Chapter 9 – For Love and for Glory
Ashley Graham has once again been capture by Ramon, many Zealots with the Plagas inside of them, and the henchmen knowing to be the big bugs of Novistadors somewhere in another building where both Leon and Sarah much go to together. With more traps in mind, they must stay close in fighting back for Bruno, Ada, and Ashley's safeties. Saddler's once again up to no good at all with many more Plagas around and the cure to get what needs to be done and having his Sarah back, as if. She loves Leon more than anything for him to love her back. So, into the Castellan they go to while watching out for more incoming Ganados, Wolves, Zealots, and Novistadors. At least Sarah has fought her way through in stopping She-Plaga alone for her dying friend Betty she could be saved like the rest in making more Plaga eggs and tries not to be afraid anymore from her past for a better future soon to happen once the mission was over.
Tayla: Those two were met to be alright…
It looks like a lot of Zealots were waiting for them to come to get ready to fire the fire bombs with the catapults on the tall building they must go into.
"Leon? What's your plan?"
Leon loads up his gun to stay close by Sarah's side.
"We stop them before they stop us."
"Way ahead of you there."
By running fast to crossing the bridge and not getting hit by fire bombs to be set off, Leon shoots one Zealot down to the head and Sarah does the same to the other from the leg and a kicking move style to the ground 'and Leon on his end' allowing them to cutting the rest out of their miseries with their knives. With the first part, all cleared out, Leon stops the rest on the other side where they needed to go by using a riffle to gunning down the rest firing at them. After three shots, they went inside of the building there were at now in seeing lots of gears to being in a clock tower.
"Leon, there's something's on these gears."
Giving Sarah an idea to shoot some off from the bottom and up top carefully with her gun leaving Leon confused on what was going on at first.
"What are you doing, Sarah?"
"I'm trying to shoot these pieces of wood sticking out off the gears at a time!"
With Sarah getting a few so far, she and Leon see another note on the table from up top to read. Must be talking about the Novistadors… Saying that their skills brought Ashley back to them leaving Sarah left to get and Leon dead, for if nothing's stop soon in saving Ashley or curing her along with Leon and Sarah too they'll make her 'like they did to Betty' into a member of the Los Illuminados. Not good! Also, Saddler to having Sarah as his bride under his control to bare a child for him to take over the new world when he's gone. Not going to happen! Well, what do you know it also said that they jammed the clock gears so they can slow the two down until the ritual begins later. And with that for once again Sarah doing that part already to making sure they save Ashley in time.
Once Sarah cleared all three out, Leon turns the lever for the gears to turn and the clock to be working again normally. That allow the tower platform to turn the bridge to where they needed to go, with Sarah doing another fine job for some of the things she can do is special making it this far for Leon to be very proud of her and kissing her on the head.
"Sarah, you are amazing. The woman who I fell in love with."
"I guess this gift isn't bad to have at all and with it we will get everything done and protecting Ashley."
So, the two headed back down to leaving the room 'and dealing with more Zealots shooting flame arrows at them' well besides having scythes or bombs to throw at them, Leon and Sarah stop them one by one to fall. Back outside since the path has been moved and made for them and stopping more Zealots with maces and shields out, Sarah throws the flash bombs to blinding them and Leon to shooting their heads with a rifle. Nice! Let's not forget about some Plagas coming out of them too to being killed. They went inside for Ashley was nearby.
"She's close."
"Be ready for anything."
"Okay, Leon."
After Leon uses the rocket launcher to killing the two armed men standing in the background, Sarah takes out the other two Zealots and Leon on one more to shoot down from the back again if they must pass through the lock down doors. Finally, it opens for them to the main door for both Leon and Sarah to go into, what they find inside. Of the Castellan castle of the room itself they see Ashley near the main seat chair with two Verdugos holding up weapons near her neck.
"There she is!" Sarah points out to Leon and Ashley sees the two for they have come to rescue her.
"Ashley."
"Leon! Sarah!"
Before the two could save Ashley, they hear Ramon's laugh while sitting on his chair.
"Mr. Kennedy and the Mistress, don't you know when it's time to throw in the towel? Don't move now, my dear. Let me get rid of this pest for you!" He pushes a button on the chair for Leon falls into a pit hidden in the shallow floors where he was standing on.
"No!"
"No, Leon!"
Sarah could watch where Leon was about to fall to his death… Or is he? Lucky for him having a grappling hook to use by throwing it at the walls to stop falling in time. For Sarah looks again feeling happy that he was alright, Ramon however doesn't know that yet.
