Jungle Fever
Episode 1: Into The Wild
Rays of light glistened across the ocean, as a warm summers day blanketed the world with an aura of positivity, excitement, the prospect of adventure.
Three things that two of the three college aged friends, held inside their spirits, as they traversed the ocean off to a small Island, unmarked from any map, a rather considerable distance from their home in Racoon City, but no less thrilled by the prospect of seeing something different than what they knew.
Long since silently farewelling the urban buildings and streets with the mass amounts of people, cars and consumerism, ready to embrace a world so alien from that with this new Island, not even named given that it was unmarked. Liberated from all the modern conveniences and distractions that caught people's attention so easily.
But for as meaningful as their purpose might've been, the almost mystical charm had indeed captivated the attention of two of the three friends travelling there by boat.
Rebecca Chambers, 18 years old. The youngest of the three friends. An exceptionally bright girl, bubbly, upbeat and a generally perky girl no matter what the situation. Of course what came as a result of her youth and inexperience was her innate curiosity towards new ideas and things that interested her. The perfect fit for a girl who loved to study fields like Botany and the way in which it can be used for Medicine.
But above all else, her kind and bubbly nature often lent itself to her developing quirky and strange behaviour as a result, often being adorably nicknamed 'Becca' by her two close friends Leon S Kennedy and Jill Valentine.
Leon S Kennedy, 20 years old, the kinda guy who it would seem like a no-brainer as far being someone Rebecca would want to be friends with. A decently sharp witted guy who though not exactly a child genius, at least had enough common sense to skate by situations with his cocky remarks and cool demeanour… Maybe he might've been a bit of a lech when it came to girls and perhaps a tad too immature for Jill's liking, but Rebecca found herself drawing a lot of influence from him and thus the friendship between them flourished quite naturally.
Jill Valentine, 20 years old, she was a girl who to the passing onlooker would seem quite strange personality wise to be friends with such easy going people. Comparatively to Leon Jill was quite prim, the kind of girl who strived to maintain a sense of etiquette about herself, to portray herself as ladylike to put it simply. And unlike Rebecca who was usually Gung-Ho about trying new things and both by her curious nature and tendency towards curiosity when it came to some of the more natural aspects of life, ala The Great Outdoors, Jill was quite fussy when it came to things like nature, insects and the overgrowth of flora that came with the jungle terrain.
Suffice it to say, Jill was firmly rooted in the territory of being a girly girl. Definitely the kind of person who enjoyed the comforts of modern civilisation than living Bear Grylls style out in the wilderness.
But the key difference between her and a conceited airhead was Jill's predilection for being incredibly stubborn. Like Leon, she found Rebecca's warm bubbly nature to be inviting enough to see her as a desirable friend and likewise Leon's sense of humour had Jill reflect upon how their personalities would balance out hers creating a perfect balance.
Balance meant control and it was something that Jill appreciated. Sure she might not have liked to do everything Rebecca and Leon liked to do, but she was a woman of her word and would stick with them through it all.
After all being someone who was more grounded and domesticated to a sense of routine and etiquette Jill figured that somebody would have to bring Becca and Leon back down to Earth when they got so over excited about something.
Jill stared at her reflection within the ocean as her stomach churned with anxiety. It was obvious that she was uncomfortable about going such a long distance away from Racoon City, but reluctantly accepted their offer knowing that she could be there to be the 'logical' one of the trio, there to maintain a sense of caution to Rebecca's curiosity.
"Jeez, what's up with you?" Leon asked, taking note of Jill's nervous state despite her attempts to hide such an emotion, all while rowing towards the Island, drawing nearing from the distance.
She turned to Leon, unsure of what answer to give him, contemplating her response out of fear of dragging down the mood by entering one of her 'naggy girlfriend' routines as Leon often put it.
Jill tilted her head towards Rebecca, subtly indicative that she was doing this for Rebecca's sake rather than her own.
"Aw, don't be so nervous Jill, besides this is gonna be fun! I can't wait to see all those plant specimens on the island, I mean I read that there are so many medicinal herbs that were used to cure ailments such as…" Rebecca began, attempting to reassure her friend before spiralling into a longwinded tangent as she listed off the herbs and plant life she had been reading up on prior to the journey.
Leon just silently shook his head and sighed now that Jill had gotten Rebecca into one of her 'Nurse Becca' raves as Leon so often put it.
