Kevin's smirk widened, his competitive spirit igniting a fiery determination within him. "Oh, Sam, you have no idea what awaits you," he taunted, the playful menace in his voice sending a shiver down Sam's spine. Leaning forward, Kevin's eyes narrowed, fixated on the challenge ahead. "Prepare yourself for the ultimate defeat. I shall crush you in this game and leave you in my dust," he declared, a mischievous glint illuminating his eyes.

Undeterred by Kevin's bravado, Sam chuckled, his confidence unwavering. "We'll see about that, my friend. Do not underestimate my skills. I have honed my gaming prowess in the shadows," he replied, his voice dripping with false modesty.

As the game loaded, the room brimmed with electric anticipation. The screen came alive, displaying a breathtaking slideshow of anime-styled boys and girls, wielding swords, launching magical attacks, and engaging ferocious monsters. Kevin and Sam gazed in awe, their eyes locked on the vivid imagery unfolding before them. It wasn't just a simple PvP battle; it was an immersive, fast-paced adventure that promised to captivate their senses until they unraveled the game's intricate story.

With a surprising twist, the game transitioned to a thrilling introductory sequence, allowing them brief glimpses into the lives of the characters they were about to embody. A young swordsman with captivating brown eyes, and an energetic swordswoman with a long ponytail, her hair swaying in the wind as she flashed a grin—each frame was rendered in high-definition detail, making them feel as if they were standing right there, caught in the midst of the action.

Suddenly, they found themselves near the grandeur of Big Ben tower, the ambiance shifting in mere seconds. The transition was seamless, leaving Kevin and Sam momentarily stunned. They blinked, their surroundings transforming once again. The main menu materialized before them, showcasing the two protagonists in dynamic poses, their hair gently billowing in an invisible breeze—a testament to the game's attention to detail.

"Woah," Kevin exclaimed in shock, his gaze fixed on the girl whose hat was unexpectedly blown off, her futile attempt to catch it eliciting laughter from the boy. Eventually, she managed to retrieve her hat, issuing a playful growl in response. Their interactions played out in a quick, animated sequence, seamlessly blending the real and the virtual.

"Yeah, man, this game is something else. I hope it lives up to our expectations and stands the test of time," Sam remarked, his voice tinged with a hint of nostalgia as he recalled past games that had been forgotten or left unfinished. "Absolutely," Kevin agreed, his anticipation mounting as he selected the multiplayer option, joining the room named "Eveleth" created by Sam. With a definitive click, a funky sound resonated, and the loading screen appeared. Kevin settled back into his chair, feeling a sense of relaxation wash over him in the comfort of his dorm room, his side screen poised for action. Simultaneously, Sam's side screen came alive, the room buzzing with energy. Both players remained anonymous for now, their chosen names yet to be revealed, adding an air of mystery to their impending adventure.




Kevin's attention was drawn to the soft glow emanating from his screen, but his focus quickly shifted to the scene unfolding in the living room. Estrella sat in a chair, her gaze fixed on a large bowl of salad that had just been prepared. The vibrant colors of olives and green peppers contrasted beautifully with the rich, creamy dressing that coated the fresh, crisp leaves. The aroma of spicy chicken strips wafted through the air, enticing the senses. Each ingredient had been meticulously diced and blended together, creating a tantalizing mixture of flavors.

Meanwhile, Zack, dressed comfortably in his pajamas, had taken on the role of their father, playfully sliding the bowl across the living room toward Estrella. As the bowl approached her, a flicker of confusion sparked in her warm, brown eyes. Zack, on the other hand, beamed with delight, his gray eyes twinkling in the soft light. His tousled, light black hair framed his face, adding to his carefree charm.

Nearby, a crackling campfire emanated a cozy warmth, casting a gentle glow throughout the room. The flickering flames danced in harmony with the warm cinnamon scent that permeated the atmosphere, creating an inviting ambiance. The living room became a sanctuary, a place where the comforting scents and soft illumination created a soothing atmosphere.

"Wait, Estrella, what's troubling you? Do you miss Dad that much?" Zack's voice was tinged with concern as he took a seat beside his sister. Estrella, with her determined gaze and her own aspirations of becoming a swordsman like her brother, longed for a shared adventure, a chance to join him in something grand.




I...I'm just feeling a bit lonely tonight. The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows that danced along the walls. Estrella sat on the edge of the sofa, her fingers gently tracing the patterns on the fabric. The silence hung heavy in the air, broken only by the distant sound of a clock ticking. The anticipation of meeting her boyfriend, Kevin, had filled her heart, but now a sense of unease settled in. He had gone out on errands earlier, but he hadn't returned, and that was highly unusual for him. A knot of worry tightened in her chest, and she couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.

Zack, sensing her distress, nodded understandingly. The warmth of the room embraced them, offering a small measure of solace. "I'm sorry to hear that, Estrella," he said gently, his voice a comforting presence in the otherwise hushed room. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Estrella managed a grateful smile, her eyes shimmering with appreciation. "Just knowing that you're here helps a lot," she confessed. "But please, don't worry about me. I'll be fine. I'm just worried about Kevin right now."

As Estrella's worry lingered, the scene shifted. The game they had been playing paused abruptly, and Sam erupted into laughter, his boisterous amusement filling the room. Kevin, caught off guard, blushed deeply, his heart pounding in his chest. "That can't be a coincidence," Sam snickered, a mischievous glimmer in his eyes. "No way, bro. You're in this game too, awww."

Kevin stammered, struggling to find the right words, his embarrassment palpable. "Sh-shut up, Sam!" he managed to say, his voice wavering. He tried to brush off the connection, dismissing it as mere chance. "Maybe we just happen to have the same names as famous people or others we don't know. It's just luck," he reasoned, his words more an attempt to convince himself than Sam.

But Sam's smug expression revealed his disbelief. The unspoken truth hung between them, adding an air of intrigue to their gaming session. With a shared glance, they returned their focus to the cut scene, eager to uncover more of the game's secrets.