"Hmm...Where's the satisfying sound of one's impalement?"
Leon hangs on with his gun out.
"Won't fall for this old trick." Leon fires at the bell sending a very loud shock wave sound noise for Ramon to hear and hurting his ears, he was mad now.
Shouldn't put your ears too close to the speakers, Mini Me!
"Aah! How dare you! No more games! Kill him!" Ramon turns to one of the Verdugo guards to do that task while the other watches on Ashley. "Kill!" With one going to kill Leon and the other to leave with Ramon as they take Ashley somewhere else, as for Sarah… "Come here, Mistress this second!"
Sarah sees a wound from Ramon's arm for she could use her butterfly knife to make a bigger cut and screaming in pain, but his skin to slowly recover she looks at the pit.
"Leon. You're still alive."
Ramon was really mad this time.
"Come back here!"
Sarah tries to get Ashley out but she knows saving Leon comes first before her and she didn't want Saddler to do awful things to her again.
"Sarah! Go! Find Leon first!"
"But, Ashley!"
"Forget me for now and go! I'll be fine! They can't hurt me!"
Sarah had no choice so she fires at the candles to make a fire for her to get away and find Leon for Verdugos and Zealots miss their chance to getting her back for running so fast.
"Ashley! We're coming back for you! I promise!"
Ramon stomps his foot on the ground in anger many times.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! No matter… Mistress will be ours and brought back alive. Let her have her fun for now. You! We shall prepare for the ritual! Quickly!" With Ramon leaving the room and one Verdugo pushing Ashley along with saying to herself knowing that Sarah will be fine, and Leon's alright too.
"Leon… you are alive."
So, with Sarah making her way around from out running the enemies and soon sneaking around where Leon might be down below somewhere, with him safe on ground into another sewer he gets a call from Ramon not sounding or looking so happy.
"So maybe you have nine lives. As for the Mistress, she will be found and care for. I like a woman with guts and a reason I admire Lord Saddler for that. But it doesn't matter now, Mr. Kennedy! I've sent my right hand to dispose of you before you get to her first."
Leon will stop Ramon for sure.
"Your right hand comes off?"
"Say whatever you please. Die, you worm!"
Once he hangs up 'more like throwing it', for Leon to continue his way through for him to feel Sarah out in finding her again as she does the same on the other side.
"Sarah, you've escaped, too didn't you? Wait for me. I'm coming to find you first then we find Ashley together this time."
Sarah could hear and feel Leon nearby to follow it outside of the sewers of the building. She hopes that all was well for Ashley and Bruno.
"Leon, you found me once so I'll find you next. Here I come."
Deep within the sewers, Leon tries to find a way out and back up to finding Sarah and Ashley. He sees lots of bats flying around 'not infected by the Plagas at least' with some dead bodies with blood on the walls or impaled from a huge sharp wood to be stabbed through. After buying and selling things from Merchant, Leon finally finds a ladder to climb on to where the waters were flowing at a nearby drain to head to the area; unaware for lots of Novistadors was around watching him 'creepy' to move on for Leon knows he wasn't alone in the sewers besides Merchant and the bats.
Into the next room looked like he was inside a metal factory. As for Sarah trying to find her way through and avoid fighting in finding Leon, she sees a floor puzzle 'like a dancing board game' to opening the gates to get through by stepping on the right paths where they light up from her feet. She sees it and tries reading the hints.
"Hmm… Send us your voice and steps, to know what lies for you next. Okay?" So, Sarah gives it a shot to follow the puzzle by moving carefully inch by inch, but it failed for the secret doors to be opened for lots of Zealots to come after her. She didn't get what she did wrong as she tries fighting her way from the men trying to get to her being trapped in one room was hard enough. "I don't understand! What did I do so wrong!?"
Then it hit Sarah, she had to move and sing for that she can control the Plagas to slowing those who are infected to stop chasing after her to control the music she hears with her mind. She must sing and dance from them to unlocking the doors. As for Leon… One of the Novistadors came flying in at him to where he came inside to the next room. That's not all, for something else was in the waters almost stabs Leon from up top for him to move away in time, another sea creature from before? It wasn't only in the waters but from above too. At least he made it to the lever to turning the power back on and the elevator to work, then it comes out to stop Leon that Ramon order one of the Verdugos to do that job, it was a Plaga and half the Novistadors. Gross! Put your hood back on!
