((This is the near the end please Review PLEASE))

Chris sighed. Now his sister was missing; he had tried to chase after her but she had simply disappear from the hallway. Chris slowly led his team down the hallway that lead back to the main entrance all the time pondering Claire's safety. Rebecca was behind Chris and Carlos was takin up the rear. Chris was so lost in through that it took Rebecca to poke him in the back before he realize Jill was standing right in front of him.

"Jill!?" Chris said and stared at his female friend.

A warm smile crossed Jill's face "Hello Chris are you alright?" Jill asked in a slightly worried tone.

Chris shook his head. "No...My sister ran off and disappeared.. Who the Umbrella lacky?" Chris asked and looked at Dr. Hauer.

Jill motioned to Hauer. "Dr. Hauer. Hey Rebecca could you look at her arm, it's look pretty beaten up. Dr. Hauer this is our medic Rebecca Chambers but you most-likely already knew that" Jill said in sarcastic tone.

Dr. Hauer glared at Jill for a moment but remain silent. Hauer slowly held out her arm for the young medic to see. Rebecca took out her medical kit and quickly bandaged Hauer's arm.

"There, Ms. Hauer; don't try to move it much the bleeding could comeback" Rebecca said as she put away her medical supplies.

Jill looked at Chris. "Your sister ran off?" Jill asked in the same worried tone.

"Yep. Along with Burnside" Chris said then shook his head.

"I very much doubt Steve's condition to do something so reckless. But I can't stop him now when I don't know where he is" Rebecca said quietly.

Billy arched an eyebrow. "What would make your sister run off like that?" Billy asked.

Chris shrugged. "I really don't know. But before she ran off she yelled Leon name.. I'm guessing he was running down the hall and she went after him. And then Steve went after Claire" Chris explained.

Jill nodded. "That would make a lot of sence after all your sister really likes Leon doesn't she.. Come one we can walk and talk at the same time" Jill said and motioned the group on ward.

Chris walked at Jill side leading his team towards where David and his group was sapposta be. "Yeah Claire really likes Leon, but I don't know. I don't know where she is and well look where we are. I don't care who is with her. This place is dangerous" Chris said.

Jill nodded understanding. "I see I guess, but answer me this. Would she be any more safe with you watching her?" Jill asked.

Carlos chuckled. "She has a point Chris. She has you my friend" Carlos said.

Chris let out a sigh. "Yes she would be, because then I can protect her" Chris said.

Jill managed a smile. "She is most-likely fine Chris" Jill said

Chris eyed Jill then nodded. "Yeah. But I'm still really worried after all we ARE in an Umbrella lab where there is things that like to kill" Chris said

Jill put her hand on Chris's shoulder. "I'd be worried if you where not and you do make a point" Jill said.

Chris smiled at Jill. "Thanks Jill" Chris said.

"No problem Hun" Jill said then smirked.

Chris paused and looked at Jill before he realized that the other team was run towards them. Chris waved to David and the team stopped. David smiled as he trotted up to meet Chris.

"Good to see you are well Chris. Hello team!" David said cheerfully.

"We lost Claire and Steve... They ran off and I had my team collect themselves but when I went after her she was gone along with Burnside" Chris said.

David's smiled faded. "I guess we have to look for her and Steve as well as Leon" David said.

"If you find Leon you will find Claire I think. She ran off after him and Steve ran off after her" Chris explained.

David nodded understanding. "Does any one of them have a radio?" David asked.

"No, Claire gave her to Rebecca and Leon never have one" Chris said.

"David what do you think we should do? With Mortalus running around they need back up" Jill said and looked at Chris.

"We could split up again. Then we will once again have two teams one team looking for them and the other looking for  the parts to the Morphus" David said.

"The parts you need are upstairs in the equipment room.. The problem is you need a crest to get in" Dr. Hauer said quietly.

Every ones attention suddenly switched to the Umbrella employee. Dr. Hauer remain quiet, still in awe to the fact that she was now helping STARS and they where protecting her. Jill paused then looked at David.

"This is Doctor Hauer, Billy and I found her behind a desk. She a bit hurt but she seems to know a lot about this lab" Jill explained to David.

David nodded. "Pleasure." David said then took out the medallion he had found on the desk earlier. "Is this the crest?" David asked.

Dr. Hauer looked at the medallion then nodded. "Yes that is the one" She said quietly.

"Alright we are in business now! Let go power up the Morphus then show that Mortalus we mean business!" John said with a big grin forming on his face.

The team had a chance now....

Meanwhile…

The pounding grew louder. Leon didn't know what was louder the sound of his heartbeat or the pounding on the door, every one had their guns pointed at the door ready to fire if the door moved an inch open. The seconds seemed to drag on forever as the door was being beat upon. In a way every one just sorta wished that the thing would brake through faster because the waiting was almost too much to bear.

