Disclaimer: Own nothing
I walked to the infirmary and say my team there ready to enter the game. I headed to one of the beds and laid down placing the Nerve Gear on my head.
"Everyone ready" I said
"Yea"
"Affirmative"
"Good then let's head in. Remember Kanji keep our bodies safe and see if you can work on those blue prints I gave you"
"I won't let you down sir" receiving a salute from him.
I smiled
"Link start"
My vision turns black at first. The an array of colors flash at me. A message pops up

Welcome to sword art online
I open my eyes. I look around my surroundings. Tall trees and a flat plain in front of me. I could see the town up ahead.
"Good the spawn point I set for us worked. Now just gotta wait for them" I said
I turned around and could see them materialize in.
"Good we're all here now" I said
"Yes we are now mind going into more detail of what our mission is" Grim said
"Like I said were here mostly to protect the players from any of the orders members or other PK'ers and help out a bit in the boss battles."
"So become PKK'ers" Reaper said
"Something like that but yea" I said
"Um I'm lost were becoming what" Scout said
Both grim and I look at her with a confused look on our face.
"You've never played an MMO or RPG at all" grim asked
"I'm a girl what'd yea expect. I'm not into games like you guys" she said
"Did you at least read the manual on how to play the game" I said
"Yes I read the manual. I just don't understand what a PK or PKK means" she said
"Well at least you know how to play. A PK'er is a player killer. A player who's killed another player. With the new rule in place a player killing is basically murder. A PKK'er is a player killer, killer. They only kill player killers and nothing else. It's still murder but at least they aren't killing innocent people." Grim explained
"Okay I get it now"
"Good any-"
"Hang on I have a question." Scout asked
"What is it now" I said getting a little frustrated
"Well for one why didn't we spawn in the town and another why do we look like our real bodies. Won't it make it easier to have changed the way we look so that they won't notice us." She asked
"When they hacked into the system I only had a limited time to mess with our characters in the game. I knew somewhat that I'd be entering the game with others so I made a quick character for each of us but since we didn't edit them they took our forms of our real bodies" I explained
"Well that makes sense sort of" she said
"Anyways like I was saying since we were able to spawn in the coordinates I placed that means that some if the other things I put into this game might of worked."
I opened my menu and found what I was looking for.
"Yup I was right. Open your menus and your equipment should be in there along with a mask. Our equipment was made specifically for us just in case something like this were to happen. It was made so that we won't have to worry about getting better equipment. It will level up with you so the states will keep increasing. Now the mask is there to keep our identities a secret." I finished explaining as I equipped my own gear.
I was now wearing a dark blue chainmail looking long sleeved hoodie with light armor chest piece and lightly armored legs. I had black leather boots and gloves. I had two long swords without their cross-guards on my back.
I looked at the two of them as they equipped their own armor. Grim was now wearing a long black coat that was armored on his shoulder, chest, and legs. Grim also carried a big scythe in his right hand. He looked like the grim reaper with light armor on. Kyudo was wearing a dark green hoodie with black pants. She had light armor on her shoulder, chest and legs. She wore brown leather boots and gloves. She had a bow and quiver of arrows attached to her back.
"This is basically the same equipment we use in the real world." I said
"Well as long as I got this puppy I should be fine" Reaper said as he twirled his scythe around his hand like an expert.
"Yea this bow is great. I like it" Scout said pulling it of her back as she tested the bow out.
"Good I if you guys are ready open you menu again pick skills and put on your masks. It's time to get to business. We can't protect the players if we're at level one" I said as I took out my mask and placed it on my face and placed my hood on. My mask was simple two eye holes and a one red line that went around the mask outlining it. Scout and Reaper both placed there's on. Reapers was a beat up skull looking. Scouts was simple with one line coming down the middle and the other citing across. We headed out into the fields to level and get ready for the soon to come battles we may face.
"And... done" I said as I slashed downward in my "ice pick" style if fighting killing the last Nepent.
"Finally finished. That only took us... The whole day" I said looking up at the sky seeing the sun go down.
