Chapter 223 Moving To The Next Step
Most of the army's attention was being directed at the final demon and the rescue missions. Now that there were fewer demons, they were more free to move to get to the others. This worked to the Reborn group's advantage.
They fell back and a group approached them asking if they were okay. All of them answered and then shrugged them off and went towards the closest vehicle. It was a large truck that had a few soldiers on top with their guns out, carefully aimed at the demon.
X lifted up his hand and put his thumb up, that was the signal for all of them to act. Quickly, all of those in the bomb squad suits jumped on board at the back. Meanwhile, Z had used his strength to force the door open, breaking the lock, then pulling the driver out and throwing him to the ground.
"What is going on?" the soldier said, confused.
At the top, as soon as Zain had climbed on board, he ran forward and grabbed the two guns, pulling them hard, breaking the strap and throwing them to the ground. Straight after Kelly was by his side, throwing the two of them off to the side.
"Hold on!" X shouted, as the engine of the vehicle was turned on, and it was revving hard as the car spun around and headed straight for the gate, they were going to crash their way out of the place.
"Sir, the bomb squad along with the captured Zain are escaping!" One of the men shouted, and lifted his gun ready to fire at the wheels of the vehicle.
Before he could pull the trigger though, he had been hit by his side, and arched over, firing out bullets but completely missing the vehicle.
"What are you doing kid, why are you getting in my way!" the soldier shouted.
The kid in question was one of the civilians they had brought in, it was Cody, and barging into the soldier wasn't an accident at all.
Still the man ignored the teeneager and lifted up his gun again and now a few others that had noticed lifted their gun up as well.
"Let them go!" General Begal shouted. "It's because of them in the first place that we were able to get rid of two of those things. We should concentrate on finishing off the last one, and on our own people."
The soldiers placed their guns down, as they witnessed the large vehicle crash right through the metal gate, and continue to drive off in the distance.
"We made it, we really made it out of all of that." Pink said, falling to the floor, and just sitting there. Seeing the demons again, it was tough for her. The last time she had met with one, not just her, but her whole team was completely overpowered by them.
Without the others, if she saw one again, then she would have been too frightened to move.
"It was a success." Kun said. "We managed to find Zain, bring him out of there, and all without losing one of us. We can finally put our guard down a bit."
Although Kun said that, Zain didn't feel the same way, and one could tell by his reactions. In the car, nearly everyone was on one side, while the rest were on the other side, including Sid.
"I'm sorry, although I agreed to join your group, I didn't mean I was actually joining your group. I just have some questions of my own, and I would like some information. If I'm not happy with what you tell me, well then I'll just leave." Zain explained.
Sid knew that Zain was strong, and the problem was with having a strong Reborn zombie like this, it meant that they could back up their words with action.
"I'm Sid, and the person driving is X, although I could tell you a few things here and there, we probably couldn't answer all the questions that you have. The best thing to do is to head to the Reborn group, where our leader Sarah will answer your questions the best." Sid explained calmly.
The fact that Kelly, Kun, and Pink were here, and had come out on this mission to save him was a plus for the Reborn group. If they allowed them to do this, then they weren't so controlling like many other groups and that was one of the worries for Zain.
He wanted to do things his way, not under someone else, who he didn't really understand.
"This Sarah person, is she a researcher, blonde hair, blue eyes, with a thin small nose?"
Zain remembered from some of his visions, the girl Sarah that was in it couldn't be a coincidence.
"Yes... have you met her before?" Sid asked, now a little confused.
Zain didn't answer his question but decided to sit down, showing his willingness to follow them, at least for now. He felt like he was close and with this Sarah person, he could find out how all this zombie mess started in the first place, what were the demons and why was he like what he was.
Why did he become a Reborn, why did he have a system? What were the demons, and was there a way they could end this all, a way to turn back those that had been turned?
The journey in the vehicle continued and eventually it stopped. There was the border that they had to get past, and they were now going through the secret path that the Reborn group used.
It was an unfinished subway station, while walking through it though, Zain had received a ding from his system, and it had brightened his mood.
