8:54 PM

Right now I was in a common room in a mansion of unimaginable luxury, and among all the luxuries and the exquisite finish, I was throwing all possible books on the floor without any consideration in a desperate way, after looking for a while to somehow activate the secret door that was hidden in the bookcase, my patience ran out, so I took a small statue and hit the wall around it, in the new hole I found the cables that activated the mechanism and cut it. A strange sound was heard and then nothing happened, but when I checked the bookcase I could move it now, so I pushed it out of the way, finally revealing the stairs that led to the interior of the mansion. Without wasting time I took the gun out of my apron and went inside, I did not know what I could find in there, but most likely it is going to attack me, so I have to not hesitate and defend myself quickly.

I quickly went down the stone stairs until I come across something disturbing, It was a fairly large room, where there were cells everywhere, even on the floor, it was a prison. But that was the least of it, the strange thing was the unusual amount of dried blood that was everywhere, between the ground or the bars, almost the whole place was stained with red stains everywhere. This was a medieval prison, the place had all kinds of torture instruments, from whips and chains to the bloody iron maiden, what the hell is this place? They asked me to come for a doomsday computer, how can there be such a piece of technology in a hellish place like this?. But the strangest thing of all is that despite a large amount of blood that was in the place, there was no one, the place was empty, only I was standing in that place with a gun in hand. But I didn't have time to lose, according to Stella I don't have much time left and if they discover me now I will have to fight until I get out of here, I want to be hidden for as long as possible.

I decided to continue my journey into the prison, or rather the dungeon, the place was much bigger than I originally believed. But after a few minutes lost I quickly managed to find a corridor a little different from the rest, but also even more disturbing, Now the place still looked like the inside of a medieval castle, but now there were lights and machines everywhere, Machines connected to human parts, tubes with shredded parts of people inside, in some places there were hospital beds with blood in them. And the smell, the smell was unmistakable, it was the horrible smell of rotting corpses, it was really terrible. Whatever happens in this place, it won't be to save the world, that's for sure. Moving a little further I could see the source of the smell, it was a well, full of corpses, some seemed recent, others, others were practically bones with a little meat still attached, It is difficult to distinguish due to decomposition, but the number of girls who were dead was also worryingly high, at least most of what could be distinguished were young women. It was a terrifying sight, that I thought I would never again see something like this again. Suddenly a guard came out of a nearby door that he hadn't noticed before. This is bad, I have to do something and it must be now!
Without much time to think of something better, I threw myself into the pool and covered myself a bit with one of the bodies. The guard walked quite slowly, he seemed to be sleepy, so he did not want to walk, and at his place, he stood near the pit. Who the hell would be sleepy in a place like this and even worse almost sleep near the source of all this horrible smell. Suddenly the guard seemed to notice that I was breathing because his face went from a sleeper to be on alert, he was drawing a gun!. Seeing that my plan had failed, I resorted to plan B: try to kill him silently. I immediately jumped from where I was and jumped on him, grabbed his head with my hands, and tried to break his neck with my hands, but he was too much stronger than me, seeing that that would not lead me anywhere, he quickly changed the method, I jumped back, grabbed his neck with my arm and pushed him into the hole. When we barely fell and without giving him time to scream I got behind him to strangle him with my arm that I still had around his neck. He tried to fight for his life desperately, trying to grab me with his arms, throwing himself sideways, throwing himself back around. But I was determined, I would not release him until he was dead. After a few moments he stopped moving, he had lost consciousness, but even so, he was still not dead, I had to wait a little longer until he felt like losing his pulse, after quickly checking I saw that he was really dead for what leaves it there, inside the hole. I returned to my path, now faster than before because it was almost nine o'clock, the time limit to steal the computer. After crossing a wooden door I came across something strange again, the place had changed its design again, but even if that was the usual tonight, this time it left me surprised because now it was a laboratory, a high-tech laboratory, really high-tech, Led lights everywhere, computers and monitors, but even so, there were still traces of the previous rooms, beds full of blood, stasis tubes full of spinal cords or other organs, on the still stone floor you could see a path of blood that leads to a single place, whatever they did here I don't think it was very different from a meat shop. If I had learned something throughout my terrible adventures, it is that you always have to keep a clear and focused mind, no matter what is happening around you but, even I was on my nerves in this horrible place, and to top it all off, another door opened near me from where a person in a lab coat came out this time, I had him in front of me, he was about to see me, but then I heard how some kind of mechanism opened behind me. door and arms took me by surprise from behind, dragging me inside. I quickly removed them from the counter and turned around ready to shoot whoever had touched me.
