Chapter 2: Old & New Friends Reunite
Black Ops. 9 New York Base
Raine, Leon, Ark, Sherry, Rott and Lily walked down the warehouse stairs to find a very cool hideout complete with a kitchen, a wreck room, and bunkers for everybody to have their own room it they wanted. The three children ran into the wreck room and watched the T.V. Raine sat down at the table, as did Leon and Ark looked at her watch then back at the two men.
"The others should be here and minute now" and as if one cue the door to the hideout opened and in walked the rest of the Scooby Gang. "Good timing" Raine said to nobody in particular "yeah it was wasn't it?" Paige replied. Sherry had heard the door open and ran out to see if Claire was there and she was she was walking down the steps behind her brother who was holding hands with another woman and talking to Claire.
Sherry immediately ran towards Claire and as soon as she was down the stairs Claire gave her a big hug, Claire returned the hug.
"Claire! I knew you'd come back!" Sherry told her as she finally let her go.
"Glad to see you too Sherry!" Claire replied.
Claire stood up to see Leon and some other guy with him walking towards her.
"Hey Claire." Leon said to her.
Claire didn't respond back she just put her arms around him and hugged him tightly he hugged her back. Claire released him and looked up at his cool, blue eyes.
"It's good to see you Leon." she said then looked toward the unfamiliar man standing next to him "who's your friend?" She asked. Leon looked over toward Ark.
"This is Ark Thompson I met him when I was at the academy.he escaped another Umbrella incident." Leon continued "Ark this is Claire Redfield I met her in raccoon."
Claire and Ark shook hands and there was a moment of silence until Chris interrupted it with his husky voice.
"Hey Claire you okay?" he asked his sister.
Claire looked up at him "yeah why?" she replied
"Just wondering," he answered then he walked over to Jill, Barry, and the others.
"Ok everybody here are the sleeping arrangements if you don't like them that's tough shit." She went on "Jill and Chris get a room together, Barry can have his own room, Leon and Ark can have their own rooms as well, and the kids sleep in the same room. Paige and Ryan get a room together, Claire gets her own room, once Rebecca gets here she and Carlos will share a room and finally I'll get my own room." And went back to what she was doing on her computer.
Paige walked over to Raine "what?! I gotta bunk with that asshole?" she said in an exasperated tone of voice rain just simply answered with a "yes" and kept on doing whatever it was she was doing. Claire walked into the bunkroom and picked her room, Leon followed her as she walked into the room to find her unpacking her bags,
"Hey Claire whatta ya doing?" he asked her.
"Just unpacking." she replied.
Claire flipped through some of the clothing in her bag until she stumbled on a picture from when she was about four or five; it was taken just before her parents were killed in the accident. She thought she had lost the picture years ago, Leon walked over to her curious to see what she was looking at.
"This was taken before the accident." Claire said before he could even ask.
Claire put the picture in her vest and continued to ruffle through her clothes until she found something that reminded her of Steve, the two gold luggers she had gotten when they traded weapons and she held back tears and pushed the memory away then put the guns away. Leon noticed the distraught look on Claire's face as she looked at the guns but wasn't sure if he should ask any questions.
Claire looked back up at him "we better go back out with the others before they start think "bad thoughts" " Claire said jokingly and Leon smiled and the two walked out of the room to join the others.
KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Ah that must be Rebecca now" Raine said and the warehouse door opened and without a doubt it was Rebecca Chambers and she walked down the stairs and greeted everybody.
"Jill, Barry, Rebecca in for a game of pool?" Chris suggested and the trio nodded and proceeded to the wreck room, Leon and Ark played darts, Paige, Ryan were with Raine who was doing something on the computer, and the three children were dancing to the radio, and Carlos was just relaxing on the couch watching TV.
Claire followed in lastly and sat on a chair and watched everybody else play games against each other, she soon yawned and Chris saw it.
"Hey Claire you bored that badly?" Chris jokingly said a boyish grin appearing on his face as she looked up at him.
"Just tired." she simply replied.
"Why don't you try and get some sleep then?" he asked.
"No, I'm okay" she assured him.
Claire stood up and walked back out into the den and into her room then just sat on the bed, thinking about Steve.
Author's Notes: Well that's it stay tuned for the next chapter: A New Member To The Group. Lets just say it's an old friend of Claire's who was captured by Umbrella.
