Jungle Queen!
Episode 2: Love and War!
"Oookay! You two ready?" Becca asked, put in the position of being a mediator between Claire and Leon's current competition to see who's truly the best.
"Just say the word and get ready to see me whoop Leon's butt six ways from Sunday" Claire boasted, stretching her legs ready for the race, sneaking an occasional glance towards Leon as he did similarly.
"Mmm... Kinky" Leon remarked, cheekily raising his eyebrows in suggestive fashion.
"GO!" Becca exclaimed, giving the signal that sent the two nudists running, he and Claire pelting at full speed across the beachfront in a race towards Becca's specified destination... However this race holding intentions a little more significant than what Leon or Claire could ever suspect.
After all if proving one was better than the other was truly their concern, then why continue to compete at all?
No, there was something much more intimate to the heart going on here.
Something that one Rebecca Chambers was privy to being the self proclaimed 'Lovemiester' she was.
It was no secret to anybody with a functioning brain that Claire and Leon were in love with one another. Becca knew this to be true by how they acted around each other. And yet... Neither one admitted their feelings.
This could not go unspoken.
As such in her gleeful smile was a plan held within the mind of the Lovemiester to get these two together. The nude girl formulating a plan based on their many races together to truly isolate a scenario that would make Claire and Leon admit their feelings to each other and finally become a cute couple.
Naturally she would've asked Jill for help in how to set up a situation where the two competitive Nakeds would fall in love with one another. But the Valentine girl was already occupied in another activity with a partner Becca most definitely approved of, and did not want to get in the way of any romantic developments between Jill and her handsome Jungle man.
Giggling cheerfully, Becca took it upon herself to jot down some mental notes, carefully studying how Claire and Leon played off against each other during a race and seeing how she could best get them in a situation where they might just let slip how they feel about each other.
Ah will scientific wonders ever cease?
For one whose only romance experience came from animal mating documentaries, Becca most certainly hoped so, happily skipping her away across the the jungle hoping that her timing would be absolutely perfect for maximum romance.

Deeper within the Jungle laid a circular pit constructed by Chris, one not too dissimilar from the one Sheva had made when she and Jill had last clashed against each other. However this merely being a circle in the dirt drawn with a stick.
Placing a hand on her hip, Jill held a sense of reproach about being trained against Chris. The Valentine girl worried that she might accidentally hurt him like the time she lobbed a rock that was intended for Sheva but accidentally hit the nude Redfield man instead... A true 'oopsies' if there ever was one.
"The arena is set. Now what you will be learning is very important to a Huntress in keeping others safe from predators. The first thing I will teach you is how to grapple with a beast" Chris stated, speaking very formally in the hopes that every word he said would stick into Jill's head. Knowing full well that the fundamentals of Close Quarters Combat was essential for any warrior worth their salt.
"Are you sure I'm strong enough for this? I mean you've got a hot bod- I MEAN STRONG PHYSIQUE! So ah... Do you think I'm up for it?" Jill exclaimed, her thoughts betraying her as she absentmindedly found herself focusing on Chris's toned abs, her cheeks pinkening once the remark escaped her lips.
"No matter how strong you are. It is important to remember that all beasts have a weak point, and by grappling that weak point you can hold large beasts no matter how big they are if you know where to grapple" Chris explained.
"Any specific places you recommend grabbing?" Jill inquired.
"Well this is all dependent on the beast. For beasts you are best to wrap your arms around their head. however for those who have claws it is important to ensure that you are behind them so their claws cannot carve at your beautiful body" Chris answered, the latter part of his remark speaking out of tongue as his member started rising up, catching Jill's attention as her eyes drew in towards his obvious affection.
Taking immediate action Jill acted on instinct, lunging towards Chris as she pinned him to the ground with a salacious look in her eyes, catching the wild man off guard as she held him by the wrists onto the dirty ground beneath her feet, inches away from meeting his thick, hardened 'equipment'. Doing her best to maintain control so that she didn't do something she would regret later.
