A/N: Woohooo! Thanks for reviewing people, you have made my day! And don't
worry I know what I'm doing (about RE CVX). And yes you will be seeing
Chris don't worry, and probably most of the RE crew, but it'll take me a
while to get there so be patient! This chapter has some swearing so just to
warn ya.
Oh by the way.I used some references from RE itself like the epilogues if
you ever got them.If you didn't get the epilogues after RE3 then check em
out from a website or something and you'll see where I used them. Anyways
on with the story.
AT A BASE SOMEWHERE IN THE DEEP FORESTS OF MINNESOTA:
Leon Scott Kennedy is confronted with a man who claims to be a US government agent.
"Leave Sherry alone. She's innocent."
"She knows too much," the man replies. He looks at Leon and says, "But you have good value. This is a good deal Kennedy. Make your choice."
Without regret or hesitation Leon closes his eyes and then sharply responds. "Do you actually believe that I would ever agree to such an assignment!"
The govt. agent gave an evil smile and said, "if you want us to leave your innocent Sherry alone then I suggest you follow our orders. These Redfields are now a threat to our country's national security and must be disposed of. Find their whereabouts and report to us and we will take it from there."
Leon was now furious, "what the hell is wrong with you people?! Where is the democracy in all this?!"
"Heh, the country's reputation is more important than 2 trouble makers." Growled the agent.
"You're all insane. Claire only wants to find her brother, nothing more, so leave her out of this!" said Leon more forcefully.
"Like brother like sister. She knows too much and will surely cause problems. I am not here to argue with you Kennedy because I am afraid you have no choice in the matter either. You also know too much for us to just let you go a freeman. We cannot find the Redfields without your cooperation..Claire trusts you I'm sure and you can contact her easily. Remember Sherry's safety AND yours depends on your cooperation. So...are you willing to cooperate Mr. Kennedy?"
Leon closed his eyes tight and shook his head slowly.
I can't believe this is happening. They can't do this to me, I could never betray Claire like this! Not after all we've been through...oh man, Leon, THINK! There has got to be another way out of this.
Leon's thoughts were cut short as two strong men dressed in army clothes dragged Sherry by the arms into the room. Leon stood in alarm. "What..what are you doing?"
"LEON!!" Sherry screamed as the soldier pulled out an army knife and stuck it against Sherry's smooth white neck.
"What the fuck is this?! STOP!!" Leon ran at the soldier but the agent pulled out a gun to his head.
"So what'll it be Kennedy? The U.S army is not something a wise man messes with."
Leon was now almost in tears. The pressure was too much for anyone to handle, and he'd never thought going to Raccoon City as a young, rookie cop would end up like this. Finally he looked at the floor and gave his final answer in dismay.
"F...Fine. I'll help you locate Chris and...Claire."
The agent put his gun down and motioned for the soldier to take the knife away from Sherry's throat. The two men let go of Sherry and she ran to Leon and hugged him tight. She started crying uncontrollably on his shoulder.
"I'm so...sorry.sniff.Leon! Tell Claire I didn't mean for this to happen!" Leon stroked her fine blonde hair and whispered to her that everything will be fine in the end. Trying to reassure him self also, but deep down, he knew this was a tough mess to get out of.
LATER THAT NIGHT IN A PRISON CELL IN AN UNKNOWN BASE:
Leon lay on his bed thinking of the mess he was now in. If he tried running away from this so called mission, then Sherry would have to pay the price dearly and he wasn't about to risk that. The poor girl has been through enough already. But then if he does go ahead with the mission then Claire would be locked up forever or even killed. God forbid, he knew how bad jails were in America. He couldn't even bare to think of the young beautiful Claire being locked in a tiny cell, all cold and thin surrounded by massive criminal, lesbian females. He shudders at the thought. No one deserved that, especially Claire who was so full of life and determination. Her light will slowly fade in that forsaken place.
God if I ever had to hand Claire in to those monsters that call themselves the "army" then I'll have to shoot myself after!
It is true he didn't know Claire for that long, but he could never hurt or betray her like this. After all he had promised to always protect her and Sherry. "Oh man I wish someone would just kill me and get it over with." He said a little louder than he had meant.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of his prisons bars and said, "Would you like me to kill you?" The way he said it was somewhat mocking and cold. Leon squinted his eyes to see better in the darkness but could only make out the mans form.
"Umm well, yeah that would be doing me a huge favor, thanks." Leon replied sarcastically.
The man then opened the prison cell and walked in. The moonlight made his features more clear and Leon could see that he had short blonde hair and dark sunglasses. "You're Leon Kennedy, am I correct?"
"Yeah, how'd you know that?" Leon asked him suspiciously. The agent had promised him that only he and two other men would know of his presence and this was not one of the two men. He could have sworn he had seen this man somewhere but had no idea where or how.
"You know I can help you out of this mess." He said quietly.
"Excuse me? Who are you anyway?" The suspense of who the man might be was killing him now.
"Consider me to be..a friend." To Leon the man did not sound very friendly. In fact he sounded downright freaky.
"You're not from the army are you?"
"Leon, Leon, Leon," said the man shaking his head, "you ask too many questions. Like I said, I WILL help you out of this mess IF..."
"If? If what?" Leon asked, eager to find out what miracle could get him out of his mess.
"If you help me get Chris Redfield."
"What? What do you want from him??"
"He's an old friend, and we have some...unfinished business together."
"How do I know I could trust you?" Leon asked, eying him suspiciously.
"Well you're going to have to take that chance now won't you. Either you help me help you by telling me where Chris Redfield is, and then your Claire would be safe and sound. Or you refuse my kind proposal and be forced to hand in both Claire and Chris, meaning they will both surely either be locked up for life and tortured, or simply killed."
"You make it sound so simple," Leon chuckled bitterly, "well what about Sherry?"
"Do not worry. I already have that under control. Sherry will be placed in....safe hands." The man watched Leon frown in deep thought. "Make your choice Kennedy. It's now or never."
A/N: pheww, 2nd chapter is finished! Look out for the next chapter to see what happens to Claire after she runs off. I'm sure you all know who that mysterious visitor was right? Muahahaha. Anyways R+R please coz I love hearing your opinions! Even if you criticize, is all good. Also I should be finishing a Claire and Leon shrine soon which is another thing to look forward to, so if you want the link then send me an email and I'll email it to all of you once I'm done. P.S. I don't own Claire, Leon or Sherry yadi yadi yada, they are property of capcom so don't sue me^_^