Jill could only let out a soft chuckle in amusement of the girl's quirky behaviour whenever medicine or flora had entered the discussion, but all it meant in the end was a brief distraction from the anxiety Jill felt about being on the Island.
Still, she had to admit that there was a natural beauty to the Island that even if she wasn't exactly the kind of girl who would live in that environment, she could at least appreciate it none the less. The lush verdant flora of the jungle combined with the sandy beach adorning the edges made for a picturesque setting that took Jill's breath away just looking at it in person.
There was just something about being there in the moment that just made it look so appealing to Jill, almost as if the serene emotions it was filling her with had overridden the logical part of her brain as well as the part of her that detested some of the harsher elements of the great outdoors. Maybe it was just her living in the moment but Jill (if subconsciously) felt herself relax to a slight degree about going to the island.
Once hitting the shore, the trio stepped out onto the beach, each of them noting how fresh and clean the air was as they inhaled the scents and soaked in the atmosphere of the tropical island.
Rebecca was over the moon that she was actually here, just about ready to take off into a run and explore the Island to her heart's content until she felt a hand gripping her dress, turning to see a stern faced Jill looking directly at her.
"Listen Becca, I know you're excited to be here and all but first we need to make a few ground rules. Number 1: Nobody wanders too far away, Number 2: We meet back here at 2:00 PM and lastly Number 3: Please don't do something that might get you hurt" Jill stated, listing off her concerns part of which by virtue of how she didn't want to be here but the other half of which out of genuine concern for Rebecca hurting herself by lack of caution.
"Yes Mom" Rebecca giggled, her tone playful as she joked about Jill's desire for structure and cautionary behaviour as being typical of a motherly figure before girlishly skipping her way across the beach, humming a pop tune which suited her bubbly personality.
"She's right ya know. You really are the kinda girl who'd fit right into the role of being a Mom" Leon commented with no detection of sarcasm or a jesting tone to his voice.
"I just prefer to have a solid plan of what we're doing rather than just blindly jumping in without a clue what we're doing" Jill replied, as if a meagre defence for her words.
"Yeah, but it also means that you don't try and live it up. I mean really, this is a chance for you to finally get outta your comfort zone and live on the wild side" Leon remarked, trying to encourage Jill to enjoy her time on the Island while they were there.
"Hmm…" Jill stopped and thought for a moment. She was nervous and knew she had a strong bias against the great outdoors by virtue of her personality and habits. But none the less a part of her did note how Leon's words did have merit as far as being openminded was concerned.
" Hey, c'mon guys! We've got so much to see and I wanna go exploring before we have to leave" Rebecca called out, waving Leon and Jill over to her as she was about to enter the Jungle, still chipper and excited for her little expedition.
Joining up with Rebecca and traversing the Jungle, Leon had dashed the tree with a mark from a stick so that they'd know where they had arrived on the beach.
Despite Rebecca's enthusiasm skyrocketing as she examined all sorts of plant life, and Leon simply going with the flow as far as Rebecca's mood was concerned, Jill found her patience growing increasingly thin, as she had seemingly become a target for bugs and the humid heat of the Jungle getting to her.
But despite all that continued to pester her, Jill kept her anger bottled up and tried her best to tolerate the conditions of the Jungle in tandem with Rebecca's bubbly attitude.
And an unfortunate side-effect of Rebecca's excitement came in the form of how fast she was moving.
Like a kid in a candy store Rebecca hopped from place to place in such rapid pace that Jill found herself being unable to keep up with the two.
"Could you two just slow down a bit!" Jill called out as she struggled to maintain a consistent speed with her friends, not being helped by how she attempted to navigate through the jungle thicket, constantly getting whipped in the face by palm tree leafs which only served to slow down her already sluggish pace.
The moment she made it out into a clearing, much to Jill's frustration she had gotten herself lost.
"Damn it!" she snapped towards nobody in particular, angrily stewing in her thoughts as she aimlessly wandered in abject frustration over the fact that she herself had managed to get herself lost while also regretting having even come to the island at all.
However this is where Jill's mind soon started to drift from anger over to anxiety as she found fear beginning to claim her, anxious with each step she took. Her chest tightening as she tried to maintain control of her emotions, attempting to calm herself by inhaling deep breaths, closing her eyes to summon up the strength to formulate a plan and find her way back towards the beach where they came in from.
