5 Picking Up The Two Siblings (1/2)

After picking up all the supplies they needed, the group luckily found the keys for the parked truck outside, after breaking into the security booth. With Sura's new weapons, slicing the door open wasn't too much of an issue.

One of the things that Luna wanted to do, was to try and find survivors, including the siblings he saw earlier. The main reason he didn't want to bring them with him was because they were in a state where their emotional stability would be a liability, that and Luna did not have the luxury of protecting someone while fighting zombies.

”Bro, after we spot some survivors, we should try and contact some of our friends.” Boni suggested. The reason why they didn't do it earlier, was because they had felt the utmost urgency to strengthen themselves. As long time MMORPG players, they knew that the beginning of an MMORPG, was where you should go hard in leveling and collecting resources.

Those who fall behind would usually fall prey to any player-killers, which in this new world, would mean permanent death. This was real life, after all, even if it now had the leveling system, death was still death... or rather, death meant zombification.

”We're here, this is the house those two were in earlier.” Luna slowed down the truck to a halt and stopped in front of a small blue gate. Sura and Boni stayed behind to keep watch outside, while Luna went to check on the two siblings.

They had calmed down some, after moving to the living room, unable to look at the two dead zombies that were once their parents. Luna noticed this detail, and figured out that the spawned zombies, when killed, would fade away, while the people who were infected, wouldn't. Luna offered the two the opportunity to follow him to his stronghold, to which they agreed.

”Thank you Manong*, we'll pack our things and we'll be set to leave.”

Meanwhile, outside, Boni and Sura were talking.

”Boni?” Sura asked in a gentle tone, something she usually wouldn't do, if it weren't for the fact that she knew Boni was Luna's best friend.

”Sura?” Surprised that Sura would initiate a conversation, Boni was caught off-guard a bit, but still manage to reply.

”Why aren't you guys looking for your parents? I noticed there wasn't anybody else in Luna's house earlier.”

”Ah.. Luna, he.. he lost his parents in a plane crash, some people speculated it was a plot, but there wasn't enough proof.”

”What about his relatives?” Sura became even more curious. It seems like Luna's family issues might were far more complicated at first glance.
