It is time for the final chapter of my Sword Art Online fanfic. I know I just updated my last one yesterday but I had some free time so why not just finish it lol. This fanfic has gone over the 10,000 view mark in just a little over a month and that just blows my mind! But I want to see how the story will play out after it's all said and done. I really want reviews to start popping up like they have been and if I get enough; I will definitely make a sequel! :D Everyone knows about the Deviant Art request so I don't think I have to say that again lol. Remember that there is a poll on my profile that asks what I should write next so if you like my storys or writing, vote! Do it now! And finally, thank you for reading and here is the chapter!

Ch. 22

I sat at my laptop and stared at the page. It was the review that Mr. Harrison ordered me to write of the game and I think I just about got it finished. Sugu came in with a soda and sat down next to me. It was my favorite, Sprite. I smiled at her and gave her a hug.

"Thanks, Sugu."

She smiled from cheek to cheek and pecked my face.

"No problem. So are you done with the review you have to write?"

She asked.

"Well, I think I'm almost done. This is it, right here."

I said as I showed her the review of ALfheim. She smiled and sat back in her chair.

"I don't feel like reading right now. Read it to me, Thorn."

I sighed and began reading the words.

ALfheim Online. The Fantasy World that really comes to Life!

ALfheim Online is a game like no other. There are literally no other games that could compare to the smooth graphics and details of the game's backgrounds and overall monsters! The game brings you in to a world of fantasy that will blow your mind! There isn't really an object of the game, other than to have fun! However, if you must know, there is the main region of ALfheim which is known as the World Tree. Trust me; you'll know when you see it. Get to the top of the tree, and you just might get an awesome reward!

In ALfheim, you will be given the choice of nine fairy races: Cait Sith, Gnome, Imp, Leprechaun, Pooka, Salamander, Spriggan, Sylph, and Undine. Each race has a unique quality that only they can do when it comes to battle or just plain treasure hunting. You will be given an avatar of your own and then you can begin the game! Personally, I chose Spriggan. As soon as I appeared in my race's capital, I was amazed. Everything, from the street lights to the potion shops, seemed so real. I found myself just staring at my boots as I could feel the hard stone path beneath them.

If you look up, you will see the night sky of ALfheim. Trillions of stars roam the sky but the one thing you will notice is a ginormous floating castle. This castle is known as Aincrad. It is like another ALfheim but its objective is clear. There are 100 floors of Aincrad that you will challenge before beating the game and winning the grand prize! Each floor will have a dungeon where you will test your skills, find treasure chests, and update your game map. But what is at the end of the dungeon? I wasn't surprised to find a boss waiting for me at the end but what really surprised me was the pure magnitude of that boss's abilities. Unlike other games in the past, these bosses are definitely not a joke. They will give no mercy in killing you and making you have to fight it again. Which is why my first tip is: Always bring a friend or form a party when facing a boss. Having your friends fight by your side is the best feeling in the world, especially when you beat the difficult beast. But these floors don't just contain dungeons; they also contain major cities in which you can refill your health and purchase armor and weapons. Tired? There are hundreds of inns you can stay at for a cheap price. These inns hold bars where you can drink whatever you want! You may feel a little drunk but there is no drinking limit in ALfheim! Just don't underage drink in real life…..

Continuing on with the game, I found that the battle system is the one of the best things the game has. The feeling of your sword in your hand before a monster gives you a feeling of power and a sense of pure epicness! However, you may want to learn how to dodge before you get yourself killed. Getting hit will be like getting pinched or getting stung by a bee. It will hurt just like it would in real life, just not on the same levels. But this is what makes the game so realistic! If you have a problem with that, you can always buy a shield or pain-resistant potion. As for equipment, there are a variety of swords, hammers, katanas, bows, and rapiers that you can choose from. And there are many more weapon types from which you can wield! You will have the option to upgrade these weapons by going to a local blacksmith or forger. Now let's talk about armor. Let me just say, the armor looks totally badass. You can brag to your friends about your epic armor but don't get too cocky because they'll probably get some kickass armor as well! These armors come in all colors and tints. They may be heavy or light, depending on your preference.

