It's been a month since SAO announced that the players were trapped inside. May walked along the town street, seeing people selling items everywhere.

"Gosh.... They're going to need some of this stuff..." May said knowing what was to come.

Not too long ago she was a beta tester for SAO, only reaching floor eight. This wasn't a large number considering there were 100 floors. It seemed so long ago. And they were still on floor 1. From behind someone grabbed her sheath and tried ripping out her sword.

"Nice sword you got here.... How much you want for it?" The strange man asked.

"Not for sale." May snapped at him, ripping the sheath from his hand.

"Well, I could always just take it." He said to her, tugging on it.

May drop kicked the man and started running, turning a strap corner and getting against the wall.

"Everyone wants this sword...." She said taking a deep breath and sitting on the ground.

 

(ALRIGHT! I'm pretty proud of this one. LEZ DO THIS.)

Kaori decided that she needed to level up. She went over to a shop and waited in line. She saw plenty of people walking around, making groups. She bought a couple potions and headed out of town.

 

(Sorry if its too short )

I jumped when someone said my name -not Sioto, my in-game name, but my true name. I looked to the girl next to me, confused at how she knew that one piece of information. Does she know me from real life...? I don't recall any of my friends getting this game... I thought, sighing.

I looked to Yui's sheath, quickly checking it's size compared to my sword. It was a perfect fit.

"Alright, I'll buy it."

"Depends...sorry to ask this but what are your levels?" I asked then added, "I'm level 39." I whispered... It did feel weird to tell anyone your levels especially me because so far people have been using me. But when they did I only got stronger...so everything became harder for me. That plus that death trap got me a boost....

"I'm level 26." Haseo replied. He felt weak having a partner so strong... But he decided that he'd have to get stronger in order to catch up to him. He noticed some people hanging out around a store (Yui's store). "Think we could ask for new recruits over there?" Haseo asked Bliz.

"Sure the more the easier this will be." I said feeling sorry I asked him that question. I didn't like telling other players that I was higher leveled than them. But that was just how personality was when it came to friends....

CecRe's looked back at him. "Oh.Sorry.I'm a bit of a hacker~" She said with a smile.

"I never even bought the game~" She laughed a bit.

"You see I'm not rich and I pass all my classes without trying so in my spare time I have many things I do. Two being hacking and rpgs." She said and flashed her teeth.

Her teeth were sharpened like fangs. She turned herself back to the girl-Yu.

"Alright, let's go!" Haseo exclaimed, then walked over to the store. "Hey everyone. Anyone wanna party with me and my friend Bliz? We're gonna take on the floor boss!" He was excited to finally have a party. He'd asked people before, but they'd all rejected his offer. He was determined to win this game, and it seemed like the day that his plans would finally begin was today. He looked over at the girl that ran the store. "Oh, hey, do you have any good gear?" He asked out of curiosity. He'd never been to this store before, as far as he remembered.

"Ah! Thank you! Um...it's not that much...but I don't take care of price...someone else does..." Yukio explained, she was rather paranoid, why was everyone showing up at HER STORE?!

She then turned to the person asking about gear.

"Ah...yes. What are you exactly looking for?" she asked.

Yui didn't have a lot of stuff, and it was rather odd a 15 year old girl running a store by herself instead of fighting like she should be. Yukio couldn't just get everyone sorted out and go back to her boring life of selling things. Maybe these people would help her, maybe these people could let Yui out of this place and they could clear the levels together. This was completely over pressuring...

I looked at the girl that claimed to be a hacker.

Now, several things really tick me off- People who betray their friends, liars, and most certainly cheaters. I gave the girl a hating glance, before looking back to Yui. I grabbed an amount of coin from my pocket, placing it on her counter.

"Thanks for the sheath.." I muttered, turning away.

Kaori saw here level go from 27 to 28. "Yes!!" She jumped in the air. "Almost level thirty!" She walked back in town. She needed to make a group. 'Hmm... Who will wanna group with me?' She thought.

I tapped on Haseo's shoulder, "I'll be in the fields close to this area." I messaged him the area I would in by map and left. I might as well get some levels while I was at it... The outside of the town was a field full of low leveled creatures. I switched to my low leveled scythe and started killing all the creatures not getting much exp...

 "Hey everyone. Anyone wanna party with me and my friend Bliz? We're gonna take on the floor boss!" Crystal heard Haseo said. "I guess we're not the only ones, do you want to ask them to join?" She asked Sini. 

 

CecRe's sighed."It was just a joke..."She sighed again.

"Like I'd hack into a game that traps people." She laughed in a nasty way.

"However I knew this game trapped people. So hate me then!" She laughed again still in the same nasty way.

She calmed down and sighed."Just wait! I'll get out of this game and when I do I'll never have to be bored again." She grined like a crazy person.

I smiled at that, turning back to face this girl, "A joker, eh? Heh.." My smile broadened, glad to find someone with a sense of humor -albeit slightly twisted- in the dark time we 'lived' in. "Glad to see someone with a sense of humor. Say, it's been awhile since I've been out in the field...why don't you team up with me? You seem pretty strong- and  like teammates who have high morale."

I unsheathed my sword, placing it on my shoulder. "So, whaddya say?"

Xei training at the Floor 1 and he leveled up to 45."Okay,since i have strong enough,might as well take a break...."Xei said as he return to the town.While walking,people begin to notice him as Xei arrive."Isn't that.....Xeimizah,the Swordsman of Darkness?"one of the player said as the rumors are starting to spread through the whole town."I heard he wields the Sword of Rage,a Level 40 Weapon and it was really hard to get it.I wonder how he got that weapon?"One of the rumors has spread while Xei buy some items."Okay,since i have things that i need,might as well getting started to defeat the Boss.And besides,i'm alone is strong enough to fight against it...."Xei said as he begins to search the Boss in Floor 1 alone....

