You already have a reference to the player when player_ref is not null. So, in kill_enemy(), you can set player_ref.global_position = global_position.

what exactly would global_position be? would it be the center position of my current object?
I have a timer in another scene that runs, when I go to the center, I want to stop that timer, how do I do that? I have to have a reference to that timer somehow and stop it, but how?

Is the other scene the area 2d? If so you can do something like.
Player.up_timer.stop()

I would have a signal in an auto-loaded script that all the enemies can connect to and stop the timer. And when the player reaches the center you can emit that signal.
is better than trying to have multiple node referencing each other

Player.up_time...
look at the print
I have an "area2d" scene and an "enemy" scene which is a characterbody2d, I need to stop the enemy timer in the area2d script