"You mean like this?" Jill breathed heavily, desperate to shake off her primal urges she didn't know she had, hoping to awkwardly move the conversation away from her lust before in a sudden movement, Chris had forcefully pushed her off, sending her flying back, colliding onto the dirt before he swiftly leapt behind her and grappled her by the neck with his left arm and held her arms with his right arm hooked behind them.
Blushing heavily Jill could feel something fleshy poking her in the butt, very close to sensitive spots of her body that while the more prudish part of her personality would object. Secretly Jill would've been more than happy to let a man as well endowed as Chris in so he could unleash the primal intoxication that the Jungle could offer Jill as an intimate experience.
"Y-yeah" Chris stammered. How he so badly wanted to just unleash every passionate desire he had pent up over the many months that he knew Jill for, loving nothing more than to make her his mate and breed cubs with her like he had seen among other mating rituals with the animals that littered the jungle.
All it'd take was one thrust to plunge deeply into her body to experience pleasure that he wanted to share unto her. Inhaling her scent, feeling the rapid beat of her heart mixed with his own. The sweat that slick their bodies was intoxicating driving both of them wild, Chris hoping that Jill wanted exactly what he wanted so they could just let their carnal passions take over. He would've loved nothing more than to indulge in his urges...
But alas he relented.
He was unaware of what Jill felt for him, what she wanted of him. And until he could work up the confidence to ask, he would remain steadfast until he could gather the courage and self respect necessary to understand Jill's feelings and show her that he did care for her beyond mere breeding and a desire for intimacy.
"So... Um, grab em by the neck and wrists, right?" Jill asked awkwardly, her cheeks burning in the intimately close space she was between a man she wanted and the personal space to maintain control of her urges and actually fulfill the desired training that would make her undefeatable in battle, torn between her goal and the man she was trying to discern whether she loved as a partner or loved as a figure of inspiration.
"Yes As I am err... showing you" Chris answered, quickly releasing Jill. Unsure of what he might've done had he stayed there a bit longer. offering his hand to help Jill to her feet, almost feeling ashamed of himself that he could not control himself around seeing the woman of his dreams just standing there all naked for him.
Taking a deep breath, Chris needed to find a way to cool down, find a way for Jill to practice without being in danger of a severe threat but also without risk of Chris exposing his true affections for Jill in a way that would be... Compromising.

"FOOLISH HUMAN FOOLS OF FOOLISHNESS! I simply cannot take it anymore!" Wesker screeched,unable to take sitting around await Ada's instructions whatever she might have given. Wesker was too energized with passion for his evil schemes to wait for some meddlesome women to give him the order to do what he was put on this earth to do.
Sneaking out little by little, Wesker kept his sunglasses hidden eyes darting around like a paranoid freak. Carefully observing his environment for ENEMY ADAs who would stop him and yell at him very derogatory things that hurt his feelings. Needless to say Ada Wong did not like him very much.
*SNEAK* SNEKKY SNEAK* *SNEAKERIFIC*
"Mr Sunglasses what are you doing?" Sherry inquired, looking curiously at Wesker having failed his stealth mission if he could be easily detected by a six year old girl.
"Ah yes! Young Birkin. Pay me no mind. I am merely indulging in my stealthy activities to become a master sneaker!" Wesker announced loudly.
"Ayyy! Shut up over there would ya with the screaming and the flamboyant movements!" Yelled out a random blue collar 'woikin' dude on a coffee break, sick and tired of Wesker's antics. His surly attitude quickly disposed of as Wesker slammed his fist against a big red shiny button that ejected the teamster through the skylight and into the sky and far away.
"Can I play?" Sherry asked happily, getting her hopes up to do something fun ever since that big meanie Ada stopped making things fun for her around the labs.
"Alas young Birkin you cannot. This is a top secret mission. HOWEVER! You will be given the most IMPORTANT MISSION OF ALL... Keeping this a secret" Wesker proclaimed with little control to the boisterous volume of his voice.