"Well we would have finished faster if someone people would've told me not to shot the one with the fruit" Scout said bitterly
"Well we did get some dissent levels after you activated that trap. No crying over spilled milk right" Grim said
"No crying over spilled milk we could have died had it not been for Shadow coming up with a quick plan" she yelled back
"It's not like those dumb plant things could've killed us. We've fought worse and stronger things. Am I right boss"
I was busy thinking to here Grim calling me.
"It's strange Kayaba should have made his speech already" I thought
"Maybe it's taking longer than he thought then to break through the security they put up" Blake said manifesting himself next to me in a black cloak hiding his face from me.
"Maybe but he should have finished by now." I thought a bit worried
"Ah I see. Your worried about your sister not so much on Kayaba. Without the players knowing of the danger if dying your sister could die and not know about the new rule"
"I guess you figured it out"
"Don't worry about her so I'm sure she's fine. She's strong I'm sure she'll be okay and besides she's said she was playing with her friends Kazuto and the others. And plus Kazutos an excellent fighter you saw so yourself. He'd make a great challenge for you."
"I guess your right but I hate fighting remember. Fighting for enjoyment and fighting to protect are two different things."
"Whatever you say. I'll stop talking now I think your friends out there are trying to talk to you" and with that he vanished from my sight. I regained my senses as I heard Grim calling my name.
"Boss, yo boss. You who boss you alive behind that mask" grim said snapping his fingers in front of me
"What" I said
"Oh so you are alive it's hard to tell with that mask blocking your face. Anyways what were you thinking about" he said
I look at him " nothing don't worry about it lets just head back to the main town." As soon as I said we all heard bells ring in the distance.
"I take it Kayaba's about to make his speech" Grim said
"Take off your masks and equipment and put on the starter one. Just put on a cloak so nobody will see us. We're going to be forced teleported back to the starting town and I don't want to attract attention" I said
We quickly switched our gear and we were teleported back to the main town. I looked around. We were in the center of the town. Many people were still being teleported in.
A warning sign appeared all over the sky. Then blood red liquid started to come out of the sky.
"Yea like that's not creepy at all" I heard grim say.
A giant red clocked figure is formed in the sky. His face hidden from us.
"Greetings players. I am Kayaba Ahikio. I am the one who controls this world"
"Now some of you may have noticed the log out button is missing. This is not a bug but a feature in the game. Once you die in the game you die I'm real life too. No respawn no second life."
"What the hell you talking about let us out"
"Yea I need to be at a meeting"
"Fucking asshole just fix this thing and let us go"
Is what I heard from the crowed
"Once you die the transmitter in the Nerve gear will send a microwaves to the brain destroying it. The same goes if someone from the outside try's to remove the helmet... Unfortunately many people have ignored this and now 213 players are now dead" he said pulling up many news reports.
The crowed of players were quiet now. I think they get the message now.
"Do not worry your body's are being moved to your local hospital. So you have no worry of someone removing you from the game. As of now there is only one way to escape and that's to beat all 100 floors of the game."
The crowed started to shout again.
"Beat the game your crazy"
"It can't be done the beta players only made it to floor 8"
"Asshole just let us leave"
"Before I leave I have sent a gift to all you players please check your inventory"
The three of us didn't revive anything since Kayaba new about us. I looked around as I saw many players take out a hand mirror. Bright flashes of light were seen everywhere. I looked around again. No longer was there big tall buff men or beautiful women now there was many teenage boys and men and the ratio of boy and girls drastically changed. As I scanned the crowed again I was hoping to find Sarah somewhere. I found here and the rest of her friends together. Good at least she's with her friends she should be safe.
"This concludes the tutorial I wish you luck"
And with that he disappears. The crowed now quiet. I could see Kazuto drag the girls and surprisingly Andrew and some other red headed man with him out of the center.
"Once the crowd panics try your best to stop as many people from commuting suicide. Stay hidden from the enemy at all cost though meet me in the next village in a month. I need to do some business first understand" I whispered to them
"Um.. Okay but mind filling us in on what you're going to be doing." Scout asked
"I have to fin-" before I could finish I the crowd started to panic and people started pushing and running over people.
"You have your orders. See you in a month" I said as I left trying to catch up with Kazuto as he dragged his group to safety.
Alright so the real game starts now and so does my mission to keep her safe. I have to make sure Sarah's going to be safe with them.
Again sorry for it being short I'll try and make the next one longer.
