"Coming Home" By Avenged Sevenfold songfic. Since most of their songs have SOMETHING to do with war. Plus Matt (lead singer of the band) kind of reminds me of Chris. XD And of course, long days at war has to have its burdens on our favorite team. I dont own the song or band or the characters or resident evil xD
Chapter 1: Coming home
Chris and Piers huffed as they all but collapsed in the helicopter. The boys one by one settling down. Andy passed out the moment he stepped foot into the copter, not bothering to get out of his bloody, dirty gear. Ben and Carl sat back to back and Finn sat in his spot across from them and next to Andy, innocent eyes watching as the captain and lieutenant leaned against each other for support. Charlie smiled from his pot in the cockpit.
"You boys ready? You look like you went through hell and back."
"Hell yeah." Chris muttered, his head loling back against the cool metal of the heli.
"Damn, that was a close one, the team almost didn't make this one." Piers muttered.
"Well I'm glad you guys made it back in time. Let's go home and grab a few beers." Charlie cheered.
"Home..." Piers muttered, the word sounding foreign to him, an ache in his chest.
"Hoorah!" Ben cheered weakly, earning a playful nudge from Carl.
Charlie lifted them off the ground and set a course for HQ. They flew over the ocean, the sun gently setting. Piers couldn't help but get up and stare out the opening. Chris came next to him a moment later.
"You okay?"
"Yeah..."Piers mumbled. "I've just been away from home for a long time..."
"Well all the fighting is over for now."
"Yeah but you never know when we'll be called back." Carl sighed from his spot.
Most of their missions were tough, a blur of shooting and eliminating BOWs, fighting for their loves and bringing civilians and survivors to safety. All survivors were out, now they just had to waste the rest of the majini and destroy the base.
"Piers! You have a majini on your six!" Chris called out. Piers turned just in time to avoid an array of bullets. Firing a few of his own. Even firing quickly he was able to shoot it in the head and kill it.
"Thanks Captain! Watch your right!" Piers called, sparing a glance at his team. Chris made quick work of the Majini with his knife.
"Good call Piers! Finn, how are those bombs going?" Chris asked after pushing a button on his headset.
"They're coming along Captain! I just need alittle more time!" Finn called into his com device.
"Hurry the hell up I'm running low on ammo here!" Andy shouted, his slight southern accent showing through his irritation. "Why the hell do I get stuck with the rookie?"
"You were a rookie once too, Walker, and a mighty jumpy one I remember!" Ben called, taking down his fair share of Majini.
"Focus guys!" Piers scolded, killing an enemy quickly. "These guys are smart, they're working together to wear us down! I suggest we do the same!"
"Yeah no shit." Carl mumbled as a gang of shield-wielding majini walked up and one threw a grenade. He quickly moved and tackled Ben to safety just as it detonated.
"Piers we have a launcher!" Andy shouted.
Piers turned to see a Majini kneeling and ready to fire. He quickly pulled out his MP-AF and shot it in the head, stunning it long enough for him to pull out his Anti-Material Rifle and shoot it's head clean off. Piers ducked behind his captain and discarded the shell, turning back in time to see the Executioner walk up, giant bloodied ax ready.
"Uhh...Captain?" Piers asked nervously, already aiming for it's head.
"Finn! HURRY UP!" Chris yelled, backfisting a random Majini and aiming at the Executioner, Carl and Ben aiming as well.
"Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse..." Andy muttered, still shooting at the Majini.
"Carl, Ben, I need you to help Andy. Piers and I got this." The two nodded and went to Andy's side.
"Almost there..." Finn hissed, desperately trying to connect the wires. The executioner raised it's ax, but before it could Piers landed a bullet in it's skull with his rifle, quickly discarding the shell. The giant Majini stumbled back and fell.
"DONE!" Finn called, motioning everyone though the door. Everyone ran in and Finn pushed the button, bomb after bomb exploding and destroying the facility.
"A second later and we all would've been gonners." Ben muttered, wiping the sweat off his brow.
"Yeah, you really pulled through, rookie." Andy said, patting his back and smirking.
"Well done team," Chris said though huffs, turning and smirking at Piers, who was huffing as well. "Let's radio HQ."
Chris gave a sigh of his own. He knew how hard it was to have to go on these missions. He's been doing it for years, and still Jill and Claire worry about him. Sometimes he wonders if he'll find his grave on the field. The thought of his sister crying and grieving was enough for him to be determined to never meet that fate. Sighing again, Chris cleared his throat and spoke.
"Alright men, listen up." At this moment, Ben nudged Andy's foot, who groaned and wiped his face sleepily, sitting up straighter next to Finn. Chris continued.
"The war against Bioterrorism is a long hard one, almost neverending. Many good men have died to defend their homes in battle and protect the ones they love. But believe me when I say I will do everything in my power to make sure you get back home safe and sound. As long as we work as a team and do what we do best, we can keep this world and everyone in it safe."
Piers added. "No giving up, not until your dying breath. And even then we won't have none of that "final moments" crap. Everyone makes it back. Got it?"
"Yes sir!" The men cheered with unexpected energy. Even Charlie gave a cheer of his own.
Chris turned back to Piers and gave him a pat on the shoulder and a reassuring nod. Piers nodded back and focused on the water again, feeling anxious with the thought of going home.
"Hey Chris!" Charlie called.
"Yeah?" Chris answered.
"Drinks are on me this time!"
Chris smirked, "You're damn right they are. Let's go. I'm coming home."
Charlie sang loud and proud even though there was no music.
"LIVE AGAIN! ALL ROADS END! I'LL BE COMING HOME! TEND YOUR LIGHT CAUSE ON THIS NIGHT I'LL BE COMING HOME!"
The men laughed at him as Piers shook his head, feeling better, and looked out the window again at the slowly setting sun. As the copter flew off into the sunset the chorus of men could be heard singing over and over again.
"I'm coming home..."
Heres the lyrics:
"I've been away,
Searching for a reason,
Another purpose to find.
I've sailed the seas,
Fought my many demons,
I've looked to gods in the skies.
I've stood in hell,
Where many had to suffer,
I stabbed the devil in the eyes.
Walked many roads to witness ancient idols,
And found the great gates of fire.
Had many storms question my conviction,
Gave armies reason to rise.
The hangman's searching for bones he can borrow,
While I escaped in the night,
Fight or flight.
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
'Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
Escaped the hell of calculated mortals,
Then drank the blood of a king.
The desert rain has washed away direction,
Had angels looking after me,
So it seems.
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
'Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
My story ends not far from where it started,
My weary limbs have grown old.
I've seen the world through the eyes of a nomad,
Home is where the heart is I've been told,
So I go.
Live again,
All roads end,
I'll be coming home.
Tend your light,
Cause on this night,
I'll be coming home.
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home..."