Going in ALfheim can be a little nerve-racking at first. You probably won't have any friends yet and everyone knows no one likes a rookie. However, there are some people that are generous enough to help you and that is when you will meet some of the most interesting people ever! For me, it was a beautiful girl of blond hair. She taught me how to use my fairy wings and eventually showed me to her friends. I found that shyness doesn't really matter when everyone looks like a warrior! I am now in a group with them and they are my best friends so please don't be scared to meet new people in the game! As I said, she taught me how to use my fairy wings. This is another factor of the game that you won't believe! Using your fairy wings, you will able to travel through ALfheim at blinding speeds! You may race with a friend or just enjoy the cool breeze hitting your face. To use your wings, you must focus on imagining that you actually do have wings. They will soon appear if you try hard enough and you can go off from there. It will take some time to practice using your wings. but you will surely get the hang of it.

But that's not all that this game includes. Upon meeting people, you might just find the love of your life! The game does not allow you to change your gender so that won't be a problem if you know what I mean when it comes to dating. My blonde friend and I eventually got so connected that we kissed one day after a tough battle and it was the best feeling in the world. Everything will feel real, especially your love for that certain person. However, be careful because there are still some crazy people out there!

So, all and all, the game is the best game I have ever played. It is a Japanese game so you might just learn some Japanese while playing! ALfheim is a game like no other in how it displays and performs! I am certain that it will join the ranks of Mario, Legend of Zelda, and even Call of Duty! And finally, as soon as you're done reading this, go buy it! You won't even consider returning this masterpiece of a game. So that is why I am giving ALfheim online a gaming score of 5 stars/out of 5!

Sincerely,

Your Fellow Gamer,

Thorn Royer.

Sugu giggled at the way I talked and I joined her.

"Haha, wow. You sound like one of those fox news reporters when you're reading from a screen."

She said. I took a sip of my Sprite and pushed her off her seat playfully.

"Oh shut up, haha."

She stood up and stretched, acting like I never pushed her off the seat.

"So what do you have to do now, Thorn?"

She asked, sipping my Sprite.

"Not much really, all I have to do is send this sucker to Mr. Harrison."

I said as I sent the file to my boss. I immediately got a phone call after five minutes. It was Mr. Harrison. I breathed in deeply and answered the phone. I hope he likes my review.

"Hello?"

"Thorn! This review is awesome! You even got me into wanting to play the game now! I can't even believe that this is what the game sounds like. And what is that sound!? A sound of awesome, that's what!"

I laughed under my breath as he went on and on. Sugu stared at me with a look of hope. I guess she still thought that my boss wouldn't like the review or something.

"Well enough of my rambling! I am so glad I hired you. But now that the review is done, you know what else you have to do right?"

I thought for a minute and widened my eyes.

"Create a MMO myself, sir?"

"That's right! So get creating and I will keep sending that check! Keep up the good work, Thorn!"

"Thank you, sir. Good-bye."

"Good-bye."

We said as we hung up our phones. I turned to Sugu and tackled her, giving her a deep kiss. She gasped as I separated and gave me a face of shock.

"What!? What did he say!?"

"He said he loved the review!"

She grinned brightly and kissed me again.

"That's great, baby! So can we just relax now? I'm a little worn out from all of the stuff we have been doing in the past two weeks. I put my arm around her and smiled.

"Sure, babe. But my boss still wants me to do something else."

She looked at me and tilted her head.

"What?"

I smirked.

"He wants me to create and design a MMO of my own."

She smiled because she knew what I was going to say.

"Sooooooo?"

She asked.

"Sooooooo, do you maybe want to help me with it? And it couldn't hurt if Kazuto helped too."

She giggled and pecked my cheek.

"I'm so in! I actually kind of want to start making it now, hehe."

I sat up and looked at her.

"Really!?"

She stood up quickly and pumped her fist.

"Hell yeah!"

I smiled at her and gave her a hug.

"You know I love you right?"

I said, giving her neck butterfly kisses.

"Hehe, I know. I love you too."

She said with an apparent blush on her cheeks. I stopped kissing and sat down at my computer, turning it on.

"Well then, let's get started!"

And that is the end of the chapter and the story! Thanks again to all of the people who have given me ideas! You know who you are. I have had such a great time writing this story and purely believe that you readers will review so I can make that sequel. But I mean, if you don't want a sequel, I won't write one. But please review the story! I really want to see how I did with this story, it being my longest one and most successful one so far. About the poll, please vote on it and tell me what I should write next! If the vote doesn't change or something else beats it, Blue Exorcist is the leading vote right now. So that will be the story I write next, so check that out next week! Since this story is done, check out my other stories on my profile! I have written Naruto, Sword Art Online, and I'm still working on Attack on Titan. It's a lot like this story but it goes by the anime and has a girl OC instead of a male one. And finally, thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and I can now say that this is the end of Leafa's Thorn. If reviews come, check out the sequel when I write it! Thanks!
