"Remus, what's wrong with your arm?! Did something happen? Why aren't you telling me," Vic asked as she held onto his left arm. Remus flinched when she touched his arm; she tugged him back, stopping him. "Vic, please…I don't want to tell you," He said gently prying her hand from his arm.
"No, you are going to tell me, Remus, please, I'm worried about you," She said, she glanced at his arm. "Why are you hiding you arm from me? Something happened I know, just please, show me," Vic said, a pained look showing on her face. Remus sighed and nodded.
Vic gave him a soft smile and lifted his left arm, and began to tug the sleeve up, bunching it at the elbow. She gasped as she saw his mangled arm. Three spines lay on the outside of his arm, the arm itself was muscled and lean hinting at immense strength. Because of the spines on the side of his arm being flat against the arm itself, it gave the elbow the illusion that there was a large spike coming out of the elbow.
She looked at his now ice blue eyes rimmed with pale indigo. "Oh, Remus…This is nothing serious. After all, you love me don't you?" Vic said, grinning. Remus started and looked away, his pale face flushed with color. He sniffed. "Yeah…" He muttered as he looked over at Leon and the others, who had stop to look at them. "Well, then you arm shouldn't be a problem should it? No, it shouldn't. Now, shut up about it, hold my hand, and let's get the hell out of here!!" Vic snapped, grabbing hold of his left hand and dragging him forward, pass the others.
Remus heard Leon snicker as he passed him and groaned. They made it in minutes and stood before the tram car. "Does anyone know how to drive this thing?" Vic asked looking over her shoulder. Ada stepped forward, "I can. Everyone just get on board, I'll get the engine started." They started to get on, leaving Remus to be the last on to get on. He started forward about to get on, but he stopped looked to his left, then his right and saw something slither onto the tram car. Remus blinked and shook his head, thinking he was just seeing things.
Before he could step a foot onto the tram car a siren went off. "Bio-Hazards Detected. Self-Destruct in T-Minus 15 Minutes." Remus jumped on and looked around. Everyone was looking at him. "What?! I didn't do it!! I wasn't even on the damn tram!!" Remus said, waving his hands. "Well, if it wasn't you then who would it be?!" Leon said, crossing his arms over his chest.
"I don't kn--" Remus began to say before a loud slam turned their attention to the tram car connected to the first one. "Leon, do you still have that rocket launcher?"
"Yeah, why?"
"You're about to find out," Remus said as he kept looking at the door leading back. "If you want to keep it then just come with me then. Ada, Claire, stay here and look after Vic and Sherry. What ever you do. Do. Not. Let. This. Tram. STOP," He said looking over his shoulder as he opened the door. A tentacle slithered out and grabbed Remus pulling him through the doorway.
The tentacle slammed him against the ground, knocking the air from his lungs. He was slammed again, this time against the wall, denting it. "LEON!! Shot it!!" Remus yelled out as it threw him against the wall near Leon. Remus slid down and gasped for air. Leon pulled the rocket launcher from the pack on his back, aimed and fired at the gelatinous mass.
The tram shook from the force of the rocket hitting its target. The smoke blurred Leon's and Remus' field of vision and both silently hoped that the monster was dead. Their hopes were dashed as a tentacle lashed out hitting Leon in the chest. Okay, not good…I have no gun…Everyone else does…Can't go back, can't let it past me. Damn, it looks all the part of H.P. Lovecraft's Shoggoth, Remus thought as a larger tentacle wrapped itself around his neck.
Remus clawed at the extension before digging the fingers of his left hand into the slick tentacle around his neck. The monster let out a gurgled screeched before dropping him heavily onto the floor. Remus moved himself towards Leon and shook him awake. "Come on!! Wake up!! Leon," Remus called as he turned to look over his shoulder. He almost hurled when he saw one of the many arms attached to its body flail before going still again.
"Oh fuck this!!" Remus growled as he drew Leon's other gun and began to fire at the creature. He snarled and the spikes on his left arm bristled. Remus looked own at him arm and grinned savagely as he slashed the tentacles coming towards him and Leon. He sliced the ones closest and they fell, twisting and twirling on the ground.
Remus continued to fire and slash, before the chamber clicked dry. "Damn," He muttered before throwing the gun at it. "T-Minus 5 Minutes before detonation," The over-com said. "Sonavabitch," Remus cursed under his breath. The train lurched forward sending Remus to the ground, and causing Leon to hit his head. Remus cursed again and lifting Leon and threw him over his shoulder. "I bid you adieu, Uncle," Remus said he said standing to his feet.
