Nobody sent for you.
To be honest, this is the best advice.
I think you have been done a disservice twice. First, you pledged a fraternity that eventually dissolved. Second, your friends allowed you to participate in Greek traditions even though you're not really part of Greek life.
If you are a ghost or renegade of the fraternity you pledged, I think it would be best to contact that fraternity (if it is national) and tell them that you'd like to continue your experience with that fraternity as an alumnus, and ask them to give you options. The options might be anything from "Sorry champ, we don't know you" to "We'd like to rectify this for you and invite you to alumni initiation." Who knows?
If I were your friends, I probably would neither support an underground fraternity idea nor inviting you to my own fraternity.
I just don't feel right with you participating in these traditions without the credentials.

No offense to any other member, you all gave great advice, but thank you Sen, you make a very great point. At UCI, it is not uncommon to have underground fraternities, however, these underground frats are "infamous" because they are underground for certain despicable reasons.
With that said, I know many people of the AGC (the term UCI students call Asian Greek Orgs) and if I were to make an underground frat, I wouldn't seem "infamous" at all.
Taking into account what everyone said, I also asked all of my friends about it, and they said to go for it! It wouldn't hurt, and I might possibly be even able to make it an open frat and pledge people I like from other schools. I'm not sure how far this would go, but I might just do it.
Thank you so much everyone, please keep replying if there is more advice to give.