"Are you scared of that Meanie lady finding out and hurting you again?" Sherry queried, having scene the frequent beatings Wesker suffered whenever he foolishly attempted to reassert his dominance over the facility. The sunglasses wearing mad scientist quickly coming to learn the true power of high heeled shoes as weapons once they were jabbed and crunching down onto certain... 'manly' body parts.
"I FEAR NOT THAT EVIL WOMAN FROM WHICH YOU SPEAK! I just... err, want her to mind her own business. YES! THAT'S IT! Can you keep my intentions a secret Young Birkin?" Wesker rambled, salvaging his pride (or lack thereof) against any slanderous accusations that he feared the iron lady whom kept the Umbrella staff under a tightly controlled regime.
Letting her thoughts sift for a second, Sherry knew that Mr Sunglasses could be very very silly and do lots of evil plans that would get blowded up in his face. But Sherry liked it cuz it made everything more fun around here, which after Ada got to the lab there the whole 'having fun' thing was the first to go.
"Okie Smokie! Your secret's safe with me" Sherry affirmed, giving Wesker a small smile and a thumbs up.
"EXCELLENT! Now if you'll excuse me young Birkin. I HAVE SOME SNEAKING TO DO!" Wesker exclaimed enthusiastically, turning back around towards the small hangar where the Weskermobile lay before him.
However in his path he could see only see the Ada standing right in his way, arms folded and looking like she was ready to beat the snot outta Wesker for being up to no good.
"Err, AH YES! Miss Ada Wong, CHARMED to meet you on this LOVELY day!" Wesker stammered, attempting to make a recovery from his rambling self by feigning a charming ignorance, taking Ada by the hand and giving it a kiss.
Unfortunately for Wesker however the only thing he got to smooch was Ada's knuckle sandwich, smashing him in the jaw.
"Owies... This is like my high school prom date all over again" Wesker mumbled as he lay on the floor, trying to pick himself up from the floor.
"A charmless worm like you able to get a date? I can't imagine why. Women would be repulsed by you. Especially after Helena rejected you right in front of everybody" Ada remarked, taking an immense joy in making Wesker feel worthless as a small smirk graced her lips as she decided to twist the knife in the hopes of bringing a 'pleasant' memory back to Wesker's mind.
"*Sniff* She ditched me at the prom and I've never recovered sinc- HEY! HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS!? THAT'S PERSONAL PRIVATE INFORM... Oh dear god!" Wesker trailed off, his skin turning pale as repressed memories started to boil up to the surface.
"Remember me now Albie? I'm sure now that you remember we'll have a lot to talk about. Like that 'harem incident' for instance" Ada chuckled softly, the displeasure Wesker felt something Ada was savoring now that she could take her psychological torment to the next level with a very personal story from his past.
"AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!" Wesker screamed hysterically, running for his bed to weep.
"That should keep him in line" Ada stated coldly, returning to the control room leaving Sherry alone to wonder what made the usually exuberant Mr Sunglasses so scared all of a sudden. Heading towards Wesker's quarters to find out what happened.

"Hee hee! This is gonna be amazing!" Becca giggled, spying from her optimal shipping position in a tree masked with many leaves and branches giving her a perfect view of the small beach cove overlooking the sea with a beautiful afternoon view of the setting sun. A place Becca liked to coin 'Lover's Cove'.
A small little slice of heaven Becca had scoped out when she went exploring for new herbs, owing thanks to her faithful Lemur Laz, the creature currently perched on Becca's shoulder as the two waited with excitement to see if Becca's experiment would prove a rousing success.
If she could get Claire and Leon totally alone and in a private more relaxed kinda place then they'd have no choice but to admit their love to each other and have lots of cute babies together... Well maybe that last part was Becca being overambitious, but she stayed positive about the potential results of their new found unity.
Small chirps from Laz gave Becca the go ahead to know that Claire and Leon were on their way. Their footsteps becoming audible as they bantered among each other. Some light teasing but mostly jovial laughter as they maintained their competitive streak to the very end.
"WHOOO! Suck it Jungle boy, I WON!" Claire cheered, boastfully flipping Leon off as she gloated about her latest victory.
