Standing in front of them while the gruffer one smiled to us "hey there, I'm Klein and this is..." for him to point to the shorter player, so he could introduce himself only for him to look away and say "I'm Kirito."
Smiling, to them "I'm Ishtar and this my friend Sachi along with her friends Keita, Tetsuo, Sasamaru, and Ducker."
Klein: "So, what brought you all out to the field? are guys going out to some quest?"
Shaking my head while I both hand behind my head as I lean back a little "no, I'm sure were here to the same thing that Kirito and is doing with you for Sachi want me to help teach them..." stopping when I let playful smirk grace my lip as I peak at Kirito to see him tens at my smirk "sense I'm a closed beta tester they wanted me to teach them some things."
Kirito: Shaking my head "fine.... hey Ishtar... it been a while.... for I still see that you're still as playful and aloof as ever."
Upon hearing what he said the others look around at each other with surprise and confusion in their eyes only to stop when they look me to try to understand what's going on, only for me to shrug my shoulders. "Me and Kirito were closed beta testers that had happen before the open did, and me up on one of the higher floors that any beta tester could make to for I think that was...ten, right? Kirito."
Kirito: Putting a hand on my hip sighing "yea, we met on floor ten... any ways aren't you here to train your friends... shouldn't we get to it, it's getting kind of late."
With him saying he walks off making Klein only smirk and following behind, leaving us behind while they just look at me speechless only to see me smiling at them before following after them.
(30 minutes later)
Just as the sun was setting "I think that's enough for today... let call it for now and we can pick up where we left off when we login tomorrow." Hearing that they could finally take a break everyone collapses to the ground with their weapon resting at the side of them besides me and Kirito who just look at each other shaking our heads. When Klein says "ahh! I can't wait to log off and eat my pizza after this... MAN! I'm hungry!"
For only us to hear someone stomach rumble when he finished cause us to turn to see who's it was for our eyes to land on Sachi who was blushing and hanging her head in embarrassment, causing Kieta to giggle before saying "yea we're all kind of hungry."
I open the menu to see what time it was to see that it's just about after dinner time before saying "so what time does everyone want to meet up if Kirito agrees to that is" which had him look away being that he knew I wouldn't let him get away for free. Which had Klein dry laugh before saying "if everyone can't make it, that's fine were all on each other friend so it cool. Let's just play it by ear for now doesn't has to be anything official."
Seeing everyone nod I scroll down clicking one of the panels to get to the logout section only to stop when I don't see it, thinking it's a bug I close the menu and open a again but still not seeing it I a cold chill run down my spine only to hear Klein let out a confused sound. Looking at him, he looks up to us and says "g-guys I can't find the logout button..."
Kirito: Hearing this I say "it should right at the bottom of the..." as I had opened my menu to make sure I stopped what I was saying when I saw it wasn't there.
Seeing Kirito react almost the same I for only Sachi to walk over to me with a worried expression on her face telling me she couldn't find it either causing me to look at their seeing that they wear the same expression, I turn to look Kirito having our eyes make contact with the same realization going through them.
Klein: Sensing the increasing nervous ness and tension in the air "ha-ha... I mean... what... it's only the first day? the beta ended? we should expect there to be some bugs right... why see if we can connect to the GM?
With him looking to me and Kirito for we were beta testers and that he was right about going on being that he hopes something like this happen in the beta, I can only shake my head "no... if the logout button is not there... it can cost major changes not only in the game but also... us the player as well... plus I've already been trying to reach them."
After hearing what I said Sachi moves closer to me tugging on the hem of my sleeve for I could see the tears threating to leave her eyes but before I could comfort her a bell start to ring causing us to cover our ears, when white lights start to appear around us cause the other to panic as me and Kirito knew what was happening.
(Town of beginings, town center)
Opening, my eyes to see that we were in the town center to that it seems all the player that had login to the which is 10,000 players were forced teleported here, for I could hear all of the confused buzzing going around. Turning my head I found Sachi standing next to me with Kirito to me left while the others were looking around confused and scared.
Seeing Klein next to Kirito as he had a confused look in eyes at seeing all the player here "w-what's... going on..." only for the sky to turn red as if answering his question, which had all of us look up to the sky to see a figure in a red hood appeared startling everyone.
Unkown entity: "Welcome players, to my world... that I have created for my name is known as Akihiko Kayaba, from now on I am in control of this. Also, I am sure that you all have notice that a button has been removed from your main menu. Wanting to let you all know this isn't a defect with being how sword art online was meant to be, you will not be able to log yourself out nor will people in the outside world be able to remove the NvG from your head.
If done so the NvG will send electro shocks to your brains of any of the players that family that tries to remove the NvG, ending their lives. "
Turning my head to look at the others to see that none of them can believe what their hearing, when a few other players started to whisper their own disbelief, I feel Sachi grab my hand making me look to her having me see the fear, confusion, and the need know that this isn't real causing me to tighten me holding her hand as I smile to her. To hear Klein speak in disbelief "g-guys... he... he can't be for... real... right?..." Before looking around to all of us with fear in eyes.
Kirito: Biting my lower lip... "no... he's... not if the nerve gear is removed by force or if the safety is disabled the can send out microwave signals to your brain."
Unkown entity: "Un-fortunately some players family members and friends have done causing a lost in 213 players from the game, then when we had started. Also, I want to make it clear that if your Hp hit zero in the game you will also die in the real world being that there is no longer any way to revive a player once their life bar hit zero."
