For a while Kelly felt like she was alone in this new world. She had moved to a new city, far away from her family in the countryside to work at the university for the first time. She hadn't been teaching long and hadn't made any friends, and then all of this had happened.
The closest person she could call a friend in this new world was Cody and after leaving him, she didn't have a clue how he was doing, or what he was doing. In the end, she had somewhat started to trust Zain and now he was gone as well.
Which was why joining the Reborn group was a scary thought for her but seeing certain people in the same place, it brought her comfort, a comfort she never thought she would have. Kelly didn't even know Kun or Pink that well, other than the brief moment they had met each other.
But in this place, where she felt alone again, she had someone that she could speak to. Since it looked like Kelly already knew Kun and Pink, the person who was meant to show her the ropes had decided it was best for the two of them to do so instead, and that's exactly what they did.
She had spent an entire day at the Reborn group, and thanks to just general observations as well as Kun and Pink, Kelly had learned quite a bit about the place. For one, the Reborn group were encouraged to fight each other quite a bit.
There would be sessions where the Reborn would train, using weapons and testing out their capabilities and strength. Kelly had seen some crazy healing capabilities, as well as other unnatural things, but they were also things she had seen before.
However, none of them had a skill that was similar to Zain's one that would allow him to control others, or one that would allow him to summon zombies seemingly out of nowhere. On top of that, a lot of the Reborn zombies would fight outside of the training sessions as well.
They were always fighting for something, what their goal was or the entire goal of the Reborn group was unclear.
According to Kun and Pink, each individual would get scattered information. At the same time, there would be times where different groups with their leaders would be assigned different jobs and the jobs truly did vary from anything.
The one that knew all and was controlling everything was Sarah, the researcher she had seen before, just like Kelly, a lot of the Reborn zombies trusted her, and that was mainly because she had answers to the many problems and questions they had.
Why were their bodies stiffening up, was there a way for them to survive without eating brains. As for Kelly's own research, Sarah did drop by briefly to inform her that only after she had settled in a bit more, that she would start running some tests on her.
After a full day, it was time for them to get some rest, and although zombie's didn't really sleep, they were trained to go in a meditative state that would allow their bodies to last longer. One of the other Reborn members kindly had moved and cleared out their room so Kelly was able to stay next to Kun and Pink, and during the night, they didn't waste time coming over to her.
"I never thought... I would see you in here." Kun finally said, as he sat on the one bed next to Pink, while allowing Kelly to sit on the chair in the room.
"Trust me, I never thought that I would be here either." Kelly stated. "Things just changed so much and happened so fast."
"Well, now that you're here, why don't you explain, how did you even get here in the first place?" Pink asked. "What happened to that young boy you travelled with?"
Pink always liked Cody, he was a human that had helped her quite a bit, and she would be willing to help him out again if he was in trouble.
"We split ways." Kelly answered. "It was after I found out I had powers, that I was more like you guys, that I ended up looking for answers. I felt like it was unfair for Cody to travel around with someone like me. Sooner or later, he would only get hurt."
Although some would say Kelly's actions were strange, Pink could understand because she felt the same way with her parents as well. They could never find out the truth and if they did, then she would attempt to stay away from them as much as possible.
"How did you guys get here anyway, I thought you were looking for Zain?" Kelly asked, quickly changing the subject.
"We never did find Zain, but we did run into another person from the Reborn group." Kun explained. "They told us about this place, and I already had some knowledge about this place, so they agreed to send us here for now. I thought there might be a chance Zain was here as well, but there was no luck."
"Wait." Kelly raised an eyebrow. "This was in the city? But how did you get to the Reborn group? How did you manage to get through the barriers?"
"It was because of Fry." Pink answered. "In one of the subway stations North of the city you can get out of the city. The subway station was still in development so I guess they thought just nobody would use it, but it allowed us to get through the borders."
"Really!" Kelly seemed excited but her face quickly dropped after. "If I had known that, then maybe Zain wouldn't have been caught."
Kun stood up, as soon as he heard these words and looked at Kelly.
"What did you say, you were with Zain?! Why didn't you say anything sooner, and not just that, what do you mean he was caught!"
