Piers POV
It was a few days after the incident in Edonia, after the deaths of my worthless teammates, Chris was still at the hospital unconscious. Walking through the white halls of the hospital, I tried to keep my face completely blank, void of any emotions while I head towards Chris' room. Hopefully the Captain will be finally awake; I remember thinking that to myself before opening the door. Something was wrong. Very wrong. Looking around the room carefully, the bed was a complete mess, the table was flipped over, spilling the nasty hospital food all over the floor. I looked around for any sign of Chris and noticed his clothes were gone, the ones I left for him last night when they forced me to leave. My fists were tight, knuckles white, my teeth were gritted together to stop myself from screaming out orders. Where is he! Where the hell could he have gone! Those thoughts screaming in my head like a raging storm waiting to be unleashed.
"Sanders!" I yelled out the name to a rookie that has been assigned under my command while Chris was still in the hospital.
The rookie quickly ran over to me with fear in his eyes when he saw my angered expression. He looked over into the room with wide eyes when he realized that Chris Redfield was gone from his room. Taking a slow, deep breath, calming myself down before I break the rookie's nose out of anger; I looked over at the rookie.
"Get as many men as you can. Create search parties and look through every fucking thing you can find. If you don't find him nor any trace of him, I will make your life a living hell. Do you understand, Sanders?" I tilted my head to the side while the rookie's face paled instantly before yelling out a 'Yes, Sir!' while running away. Looking back at the empty room, I gave a bitter laugh while running a hand through my hair.
"You can't hide from me, Captain. I will find you. I will hunt you down…"
Leon POV
"Everyone, get into teams of four and spread out! We need to find the culprit and bring him down before he kills. He is armed and very dangerous. Do NOT underestimate him for a second!" I shouted out the orders while the entire base was on red alert, several soldiers were gearing up while I was getting a few supplies as well. I pulled out my phone, quickly calling a number that I haven't used in a while.
"Chris here." His voiced was filled with a bit of laughter while I could hear, what sounded like Claire, in the background.
"Chris, its Leon. We need to talk now." I waited a few moments while Chris was talking to Claire about him taking a call outside.
"What is it? Did something happen to Piers?" His worried tone towards the young man made me sad for a moment before taking a deep breath.
"Chris, he-" There was a sudden gun shot that rang through the call as my heart sunk instantly.
"Claire!" Chris yelled out before there was a thump, probably the phone falling from Chris' hand.
"Chris! Chris, what's happening?" I shouted out into the phone like a mad man, I could hear faint sounds and Chris shouting out for Claire. Shit, did Piers made his first move already?
"Every team, head towards Captain Redfield's apartment, now! Shots have been fired!" I stayed on the line in case Chris returned to the call, meanwhile running towards a vehicle with three other soldiers with me. Checking my handguns and my ammo supply, I gave a silent pray that Chris would hold out until we get there. Piers have turned into a B.O.W. just like the rest of them, no longer the young sniper the B.S.A.A has always known.
Chris POV
"Chris, he-" I couldn't hear him when a gun shot rang through the apartment building. Often there were gun shots around the neighborhood but not like this. The gun shot were in coming from my apartment right behind me, my heart dropped as I dropped the cellphone.
"Claire!" I burst opened the door to see my sister lying down on the floor, her eyes wide open, staring down at her leg. Wait, leg? I ran over to her before noticing that her right leg was dismembered right where her knee used to be. Blood was covering the floor as she yelled out in pain while I wrapped my arms under her own arms to drag her away before another shot barely missed my head. Shit, there was a sniper out there and judging by his aim, he was very well trained. Claire bit into my arms to stop herself from screaming out; I had to stop the bleeding. I tried to reach for something to stop the bleeding but another shot was fired right near Claire's left leg.
There was hardly anything I can do, as along as the sniper was out there waiting for us. If it could possibly get worse, the lights in the apartment started to flicker before everything goes completely black. I pulled Claire away for a moment to pull out my shirt, pressing it against the nasty wound while Claire let out another painful scream. We been through worse like gun shots but never a dismembered limb, the pain must be too much while I watch my baby sister crying in pain.
"Stay with me, Claire! I'm here and I won't let anyone hurt you. Keep holding on to me, help is on the way." Hopefully by now, Leon would be on his way over here with medics. Just need to hold out until he comes. Claire just whimpered in pain and held on to me with her nails digging into my skin. I kept up the pressure to stop the bleeding while Claire was crying on my chest. I didn't know where the sniper was nor if he was even aiming at us. I can't risk it, not when Claire is the supposed target. Leon, hurry the fuck up! I could hear the tenants on this floor all hiding away except for the faint sounds of a single pair of footsteps heading towards us.
"Claire, try not to make a sound." I whispered into her ear as she nodded slowly, trying her best not to make a whimper escape her lips. I held her close and tried to figure out where the footsteps are located. However, it was too late. The door burst opened and I covered Claire with my body, not letting the enemy see her. There were no footsteps and there was hardly any light to see who it was.
"AH!" I scream out as I felt like I was being electrocuted; my body shaking out of my control as I felt like I was losing conscious before I could no longer hear anything nor feel anything at all. All I remember was whispering my sister's name before everything went blank.