Suddenly they heard a new sound the sound of an explosion, but it was not coming from the door it was coming from the other room. Leon quickly spun around pointing his gun at what in his mind seemed to be the bigger threat. Another explosion echo and this time it the room became a foggy haze of wreckage. The pounding on the door was now not important because the sound of something moving in the next room was a lot more threatening.

Leon took a step back and steadied his aim upon the door of the room. The moving stopped.. No one took his or her eyes off the door. As the dust in the room began to settle, a new threat suddenly became a realization. A rocket ripped out of the dusty room and head straight for every one. Ada and Leon ducked out of the way before the rocket could hit them. Ada turned to see the rocket hit the large metal door and send it flying inwards from the explosion.

"GET DOWN!" Leon yelled and suddenly reached into his pocket and chucked one of the frag grenades into the dusty room.

No body needed to be told twice to get down. The explosion was just as great as the rocket and what ever was in the next room felt it. Ada quickly recovered from the blast, got to her feet, and fired into the dusty room. Leon turned and looked at the where the metal door was.

A creature came into view; it was like no BOW he had ever seen before. It was huge, taking up most of the hallway it was coming down. It snout was unnaturally long, as the bottom jaw over lapped the topped with two foot long canine teeth ending off the bottom jaw. It skin was a mixture of ivory fur and exposed muscle. It lumbered on sloth like front limbs. It turned its skull like head in Leon direction. Leon quickly got to his feet and began to fire. The creature roar in pain then suddenly stood upon his huge stump like back legs much like an angry bear would do.

"Not good" Leon mumbled staring at the monstrosity.

The new bow was the least of the others worries. A figure was appearing from the dust a huge humanoid-like figure. Claire took out her sniper rifle letting the laser sight cut through the foggy haze and upon the creature. Steve was letting lose with bullets and Ada kept her aim set and was also firing upon the beast. The beast suddenly lowered its self to the ground and still partly surrounded by dust it charged right at the biggest threat it could see. Ada was bull rushed by a creature Claire could swear could have been related to Mr. X. There was no doubt in any ones mind; this was the Mortalus the other team had run into. At the last possible second Ada dodged out of the line of Mortalus' tackle with agility not humanly possible. Mortalus spun around and glared at Ada.

"Why do you rebels have to make this so impossible for me?" Mortalus growled in a low voice.

Ada hopped back and raised her gun. "Why are you so impossible for us to kill?" Ada sneered.

Mortalus snorted and his eyes suddenly turned a deep reddish color. Steve and Claire both took a step back. Leon had managed to take down the bear- like beast after 4 power magnum shots to the chest. Leon turned and looked at Mortalus then also took a step back. Mortalus suddenly began to roar like it was powering its self up for something. The skins around its arm pulsate and move. Claire paused, and realized now was her chance to get off a good shot from her sniper rifle. Claire lined up a good shot but suddenly Mortalus began to change rapidly. Its hands sprouted tyrant like claws and its arms pulsated making its muscles grow and bulking its body up.

"Die Humans!" Mortalus snarled.

Mortalus spun around with super human speed and with the back of his hand hit Leon across the room. Leon let out a grunt of pain but Mortalus was not done. Mortalus turned very slowly then eyed Ada. Ada quickly braced herself for Mortalus. Mortalus ran up, raising a vicious claw over its head; it hit Ada hard sending her to the ground. Steve had already started to fire but he quickly became Mortalus' next target. Claire decided to take her shot right before Mortalus touched Steve. Claire had a shot lined and fired. The bullet soared through the air hitting Mortalus right in the back of the head. Mortalus instantly stopped and fell face first into the ground.

Leon slowly got to his feet and stared. "Is it dead?" Leon asked.

Ada also got to her feet. "I'm not sure but we should get out of here.. NOW!" Ada said then looked at Steve and Claire.

Claire lowered her sniper rifle and then quickly slung it over her shoulder. She nodded at Ada request and started to head out. Leon took the lead and charged up the stairs with every one following. Leon suddenly stopped as he heard something coming down the stairs. Leon looked back at the other who where reaching for there weapons. Leon also reached for his then walked up the stairs as quietly as he could muster. Once, Leon was close to the things coming down the stairs. He and every one else waited at the bottom pointing their guns upward so when the noise came to come down the stairs it would have to get down the stairs to reach the group. The foot steps grew louder and suddenly a human came into view. Not just any human.. Chris Redfield. Chris blinked and stared down the stairs at his sister and her little fellowship.

"Chris!" Claire yelped surprised.

"Claire?" Chris echoed back.

