A couple days later, Tracy woke up in a flash of light, ending up in a cold, metallic building with emergency lights on, and complete silence with the exception of a constant, odd humming noise coming from outside. She had a white shirt on with black jeans and white flats, leather wrist-length gloves, and a rather unusual weapon by her side. A metallic hockey stick, made of unknown metal with Enochian runes on it, glowing with pure, holy light.
She was a young woman named Minerva, one of the Lightbringers, a mortal (though in her case, no longer) human gifted with superhuman powers of holy light and fire, and immune to the supernatural disease which had turned almost every human on this planet into flesh-eating, cannibalistic undead monsters. Said 'zombies' for lack of a better word, were known to be very strong, not feel pain, not very smart and not especially fast, but they made up for their flaws with ferocity and primal instinct. The zombies were led by a small group of individuals, twelve, to be more accurate, 'Zombie Lords', other humans with supernatural abilities, including that of controlling any zombie they got their hands on at will, and thus assembling massive armies of the undead and directing them like puppet masters. There were other, non-superhuman people left, but they were few and isolated, living in fortresses and heavily defended areas, afraid of the dark and things that move by the corner of their eyes, but often armed and trained to defend themselves.
From what Tracy knew from Minerva's memories, the world was basically lost, as the popular belief that 'zombies die if you kill the Zombie Master' had been proven wrong by herself and some of her companions. A killed Zombie Master just returned to 'life', exactly like zombies themselves did.

"Well this is a downer." She said teleporting back to the ship. Not much she could do for this world... Or rather there was not much she wanted to do."
8 in Teleportation to reach the ship.

(OOC: Perhaps I explained myself poorly because of my stupid cold, lol. What I meant by 'From what Tracy knew from Minerva's memories, the world was basically lost' was, "as far as Minerva knew, the world is lost, but now that she was Tracy, she might have a say in this." The idea is, the incredibly smarter, more powerful, and more technology advanced Tracy may yet find a way to defeat the Zombie Masters and 'save the world/what's left of it'. Minerva simply tried killing them with her powers, and when that failed, she ran out of plans. Of course, you don't have to if you don't feel like it.)
As she teleported back, she arrived face to face... with one of the Zombie Masters. Ivory Skull-shaped mask, black evening dress, 5-inches pumps, black long nails, long black hair. Lady Khane, as she called herself since the zombie apocalypse, had been one of the few 'good' Zombie Masters - or rather one of the least worst - as she used her zombies mostly to solidify her power and to protect her 'people': a large city of survivors who were allowed to survive and protected by their mistress' undead army as long as they swore loyalty to and worked for her... A.k.a Jessie, after a quick dimensional merging.
"...I SWEAR I'm not turning into f*cked up people on purpose!" she said, waving her hands defensively.

(It's not that I don't think I can fix the problem it's more a matter of me not caring in particular OOC, but I'll try roleplaying this as best I can."
"Don't look at me, I think it's kinda hot." She said smirking. "In all seriousness, where the f*** are we?" She asked. "I know nothing of this series."

(OOC: Honestly, the idea was mostly having a zombie apocalypse setting where one can fight without the risk of collateral damage being a problem, and also because I kinda like zombie apocalypse settings as long as it isn't Marvel Zombies. Yuck. So many holes in that story, it's not even remotely interesting... except maybe the one with Ash from Evil Dead in it.)
"It's not a series per se, I think. Or if it is, I never watched it. I think it's a lot similar to a game setting of the RPG 'All Flesh must be Eaten'. That Zombie Masters thing sounds a lot like it anyway", Jessie said, shrugging. "Basically, it's a zombie apocalypse where some special, superpowered 'humans' are actually the ones pulling the strings of the living dead, which makes them both more dangerous, but more predictable, as they follow human orders."
She paused for a moment.
"...Even if we were to kill every zombie out there, we wouldn't save more people, though. Maybe we could just rescue the large groups of survivors?"

"Sounds like a plan... Take some of our heavy hitters and see if you can rescue a settlement or two." She said.

"Got it. Rescuing mine will be easy... my zombies will be just as obedient as the most loyal of... very, very stinky and disgusting dogs. But I still gotta be there, so... anyway, just leave it to me, I'll get a team together and send in the ships for the rescue. I just need a couple of hours, tops", she said with a smile after removing her skull mask. "See you soonâ„", she said, planting a kiss on her cheek before teleporting away.

Tracy successfully and easily detected, and teleported to a huge quantity of the walking dead, roaming in a massive, otherwise abandoned and mostly destroyed city. The living dead who were close by immediately began turning towards her and slowly, clumsily yet steadily making their way towards her, staring at her with their dead gazes, moaning and groaning as they did.

(OOC: Literally mixing the Reality Marbles' effects in one action, huh. I didn't think of that... I just thought I'd mix the actions together and have one action be capable of doing each of them. That's a really neat alternative. I like it. XD)
Tracy activated her powerful new merged Reality Marble, trapping countless zombies along with her in a massive desert with a bright, orange sky, with multiple Londonian buildings all over the place, and countless swords and weapons found in or on the ground. Additionally, Modus Operandi's homunculi soon manifested as well... soon being attacked by the undead, causing a massive panic.

"Men! Destroy all the Undead!" She ordered her soldiers as she manifested in each Hommunculous slashing and ripping them apart.
15 sup-eff in Ninja 5 shifted to defense the rest to rip apart any zombie in arm's reach.
20 in Reality Marble to use Modus Operandi to appear in the Hommunculous' bodies and destroy zombies attacking them.

(OOC: Normally, you would spend stones in the Reality Marble to actually summon the soldiers. The first stones are to form the Reality Marble and trap people in it, while the actual soldiers appear on the next panel by spending stones for it, just like you'd manifest the weapons you'd need with more stones on the next panel with Unlimited Blade Works. But anyway, I'll just count some of them stones you used to summon soldiers and the others to have you move from homonculus to homunculus. XD)
The armies of Iksandar the Great soon enough manifested at her command, roaring in support of their new champion and summoner when she spoke. Thousands of soldiers held their weapons high, ready to take the fight to their enemies. The zombies, however, barely even react to the display of solidarity from the troops. Soon enough, they charged towards the buildings, the undead and the homunculi, the sounds of battle echoing throughout the Victorian buildings!
At the same time, Tracy used Jack the Ripper's tactic and began slaughtering multiple walking dead with the legendary assassin's power, the zombies far too slow to see it coming.

20 in Reality Marble to jump from target to target via the closest homunculi.

Tracy's army of Heroic Spirits was as a tidal wave of destruction, mowing down the zombies' numbers fearlessly and without hesitation, losing the usual human disadvantage of fearing death that most people who fought zombies suffered from, and thus becoming far more effective against them... not even mentioning their superior physical might! Her army advanced on the victorian city she had manifested, severing limbs, chopping off heads, trampling the walking dead under their boots.
Meanwhile, Tracy was swiftly annihilating any zombie with the misfortune of getting too close to one of her homunculi, thinning out their numbers even faster...
"ENOUGH!!" a male, deep voice yelled from atop a nearby building, angrily. "What is the meaning of this madness?!"
