Chapter 1

Harkor/Terrence Burkes POV

I sat there and looked at my NerveGear screen, I had yet to turn on the system, and was still looking at the blank screen. It had been a few hours since I purchased the game its self, the much awaited SAO. I smiled at the memories that I had made as a Beta tester on the game with my friend, Dylan. We were at our respective houses when we got the emails, we just happened to pick up the phone at the same time to gloat like the gamer nerds we are, and found out that we got the offer at the same time. It was all kinda funny really, after a few minutes of laughing and making jokes we decided to enter the game as a team and give our reviews at the same time.

Atleast that was the original plan as it turns out we got to floor sixteen before giving a small review on the game play that we had seen so far. As it turns out we can give a pretty good one and were contacted by the company to turn in more. It was, I think, two weeks before the official release of the game when we stopped playing and talked a strategy for when it came out. we spent the whole two months before we came to an acceptable strategy. We would keep it simple: Log in and meet up at one of the towns exits, then start farming EXP, items, and Col. Simple and easy, but also elegant.

Yet here I lay looking at a blank screen, why? Nerves? Anxiety? To be honest I'm not sure, it was a bad feeling I guess, just something gnawing at my stomach. I breathed in deep to calm my nerves, then, feeling more determined, turned on my head set. The screen lit up, and I watched as the clock ticked away. After one more deep breath, I said in a soft, quiet voice the words that would begin my greatest journey ever.

"Link Start."

POV Switch: RJ/Dylan Wilson

I had just arrived home, and sitting there, like a herald of the joy to come, was my copy of Sword Art Online, delivered by my pal slash roommate, Terry, no doubt. I reached up and flicked an offending strand of my mid-length hair away from my eyes as I eyed the box. The dark-brown locks had gotten to be a bit offending lately and called for a haircut. For now though, I plopped myself down on the counter to enjoy a bottle of water.

The thing about going to school in Japan was that Track was not only a club, but apparently also a social status. Every day in Gym I found myself racing my classmates and really it had gotten to be a bit old. Sure, I was team captain of the Cross Country team but that didn't mean I wanted to race everyone under the sun! However, with my powerful, yet lean, leg muscles the races were rarely even a real effort.
