Hey Guys I'M BACKKKKKK! I am so sorry for not updating this story for the last few months. I've was super busy with school, friends, life, etc. Anyway This chapter to me feels like its more of a filler chapter because after this chapter I wont be able to do stuff for this story for awhile. I'll post up an AN chapter after this to explain everything. This chapter is in Chris's POV and he explains what happened after he was rescued after the game. Thanks for the reviews and remember to review and follow this story.

Chapter 3:

Time Flies

Chris's P.O.V.

It's been six months since I got my memory back; six brutal and agonizing months. After the incident in China, I was rescued by a B.S.A.A. Copter and brought back to HQ where I had to debrief them about Edonia, my disappearance, and China, as well as give them the names of those that died on my team including Piers. Piers, that name still haunts me to this day. A few days after my debrief, I was sent to inform his older sister Sam about his death, I can still remember her screaming after she found out.

FLASHBACK:

Date: July 5th 2013

Time: 2:05 pm

I stood outside the apartment # that was given to me, as it turns out Piers sister lives in D.C. 15 minutes away from both her work and HQ. It's due to the fact that she works for one of the companies that helps funds the B.S.A.A.

I stood there for a couple of minutes pondering on how I was going to break the news to her about Piers's death, I checked to make sure I looked decent I wore my standard suit with the pin that represents my rank as well as a couple of my awards throughout the years. I combed my hair which was usually a mess and I had shaven this morning.

Once I was done, a thought occurred to me; Piers's death was my fault. I mean really; I convinced him to join the B.S.A.A. I also put him on my unit when he joined and he sacrificed his life to save mine. As I think about it again, he lost his arm and injected himself with the C-VIRUS afterward to save me, for the future is what he told me before he pushed me into the escaped pod. Maybe it should have been me instead of Piers; that way, I could save everyone the trouble of where I am, but then again, I would be able to see Barry, Rebecca, Claire, Carlos, Sheva, Leon, Josh, or Jill again.

Jill. I think everyone that was hurt by my disappearance she's probably hurt the most with Claire coming in second. With Claire she's my little sister so she's always about me and my job, but with Jill, its different. Not only has she been through the same hell I've been through, she's been my partner and my friend since the day I meet her. I've always considered her a friend until she was declared "dead" for 3 years back in 2006. That's when I realized what was important to me was there the whole time. I'd do anything to change what happened, make it so that way I didn't lose my memory, not losing all my men during Edonia and China including Piers. Maybe then after everything I could have told Jill how I've felt about her this whole time and hopefully she would have felt the same way.

My thoughts were cut short by the sound of the door to the apartment being opened and voice asking, "Can I help you?" I looked to see Pier's sister Sam at the door. She looked to be in her late twenties. She had hazel eyes, her hair color was the same as Piers's and was in a ponytail. She wore a white button up shirt , a black business jacket and a black skirt to match. Even though she and Piers didn't talk that much she worried about him because of this job. It's funny; their relationship reminds me of my relationship with Claire, even the roles are the same. Claire worries about me and my job and Sam does the same with Piers.

I cut my thoughts short and cleared my throat and asked, "Sam Nivens?"

She replied , "Yes, what is it?"

"Ms. Nivens, my name is Chris Redifeld, I'm the captain of Alpha team for the B.S.A.A., the same unit-the same unit Piers was on."

Her eyes had widen and her mouth became slightly ajar after I finished my sentence. I noticed her hands were starting to shake and she started stuttering trying to speak. Finally she responded after a couple of seconds asking me, "Wh-what do you mean the unit Piers was on?" She could tell what I was going to say next because I could see the tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

"During our mission in China, Piers he-he sacrificed his life to save-to save me, not a day goes by where his death doesn't haunt me. He was a good soldier, a good man, but most importantly he was a good friend and I'm sorry for your loss." After I finished she looked at me. It took her a moment to process what I said and when she did, she collapsed to her knees and she screamed, "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I knelt down beside her and pulled her into hug and she put her head on my shoulder and continued to bawl her eyes out.A couple week after that came his funeral. Everyone come and spoke even at one point I saw Jill. Thankfully I was able to avoid her throughout the whole thing as much as wanted to talk to her I couldn't because I knew the moment I tried to speak to her she would kill me. At the end Sam spoke, it must have been difficult for her because the last time they saw each other was back in the summer of 2010 to celebrate her birthday.

End of Flashback

After his funeral for the last six months, I've been traveling the world mission after mission, avoiding contact with friends and family. So imagine my surprise when my boss told me that I've been working too hard and forced me to take the holidays off. I wanted to argue with him, but deep down I knew he was right. I deserved this after the hell I went through. So a couple of days after my meeting with my boss I took the first flight back to DC. It felt weird coming back to DC after everything that happened, but I knew it was about time I came back to face the inevitable, face those that were hurt by my disappearance, face my mistakes, my friends and family. I just hope that they can forgive me overtime, realize that it wasn't really my fault and maybe I can finally tell Jill how I feel. When I landed I knew I would have to start facing my demons soon and those who were hurt, I just didn't figure it would be today of all days and face of them today. Rebecca Chambers.

Well there you have it. The next chapter will be in Chris's POV and we will see his encounter with Rebecca and Billy. And it will the next character. Remember to please review and follow the story. Again I am so sorry I didn't update when I could and I won't be able to for awhile. Until next time, InfaRedfield signing off.
