You're not recalling CombatAI() in Respawn().

loading Story.dme
loading Skin.dmf
Procs.dm:29:error: src.CombatAI: undefined proc

Story.dmb - 1 error, 0 warnings (double-click on an error to jump to it)

I think the problem is that is for enemies only but how do i call it for the enemies in the respawn

Still not working i even switched the respawn to mob/enemies/proc/respawn

The problems are not the Object ones which is very weird

In response to Dr.Penguin
You still consider the enemy dead until after you call the proc, call the proc AFTER you set the isDead variable to FALSE.

Not the problem i think the problem is around here

mob/Enemies/proc/CombatAI()
    while(src)
        if(src.isDead == TRUE)
            return
        for(var/mob/player/M in oview())
            if(get_dist(src,M)<=1)
                src.dir=get_dir(src,M)
                src.attack()
            else
                step_to(src,M)
            break
        sleep(rand(4,8))

One problem I see there is abuse of usr. You might not have seen it, since it's not there, but the view() procs are evil in the way they have usr as the center by default.
// what you see:
oview()

// what I see:
oview(world.view, usr)

// what you need:
oview(src)
