Jill stood up, staring over at Brad. She spoke.

"Why can't I trust you?" She wiped the tears from her face as Brad turned, looking somewhat upset by her question. He replied.

"You can Jill! I know I haven't always been a good comrade...I know I fucked up. I know I was a wuss, but...Now, I'm not. I wanna help." Chris walked to the computer console, he looked at the switches and options on the computer. Sheva walked to where he was analysing them too. Brad silently stepped closer to Jill. He leant forward, tilting slightly so his face was level with hers. She looked at his violet eyes in curiosity. He spoke.

"You can trust me." He emphasised the word 'can' and then put his hand onto Jill's arm. She felt a shiver go up her spine, matching the equally freezing feeling of his hand. He carried on. "I'm not a bad guy because of them. And I bought those guys back to help you. Jill..." He pulled her closer as the other two were distracted. His eyes gleamed again that Lavender colour. He was strong. Stronger than he'd ever been. Jill investigated the situation as he grinned again. Now his face was very close to hers, she felt uncomfortable, but couldn't move. It was as if the room had ascended into darkness. As if everyone and everything had vanished apart from herself and Brad. Now he was standing far away from her, the whole place was black. She felt in a daze, as he turned, facing her. "Come to me Jill." He said. He was in control. She walked forward slowly, following the words, the two left the darkness.

"Jill. Brad. We have to..." Chris turned, but neither were where they were before. Chris stood, shocked. "Shit. Where the hell have they gone!" Sheva ran to the next room, then shouted to Chris. "Not here!" The two examined the area for clues as to where their team mates could have gone but found nothing. They were gone. Chris turned to Sheva, his face showing determination and worry.

"We have to find them! We can't trust Brad." Sheva searched Chris' face in concern. She replied.

"He was your partner..." Chris sighed.

"Was." He walked to the computer console. "Whatever they did to him, they changed him a lot..."

He hit the keys on the console. Sheva advanced towards Chris.

"Chris...? What are you doing?" Chris looked up at his former comrade, Forest.

"I'm bringing them back. They can help us." Sheva recoiled.

"You can't! They could be like those things outside!" Chris glared over to her, she gasped, then hung her head down. "Sorry...Chris...It's just..." Chris interrupted.

"No, Sheva, we have to try." He hit the buttons, and the first tank began to empty. The glass window descended and Forest Speyer fell from the experiment chamber. Sheva handed a blanket to Chris who lay it over Forest. His injuries were bad when he was inside the chamber but had now miraculously healed. One thing Umbrella's experiments were good for. Forest sat up, he was cold, and pale. He looked at Chris. Rubbed his eyes. Looked around. Then back at Chris, and then he spoke.

"Holy. Shit." Chris smiled at his friend.

"Forest. Buddy. How have you been?" Forest leaned against the computer.

"Eh. Been better." He looked at Chris now with a bit more analysis to his gaze. "Dude, you got buff. That's pretty rad." Sheva let out a slight giggle. Forest turned to her. She spoke.

"Rad? Aha..." Forest looked puzzled.

"Oh...I hope I can forget the 90s." Chris sat near him. He joined into the conversation once more.

"Forest. You know everything that happened?" Forest looked him up and down.

"No idea. Last I remember was I was half dead and some crows started on me...Say, you haven't got a cigarette have you?"

"No, sorry. I'll fill you in with what happened once the others are awake." Forest looked to the other test tubes.

"Shit, we really got it handed to us out there huh?" Chris looked over to Forest, before hitting the next sequence of buttons.

"We weren't prepared for that. No one was."

Everyone had been allowed out of the containers now, and so the room had become a cramped hall of previously wounded-now stark naked STARS members trying to regain full consciousness and hide the fact they were naked from the now blushing, only female, in the room Sheva. Enrico, now with a make-shift towel wrapped around walked towards Chris. He spoke.

"So, Chris. What the hell's going on?" He spoke, his deep-voice attracting the attention of the others. Chris explained the situation, he spoke about the downfall of Umbrella, about the destruction of Raccoon city, about everything that had happened. Some of the previous STARS members faces dropped when they heard of everything that had happened, their home town gone, that would mean family/friends, all gone. Joseph was busy looking around the room, for some sort of clothing as Chris spoke.

"We thought you were all dead...Hell, you were." Chris continued, noticing Joseph had found a cupboard with clothes in it. "But, he revived you." Richard spoke.

"Who...?" Chris looked up, his bright, electric-coloured eyes piercing Richard's.

"Brad." Joseph, who was now carrying a bundle of clothes out of the cupboard laughed slightly as he replied.

"Chicken-heart Vickers!" Chris looked at Joseph and then nodded reluctantly. Kenneth, who had been sitting with his head low, thinking of his wife and kids joined into the conversation.

"...What's his story then?" Chris shook his head, and replied.

"Well...I can't say I know completely. But, after the mansion incident, Brad attempted to escape town when the outbreak occurred there." Joseph piped up.

"Typical." Chris carried on.

"So, while there, Jill said that a monster was eliminating STARS members. It found Brad, and killed him...Brad's body was recovered along with yours, but due to the virus inside of him, whoever found him, enhanced him. We were sent to this laboratory because there was a 'bio-weapon' here we had to defeat. We'd nicknamed it 'Trojan' – it would hack our computers, send us wrong data, so that we would have no idea of where the virus outbreaks were happening...It was a deadly threat, so we would defeat it. When we got here. We found out it was Brad. He's Trojan. But he insisted he wanted to help us. There's something wrong though, he seemed very different. One minute he'd be usual, jumpy, Brad. The next minute he'd change...Anyway, he bought us here, he revived you guys, said he wanted to help us all. As we were analysing this area, him and Jill disappeared. We need all the help we can get, we have to find them both." Edward leaned against the side, holding a towel in front of himself, mainly for Sheva's sake. He voiced his thoughts.

"...So you're saying Brad's a bad guy?...That's kind of funny." Joseph sniggered, before Chris broke the mood.

"You two aren't taking this seriously? Wait until you meet him." The two were now serious, Joseph spoke.

"Hey, I found clothes...They're out STARS outfits. They look brand new. Mine definitely didn't look like this when I was ripped apart by dogs." Sheva, now stopping herself from blushing, replied.

"Great. Get dressed."

COOL~~~

Okay, guys, bare with me alright. I'm going to expand on how the STARS feel about everything going on in the next few chapters. Also, oh dears~ Brad's taken Jill somewhere. Next chapter may feature a little bit of Brad/Jill. What can I say, it's an inevitably paring. Also. I know that Joseph and Edward should care a little more, but they're both always the positive guys, and as I said I will be focusing on feelings much more later. Also~

I know this chapter wasn't great, I can't get my head around my Biology homework! It's crappy, seriously!

Thanks for reading, reviewing, faving etc my darlings~ More to come soon~!
