Picking back up where we last Ethan was about to leave the house Beneviento just as he was about to he felt two arms wrap around his chest, he heard a whisper in his ear "thank you".the arms released their hold allowing him to keep moving forward. After he made his way to the elevator he pushed the down button and waited. When he finally made it down he made it back to the center pillar, after putting the second flask in the pillar he decided to talk to the duke. He presented the Duke with some animal meat he was holding onto and asked if he could do something with it. moments later Ethan was eating something the Duke had cooked up. After finishing his meal he said bye to Duke and went on his way to face moreu.
The duke's cooking was nice in Ethan's opinion but it wasn't as good as what he ate at Donna's house, he would have to go back to see if he could get a recipe. focusing back to the task at hand he had just arrived at a windmill, he managed to.
get over the wall using a broken ladder. After unlocking the gate he made his way inside the windmill and ended up going down another elevator. He arrived at a mining site and after some exploring, he made it to moreu and the flask. After squeezing in between the wooden wall of Moreau's cabin and a green rock formation he made it to a window he quickly grabbed the flask. After a quick conversation with moreu(if it was up to me he should have just dipped out of there the second he got the flask)he had to find a way to escape. He made his way to an opening with a shed to the right. Out of nowhere, a Lycan grabbed his arm preparing to bite it, he used his other arm to grab his handgun and shoot it in the face.it fell back limp on the floor, Ethan made his way to the shed and grabbed I boat key from a hook on the wall" might need this" with that he ran back to the mines and found an exit to the outside. he made it to a lakeside cabin with a dock, at the end of the dock was a small motorboat. he hopped in and rode his way towards an exit he ended up at a reservoir where a large creature erupted from the water and submerged once again" what the hell was that" he made it to a different dock. he hopped out of the motorboat and followed the path it had to what seemed like a research camp. he felt someone grab his arms and immediately went into action he managed to suplex the man over his shoulder, but the man still got the upper hand pinning Ethan to the ground. Ethan heard a voice speak "got to say Ethan I'm surprised you made it this far" it was Chris "it would be a shame if anything happened to you now" "sure Chris after you explain why you killed mia" Chris started walking towards Ethan. A third man appeared talking about motion readings. Chris responded "what's moving? what's coming?" "Unknown, but my guess is we've been here for too long and Miranda knows it" that last sentence caused something to click inside of Ethan's mind " hey, hey did you say Miranda? What do you know about her?" " leave it alone Ethan you are out of your depth" in the distance Ethan could see something huge heading towards them. Chris addressed him again "stay out of our business Ethan" the large figure had finally breached and started destroying the cabin. Chris tried pushing Ethan away but Ethan grabbed his arm and pulled him towards him "oh no you don't". After a short while, the creature erupted from the water pushing Ethan back into the water. He managed to find a dock and climbed up. next to him moreu emerged from the water. After another chat with him, moreu fell into the water and transformed into the creature that attacked him earlier on. Ethan managed to escape by jumping from the wooden bridge he was standing on to a nearby rock that led to a fall. After falling he looked to his right to see a house. he ran over towards it, inside he found a control panel to the dam but it wasn't powered, he walked over to the other room and yet again he couldn't explain how but Duke was there. he gave up trying to understand how he got from place to place a long time ago. he bought a new shotgun and sold his old one, with the money he got from selling his old shotgun he bought a better backpack to store more supplies. After buying what he needed Ethan exited the building through a different door which led to a windmill. At the windmill, there was a crank-powered wheel at its side.' With that I can power the control pad ' he thought quickly moving towards the crank. He grabbed it and was using it until it broke in his hands "damn it". After that, he went inside the windmill and climbed down the ladder to the lower levels.
Insert puzzle/chase sequence here
After avoiding Moreu, Ethan made it to the second windmill, the one that had a working crank so he pulled it off and zip lined back to the first windmill. After cranking enough power into the control panel he re-entered the house to find Chris Redfield already at the panel pressing buttons, hearing someone enter he turned his head to find Ethan." Good work getting power running, with this, we can open the dam giving us a way out". still seeking answers Ethan grabbed the folds in Chris's jacket and asked "we're not opening anything until you explain what the hell is going on" "sit down Ethan I'll explain".after explaining why he shot Miranda who was disguised as Mia and why everyone in the village has gone mad and turned into lycans.
Getting most of it Ethan agreed to team up with Chris. he drained the dam and went to face Moreu. Chris had given him a phone to stay in touch, while Chris made his way back to his team.
