Hoshino looked at the compact-style mirror, and flinched at the reflection of her real face.  This was an escape from that reality, she had no interest in being herself here.  She tried to close it but the flashes of light around her were suddenly echoed in her own compact and she blinked rapidly...and looked down at her own body, lookign exactly as she did in the real world.<br/><br/><em>...and I thought it was just some pervert that designed the haptic feedback linkages...</em>she thought dismally.  Artemis' transformation was even more severe though and she blushed faintly to see Sara in shining white armor and carrying a gleaming sword.  "...shit..." she murmured softly, looking around.  There were already a number of people who had been one gender transformed into the other.  Sara wasn't the only one swapped, though it seemed to be a thing for the guys more than the girls in this case.  But the number of transformations for gender was much less concerning than the number of younger people here.<br/><br/>"Well, it looks like we're both outed, Artemis," she said softly, though she didn't mean as a couple in this particular instance.  She wasn't entirely unknown, even in the relatively new SAO communities.  "I hope he gets tired of playing god soon," she murmured, switching back to Japanese.  "If he doesn't...I don't know what's going to happen to us.  I've already tried emailing my father...there isn't any service.  He's isolated the server entirely it seems."  The shouts of 'why', 'what is the point', and 'how could you' echoed around her and her friend, but Hoshino's question was still unasked, and unanswered.<br/><br/><em>How can I get Sara out of here safely...?</em>