"So, that's what you look like." Leon couldn't fight, cut, or shoot it down so he sees a very cold tank to releasing a powerful gas to freeze up to bug since they're weak to the cold to turn to ice and Leon to use a rocket launcher to blast it to bits. "Hasta la vista, baby."
Tayla: Ha! You said it, Leon.
So, with that one out of the way, the elevator door opens for Leon to go into for more will come besides the first one. Turning back around to finding the right room in the office to go into the elevator, so going down for him wherever he'll be in the right one… As for Sarah, she must do what she must to getting out for Leon was nearby and stopping the Zealots quickly to do what she must, so after thinking hard she knows what to sing and dance to.
Sarah sings and dances of the tradition of the jungle style from leg and arms to move around to the music knowing where to move on to the platforms and avoiding the Zealots, to 'Phil Collins – Two Worlds' from the Disney's Tarzan movie. For her dances and singing slows down the Zealots from her great skills and the thing inside of her does save their lives. As she was doing all of things the room shows brighter candles lid up, the Zealots were amazed by her skills, for every move she dances to on the ground made them lid up in different colors. Just image this part how it goes while reading it…
Sarah: (Singing) Put your faith in what you most believe in
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
A paradise untouched by man
Within this world blessed with love
A simple life, they live in peace
Softly tread the sand below your feet now
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
Beneath the shelter of the trees
Only love can enter here
A simple life, they live in peace
Raise your head up
Lift high the load
Take strength from those that need you
Build high the walls
Build strong the beams
A new life is waiting
But danger's no stranger here
No words describe a mother's tears
No words can heal a broken heart
A dream is gone, but where there's hope
Somewhere something is calling for you
Two worlds, one family
Trust your heart
Let fate decide
To guide these lives we see
The door finally opens allow Sarah to slide her way out in time before it closes on her with a pole to reach out, throw at the candles, and they all burned to death inside as it closes on them and trapped for dead. Making her way somewhere close by where Leon was coming from to finding him.
"Yeah! I did it! That was fun. Leon, I'm coming!" Sarah rushes to Leon as he makes his way down.
Elsewhere… where Saddler was at in some island, along with Jack hanging around for he watched how well Leon was doing and the way Sarah stopped the Zealots with her special gift amazed him 'in a six-sexy way to him', ew. For he was pleased to getting Sarah back and doing the rest as planned.
"My Sarah… Such great gift I must have from her. With such beauty… It seems that Salazar is having difficulty taming the American pig. Salazar had his chance. Krauser, go get the girls. One we need and the other to soon be mine. Oh, and dispose of this swine while you're at it." Saddler tightens his staff with his hands tightly just seeing Leon for him and Sarah together. "If he thinks he can take my Sarah away, he has another thing coming."
Jack gets up for he'll do as Saddler said since he serves and was saved by him, what a mess he is this time and over his head.
"Consider it done."
Not good… Leon gets off the elevator to see a note left from down below to read, as Sarah finds a hidden path underground to go into before more Zealots come at her and close by in seeing a door Leon begins to read the note. It looks like its talking about the Plagas since Ramon release them, for the first one of the Castellan buried them very deep below the castle from long ago until Ramon found and freed them back to life from fossils into monsters. It parasite that can't survive without having a living host's body until their grown or more by force feeding the human women and using the men to creating the rest from within. It seems that they waited until Ramon found and release them… From the story from the beginning how the villagers found it and one turn into one to turn the rest of the people of the village into hell, it was nothing more than a haunted memory. Everything caused by the Las Plagas themselves. It seems they live from the dinosaur age to one living cell core to last this long until today to be reborn; the more someone was making the cycle for more Plagas to be made and a queen to making more eggs to plant within them, the dangerous they'll be and much more if Ashley isn't cure in time the whole U.S.A. will be next beside half the parts happening in Spain. The only way to kill all the Plagas before more are made and the cult happening, is Leon, Sarah, Ashley, Bruno, and Ada 'on her own' in doing it. Talk about sicken creation after another.
After Leon reads it and feels gross out a bit to buying and selling from Merchant, he had a new thing to say to him on what he was looking for.
"Excuse me, stranger, but I believe your cute friend is just around the corner. Right about now…"
Leon hears the door opening for Leon didn't draw out his gun for he knows it was none other than Sarah and she knew he was in there. Merchant was happy to see the two in reuniting again.
"Leon!"
The two hugged each other for they were happy to be together again.
"Sarah! I was worried that something really bad happened to you."
The two kissed for Sarah felt bad for leaving poor Ashley behind.
