The group of six could be seen running across, rushing across the dome. They were all grouped together. Violet at the flank, Aurora at the front, Lita, Kylo and their mother in the middle.

The cries around them made things much harder for them to take in.

A path of ice trailed ahead of them which they followed. With the light being emitted from the lady, Aurora and Violet could aim at the zombies which drew to close.

Gray was outside of the formation, clearing the path ahead of them whilst also making sure to deal with any zombies which would end up getting too close to them. He would [Pause Step] above them slicing off their heads.

Lita who had running in the middle of the group. Was calling the paths for them to take, using her [Prophecy] Ability, she could predict where they would encounter the most zombies.

Although it was Lita doing the things however, it felt like a completely different person had taken over her. Expression still and her eyes were closed shut as she ran. This concerned her mother deeply but she hadn't mentioned any of it yet.

Her daughter was acting completely different from her emotional self a while ago after they had managed to get Aurora and Violet.

"A group of survivors engaged in combat will be encountered if we take a left." Said Lita.

Although he was far ahead of the group, Gray heard it clearly. They all waited for his decision as they continued to run. Their mother wanted to voice her opinion but she knew it would be rude as she was practically relying on Gray for their survival

Whilst Gray had said he didn't care about others, he still considered it deeply, in the middle of combat. He didn't have much time to think and he needed to prioritise their safety.

Evolving had made him way more stronger physically, far stronger than a regular human at this point, but pause was still an incredibly draining skill. So he made the safest decision.

"We're already on the path towards the entrance, we moved ahead. We don't know if they've been infected. The safest option is to move ahead." Said Gray as he suddenly appeared ahead of the group.

Although not all of them were content with the reply, they knew where he was coming from, so they nodded and kept going. Doing their best to ignore the screams for help.

While running with all he had, Gray dashed past a zombie ahead of him, decapitating it in a single motion, before sliding down beneath the legs of the following zombie, cutting off its legs before pause stepping above it and decapitating it in the process.

[Slay: 50/50 Zombies]

Not long had passed before they had reached the entrance. Quite a few people could already be seen there. They were attacking the metal door trying to break it open.

Some were even ability, one was a fire ability user who had been unleashing a barrage of flames against the zombies and the metal door to melt it. He was simply draining himself however as this main door was more reinforced than the previous one. At least thanks to his flames, they could see the surroundings as it lit everything up.

"Damn it, why the fuck did they make it so hard!?" He cursed.

Then came Gray and his group following behind. Without pause stepping, Gray increased his momentum and speed whilst running as he rotated his body backwards, clenching his fist in preparation for a punch.

"Move out of the way!" Gray yelled out.

The people who saw him, assumed he had a super power ability and did as he was told.

*WHAM!*

Gray's fist landed right in the middle of the metal doors. Not even a creak could be heard, despite all that build up. The disappointment was apparent on their faces, as Gray unleashed a barrage of high-speed punches.

Although the punches were fast, not even a scrape could be seen on the molting red metal. It was clear with each punch that Gray was only injuring himself, as blood began to drip out of his burnt knucles. But he kept going.

"OI!! WE DONT HAVE TIME FOR THIS! IF YOU CAN'T BREAK IT THEN GET OUT OF THE WAY!"

"YEAH EXACTLY!!"

"IIM NOT TRYING TO DIE TODAY!"

[Unpause]

*CLANG-CLANG-CLANG-CLANG"*

The sound of metal colliding against each other, resounded across the room, as air burst woards out towards them, silencing them all up.

In that instant, Dents began forming around the metal door where Gray had punched, they were all concentrated in one specific point. A split second after, a hole split open in that specfic point on the door as a result of Gray's attacks.

The loud groan of a burning zombie could be heard as it ran up to the first man who had shouted.

You were saying?" Gray asked with a smile, decapitating the zombie in that very same second whilst he waited for his team to cross through.

"Eh-Ah... Nothing..." Said the others as if waiting for them to pass so they could pass thorugh.

After breaking through the quarantine area which had been empty, they finally made it outside. The fresh air filled their nostrills as the group of all the people could be seen.

They had closed off the holes they had come from using Violet's telekenesis power and Gray's pausing ability. There were around fifteen of them in total. Six from Gray's group and another nine.

Their eyes were all focused, on the countless zombies which stood ahead of them. Fear and nervousness could be seen on their faces as they realised that the zombies had gotten through.

What scared them even more however, as the large muscular zombie which was currently charging at them. It's body three times the size of a regular person but it's head the size of a regular humans, making it incredibly unproportional.

The one who stepped up to deal with this giant monstrosity was Gray.
