**********************

Claire shut her eyes tight, and waited for the moment, a giant claw would impale her. Waiting....and waiting...... but it never came. Instead bullets were heard.

The bullet shots echoed through the hall, until the monster let out a terrible screech of pain, then a giant 'thunk' when it hit the ground.

Then there was silence. Claire let the noises around her sink in for a moment, before remembering she was still in the tentacles grip.

It was beginning to squeeze the life out of her, monster or no monster. Claire snapped her eyes open, and searched for something, anything that could help her, even a small combat knife would prove some use.

Instead of finding anything, the tentacle let out a giant screech of pain, and retreated back from where it came, after dropping Claire back on the hard floor.

Claire was in shock for a moment, before shaking her head. She glanced up in front of her, and watched a figure in the distance. It was approaching her, passing over the body of the monster thing.

At first she thought the figure was Wesker, but he didn't have a gun. At second she thought it was Alexia, but she wouldn't save her. Her heart filled with hope at the last thought: Steve?

********Back where Chris and them are********

(a/n I love cliff hangers....)

Chris pulled out all the maps he had found while on Rockfort island, and spread them out to find if they were any use.

Jill came in with a simple mug of coffee in her hand, and sat across from Chris. She began to study the larger maps of the world, that Chris had used to find his way to the island in the first place.

Rockfort island coordinates were circled in red when he went there. She began to help examine the maps, even though she knew it would be no good. There was nothing more here, then they already knew before.

"Hey Chris, anything yet?" She asked after the longest moment of silence.

Chris didn't even look up, and shook his head. There was a soft knock on the door, which got both their attention, but Jill beat him over there.

She swung open the door, to notice Leon just standing there.

"Leon?" She asked, watching all the papers he had in his hand.

"Is Chris in?" He asked, Jill inclined her head over to the table where Chris still sat.

Leon let out a sigh of relief, and dashed over. Once there, he spilled all the papers onto the table.

"Any luck yet?" Chris asked, just waiting for an answer, and expecting a no.

But this time, Leon gave some type of watery smile, then pulled out the biggest paper he had.

It was a map(you'd never guess) with a small island on it, and a giant volcano in the middle.

He pointed to it.

"Revelation island, that's where they took Claire. Its small, and a good drive away from here, so we should make it in a day flying." Leon announced happily.

Jill looked impressed, and Chris was just about to ask him how he got all this information, but decided against it.

"Well.....lets go." Chris went over and grabbed a bag, then rushed to the door, only to be knocked out of the way by Jill.

"Chris! We can't just go marching in there, for all we know they have troops just waiting for us. Really, we have to have a plain, I don't want us all to die!" Jill shouted, Chris was about to say something against it, but returned to the table where Leon was already plotting things.

*******Back on Revelation island**********

The blond women named Alexia, stood in shadows, watching one of her younger scientist type away at the large control panel.

"And?" Alexia asked not waiting any longer.

The scientist seemed to exit a program, and turned around.

"WDK4496-er- Claire Redfield has done away with the monster...she had some help." The scientist guiltly added.

"Had some help?" Alexia echoed. "BY WHO!" She boomed making a few rocks shake.

The scientist rolled back in their chair, not wanting to be anywhere near her.

"The person broke into their on time. There was nothing that could have predicted this!" The scientist tried to get away from subject. Alexia's eyes flashed dangerously, then took a few steps forward.

She grabbed the scientist chin, and brought it upwards so they were looking her in the eye.

"That's nice, but when are you going to tell me all the ones who broke in?" Alexia's voice seemed to rise, as she stared the younger one in the face.

The scientist began to shake in fear for their life, and managed to say.

"T-there were t-two. MSD6377 and... and MFD2872." The scientist gulped.

"Albert Wesker, and................and Steve Burnside." They managed to choke out.

She must have knew about Steve's strange 'death' and the soldiers for H.C.F. taking the body.

Alexia narrowed her eyes at the mention of that, or those names, then slamming the persons head on to the control consol, returned back into the cover of the shadows.

"No matter, let them come. I have a nice little plain for them....." Alexia let out this creepy laugh, and disappeared.

The scientist sat there shaking still, and rubbing their head.

"You freak, you don't deserve that power, and I'll make sure, you never see it off this island again." The scientist laughed at their own statement, and began typing into the main control consol. It was located in the underground the volcano, in the main lab.

Appearing on the blank screen now was a skull, and cross bones.

Then a timer at the bottom, it stated 48 hours, and counting down.

Then she picked up a microphone and said,

"The self-destruct system has been activated, all personal evacuate immediately." to be played when the clock reached 5:00....