There was an eerie silence for a couple of seconds before Leon lowered his gun and nodded to Chris. "Sorry. I guess we are all just edgy" Leon admitted.

Jill paused and looked at the group. "What happened?" Jill asked.

"We had a bad run-in with Mortalus..." Leon said and then sighed.

Chris exchanged a look with his team. "What happened to Mortalus?" Chris dared to ask.

Leon looked at Claire then back at Chris. "I think we might have killed him... Claire shot him in the back of the head" Leon explained.

"You think...?" David said and arched an eyebrow.

"Well it's not like we wanted to check! We where lucky to get out of there alive!" Claire yelled.

"Well if he is not dead or if he dares come back we will blast him to bits" Billy stated then pointed at the upgraded Morphus on his back.

Chris paused and looked at Claire then Leon. From what he could tell both of them where very shaken up and by the look of it so was the other two they where with. Chris slowly headed down the stairs.

"Claire are you alright?" Chris asked not sure if he put that right.

Claire paused contemplating. "No… Err... Yes… Maybe..." Claire said not really knowing how she felt about the whole thing.

Chris arched an eyebrow worried about his little sister. "Well lets go check out Mortalus. If he is dead then there is nothing to worry about… If he is alive Billy can blast him with the Morphus" Chris said.

Leon shook his head. "Mortalus is fast. Billy you better be quick on the trigger" Leon said.

Billy nodded. "You can count on me" Billy said boldly.

"Well let's go now... The soon I know that thing is dead the sooner my mind is put to rest" Ada said.

Leon quickly realized that the rest of the team didn't know who Ada was. "This is Ada Wong.. She is an old friend of mine" Leon said then looked at Ada.

Chris nodded. "Nice to meet you, and you are right, lets go team" Chris said and motioned his team onward.

Claire stepped aside letting every one pass her, she had no intention of rushing back into that room again so soon. Leon and Steve also waited with her. As soon as the team passed Claire gave Leon and Steve a nervous look then headed off after the group. Leon and Steve both followed Claire. Chris led the charge down the stairs. Ada had told him where to go and Chris seemed ready. Chris charged into the room. Mortalus' body still sat there. Chris walked over and poked the body with the tip of his shoe.

"It's dead alright. Claire your shooting was prefect I'm impressed" Chris said then looked back at his young sister.

Claire smiled weakly "Yeah… I guess" She said

Chris turned. "Well I guess our work is done here" Chris said.

"So we are going home then?" Barry asked.

"Well yeah.. Lets get out of this death trap" Chris said.

Every one was quite cheerful because they would get to go home at last. Chris and David led the team. Mostly every one was relax but there was still a small since of alert because they where still in an Umbrella base after all. Chris took the fast route he knew to the front doors. They were almost out when suddenly alarms echo through out the building.

"The self destruction system has been activated. All personal report the helicopter pad for evacuation. Don't try to use the boats all personal report to the helicopter" A female voice echo through out the building.

"Damn" Chris swore. "Every one we have to get the helicopter pad"

Chris and David exchanged looks. Curiosity flashed in Chris's eyes. 'Who had set off the system?' was the question on every ones mind.

"The helicopter pad in on the 2 floor. There is a set of stairs that will lead up to it at the end of the 2 floor" Dr. Hauer explained.

David nodded. "Alright team lets get going. We should move fast because we don't know how long we have before this place blows up now lets go!" David ordered.

Every one turned around and started to head back to the stairway. Claire not wanting to be the person in the front of the line let every one pass her like she had done before. Leon and Steve also did the same. Chris eyed Claire as he passed her up but kept moving. Ada waited at the back of the line for Leon, Claire, and Steve.

"I don't know why the self destruct system activated but I hope it has nothing to do with Mortalus" Ada said.

Leon nodded. "Yeah same here" Leon added.

"Mortalus should be dead. That was a clean shot. Maybe it was because of all the B.O.W.s that escaped the system turned its self on" Steve said then shrugged.

"Possibly but from my knowledge of the system. The system has to be activated by a person in order for the building to exploded" Ada said then shook her head. "A lot of things just don't make any since"

Claire arched an eyebrow at the others. "There is really no time to talk about this. Let's just get onto the chopper and get the hell out of here" Claire said.

"Agreed" Leon said.

The group trotted up to make up for the slight gap between the two teams. Chris led the team and he seemed quite tense to Jill and Claire, but neither of them announced it to the party. As they reached the stairs the door to the stairway burst open. 2 of the creatures Leon had battle before now took up the end of the hallway.

"10 minutes in tell detonation" The speakers echoed.

Leon eyed the creature then noticed the red stains on the first ones its fur. "It's you!" Leon said then raised his magnum.

