Hey guys for those of you who care ... i have not abandoned shield high I'm just not entirely happy with what i've go so far but a chapter will be coming soon... hopefully :)
Also a heads up that for this story i will actually be posting once a week ( i'm not just saying that this time) and that is because i've realized that if i half complete the story or at least get 6 chapters a head then i should be able to post once a week even if i fall behind every once in a while.
Disclaimer: i do not own the Avengers ( although like all fan girls i wish i did ) nor do i own sword art online which i am basing this story upon ( at least in the beginning) there are going to be differences so if you haven't watched it and like anime then i do suggest watching it cause it's AMAZING ...
On another note if anyone is looking to be a beta i would appreciate it ... so send me a message if your interested
anyway enjoy :)

"Welcome to MMO stream, Today we are covering the launch of the world's first Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG). Last week Earth's Mightiest Defenders Online (EMDO) was released with gamers all around the world lining up for days frantically to get their hands on a copy on one of the 10,000 copies that were released."
Click
"The Beta testers all said the game was incredible and an out of this..."
Click
"I wish I was dedicated enough to line up days before the release to get a copy... the gamers who did must be dedicated..."
Click
"Sold out online in seconds and all the hardcore gamers bought the in store copies in a matter of..."
Click
"Thanos Starling the creator of Ear..."
Click
"Today thousands of gamers will be logging..."
Wait what was that last one... Click
"For those of you that have been living under a rock for the last couple of months, EMDO is played using the Nerve Gear created Starling and produced by Hammer-Industries, essentially a helmet that transports the player into the virtual online world."
Tony rolled his eyes, was she stupid or something the Nerve Gear was way more than a helmet, it was a virtual reality helmet that stimulates the user's five senses via their brain, players can experience and control their in-game characters with their minds, it was the work of a pure genius. Created by one of the most amazing gaming designers in the world Thanos Starling it was quite literally a work of art even if it was funded by Hammer industries.
"Sir..." Jarvis' called knocking softly.
"He's not coming is he J?" opening the door.
"No Sir, he had an important business meeting to attend to."
"That's fine J, it's not the first birthday they have missed and it most definitely won't be the last" Tony smiled but there was no humor "I guess once again J it's just you and me, happy sixteenth birthday to me"
"Sir, your mother's plane has landed early and she has asked that I drop her to the gala"
"That's fine J; I was going to play my new video game anyway so its fine really, Mother is always going from one charity or gala to the next it's not surprising that she forgot" he sighed "it's not important anyway"
"Anthony" Jarvis smiled and held out a slice a cake with a single candle on it that he seemingly produced out of thin air "Happy Birthday"
"Thanks J" Tony smiled widely it was an unspoken tradition had been for as long as he could remember that on his birthday Jarvis would bring him a slice of cake and a single candle as a silent remind Tony that even though his parents may have forgotten, Jarvis hadn't.
Tony blew out the candle and set the cake on his desk, turning to Jarvis Tony gave him a quick hug before checking his clock.
11.58am
"J, the games about to start, I have to get ready"
"I'll be off then sir, do have a good birthday and please keep out of trouble" Jarvis smiled as he left the room closing the door behind him.
"You know me J, when have I ever gotten into trouble" Tony called after him hearing Jarvis laugh on the other side of the door.
As Jarvis' footsteps faded away, Tony sighed once more.
Why did he let himself believe that his parents would come home for his birthday, sometimes Tony wondered if they would have even noticed his disappearance last summer if it were not for Jarvis.
Last summer
Tony felt panic rising painfully in his chest just thinking about it.
"Get you fucking head in the game Stark" he muttered to himself
Why oh fucking why would he go there ... he had just stopped thinking about it and now here he was again, it was like he could never escape being a freak of nature... he couldn't even pretend for a moment that he was normal, like he wasn't...
NO, I AM NOT GOING THERE... GET YOUR FUCKING HEAD IN THE FUCKING GAME STARK.
Rolling his eyes at his own stupidity, he plugged the nerve gear into his laptop and started it up.
Sliding the helmet over his head Tony lay on his bed.
11.59
Time to be someone else he smirked
"LINK START" he commanded closing his eyes
