Friendly Greeting

The air was humid, the sun was practically supernova, and the ground was reminiscent of a barren wasteland. But the Earth had not been destroyed or damaged, no, this was Africa. My home, my love, and i would do anything to protect it. I was raised by mercenaries, trained in the art of combat. Now i was a member of the BSAA. I was happy in the fact that i knew i was doing something good for the world, as were the rest of the members, scattered around the globe. I was standing in the middle of a village, arranging to meet an American agent for a team mission. His name was Chris Redfield. I looked up his files, a large thick folder containing facts about the many situations he has been in, all of which were nothing short of heroic. It was an honour to even get the chance to meet him. As i looked around the village, so beautiful and idyllic, yet there was a strange sense of menace lingering in the air, so bitter you could practically taste it. Just then a huge car appeared and out came the man id read about in the files. Short brown hair, muscled build, yes, this was definitely Chris Redfield. He walked towards me with such nonchalance that we could be meeting for a friendly chat, rather than a deadly mission. My name is Sheva Alomar. And this is my story.

"Hey there, I'm Chris" said the legendary agent.

"Hi there, I'm Sheva" i replied coolly, though inside i was shaking with nerves. "I've been assigned for this mission to put the locals at ease, I'm sure they won't take too kindly to Americans trespassing"

"Thanks, shall we head up the village?" He asked, obviously confused as to what to do.

"Sure, lets head up" i smiled.

As we were walking up, i looked around and was startled as to how this village reminded me of when i was 7 years old and... no! i shook my head as if to shake the bad memories out of my head. I was past that now, stronger wiser, and more determined. But one thing hadnt changed...my hatred for Umbrella, the corporation that killed my parents. With a new determined stride, i walked beside Chris, my partner, and headed towards the butcher shop, not knowing what was in store for us.