If nothing else then at least Jill would know that if Rebecca and Leon couldn't find her, they could retrace their steps and find her back there.
Her anxious mood stabilising, Jill felt a moment of security as she at least had a solid plan in which she could rely on to keep herself on task.
As she turned around and started making her way back however, another problem had arisen… She hadn't a clue where she had traveled from and the all too familiar looking jungle hadn't made navigating the place any easier.
She was still lost and nothing short of a hedge trimmer would be of any use to her out here.
"Oh fantastic" Jill muttered sarcastically, walking off in the direction she had intended on going, knowing that even if she was lost if she could travel to one side of the island, eventually she would reach a beach and from there she'd travel the coastline and return to the boat with relative ease.
Letting out a soft sigh as she looked on into the depths of the jungle, looking upon the nature, trees covered with moss and the vines that decorated the place, leading to a ravine beyond, furnished with more jungle in its trail. It was all Jill could do but simply remark about her current situation with a tone of fatigue to her voice.
"At least things can't get any wor- AAAAAAAHH!" She began only to cut her sentence short by a feminine shriek by slipping off her feet as she had taken her first step onto some moss, tumbling down the small ravine, desperately trying to avoid any rocks and serious injuries on her part coming to a stop as she landed onto the ground halting her rapid descent.
Placing her palms on the ground in an attempt to push herself up from the ground, her skirt and blue tube top having been grazed with dust upon landing, Jill could only give the world around her a look of aggravation as a strand of her brown hair fell loosely from its typical bob leading to a very angry Jill unable to even give the cruel sense of humour the satisfaction of seeing her stumble to a crawl like a toddler learning to walk for the first time.
However as she took the time to examine her surroundings, Jill noticed two feet standing right in front of her.
Her eyes widening in confusion, Jill continued to look upon the visage of the person standing in front of her to find out that it was a man, looking somewhere around her age and a surprisingly strong build to him with his general demeanour appearing tough and confident in his posture however his expression seemed to be born out of concern.
But such things were easily set aside for Jill Valentine when there was one garishly obvious thing to note about the man who stood in front of her.
He was completely NAKED.
Jill gasped as she looked upon this man baring it all out in front of her. She could see his abs, his penis and balls, now slowly becoming erect as she noticed him look her in the eyes as if he found something about her to enjoy.
Unfortunately however Jill had come to the conclusion that whatever this man wanted out of her it was either a threat or a mate, causing her to lurch backwards and crawl away a few steps before stopping as she continued to eye the nude man in front of her. And considering the current state of his penis now pointing upward, that obviously meant the latter as far as Jill was concerned.
Jill remained frozen in her expression as she and the nude man simply locked eyes at one another, neither one daring to speak as they attempted to understand each other through visual observation alone.
Eventually however, one of them had broken the silence.
"Are you alright?" The nameless man asked, his words and tone conveying the concern Jill had previously suspected he might have intended despite his body language saying differently. However even in spite of what the obvious answer to his question would be, being the kind of girl who focuses on the minor details, Jill still felt obligated to comment on his appearance.
"WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU! Put on some clothes for goodness sake!" Jill exclaimed, her knee-jerk reaction upon being subjected to the visage of a naked man overriding her ability to question who he was and why his state of dress (or lack thereof) was so prevalent.
"Chris? Is that you?" called out a girl's voice, catching the attention of the naked man standing in front of Jill who now had a name.
"Yeah, you gotta come see this Claire I found a girl on the Island!" Chris replied, turning around to the general direction he could pinpoint the girl's voice from.
"Thank god. Maybe that girl can talk some sense into him and put some pants on him" Jill thought, her breathing easing up as she calmed slightly almost feeling at ease with the seemingly friendly intent between the voices of Chris and Claire.
The rustling of the bushes came from behind Chris as Claire came out to reveal herself in more ways than one.
"There you are!" Claire exclaimed happily upon finding Chris, jumping out of the bush as naked as the day she was born, running over to see the girl Chris had found, leading to Jill's eyes to widen to the size of saucers as she stared at the nude girl, shocked that she was willing to be naked in a place like this.
