I can't believe Kayaba has the nerve to force us against our will back into SAO! I mean it's great and all that he will bring them back if we beat it but how many will die this time? But wait, the Batopsin was made so it couldn't kill anyone, so do we just have to clear it, will there be respawning this time?
Maybe I should go see Kirito and see what he thinks about it. He's probably going crazy over this like I am. Or not if he's already figured out that the Batopsin is completely safe. I'm overreacting. It's okay, I can't die this time, at least not to my knowledge. This will be just like logging into ALO. Right?
I decide to get up and head over to Kirito's place. He should be home, if not his sister would know where he's gone. Or they're both in ALO, which is also likely.
I arrive at their house and give the door a loud, hard knock. Sugu opens the door, looking a little teary-eyed, and said:
"If you are looking for Kazuto, he's upstairs." Then she leaned in closer and whispered into my ear, "Careful what you say." Be careful what I say? Why would she say something like that?
I slowly take the stairs up to Kirito's room. I slowly open the door, and I see his Amusphere on. I look in the Virtual Reality Game Console and see GGO inserted. Probably talking to Sinon. Her name sends something through me, anger? Sadness? Jealousy? I don't know. But all I can say is I hope he wakes up soon.
On his computer I see a webpage open. As I look closer I see a whole page on the Batopsin. And highlighted on his screen under the topic "Safety Hazards" are the words, " Warning! While not able to kill, if the safety is disabled and an extremely powerful signal is emitted from Batopsin, it is enough to cause; Permanent Mental Damage, Seizures, and in worst cases, Coma."

Okay, before I get mega questions. The title has a name in it, that is the POV (Point of view) that chapter will be from. And yes, Kirito's real name is Kazuto.
