“Zoey!” Wynona warily stepped away from Zoey.
She intuitively tensed up and got into a combatready mode. Obviously, after witnessing Zoey s shocking abilities, she had become scared and wary of her. She knew if Zoey were to go into that crazy mode again, she would not be able to stop her.
Okano, who was with them, had fear written all over his face, worried Zoey would freak out and kill him with a single blow.
Wynona's reaction puzzled Zoey, so she asked, “What... what is wrong, Ms. Wilcox?” There was a look of bewilderment in her eyes.
She seemed to be back to her gentle self, with no hint of the earlier hostile beast in her.
Wynona was genuinely confused and even began to wonder if she was having a hallucination earlier, and that the monster Zoey did not exist at all.
“Are... are you feeling okay, Zoey?” she anxiously asked.
“I feel fine. What's wrong? I think I had a dream, and I was fighting with someone in the dream.” Zoey was massaging her head, and trying hard to recall. She had a very vague impression but no recollection of what had happened.
Her power also seemed to have diminished drastically compared to earlier, as Wynona could not sense much energy on her. This was the Zoey she knew and was familiar with.
“Do you not remember what happened earlier?”
Wynona asked in astonishment.
“No, I can't. What happened?” Zoey questioned.
“You were engaged in a battle just now. You were fighting with... a few bad guys, and then you fainted.” Wynona came close to mentioning Levi's name, but she managed to stop herself in time. She remembered it was his name that triggered Zoey and made her go berserk.
She did not dare to say that name again in Zoey's presence, as no one would be able to stop her if she went into another crazy frenzy.
“Zoey, do you feel any discomfort?” Wynona probed.
Zoey paused to examine her own feeling, then shook her head and said, “I don't feel weird or different. Previously, I seemed to have some mental block in my mind, but that is gone! I have to thank you for bringing in those doctors to treat me!”
