Disclaimer: I don't own Resident Evil.

Hey everybody! Sorry for the long wait that I've put you through! By the way, I've put a small little blurb up in my profile, if you're interested. Anyways, thanks for waiting and thank you again to all the readers and all the reviewers. All of your comments really help me! Now, please read on!


Cormac quietly hummed as he continued to fiddle with the Inhibitor in his hands. The spider-like device let out a small spark causing the doctor to drop it onto the table in shock. He cursed underneath his breath and went to pick it up again. The noise seemed to stir the sleeping Chris Redfield next to the doctor. He looked down at the muscular man and realized that when the Redfield didn't have the Inhibitor in place, he was terrified of the BSAA agent. Now that he thought about it, he was terrified of the BSAA. And what about those three agents that Archer had mentioned? If Chris' sister was really with them, what was to stop them from killing him the moment they laid eyes on him for what he had done to their friend? He tried to shake off the thought by going back to work on the Inhibitor, but he remained on edge.

"Who…are you?" asked a hoarse voice. Cormac looked to the now awakened man and set the Inhibitor down. If it wasn't for the restraints and the fact that the Redfield was quite heavily sedated, Cormac would have never gone near the man. He swallowed his fear and spoke up.

"I'm surprised you don't remember me. I've been treating you ever since you arrived here."

"Here…?" Chris said and let his eyes wander around the room.

Flashback

The harsh lights caused him to squeeze his eyes shut once again. He swallowed trying to get rid of the dryness in his throat. He took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes, allowing them to get accustomed to the lights. A blurry form appeared hovering over him.

"Well, hello there Mr. Redfield. I see the BSAA finally caught on to our little experiments huh? So, they sent you to deal with them."

Confusion plagued the Redfield as his mind struggled to piece together what happened. He blinked to try and rid the blurriness but it didn't help at all. He tried to move, but he felt a hand hold his wrist down.

"Hold on…don't move…"

"Who are you?" he asked, his throat hurting much more now.

"I'm Dr. Cormac."

Cormac…that name was so familiar. He flashed back to a report that crossed his desk back at BSAA headquarters. Cormac…Dr. Terry Cormac…A scientist that used to work Umbrella…When Umbrella fell, he moved onto Tricell. But Tricell was gone now. After the world found out about Excella Giovanni's alliance with Wesker, Tricell became the new Umbrella. So, who was he working for now? He was pulled from his thoughts when he felt a sharp prick in his arm. He looked down to see Cormac removing a needle from the crook of his arm and immediately everything started spinning…then darkness.

"Cormac. Terry Cormac?" He said aloud.

The doctor ignored him and went over to the other side of the room. Distancing himself from the BSAA agent.

"So, who are you working for now Cormac?!" No answer. But he continued his barrage of questions. "What are they paying you to do? How much are they paying you to destroy the world?"

"I'm not doing this to destroy the world! I'm doing this for a cure!"

Chris raised an eyebrow. "A cure? A cure for what?"

"I worked for Excella and I was promised enough money to help my wife and daughter if I helped Tricell with the creation of Uroboros. Little did I know that Excella needed to test the prototype strain to see if it worked. So, she used my family!" Cormac slammed his fist on the table, causing various medical instruments to shudder. "I was tossed out on the street by Tricell the moment I finished the prototype! I didn't even have my family! Then Paragon Pharmaceutical came along…"

'Paragon? That's who he was working for?' Chris had never heard of it before and the more he tried to remember the multiple files he had read over the past month, the more confused he got.

"They told me that they had acquired my family from the ruins that was Tricell. They had put them in stasis to slow Uroboros down. They offered me anything I needed to create a cure." Cormac struggled to hold back tears. "The prototype was running rampant through their systems. I've tried to use traditional medication to stop it, but nothing's worked. So, I thought maybe another virus could stop this thing…"

"You're using the T-virus aren't you?" The T-virus was the first and only thing to come to mind. The doctor merely nodded. "So, what is Paragon getting out of it?"

The doctor looked down in shame. "An unexpected outcome of my research was a more advanced form of Uroboros. Paragon had kept close tabs on my work and told me to work on refining the virus since my cure was close to completion."

"You're going to kill millions of people, you know that right?"

"I don't want to do it! But Paragon has my family and if I don't do what they want…" He refused to finish that sentence.

"Look, just let me go. I can get the BSAA to put together a team and we can get your family back."

"No, you can't help me. You won't even be able to survive for more than 8 hours without this…" Cormac held the Inhibitor up.

"What? What do you mean?"

"Paragon needed a test subject…when you came…I'm sorry. I injected you with the advanced Uroboros. The Inhibitor is the only thing that keeps the parasite from getting out of control."

Chris felt his heart start pounding in his chest. The thought of something living and squirming inside of him made him sick. His mind flashed back to his time in Kijuju. Would he end up like those villagers?
