RE:BORN Zombie

“Go get your master down here, it’s time to leave for her organization. Don’t make me wait.” Victor said as he sent Vince off.

Vince almost disappeared from where he stood as he left towards Werzelya’s room. Victor wandered about the place in his own pace as he waited for Vince to be back with Werzelya. He wasn’t really the no nonsense kill after disrespect type, it was mostly just an act. If he does get irritated however, now that’s a different case, or if the situation calls for it.

Before Victor took ten steps however, Werzelya was already standing before him, dressed and all. He was really not expecting this outcome, as he took her for the clumsy and unreliable type. ‘Did I miss judge her before?’ Victor thought to himself. He already sensed her coming since she exited her room, so he wasn’t surprised by her sudden appearance.

“WEL-WELCOME BACK CROW SIR!” She said, with a bit of uncertainty as she said so. She didn’t even look at Victor when greeting and kept her face down. Victor however, didn’t stop to receive her greetings and just walked passed her.

“Let’s get going.” He said in a normal tone.

He noticed her state of nervousness and uncertainty when she spoke, and now that she was walking. He couldn’t help but think of the possibility that she had planned something ahead of time while he was away, ‘that’s definitely a possibility.’

He did show her a bit of his strength, so she must have feared and reported it back to the organization, and now they had planned to eliminate him. ‘I can’t blame her if that’s what she had done. But, I will have to kill her then.’ Victor thought to himself. He will leave it as is till he confirms the situation. He might have just been overreacting.

Surprisingly enough, though more like unexpectedly, Werzelya had a craft somewhere beneath her house. The design and build of this one was very different from the ones Victor had seen up until now. Boarding the aircraft, they travelled towards the location where the HQ of the organization was.

.

.

It took about an hour of them flying before they got to the place, and they weren’t flying leisurely at all, and one has to note just how far off the place was from civilization.

The way the world was currently, more than half of it had been taken over by whatever monsters spawned from dungeon outbreaks in the area. If the land on earth were to be taken in percentage, out of hundred percent, what was left and occupied by the humans was just over 30%, and those figures were not good at all considering the fact that creatures like the vampires were around, and their major staple is of course, the human society. The rest of the land that covered the earth was just a scene out of a post apocalyptic era, and some places looked even worse.

All of that stood, and the waters of the earth had yet to be mentioned. Last the humans checked, the seas and oceans were a no go area, as the crews sent out never return, not even once. Humans had always preferred to know what was in space and what existed light years away from the earth, but none of them cared about what existed in the depths of the ocean. With the availability of aircrafts of different designs and uses however, the humans didn’t need to venture into the oceans anymore, what was there could just remain there.

When Werzelya’s craft which also carried Victor got close to the HQ, Victor could immediately see the brilliant work that was done on the place. There was some kind of illusion over the area of mountain, but somehow, not even Victor himself knew that he could see passed illusions so easily, but he could.

The entrance, after breaching the illusion looked like an enormous gate, not even a door, that was made of some kind of metal. The gats were at least 50 metres in height, and 20 metres wide. Seeing it made Victor wonder just what could have made them build something like it. It was just a telling sign that they had some kind of machine or weapon that needed that big a gate to pass through. ‘If anything, this is the best knowledge from all the movies and anything fictional I’ve ever read or seen.’ Victor said in his mind.

As they approached, their aircraft had slowed down a bit, and Werzelya moved towards Victor until she was close enough to him before she said.

“We have arrived. There is a high ranked illusion skill cast over the main entrance, so you may not be able to see it yet, but-” Before she could finish however, Victor cut her off.

“You mean we won’t be passing through those thick metal gates?” Victor asked. He wasn’t really curious; he just wanted to show that he could see through the illusion or barrier, whatever it was.

‘He can see it?!’ Werzelya thought in her mind as her head immediately snapped towards the gates to see if the illusion had been lifted, not like it normally would be. Even she couldn’t see beyond the illusion.

‘And they call it a high rank skill. Even I can tell its low ranked.’ Victor said in his mind as he began thinking just how much different his power is to everything else.

Just like that, the aircraft swerved towards the side of the mountain where a more realistic sized gate for an aircraft opened and they entered. The gates were also made of metal, and they met vertically at the centre of the construct.

Their craft moved smoothly into the hanger where Victor could see other crafts being kept.

When they landed and everything was in place, Werzelya and Victor came down from the craft, and Victor allowed her lead the way, since it would seem too weird if he knew the layout of the place. Even though he could clearly see it using his map, he didn’t know which side was which, so there was also that, and in case this was a trap, he wanted to stand behind Werzelya.

“They can track objects that approach this mountain and identify them, so they should know of our arrival already.” Werzelya said as they walked down the craft.

“You’ve contacted them already, so they should be coming to meet use, any moment from now.” Victor said. Obviously, he could see a group of people approaching their location, so it was easy to guess.

‘He already knows that I had informed them already…’ Werzelya thought to herself in a bit of shock.

Just then, as the stairs that extended from the stairs of the aircraft retracted back into the craft, a group of five people came into view as they entered the hanger.

As Victor looked at the approaching figures, he couldn’t help but think to himself, ‘I can’t seem to shake this Batman-Justice League vibe from this meeting.’
