《The Fading Sunshine》Chapter 12
Advertisement
**Still Hinata's POV
I laid in the room for about 20 minutes before I thought about my team. They might be looking for me. I need to go back.
I slowly got up and grunted from the pain. Everything hurt. I walked to the bathroom to look at the damage done. I had bruises on my sides and a pretty sizable bruise on my left cheek. And and top of all of that, I had my busted lip to worry about.
I washed off the dried blood and looked in the mirror. How am I gonna explain this to the team.
**Kuroo's POV
Hinata had been missing for about an hour and a half now. We had been out looking for him but he was no where to be seen. Karasuno's captain, Daichi, asked if I minded helping look for him. I of course agreed. Suga and Asahi went back to Karasuno's room in case he came back, but the rest of us went out and looked for him around the dorms.
I walked out near the bathrooms to see if something had happened to him in there. His team did say he was going to the bathroom after all.
I opened the door, but nothing could've prepared me for what I saw. I saw Hinata in the floor crying with his knees pulled to his chest. What could've possibly happened to make Karasuno's little sunshine cry.
I must've been pretty quiet coming in because he didn't look up at me. Or maybe he just wasn't paying attention. "Hinata?" I said quietly, I didn't want to scare frighten him. But there was no response. I slowly walked over and said, "Hey... Hinata." I put my hand on his shoulder and he flinched hard.
"DON'T TOUCH ME!" He screamed.

I looked at his face and it was a mess. He had a huge bruise on the side of his face and a freshly split lip. And on top of all of this his face was covered in tears.
I knelt down so that our eyes were level and he stared at me. His eyes were full of fear. "Hey... It's me Kuroo. You're okay. You're safe." I said, I didn't know how to make him calm down. Hell, I didn't even know what was going on with him.
He looked at me for a few seconds and fell into my chest as he sobbed. He was violently shaking. What happened to you Hinata.
"Hey can you tell me what happened?" I said softly. I was never one to show my feelings but this was scaring me to my core. It had to be serious in Hinata was this upset.
He just slightly shook his head and kept crying. He gripped my shirt tighter and leaned farther into me.
"It was bad wasn't it?" I said. He nodded.
"You need to tell me what happened. I can't help you if you don't tell me what's going on.
"N-not tonight..." He said in between sobs.
"Okay, that's fine. It's okay if you don't feel like talking about it right now." I said
"P-please don't tell my t-team." He said as he looked up at me. I looked into his eyes and saw nothing but pain.
"I won't. I promise." I said. He leaned back into me but he didn't cry as hard this time. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him closer. I don't know what happened but I want to help him.
**Hinata's POV
Kuroo found me in the bathroom during one of my breakdowns. He held me as I cried and his arms felt so comforting.

I told him that I don't want to talk about what had happened. I couldn't do it. Not tonight. It was too much right now.
After about 10 minutes he finally got me calmed down. We cleaned up my face and walked out of the bathroom towards our room. We didn't run into anyone in the hall but when we arrived at the room we were met by Suga and Asahi.
"Hinata, where have you been." Asahi asked.
I looked at Kuroo but he just looked at the two third tears and shook his head. They must have understood what he was trying to say be they didn't ask anymore questions about the subject.
"Can you at least tell us if you're okay?" Suga asked cautiously.
"I am now..." I said. I saw Kuroo look at me from the corner of my eye.
"Okay, that's all that matters." Suga said.
"I'll go get the others, they'll probably want to ask questions though. Are you sure you're up for that?"
"I don't know if I can do that tonight." I said as I looked down at the floor.
"He can stay in our room for the night if it's fine with you and your team." Kuroo told Suga
"That would mean a lot, thank you." Suga said.
Kuroo offered to walk me back to their room so I grabbed my blanket and pillow and Tsuki walked me to Nekomas room.
"Are you gonna be okay for the night?" Kuroo asked.
"Yeah I think so." I said with a soft smile.
We walked in and most of Nekoma was already asleep. That wasn't shocked by that's though. It was almost 11:00 at this point. Kuroo showed me to an extra futon I could sleep on.
I shook as I laid on the mattress we, the memories from earlier came flooding back to me. I felt like I was hyperventilating. Then I felt an arm on my shoulder. I looked back and saw Kuroo. His eyes were closed but he still help me and whispered, "Its alright, you're safe now."
I calmed down and laid in silence. I couldn't fall asleep and my brain soon started to drift and think of earlier again. This time I didn't panic but I felt mad at myself.
Why didn't I try harder to stop him. I gave in. This is my fault. Besides, one will believe I didn't want to fuck him anyways. I'm gay, they'll all say I flirted with him or that I asked for it.
I carefully moved Kuroo's hand and went to Nekoma's bathroom. They had their own bathroom inside their room since it's there gym. I locked the door and looked around for one of their razors.
⚠️⚠️⚠️
I finally found one. I broke the plastic and removed the blade from it. I took it in my hands and raised my sleeve from around my wrist.
I repeated this on my other wrist and watched as the blood trickled from my wrist and dropped to the floor. I disposed of the broken razor and washed off the blood. I rummaged through the bags of bathroom products and finally found some bandages.
⚠️⚠️⚠️
I wrapped my wrists as well as I could and went back into the room. I felt better now. I laid back down and soon fell asleep.

Infinite Realm: Monsters & Legends
The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received the chance for a new life in a new reality. Zach grew in power and thrived in the post-Framework world. He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again—and make it pay. Ryun survived the chaos after the arrival of the Framework by pushing harder than anyone else. He grew in power until he became the most powerful being that had ever walked the planet; but he is hated by the world, called a monster by all others, the World Ender. As the world ends and he steps into a new one, where people stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. The only thing that had mattered to him had been lost to him long ago. He truly was the monster that people considered him to be, and he now finds himself wondering if this new reality has a place for someone like him—but he had never been one for lying down and dying without a fight. One world fell to his power, and another might follow. Current schedule: Monday/Wednesday/Friday Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/ncC5Q7H A polished and edited versions of volume 1, 2, and 3 is avaliable on Amazon. Current Volume: 4 Infinite Realm is a story that will follow two main characters at the start, with a few more joining the cast a bit later. The story will be told in two different time periods: past and present up until volume 3. Past chapters take place in the past on Earth, and take form of flashbacks that follow the two as they struggle to survive and grow their powers in the world changed by the Framework. The main story is in the present. This story is a mix of LitRPG and Xianxia, and it will have Classes as well as Cultivation systems. There are two main characters, and a few others that are introduced later. The MC focus will change from volume to volume, with the first being focused on Ryun, and the second on Zach (we are currently in Volume 4). Other MCs will still have chapters dedicated to them, but the focus will be on the main volume MC.

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

His goal draws him to a violent path as he attempts to conquer Heaven, Hell and everything in between.Authors note:I was born and raised in South Africa. Most of my motivation for the story will come from my experiences so despite this being a mainly Asia industry I hope cultural gaps don’t come in the way of readers enjoying my story. I love manga and anime and recently started reading web novels so I was inspired to write my own. Comments are greatly appreciated, thanks and enjoy the story.