"Leon, I'm so sorry. I found Ashley, but she told me to find you first before we get her back again. I can only protect myself but can't fight alone. So, I had to find you first. I don't care if it's not a part of this crazy mission, but again I needed to find you and keep you safe like you are for me."
Leon understood Sarah for Ashley had to tell her to do it and saving herself from Saddler's grasp.
"It's okay, Sarah. Ashley said the right thing. We're back. So, we'll find Ashley again."
That made Sarah very happy she did the right thing in finding Leon first before getting back to Ashley. So, they leave the room to getting out of the sewers together.
"Well, let's go get her back."
"That a girl. I won't let anything separate us again."
"Me either, Leon."
Making their way through a hidden mine, they shoot down a couple of Ganados for some to set on fire to. Looking around further deep into the mines it seems they were working on something important and soon to be taken out both Leon and Sarah's skills; it shows a huge driller digging deeper into something stopping some from cutting to shooting them down to soon going down on the ladder to stopping the rest for Sarah was getting good in fighting back. Leon then pulls the lever allowing a cart filled with dynamite to be lower down to them. But what for?
"Got anything in mind, Sarah?"
Sarah thinks hard on this one with Leon stopping the other Ganados with more dynamite to go off on them and be blown up. Sarah operates the controls to using the cart to keep on moving, for a Chainsaw Man comes to kill them for Leon to keep him busy while Sarah works the things out.
"I'm fine, Leon! Do what you have to!"
Leon keeps the chainsaw dude and stopping the other group of Ganados from cutting and a shotgun to the faces for Sarah has finally got the cart back down to go. Leon gets the dynamite for Sarah to joining back with him, they need to blow something up now the big boulder in the way to get to the other side of the mine with Leon lighting up with a lighter.
"Hit the deck!"
"Here it comes!"
Leon and Sarah move further back from the boulder for the dynamite to go off. Boom! It was clear to walk across this time. They went into a room filled with more lava for being so hot but not when it comes to finding Ashley first for Leon and Sarah to withstand the heat.
"Too hot!"
The two drank a bottle of water to share for Leon was more worried about Sarah.
"This should last us. Come on."
Looking around where lots of meal was all over the place, lava underneath them of the ground with a metal cage to walk on, a crane like a zip lining, and an operated machine to use. Soon the big door opens for two Gigantes to come in and kill Leon, how can he and Sarah stop them in a place like this?
"Leon!"
Leon fires a rocket launcher at the two and allowing them to move away with Leon holding Sarah's hand while out running the giants.
"We'll stop them! Stay close to me, Sarah!"
One corners them about to be crush from the Gigante's hand, but Leon pushes Sarah out of the way to getting hit instead.
"No! Leon!"
Sarah rushes over to his side to getting Leon out of the way and cuts the rest using her knife from the backs. Sarah pulls Leon up top until they can reach to them; Leon was bleed from the head a bit but was alright if his woman was.
"Sarah… You're alright."
"That was stupid on what you did there." Sarah tries not to cry for Leon rubs Sarah's face gently.
"Sorry, I couldn't let you get hurt. I did promise I protect you, didn't I?"
"Yes, and I did too. So be careful next time."
It seems Leon killed one with a rocket launcher leaving one left coming for them up top. This one looked different with a brown color skin, a black mask on his face, black straps on its' arms, and shorts on to still be deadly; Sarah shoots it from the back before getting to them and allowing Leon to stand up and jump on its back to cut the Plaga clean and dead until the beast when down hard. The door soon opens for them to getting out with Sarah giving Leon a kiss.
"That was great."
"Thanks, told you that I would protect you. Let's go."
Going through to finally leave the lava room and into a cave where Leon and Sarah must stop hordes of Novistadors from inside while solving a puzzle saying something about a light leading them the way, so walking up they see the bugs trying to stop them. Getting them into a small room for the two in shooting them down until they're dead. Looking at the dead bodies after that, Sarah found out something about the gross Novistadors.
"Oh, I get it now."
"What do you get?"
Sarah explains to Leon.
"These Novistadors are the males of the Plagas and the Verdugos too. The Verdugos must guard the queen being the one I faced leaving these Novistadors as the carriers to getting the queen pregnant with more eggs to be made and bodies to use. The queen leaves the males to be born from the males and them to mate with the female to devour, fill up on raw meat, making more Plagas eggs from within the body, and pours out of their stomachs for the queen to keep in stocked. It all makes sense when you look and think about it."
"You are such an amazing woman who I fell for."
"Thank you, Leon."
Tayla: Smart girl, ain't she?