"Yeah, yeah... I would've totally had you if the jiggle of your butt wasn't so distracting" Leon panted, trying to turn his loss into a veiled attempt at flirting as if to save face.
"LEON!" Claire exclaimed, conflicted on whether to be surprised that he was acting on base lusts or if he was paying her a compliment in a really pervy Leon kinda way.
"Hey, I'm just appreciating your natural beauty" Leon remarked, slyly smiling in the hopes that despite his usual lusty nature could be, his true feelings could be expressed.
"Yeah, sure you are" Claire scoffed rolling her eyes, sneaking glances at Leon's eye brows raising suggestively with a goofy grin across his face. Claire couldn't help but smile, a giggle escaping her lips.
"Hey wasn't Becca supposed to be here? She was supposed to be our judge" Leon pondered, looking around for any sign of his hyperactive science loving friend.
"Maybe she's still trying to catch up?" Claire suggested. Unknowing that the nude science girl was watching from a distance, hoping the two would use this peace and quiet to finally get together.
A brief moment of silence overcame the two, standing around awkwardly with no one to distract them and nothing going on that they could divert their attention towards.
"So uh..." Leon trailed off, his mind failing him for a joke, a romantic gesture or cunning remark.
"Yeah?" Claire inquired, her thoughts drifting inward, a small dosage of anxiety settling in as she found herself in an ideal setting to let her inner feelings be heard for her and Leon's ears only.
Both turning to look out upon the bay whilst the sunset glistened across the water, the two soon to be lovers sat upon tree stump that overlooked the waters, just taking a moment to breathe in the sights just in each other's company. A moment's reprieve from their usual bickering banter and just letting the atmosphere take them wherever it was gonna lead them.
Inhaling a deep breath Claire's tranquil moment soon turned to one of internal conflict. She knew deep down there was something there between Leon and herself. She knew how she felt about him. What it was she loved about him in how he was quick with a joke (in spite of his lewd remarks) but all the same determined to fight to the bitter end no matter the odds. She was in a way like him. Determined, full of energy and willing to crack a lighthearted jape to ease the tension.
Claire was already self assured enough on her own thoughts. But Leon's thoughts and affections for her was a different story.
Sure she had her brother, but he was a guy who wore his emotions as nakedly as he presented himself. But Leon was a guy of more sophisticated upbringing, a past Claire had to admit she knew nothing about.
To ask him about such things made her nervous. Would she be treading ground that he would be uncomfortable with? Would he be totally cool with it and let her into his innermost thoughts? Would anything be indicative of his true love for her?
Was it physical? Did he love her for who she was as a person?
All of these questions frightened her. Mulling over and subtly probing Leon for anything that might've shown that he liked her in the same way she liked him. While Leon flirted with her like he usually did, there wasn't anything Claire could pin point as concrete, at least no more so in his remarks towards Jill by comparison to her. And Claire had the suspicion that Leon knew Jill was firmly within Chris's romantic territory.
And if he didn't, Chris would more than certainly assert his dominance to show him that he would be more than willing to rip his arms off if they had a battle for Jill's heart.
Sighing softly Claire just relaxed her mind into a peaceful state, pushing these romantic thoughts from her brain, fearful of ruining the moment if Leon happened to catch onto her tense thoughts about the future.
He was a guy after all and guys are dense.
"Man, I never get tired of seeing the beach side in the afternoon glow. Back in Raccoon City we never got to see a beach so calm, soothing or as relaxingly warm like this" Leon spoke up, breaking the silence in a wistful tone of voice that seemed so strange coming from a guy who usually didn't think things too deeply.
"Why's that?" Claire inquired, not wasting a moment like this to get a deeper insight into Leon's inner thoughts.
"Way too packed with people. Never had any space to really take a breather and calm down. In fact honestly before I ever met Becca and Jill I kinda used to sneak out late at night to just kinda take in the sights of the beach in the moonlight" Leon explained, casting his mind a few years back to a place where he could find solace in his loneliness overlooking the coast where he never would've thought in a million years that he would've set sail and traversed the seas away from his old life like he'd always wanted to do.
