(Narrator)
Heavens Grace a VRMMO where players travel the world battling monsters and bosses, a week after its beta released the game continues to grow in popularity

(Kuro walking down a sidewalk)

(Narrator)
This here is Kuro a 15 year old boy who plays Heavens Grace hoping to find some sort of purpose

(Kuro gets home and looks at clock reading 6:00pm, Kuro puts his headset on and logs into Heavens Grace)

(Arashi)
Hey Kuro, what's up, wanna go monster hunting?

(Narrator)
This is Arashi Kuro's best friend

(Kuro)
Yea sure

(Arashi)
Alright let's go

(Field west of main town)

(Arashi)
Damn dude how are you so good at this?

(Kuro)
It's not that hard plus with the games assists it makes it easier to land a hit

(Arashi)
No not that, how do you stay so calm?

(Kuro)
It just comes naturally I guess

(Arashi)
Huh, well we better head back it's getting late and I need to eat I'm starving

(Kuro)
Ok

(Back in town an alarm starts blaring and all players are gathered in the center square, then six holograms appear)

(Admin)
Hello we are the admin of Heavens Grace, as of now you are stuck here in the game with no way to log out

(Players start to freak out trying to log out of the game)

(Kuro)
What the hell, why can't we log out, Arashi can you log out?

(Arashi)
No I can't

(Kuro)
I can't either what the hell is going on here

(Admin)
The only way to log out is to for someone to beat the game all 100 floors oh and one more thing if you die in here you will die in the real world and incase you were thinking if headset is removed you'd wake up not the case you will still end up dead, there has already been 200 players out of the original 8,000 who have done this so we doubt anyone will remove anymore headsets, so we suggest you get started and good luck

(Admins disappear leaving everyone in shock)

(Kuro)
Arashi I'm going on my own don't try and follow

(Arashi)
Wait you can't there's no reason for you to go off on your own we can team up and beat the game together

(Kuro)
You know why I'm going alone?

(Arashi)
Yea I know, ok but if you ever need any help in a fight you know I'll be ready alright

(Kuro)
Yea alright and if you need anything do the same I'll be there thanks man

(Arashi)
Yea man we gotta stick together even if we go separate ways

(Kuro)
Yea well later

(Arashi)
See ya

(6 months later)

(Kuro's thoughts)
It's been 6 months since we got stuck in this game and no one has been able to beat the first boss that's why

(Player a)
Man that boss is tough good thing we were able to get out

(Player b)
Yea it's been 6 months already and we still haven't even cleared the first floor

(Kuro walks by and goes to enter the boss arena by himself)

(Player b)
Huh dude is that guy seriously thinking of taking on that boss by himself?

(Player a)
What an idiot

(Both laugh)

(Player a)
Come on let's hurry back to town so we can watch the fight

(Player b)
Yea

(Kuro enters the arena and the fight begins)

(Kuro's thoughts)
I'm gonna be the first

(At the nearest town)

(Narrator)
These are screens that display the fights that happen in the boss arenas

(Player a)
Wow this dude is gonna fight the boss by himself

(Player c)
No way he's gonna last long

(The fight starts and the boss goes for an attack and slams his sword on the ground where Kuro stands)

(Player b)
Woah I didn't think the dude would get taken out in one shot

(Akari stands watching the screens, in the boss room the dust clears from where the boss attacked out of nowhere the boss gets hit in the back from an attack from Kuro after dodging with his speed)

(Player a)
Huh where did that come from?

(Player b)
Look it's him I guess he didn't get crushed after all

(Player c)
Wait so if he didn't get hit then wow he must be fast

(Kuro manages to get in some more hits without getting hit himself once the boss got down to half health the boss enters a second stage and increases its speed and strength the boss knocks back Kuro knocking the hood off his head, all of the sudden a girl runs in and the boss switches targets and goes for an attack on the girl)

(Kuro)
No what are you doing, get out of here, WATCH OUT!