Leon was surprise that Sarah learn it on her own, where they soon see a wall with drawings on it with a button to be press and lights up and something else too back outside might be their key to unlocking something. They leave one room to something back out 'and fighting with more Novistadors' in their way. They find another switch to power another light on from the other room showing more light in the cave, two of them of two statues holding mirrors to glowing up so brightly to shine a path to a bigger mirror on the rocky walls to melting a door down to go into.
"Head towards the light, it's showing us the way."
Going into and unlocking the gates, they watch the timings to getting through the falling rocks in their ways, by Leon's count he and Sarah get through all the way to the end. Then in one big room of the caves, they see a floor that'll lead Leon and Sarah somewhere up top, with them holding their hands and ready to face anything in their way.
"Let's do this."
"Okay. Ashley's nearby and waiting for us."
It looks like it leads them to outside, for Ada was nearby to leave a letter to Leon and Sarah to read before fleeing.
"I hope this helps them out."
Once she left, the two made it up top and see something to read for Sarah felt it was Ada's hand writing.
"Is a message made from Ada."
Leon knew they were being watched somehow.
"Mind as well read it."
It explains about the Plaga egg hatching from within a body. For once they do, it'll be impossible to removing it out of the body for sure. But if still little and weak before being born, it can be remove from a machine and a special blood referring to Sarah Lamar herself. Leon, Sarah, and Ashley can do and use the operation machine in time left and hidden somewhere that Luis made for them as a cure 'besides the one Saddler has' to getting it out of them. But it won't be so easy or feel good; it's their only chance they have left to use. So, Ashley's time might be running out if they don't hurry it up as Ada gives them a warning if all else fails for her end.
With a lip sealed with a kiss at the end of the paper, Ada left them a good message for them to keep in mind.
"Crap!"
"Leon, we have to find the thing for all of us to be cured."
From a distance, Leon and Sarah see a castle they must go to and Ashley was in.
"We better hurry. I think Ada might be right about it, let's go and not worry about it until we get to it."
Walking from the old ruins of the place left behind of the dead woods all dries up along the pathways, both Leon and Sarah stop some Ganados by shooting their torches to be step on fire to die. Seeing a burned down barn for them to go into, Sarah feels air from a hidden floor for Leon to turn the lever showing a hidden room down there. They go down to see lots of skulls all over with a pathway showing a hidden shrine made of solid dirt of a fort.
"It looks like a hidden city of Rome almost when you look at it."
Tayla: It's more of a crypt area to me.
Stopping more Ganados and the one with a chainsaw while avoiding bear traps, Leon sees a rod hidden in a coffin downstairs to bring along. Leon and Sarah shoot down a lot of men and women Ganados also kicking and cutting them too with the Plagas to be put down even the two chainsaw men were out thanks to the two lovers. They get the key to the mines to soon getting out as more of the Ganados come at them.
"This way."
Leon grabs Sarah to carry her out of the fort back down, fighting lots of Ganados to Plagas, and using the key to going down. Going into another small room where the gates seal Leon and Sarah to the spikes on the ceilings coming down for Plagas to killing them too.
"Plagas!" Sarah shoots one and Leon does too.
"Don't let any of these things live!"
"Don't have to tell me twice there!"
Sarah sees some triggers on the spikes to shoot off quickly while Leon stops the rest of the Plagas in their way. It came close to crushing their heads but Sarah stops it from coming down on them in time for the door to be open and getting out, only thing they must keep their heads down low not to get hit when they duck down.
"Too close."
"So sick of getting into these traps." Sarah laughs for Leon to laugh with her.
"You and me both, Sarah."
They leave the place from downstairs to the other side of the ruins, to a cart that leaves them into a mine for Leon and Sarah get on it for a ride that wasn't that all fun to be.
"This cart is nothing like anything else but in Disney World."
"All we have to do is duck and fire back, leave the starting ride to me." With Sarah sitting close to Leon, he fires the lever to start the cart to move and go through the caves. "Fasten your seat-belts, Sarah, here we go."
Lots of Ganados came crashing on to the ride for both Leon and Sarah to shooting them off it and ducking from every plank above them. The more they ride, the more Ganados kept on coming for them to stop and keep on moving; one chainsaw man comes running at them from one cart after another until Sarah shoot it to the head to fall and the chainsaw kept on running to cut some Ganados to death.
"Should never play with outside tools. That can kill you right there."
From the mines and caves and the deeper the two went, the surroundings were getting much more different where they needed to be. One was still standing for another plank was coming in their way.
