Last Extra one-shot! I wrote this ages ago but wanted to share it. Based on the world of 'Sword Art Online', our two mess up twins find themselves inside a video game! Short but had fun writing this. As you noticed from the 'Part I', I plan on writing more one-shots in this universe.

So...stay tuned :).

It was a quiet morning in Echo Creek, with sunlight faintly hitting a young man. The bright light hit the boy's brown hair, making him blink his hazel eyes open. "Ugh…morning already?" He turned toward his alarm clock, spotting the time. "Wow! I'm almost late for the game launch!" The boy frantically runs toward his closet, pulling out his pre-order ticket and cloths. Tossing on his trademark red hoodie and black jeans he runs out of his house and dials his phone.

"Marco?" The bright female voice emits from the phone, sounding half-asleep. "Do you know it is the…"

"Get your royal butt out of bed! The game launches in a half hour Star!" Marco screams.

"WHAT!? Why are you waking up so late man? Better hold our place in line…" She growled.

"Well you better have your ticket princess. Right near your…" Marco is about to finish before being crashed by a blond girl. She is wearing a colorful blue dress with a spider necklace and rubbing her head.

"STAR! Get back here…" A regal voice emits from Star's house, but the tall blue-haired woman spots Marco. "Oh…is that game you two wanted out today?"

"Y..Yes mam. Sorry for coming so late to pick up Star." Marco groans, helping Star up. "I told you about the risks for the game, so it's okay she plays it with me?"

"Come on Marco! You spent 650$ on the game and headsets already…" Star moaned, but Marco's intense gaze makes her freeze in place. "Mom?"

"Sigh…I heard the reports about how the headset worked. I'm sure it is safe." Star's mother responds. "You will take care of her regardless of what happens, right Marco Diaz?" She says in a dead-serious tone toward Marco. He doesn't flinch and nods excessively. Star's mom smiles and shews the two away.

A half hour later, they get the game and begin hooking it up in Marco's house. "Surprise there are two ports for the headsets…maybe it has local multiplayer?" Marco ponders. Star is fiddling with the wires and is tangled up. "Come here, let me fix that." He scoots closer to Star and gets her headset working right. Star blushes from how close Marco is to her and he responds back with a smile. "Sorry for being so close but I wanted to make sure it was cozy."

"I don't mind…much." Star teased, making Marco rolls his eyes.

"Okay, so we got our characters set up and all we need to do is press a button on the headset. Ready Star?" Star holds Marco's hand, making the boy blush.

"Yep! Let's go on an adventure!" Marco chuckles as they press buttons on the headsets. The two lay back on the couch and close their eyes, as if they were zapped into another plain of existence. Waves of light surround their senses and the two have no idea where they are going. But soon a bright white light covers their senses….

"Marco? Where are we?" Star asks in confusion. Looking around, she notices her hands are gloved white. Standing up, she looks down and see a blue skirt hanging down. "I wonder…" Star races toward a body of water, which makes her gasp at her appearance. She is wearing a princess-like outfit, but it mirrors a warrior's battle outfit more than anything. A long white coat surrounds her body but her top and skirt are pure blue. What strikes Star the most is her face. Both of her cheeks have heart-shaped tattoos and they glow a faint shade of rainbow colors.

"Star? You up?" She turns her head around and her face feels warm. Marco rubs his brown hair and Star takes in his new look. He is donning a red vest, supported with a ruby cape. The vest is hooked with belts and a black jacket. His pants are still black like normal but his face now has an odd scar mark. "You look…different."

"Same to you handsome." She covers her mouth, but Marco chuckles. "What is so funny?"

"Your face has strange glowing tattoos now." Star pouts, making Marco roll his eyes. "Okay, enough joking. I guess this is the starting area?"

"Guess so. Gotta say, reminds me of that Zelda game you like so much." Marco couldn't help but agree, with the sky having a vast shade of crystal blue and the fields having glass flowing in the distance. Flowers are twilling and vast hills are in the distance. A faint image of buildings are in the far distance, making Marco ponder.

