As confused as Zack was about what Terra had been trying to tell him, what he did know was that the kid was definitely genuine. Everything he was saying was true, at least to him, which either meant Zack was missing memories or something weird was going on. Anything seemed possible at the moment, as this place had been teaching him that there was nothing he could take for granted. That shadow last night had known things it shouldn't have. For all he knew, this sort of situation was possible too, and he was just glad that Terra didn't hold it against him too much.
It was probably something else he would be better off bringing up on the bulletin rather than trying to puzzle out himself. He just hoped that Terra took care of himself when he headed out, but it seemed clear that the teen had no interest in sticking around in their room. That was fine with Zack, so long as he was smart about it.
Still, as much as he might want to, he couldn't bring him along to the basement. It wasn't the sort of place anyone should go on their first night, and he doubted Aidou would be too pleased if he showed up with a tag-along.
Shaking his head up at the intercom once the announcement had tied up (did that guy ever get sick of talking?), Zack then grabbed for his pry bar and his flashlight. He didn't paint the most threatening picture at the moment, but that didn't matter. He just had to make sure that he actually did some damage with what he had if they ran into anything. His materia, as usual, was placed into his pocket. It hadn't done that much good against the zombies, but there was always the chance that he'd run across something that was weak to lightning.
"All right, I'm off. Be careful," he told Terra once more. "We'll talk more tomorrow, okay?" He wanted to apologize again, but in the end he realized that he hadn't really done anything wrong. If anything, the institute was probably responsible. So, after waving to the boy, Zack walked through their door and started on his way.
