A target is painted on Sinon's back. And mine. What started as a simple bounty hunter job quickly turns into a violent feud against a rising force in GGO. But no matter how dire things get, I'll do whatever I can to support my partner, my friend, and maybe something more as we balance the danger lurking underneath the surface of GGO with a blossoming relationship. OC X Sinon.

He is moved forward leaps and bounds. Like being dragged by a fighter jet while riding a pogo stick. There's no control. No grace. And certainly no desire to continue. But he'll make it through the entire show, whether he wants to or not. (Kirito SI)

The tale of the Black Swordsman, a mischievous Rat, and the water Shinobi; before they were renowned by those names by both sides of the coin before they were faced with a monumental task, they were just Beta Testers, misfits. The story of Kirito, Argo, and Nagi began long before the Death Game and the memories throughout Aincrad.

Sword Art Online is over. The floating steel castle of Aincrad has disappeared, and with it, all the blood, sweat, tears, and joy that Karma has known for the last two years. Everything should be better now that she's back where they say she's supposed to be, in the real world. Right? (Sequel to Retribution)

Making games was hard. SAUER knew that. But it was especially hard for an Australian to get recognition in Japan, while working for an American-founded company. Once he had done it, though, he would prepare to connect with a large quantity of his new fellows at once - only to find that he would be spending a lot more time with them than he initially had in mind.

Kirito expected many things when he launched the official copy of SAO, getting stuck in a death game where few things were as they seem, and in the body of his sister no less. Was not one of them, so now they have to figure out what is going on, and how to survive. However that is much easier said then done when many things have shifted and changed from what they once were.

Three months after Llenn, Fukaziroh, Jaymes, and Kureha claimed victory over Pitohui and M and won Squad Jam 2, the third Squad Jam commences! This time, the six players form one team. However, Squad Jam 3 comes with a mysterious new rule that is set to shake the battlefield and change the game. And the darkest part of Jaymes's past comes back to haunt him.

Having cleared Sword Art Online and freed all the trapped players from the game of death, Kirito is convinced that he is the best fighter that ever existed. His triumph has really inflated his ego - although Asuna is convinced there is a weapon out there which is easily capable of beating the Black Swordsman. What could such a weapon be - if it even exists?

Kazuto wanted answers... why did this happen? why do they exist and prey on us? Tell me child, are you content living in a birdcage? and that alone sparked interest in him

Kirito, Asuna, Jaymes, and Koharu continue their progression up the lower levels of Aincrad and embark on the Elf War Campaign with their new friend Kizmel. Up ahead lies three new levels, more fighting between the DKB and ALS, a new party member from Asuna's past, a dangerous enemy of the elves, and a rising of players that seek to make death part of the game.

Complete summary in the first chapter, but in short, the story parallels the War of Underworld anime, here, you will see how Kirito and Alice could have been given the romance I wanted them to enjoy, but without changing the general structure of the original story. I hope I can provide as much emotional depth as possible and show the beauty of AlicexKirito.

Sinon had faced many horrors in her time in Gun Gale Online: slavers, raiders, mutants, blood machines, and transhuman warriors. But turning into a cat was a new one. Why does she continue playing this stupid game? It also didn't help that Kirito kept scratching her ears. (KiriSinon)

Early in the 22nd century, a girl stumbles upon the long-forgotten world of Gun Gale Online and decides to try it out to pass the time. To her surprise, she finds more in the game than she ever bargained for: friendships with AIs, cut-throat tournaments, endless adrenaline... and a new identity as one of the SBC Glocken's premier snipers, a hawk-eyed sharpshooter named Sinon.

Follow Arata on a journey of swords and scythes as he masters a distinct playstyle that will allow him to carve a unique path through this game of life and death.

Ever tried to complete an entire game as a criminal? The extra challenge of skirting civilization and society can be refreshing. But Valerie Kurokaze may want to reconsider trying it in the VRMMORPG she has chosen to play - her life depends on that decision.

Oneshot collection of the "Journey of the Hollow Instructor" series. This is for all the small adventures, which aren't important enough to make it into the main story but shouldn't be left untold either. From characters bonding away from the big stage to funny little (mis)adventures... This is where those stories are told.

After completing the 75th floor, you continue your journey on completing SAO by reaching the 100th floor. However things are about to change when a few new allies join the team along with a new strange area opening up as you get mysteriously transported there by an unkown source. The world of SAO was changing and it was just beginning. Can you protect everyone and get to floor 100?

After the brutal 25th Floor Boss Raid, Asuna has left Kirito's side to join the Knights of Blood. With his partner gone, Kirito resigns himself to returning to the life of a solo player-until a familiar face from the lower floors unexpectedly reenters his life. The strangely-human NPC Kizmel, despite her quest being over, has returned to his side... Kirito/Kizmel.

By sheer luck, a man from North America manages to get ahold of a Nerve gear and enters SAO. just how will he proceed when he does not speak the language and chooses the most unconventional of playstyles?

"You know, Onii-chan, I had another dream last night. In my dream, there was a floating castle in the sky..." In which Akihiko Kayaba's dream was not his own, and the Death Game was instigated by a monster born out of that dream.

One: Happy Birthday Llenn. Set just after the Gun Gale Online anime. Elsa finds out it's Karen's birthday...

Sword Art Online was a breakthrough in the world of gaming and Kirigaya Kazuto couldn't wait for the release. On the first day, the world of Aincrad became a prison for 10000 players. Death in-game meant death in reality. But have you thought how things would go if, in addition to his new friends, Kirito met two oddly familiar people? Will they survive and end the death game or...?

Death was over in mere seconds, granting only time to smile and hope a message would be read. So when Sachi awoke to find she was alive as an AI, the first instance of a Human becoming such, she was surprised. When she found she was still in SAO and had to work for Kayaba or risk deletion, well, it was time to see how well she could Masquerade as a God in the Machine!

Kirito's sister made an account on his Headset and then a bug happened making him play SAO in a female avatar.

A few days after his birthday, Kazuto Kirigaya started seeing floating screens above people’s heads. It didn’t take long until he was given Quests and began leveling up his Skills.