I woke up in our room in an inn.  It was mostly made out of wood and had a 'warm' feel to it.   I noticed I was the only one there though.  'Where did she ran off to this time..'  I said to myself.  I jumped out of my bed, and walked towards the door to go find her, when I bumped into her.  'Onii-San!! ' she yelled while she panic'd. 'Where were you Myra?!  I was worried sick about you..'   It was silent for a moment,, Untill she quickly yelled ' I wanna leave this town and move further in the game!'  

Her face turned red out of shame 'what was I thinking?! He will get mad at me for sure now!' she thought to herself. She started to apologize till I said 'Fine' .

 

'EEEH?!' she was surprised by my approval. 'We've been stuck in this town for too long now.  I didn't want to leave here because I didn't want to put you in any danger.  Since you're level 19 now,  and I'm level 27. I think it's time to move on. As long as you promise not to run off anymore. When we're in a higher level area it'll be more dangerous on your own.   Besides, I've already decided this a while ago.  I stopped the payment for this inn yesterday.  ' I said to her. 

She hugged me out of excitement when we started walking. 'I've heard some people have found the first boss area,  Let's see if I can lend a hand' i said as we started our journey.

I decided to explore again leaving the area I told Haseo I was going to be at. And found a tiny cave entrance covered by leaves.... I moved the leaves away and crawled in and I found a medium sized door... Obviously not the floor 1 boss probably a secret place with treasure. I opened the doors to find a empty room with a treasure chest and started to slowly walk towards it. Something suspicious was in this room I kept walking and the doors closed on me. I checked my teleportation crystal it didn't work....it was another death trap. I checked the ceiling to see if this was like the last one it was.... There was a gigantic spider on the ceiling....not like the last one but still on the ceiling. It was programmed to kill the player when they opened the chest...or 15 cm near it. I scrolled through my weapons and got out a beginners scythe... Then I threw it at the huge spider making it fall down. It had 3 health bars not as hard as the last one...

CecRe's smiled changed to a look of humor."Ohhh~ So now you want me to join~" She laughed.

"Though someone to help me might be nice." She agreed with the voice in her head.

"Okay,fine. I'll do it but frist I need to heal myself." CecRe's said.

I gave a look that was mocking one who would have been offended, "Hey, I have sense of humor too. I'm not some cold heartless killer. By the way, name's Sioto. You could've checked my idea, but hey, it's more formal this way." I said, rushing through things. My friends commented that I tended to rush ahead...getting into trouble as I did. I didn't mind, made things more interesting.

"Oh, and if you need to heal.." I pointed to Yui, "She's got potions."

Xei arrived at the Floor 1 just in time,and he saw couple of creatures charge towards to attack Xei."Did every creature on this floor can't wait to die fast?"Xei said as he kill the creatures one by one using his Sword of Rage.After couple of minutes that Xei manage to defeat almost 200 creatures,the Boss of Floor 1 appear in front of him."My,my.....aren't you the ferocious one?"Xei said as he begin to attack the Boss...

"Lets take our stuff and go now" I said while I was jumping to my bed. I took a few potions, food and some other stuff that could be handy in our journey. I slowly turned around and I saw that my brother was ready. "Do you have everything?" He asked. I looked in the direction of my bed. Nothing, just a normal empty bed..."Don't worry, I have everything!" A moment of silence... "I'm going to miss this place. It was like a new home". I said a little sad. "But I'm sure I want to go explore this world!" I was so excited. Noël began to laugh when he saw my bad battle pose. Then we left the inn. We said "Thank you for everything" and "Goodbye!" to the innkeeper. There were so many players on the street. I really liked it. It felt so alive. I took my bow and looked at it. I was thinking about the promise I made to my brother when we joined the game. I'll always have your back! And I was sure to keep that promise. I put my bow back on my back. "Hey Noël...I mean Frixcon, what do we do now?"

The Spider Queen it was called it had long legs and no face. Just a mouth full of blood, black hair, and a shreaded white cloth. It spewed webs at me I sliced them before they could reach me with my regular ice scythe. It charged at me I slid under it and attacked it from behind opening a bud that was the Spider Queen's back. Inside was a stem with 8 eyeballs attached to it, I started slashing the eyeballs. Taking half of the first bar of health down. It started closing and I jumped back attacking her legs. Getting rid of 3 of her legs she still walked perfectly fine, I then attacked the head slashing a 'x' on her non-existent face. It was already at her second health bar, I attacked her legs again. When she stabbed me with one of her sharp legs... She threw meonto the ground, I got up my health bar still green but she began combining me. I finally cut off 4 other legs my health bar now down to low yellow, It tried crawling away from me trying to stab me as I walked closer. But I just blocked it's attacks...

Haseo looked around at the others in the store. "Uhh... Anyone? ... Party? ... Boss?" These other two had decided to party up. He wondered how Bliz was doing... Would he be able to go train with him, considering he was over 10 levels above him? He didn't know...

I held my chest with one hand and blocked with the scythe with my other hand. It screeched at me as I got closer and chopped its last leg off... When I realized....that wasn't a normal screech....a bunch of large spiders started running down from the ceiling everywhere. There was like hundreds..., "So this really is a death trap..." I thought trying to kill them all as they carried their Queen away from me. I quickly scrolled through my weapons fending myself from spiders. Getting out a ice boomerange it was sharp on the side and was good in these cases. I threw it at the Spider Queen and killed more spiders the boomeranged killed spiders as it reached the Spider Queen.... My health bar still yellow....

"Wa–Wait? When did I become the one supplying everyone with potions?" Yukio complained.

She carefully pulled up her options, finding this boys name. Sioto and sending him a party request. Hey, she might as well get a party going.
