Past event for most players here. If you are going to post in here, assume that this is the very first day of the official release of SAO and RP as such. ;]

Opening his eyes, he saw a whole new world around him, astronomically different from the world he left. Sitting on a roof overlooking the Town of Beginnings, Angelo, his avatar's name, breathed in the crisp clean air.
"Now, time to figure out which one of the players here is my dear Haruka.." Angelo headed over to the starting point where he and everyone else first spawned by jumping from rooftop to rooftop, getting the occasional shouting from the NPCs below. The young looking teen with white hair had been in this world before, just about 5 days before the official release of Sword Art Online. Kou had received the beta access, but only recently started playing the game. Not much could be said about him. He knew a little bit about the town already, but he didn't really get a lot of combat experience. After a while, he reached the location, only to see that no one was present aside from a few random NPCs walking around.
"Where could she be? Hmm.. if only I had bothered to ask what her avatar's name would be.. then again, this was supposed to be a surprise.."
Angelo looked around and shook his head. He knew she had long since departed the area and is already somewhere else in the town. Sighing, he stretched his legs and got ready for his personal quest, [The Search for the Sister]. Scouring the entire town and all the popular spots, Kou spent a good hour trying to find Haruka, to no avail. It was only a few minutes after he began to take a break when the bell began ringing and he was suddenly teleported to the middle of the town. Several other players were being forcibly teleported to the area until the entire plaza was packed. Wondering what was about to happen, Angelo began moving through the crowd in an attempt to find his sister. His search was cut short when a small red <WARNING> icon popped into the sky. Others saw the same thing and murmured about what was about to happen. It suddenly expanded rapidly until it covered the entire sky. Then something red what looked like blood began oozing out of the sky until it formed a giant ball. From it, a gigantic red-cloaked man appeared. It was later revealed to be Kayaba Akihiko, the creator of SAO. The bad news began to pile on from there. As he continued speaking, fear spread out through the crowd like wildfire until finally panic and chaos ensued. Angelo got out of the plaza and scaled up the building until he was on the roof, overlooking the entire plaza.
"Haruka.. Where are you?!" Small beads of tears began forming on the edge of his eyes but Angelo blinked them away.
I need to find you so we can get out of here, quickly..
