Chapter 2

The choppers made their way towards their destination; within the choppers, the fifteen top BSAA members were mentally preparing for their upcoming mission; this would be unlike anything they ever faced. As they sat, contemplating what they'd likely face in the upcoming few hours; Jason suppressed a sigh. He had been hiding a secret. After his initial departure from the group, he had run into them at various occasions, along with another stranger, one that he couldn't deny had caught his attention.

'That woman, the hooded woman, she...she's involved in this, somehow.' He noted to himself; before shaking his head. 'But even so, I still, this is my last chance, before my secret becomes impossible.'

It was well known that he had been infected by the T-Virus, Umbrella's first virus, yet had reacted differently to it than any other people, with it augmenting his strength in various ways, rather than turning him into a zombie.

But Jason hadn't told anyone. 'The virus within me has mutated and is getting worse. I'm fine for now, but it won't be long. Unless I can find my father, and force a cure out of him, I'm going to face a fate worse than death.'

Jason knew he couldn't risk that; or his friends. He had lost the one person he cared about more than anything else too, Lisa Richards, a woman who had been involved against Umbrella to the same depth as he had; until her untimely death. So, he knew, if he failed to find a cure, he would have only one option. But he couldn't dare tell anyone about that, it would be his own dark secret.

Jason wasn't the only one who was lost in thought however, Tim was deep in thought too, albeit not as gloomy as Jason's.

'I still, I still can't believe it, I get why Sappira lied and said she miscarried, to protect Amy, but it's better to know.' He thought with a sad smile. 'I can't believe I'm a father; but, but it's still amazing, how easily Amy accepted me...all of me.'

He looked down at that, still amazed. He had been absent for the early part of Amy's life and then there was his cybernetic right arm. Yet still Amy wasn't scared or anything, she accepted him, even with all his faults and for that he was proud.

He swore then, above everything. 'No matter what it takes, for Amy's sake; we will end Umbrella here. We will give her a future to life, without fear of Umbrella and their Bio-weapons.'

Looking over at Sappira, he could see she was thinking the same thing, they would do to this together, with their friends, for the future.

Lydia was also musing deeply; her mind on something other than the mission.

She was worried, more than anything. 'Shayla, why, why did she have to come; this is too dangerous for her to face as her first mission...'

She felt conflicted; Shayla was twenty-one now, an adult, but still; she was her daughter. In Lydia's eyes, Shayla was still, and always would be, her baby girl. She had been so proud when Shayla had finished her training and was officially inducted into the BSAA; yet she feared the danger such a career would put her in.

'Listen to me, the time has come for me to accept the truth, Shayla is grown up.' She told herself firmly. 'She's made her choice and is ready to stand next to me, as an equal, I couldn't ask for anything more. Who knows, maybe she'll end up returning the favour, saving me for a change.'

Just the thought of it made her smile and feel a bit more hopeful. As a result, she put her fears away, smiled as she observed Shayla and Jake, both preparing themselves and knew now was the time. The choppers were coming in to land, they had reached China.


As soon as the choppers landed and it was clear, the group disembarked and made their way to where a lone man stood, next to several large crates; they were in a clearing in a secluded and rare barely touched section of China. The man waiting for them was their BSAA contact.

"Good, you're here." He said as they approached. "Well, we better begin. Your weapons are here, take what you need, as much ammo as you can. Remember, there won't be any other ammo drops."

They all nodded; they knew this would be their only chance, everything else would have to be procured on-site. They got to work arming themselves with as much ammunition as possible, grenades, combat knives and their preferred selection of weapons. Jason equipped himself with a pair of handguns and a pair of shotguns. Tim opted for his usual handgun and a High Frequency Blade sword; his preferred weapon, meanwhile Sappira equipped her twin handguns.

David wielded the same weapons as Sappira, Cashmere only used one handgun, but paired it with twin shotguns. Lydia, Jacob and Ayame equipped themselves with a handgun each, Lydia also taking a pair of submachine guns and Ayame a bowgun. Shayla opted to use two handguns and a shotgun, Jake also took a shotgun and also grabbed a pair of submachine guns himself.

Seth meanwhile opted for a single submachine gun and single shotgun; Katrina opting for a pair of submachine guns. Dylan choose an assault rifle, Victoria pairing a handgun and shotgun while finally, Carl choose his favoured twin shotguns. Now they were all equipped they readied themselves.

"Destination coordinates?" Jason queried of their contact.

The man nodded. "Head North from here; your PDAs have all the information we can give you, you can then reach your destinations."

He paused and then walked towards the choppers which were getting ready to leave.

"I know I don't need to tell you but..." He said finally. "This is the last you'll see of us; unless you succeed, there will be no extraction choppers; so, this is it."

They nodded in agreement and so watched as the man and the choppers left. They were fully armed and ready. They advanced, splitting up to reach their intended targets. Before long, Jason and his team reached the skyscraper; they readied themselves to go inside; so far, no sign of any enemies. Team 2, led by Lydia faced a similar circumstance in leading her team to the entrance of the castle. Team 3, led by Seth, reached the hotel, again, no one was in sight; it was time to begin.

Receiving the signals from each other; they made their move and entered their target destinations, the mission had officially begun.
