"Link start!" Kazuto said happily. He was excited for another new RPG he was about to play. First of course came the character selection. Kirito was taken to a small space that seemed to be void of everything. In front of him showed a large screen it showed the title of the game. Ninja Storm Online was written in bright bold orange letters.

"Welcome to Ninja Storm Online." Said a voice. Kirito turned his eyes to the screen as a young girl appeared on the screen, she looked about 14-15 years old or so, but that wasn't his right to judge. The girl had long silver hair and gold eyes, she was wearing what seemed to be a school uniform consisting of a white petticoat, a brown skirt and loafers. White knee-high socks and a small red jewel was holding her coat together with brown strings. Kirito smiled. 'Aww, she looks so cute.' He thought for a moment, but then the image of Asuna chasing him with a knife made him stop that thought.

"My name is Tenshi. I will be your guide for the game, it's very nice to meet you Kirito." Tenshi said bowing to Kirito, but it was rather an automated sequence. Tenshi moved on. "Please select your avatar." Tenshi gestured to the screen on the right where a list of options for an avatar were shown. Kirito looked at the many options he could pick from, there was almost something so he could look like anyone in the world if he chose to. He decided to go with his usual appearance in games. Black hair and eyes, his own voice, a black outfit, in this case it consisted of a black coat similar to his coat in SAO, a black t-shirt underneath, black pants and boots. Kirito pressed confirm on his menu screen.

Tenshi bowed as Kirito's selection was complete. "Choose your clan." Tenshi gestured to many different clan names. Kirito assumed this was like the different types of fairies in Alfheim Online. Kirito scrolled down the list of clans until he found one clan that seemed cool to him, they wore black like he did, and their hair color and eyes were like him too. Of course Kirito didn't know anything about this game at all so he didn't know better. The description read.

Uchiha: One of the four noble clans of Konohagakure, reputed to be the village's strongest because of the Sharingan and natural battle prowess. Limited to 100 people choosing this clan.

Kirito looked his gasp as the counter increased by the second from 70, to 77, to 86, to 93, to 99. Kirito quickly clicked the icon for the clan selection and he sighed when Tenshi said. "Selected."

"Please choose your weapon." Tenshi gestured to a number of weapons. "Hmmm." Kirito scrolled down the list of weapons, all of them seemed interesting, there was a number of swords, there was the battle fan, there were modified kunai, there were fuma shurikens, but then again this was a game about ninjas. Kirito then saw a black sword. "Hmm..." The sword read Uchiha Katana. The description said.

Uchiha Katana: A weapon made for Uchiha clan members. This katana is able to be infused with lightning for powerful strikes, light and easy to wield.

Kirito saw that looked good to him so he selected it.

"Selected." Tenshi let Kirito to a door that was virtual. "Enter the world of Ninja Storm Online. I wish you the best of luck on your journey. Kirito Uchiha." Tenshi bowed and then the room turned white signaling the game had begun.

Kirito appeared on a field of grass, he looked around himself as several other players spawned in the field as well. He looked around, it seemed a little like Alfheim Online's design, only a little more pre-civilization. Kirito already noticed his health bar in the upper left hand corner of his vision, it was just like SAO, but he also noticed an odd looking blue bar below his health bar, he wondered what it meant. In ALO there was also Mana points, but under the blue bar it said 'Chakra.' It also showed his name and his rank, which currently read 'academy student,' which he didn't know what that meant anyways. Kirito decided the first thing he'd do is scroll down his good old menu. "Let's see." Kirito mumbled, all the things he knew were there.

Inventory/equipment: This is the default screen when opening the Menu interface. The left screen is an image of the body, with multiple points that allow the gamer to equip items or clothes.

Equipment: Selecting this sub-menu will open another three sub-menus: Weapons, Equipment and Accessory

Items: Selecting this sub-menu will open an additional scrolling screen on the left that lists all items.

Skills: Selecting this sub-menu will open additional scrolling screen on the left that lists all skills of the player.

Friends/Team: The friend list and team members.

Party: Selecting this sub-menu will open three additional options. The first is Create, the second is Invite, and the third is Dissolve.

Friend: Selecting this sub-menu will reveal a list of a player's friends. Selecting a single friend will produce three additional options: Message Box, Position Check, and Profile.

Communications: The icon flashes automatically whenever a player receives a message.

Befriend: This option allows the player to send a friend request to another player. The other player is added to the Friend List if the request is accepted.

Trade: This option opens a trade window with another player. Trading can be used just to show another player items, or complete a trade after both parties accept the offers put forth.

Marriage: This option, located at the very bottom of the Communications category, allows the player to send a marriage request to another player.

Under Maps/Quest:

Dungeon Map: Selecting this sub-menu will reveal a map of the dungeon that the player has explored.

Quest: Selecting this sub-menu will open the player's quest log, which displays information on current quests and their progress.

Field Map: Selecting this sub-menu will reveal a map of the current area that the player has explored.

Settings: Options, Help, Logout (Which Kirito was so happy to see that it hadn't vanished)

Kirito first looked under the skills menu. Though he was a little confused to see another menu pop up that said Jutsu.

Jutsu: The list of elemental techniques involving the main elemental that the player can use.

Kirito clicked on the jutsu sub-menu and a small list of what he assumed were techniques popped up.