"What was it like?" Claire asked, having seen the sight of a beach illuminated by the moon she passed it off as something as natural as the rising sun, how such a banal thing seemed like it was the most interesting thing in the world to Leon was a mystery Claire was interested in hearing the answer to.
"Something totally indescribable. Like I was just on the cusp of getting away from it all and being truly free ya know?" Leon answered, his tone wistful if melancholy given his desire to leave all those years ago.
Meanwhile up in the trees, a nude science loving girl was just anticipating the eventual result of this little romantic spiel, antsy to have Leon just speak up and reveal his true feelings.
"C'mon Leon, say it... Say it" Becca whispered to herself from a far distance, waiting on tenterhooks for the confirmation of her ship to become official. If not Leon then at least Claire to prompt him into finally making the move.
"Well I guess now at least you've finally been able to fulfill that wish. I mean you're naked and free from wherever the hell ya used to be" Claire remarked, wrapping her arms around her man, leaning her head upon his shoulders with a warm smile gracing her lips. The perfect mood was set, and if Claire had timed this right, her subtle gesture could've been all Leon needed to get the idea that she cared for him on as deep a level as she hoped he cared for her.
"C'mon... C'mon dang it" Becca mouthed silently, her nose twitching as a sensation was building up from within.
"Aah... Aah. Oh no!" Becca gasped, realizing the impending doom that would ruin her experiment.
"Heh, Totally. A nice beach, warm weather, no clothes restricting my naked body... And best of all I've got you who I really want to be my girlfrie-"
"AAAACHOOOO!" Cried out a loud sneeze, alerting the the two budding lovebirds, snapping them out of their conversation. The romance killed stone dead as Becca and Laz fell from the trees, kerplunking onto the ground with leaves sauntering to the ground after Becca had lost her grip.
"Becca? What were you doing up there?" Claire inquired, silently cursing that her one moment to get closer to Leon with some alone time was ruined by her ill-timed appearance.
"Owwwies! My tummy hurts" Becca whined, falling flat on her stomach, curling into a ball as she cradled her body whilst Laz scampered off to find some herbs to fix Becca's pain.
"Sheesh, and I thought Jill had trouble vine swinging. Seriously though what took ya so long?" Leon inquired, aiding Laz in picking a few green herbs growing nearby.
"I got kinda lost and I needed Laz to help me, but then I got very sneezey and lost my balance soooo, umm... yah you kinda know what happened after that" Becca replied, keeping her motives hidden since she didn't want to make the couple mad if her attempts to interfere with their love lives tore them away from each other. She didn't want it to be her fault if Claire got angry at her for ruining the moment.
"Super sorry you guys were waiting so long" Becca apologized, looking at Claire specifically since she could see the frustration in the nude Redfield girl's eyes from being inches away from confessing her love.
"Don't sweat it Becca, to be honest this cove is actually pretty nice. I think me and Jungle boy here might make this our special place" Claire sighed, taking the good with the bad and hoping that with her little suggestion this could be the perfect spot to get her and Leon some more alone time and come one step closer to finding out how he truly feels.
"If by 'special place' you mean sexual place then I'm all for it Jungle babe" Leon slyly japed, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively, earning him a light slap on the butt from Claire. The nude girl in too good of a mood to really take offense towards Leon's lusty jokes, especially now that she had a deeper insight into his personality than she ever did previously.

"GRRRAH!" Jill grunted, pinning Chris to the ground, their bodies pressed together as she knelt against his back, keeping his neck and arms restrained, breathing heavily, slicked with sweat after a lengthy session of mastering the art of grappling.
"Ah... I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of this" Jill panted. Faintly blushing as she reveled from the adrenaline rush granted to her by the last hour spent wrestling with Chris... In very very close proximity. Earlier moments didn't help matters given that she could name more than a few occasions where 'Chris jr' prodded her as if to say hello.