David took out his Beretta. "Fire at Will!" David ordered then shot at the monsters.

Leon didn't need to be told twice he instantly opened fire upon the creature he had believed he had slayin before. Every one but Ada and Rebecca started to fire with there closest at hand weapon. The monster that Leon had hit before died under the team's superior firepower before it could move towards the group. The second creature just kept coming. It let out a roar then charge straight at Chris. Chris tried to get out of its way but its speed was amazing. The creature bashed Chris to a wall, like it was nothing with one mighty swipe of its paw. David took a step back from the monster but the creature only glanced at him then turned its skull like head at Jill.

The creature seemed to be picking target. It was not just on a murdering rage it had some thought behind its actions, Ada seemed to notice. The monster tackled Jill to the ground and roared with rage. Someone got a good shot off the beast and hit it just below the eye. The beast snarled in then suddenly stared right at Claire. Claire paused and then quickly reached for her sniper rifle. Claire knew she was the thing's next target. The creature jumped off Jill then charged through the team knocking every one its path to the ground. Claire fired but the beast just kept coming. Right before the beast was about to reach Claire it started to morph. Claire tried to get out of the monsters way but her feet where glued to the ground. Before Claire knew it the Monster was right in front of her. It reared up onto its back legs but it was no longer the bear like beast it appear as. It was the grey skinned tyrant known as Mortalus.

Mortalus quickly bashed the sniper rifle out of Claire's hands with its right hand then stared into her eyes. "You will die now Claire Redfield" It said before it used its left hand's claw to impale Claire.

A wave of great pain swept over Claire. Mortalus quickly recalled its claw from Claire's body. Claire stood there a second before she hobbled backwards and fell to the ground, everything fading to black.

"CLAIRE!" Chris yelled as he slowly got to his feet.

Ada ran forward and yanked the Morphus from Billy. Ada quickly spun around as Mortalus moved on for the kill on Claire.

"Hey ugly you have bigger worries" Ada said.

Mortalus spun around and stared at Ada. Ada glared at Mortalus then fired. The Morphus took 1 second to charge before a multicolored beam shot out of it. The beam hit Mortalus sending him flying into and through a wall. The kick back from Morphus also sent Ada flying back.

There was a slight pause before Leon and Steve ran to Claire's side. Rebecca also got to her feet and when to check on Claire. Chris just sort of stood in shock, he slowly shook his head as if trying to disbelieve what had just happened to his sister.

"She is still breathing but she is bleeding badly. Chris, she might live if we can get her to a hospital" Rebecca said.

Ada slowly rose to her feet. "I see how it is.. Leon get Claire out of here... Mortalus is not dead but I can make sure he does not follow you. Go and don't look back!" Ada said then aimed the wall Mortalus had gone through

"WHAT?! You hit it with the morphus" Leon said.

"It was not a clean shot. I misjudged the kick back NOW LEAVE ALL OF YOU!" Ada commanded in a powerful voice.

Leon picked up Claire then nodded to Chris. Chris looked over his team as they got to there feet then he nodded at Ada.

"Thank you" Chris said to Ada, and then looked at his team. "Lets Go!"

Ada nodded back and stared at the hole in the wall ready. The team picked themselves up and started to head up to the helicopter pad. Leon gave Ada a worried look then trot to the doors that lead the stairs escorted by Chris and Steve. They made it about half way up the stairs before Leon noticed Steve headed back down the stairs.

"Steve, where are you going?" Chris demanded.

"That kick back is too much for her to get a decent shot. She will need help" Steve said then paused. "Tell Claire what I said back at the base was nothing but true and that I'm sorry but I had to do this"

"Steve get back here!" Leon pleads.

Leon plea did not faze Steve. Steve just kept heading down stairs but was now moving faster. Chris put his hand on Leon shoulder then quickly motioned him to get moving again. Leon nodded and they both got up the stairs and onto the helicopter pad. The computer like voice reminding the team that they had only 2 minutes left. A helicopter was waiting for them. Chris quickly took the pilot' seat with David taking the co-pilot's seat. Just before Leon was about to get on the chopper he heard the sound of the Morphus fire one last time. Leon shook his head and got onto the chopper.

Rebecca threw down her medical kit. "Leon put her on the floor every one else give me as much room as you can" Rebecca ordered.

Leon nodded and set Claire down. He quietly took his seat watching Rebecca work and trying not to think of why this all happened and how much his heart hurt.

David turned around in the co-pilot seat. "Rebecca keep Claire alive I found a hospital on the radio and they are waiting for us" David said then put back on the head set.

Leon sighed. "Hang in there Claire." He said then listened, behind them the sound of the explosion from the Umbrella lab was heard.
