*helicopter lands*
Sheva: *hops out* It was great working with you Chris.
Chris: You to partner *shaking her hand*
Sheva: *smiles shaking her head* No. Your partner is there *pointing at Jill*
Jill: *gets up and walks over* He can have more than one partner. *smiles* Thanks for taking care of him.
Sheva: *smiles and nod*
Jill: *almost collapse*
Chris: *catches her and sits her down* let's go.
*helicopter takes off Sheva on the ground waving goodbye to them*
Jill: *looks to Chris and smiles*
Chris: *sits next to her* Well be to base soon and you can get checked out.
Jill: And shower.
Chris: *Smirks*
Jill: *punches his arm* Perv! *smirks*
Chris: I can't help it. My beautiful partner.
Jill: *looks away* I'm not beautiful. Not anymore.
Chris: You are to me.
Jill: No I'm not. Not outside or in. Chris I've done such horribly things and I barely look like I'm even alive. I look and feel dead! *eyes tearing up*
Chris: Jill . . . *goes to hug her*
Jill: Don't touch me!
Chris; *pulls back*
Jill: *crying into her knees* please just leave me alone right now.
*few hours later they land. The moment Jill steps out a bunch of doctors take her away*
Chris: Wait! *goes to chase after her*
Barry: *holding him back* Chris chill!
Chris: She just got back and there not even going to let her rest!
Barry: She'll be fine. There not going to hurt her you know they just want to help.
Chris: *walks away and sits next to the door where they brought Jill*
*few hours later Clair walked up*
Clair: How are you holding up big brother? *sitting down next to him*
Chris: Christ did they fly all you out here?
Clair: Just me, Barry, and Leon. We were all wanted to be here when you and Jill returned. Can you blame us? It's like she's back from the dead.
Chris: She is you know.
Clair: You know what I mean.
Chris: *not saying anything*
Clair: Fine stay silent but I'm not leaving your side. Someone needs to make sure you don't bust down that door.
*another hour passes and the door opens*
Doctor: *walks out*
Chris: *looks up at him* well?
Doctor: Well good news she's going to live.
Chris: Bad news?
Doctor: She's going to need to undergo a lot of treatment to get the majority of the virus out of her body.
Clair: Majority?
Doctor: Yes sadly we will not be able to remove it all.
Chris: *balling his fist*
Doctor: It won't hurt her at all.
Chris: *got up and walked away*
Clair: Chris wait!
Doctor: Let him go for now. He's going to have to let that sink in. Why don't you take Jill to shower and get ready for the trip home.
Jill: *walked out* Hey Clair.
Clair: *eyes widen at the sight of her but quickly snaps out of it* Come on Jill lets get you cleaned up and in to some normal clothes. *she leads her to the shower*
Jill: I have a weird question.
Clair: Yeah?
Jill: Do you think you could check the undercover stuff and see if there is any hair dye.
Clair: *laughs* Really?
Jill: Please Clair. I don't want to look like this anymore *eyes tearing*
Clair: I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you.
Jill: Its not you.
Clair: *sits her down, and goes to check, coming back with a box of dark brown hair dye* Would you like me to do it for you?
Jill: *nods*
Clair: *dyes Jill's hair back to normal* Your all set just go wash it off in 20 mins.
Jill: *nods*
Clair: Jill talk to me.
Jill: *just starts to cry*
Clair: *hugs her* It's ok Jill. You're safe now. Nothing going to hurt you again.
Jill: *cries into Clair's shoulder for a while*
Clair: Go shower ok. It'll make you feel better.
Jill: *nodded and stepped in to the shower, she striped off her clothes and turned on the hot water* How can they be so welcoming to me after everything I've done. *watching the dye wash down the drain and seeing her hair its old color again made her smile but only for a moment, she broke down again thinking of what she had done to Chris* Oh God Chris please forgive me!
Chris: *sitting on a rock far off from anyone* If you would have just let me die that night, if I could have protected you better you wouldn't be feeling all this hurt. Please forgive me Jill.
