Chapter 6****
An old "friend"
Claire sat in the back of her brothers SUV. Her head was leaned up against the cold window. She could see the bright, colorful lights shining against the streets of Raccoon City.
" We're here!" Jill said cheerfully, turning to give Claire a large grin.
Claire forced a smile then rolled her eyes and let out a deep breath as Jill and Chris unbuckled their seatbelts. Chris reached his hand over the front of the car seat and playfully hit Claire on the side of the head.
" C'mon sis" he said with a half smile.
Claire frowned and reached over to unbuckle her seatbelt. "yeah, yeah"
Claire stepped out of the car and crossed her arms as the chilly winter air swept through her rather messy ponytail.
Jill looked at Chris " It's beautiful!"
Chris smiled and gesticulated at Claire. " C'mon, Im starving. Shall we get some grub?"
Jill smiled, all eyes on Chris, and clung to his arm " We shall"
Chris turned and pointed to the big green, neon sign that read: Joe's Bar and Grill.
Claire nodded and Chris and Jill started down the sidewalk, arm in arm. Claire
followed slowly and saw Jill giggle as they were walking. Claire rolled her eyes and turned to the side. Claire looked through all the brightly lit windows and sighed. Then one caught her eye. She walked up to the window and rested her hands on the glass. She could see a red vest that read " Let Me Live" on the back, it was the exact vest that Claire had on during the incident on Rockfort Island. She put her head closer to the glass, she could see the reflection of all the beautiful lights shining upon it. She then let out a long sigh, Claire could see the steam from her breath forming on the window. With her index finger she slowly made a large "S" through it. Completely lost in the moment she looked across the glass window. Suddenly Claire saw a reflection of a man in dark sunglasses, he seemed to be standing right behind her. Claire frowned and squinched her eyes, and then felt forced to take another look. She could see a red light that what seemed to be shining from where his eye was supposed to be. Claire gasped and turned around quickly.
" what the fuck....."
No one was standing there, in fact, no one was standing anywhere, they were all either walking, or running around. Claire grabbed one shoulder and looked around.
" Redfield....you've completely lost it" She whispered to herself and then realized Jill nor her brother were anywhere to be seen.
" Damn Chris....great, they left me....luckily they pointed out were we'd be going"
Claire crossed her arms again due to the chilly air and quickly made her way through the noisy throng.
finding her way****
Claire pulled her walkman out of her mini backpack and put the headphones over her ears. The city was beautiful, everyone was in the Christmas spirit....that is, except Claire.
The heart is a bloom
Claire walked faster, she had a bad feeling about that man she had seen looking in the glass.
Shoots up from the stony ground
Claire hummed the song, making her feel a little more secure though not fully.
But there's no room.... for space to rent in this town
All the people walking around her made her feel a bit a dizzy.
Your out of luck.....and the reason that you had to care...
" ...What the hell is wrong with me...."
The traffic is stuck..........and your not moving anywhere.....
The music continued to play. Claire was beginning to feel lightheaded, completely baffled by what was going on around her.
You thought you'd found a friend....to take you out of this place....
Claire was about a second from passing out cold.....she was clueless, confused, and hurt.
Someone you could lend a hand......in return for grace....
Suddenly the sky was spinning, Claire dropped to her knees, pressing the palm of her hand against her cold forehead. She was desperate to cry on someone....anyone's shoulder. Claire completely lost grip of herself, landing her cheek on the cold sidewalk.
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
The music continued to play....
Minutes later*****
Claire was waken by an old lady passing by, she found scratches all over her and offered to buy dinner, no need to payback, But Claire politely turned it down. She was standing only a few feet away from the Bar and Grill, but decided not to make an entry looking the way she did. Instead Claire stood leaning against the front of the building, head down, and still wondering what had caused her to pass out, perhaps to much stress was piling up.
" Hello miss Redfield "
Claire gasped. ***damn that voice!*** she looked up...and the expression on her face completely melted, along with everything that had ever worried her. He wasnt that clear, but she could tell that it was none other than Captain Albert Wesker. This man had betrayed her brother, including the rest of the S.T.A.R.S., tricking them into " playing" with his infected " friend", back at the Spencer estate. His handsome though ominous face was shaded by the night sky.
" Wesker!" Claire backed away and nearly tripped over her own foot.
" Why so frightened? Do I have something on my face?" Wesker smirked and laid his gloved finger against Claire's beautiful face, slowly caressing her cheek.
" Get the fuck away from me you bastard!" She forced his hand away fiercely, taking another step back. She was both hurt and angry at Chris for not even coming to look for her after all of this. Claire felt trapped and ready to cry.
" Come now Claire.............Don't you want to know what happened.........or should I say....what is happening to that friend of yours? What's his name......? Ahhh yes........Steve it is." Wesker laughed and his red eyes shined upon Claire's dead white face.
Suddenly Claire froze, could this be it? Could this bastard that I've hated for so long actually be my ticket to finding Steve...? Claire wasn't sure, but she was sure as hell gonna find out.
