Zero bolted up quickly and took a quick glance at his surrounding. he was tucked into his straw mattress with a moth-eaten blanket draped over him. It didn't take long for the apprentice know where he was.
"Wait, what? How?" Zero blurted out, confused as a fish.

"It's alright, Zero. You're safe now."
