47 The Storm.

I looked around me to see a normal looking modern area.

I then saw who was with me. Orochimaru, Riza Hawkeye and Zabuza, all in normal, modern versions of what they were originally wearing.

"W-where are we?" Zabuza asked confused, he was wearing some casual clothes, a white shirt and jeans with sneakers. But, he still had the giant sword and bandages on his face, making him stand out.

"I don't know Zabuza," Orochimaru said, he was wearing a dark green jacket with a black shirt underneath, black pants and boots, but he still had his long black hair and pale skin with a katana at his waist, also making him stand out.

"Sir, do you know where we are?" Riza asked, she was wearing a dark blue jacket with a white shirt, dark blue pants and black combat boots, with a revolver holstered at her waist.

"I think I may have accidentally transported us to another world..." I said with a grin.

I then looked at what I was wearing to see that it was quite different, I was now wearing a red shirt and blue jeans with white and red sneakers, I also had some combat gloves on my hands with a combat knife at my waist, I then noticed that my hair was a bit different too, instead of it being naturally spiky and blood red, it now looked like it was artificially spiked up and a dark orange.

"Okay... so, what sort of world is this?" Orochimaru asked, being calm and collected.

"A world where the dead walk the earth... oh yeah, and we only have the strength of average humans... so, we won't be able to rely on that..." I said in an annoyed tone.

"Well, that might not be too bad, as it'd make it easier to blend in, wouldn't it sir?" Riza asked.

"Yes, it will... now, I may know what's going to happen... there's going to be a truck coming along within a timespan of a few minutes to a few hours, we just have to wait..." I said with a smile.

"Okay then, let's hold up in this place," Zabuza said, as he pointed toward a drugstore which just had the word "DRUGS" in bright red neon.

"Okay then... let's go," I said, as I began to walk toward the drugstore, "I'm pretty sure there are a couple of people in there though... but, it won't be that bad, as they're mostly good people"

We walked up to the gate of the drugstore, and I began to knock on it.

"Hello? Anyone inside?" I asked with a grin on my face.

I then heard some voices from inside the drugstore.

"We can't let them in, what if they kill us and **** the women!" One man with a hoarse voice shouted angrily.

"They can help us! Look at that guy Larry, he's built like a truck! And that woman has a gun! They could be helpful" Another man shouted.

"They're thugs! What if-" Larry shouted, before getting cut off by someone.

"Fuck it! I'm letting them in!" A woman shouted, interrupting Larry, and walked to the door behind the gate to open it.

"Quickly, get in before those things hear us!" The woman said, as she opened the gate.

"Thanks!" I said, as I walked into the drugstore, "I'm... Tom, these guys are Zabuza, Orochimaru and Riza"

"Okay, I'm Carley, that's Glenn, Doug, Larry and that's his daughter Lily, it's nice to meet you," Carley said with a smile.

"Yeah, nice to you too... once again, thanks Carley," I said with a smile.

'Hey, System... I have a couple of questions' I thought.

[What are the questions you would like answered?] The System asked.

'Okay, well the first one is... is this like the hyperbolic time chamber where a year here is a day out there? do we get to keep our abilities? And, at the end of this... do I get a reward or something like that?' I mentally asked the system.

[Yes, no and yes. The Cross-World Teleportation is almost exactly similar to the hyperbolic time chamber, you and your summons cannot use your abilities, but if you survive until the end of the first two seasons, you will be rewarded based on your performance] The system answered.

'Okay, that's good... at least I won't worry Launch and everyone else...' I thought with a smile creeping up on my face.

'One last question, what would happen if my summons or I died here?' I asked the System.

[If you die, you die. But, if your summons die, they will be returned to the summoning space, but they will not be allowed to return here] The System answered

'Oh, okay. Thanks' I thanked the system in my mind.

As I was thinking, we heard the sound of a vehicle stopping and some people talking.
