TW: Mentions of blood, death by strangling, noose mention
Sam's POV:
I started walking away from the group in the opposite direction, I didn't want to be in this school for another second! The others wanted to keep exploring, but I knew I wanted to get out as soon as we saw Ruby's decapitated bloody body. I walked back down the hall and turned left, going down another long hallway before seeing what looked to be a gym. I had a thought to check out the gym, but I then had a gut feeling to leave. I chose my mind over my gut and tried to open the door, "locked..I should've known.." I mumbled, and I reached my hand onto my head and took out a bobby pin holding my hair back and tried to pick the lock. After about 5 or so minutes, the door opened, I walked inside and turned on the light with the dusty light switches and looked around the huge gym.
Maddie's POV:
I flew out of the workshop and saw that one of them went in the opposite direction from the rest..It must be because of the girl I killed by mistake..but maybe this one may be Jacob? I started moving towards where the other one went and noticed the gyms lights on "The gym? That's a strange place to go..well I guess I'll go get him" I said as I went into the brightly filled gym.
Sam's POV:
The gym was huge, bleachers laid closed and pushed in, basketball hoops were up. "Hmm..I wonder what's in these doors?" I questioned quietly, taking out my lock pick that I had placed in my pocket and picked the lock again. I opened the door, it creaked as I had to turn on another light to see what was in here, there were several gym activities inside. I saw jump ropes in various sizes, basketballs, scooters, volleyballs, and even more. After looking for a while I turned around and left the activity room.

Maddie's POV:
Perfect, I have just the thing to kill him with. I went in and grabbed a large jump rope, this will definitely do the job. I closed the doors as always and went closer and closer to him until I did what I had to do.
Sam's POV:
I was going to leave until the doors slammed shut, making me trapped inside. Before I could turn, I felt something wrap around my neck and start strangling me! I tried grabbing at it, my breathing catching itself, I could feel my face turning paler..I couldn't breathe..my vision was going black, but before it could I was spun around and I saw who was killing me. My vision cut out after that and I felt limp.
Maddie's POV:
I wrapped the rope around his neck, pulling it tighter and tighter and I strangled him. I could hear his breathing catching itself, trying to get some air when he didn't deserve it. I laughed as I spun the man around as his face was paler than a ghost and had a little bit of blue. But when I opened my eyes, it wasn't him..it was the girl they called Sam. I killed another innocent human..I think I'm seeing them as Jacob but they're not. I ended up making a jump rope noose and tied it to the basketball hoops..I felt bad for the second time. I quickly turned the lights off and disappeared..
I felt bad for Sam, but as me and Henry were walking we heard a noise coming from somewhere. We started walking towards the noise before we were eventually in front of the gym. We walked in and turned on the light, seeing a horrible image that hurt my soul and my heart. There was Sam..hung from the basketball hoop by a jump rope noose. Her body was limp, her face a pale blue color and her bright blue eyes turned grey. I could feel my instincts rise as I wanted to leave badly..but I still wanted to walk around the Café just one more time. Without either of us saying anything, we walked away, "" I said quietly..he looked at me and snapped back "WHY THE HELL DO YOU WANT TO STAY HERE ANY LONGER?! YOU ALREADY SAW TWO OF YOUR FRIENDS DEAD, NOW YOU WANT TO CHECK OUT THE DAMN CAFÉ! IM LEAVING THIS GODDAMN PLACE! HAVE FUN!" He said loudly, scaring me a little bit as he sped walked away down the hall and out of my vision range.

Henry's POV:
I left Ace standing there alone. I couldn't believe the guy wanted to stay for another second?! I kept walking before I was swept into the Café by a force and the doors were shut and locked. "Huh? What the hell Ace let me out?!" I yelled. But what I heard next scared the down right shit outta me..