"Duck!" The man Ganados turns around to see too late to getting his head ripped off due to hard speed the cart was going in and Leon and Sarah to be alright. "I did warn him."
The cart soon went faster for more Ganados were on it and the way it was speeding up for Leon and Sarah to hold on.
"I'm starting to hate this ride."
It was going in circles all over the room. They soon enter through the tunnels and the sign said the bridge was out.
"Not good!"
Leon thinks quickly to grabs Sarah and jump out to the edge to holding on to as the cart and the Ganados went down with it. Sarah climbs on top of Leon first to pulling him back up, a close call for a ride that almost killed them, for where the hole ended at who knows.
"Okay, I feel like more of an Indiana Jones' ride scene. Leon, you good?" Leon grabs on to Sarah's breasts to taking a breather making sure they were alive. "Leon!"
"Sorry, I'm making sure. You did grab my butt to getting up, I liked it."
Sarah smiles for Leon lets go and wasn't mad on what he did to her.
"It's fine; I like you touching me too. We better leave now."
"Good idea."
Entering a small room for Leon to grabbing on to a Stone of Sacrifice to use them to go through to a ladder to climbing up and back outside he and Sarah were, maybe somewhere further this time they see a door to use the symbol and go inside to being unlocked. It was an elevator for they get it to work in going up where Ashley was nearby for Leon and Sarah to rescue her, get cured, and finding Bruno afterwards.
"Going up."
Leon and Sarah have arrived in another church of the big one from outside where they see in the middle of a giant Ramon statue where the Zealots control its every move from legs and arms to stopping the two.
"You got to me kidding me!"
The bridge lowers down for the water to block Leon and Sarah to going through only to stop the statue and the Zealots first. As Sarah takes out the Zealots with everything she had, Leon does his part by destroying the thing quickly… It was a hard battle to be doing for Leon to fight the rest and Sarah as back up, Leon goes to one side after another to bring each bridge back up to walk on all thanks to the giant hands to getting him across. After the second one both Leon and Sarah were good to go across to the next room, so much for the statue was helpful to them, until it comes to life to stomping Leon and Sarah to make a run for it.
"Run for you lives!"
From every sprint and dodging Leon and Sarah had to do, Leon shoots the lock off the door for them to go outside to the main tower. After with another run with the statue until the bridge was so weak to hold up the weight of the statue, it crumbles down along with it, allowing Leon and Sarah to jump to the side. For they made it in time. For the next room is where Ramon and Ashley was at.
"It's go time, Leon."
"Got it."
Both Sarah and Leon see Ramon and one Verdugo bodyguard waiting for them with the little man clapping.
"So, nice you could join us, Mr. Scott Kennedy and Mistress."
"You again."
Sarah puts her gun out at Ramon.
"This time we will stop you."
"The sacred rite that is about to begin at this tower will bestow the girl with magnificent power. She will join us, become one of us. And you, Mistress, will be wed to Lord Saddler to be our Chosen One."
Like Sarah would ever go back to Saddler again.
"Make me!"
"This is no ritual. This is terrorism."
"And a sick one at that!"
Leon and Sarah were right about that part.
"Isn't that a popular word these days? Not to worry, we've prepared a special ritual just for you leaving us to getting back Mistress."
Before Ramon triggers another trap for Leon, he throws his knife at his hand to be in pain a bit.
"Heh, nice try."
The Verdugo rushes to Ramon's side to pull the knife out and throws it back at Leon for Sarah to warn him in time.
"Heads up!"
He dodges it. Ramon runs off with the Verdugo whimpering in pain to the elevator up top.
"Stop!"
Sarah sees a stair that they can catch up to Ramon.
Tayla: Ha! Ramon's a big baby on pain.
"Leon! Up here!"
Up top Leon and Sarah shoot or jump over incoming barrel to keep on going up as well as stopping Zealots doing so much in slowing them down. Going up further to see a big elevator to go n for Leon and Sarah will stop Ramon once and for all and save Ashley from him. The button has been press to going up top, while shooting down Zealots with weapons and shields as well as Plagas too for Leon and Sarah to handle the mess together. They finally make it up top to running around the place from up side to go higher up… The other one from afar got them where they needed to be to walking on the stairs; to buying and selling to Merchant they were set to go as well for him to wish them both good luck before leaving.
"Good luck, you two."
Leon and Sarah were loaded up to walk in the room where Ramon was at. Funny how his arm keeps getting hurt a lot thanks to Bruno's help the most.
"Ready or not, Ramon, here we come."