"HER TOO!?" Jill screamed in her mind, unable to react outside of a shocked expression on her face as the girl strode up to her, kneeling down as Jill saw the girl with auburn hair tied back into a ponytail look at her with a warm expression on her face as if to indicate that she meant no harm towards her.
"Hey, are you alright? Is something wrong?" Claire queried, her tone conveying a concerned yet friendly demeanour only for Jill to finally speak up.
"Oh I don't know, maybe it's the fact that you're both NAKED!" she exclaimed, emphasizing her words, internally regretting her choice of words seeing as the two were nice to her despite her knee-jerk reactions being rather blunt.
The two shared a confused look towards each other before looking back at Jill.
"Does it bother you?" Chris asked, his expression rather straight faced but not hostile as far as Jill's blunt remark.
"Well kinda… I mean… UGH, look I didn't mean to insult you or anything I was just, a little surprised ya know?" Jill replied, struggling to get out a response that could act as both an apology to her previous answer and as a means of persuading the two to put on some clothes.
Claire simply giggled at her response, extending her hand towards Jill to help her back on her feet.
"I guess I can see why you'd think that. Me and Chris stopped wearing clothes a long time ago. You kinda stop caring about things like modesty when you're living on an island like us" Claire stated before Jill raised her hand towards Claire's.
"Still, I never thought I'd ever see another girl on the Island. You got a name?" Claire asked, as her hand gripped Jill's.
"Jill Valentine" the girl answered after arising to her feet, now standing on firmer ground with the two naked people who stood before her.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Claire Redfield and he's Chris, my older brother" Claire replied with warmth in her voice, introducing herself and Chris as she placed her hands on her hips, seeming so casually relaxed upon meeting somebody new.
"So you guys live here all alone on the island?" Jill queried, her mind now drifting to how they could've survived here as long as they have without the aid of modern civilisation or if they had simply adapted to the jungle ways.
"Yep. Been living here in the jungle as far back as I can remember. Ever since I was young I promised myself that me and Claire would stick by each other and both of us would help each other survive in the Jungle" Chris answered, giving Jill a bit more of a background of his history on himself and his sister.
"What about your parents?" Jill questioned, desiring more information out of the two to sate her curiosity
"Good question… Unfortunately I don't have a very good answer, I can't really remember. But I honestly don't let that bother me too much. As long as Claire's safe and sound then that's all that matters to me" Chris replied, his answer warming Jill's heart as she could feel his words dripping with a courageous desire to protect his loved ones, a prospect Jill found admirable in the man.
"There you are Jill! I thought you were the one who told us not to wander off when you yourself had…" spoke a familiar voice, appearing from out of the bushes in a small jog as Jill turned to see Rebecca Chambers and Leon Kennedy having at last found her again, but the two taking immediate notice of Chris and Claire's appearance being Au Natural.
"Well suddenly this day just got even better" Leon commented, breaking the silence as a lecherous grin formed on his face, his eyes drawn towards Claire's chest as he took every pleasure in examining her body to much satisfaction on his end.
Jill thought it right in her mind to slap Leon only to be interrupted by a more exuberant presence.
"Hi!" Rebecca remarked cheerfully, obviously excited to meet new people.
"My name's Rebecca, but you can call me Becca, I prefer Becca cuz it sounds cooler ya know. Anyway it's nice to meet you guys, what are your names?" Rebecca added, introducing herself in her typical bubbly manner as she began to motormouth her explanation on her preferred nickname.
The introductions were soon dealt with between them all and it came as no surprise to Jill that it was incredibly likely that Rebecca and Leon were going to become fast friends by virtue of their open and friendly personalities alone.
"So where do you guys live anyway?" Rebecca asked, her curious nature pretty much usurping Jill's previous role as the questioner as far as learning about the two nudists.
"We've got a hut not too far off from here if you wanna come see it" Chris answered before Rebecca's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Then what are we waiting for LEEEEETS GO!" Rebecca announced, exuberantly moving her body as she pointed into a random direction into the jungle.
"Uh, Becca. It's this way" Claire commented, correcting Rebecca as she pointed east of her position.
"Whoops! Sorry hehe…" Rebecca chuckled, blushing red of embarrassment while Jill merely sighed and shook her head before the group took off into the Jungle.
Eventually reaching a small hut big enough to house the group themselves, one that was built within a large tree obviously having been made of sturdy enough material and craftsmanship to have supported a second storey balcony, it was here where there were vastly differing reactions to Chris and Claire's humble abode.