Decompose!
Dear diary. When you read stories about some people missing and returning after years of absence claiming they were living in another world, your first reaction is to scoff and dismiss a story as a tall tale, right? I know I did. All the time. Until it happened to me and I no longer did. That day was today. Some god of thunder smote me. If it were Chris Hemsworth, I wouldn't mind but it was some barbaric Hitite god that abaondned Earth some four millennia ago. Yes, what can I say? I love the seventh art. I have more hours watching movies than any other activity, including sleep. What? Do you think I'm exaggerating? Maybe I am. I'll really miss hollywood the most. And my biggest regret is that I never got to visit the holy city of cinema. I did not come to another world to be a hero even though there was hints that they hoped I'd save it. I did not come with overpowered abilities able to, dunno, leap tall castles in a single bound, faster than a speeding crossbow bolt, be more powerful than a eight-horse carriage, the bounds. No. After the asshole god that murdered me brought me to his world, he gave me some boons from his discount bin and "The Power of my Soul (tm)". Forgive my french, I hope you understand I am rather upset at dying. And he somehow decided that my power is to recycle stuff. How awesome is that? Not much at first, I must admit. At least I got all my camping stuff and equipment with me. There's no lycra in the other world. I'll make it someday, but that day is not today. So here I am. In another world, in the middle of nowhere. I'm no heroine. As the song goes, I'm your basic average girl. And I'm assumed to be here to save the world. But almost everything can stop me, because I'm not named Kim. Wish me luck, diary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This novel is going have the following features: slow-paced slice-of-life No GameLit / LitRPG elements. Movie references. Sandra likes the seventh art. Journal / diary style crafting (includes chemistry, engineering and metallurgy) low magic technological advancement (for Sandra, at least. She is not against sharing though) personal relations clash of perception between the modern and ancient customs. bits of tension, fighting, and plot here and there. I won't repeat myself though. Once she crafts a good batch of soap, for example, she'll just note, "I crafted soap again." Once it is estabilished how she obtains compound X, compound X2 that is obtainable from the same process will also just be mentioned. I'll try to be as realistic as I can with the crafting, chemistry, and technology. Cover: Public Domain Image by StockSnap from Pixabay. No attribution required but we do it anyway.

The General Core {The Sphere}
The life cycle in the Sphere is on the brink of collapse because one of its elements, the Dungeons, have been exploited too much by the mortals. The group who created the Sphere already tried and failed with several modifications, because the original computer-like dungeon cores are too inflexible to handle changing approaches. So they try another type of solution – taking souls from other worlds to try to find a solution before the Sphere Cycle breaks down completely. The General was one of the best soldiers of his world, rising from the ranks of a private through Officer School to the highest command with honors. But when his world faced a zombie apocalypse, even that was not enough and he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now he is asked for a repeat performance of planning and controlling a dungeon and its spawns in a world that he knows nothing about… But what is the Sphere really? What is that [Xenotic conversion] he has to go through to even enter the Sphere? Something is really strange and he will have to find out what is going on to get to his promised rewards – whatever they will be. Being a soul in a dungeon core means that the General has better chances of finding hints to the truth about the sphere – a knowledge that would help him survive. And no, the sphere is NOT a virtual reality – the key to its secrets is the place where it was physically constructed (Author’s hint). This is a dungeon core story - but there are quite a number of things that I will do differently than common to those stories. 1) I will describe the floors when they are explored, NOT when they are build. Yes, that will mean it will take longer to get to those parts - but I think describing floors both when they are build and when they are explored destroys quite a lot of chances for suspense when adventurers enter the dungeon. After all, if you as the reader already know where the traps are, then you can't really be surprised when the surfacers encounter them. 2) How the world works (and how not) is an integral part of the story, so it will be explained I'm a world-builder first and the Sphere is NOT a regular world (as hinted in the synopsis above). Things will work differently than in your 08/15 default dungeon core stories - as the General and Gunny have already learned in the second arc (and more of that is already scheduled for the next weeks (July/Aug 2019) when the Sky Arrows continue to explore and evaluate that strange dungeon) If you don't like these premises, then I'm sure you'll find a lot of other Dungeon Core stories more to your liking. But if you are interested in more than "Dungeon builds another room and corridor in medieval earth" and are not afraid of a longer and slower story, then go on. I have two more stories in the Sphere, although they both have lower priority than this one: Shaleen the Wanderer (Adventurer, NSFW) (currently on hold after some chapters) Info's on the Sphere (System Docu and Short Stories) (irregular updates when needed) Current Status reports have been moved to a new discord server: https://discord.gg/EaHkXCfm9y