(Now that Ethan is off to fight Moreu we will take a short hydration break and will go over to wholesome Donna time shortly)
Over at the Beneviento house, Donna was playing checkers with Angie, Donna was one move away from winning. seeing this Angie took her piece and cheated so she did not lose. after hearing Angie boast for five minutes about "winning". Donna tilted her head up and thought " I wonder what He's Doing " unknowingly she had said this out loud and Angie took full advantage of this. "Sounds like somebody has a crush on blondie" Donna shot her head to Angie and frantically tried to deny it, but at last, she had given up trying to. Angie talked again. "How bout you try asking him out?"
"Oh, he would be disgusted with my scar" "your such an idiot he already said you looked nice, maybe you should show him your face to prove he thinks that"
(And back to Ethan)
After defeating moreu Ethan was exhausted, he made his way to the exit, he entered Moreau's home, it was small, he grabbed the key part there and was about to leave when Heisenberg spoke through the tv.
After telling Ethan where the last flask is. Ethan unlocked the door and went back into the elevator. After a while, he made it to the top and walked out of the windmill he went over to the gate and opened it, walking back into the village he saw a huge metal sign with yellow paint saying "this way" deciding to ignore the sign, for now, he traveled to the flask pillar and inserted the third flask in the flask pillar.
Ethan had decided to go visit Donna before going to the stronghold. After passing the old bridge he made his way to the elevator and pushed the up button. After a short wait, he made it to the top and approached the house, and knocked at the door, "hey Donna it's me, Ethan", the door unlocked.
Ethan walked inside and looked around for Donna but she was nowhere in sight. He decided to sit down and wait for her to show herself. After a minute or two of waiting Donna finally appeared but this time she looked different. This was because this time she was not wearing her veil. Ethan could only stare as he admired her facial features, she looked quite similar to the painting but in real life, she was covering the right side of her face with her ebony black hair. she decided to sit down in a chair across from him, they stayed there silent for a while before Ethan broke the silence " well Donna I don't think you've taken a look at yourself because you look stunning".Donna's cheek turned a slight tinge of pink. Ethan spoke again "I came over to see if I could stay here for a bit, I need to rest. Donna agreed and told him that he could stay but still looked like he wanted to ask him something. He beat her to it " Hey do you have something you need to ask me?" Donna sighed and in a weak voice answered " I did want to ask you something " Ethan looked at her expectantly "what do you need to know?" "If you would want to go on a date" Angie cut in. whatever ethan was expecting it was not that. He carefully thought of his response as he wasn't sure what to say. He ended up accepting her request, although he requested to keep it short since he was still on the clock.
They decided to have a picnic on the side of the cliff Donna's house overlooked. They sat there feet dangling off the side of a cliff. While eating sandwiches, they were having a conversation about how Ethan had gotten his left arm cut off by a chainsaw. He was doing ninety-nine percent of the talking. After finishing their conversation they sat there in silence. After a couple of seconds, Donna tilted her head onto his shoulder. The peaceful scene is interrupted by a ringing phone." I have to take this'' after. Moving away he answered the call, "Ethan we are ready to infiltrate Heisenberg's factory, we just need you to create a distraction," ''I'm on it Chris'' Ethan turned to Donna" sorry but I'll have to cut the date short, I'll see you later", he then ran off towards the stronghold. she simply held her hand up as a sign of goodbye.
After arriving at the stronghold he fought off hordes of lycans to get to the inside. When he finally made it to the leader of the lycans it was a struggle to win. He had to dodge blow after blow of its giant hammer. He managed to limit its movements by shooting its knees.
After a long fight, Ethan stood victorious. He exited the rocky room through a red door.at the end of the room, he saw the last flask after picking it up he was congratulated by Heisenberg. while Heisenberg was distracted by Ethan, Chris and his team infiltrated the factory and prepared to start setting explosive charges. After exiting the stronghold via an elevator Ethan had arrived at the graveyard behind the church. After unlocking the gate that held him in, he made his way to the flask pillar, he inserted the final flask, and the final thing holding the pillar down released. Ethan picked up the pillar and slowly moved it to the ceremony site. He placed it down on top of the umbrella logo and it clicked into place. a bridge soon formed ahead of which led to Heisenberg's factory.
Ethan entered the factory cautiously, not knowing what to expect. He found a curtain and when he tried to unveil what it hid, he got stopped by Heisenberg. After a long rant about wanting to kill Miranda, he offered Ethan a deal, to team up and grind Miranda in the ground using Rose. he considered joining him but knew that they wouldn't be allies for very long after Chris blew up his factory. After declining Heisenberg's offer, he was let go into a trapdoor.
(And that is where we are gonna edit for today. Sorry for the late upload to me all day finish this chapter.)
