10 minutes and several mutants later, everyone was given a clean bill of health at the temporary military base. Eva was currently bottle feeding the baby in the medical tent while everyone else was tossing around theories on how the infection could have spread. Angela and Mathers had just come in and had a theory of their own.
"We found a biohazard suit on the first floor with a clean tear in it. If a sample of the t-virus is in the building, the person who owned the cut suit may have been the first infected." Mathers said. All of a sudden, a scream erupted from the medical tent. Everyone raced out. A harsh wind was blowing everywhere, but through his squinted eyes, Tanner could make out the figure of his daughter in the "shock box", a bullet and break-proof glass enclosure that would have electricity circulate around it that was designed to kill virus victims as humanely as possible. Tanner's paternal instinct went into overdrive and he raced towards his daughter, but was held back by several marines.
"Let me go damn it! That's my daughter in trouble!"
"Sir it's not safe! You could get harmed yourself!"
"Screw it! I'm not gonna let my baby die!"
From what Tanner could see, Eva was on her hands and knees, her hair obscuring her face. When she looked up, her eyes were once again (Whenever she used her powers in a high standard) dark yellow, her pupils in slits. But they were slowly turning into an icy blue. Tanner couldn't hear, but it looked like Eva was screaming "don't come closer". A technician ran over to a power generator and shut it off. The electricity stooped and Eva finally collapsed. The door was broken down and Tanner rushed inside and gathered Eva in his arms so he could take her to a doctor.
-----------------------------------
"Miss Evangeline Tanner, from the evidence found, was forced into the shock box in an attempt to be killed by someone on this base." Graham had rallied everyone present on the base so that he could give a speech on the consequences, Tanner by his side. "This is a serious matter that needs to be resolved as quickly as possible. Major General." Tanner stepped up.
"To the low life who tried to kill my little girl, when I find you, you will not only be discharged without honours. You'll leave black and blue all over. But if you step up now, your punishment will be a little less painful." No one spoke. "Fine then. Dismissed." A medic ran up as everyone left.
"Sir! Your daughter has just woken up and your wife is here." Tanner ran out of the area so fast you couldn't see his feet. When everyone else entered, Tanner was hugging his wife and daughter to death.
"As nice as this moment is, I'm gonna go out for some air." Eva said.
"I'm not sure baby." her mother said.
"Mom, you worry too much, I'm perfectly fine." Eva smiled, only to have that sentence contradicted when she walked headfirst into a pole. Claire held Eva up when she staggered. "See? Nothing to be afraid of."
"Sir, with your permission, we would like to conduct a few tests' on Eva to check her condition and see if any permanent damage was done." The head doctor said. But before Tanner could reply, Eva interrupted.
"Uh uh. No way."
"Eva please." Her mother pleaded,
"I said no! I'm okay!"
"Eva, we have to see if anything else unusual is going on in your body." The doctor said.
"Eva." The girl looked at her father. "I got you government protection for a reason, and these doctors won't do anything to violate it." Eva huffed.
"Alright." She said reluctantly.
-------------------------------------
Eva came out an hour later in a new outfit her mother bought. A sleeveless printed top, arm warmers, denim shorts and her navy Converse Chucks. She pulled a leather jacket over her frame as her father walked in.
"How're you feeling darlin'?" he asked in his southern drawl.
"Fighting fit." She said, slipping her guns in a back holster similar to Leon's, her hunting knife strapped to her leg.
"Benjamin, I'm here! Oh..."
Eva only had to take one look at the woman for her eyes to change to their new colour.
"You." She growled.
--------------------------------
"I need a long vacation after this, and so do you." Claire said, looking at Leon. Leon looked up slightly at the Tricell map he was marking.
"As much as I would like to, when this mess is over, I have to do my job and get the President home to D.C. safely."
"Why do you work yourself so hard Leon? Is something on your mind? You can tell me." Leon looked into Claire's blue eyes. There was something in his mind. But he couldn't tell her. Not now.
"You have quite the nerve coming here you slut!" A voice, Eva's, screamed, ruining the moment. The pair went outside and they were quite surprised to see Eva confronting Ada Wong.