Becca as expected was blown away by in her own words how 'cooooooool!' their place was, while Leon silently admired the hut (though that in part helped by how Claire's rather nicely shaped butt happened to be in front of it) and Jill though finding it impressive in her own right, simply wished she could return to Raccoon City.
The group eventually split off as Chris opted to show them his and Claire's 'slice of life' as he wanted to show the three clothed people who to swing across the jungle on vines. An activity which Becca was gung-ho about, wanting to go as fast as she could, with Leon deciding to join in out of the principle of it being something fun to do while Jill declined, obviously not being a big fan of heights.
In the end Jill merely stayed behind as she watched from the balcony while observing the joyful chemistry between her friends and the naked Chris as they ran around the Jungle having the time of their lives while Jill lamented how different she truly was and wondered whether or not she was really in the right for wanting to leave when her friends were having so much fun here.
"Penny for your thoughts?" Claire queried rhetorically, Jill then turning to see Claire now covering her body with a fur loin cloth bikini to cover her breasts and vagina. It was a start, but to a girl like Jill the look still felt a little skimpy none the less.
"Why are you wearing that? I thought you would've just kept on being naked?" Jill asked curiously.
"Hey I LOVE being in the nude, and given the choice I'd rather be naked all the time. But if it makes people uncomfortable then I don't mind covering up" Claire answered.
"Well, I appreciate the thought in any case" Jill stated, giving her thanks towards the girl receiving a small chuckle from Claire.
"Well I'd say I at least care a little more about Modesty than Chris does. He just wants to run around naked all the time, regardless of what anyone thinks of him" Claire remarked, leaning on the wooden railing as she overlooked her older brother teaching Rebecca and Leon to swing on vines.
"Still… Don't you ever find it hard living out here?" Jill asked, wondering how anyone could remain as laid back as Claire when pitted against the rough conditions of the Jungle.
"Not really. I guess since I've been doing it my whole life it kinda comes naturally to me. All of this is pretty much everyday life for me and Chris" Claire answered.
"I wish I could say the same" Jill sighed, envious of how Claire seemed to have such a large amount of patience for outdoors living.
"Ya know… While you guys are sticking around, maybe we could show you how the other side live, in fact there's a small lake just below a waterfall if you're willing to take a dip" Claire suggested, warmly smiling as if she had gained satisfaction from solving a difficult puzzle only to have Jill pale in response.
"Uh, I'm not sure I'd really be-" Jill stammered before being cut off by Claire.
"Relax a little, besides Becca and Leon seem to be getting into it. I'm sure once you give it a shot you'll like it too" Claire remarked, trying to encourage the girl to try something out of her comfort zone.
Jill sighed heavily, unsure of what to say.
"I don't know… Sometimes I feel like I just don't fit in compared to them. Don't get me wrong I like them but there's been so many times where I feel like a fish out of water whenever they want to do stuff that's way too much for me" Jill spoke, her tone sounding dejected as she watched on to see how much fun Leon and Becca were having in her absence.
"Just give it a chance Jill. Sometimes that's all it takes to conquer your fears" Claire remarked, placing her hand on the girl's shoulder, smiling a warm grin on her face giving her much reassurance that things would all work out.
Jill felt a little more at ease, but there was one more prevalent question on her mind before she went off towards the lake.
"There is one more thing I wanted to ask… About Chris" Jill stated, unsure of how exactly to put across her query.
"Okay, shoot?" Claire replied, casually leaning with her back against the railing.
"I just can't figure him out. He looks strong and powerful but at the same time there's something about him that's just so…" Jill explained, trailing off unable to properly elaborate on her thoughts on the naked man.
"Kind?" Claire put forward, adding to the end of Jill's statement with the girl in question nodding her head in agreement.
"Yeah, that's the thing about Chris. He might look like the kinda guy who'd knock your block off but deep down he's got a big heart, and he'll do anything to make sure his friends and family are safe and happy. Even if he's not the sharpest guy around" Claire added, speaking from long personal experience with her older brother.
As if on cue, the two ladies were interrupted by a vine swinging Chris emitting a Tarzan-like scream from his vocal chords as he swung face first into a tree, gripping onto it as he slowly slid down as if the universe had some comical sense of humour against the Redfield Nudist.
