Here is chapter 8 for daybreak, enjoy Chapter nine will be up soon.
Leon laid in bed reviewing the previous days excitement and as much fun he had with Nicole looking at the clock it read 9:30 PM he sighed not bothering to cover his nudity as he moved to the shower to get cleaned up. He took one last look at Nicole as she laid in his bed a smile painted on her face turning he moved into the shower and rested his head against the cool tile knowing he was going to have a rough time. Closing his eyes he tries to mentally prepare himself for the mission which is to take place only a few hours from then as the water turns cold he opened his eye revealing the cold agent as he steps from the shower he dries off and gets dressed looking to the clock he sees 10:00 PM, moving over he kisses Nicole and she smiles as she looks up at him.
He smiles "Hey baby" and kisses her again.
She returns the kiss "Hey" then looks to the clock and her smile falls "Is it time?"
He nods "Yeah, Matt is probably waiting for us right now."
She nods and gets up and moves to the bathroom Leon tried to warn her that the hot water was out but she didn't take the time to listen, he winced as she screamed that the water was cold and as she stepped out of the bathroom he could tell she was pissed and wisely steps out of the way as she step back into the room. As she got dressed Leon watched her come toward him he was prepared to receive the slap but was given a kiss instead with that they moved out of the house and to his truck. Getting they held hands as they rode to her house where she had set up her temporary line to them getting out Leon and Nicole spend the next few minuets in and embrace until his watched beeped signaling it was time to go. Giving her a kiss before climbing back into his truck he sighed heavily as he pulled away from her house and rode to the rendezvous point with Matt shutting off the lights as he pulled up next to his SUV Leon jumped out and made his way over to the Helo pad where he saw Matt prepping the Helo for takeoff.
Leon jumped into the passenger side as Matt started the engine Leon placed his head against the glass as they lifted into the air it would be quite a flight for the two agents Leon closes his eye for a bit of sleep, but for Matt his thought were too occupied as he piloted the vehicle. He knew it would only be a matter of time before they crossed into Cuban airspace but his thoughts were far from the mission but were on his daughter and he was hoping that he would get to find Steve and exact his revenge on the youth for killing the mother of his child. Matt was so wrapped in his thoughts that he didn't notice as they passed over into Cuban airspace until he saw the shanty homes looking to his GPS they had just a bit more to go and he looked over to wake Leon.
Leon woke with a start as Matt shook him looking over the landscape he put the head set on "How far?"
Looking to his watch "We will be landing shortly" as he started the descent.
Leon nodded and they flew toward a heavily wooded area and landed in a clearing shutting the engine down they got out and grabbed their weapons before heading to the mission site, after traveling a few miles they came to what looked to be a shed in the middle of the jungle, looking to his watch Matt held up to fingers indicating they had two minuets before they go in that time Leon open his communicator to let Nicole they are in position. As the watch beeped Leon grabbed on to Matt and closed his eyes as Matt sprang forward with inhuman speed and stop at the door after entering they are greeted by three hallway to which they split up, taping there guns together Matt takes the right while Leon goes left.
Leon encounter no resistance due to the shift change to which he was grateful putting that out of his mind as he searched frantically for Sherry, he stopped short seeing a four way up ahead he started moving slowly and raised his weapon quickly as two figures stepped around the corner one was dressed in a black combat suit while the other was covered with white sheet. The figure in black heard the chambering round and looked up and before he could move Leon shouted "Don't move" the man was about to change when he was stopped by a small hand Leon was startled to hear the voice.
"Daddy" sherry lifted her head and at the sight of Leon her eyes filled with tears.
Leon's eyes did the same and holstered his weapon as she charged him and wrapped her arms around him, he embraced her stroking her hair and kissed her forehead "Hey there angel."
