Silas paused for a moment, then said, "Good. Then come to the military office. They'll be waiting for you there."
"Alright," Ivy answered quickly. She hung up and hurried toward the exit.
But halfway there, she froze. Her eyes widened as a terrible thought struck her.
'Wait… the base. Without me here, it's not safe. My power is what protects this place. If I leave, the people inside will be exposed.'
She clenched her fists tightly.
'I can't leave them unprotected. What do I do? What if zombies attack while I'm gone?'
Her mind raced. Suddenly, she remembered the hidden feature she hadn't checked yet. Quickly, she opened her temporal storage and entered the interface.
The moment she saw the new feature, her jaw dropped. Her heart leaped with excitement.
"Unbelievable!" she gasped. "It… it's exactly what I need right now!"
The feature description was clear. She could extend her safe zone superpower to cover items and structures that were inside her temporal storage.
