《The One Luna》Picking Up The Two Siblings
Advertisement
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.
"They're not any better. When Luna's parents died when he was young, they all scrambled to compete for their property, in the guise of being Luna's guardian." Boni clenched his fist, he knew that despite all that's happened in his life, Luna was still a kind individual to those he knew deserved it, but he was no fool either, he knew how to scheme when needed, and he knew how to spot a scheme or when someone wasn't sincere towards him.
"So how did he manage to keep everything?" Sura was even more curious about Luna now, how could a young kid not lose everything to such malicious family members? She knew she wouldn't have been able to do the same, the Asura as a race was straightforward and focused on getting stronger to obtain more benefits. Sura was one of the few who actually set aside time to study the new world she was going to be summoned into, during her free time.

"Hehe. Those who underestimate Luna, will surely meet an ugly end." Boni wore a proud smile on his face, which showed his admiration for his friend. "He didn't go too far into detail as he doesn't like to brag, but in the end, his relatives were left with nothing, even losing much of their wealth in the process."
"Alright guys, let's head out!" Just as the two were deep in conversation, Luna and the two siblings were appeared by the gate, and were heading towards the truck. "This is Mabini, and his little sister Apple, their father was Mr. Linario, our professor in college." he introduced the two.
"I'm sorry for your loss. I'm Boni, this is Sura" Boni gave them his condolences and introduced themselves as well.
"Thank you, nice to meet you." they replied, as they were stunned for a moment after seeing Sura, who would have known that one of the people that saved them was such a stunning beauty, they just didn't notice her earlier due to the situation they were in.
After arriving back at Luna's place, they drove the truck into his huge driveway and started unloading the supplies. Boni then proceeded to explain what they've learned so far on top of what was in the intro manual, to the two siblings.
"Apple's a real genius. Even during High School, she was already studying to be a lawyer, on top of being a national champion in Chess!" Mabini couldn't help but be enthusiastic when talking about his little sister's achievement.
"Manong! You're embarrassing me!" Apple on the other hand, couldn't help but cover her face as she blushed.
"Hahaha! You should be happy to have such a supportive older brother!" Boni couldn't help but appreciate the closeness of these two siblings.
As they were talking to each other, they heard Luna and Sura coming down from upstairs.
"Luna, did you find anything out?" Boni's countenance changed to a more serious one.
"It's bad, I have the current events pulled up on my PC. All of you, follow me to my gaming room, you'll have to see this for yourselves." Luna turned around as the other three followed. They knew that all these strange things that they've witnessed so far, was just the beginning. When the they saw all the reports Luna had pulled up on all six of his monitors, their mouths couldn't help but drop.