Steve watched on at the reunion with a smile before he hearing Wesker's voice come over the com ordering an evacuation, moving quickly he grabbed the two and started toward the door to get out the fastest way. Leon was skeptical to trust him but with Sherry following him with a smile Leon decided to let it go for the moment but he had the feeling something bad was about to happen and he was right as they stepped into a large open room. Leon heard two people talking but couldn't make out what was said so leaning over the rail he saw Matt stripping down to his tactical pants and then throw his weapons to the side a few paces in front of him he saw who could only be Wesker doing the same.
Matt inwardly smirked at how cowardly Wesker's men were and just stepped to the side as he passed and one had the decency to lead him to Wesker to which he figured was going to happen. As he stepped into the large open room he saw Wesker standing there with a scowl on his face stopping a few feet away Matt sized him up and knew this wasn't going to be an easy fight and smirked because he loved a challenge. His smirk widened as the other man's eyes burned through his shades Matt dropped the smirk and spoke clearly.
"So you must be Wesker."
The Man nodded "Yes, and you are Mr. Hale if I am correct."
He smirked and bowed never taking his eyes off of him "Guilty as charged" before righting himself, "Now should we settle this with guns or like men?"
Wesker laughed "I am no man but I will humor you."
Matt chuckled "I am no man either but I still call myself one" as he began to remove his weapons.
Wesker frowned as he mimicked the actions and threw his coat away as Matt removed his vest and shirt "Lets begin shall we" taking a boxers stance.
Matt smirked and took a MMA stance "Lets."
Leon watched the fight or tried to for the two inhuman combatants moved far to fast for his eyes looking to Steve who was blinking rapidly apparently he couldn't follow the fight either. Hearing the clang he looked down and saw Matt holding Wesker up by his throat against a wall before Wesker kicked him in the chest sending him away, in an instant the two disappeared from sight again. After a few minuets they began to slow down with fatigue but there strikes were still up to full power. Neither was gaining or losing ground as they continued to fight Leon looked up as a siren went off declaring that the self destruct system was activated and they didn't have long to get out, looking back down he saw the two staring each other down both calm and collected.
Matt yelled not looking away from his adversary "Leon, take them and get out."
Leon was shocked "What about you?"
He Growled and yelled louder "TO HELL WITH ME GO!"
Leon growled and ordered the two to get out with Leon hot on their heels, Matt sighed heavily and stared at Wesker before charging him again the. During his trek through the facility he had the strange feel he would not make it out and had come to terms with it as he fought with Wesker that thought had become even more real and he knew only one would walk away but he was going to make sure neither did, he fought with everything he had and by the end of the fight he had Wesker beaten and the ground writhing in pain though he was not unharmed he fought with his breathing to control his pain he knew something was ruptured and he was dying. Moving over to his things he grabbed his gun and made his back to Wesker who could only look up his face badly beaten and covered with blood, raising his weapon Matt aimed at his head and started shooting emptying the clip into his head.
Reaching the door Matt finally collapsed Saying a silent prayer for his daughter and to Christina, the doors opened and he saw her unable to speak as she kneeled down and placed her hands on his face she spoke.
"Matthew" he only stared up at her "Matt you have to get up."
He sighed "Christina I'm dying, I can't move" he lowered his head "I failed not only you but our daughter as well."
He felt her hands on his face forcing him to look at her voice stern "You listen to me Matthew, you get off this ground and go to our daughter. She needs you if only for you to say goodbye. Now get up soldier."
With that she disappeared Matt grunted as he lifted himself up arms around his middle he made his way through the facility, he collapsed again as he got to the outside being to weak to continue he felt himself lifted off the ground as he drifted in and out of consciousness. Leon and Steve had gotten Sherry to the helo and something told them to go back and as they did they found Matt on the ground badly beaten blood coming out of his mouth lifting the broken mans form they carried him back to the helo where Steve jumped into the pilot seat and started it. The base exploded as they got into the air rattling the helo but he managed to keep it in the air. Leon looked into the back as Sherry tended to Matt he smiled and placed the head set on and looked out over the horizon just as the sun had risen and one word escaped his lips "Daybreak."