"We gotta head that way." Marco points toward the buildings. Star squints and notices them too. "So, ready to go on the adventure princess?"

"Knock that off…hate that nickname Safe Kid." Star grunts.

"Hey! You look like a princess sometimes…your new get-up doesn't help matters." Marco states matter-of-fact. Star groans and drags Marco. "Don't pull me. I'm going. Geez." The two laugh briefly and continue walking, trying to find other players. Finally getting to a town, the two notice other players looking…down. As if they heard horrific news.

"You would think that a new game would make people more exited…" Star mumbles. Marco ponders why players are so nervous but soon a player a red crashes into them.

"Hey!" Marco shouts back, pushing the red-haired horned player to the ground. "You crashed into me and my g…best friend." The hooded boy stuttered. The red-haired player rubbed his head and Marco helped him up.

"Gotta watch where you're going buddy." Star says as she rolled her eyes but her expression soon surprised. "Tom?"

"Star? Marco?! You are playing this game too?! Oh crap." Tom says in panic. Marco guides him and Star away from the other players. "This is a death game now, didn't you two know?"

"What?" Star and Marco say in unison. Tom looks at the two in bewilderment before giving them a pitiful look.

"Better I show you…" He pulls up a holographic menu and presents a video. It shows players being in the center of some town-square and a large cloaked figure laughing.

"Now you are part of the growing experiment of mind called 'Kingdoms of the Dimensions' and you are forever stuck in this game until you beat the 100th floor. If you try to log-out, you cannot. The menu is disabled and I did that on purpose. Now, if you try to take the headset off, well…your brains fry like eggs. Have fun and feel free to contact me via messaging system…if it's about escaping the game, well, I have no answers for you. Goodbye."

Marco is frozen in place, violently shaking with fear. Star just has a confused expression, scratching her head. "I…I…I got us trapped in a death game. I'm such a horrible friend Star." He falls on floor and sobs quietly.

"Marco…" Star finally lets the gravity of the situation sink in and sits next to her best friend. "It will be okay. We will get through this together." Tom rubs his neck and is sad at the scene; his best friends sad about being trapped in the game. He couldn't contact them before signing in, so they got no warning before they hooked things up.

"Look, I will help you guys. Let's party up and work together in getting out of here." Tom says in a calm voice. "I will never let my friends get hurt." Marco lightly slaps himself and gently gets off the ground.

"Okay…" Marco opens the holographic menus and sets up a party. He notices the different weapons they started out with. Tom has a battle ax while Marco uses dual-swords. Star's set up is what confused Marco the most. "Star?"

"Yeah buddy?" Star asks puzzled. "I know! These menus are so confusing…"

"No…notice your weapons?" He points to her menu. "You have a reaper sword…and a magic wand." Star's eyes grow wide and she summons the wand. It is purple with a crystal star in the center, glowing a bright yellow light. "I have dual swords, but from what I read, this game has no magic systems."

"Huh…" Star ponders but shrugs the thought. "So we are in a party now? Can I name it; please?!" Tom and Marco groan, sighing in defeat. "I want us to be called…the Starknights!"

"Sounds cool. Like that Tom?" Marco asks his red-haired friend. He simply nods, giving Star a thumbs up. "Okay, so Starknights it is. How about we get going to a local tavern and fight some monsters to level-up a bit later?"

"Sounds good Marco. While we might die and junk…adventure away!" Star storms ahead, leaving Tom baffled.

"Dude…she knows we might die now, right?" Marco rolls his eyes at his friend and folds his arms.

"Look, I rather Star be excited about this then devastated. At least she has us man." Marco responds back. Tom just sighs in agreement and places a hand on his shoulder.

"We will get out of here…I promise you." Marco nods and the two chase after their hyperactive friend before she hurts herself. The adventure of the Starknights begin, getting ready for a long journey together as a team.