"I'm okay!" Chris called out, his voice sounding shaky, but his tone delivering a message that was indicative of no serious injury.
"Case and point. He's tough, but he's usually pretty laid back and cool like me. Now c'mon, I think you're long overdue to catch up to Leon and Becca. They've actually gotten pretty good at vine swinging for their first time" Claire concluded, leading to the nude Redfield girl to inform them of where she was taking Jill, before the two headed off with Leon, Becca and Chris claiming that they'd meet up with them shortly.
The lake in question was truly stunning. A visually breathtaking spectacle to say the least.
The flowing water, filling the lake surrounded by the lush green vegetation, shaded by palm trees with rocks adorning the edges, making for the perfect place to sit and watch the beautiful sight before the viewer giving them a look of pure beauty.
"Wow…" Jill remarked softly. her eyes drifting across the beautiful landscape as she placed her feminine hand on her chest as the view took her breath away.
So distracted by what was in front of her, it wasn't until Claire walked in front of Jill as she began to take off her clothes… Well what little there was for her to take off in her loin cloth bikini, flicking her panties off with her leg and running into the water stark naked, her giggling indicative of a childish sense of excitement as she traversed deep enough to start swimming across the lake.
"You gonna jump in?" Claire asked to a reproachful Jill, still standing on the water's edge in her clothes.
"Aren't you worried about the boys seeing you naked?" Jill asked, her tone displaying uneasiness still finding Claire's nudity a foreign concept for a girl to embrace.
"Nope. Besides you should really try swimming in the nude, it's amazing!" Claire replied cheerfully, reveling in her nudity as she swayed her body within the water.
"Trust me I'd rather not" Jill declined, Claire chuckling as she found the girl's obvious discomfort amusing as she swam towards Jill with something to say.
"Suit yourself, but believe you me. Being naked underwater is by far one of the best sensations I've ever felt" Claire remarked, her voice expressing how truly wonderful it felt to be unconstricted by clothing while swimming across the lake.
"*Ahem*... Ladies" called out a male's voice who Jill immediately identified as Leon's, turning to see her friend having finally caught up with her before both girls got the shock of their lives, audibly gasping as their eyes had gazed upon the current appearance of Leon S Kennedy.
"Oh my god..." Jill mouthed, too shocked for words, bringing her hands up to her mouth absolutely gobsmacked at what she saw while Claire's thoughts took a more lewd perception.
"Penis... CLAIRE WANTS BIG PENIS!" Claire exclaimed in her mind, perverted thoughts overriding any semblance of rational thought as she just stared at Leon's current attire (or lack thereof)
That's right, Leon S Kennedy was in the nude like Claire and Chris, baring it all out in the open as he exposed his penis and balls to the world in his embrace of being naked.
"W-why? Why are you naked? You need to put some clothes on" Jill stammered, her mind shattering in on itself trying to figure out why Leon would do such a thing.
"Nah, besides it's kinda hot out here. Not to mention Chris and Claire seem to be pretty cool with being naked so I figured I'd give it a shot. So far I think it's pretty fun" Leon answered, basking his body to the elements before another presence made itself known.
Stepping out from the bushes came Chris and Becca, the girl having listened to Leon's little speech and opting to comment on it herself.
"You're right Leon... Let me join you" Rebecca remarked with a sly grin on her face as she lifted up her dress and casually flicked it aside, before quickly removing her panties, tossing them aside with ease. Having joined Leon in being naked as she basked in the elements of the jungle, placing her hands on her hips as she exposed her perky breasts and vagina, Becca just couldn't help but smile as she agreed with Leon's sentiments.
Jill just stared at her two friends with her jaw to the floor flabbergasted and unsure if what she was seeing was even real. Sure Leon and Becca were always up for trying new things but to strip completely naked like this was completely insane to her.
There was nothing else to say as Jill found her naked friends gathering up in front of her bearing a concerned look on their faces.
"Hey Jill, you okay?" Becca asked to a rather pale Jill who under all her circumstances could only do one logical thing in this given situation.
She fainted.
Regaining consciousness moments later, seeing nothing but exposed nude skin towering above her muttering to themselves indistinctly as Jill's hazy vision attempted to distinguish the vague shapes in her vision slowly coming into focus, a girl's voice currently speaking as Jill discerned the origin of the voice to belong to Rebecca Chambers.
