Hi everyone. I'm back! Well. Here's a story. And if you were one of my readers who read Eternal... Look at my page. Welp, Enjoy! This is an SAO and PSO crossover.
Chapter 1: Virtual Reality
Welcome one and all to the release of the newest MMORPG! Everyone is
anxiously anticipating their fresh copy of Phantasy Star Online! Over
one hundred beta testers approved the game's newest technique in
involving the players...
Aimlessly watching the set in front of her, the girl watched for the
time. It was nearing six.
The servers for PSO will be up and fully functional for public use at
six! Gamers worldwide are now dashing home in order to...
She got up and placed the new Crowns Gear on her head. Sighing she sat
up on her bed and stared at her reflection in the mirror. The midday
light casted an eerie shadow on her face, making her seem even more
foreign and alienated to herself. She looked at the time, and layed
down. Soon, she would be in a place where she felt comfortable...
"Link Start!"
Her mind entered the world of virtual reality. Her settings pre-
callibrated, login information entered, and there she logged into the
world of Phantasy Star. Clutching at her chest she looked at the
darkness in space.
"I'm finally here!"
Her name was Nona. A level four Newman Force, with sub skills as a
Hunter, meaning she was a mage with fighting skills, much like your
standard Red Mage, depending on what you play. Her hair was blonde and
eyes a muddy brown, her height was a tad bit taller than how she
normally liked her characters. Around her dozens upon hundreds of
gamers signed into the game.
Knowing what spots she wanted to hit first, Nona navigated her way
around one of the four safe zones in the game and the primary center
of PSO, the Guardian's Colony. Running to the first floor, she
purchased the necessary items then dashed to the forth floor. The
first mission being to clear the SEED from the substation.
"Hoi! You there!"
Nona turned around, spotting another female player. She was a full
blown Hunter human, no sub skills in anything else. Nona frowned as
the girl stopped, her bust just inches away from her face.
"You...you look like you are a avid gamer. Please show me how to play!"
Quite shocked by the offer, Nona nodded. "I guess I could." She swiped
at the air pulling up her menu. A menu popped up on the woman's screen
requesting to join Nona's party. She accepted it.
"Thanks! I'm Sifah! Please treat me kindly."
"Nona. Please treat me kindly."
"Eek! There are so many of them!" Sifah yelped rolling out of the way.
"They pretty much act like goats, by charging at you aimlessly." Nona
informed, blocking the enemy's charging attack. "Please hurry and
charge your Photon weapon and finish it Sifah!"
Sifah charged her daggers and ran in yelling her special move. "Moubu
Seiran-zan!"
The enemy died, dropping meseta. and the door unlocked signalling the
clearance of the first mission. Nona received her Job Points (JP) and
compensation for completing the room. She was now a lvl eight Force,
and Sifah was a lvl six Hunter. Walking and transporting back to the
Guardians Colony, Nona left the party and smiled at Sifah.
"Got the hang of it now?"
"Yes! I didn't know that being a full blown Hunter required so much."
she rubbed her neck. "But thanks to you I think I'll survive just fine
if I ever do a run myself."
Nona nodded and sighed. "Well, I'm going to log off now. More than
less likely my family is yelling for me to get off my game." she
muttered opening her menu. When she pressed the button however, she
was still there.
"What the..?"
Sifah blinked. "What's wrong Nona?"
"I can't log out. It won't work." Nona said, a bit panicky.
Sifah opened her menu and attempted to see what was going on. "The
hell? Why can't I log out?"
Trumpets blared from the central floor, stopping everyone in their
tracks. Suddenly Nona and Sifah were engulfed in a blinding white
light. She felt her data being deorganized and reorganized in moments,
suddenly appearing on floor one of the Guardians Colony, along with
the other players. Sifah appeared not moments later beside her.
"What's going on? Why are we here?"
"I was in the middle of a mission!"
"I was purchasing clothes!"
Mixed conversations were going on in the room, when another blare was
let out. A loud screech silenced the room and then a voice boomed over
the intercom.
"Welcome, players of PSO. I would like to personally extend my thanks,
to those who beta tested the game, and for the remaining thousand who
have played."
"An invocation?" Nona murmured.
"Unfortunately, I've yet to pay you back, and this is how. As most of
you can see, the log off button is not there. This is not a defect, it
is a part of the game. Again, this is not a defect. I purposely did
not put in a log off feature."
The entire room went into an outrage, shouting displeasing words. Nona
stared straight ahead her heart racing.
"All players must remain here until the completion of the game. If one
of you were to clear the final room of the game then everyone is
released from the game. But, until then you, are here. Outside
interference, will result in an instantaneous death. Also, if you die
in the game, you die outside as well. Scape Dolls are now void, and
useless."
Nona's heart skipped a beat as a million ways for her life to end ran
through her head. She mustn't! She couldn't! She can't die!
"I've also given you all gifts. Open up your menu, and to you all, I
wish you good luck."
