I totally shouldn't have went into the lab… What was I thinking?
I jumped when I heard a very loud noise downstairs. As if someone had busted open a door or something…and then there were footsteps.
I hid behind the bed and looked up a little. Two people walked in holding guns. There was an older guy with a red vest. The other was a chick with red hair pulled up in a ponytail.
Wait a sec, that's Claire Redfield!
Seeing her brought me back to deciding which was worse, losing the rest of my family to Claire and Chris, or not really having one in the first place…
I was way to deep in my thoughts and let out a short sigh.
Claire was Red-Vest came to where I was and aimed their weapons. I guess they saw my eyes and figured I was in on whatever Wesker was planning, because did they ask me if I was okay?
No. Claire grabbed me from behind and I flipped her over, slamming her into the dresser. I had to smile…that felt so good…
Red-Vest got a hold of my wrists and after some struggling, he got me into handcuffs.
"Chris, you're gonna have to come get your sister…" He spoke into his earpiece.
Chris came in after a few minutes and followed behind us, carrying Claire.
We got to the roof and entered a helicopter. Claire regained her conscience a little after we got into the air.
"Who are you?" Chris demanded.
"I'm Stacy Burnside. And you…you and your sister killed my brother…"
I was officially ready to push both Redfield's out of the helicopter, but I had just realized there were a few other people with us…
"Burnside?! Y-you're Steve's sister?! Holy crap!" Claire yelled excited.
Chris got her calmed down and turned his attention back to me.
"Okay, so then why were you with Wesker?"
"He and I escaped the Ashford's Antarctic Research Facility together before it was destroyed. And I already know your next question…my eyes. I got curious and decided to go down to the lab, and I stepped on a syringe with the T-Virus in it."
"Well, that doesn't change that he killed your brother, chica…" The Mexican guy next to Chris commented.
"What?!" I almost flipped out.
Claire punched him and I flinched when she put her hand on my shoulder.
"Look, we didn't kill Steve. Alexia Ashford injected him with the T-Veronica Virus and Wesker took his body and experimented with the virus. Trust me, I wouldn't lie about Steve…"
I didn't want to hear anymore…
I can still remember the day I found my mom dead, and Steve gone…was that Wesker too? It couldn't be…
1998...
Finally! I was getting to come home from college for a while! And my dad would be gone, thank God… He was very…abusive. Physically.
My best friend Mia (and myself) had tried to call Steve and my mother for a really long time while I was still packing but they STILL hadn't answered the freaking phone…
"Why won't Steve answer the freakin' phone?!"
Mia giggled at my frustration, "You know what I've always wondered about?"
I just stared at her.
"Your brother doesn't look Mexican AT ALL, you guys barely look the same except for your hair and skin, and he doesn't speak any Spanish. But you guys act exactly the same, you're both extreme weirdos."
"That doesn't help the situation at all, Mia!"
"Just finish packing. I'll be down the hall when your ready, love ya."
"Love you too…"
I finally finished packing and we headed out.
"Are you gonna go see your dad for the week?" I asked on the way there.
"Maybe… I'm not really sure."
"Well, you can always stay with my mom, Steve, and me. My mom really likes you, she says you're the only friend besides Gloria that's a good influence."
"That's actually kinda true…"
For the rest of the ride we just blasted Britney Spears through the speakers.
We got to my house and I was so excited as Mia and I approached the porch. I pulled out my keys and opened the door and smiled but when I saw the inside of the house, my heart dropped.
"What…" I could barely manage to get one word out as we entered the house.
"Mia, is my mom or Steve's car in the driveway?"
"Both…"
Furniture was knocked over, there was a faint blood stain on the floor, and my mom's necklace was on the floor.
I'm pretty sure Mia was as confused as I was because she didn't say anything. We checked the living room, the kitchen, and the entire downstairs. Then we decided to go upstairs and check the bedrooms, I was on the verge of punching a hole in the wall and breaking down the entire time.
We entered my parents' room and my mom was on the floor, not breathing. I automatically ran to her, knowing she was dead but not wanting to accept it. I finally burst out in tears, as did Mia.
"Why…" I whispered in-between sobs.
"What'd she do to have this happen?! Who would do this?!"
Mia became angrier with every sentence. We both came from seriously screwed up families, so my mom was like Mia's too.
I momentarily got myself together enough to talk, "Whoever did it apparently took Steve too… And I'll find out, I don't care how long it takes…"
It was silent for a while until the girl with real short brown hair decided to introduce herself, "Hi, I'm Rebecca Chambers."
Soon enough everyone else followed her action.
Red-Vest - Barry Burton.
The Mexican - Carlos Olivera.
The brunette with the ponytail dressed in almost all blue - Jill Valentine.
The tank top guy doing Mr. Pocket-hands - Billy Coen.
The really cute guy with epic hair - Leon S. Kennedy.
I slapped on a fake smile and tried to forget about what Claire had said about Wesker and Steve.
We landed and as everyone got out, Barry un-cuffed me. "Thanks."
Inside, above the front desk, was the B.S.A.A. logo. (Bio-terrorism Security Assessment Alliance) People were staring at me like I was breast-feeding an alien baby. I gave back the best tough chick look I could and most of them looked away. I chuckled softly and Billy shook his head. I nudged him and rolled my eyes. I could tell he wasn't as tense as everyone else…
We entered Chris' office and everyone but me sat down. "What do you want?"
"You could be useful." Chris replied.
"Uh, did that answer my question?"
"Where is Wesker?" He asked, walking to me.
"He should've been in the same building you guys found me in."
"Your lying." Unconvinced, he threw a fist at me. I smirked as I caught his fist in my mine right in front of my face.
"Anything else you wanna try, Redfield?"
"You sound exactly like him…" Chris exited the room extremely pissed off.
"I'm so sorry. Chris and Wesker absolutely hate each other…" Jill apologized.
"It's all good."
"Wesker's probably gone already gone… We should just keep going." Leon suggested.
All of the sudden there was an explosion that created a hole in the wall. We were all knocked to the ground. I saw someone walk through it and they helped me up.
Wesker…
