Welcome to the prologue for part II. In this prologue, the introduction to ALO, and to part II. Here we go, and I do not own anything.
This introduction is in Llyod's point of view
(12 hours after Francis fell unconscious- Francis still unconscious)
Time: 9AM (Tuesday)
Location: Los Angeles, CA- Team Base
Team Star Shine has just woken up the next day after Francis fell unconscious, and Luna, Colette, Jennifer Talavera, and an unknown character was taken from the base. Llyod wakes up to find that Francis is still unconscious as part II of the series begins.
(Llyod's turn)
It is the the morning after the team won the Crescent Cup, and 12 hours after Francis the Snivy fell unconscious trying to save Colette. I was just introduced to everyone in the team, and its amazing how many members there are here. Francis, who fainted last night happens to be the team leader, and captain of the team. I wonder what happened over night, so Leafa decided to check out the news. Good thing she did because we got to find out more.
Newscaster: Good Morning Los Angeles, it is 9AM on this Tuesday morning. Top story of the day is "ALO Takeover". The newest game craze is here, and a lot of people are diving into virtual reality. You get to play as a Sylph, and be that character. We took our first run, and rated it a 10 out of 10.
Newscaster 2: Sorry to break up the fun, but breaking news just into the news room. Gamers Sky News has just learned that four people were knocked unconscious, and taken away to Fresno, CA, and whats more is what is in this screenshot. This was taken in the ALO game. It shows a picture of four individuals. It appears to be Luna, Jennifer Talavera, Colette, and an unidentified victim. All sources point to Kuja as the main suspect, and the victims are all from team Star Shine, winners of Monday's Crescent Cup. If we have more details, we will bring it to you live…
(Llyod's turn)
After listening to the news, we learned that Colette, Luna (Francis the Snivy's human girlfriend), Jennifer Talavera (Leo's girlfriend/Francis the Snivy's human friend), and an unidentified victim are trapped in ALO. In order to rescue them, we have to buy the game, and get inside it. The team decides to go to the local game store to buy the NerveGear, and the game.
Local Game Stop Store
We arrived at the local Game Stop store to buy the NerveGear, and the game. The line is out the door for the game making A.L.O one of the hot games this week. We got our chance to buy the game, and the hardware 30 minutes later for about 250,000 U.S dollars. This was enough for everyone including the unconscious hero. We headed back to the base to get ready to play the game.
Team Base
We have returned back at the team base ready to begin the game, and a brand new adventure. We looked inside the NerveGear for directions.
Welcome to NerveGear Gaming. In the NerveGear, you get to be in a game where you want to be in. To start playing, charge the NerveGear to at least 90 to 100 percent. After charging, put the game you want to play in the slot for the game, and then make sure that you close the slot. After putting the game in, put the NerveGear on like a helmet. Then make sure that you can preform the tasks below:
1)Touch- Touch yourself
2)Smell
3)Taste
4)Hearing
These senses will impact your avatar, and how you play in the game. Once you test these senses, you will hear 7 beeps. Once you are ready to play the game, make sure you close your eyes, and say "Link Start!", and the NerveGear will transport you to the world of the game with a created avatar based on your real world body, senses, and the game you are playing. Once you decide to log out for the day, you will wake up back in the real world.
We thank you for trying out virtual reality using the NerveGear. We hope you enjoy the virtual world.
-NerveGear team
After reading the directions, we started charging the NerveGear to get ready for the adventure. 20 minutes later, the NerveGear is charged, and its all ready, but before we got to play, I made a letter to our unconscious hero making sure when he wakes up, he will know that we are playing ALO and not unconscious. Here is what I wrote:
To Francis the Snivy, our unconscious hero
When you wake up, you will notice that we will have helmets on. That is the NerveGear which is on your right. Use that to join us. As far as what happened when you were unconscious, Kuja has kidnapped Luna, Colette, Jennifer Talavera, and an unknown victim, and they are trapped in the game. Please help us save our friends, especially your human girlfriend.
Sincerely, your new friend, Llyod
These innocent victims never deserved to die. Thats what I taught to myself. It is time to save my girlfriend, Colette. It is time to 'Link Start'. We grabbed the game, put it in, put on the NerveGear, and we gathered near our unconscious hero. We held hands and we did a team cheer, including the mentions of our unconscious hero.
"Gide us on our mission to rescue our friends. Protect us and help the hero regain consciousness. We ask this to Martel who shall protect us" I said as the team lied down, and close their eyes.
We hear the beeping happen in our NerveGears, signaling us that it is almost time for an adventure. I taught about Francis who saved Colette from certain death, and also about Luna, who is always saved by Francis. I will not let Kuja hurt them again.
"LINK START!" Everyone playing yelled
The screen went into a dream state mode, and mentioned our senses. Mine were all ok.

Our team has arrived inside Alfhiem Online, and the town of Sylvain. From standing where we were, the town is huge. There are many shops around, and a lot of people as well. They were also Sylph fairies, but they all welcomed us, even our Spriggan teammates. Thats amazing to see. One of the Sylphs came up to us, and offered us a tour of Sylvain.
"Hello team Star Shine. I am a Sylph Guide. I am here to guide you around the town. Would you all like one?
"Yes please" Everyone said as the guide started walking us.
