Ada woke up in the dark. It was still night, but Ada had slept very well for some reason. She walked over to the stream they were near, sat on a large, round rock, and slipped off her shoes. She so wanted to get out of her dress, and into a loose tank-top and sweatpants. She'd been in the dress for five days now. Of course, she had to dress the part of someone who isn't searching for a virus that could change the outcomes of wars. She dipped her feet into the cold water. Goosebumps crawled up her arms from the cold. She leaned back on her palms.
Light was breaking when Leon woke up. Sherry was still conked out, and Leon saw Ada on her rock, her bare feet splashing lightly in the water. He saw a helicopter fly overhead. He quickly stood up, and waved his arms. "Hey! Down here! Please look!" He shouted, but this helicopter was going very fast, and not about to stop. Then, he felt the small rumble under his feet.
Ada felt the water around her bare ankles ripples as she heard Leon. She looked over her bare shoulder at him, and saw a trail of smoke going into Raccoon City. "Leon! Get down!" She screamed, and rolled to the ground, and covered her head. Without thinking, Leon did the same, only covering Sherry, who woke from his contact.
"Leon? What's going on?" Sherry asked afraid.
"Don't know, but something, Scooter-Pie. Just be brave like Claire, ok?" Leon said. Claire…
The explosion was huge. Even though Ada, Leon, and Sherry were a good five or six miles away from the blast, it through him back into the air. They all landed in the stream, each one of them cutting something on the rocks that was the ground of the water.
They did it. The goddamn bastards actually did it. They wiped Raccoon City off the map…literally… Ada thought as she was tossed through the water like a rag-doll through the air. Before she knew it, Ada was washed up on the opposite shore. She through her head back, whipping her hair out of her face, and saw the huge cloud of smoke that used to be Raccoon City. Her gray eyes were wide, and she suddenly remembered Leon and Sherry. She fearfully searched the shore and water for them. She saw Leon crawl up on the shore, followed very slowly by Sherry. She saw that Leon had a large gash on his shoulder, and suddenly realized the blood soaking her dress because her gunshot wound had been opened. Suddenly, she felt very weak.
"A-Ada? Sherry, are you ok?" Leon asked. He tightly held his arm, where the reopened wound that Annette gave him was.
"Yeah. My arm hurts, but I'll live." She said. Her arm has been cut across her forearm. It was deep, but she was lucky it was all she got. Ada and Leon didn't have the same luck, because they were bigger than the 12-year-old.
"Stay here, Sherry. I need to find Ada." Leon said. He couldn't believe it-
-they blew up Raccoon. Unbelievable. They just took it out, and who knows if there were survivors. What about the towns near it? God, we are so lucky to be alive. But…
"Ada?" Leon screamed. She had fallen to her knees, bleeding heavily. She was breathing deep. "Ada!" Leon saw her, and started to run, ignoring the sharp pain on his arm, and the newer pair under his eye, where he felt the warm blood run down his cheek.
"Le-Leon…" Ada managed to get out. She saw the monster come out of the forest first. She was breathless as it ran towards Leon. She couldn't even scream to him that it was coming for him. It's large fist slammed into Leon's bad shoulder, and Leon rolled into a dead stop, face down in the shore. Sherry's face was pale. Her blue eyes huge, tears of fear streaming down. The monster turned to Ada. It's face set with that bloody, perminate smile from lack of lips stared at Ada.
"Aaaaaaaddddaaaaaaaa…" The monster…said!
Ada's eyes narrowed. HCF sent this thing to make sure I was dead. The bastards.
She slowly stood up. The pain from her wound gone. She pushed it away. She lifted her gun that had miraculously stayed in her belt through the blast. She gritted her teeth, and looked into the chamber. Twelve shots, one extra clip. She opened fire, aiming for the creature's face, hoping to blind it. The bullets hit it in the face and throat, barely slowing it down. Black gore poured onto the black trench coat it wore. She kept firing.
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve!
She quickly ejected the empty clip, and slapped in a new one. The monster was in striking distance. It swung a huge hand at Ada's head. She jumped back. The creature's yellow-white knuckles had only gotten her long, wet bangs. Her ankle hit a large rock, and it rolled, sending a sharp alarmness of pain as she fell. She silently cursed, and watch the creature stand over her.
The black blood that coursed through his vile veins splashed from the back of it's head. It turned around, and the creature started to walk to Leon, who was now up, his wounded arm limp at his side, and holding his magnum in his other hand. He fired again, hitting the monster square in the left eye. A thick, dark slime splashed out of it's head as it screamed a high pitch howl. Leon fired the remaining three rounds of his clip into the creature, making it stumble back. Leon's gun went dry, and he reached for his pocket for his next six rounds. Ada limped over to the side of a large rock, and fired. All of the seven shots she fired hit the back of the creature from HCF's head. The creature grabbed it's left hand, and ripped it off, black blood splashing and making a dark puddle on the mud.
What the Hell? Leon thought, but was answered as a three long blade-looking claws came from the wound. Leon slapped the chamber of his magnum shut, and opened fire. The bullets hit the side of the monster's now gore covered head as it turned to Ada.
It wants me. It wants to kill me before we kill it. It's got to be getting weaker! This is the final thing it must do! Ada thought. She fired four shots at the creature, each one embedding itself into the creatures face. Leon emptied three shots into the back of the creature's head. They both had one last shot. Ada closed her eyes as the monster slowly stumbled towards her. It's one white eye the only thing recognizable in it's blood-covered head. She opened her right eye, and aimed, and fired.
Leon knew he had to make this last shot count. He tried to find the biggest set of dents he had created in the creature's head. He closed his left eye, and fired.
The bullets met inside the head of the creature. The blow of the metal and metal cause a quarter of the creatures head to blow off, sending pieces of flesh, bone, and brain out, and they splattered in the mud, and on the rocks. The creature flopped lifeless to the same side as the huge wound in it's head. Ada and Leon both walked to it, and looked down. Leon got onto one knee, and found the merged bullets on the ground next to the monster. He washed it of gore in the stream, and held it up to Ada.
"Nice shot." Leon said.
"Same goes to you, rookie." Ada said.
Sherry came from her hiding spot. She looked as happy as she did scared. "Did…You kill it?"
"Yeah, it's dead." Leon said, and then he saw the helicopter start to lower to a clear area near them.
