20th December 2012

It was a cold winters afternoon at the airport, just as snow was starting to fall from the light grey coloured clouds that hung above them. They were standing in the airport terminal, saying their goodbyes to Chris Redfield, he was on a mission to lead his team into Edonia, Eastern Europe to stop another bio-terror attack. Nearly 3 years ago after saving Jill from Africa, Chris was promoted from Special Operations Agent (SOA) to Special Operations Unit (SOU) Captain. Chris and his team are sent out to Eastern Europe to eliminate all BOW's.

"I cant believe your going!? It's almost Christmas?" Claire called out to Chris as they shared a hug with each other.

"Claire, I'll be back soon I promise. Just take care of yourself" Chris said as he tossed her hair in his hand. He then turned to his wife, whom he did not want to leave behind, Jill.

They looked at each other for a while not wanting to say their goodbyes.

"Jill.. I.." Chris was suddenly cut off but Jill throwing her arms around his neck and squeezing.

"Come home safe.." Jill announced as she squeezed him tighter.

"hey, don't worry, I'll be home as soon as my mission ends" he cradled her in his arms and kissed her gently on the forehead.

"I know you will" She whispered into his neck

"here.. I want you to wear this.." she said as placing a silver necklace with the initial 'J' around his neck.

"thanks, I'll wear it always" Chris told her and as he pulled her close and kissed her forehead

"If you feel like everything is lost and there's no hope, just look at it and remember there's always hope." she told him as she placed her head nicely into the crook of his neck, he hugged her tightly and closed his eyes to savour the moment.

"Captain? Our flight will be leaving in 10 minutes" voice interrupted their goodbyes

Chris and Jill both looked to where the voice was coming from. There stood a man not much older than 26, wearing beige trousers and a large grey coat with the BSAA logo on his arms.

"Roger that.." Chris replied, as he kissed Jill passionately on the lips. He faced the man and nodded his head and they both headed towards passport check.

"Piers?" Jill said nervously

"Ma'am" Piers turned backed and walked up to her

for a moment she didn't know what to say, her eyes wondered to the floor then finally looked straight into Pier's eyes "take care of him" She asked.

"Will do" he said with a smile then continued on his way.

Claire and Jill stood there as the man they both love walked away to fight for what's right. Just as the snow began to fall Claire placed her arm over Jill's shoulder to share her warmth.

"He'll be home soon" Claire said to comfort Jill without taking her eyes from where Chris had walked off to.

"I know, He always comes home.. speaking of home? Lets go, we've got a Christmas party to plan" Jill answered back as she and Claire turned to get in Jill's Silver SUV.
