Intentions

Chris continued to tail Ada secretly as if he was the spy. Ada had to suppress a giggle every so often she caught a glimpse of Chris behind her hiding but peeping behind walls. It was in fact hard for her to pay attention to Jill while she was explaining the different areas of the building.
Ada tried to blend into the group as well because Chris was ultimately getting on her nerves, it was more amusing for her to chase than to be chased in such an unskillful manner, Leon does it better.
Finally the mini group reached the visual board room and the doors closed but just before they did Ada gave Chris a mocking wave of goodbye but she knew she was pressing her luck with him. Jill proceeded to showing the group a 45 minute film divided on the life of a BSAA soldier and the different viruses.
"Damn it!" Chris couldn't contain the anger and irritation Ada caused him, he wanted to break down the door and strangle her but he knew better. He wouldn't risk letting everyone else know that Ada was able to waltz right in under their noses, not that it mattered if anyone knew her, he pondered Ada was always free from guilt, her record was clean the last time he checked. Though, he wanted the first word on the matter; he wanted to question her one on one. He threw his hands in the air and later smoothed his hair back with his finger to try to relax. Well at least she can't do anything harmful while she in that room, he contemplated.
Chris stood in front of the door a little while longer and thought some more. After the film Jill takes the group to the fifth floor, I could wait in my office and yes...I'll intercept her from there, she won't escape me this time and with that thought Chris sprinted back up stairs. He waited patiently inside his office with the front door slightly opened for his prey. It was of the utmost importance that he figured out what Ada's intentions were.
After the film was over Jill stood up and went to the front of the room. She wanted to know what made each and every one of these individuals join the BSAA for people weren't so keen to join something that constantly consisted of life threatening peril. "I'm just curious," Jill began to say, "this is one of the biggest groups I've ever had the opportunity to give the tour to and I would just like to know what made you take the decision to join the BSAA?" Her eyes were pensive and looking around the small room at each one of their faces.
One of them raised their hand a small female expressed she was tired of bio-terrorist attacks, another expressed that they lost their family in an attack. One by one spoke their reason for being here except Ada.
Ada looked at everyone in the room who commented a story but it wasn't in her heart to tell quote a sob story unquote, she was a naturally reserved person who never expressed much and especially any sign of weakness. Plus it was in her best interest not to mention her motive for being here especially when there was a strong possibility of her being caught and or killed on this mission, her intentions; she decided, would be guarded with her life.
Jill gave up on a response from Ada and signaled everyone out of the room. They continued with the last part of the tour by reaching the offices on the upper level. Jill continued to explain about each entity that resided in every office while Ada thought that all offices were a mine filled with valuable information. Imagine all the important, maybe even classified documents each office contained in those gray and boring filing cabinets, Ada thought to herself as she walked slowly by the offices, unnoticing she had fallen behind the group once more.
She's just standing there? Ada was still there looking at the ceiling but Chris guessed that she was deep in thought and that she was disconnected from her body. He couldn't help but look at her from head to toe and admire her effortless beauty. Just as quick as those thoughts came they left and Chris took advantage of Ada's distraction to pull her silently into the room.
He covered her mouth and grabbed her arm in his crushing grip and slammed her against the wall. Ada's eyes rolled slightly before focusing on Chris's dark glare. "What the hell are you doing here?" Ada simply glared at him but then her eyes narrowed and looked as if they were smiling at him. He growled at her in complete aggravation and took his hand from her mouth but placed it around her throat.
Ada coughed to clear her throat and spoke, "I need a job and I don't need to explain my…" Chris squeezed her throat incapacitating her to continue; just the sound of her arrogant angel-like innocent voice infuriated him even more. Ada was turning from red to purple as the minutes ticked bye; Chris's grip was crushing her, he was imaging what he should have done when Carla had asked for refuge to them. Chris couldn't help but feel that resentment he had for Carla but channel it through Ada.
She struggled and flailed but she tried to serene herself long enough to concentrate and land a kick. With the last of an un-blurry glimpse she threw a solid kick to Chris's inner thigh making him release her. He collapsed on to his good knee and winced slightly because of the deep sting rising. Ada quickly took a few steps back and coughed harshly and tried to regularize her breathing but her eyes didn't leave Chris who was already recuperated from the blow and coming towards her.
Jill finished the tour by saying they could go to the cafeteria and get something to eat. Jill let everyone pass ahead to board the elevators when she noticed Ada was missing. "Has anyone seen Ada?" How was it possible that woman who stands out so much get lost so quickly? Jill contemplated annoyed.
"She was staring at a door over there but then she disappeared." Said Lilly who was already inside the elevator, the door closed and didn't give Jill anytime to respond.
She walked back to where Ada supposedly was when she heard an excess of coughing on the other side. She looked at the plaque on the door reading it was Chris's room; she put her hand on the knob but when she turned it-it was locked. Jill yanked on it harder when she felt the coughing worsen on the other side and she worried. She took one step back, inhaled and gave her leg a mighty sweep and landed an unyielding kick on the door.
The door simply fell forward which let Jill see into the room and at first glance she saw Ada hunched over grasping her neck and Chris standing tall and dangerous, his fist was bald up and his eyes were murderous. She simply looked back and forth to the two of them; the situation confounded her so much she didn't even know what to think.
"What's going on?" She question. When no one replied her eyes shifted and she suspected treason on behalf of both of them. "What's going on?" She demanded.
A/N: Some of you might hate me for this cliffhanger, sorry... (:D)
Yup Ada's inside the dog house now and in a heap of trouble and so is Chris, being caught red-handed...
What do you all think is going to happen?
To answer some lovely reviews:
The95Will:Thank you so much for that advice. When I created Raul I thought about Ada being alone and it sounded to be sort of boring so I wanted to give her a friend in a helpful way. I'll keep on trying to depict Ada and everyone else as human as possible and of course I'll have some spontaneous moments thrown in (I'll keep in mind what you said about Ada, Courtney Taylor is amazing by the way ahaha...). Thank you So much! :D
Ashley Gaines: Thanks for that and I hope you continue to enjoy the story thus far! ;D
Shantty:Hola sis! Thanks for that, I'm glad that you think my narrative has improved and gotten much better. You know the writing style is becoming easier for me every time. I'm glad you liked the bit with Chris and Jill, oh Ada is in big trouble this chapter though... Thanks and keep reading (;D)
Well everyone, it's been a blast and I do hope you enjoyed this chapter and thanks to those of you who take the time write a review I appreciate it immensely! 'Till next update!