"-Ya know I heard that getting naked can help reduce stress, so I'm thinking that maybe..." Becca stated, reaching down towards Jill's tube top, with Jill having gained back enough of her senses to know exactly where this was headed.
"Don't you DARE Rebecca Chambers" Jill seethed icily, intercepting Becca's wrist in a stone tight grip, bordering on crushing the girl's wrist as Jill opted to use Rebecca's full name rather than her preferred nickname. Usually when Becca did something to piss Jill off.
"Ah-hehe... Just checking you're okay" Becca giggled nervously.
"So, you don't wanna be naked?" Chris asked.
"NO! Of course I don't want to be naked, are you MAD!? It's disgraceful for a lady to reveal herself like that" Jill snapped, causing Leon to roll his eyes.
"Oh man, here we go..." he sighed, bearing a fatigued expression knowing the verbal onslaught that was about to occur.
"What was that Leon?" Jill asked in a passive aggressive tone, eyeing the man with a glare.
"You're always going on about all this lady-like crap and constantly bitching on how a proper girl should act, I mean, c'mon man. Just be cool and have some fun. Who knows, maybe you might actually like being naked" Leon replied, attempting to reason with Jill who clearly was having none of that.
"Yeah, how about NO!" Jill snapped
"Awww... C'mon Jill, pleeeeeeease?" Becca pleaded in an adorable manner only to be shot down like a dejected puppy the moment Jill gave her response.
"No."
"Listen Jill, you don't have to get naked if you don't want to, we won't force you to do anything you don't want, but as long as you don't mind us being nude, then we won't have a problem with you wearing clothes, sound good?" Claire offered, giving Jill somewhat of an ultimatum in how exactly things were gonna operate around here.
"Mmm... Fine, whatever... Just as long as we start heading back by 4:00 PM okay?" Jill replied, her agreement with Claire's statement plus her own terms being generally agreed upon by the group.
Time flowed slowly for Jill, but what she saw was no less than natural as she saw complete unabashed enjoyment on the faces of Leon and Becca as they ran amok in the jungle in the nude. Weirdly enough it seemed to Jill that they enjoyed the feeling of being unrestricted with their nudity acting as their way of expressing their wild side now exposed to the untamed beauty of the jungle.
She couldn't say that she wasn't tempted to try it, occasionally tugging at her clothes, wondering if perhaps she too could share a slice of pure naked bliss for even a moment...
Shaking her head, Jill simply stood on watching, believing herself to be crazy for even considering on getting naked in a place as dangerous as the jungle.
Still, there wasn't to say that being naked wasn't without its advantages too. For one thing Chris and Claire given their experience moved through the jungle flora with ease, their nudity giving them some kind of freedom of movement to run fast and swing on vines with as much freedom as their naked bodies could allow.
Even Leon and Becca were managing to keep up with them thanks to their nakedness while Jill straggled behind as she constantly removed branches snagging her clothes, careful not to rip them off as she pried them away from the fabric of her top and skirt.
Eventually when 4:00 PM rolled around however the clothes had to go back on and the group had made their way down to the shoreline where they had left their boat to say their goodbyes and be on their merry way.
Just one problem however...
The boat was gone.
"B-but I thought you said you had it secured to the beach didn't you Becca?" Jill asked, stammering nervously as she looked towards the girl for an answer.
"Whoops, hehe... I uh... Forgot" Becca answered, shooting Jill a coyly nervous smile as she chuckled out of embarrassment.
"YOU WHAT!?" Jill exclaimed, getting the impression that Becca wasn't fully aware of the gravity of their situation.
"Don't get mad at me, I thought it was wedged up the beach pretty good. Then again maybe I was so excited that I forgot about the tide coming in Becca explained.
"I don't think you understand the problem here Becca, WE'RE TRAPPED HERE Thanks to YOU!" Jill snapped, her angry tone directed towards the usually perky and energetic girl who gave off the look of a kicked puppy as she looked as if she was about to burst into tears.
"Would you just chill out for a second, yelling at Becca's not gonna do anything except make her cry. Besides, we've got Chris and Claire to help us survive on the island, so we're not totally screwed" Leon stated.
"But what about our families? They'll be worried sick" Jill remarked, instantly regretting her words as she saw Rebecca uncomfortably shy away as her eyes drew themselves down to the floor silently thanking Leon for picking up the conversation when he did.
