Claire woke up and all she could feel safe doing was to cry.
After a while Claire got dressed and left her room still crying a bit but not as intense looking over to her coffee pot,* That's going to be off-limits for a long time.*
Her phone went off, going back to her room and seeing a new message from Chris
Hey team,
Got work of an Umbrella head and they're going to be in the state and possibly at one of the old bases.
Going to raid Thursday mid-day.
-Chris
Looking over the message Claire started to think of a way to get back at Wesker.
*Just kill both of us now? No, that asshole doesn't deserve a simple thing.. Umbrella's bound to have something hidden if I can get it. I can become a monster to him as well but also to Chris and the team. Why me, what did I do to deserve this?*
Claire put her phone down and left her apartment to get a pregnancy test and quietly prayed it was negative.
Once at the Pharmacy( I'm pretty sure this is the only place you can get a pregnancy test besides a hospital).
Seeing it was a slow morning with some people getting medication refills walking straight to where pregnancy tests would be Claire grabbed one and quickly and quietly walked to the checkout,
"Late night last night?"
"Kind of. Can't really remember much."
"Hope you weren't drinking you don't look 21."
"I wasn't just not a ton of sleep, lot of school work and hung out with friends. The night felt like a blur."
"Sound's like my college experience. That's going to be a $1.50, miss."
Claire paid and left the store and ran back to her apartment since the streets got a bit busier. Once at home Claire went to the bathroom.
After about 10 minutes the test showed that in fact, she was pregnant," You piece of shit."
Throwing the test in the garbage in her bathroom and storming back to her room Claire sat away from the bed and saw she had 2 new messages,
Hey Claire,
You onboard for the raid you didn't answer any of my calls? Still a late sleeper?
Chris.
*No, your niece or nephew is Albert Wesker's kid and I might become the bad guy asshole.*
The next one was from Leon,
Hey Claire, how are you doing we haven't talked much lately and I'm a bit worried about you. Call or text me if you want to talk I'll be your free therapist.
*Thanks Leon, but I can't tell you everything.*
Claire set her phone back on her nightstand and got out 'The Phantom Of The Opera' the one thing that has been in her family for a long time and was one of the first copies that her great-great-great-great-grandfather had translated to English from french. Looking at the inside of the cover had all the owners names in and when they got it,
Louis Monnice, Sep '09
Gerald Monnice, Jul '17
Arinna Green, May '29
Mary Batery, Oct '47
Terra Batery, Feb '62
Samantha Winkester, Sep, '71
Claire Redfield, Aug, '84
The book was in semi-good condition and when reading it Claire felt like her family was watching over her. While Claire was reading the book her phone went off and she had run out of tears,
"Hello?"
"HEY, CLAIRE!"
"Who are you?"
"You don't remember me?"
"I have multiple options on who you are."
"Natalie, you un-boilogical sister?"
"Oh, can you not yell at me this early again?"
"Claire two things, one it is noon and two have you had a cup of coffee?"
"No, haven't been feeling too good lately."
"You need me to come over?"
Claire hung up on Natalie before she answered and went back to reading her book in silence. Once she was done with her book and felt a little better mentally, the damn phone went off again and it was a message from Rebbeca,
Claire you going on the raid to umbrella on Thurs? Whole teams but you are going.
Claire only wrote yes and also told Chris she was going as well,*Should I become a monster? It's what he is and what he'll want the kid to be. But if I become a monster and let this kid be one along with me. We could avoid him.*
Claire stopped thinking as someone was knocking at her door, looking through the peephole it was her neighbor,
"Redfield, if you make a noise like that again I will report you to the manager."
"What noise? I think there was a party above me."
"Oh, well it did sound like a party. Sorry to interrupt you."
The woman walked off and went up the stairs to find the party people and chewed them out for having alcohol. Claire laughed a little since she had been chewed out by the woman a few weeks ago because of a horror movie that got her good.
It had started raining again and probably wasn't going to stop as it had in the morning, going back into her apartment Claire shut all windows and covered them with curtains. The clock said it was about 14:30(2:30 PM), Claire turned on John Carpenters Halloween and ate something since she hadn't eaten since about 18:00(6:00 PM) the previous night.
Once the movie was over Claire went to shower and then would go to bed. Once showering Claire saw the bruises Wesker left and thought it was a miracle she didn't have bones broken. Claire somehow managed to cry even more,* I'm disgusting letting him do that to me.*
Claire tried washing away Weskers touch but it wouldn't go away. Once she felt it had gone down a bit Claire left the bathroom and quickly changing and crawling to bed,
*Didn't get a lot of sleep last night can't make it up. What do I do now I can't go to anyone, guess it's just you and me kid. I'm sorry.*
Claire barely managed to go to sleep but once she did she was out cold and didn't wake up to any calls that she was getting.
