Level up Zombie

After hearing the words Reborn group, Zain had immediately asked the others about what they knew. It turned out it wasn't very much. All they had seen were large painted signs written in white.

It stated that if you were part of the Reborn group to head in a certain direction but there was no place written, or directions, instead there would just be a large arrow that would point in a particular direction.

So far they had been following the white arrows, because it was also in the same direction of another location, where the Zombie Hunters were. News had already spread that they were people who had special abilities.

Apparently this Zombie Hunter group would come, display their powers, get rid of the zombies, and then continue on. They wouldn't invite those that they saved, or ask them for anything in return after saving them.

It was certainly a strange thing, it was as if they were there for one thing and one thing only, to eliminate the zombies.

The group was happy to tell Zain the details and everything that he needed to know. After all they had just been saved by him, but based on his lack of knowledge of these two things, it became clear that he wasn't part of either of the two groups which was why his next words seemed a little bit strange to them.

"I think it would be best if you headed to the Zombie Hunters." Zain said. "Like you said, I'm not sure if they will let you in or not, but if you are looking for a place to go,  the Reborn group isn't one. They aren't for people like you."

Most likely, Zain believed the Reborn group would be for those like Shark, or for those like himself. Humans that had been turned into zombies, that still had a consciousness that could still speak.

"So... I'm guessing with your strength, you would be trying to join the Zombie Hunters then?" Nit asked. "I won't ask what your powers are but you must have something to be able to take on a creature like that."

"No." Zain replied instantly. "I was just giving some advice, I have no intention of going to the Zombie Hunters. I will be going my own way."

If Zain admitted he was heading to where the arrows were pointing, to the Reborn group, he felt like the others would attempt to follow him. Explaining to them, that it was a place for zombies, even if it was just a theory, it would be hard for anyone to believe.

"So I guess, that means this is where our two sides split then." Nit stated.

"Wait!" Dali said, as he looked at his younger brother Wiz, who was frightened. He was holding onto his shoulders and when hearing that Zain wouldn't be travelling with them, his body already started to shake.

"I know it's not right for us to ask, but if I don't ask then I might regret it for the rest of my life. I know you have no intention of joining the Zombie Hunters, but could you escort us there at least. It won't have to be all the way. Just part way until we get out of most trouble."

Immediately, the glow in the other's eyes could be seen a bit brighter. They too would have much preferred if Zain was to help them. However, for Zain this was an incredibly risky thing to do. He had already crossed with the Zombie Hunters once before, and without a doubt if they ever found out what he was... then they would attempt to capture him just like they had done before.

'The Reborn group might also be a dangerous place for me to go. If I can, I would like to be as strong as I can before heading there. The biggest priority is getting a new set of weapons, and then new territories.' Zain thought.

"I can agree to your deal, but there is something that I need from you guys as well." Zain stated. "I need for you to defeat two Stage 2 zombies. Evolved ones, if you are confused by those words. I can help you, but you guys are the ones that need to finish them off, and the crystal inside of their bodies, it needs to go to me."

The others looked at each other, it was a really strange request. What could a person do with the crystals that came from the zombies bodies? At the same time, Zain was asking them to risk their lives fighting, but he would be by their side.

"Okay, I think it's a fair deal. On the way to the Zombie Hunters we will get those crystals for you, after that we will part ways." Dali said, as he put his hand out.

Zain looked at it for a few seconds, out of everyone here Dali had seen the most of what Zain could do. Controlling zombies... yet he was still willing to take his help.

For some reason, whenever Zain found someone who wasn't scared of his true self right now, he wished to help them a bit, but his survival mode kicked in. Since there was something that the two of them could get out of this deal, he decided to agree as he shook the other's hand.

'His hands... they're really cold.' Dali thought.

The group went off, heading to where the Zombie Hunters' base was, and while heading there Zain started to think. It was a strange place, there was the military, the Reborn group, meteors, demons, zombies, Dark Zombies, and the Zombie Hunters.

All of these different groups had been created out of this apocalypse and where did he fit in to all of this, and what would happen at the end of it all. Why did such a thing come to be in the first place?

'Let's upgrade my weapons... and come out on top of all these groups. Just like in those games, I will come out on top in the real world as well.' Zain inwardly smiled to himself.