"T-Minus 2 minutes," The over-com said, as Remus ran through the door and leapt out of the tram car and began to run. He saw Vic and the others up ahead to and within seconds had caught up with them. "Fuck yeah, super speed!!" Remus crowed as the train behind them exploded. Shrapnel flew from the tram car and the emergency brake flew and embedded itself into Remus' stomach.
Remus lurched to the ground as Leon fell from his shoulder. Remus rolled over onto his back and clutched the slender piece of metal as he groaned in pain. "Damn…That hurts…" He gasped out. "Remy!! Oh no…Not again…Please stay awake!!" Vic said holding his hand. "Cousin Remy…Are you going to be alright?" Sherry asked, worried as she saw blood gush from the stomach wound.
"Yeah, I'll…I'll be fine…" Remus gasped out. "Hey, Vic? Do I…Get a good-bye kiss before you leave?" Vic shook her head and smiled, "Yeah, You do deserve one don't you?" She leaned down and kissed him. Remus ran his hand through her hair, thankfully not snagging any with his claws. She pulled back and Remus gave her a large grin, "Ah, my first kiss…I hope it's not…The last one I get," He said, as he coughed.
"No, you dunce, it's not the last one you get," Vic said, brushing his hair back from his sweat dampened face. "Good, I…Intend to get more…" Remus said, as he took a deep breath and coughed again, blood started to foam at the corners of his mouth.
"Claire, wake Leon…And leave…I don't think…I'll be moving too much for a while," Remus said. "We're not going to leave you behind, Remus!!" Claire said, looking down at him. Remus smiled, "I'll…Be back…I just need a little rest…I'll be behind you…This won't kill me, I'll heal," He said as he took a breath and tugged at the metal bar.
It came loose enough so he could breathe better. "See? I'm healing already…Just go, I'll be behind you. Don't wait up…This might be a while," He said as they nodded. Leon had woken up slightly and moaned. "Sleeping Beauty is awake? I'm…Shocked," Remus said, smirking. "Fuck you…Man, this is the worst hang-over I ever had…" Leon mumbled as he stood.
"Let's go, we'll wait for you, Remus…" Claire said as they began to walk to the outside of the tunnel. When they were out of sight, his hands fell limply at his sides. He was exhausted and he felt horrible for lying to them. "Well…Maybe I can stay dead this time…" Remus muttered as his vision began to fog. "Die again? No, no, no that will simply not do," A man's deep voice said nearby.
Remus opened his eyes blearily as he looked up. He saw a man dressed in black with blonde hair and sunglasses. "Who…Are you?" Remus said, his voice leaving him. "I am a friend. You may call me Albert Wesker," The man, Wesker, said as he walked over to where Remus lay. "So, I see you have been infected with the G-Virus 001. I thought Birkin made only one…"
"He…Made two…I was given the second…" Remus said, blood gushed from his mouth. Wesker looked down at him then looked at the metal sticking out of Remus' stomach. He leaned forward his gloved hand wrapped around the metal and pulled it free with ease. Remus gritted his teeth in pain as blood gushed forward again. He felt his skin knitting back together and the bleeding ebbed.
Wesker smirked, "I have a deal for you, Remus Jack Birkin. You can stay here and let the U.S. government find you and experiment on your…Unique body. Or, you can come work for me. You will be payed and you will be safe. So long as you are loyal that is."
Remus looked at the man in black and began to think. There was a high chance the U.S. would pick and prod him because of the two viruses in his blood stream or work for Wesker and not get stabbed with needles and probably live to see the day. He hoped Vic, Leon, Claire, Sherry and Ada…Wait…Where was Ada? "Where's Ada Wong? Where did she go…?" Remus gritted as he sat up, clutching the wound in his stomach. "She works for me. She is safe, so have no fears," Wesker said stepping back to give him room.
"Tch, I knew she wasn't telling the truth…Alright, Albert Wesker…You have yourself a new recruit. When do I start?" Remus said, standing up. "Right now," Wesker said, and shook Remus' hand when he stuck it out.
RESIDENTEVIL
"He's down here!! Hurry, he's hurt!!" Claire's voice rang in the tunnel echoing off the walls. A medic and an armed soldier following close behind her. "He's right her—He's gone!! Remus?! Remus?! Where are you?! He's gone!! He was right here!! Remus?!" Claire said, waving towards the bloody patch on the ground. The blood had begun to dry and mix with the dirt and sand.
There was a blood trail leading away from the pool of blood and dirt, which could be followed for a few feet before it disappeared entirely. What happened to Ada and Remus?
Some mysteries are best left at that. Mysteries…
