Chapter 1: Vacation Time Ruined
The year is 2001
After the events of New York the group led by Jason moved to yet another safe house.
Their new safe house was a secluded, abandoned beach front property, allowing them to live an anonymous life of semi-luxury, while staying on guard for Umbrella's next move. On this day however, they found themselves reunited with another member of the group, who had been separate from them for some time. In addition to this; they would soon make a discovery that would change the course of their fight against Umbrella, forever.
An Asian man; aged forty, with short black hair, black eyes and a muscular build was driving his car up a lonely road. He was dressed casually in black jeans; a white T-shirt; white socks and black boots. He reached the end of the road and arrived at a clearing; the fairly large house looked anonymous and fairly abandoned. The property sat at the edge of a beach, the man laughed.
'Looks like they caught a lucky break with this one.' He thought happily. 'An old abandoned Umbrella beachfront property; last place the company would expect to look for them.'
He stopped the car and got out of it. He walked up and knocked on the door; he waited patiently as the spyhole opened and then the door finally opened. Standing in the door was a young Caucasian man; aged twenty-five with medium length messy black hair, blue eyes and toned build. He was clad for the beach; in Red swimming trunks, a white T-shirt over it for answering the door. With him was a twenty four year old Asian woman with shoulder length black hair and black eyes; she wore a white T-shirt under her beach wear; a black strapless bikini. The man smiled when he finally saw two of his old friends.
"Jason, Lisa, great to see you guys again." He said.
Jason Maxwell and Lisa Richards smiled at their guest. "So, Seth, you finally made it." Jason said with a rare smile.
They stepped back and let Seth inside.
Once inside and the door closed the trio walked into the living room of the large house. Once there they all sat down and Lisa spoke.
"So, where have you been all this time?" She asked. "Five years we've been missing you."
Seth nodded slowly. "I have a good reason." He paused and then held out a picture for them to see. "Here's my reason."
They examined the picture; it showed a thirty-eight year old Asian woman with long black hair, brown eyes and slim build. She was of medium height, dressed in a pair of blue jeans, a blue shirt with red flannel and white converse. On either side of her was two teenagers; the older of the two, a tallish sixteen year old boy with short, spiky black hair and black eyes, he had a strong medium build. He was dressed casually in a pair of cargo pants, a plain black shirt and black and red jordans. The second child was a girl, short and slim, around thirteen years old with black hair and surprisingly purple eyes. She was clad in blue jeans, a pink shirt and white sneakers. Jason looked up at Seth.
"Your family?"
Seth nodded. "My wife Katie, my son Blake and daughter Abby. I had to ensure they were safe, but every time I got them safe, Umbrella would find us again." It's only now that I'm certain they're safe; they're with a woman called Rosemarie; the head of Terra Save."
The others nodded. Lisa then replied
"Tim's mother. Well, it's good that you're here now, come and see everyone, we're all out on the beach."
Seth agreed and got changed into his T-shirt and black swimming trunks and followed Jason and Lisa, now in just their swimsuits, outside.
Outside Seth noted the rest of the group, including the new members who he didn't know yet. They were all out in the sun, dressed for the beach, either sunbathing, or sitting chatting with each other. Seth at first noted the people he knew, the closest ones first as they walked up. The first ones were twenty-two year old Tim Shaffer and his girlfriend, twenty-five year old Sappira Jade. Both were Caucasian, Sappira was rather slender, Tim had a toned build. Tim had short brown hair, blue eyes and was clad in a blue Speedo. Sappira had medium long dirty blonde hair, green eyes and wore a blue two piece bikini. Sitting talking to them was thirty year old Lydia Caliente, a Caucasian woman with white blonde hair and emerald green eyes. She was clad in a green bikini top, black board shorts and was sitting on a black jacket. The others he recognized were another couple, both twenty-three; Dylan Henderson and his wife Katrina, formerly Katrina Perri. Dylan had medium length brown hair and brown eyes and was quite muscular; Katrina's brown hair was long and she had blue eyes and was slender. Both were Caucasian but their skin was deeply tanned. Katrina wore a pink string bikini and Dylan a pair of black board shorts with a skull design on the left hand side. His gaze turned to twenty-four year old Victoria Hughes, an African-American female with medium long black hair and black eyes, in a white one-piece swimsuit. Victoria's boyfriend, twenty-five year old Caucasian Carl Hernandez, with his short messy black hair and teal eyes, clad in dark blue trunks. Finally he noted sixteen year old Jacob Robins, a skinny tan skinned boy with short brown hair and brown eyes; clad in a black Speedo.
There were three present that he didn't know however. A tall, pale skinned twenty-one year old girl with long curly blonde hair in fishtail braids and forest green eyes, clad in a blue one-piece swimsuit. The second was an Asian twenty-two year old toned man with medium length black hair and black eyes wearing green swimming trunks. The final person was a small two year old Caucasian boy with a small tuft of brown hair, brown eyes and clad in a lightweight one-piece Eyore suit. All those he knew looked up and greeted him happily. They were all relieved to see him back; Jason then introduced him to the unknown young woman and man, Cashmere Fehlauer and David Sanders. The little boy was Jayden Henderson, Dylan and Katrina's son. After the introductions Seth joined the group and they all relaxed. They were taking a break from their long fight with Umbrella, a well-deserved break some might say, if they knew of their full struggle. However that break was about to be rudely interrupted. After a good hour's relaxation, they heard a beeping noise from Jason's computer inside. It had been set to only make noise, interrupting them, in an urgent situation. Jason was on his feet immediately and hurried inside. The others all got up, Katrina picking up Jayden, and they followed him inside.
Once inside they crowded into Jason's computer room. He was seated in front of it, reading the screen and what had been discovered.
"This is big guys." Jason stated. "Look at this, a massive spike in power consumption at an Umbrella base in Africa. I know that base well…it can only mean one thing. My father is there."
They saw the determined look in his eye and knew what was about to happen, the same look was in Lisa's eye.
"We'll finish this; take him out once and for all." Lisa stated. "All of you be ready, we might still need you to take care of things."
Jason nodded. "Let's do it, Lisa and I will get to work immediately."
Everybody nodded grimly, they had all suffered, but none more than these two, due to Trevor Maxwell, chairman of Umbrella. They began forming plans, ready to strike at the very heart of Umbrella.
