Once again, the guests all were guided to the dining table by the side of the pool outside the main resort building. Each of them had seemingly forgotten about Mike's body being found there a couple of days prior, and just tried to focus on their food.
They didn't get to focus for long however, as Giles soon appeared.
Everyone stopped eating and waited for Giles to rip into the envelope which would hold the letter supplied by the killer. It didn't take long for Giles to clear his voice and project so all could hear.
"Congratulations to..."
Everyone looked in the direction of Brett & Chantal.
"Brett! You are spared for tonight. For the rest of you, please sit back and listen while Giles talks you all through what you didn't know."
"Congrats to the power couple." Mary said sarcastically under her breath.
Chantal squeezed Brett's hand in congratulations before preparing herself to hear how Jeremy died.
"After a long amount of consideration the night of the last meal, I decided to ultimately kill off Jeremy. I was able to easily enter his room with my master key card, which gives me access to any room on the island. Thankfully, once I entered, Jeremy was sound asleep. Using my vile of general anesthetic, I was able to quickly knock out Jeremy. Using a wheelchair, I was able to wheel Jeremy out of his room and eventually was able to exit with him out of the front doors. After a short time of wheeling, I arrived at my destination. Lifting a lever from a section of uneven ground, I entreated my underground lair. I like to call my little liar 'the house of wax'. If you were lucky to enter today, you would see several mannequins were covered in hot wax. Jeremy would become my first wax doll. Sitting him in my seat contraption, I was able to practically fry Jeremy alive with the hot wax. The wax stripped his own skin and made a layer of its own substance for a second skin. I then left Jeremy overnight for the wax to settle. The next morning, I collected the director the next morning and hung him in Giles's suite once I made sure he wasn't inside anymore. For those who investigated the crime scene, they would have noticed the blood splatter was in the opposite direction of the body. I used pigs blood. Eventually, the body was discovered, and the top bet for the killer was hung out to dry. Your killer."

Giles the butler didn't waste any time and opened the second letter which revealed the order of the names.
"Chantal, please reveal your fate first."
Chantal was , which wasn't a shock for anyone as she and Brett both solved the riddle.
"Kristina?"
Kristina anxiously clasped her drink. This was the first time she properly feared she could be scared. However, after the drink was done, the gymnast found out she was.
"Kendra?"
The model was glad to have some champagne down her throat again. However, once she found out her fate she dropped the glass. For the third time, she was .
"Why does this always happen to me?!" Kendra was furious as she squeezed the glass in her hand.
Grace tried to comfort the younger alliance member, however, the blonde snapped the authors hand away.
"I'm fine," Kendra's voice trembled.
"Grace?"
"Troy?"
Troy was as well, even though he really doubted his chances of surviving.
This left two. Mary & Cecilia. The two alliance members were up against one another. Only one would be spared and one would be scared.
"Mary?"
The eldest guest grabbed her champagne glass and started to slush it down. Cecilia kept her eyes glued on the glass as she liquid evaporated more and more.
Eventually, Mary found out she was
Cecilia took a quiet sigh of relief after finding out Mary's fate, and tipped her champagne on the floor before revealing that she
Mary let out a couple of tears while Kendra sat slouched in anger.
"It appears that Miss Clarke or Mrs Banes will be the next to die. The killer has informed me that we will be having an early start tomorrow morning. Attendance at the resort spa building and 7 AM is mandatory, any late arrivals will not be tolerated. Goodnight guests." With that, Giles left the eight on the dining table, which had an uncomfortable silence ridden through it from the top to the bottom.

As usual, Brett & Chantal left the table together. They both headed off to Chantal room, as normal for the two over the past few days.
Kristina & Troy celebrated not being scared at the 24 hour self service bar on one of the building balcony's (the same bar Aubrey's body was flung off during the first day) From the balcony, the siblings invited the female alliance to join them. However, the female alliance parted ways. Cecilia & Grace joined the siblings at the bar while Mary & Kendra separated to their rooms.
The two females were terrified at the prospect of their lives being cut short by a sadistic killer. Kendra had gotten a bit used to it by now, however Mary could barely sleep that night. Yes, she was the oldest and had lived a good life. But she wanted to live through the game, she wanted to make it out.
That very night, the killer made their decision on who to kill off. It was a very hard decision for many reasons, many factors came across the killers mind for keeping or killing either guest. But once they made their mind up, they were dead set on the victim. The killer was about to claim its sixth victim.

Dreamland
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies. If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game! Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen? Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her. As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions. It is a slow-developing story. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it with you, dear reader if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling. This is not a classical isekai story. There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story. This is not an MMORP game story. Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world. Updates on a weekly basis, at least Monday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow. Cover art: White Flower as A Dark Fairy by Darkrealmsmaiden Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover. There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site: https://www.deviantart.com/darkrealmsmaiden Additional Grammar Trigger Warning: As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :( Well, you have been warned :) I appreciate it when a reader points out a sentence that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems are. * We thought we made the best game in Earth's history We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen We thought we made it - lifelike But it far exceeded our expectations. Dolores, I hope you're happy now. I hope you're alive now...