Transformation Technique - Dog, Boar, Ram

Clone Jutsu - Ram, Snake, Tiger

Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu - Tiger, Ram, Monkey, Boar, Horse, Tiger

Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu - Rat, Tiger, Dog, Ox, Rabbit, Tiger

Kirito was now confused. 'What's with those animal names? Maybe I should ask for help?' Kirito scrolled down to his help menu. Suddenly out of nowhere around, Tenshi randomly appears out of Kirito's menu.

"Huh?" Kirito saw that Tenshi was now standing right in front of him and she wasn't a hologram. Or at least he had to try. Kirito held out his finger and pokes Tenshi in the chest. 'Hehe, that's soft...' Kirito smugly said and he knew Tenshi wasn't real so he didn't bother trying to hide his smug face. Tenshi looked at him with an expressionless face and then asked, "What do you require?" It was probably all programming that she would ask.

"What do these animals mean?" Kirito asked gesturing to the animal names on his jutsu menu.

Tenshi began explaining by first opening up a holographic panel. "One of Ninja Storm Online's main way of attack or defense is a wide assortment of ninjutsu. Which are techniques involving the five elemental natures. Fire, water, earth, lightning and wind, which are all strong against the previous one in a circle of elemental strengths and weaknesses. Ninjutsu is performed by weaving what is known as hand signs, which are named after animals. You can find a listing of hand signs by looking through your manual. I shall now perform a jutsu as an example."

Tenshi stood looking at the distant tree. "Fire Style, Fireball Jutsu." Tenshi weaved some hand signs and then breathed a fireball at the tree nearby burning it down instantly with the flames. "Will there be anything else?" Tenshi asked. Kirito was in shock, a game where he could breathe fire was like a level 10 game for him. He got excited that he didn't answer Tenshi for awhile. "Oh...sorry, I'm good."

Tenshi bowed before disappearing. Kirito looked through his manual that was in his inventory. "Let's see...Tiger, Ram, Monkey, Boar, Horse, Tiger." Kirito took about 10-15 minutes to memorize all the hand signs and then he closed the menu.

"Okay, here goes." Kirito made the hand signs slowly trying to remember them, when he was sure he called out. "Fire Style, Fireball Jutsu!" Kirito unleashes a fireball from his mouth at the rock nearby him which exploded. "YEAH!" Kirito yelled out. "Ugh..." Kirito's celebration is cut short when Asuna comes out from behind the rock. 'Oh shit!' Kirito panics. Asuna moans and rubs her head from getting nearby blown up. "Okay? Who did that?!" She looked around and saw Kirito in the distance. 'Of course...' Asuna slouches and then runs at Kirito full speed and then punches him right in the face knocking him into the tree behind him.

"Hey...oww..." Kirito moans as she rubs his head which collided with the tree, he noticed his health bar had gone down just a little and oddly, the blue bar had gone down too, by about 1/6 of the way, and it was slowly regenerating as well. He still wondered about the blue bar, but he needed to deal with Asuna first. Kirito chuckles as he rubs his head. "Uhh, sorry?" He said sheepishly.

Asuna was about to punch him again when she turned around. "Whatever." Kirito opened his menu and went to the befriend icon. He sends Asuna a friend request. Asuna after waiting for a moment accepts it. Kirito and Asuna both open the other's profile to see what the other had chosen as a profile.

After doing so, Kirito and Asuna are both greeted by Tenshi who appears as a hologram. "Attention all players." Tenshi then appeared all over for every player that logged on, which had reached a good 50,000 by now. "This is a message from the creator of this game, Toshihiro Bayahiki." Tenshi was then replaced with a screen showing Obito's face looking.

"Attention all players of Ninja Storm Online." Obito said sternly. "This is no longer a game. What I have is not a dream, but an ambition." Cue Pain's Theme... "There is no hope in this pathetic world, nothing goes the way it should. That's why I shall now build a new world, by first destroying yours." This got gasps from everywhere in the entire game. Somewhere else in the world, Silica, Lisbeth, Sinon, Klein, Agil and Leafa all were listening to this as well. Kirito stared angrily at the screen, he didn't think it would happen yet again. "From here on out, your world's destruction shall commence. In one year, there will no longer be a world for all of you to live in. For those who will take this as a joke, I do not lie, I can tell you that. For those who wish to log out, I highly recommend you don't, for when your world is destroyed, there will be no world to live in, which is why I'm offering to let you live here. The game shall transfer your consciousness into the system I created, if you do take this offer, you shall be spared from the world's destruction."

Kirito's eyes and ears couldn't believe what he was hearing. This guy wasn't trapping them in the game, but destroying the world? That's more than 100 times worse than trapping people in a game!

"However, I am not a man without mercy. For those who complete Ninja Storm Online, you and any 100 people you choose shall be spared from the world's destruction." What Obito then thought is, 'So you all can live, while the world is destroyed, watch in horror as everyone and everything is destroyed, and know the pain I know.' Obito thought and then spoke again. "That is all." Obito disappeared from the screen, Tenshi gave a bow and then disappeared.

Obito sitting in his office thought what he didn't say. 'While those who try and complete and game and those who choose to stay there to avoid the world's destruction mess around. My system shall collect their life energy, once I have enough, I shall unleash the full version of my infinite tsukuyomi on my world. And finally, finally, my plan will be complete. Soon Rin, soon. And the best part is, this time, Naruto Uzumaki cannot stop me!'

The more reviews, follows and favorites I get, the more convinced I am to continue writing this fanfic! If you have anything to say, say it.