"We will have to keep practicing before you are able to tackle more dangerous beasts. But you have done very well to adapt towards one of the most important fighting skills needed to survive any confrontation" Chris spoke factually, letting his pride in Jill's abilities show given how well she was able to pick things up.
"You know, if you'd asked me to do this before back when I used to wear clothes I wouldn't be anywhere near as willing to do this, but it feels good to be able to pick this stuff up. I wasn't exactly the best P.E student" Jill chuckled softly, releasing Chris from her grapple, offering him a helping hand up before brushing loose stands of hair out of her face.
"Keep in mind that I was not fighting at full strength. I will not be so easy to take down next time" Chris remarked, Jill arching an eyebrow, wondering if this was an attempt to save face for his male pride.
"Oh is that so? Are you afraid that a little girl like me might be able to contain the might of the Jungle King?" Jill teased, riding her current wave of confidence that she could come out on top of Chris despite his years experience living and brawling in the jungle.
"Then if you are to match my skills in fighting. Would that not make you my Jungle Queen?" Chris inquired, the idea of he and Jill coming closer together in both romance and combat skill very appealing to the nude Redfield male as she could protect him as much as he could protect her. The very turn of phrase flustering the Valentine girl, blushing profusely given she was caught off guard by Chris's postulation.
"W-well I mean, like you said I still have a lot to learn a-and plus like I said. In school I was more of a MATH-lete than an Athlete" Jill stammered, gazing downward in the vain attempt to use her S.T.A.R.S. beret to hide her blush.
"Then we shall continue our sparring practices until you are ready to fight on the level of a true Jungle Queen" Chris stated with confidence, placing his palm atop Jill's shoulder. Jill smiling warmly with the added encouragement influencing her to keep trying and show to the world that she would indeed become the Jungle Queen.

"Hmmm..." Ada pondered quietly, sitting inside the control room analyzing various recordings of what little footage there was of the group that had foiled Umbrella's plans time and time again. The so called 'Nakeds' constant attempts to outwit what Ada had to admit was an already incompetent group of Umbrella employees. But even she couldn't believe that a dummy like Wesker, Wiliam Birkin or even Sherry whom was bizarrely allowed to go on dangerous missions despite being six years old would falter in the presence of nudists living a savage lifestyle on a deserted island.
Least of all since Umbrella had the power of superior technology.
But rumors, mismanagement and gross incompetence was all too common around here. Annette cold as she could be trusted Ada to clean up this mess and as such she needed to straighten out the mess. But the troops Wesker already had at his disposal had filed for resignation, something about a 'nude goddess woman' who fitted the physical description of one 'Jill Valentine' having displayed lightning powers with a golden shine that burned her clothes away into nothing, giving way to nakedness.
She would definitely be one to study up for weaknesses.
But worst of that scenario was that now Ada was stuck without a gang of troops to lead another assault on the Island. This time she would not be so callous with her choices, hand picking the troops herself. Some were willing, some were too high a price and some were just impossible to find such as the esteemed H.U.N.K.
As such she her choices were limited, but there were many choice candidates who were at least a reasonable cut above the rest of the rabble whom were working her previously.
H.U.N.K - Designation: Impossible to locate
Megaman - Designation: Refusal as per his caretaker Dr Thomas Light's instructions
"Regina" - Designation: S.O.R.T. Operative kept away from Umbrella's reach, believed to be fighting Dinosaurs.
Rad Spencer - Designation: Impossible to locate
Nikolai Zinoviev - Designation: Potential Candidate
Mikhail Victor - Designation: Potential Candidate
Carlos Olivera - Designation: Potential Candidate
Of the three potential candidates who had shown interest, Ada contemplated their combat records Curious if they could do the job in a way where a platoon of lesser skilled troops had failed. While she was holding out for the higher tiered candidates on the list, time was running short and so too was Annette Birkin's patience on finding The Fortune buried deep within the Island.
Against her more cynical judgement, Ada had offered to accept the three potential candidates onto her employ, hopeful that she could bring a swift end to The Nakeds and wash her hands of this mess once and for all.