"Like my folks would really give a crap if I was gone, Bastards probably would've kicked me to the curb anyway" Leon spoke with icy bitterness.
"ARGH! I give up" Jill conceeded before gritting her teeth. It was obvious that there was little Jill could do to convince them but she hated the idea that she could never get off the island short of making some kind of boat from the trees on the Island. But even then that'd take time before she could build the damn thing.
"C'mon now, don't be so negative Jill. We've only just gotten to know ya, plus you guys are the only other people we've ever met, so if you like you three can hang with us and we'll show you the ropes on how we do things out here" Chris spoke, attempting to inject some optimism into the situation.
"Right! We'll all stick together like one big group" Claire piped up, slinging her arms around Jill and Leon's shoulder as she grinned cheerfully.
"Well seeing as we're stuck here I'm cool with that" Leon commented.
"Me too!" Becca added happily.
"So it's settled then. We all stick together" Chris stated to a positive response from most of the group.
"YAY!" Becca cheered as she took off her dress and threw it in the air before sliding off her panties and jumping up excitedly.
"Becca what the hell are you doing?" Jill asked, her tone deadpan as to why the chirpy girl was stripping naked, though having a general idea of why she did so. Also taking note that Leon was following suit as he took off his clothes.
"Coz I like it better naked... Ooh! Wait I've got an idea you guys! Since we're a group now why don't we give ourselves a name" Becca replied before getting into motormouth mode about her idea to give their little group a name.
"Any suggestions?" Chris queried.
"How about The Nakeds?" Becca suggested only for the response to be met with a deadpanned expression from Jill.
"Seriously? You know for a smart girl you really need to work on the whole naming convention. Not to mention you're forgetting just one thing... I DON'T WANT TO BE NAKED!" Jill spoke, her tone starting dull but shifting to a yell as she actively denied the association or implication that she enjoyed getting naked by even the word alone.
"Majority rules Jill. Besides I kinda like it. Simple, but it pretty much sums up what we're all about" Leon stated getting agreement from the other three naked people.
Forming themselves into a small circle pit, Chris, Claire, Leon and Rebecca placed their hands on top of one another, symbolizing their unity in nudity, awaiting one more hand to complete their celebration.
Letting out a deadpanned sigh, Jill found all eyes on her as she stood separate from the group, unwilling to indulge in such childish things.
"Aww, come on Jill, Join in" Becca pleaded, giving her best reassuring smile towards the girl two years older than her.
"You can't be serious?" Jill queried rhetorically, the dull inflection in her voice obviously indicative of how utterly ridiculous she found this scenario despite the weighty consequences she would have to deal with in the jungle should she stay here.
"Just do it Jill. Have some fun for once in your life" Leon spoke, motioning Jill to join them in their unity. Even if Jill did not join them in the nude at least she could be with them in their free spirit.
"I'm gonna be in for pure hell aren't I?" Jill sighed, her defeated expression leading to giggles and chuckles before she relented and placed her hand within the center to join her friends.
"Don't be so cynical Jill. In fact, I'm gonna bet that once you get used to things here, you'll start to unwind and enjoy the fun" Claire giggled, happy that Jill had finally joined them to complete the group.
"Somehow I sincerely doubt that" Jill muttered to herself as the group counted in to the big dispersal where they raised their hands in the air and exclaimed their cheer...
"To The Nakeds!"
A/N: XD HAI NAKED GUYS AND GIRLS!
So I know RE to a lot of people is all about dark zombies and science experiments and stuff and I love the games too ^^
And I can see them getting mad that my AU writing is out of character, but it's kinda supposed to be since I like the characters and want to make them naked and put them into a more lighthearted setting with a bit more of a focus on being cheesy and fun XD
I can't help it, I'm a cheerful girl.
So if you're looking for a dark and edgy fic about zombies and stuff this probably isn't the story for you.
But if you're here for some lighthearted fun and games while also imagining your favourite RE characters getting nude then I'm happy and hope you like this story.
I also hope you're reading this in the nude because there's nothing better than being naked while reading a story.
Actually it's just good being naked all the time XDDDDD
Anyway, see ya next episode Naked Readers where I introduce more characters, and we see how Jill develops from a fussy uptown girl into a better person who learns how to chill out. ^^
