Hatsumi - er - Rey nodded at what he had told her. It was nice to have someone by her side at that moment. If she didn't, she wouldn't know what to do. Well, she would have probably ran around out in the wilds, recklessly killing everything to get more experience to become more powerful. Rey would probably get herself killed. Yeah.

She smiled as she received yet another pat on the back from him. It was also nice to see that he seemed to relate to her. Especially with how she felt just moments before, with the whole announcement about not being able to escape unless they had beaten all 100 floors. She gave out a sigh. Taking in all of this news was kind of exhausting.

Then Lao'Jax had suggested that the two join up because it would make it faster to beat the game. Rey couldn't be anymore happier. "Right!"

Soon enough, a window had appeared.

Lao'Jax added you as a Friend.

o x

Right away, the female had accepted by pressing on the blue button that had a white circle in it. And then another window had appeared.

Lao'Jax invites you to join his party.

o x

She did the same thing as before, pressing on the same button.

After doing those actions, the young woman looked over to the upper left side of her vision. She saw her own name and Lao'Jax's just below hers. She grinned.

Awesome.

She soon noticed him. . .frowning? Tilting her head, she raised an eyebrow and questioned him. "Is there something bothering you?"

Aghhh. I can't get enough if Angie's Boom Chicka Pop Sweet & Salty Kettlecorn.
Someone needs to take all these bags away from me before I devour them all.

SAO: Living in Aincrad

No need to worry. I'm eating right now. x3

SAO: Living in Aincrad

Tired?

@Caits

Yeah. I decided to wake up early so that I could do my Media Arts HW. XD

That and I haven't eaten yet and it's already 2PM. But who needs food

. . .I'll probably eat now. o.o

SAO: Living in Aincrad

Ughh. I may knock out soon. x_x

@LokiLeo789

That's fine. I'm doing my homework right now. Too much drawing. x_x

Oh and I forgot to tag you, too. I knew I forgot something. Damnit.

Upon feeling a pat on her shoulder, Hatsumi gave a squeak and jumped a bit at the sudden contact given to her by another. Slowly turning around, she noticed that the person who had touched her was a man who was probably in his early 20s. Releasing a sigh at hearing what he had to say to her, she had to agree with him. Yelling at Akihiko wouldn't make their situation any better. It wouldn't do a damn thing.

I really should calm down. . .

She felt her face flush and she soon gave him a small smile. "He-he. . .sorry about that. I guess I got into the heat of the moment after what Akihiko told us all."

"I just. . .don't like it when people's lives are threatened, when people have to die at such a young age, and when people forcefully control how others die," she sheepishly rubbed the back of her head in slight embarrassment.

She usually never lost her cool, but in situations like this, she just explodes. Which was why she never really left home. There were many crazy people out in the real world. She was afraid she'd get attacked like many of the people she had seen on the news.

Regaining her composure, she reached a hand out towards him and introduced herself with a bigger grin than she had before. "Before I forget, I'm Rey-!"

. . .I really hope I can see Hana again. I want to thank her for everything after Mom and Dad died.

Late, on November 5th, Hatsumi got the game plus the NerveGear as a gift from her elder sister. She had always been pestering her about it, and on the day of the sales - Hana waited in line ever since November 2nd - she bought them. Hatsumi had cheered loudly and embraced her sister in a tight bear hug. Since she had graduated from high school a few months before, she was practically dying to get the game and play it. Her sister helped her with setting it up in her room just moments after giving it to her.

November 6th. It was the day. . .

"I'm going to go play now, sis!"

The female ran all the way up to her room in excitement. She was finally going to play-! It was 12:58, so she decided to take off her glasses, put on her NerveGear and lay down in bed in a comfortable position because she knew she'd be exploring for awhile.

One minute had ticked by and it was 12:59. She closed her eyes, took in a big breath of air and exhaled. You've got this, 'sumi.

Another minute and it was 13:00. Her eyes snapped back open, and. . .

"Link Start!"

She quickly made her avatar. Her height and weight was the same, but she changed her appearance a bit. She changed the color of her hair to black, her eyes stayed hazel brown, and she made her skin a tone or two lower.

Once finished, she found herself in 'The Town of Beginnings'. What a nice name for the town.

Moments after arriving, she had received some free things as she roamed around town. A free guidebook and a potion. She left the town and ran into several Frenzy Boar. After she read parts of the guidebook, she thought it was best to try and level up. Using her beginner's rapier, Hatsumi slowly but surely defeated the Frenzy Boar and got some of their meat in drops.

As she reached level 3, and realized it was time to head back into town since it was already 5:30. Time really goes by when you're having fun.

By the time she made it back to the Town of Beginnings, it was close to 6:00. Hana would probably kill her if she stayed any longer in the virtual world. Standing in the square with many people arouns her, she opened up her menu, and looked for the 'Log Out' button. Only. . .there was no button.

There was a blinding light and soon, the creator of Sword Art Online himself had appeared to explain why there was no Log Out button.

. . ..

No escape?

You die in real life if you die here?

Beat all 100 floors?

It was. . .insane.

When they were told about the gifts in their inventories, everyone opened up theirs and pulled out mirrors. Looking at her own reflection, she realized that her appearance looked like hers in real life.

Around her, she heard the people panicking. Anger bubbled up inside her. Akihiko Kayaba. . .he trapped them in here. Grinding her teeth together, she soon found herself yelling aloud, "DAMN YOU! HOW DARE YOU TOY WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES LIKE THIS!"

She didn't care what people thought of her. She wanted to give him a piece of her mind.
