hold on to me love
you know i can't stay long
all i wanted to say was, "I love you and I'm not afraid"
can you hear me?
can you feel me in your arms?
[Chorus:]
holding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light it ends here tonight
i'll miss the winter
a world of fragile things
look for me in the white forest
hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
i know you hear me
i can taste it in your tears
[Chorus]
Closing your eyes to disappear,
You pray your dreams will leave you here;
But still you wake and know the truth,
No one is there...
Say goodnight,
Don't be afraid,
Calling me, Calling me as you fade to black.
(Say goodnight) Holding my last breath
(Don't be afraid) Safe inside myself
(Calling me, calling me) Are all my thoughts of you?
Sweet raptured life, it ends here tonight
(Chorus)
(Holding my last breath)
Evanescence, "My Last Breath"
Wow, so many re5 quotes! Anyways, the questions will be answered in the next chapter, so you had better read this! Well, joking aside, I don't have a whole lot to say about this chapter. There is a line from the first movie in here, and a sort of homage to the third movie...He could have lived man! God, that's one of the things that kills me about that movie. He could have lived, but oh no, he had to give up and just die! Sorry, I have tons to say about the movies/games, though this mini-rant was about the third movie. Anyway, please enjoy and review!
Wesker's POV:
Robin has been an excellent test subject, far surpassing my expectations, "Do it!"
She looked at Chris, allowing him a few more moments of despair, "Any last words before I get a look at your pretty brain matter?"
Chris's POV:
That bastard looked-on smugly, enjoying his game, "Do it!"
Robin looked at me, a shadow of her former self, "Any last words before I get a look at your pretty brain matter?"
I saw nothing of the woman I loved in her eyes, just an empty shell, "I don't blame you."
End of Chris's POV...
Chris looked into my eyes, searching for a Robin he knew, "I don't blame you."
He meant it, he really didn't blame me, for any of it...
I didn't lower the gun, but I did walk over to Chris, burying the muzzle in his forehead, "Chris...I...I...don't want to-"
"Kill him. Kill him now!" Wesker shouted at my back.
I gave Chris a morose smirk before pulling the trigger, "Sorry."
The gun fired, but it was no longer aimed at Chris. I had pointed it at my own heart, but the bullet missed, puncturing my arm after Chris tried to take the gun from me. The wound barely felt like a bad nick. I then realized that Wesker had injected me with something or other.
"Are you crazy?" Chris mangaed to wrench the gun from my hands.
"Poor diluted Chris, how you so love your precious self-righteousness." Wesker strolled over to pull me up by my hair, "Robin's mine now."
I struggled against Wesker's supernaturally strong grip, "Let me go!"
"You have failed me!" Wesker threw me flat against the wall with enough force to cripple an ordinary human, but I was no longer an ordinary human, now was I?
I got up like nothing and launched myself at him, leg outstretched in a drop-kick. He grabbed my leg and spun me around in the air, switching his hold from my leg to my arm. I punched his face with my free arm, kicking his side at the same time. He blocked my hit with his free hand and my kick with his knee. Chris watched us, speeding through the entire room, breaking the table as I was slammed into it like a rag doll.
"Get off your ass and help your partner!" I shouted, easily flipping around Wesker to hook my knee around a chair and toss it at his head.
Chris nodded, aiming Wesker's Samurai Edge at him, "Right!"
He fired, emptying the clip as I tried my best to force Wesker into each and every bullet, "Do you actually think you can defeat me?"
"No..." I snapped his arms, my knee breaking into his spine, "I know we can! I have something I have to do, so I can't die here!"
He tried to throw me off, but was only able to make me fly off his back to his front, "Incompetence surrounds me!"
He pulled me into the air by my neck, poised to pull out my heart. Chris undoubtedly had a series of flashbacks before running over to Wesker, tackling him into the wall.
"Chris!" I pulled him back, taking a serious blow to the heart.
"That was in your best interest. Chris, I suppose I should thank you: I have no use for weaklings like her..." Wesker fixed his jacket, turning away from me as I gasped for air on the floor.
"Wesker!" Chris set me up on the wall, "Stay here."
I grabbed his arm, pulling him back, "Wait..."
Wesker watched us, "You're only delaying the inevitable"
I bit my lip, drawing blood, "Kiss me..."
Chris obliged, giving me the kiss I missed so much, "Robin..."
Chris's POV:
I watched Wesker take a hold of Robin like he had done to me at the Spencer Estate. His hand was inches from her chest, ready to kill her. I thought of Jill, how she risked her own life to tackle him out the window. I thought that she had died for a long time before meeting up with her again in Kijuju, where she was under Wesker's control. She had fought so hard to take back control of herself, and she had succeeded. She had survived, and I knew that I would too.
"Chris!" Robin pulled me back forcefully, taking a serious blow to the heart to save my life.
"That was in your best interest. Chris, I suppose I should thank you: I have no use for weaklings like her..." Wesker acted as if she were a worthless spec of dust.
"Wesker!"I helped Robin to sit against the wall, "Stay here."
She held me back, "Wait..."
Wesker watched us emotionlessly, "You're only delaying the inevitable"
She wounded her lip so blood was trickling down her chin, "Kiss me..."
I didn't know what she was planing, but I kissed her anyway, missing the way her lips felt against mine, "Robin..."
Wesker's POV:
What had happened? Robin was obeying completely, so why didn't she kill him? How had she managed to fully regain her conscious without so much as a trace of a struggle? And what was she planning on by giving Chris her blood? What did it mean?
