Today's a New Day

Alone again

Two weeks after Chris found out Jill's secret he still hasn't spoke to her. Jill can't blame him after he came into STARS office that night and began yelling at her, Jill's father put his sister in a coma. It broke his heart and he broke hers by killing her father. Jill was then told to take control of Umbrella and she did. She ordered virus research to stop and was preparing herself to go to work the next day.

On the other side of Raccoon City a depressed Chris Redfield was sitting in his living room pondering on the thought of suicide, when he received a call from the hospital. Claire had awoken from her coma. He rushed over to see her.

Chris: "Hi, how are you?" it had been 13 days since she was shot.13 days since he thought he lost his little sister.

Claire: "I'm ok considering. Where's Jill?"

Chris: "I don't know" at this point he didn't care, he trusted her so much but she didn't even trust him enough to tell him about her family. It was her fault Claire was in here.

Claire: "I'm sure Jill didn't want to hurt anyone."

Chris: "I know that but why didn't she tell me?"

Claire: "You hated Umbrella so much, you'd have hated her." As Chris thought this over at the other end of town it was goodbye.

Ada helped Jill put her cases in the car. She drove her to STARS. Jill went to Barry's office.

Jill: "Hey, I'm leaving now?"

Barry: "Umbrella?" Jill nodded.

Jill: "I'm going to make it good not evil. I'm sorry it turned out this way."

Barry: " I know"

They said their goodbyes as Jill went to spend her first night in her new house Birkin Mansion. It was like the Spencer Mansion but the mansion was her house and the 5 underground levels were Umbrella's offices.

After what happened in the old Raccoon City, Umbrella are very unpopular so they hid out under the city. Under the 3000 houses in Raccoon City, under the sewer system was Umbrella.

Jill is lying in her bed looking at photos in her huge room as Ada walks in.

Ada: "like your new room?" Jill nodded pulling a picture of her mother out. "Why did you keep her name?"

Jill: " I loved her besides Jill Wong doesn't sound right" just then Ada notices a picture of Jill and Chris.

Ada: "Do you think Jill Redfield does?" Jill looked up surprised at the question. "You know I know you liked him but remember he killed daddy, remember all the horrible things he said. Forget about him"

Jill: " Yeah, We just have to make sure he stays out of our way" She knew she couldn't forget him that easy.

Back at Chris' house he had returned and he to was looking through photos. One of Claire and him when they were younger. One of them with their mother. He always wondered what became of her. The last time he saw her was when he joined the air force. Then he saw a photo of him and Jill smiling. He remembered how much fun they had had together. It was all finished because of a lie. As he put the framed picture on a shelf he began remembering all the time he'd spent with her. It was just too much for him. He wandered into the kitchen and picked up a knife, holding it against his wrist he cut it so it hurt so much. The blood was pouring everywhere. How he could continue his life he didn't know. The front door opened. "Chris!"