Into the place, they go… For Leon and Sarah see the room being big and by the looks of things from the inside of the place, where the Las Plagas are produced masseuse by what it looks like a giant brood queen or sorts.
Tayla: Ew! I rather be in a bee's hive than this and I hate bees!
There Ramon and his one Verdugo bodyguard wait for them from up top if of one of the platform to capturing Sarah back to Saddler 'who used him' and killing Leon. Where's Ashley?
"Leon, wait. Ashley's not here. We're too late."
"What?"
Ramon explains the rest to them as they see him. Also, seeing a huge flower-like being on the walls all dark red and breathing just grosses out Leon and Sarah looking at it, looks like one lucky human female turns into those things to making more Plagas time after time.
"Ah, you've just missed her. The ritual is over. She left with my men to an island."
"What?"
Ramon was right for once, Sarah sees Ashley being taken away on a boat to a far island where they were and where Saddler's at.
"He's right, Leon! But she's fine, that Plaga hasn't come out yet."
Ramon steps up on the platform where Ashley's body was lying down on 'seeing that did something with her already on who knows what', he stands next to the creature for something was about to happen.
"I think it's time I played my due respects towards to your impressive and stubborn will. Mr. Kennedy...Welcome! And Sarah here will be mine for Lord Saddler!"
Both Ramon and the Verdugo bodyguard get pulled from the creature's tentacles inside of it as Ramon laughs before being swallow whole leaving Sarah to sense the big danger to come.
"Leon! It's coming!"
Leon stays by Sarah's side.
"Sarah! I'm here for you!"
Leon and Sarah see for Sarah to scream at the transformation of Ramon turning into a bug-like creature with many arm tentacles coming out, having a long neck sticking out making noises and were ready for the kill with two big looking eyes and very sharp teeth like a praying mantis looking all red and pink everywhere. The gate traps Leon and Sarah by fighting their way through Ramon showing his body looking all white and mess up inside of the mouth to be screaming in pain and anger, for Sarah helps up Leon on this fight.
"Sarah, you back me up from above while I got him from below."
"Okay, be careful." Sarah climbs up where Leon was standing for her to get a clear shot as Leon keeps his eyes on him instead of her from danger.
"Monsters. I guess after this there'll be one less to worry about."
The final show down with Ramon begins. It seems no matter how many times Leon shoots it has no effect on him until the shell opens to showing his real ugly form to pop out, allowing Leon to shoot at him many times.
"Leon! Aim for his real body! It's the main core of the heart itself!"
"Got it!" Leon fires away many times at Ramon with a rifle until it closes back up leaving Sarah to keep shooting at the big eyes many more times for it to open back up again for Leon.
"Quit it!"
Sarah didn't stop not even if Ramon tries to scare her.
"Keep doing it, Sarah!"
Everything seems to be working for them from stopping the head and the creature many times more. Until one last shot allows Sarah to shoot the head hard for Leon to give out one final shot to going down for the tentacle arms goes crazy for one sharp rock piece to fall on top of the long neck one and make a huge cut on Ramon causing them to bleed to death.
"Ah! Blood! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
It was painful to watch and it was happening for Ramon was screaming hard until he wasn't talking anymore for him and the creature of the Plaga was down for good. 'Finally,!' Sarah jumps down for Leon to catch her with a huge and a lovely kiss to give on the lips.
"Sarah, thanks to you we can go find Ashley."
They look at the leftovers of Ramon melting away for the place to clear out.
"Thanks, Leon. I'm glad he's long gone."
"Me too."
They finally leave the building for now they must find away to get to the other side of the island where Ashley was, with no boats to being found anywhere for the two to drive on in the waters. They both climb down to the ocean by using a rope carefully, going back down by using the elevator, making their way through the building, buying things for the trip from Merchant 'still a mystery man', and getting to the waters to leaving them out. Leon has his gun out seeing a boat out of the blue with Ada on it. Ada? She's helping them out and her own too for Sarah sense it telling Leon no to hurt her.
"Leon, wait! She's here to help us."
"She's right. Do you two need a right, handsome?"
Leon had no other choice but they had to knowing that Ada sees them wanting to save Ashley no matter what.
"Okay. I'm doing this for Ashley and Sarah, not you."
"Deal."
Ada drives off to the other side with Leon sitting next to Sarah to hold him in her arms on the way there for him to like and keeps her close to him. During the ride, Ada wanted to talk to Sarah about something.
"Sarah? I'm glad you found on what you were looking for with a price. I'm so sorry."
