Another corridor. I turned to the left and swiftly drove a kick at the side of the Majini's head. The P30 device might have come off, but some of it is still running through my system, giving me abilities that I shouldn't have. For once, I was thankful for it. A drop kick, and he collapsed. Two more Majinis blocked my way, but a flying kick brought them down. Easily dodging the third one, I sprinted off and headed off to the door at the end of the corridor.
It was a communications room. As I examined it, I spied an empty vial. Memories came back to me, of having spent time there with Wesker and Excella. And how she would inject a substance to him.
Of course!
I went directly to the communications table. Tweaking the controls, I hoped against hope that Chris hadn't changed his number.
He didn't. His face immediately appeared on the screen. "Jill! Are you alright?" He immediately asked.
I almost smiled at the concern in his voice. Almost. "I'm fine, don't worry about me. Just listen carefully, there's something I need to tell you…" As I ran through the plan with them, I allowed myself to feel hopeful for the first time since I reached Kijuju. The line got cut before I could finish, but it didn't matter. I trusted them. They already know what to do. I flicked some more of the switches. I might not be able to go there with them in the fight, but I sure as hell am not just going to sit around. I still had a part to play.
"Hello? Code 2-2-4-6. This is Agent Valentine. I have no time to explain, but I need to be connected to the team assigned in Kijuju…"

My heart lurched as I saw Chris and Sheva struggling to keep their balance on the rocks. Signaling at Stone to go lower, I threw down the ladder. "Grab on!" I yelled.
Chris grabbed the ladder and allowed Sheva to go first. As I pulled her in, we exchanged smiles. Thank you. We then turned to Chris and pulled him in. Breathing a sigh of relief, I leaned against the side of the helicopter. It was over.
The helicopter suddenly lurched. "CHRIIIS!" A huge bellow, even louder than the roar of the lava was heard. Dammit! The bastard's got us!
"Hang on!" Chris yelled as we struggled to keep ourselves from being thrown off.
"Chris, Sheva! Use those!" I gasped out, struggling to hang on. Sheva looked in the direction of where I'm pointing at, and then she grabbed the RPGs, handing one off to Chris.
"Ready, partner?" Chris asked.
"Locked and loaded," Sheva replied.
"Suck on this, Wesker."
"Your time's up, you son of a bitch."
They fired at him, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel a sense of satisfaction seeing those rockets blowing him into pieces.
Silence reigned in the helicopter. It was only when Josh flew us up and we could see the whole of Kijuju did Chris finally speak.
"It's over."
Sheva smiled. "Yes." A statement.
Chris turned to me, and I knew instinctively that this was our first real smiles since the ordeal. "Finally."

Sorry for this really late update. Anyway, there's still one more chapter to go, the epilogue.:) This chapter's pretty funny, since everything's pretty much already shown in-game, it's only a question of how Jill was able to contact Chris and Sheva, and maybe Josh, so yeah. Thank you guys for reading (if you still are :P) and I'm hoping to hear from you, so please, please leave a review or drop me a line.:)
