believe that it is even possible when the Beta-testers had 2 months and unlimited lives and could not defeat past floor 10!'

"Last but not least, I have placed a little present in the item storage of every player, please, have a look." Angel slowly opened her item menu, 'What could I possibly do with a mirror? Well, I guess I should take it out, since everyone else is.' All around me I noticed people were getting engulfed by blue flames, she quickly was engulfed as well. 'I wonder why the flames do not burn' However, I guess since I didn't lie about my appearance nothing changed, I still had the gear I was wearing, but, all my items that were in my storage were gone 'Why would all of our items be deleted?' (If you watched the first episode of Sword Art Online when Kirito went to pull out the mirror guess what, it was the only item in his item storage)

When the flames other people got engulfed in cleared away, I was guessing that they would delete the avatars and show peoples true faces, etc. and I was proven to be right. Everyone else seemed to drastically change, it surprised me how much other people had changed themselves when they selected there avatars, I am guessing since I didn't change at all that they assumed that nothing had changed for me, because a few people who noticed me earlier had noticed that even though the blue flames had engulfed me too, I had not changed. There is nothing that I can do though, because I cannot speak or understand when other people speak, it is futile to try and solve the problem.

Others that were not close to me were doing a few things, some looked at themselves in shock, some tried to find there friends. While, in a few rare cases some where offended by the looks of the person they were talking to. There was even a couple that turned out to be both boys, it was very amusing, and I could not help myself from giggling a tiny bit.

After a few more seconds of confusion, my message board popped back up, and Kayaba started talking again "Right now, you are probably be wondering 'Why? Why would Akihiko Kayaba, developer of Sword Art Online and Nerve Gear do this? Ultimately, my goal was a simple one, the reason I created Sword Art Online, was to control the fate of a world of my design." 'I knew he was nuts!' I threw my hand up in the air in victory. 'knew it!' After a few more seconds he continued.

"As you can see, I have completed my goal. This marks the end of the tutorial, and the official launch of Sword Art Online. Players, I wish you the best of luck" I suddenly became completely submerged in my thoughts as Kayaba turned back into the red liquid and seeped back in between the tiles, and as the tiles disappeared. Then, I suddenly crept back into reality. 'I heard that there is a town close to here, soon all the monsters near here will all be gone, so it would be better to go to the next town and train there. I wonder if I could meet a friend there!' she thought, then started running.
