"You are… no…" Zach raised his brow in confusion and asked, "Who are you? I feel like I have seen you before but at the same time… I cannot remember you. You know me so… have we met before?"
"My name is Zendeya!"
"Uhh… that's not helping. How do you know me?"
"School!"
"Oh! Right. You are my underclassman. Umm… we met in the principal's office after I got into trouble. And you were there for… to get permission for a leave?"
"Yes!"
"Oh, okay. Fancy meeting you here… like really. What are you doing here? And by here, I mean, in this guild or rather in Elliott's chamber? You were tied, so obviously, you were not here by your choice."
After looking at Zendeya's condition, Zach smiled at her and patted her shoulders to reassure her.
"You don't have to answer. You are safe now," he said calmly.
"But that thing was going to kill me."
"Yeah… forgive him," he sighed in disappointment. "Anyway, can you get up now?"