"Its fine… But why did you help me? Help us?"
"Why? I have my reasons. You two do make a cute couple."
"You're fine with that?"
"Yeah, I trust you. I owe you for helping me so we're even. You two still think you can save the President's daughter in time?"
"I know we can. I can feel it."
Ada laughs a little for Leon to standing up to his girl.
"I believe in her too, Ada."
"I know. It's not that, Sarah's a gifted girl so doesn't let Saddler get his hands on her. I like her because she's pure, strong, smart, and I see why you love her." Ada sees them two holding hands.
"Ada, why not stop working for Wesker and come work with us?"
"There are lots of things you don't understand about me, Sarah, its best if I continue with my job. Someday he will be stopped somehow."
"So, it's like that?"
"Afraid so…"
Sarah did try, but she knows Ada's not a bad guy just a thief who has no choice but to work for Wesker, does Leon know about it as well to himself than his girlfriend does?
"Sarah, when we get there… Someone wants to see you who are almost like your poor friend. She wanted me to find you."
Sarah was confused on what Ada meant.
"Who do you mean…?"
Ada took a deep breath and said it.
"It's your Mother, your real mother. She's alive and she's fused from the Plagas powers."
"What!?"
That surprise Sarah and Leon for she barely remembers her real Mother who left her husband and hurting their own daughter, but somehow there was a secret that would finally be revealed to her.
"You're kidding me!"
"Afraid I'm not, Leon."
Sarah wanted to get there now.
"Speed it up."
"Come again?"
Sarah puts her foot on the petal to speed the boat up for Ada.
"Just go!"
"Okay, I'll take you to her then we go our separate ways for now."
Leon agrees with Ada on this one.
"Deal, now drive."
With Sarah taking her foot off the wheel for Ada to keep on driving the boat, the three have arrive near shore where Saddler's fortress was at and Ashley, Sarah must find her Mother before she dies like Betty did. Well, near the cliff side is where Ada makes her stop as she smiles at Leon and Sarah she gets her grappling gun to climb her way up top.
"Sarah, she right around this area so go to her. And Leon, I got some business to take care of. See you two later."
Ada takes off for Leon tries controlling the boat for himself to drive inside for Sarah to go in and do her part with her boyfriend. For he sighs never to understand Ada Wong at all.
"Women…"
Sarah puts her arms around Leon's.
"What about me…?"
Leon laughs and kisses Sarah on the head.
"You're nothing like Ada, keep being you and only you."
"I will."
As Leon drives the boat to get to shore for him and Sarah to get off they must find Ashley, Bruno, Sarah's mother, and stop Saddler for good with Ada's help did well so far… Leon then gets a call from Saddler himself using it instead of Ramon being no more, for Sarah can sense it out before Leon picks up to hide behind his back.
"Leon… It's him."
"I got this." Looks like the two enemies talk once again for he will get Sarah back from Leon and he will stop him. "I hate to break it out to you but Salazar's dead."
"Yes, it seems that way. Not to mention the lair of the pretty women making me more Plaga eggs are no more… But I can let that slide for my dear Sarah."
Sarah stays close to Leon.
"I won't marry you, Saddler! I rather die!"
"Ah, but you will soon enough."
"Saddler, why don't you give up and let Ashley go home? And why you need Sarah so much?"
"Perhaps you are disillusioned with overconfidence just because you killed my small-time subordinate?"
"Saddler, you're small time."
Saddler just laughs at Leon.
"Writhe in my cage of torment, my friend. I will have my woman back and you will die." Saddler hangs up after that.
Sarah tries to be brave from Saddler's sickening ways for Leon to stay by her side.
"Like hell I'll be back in his arms. I love you, Leon. Only you."
"Hey, it's okay."
Sarah and Leon kissed.
"I won't let Saddler get to you. I promise, Sarah. Let's find what we need and the cure."
"And my Mom? Ada might be right if she's becoming like Betty did."
"We will find them and Ashley. Let's go. Sarah, I love you so much to never leave your side."
"Leon, I'm glad we found each other."
The two smiled for Leon and Sarah to head forth on the shore side from the seas on the rock paths up top to getting inside so far. That leaves Saddler and Jack left to deal with along with finding Ashley, Bruno, Ada, and the cure in getting out for good from Ingrid's help, also Sarah wanted to ask her Mother 'if she was alive somewhere' so many questions about her strange gift saving them this far. All this and more to come to the end sooner or later with the main bad guys down so far and still more to come, along with Leon and Sarah's love are strong when they work side by side.
