~*~Chapter 4- Rebecca Vs. Carlos in Court~*~

( I wake once more finding myself at home....and clean. I sit up slowly as Jill enters my room with a trey with breakfast on it. I smile softly to Jill who smiles back at me as she sets the trey softly on my lap. I look at Jill as she sits down. )

"I cleaned your wounds with Claire's help if thats what you're wondering." Jill said softly.

"Yeah thats one thing I was wondering about." I say

"Chris is furious with Carlos and talked with me. We have decided to discharge Carlos and bring him to court. Chris says it would be best." Jill says looking at me.

"Ok." I say quietly but can't help but worry

( I lived all my life sheltered by my mom and my friends. But even now as I sit here and think, perhaps this is the best way to get Carlos off my back once and for all. I refuse to run. I refuse to let Carlos rule my life, I once wasn't afraid of 'Controling pigs'. Once I finish my breakfast I hand the trey back to Jill who takes it and holds it.)

"When do we go to court?" I ask Jill

"Tomorrow morning. Chris said the sooner the better and I suppose he's right. The faster we get this done the sooner our lives will return to normal." Jill answered

"Where's Billy?" I said quietly and embarassed

"Well.....Chris wants him to join S.T.A.R.S. Can't say I don't blame him can't find many former Marine Second Lieutenant thats nice like him. I believe Chris wants to put you two as Partners." Jill said to me smiling

"Thats the best news I've heard." I say also smiling.

"Well I better go downstairs before Chris sends a search party to find me. Get some more rest for tomorrow Becca, you'll need it" Jill said to me before walking out my room door closing it softly.

( I lay back on my bed sighing softly as I look up at the ceiling letting some tears fall softly down my cheeks. Finally I will be free of this. 'Finally' I thought as I fell into another deep slumber. But I didn't hear Billy come in and sitting down by my bedside where Jill was sitting at looking down at me. )

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

( Chris, Jill, Barry, Leon, Claire, Sherry and Billy was sitting behind me in the Court House. I kept my head up high since I made that promise to myself last night. We all stand when the Judge walks from his office to his seat. )

"You may sit" Judge said

( Everyone in the courtroom sat down looking at the Judge. )

"Mr. Masters please start with your opening comments." Judge said

( Carlos' Lawyer stood up beside him and looked at everyone before saying anything )

"Your honor and people of the jury. These people threatened and actually beat up my client just for wanting to speak with his girlfriend. Their counter suit against my client is serious at the least. But we will prove that soon enough" Mr. Masters said with a smirk as he sat down.

( My lawyer, Mrs. Johnson stood up from my side and walked to the jury smiling softly at them. )

"Some things were said and done by my Client's friends. What they did was wrong but throughout this hearing, you will be told the reason why they did them. There are reasons why Rebecca Chambers ran from Mr. Oliveira and I'm sure most of you agree that had you been in my client's position, you would have done the same." Mrs. Johnson smiled softly once more before taking her place beside me once more.

"Mrs. Johnson, please call up your first witness." Judge said

"I call upon Claire Redfield, your honor." Dawn (Mrs. Johnson) said

( Claire stood and walked to the stand she swore to tell the truth before sitting down. I look at Claire who looked back at me winking before looking at Dawn smiling polietly to the older woman. )

"Miss. Redfield, What happened yesterday after dinner?" Dawn asked Claire

"Me, Rebecca and Sherry went to the mall to shop." Claire said

"What happened after you finished your shopping Miss. Redfield?" Dawn asked

"Call me Claire please....Well...when we came out from Hello Kitty we saw Carlos walking our way. I told him to get to the point before I knock his lights out." Claire said

"Alright Claire. Why did you say such a thing?" Dawn asked

"I don't like the guy and he always flurts with other women at work. I mean come on now he's a controling pig. And I don't want my best friend getting hurt because of him" Claire said a bit angry

"Umm...Ok. What happened after that." Dawn asked kinda scared of Claire's mood

"He sent two jerks to block me and Sherry from running after Rebecca so I taught them a lesson about that and ran outside just in time with Sherry to see Mr. Coen beat Carlos up." Claire smirk at that.

"Can you point out Mr. Coen for the jury Claire?" Dawn asked

"Sure. He's right there." Claire said as she points to Billy behind Becca.

"How long have you known Mr. Oliveira, Claire?" Dawn asked

"Umm....Let me think on that one....about 2-3 years now." Claire said a thoughtful look on her face

"Did you ever see Mr. Oliveira hurt Miss. Chambers before?" Dawn asked afraid what the answer might be

"Yes, I have." Claire said

"No further questions your honor" Dawn said as she sits down beside me taking note how furious Billy, Chris and the S.T.A.R.S. Members.

'I don't blame them. It was a shock to me mostly' I thought sadly

"Mr. Masters your witness" Judge said

( From the corner of my eye I see Mr. Masters stand and walk to Claire who has this glint in her eyes. )

"Is it alright if I call you Claire?" David (Mr. Masters) asked

"Yeah, I guess" Claire said looking at David with suspicion in her dark blue eyes.

"When did you ever see my client hurt Miss. Chambers, Claire?" David asked

"I was walking back to the S.T.A.R.S. Office and heard a small cry. Of course I went to check it out and saw Carlos punch Rebecca in her chest which made me furious and still does." Claire said now with anger in her eyes once more.

( I stopped listening to David once Claire said that. I never did like that guy anyway. I watch as Claire step down from the stand glaring at Carlos as she does so. I look up and see Billy now walking to the stand swearing to tell the truth....Good luck Billy as I 'tune' back in just to hear what Billy have to say. )

"How long have you known my client Mr. Coen?" David asked

"I didn't and I don't want to" Billy said looking at David to Carlos then back to David once more with his icy blue eyes.

"Would you like if someone came to you and beat you up Mr. Coen?" David asked

"No" Billy said

"Why did you beat up my client, Mr. Coen?" David asked

"Because he was hurting Rebecca" Billy said calmly as possible

"How long have you known Miss. Chambers?" David asked

"About a week and a half" Billy said knowing where this was going

"And now you just show up in her life when my client ask her out. Where have you been all this time?" David asked

"Working my tail off to get money to move here" Billy said

"Who did you work for?" David asked

'Oh crap.....He knows...That jerk knows about Billy's past!' I thought

"I was a former Marine Second Lieutenant" Billy said

"I have no further questions" David said as he walked back to Carlos and sat down

"Mr. Coen...You would do anything for Miss. Chambers right...I mean protect her." Dawn asked Billy as she walked to him

"Yes and call me Billy" Billy said his voice calmer now

"When you found out that Miss. Chambers was taken what did you do?" Dawn asked and nodded

"I went after her by myself" Billy said

"Why didn't you want any help Billy?" Dawn asked

"I thought it would be best if I went after her myself then to endanger anyone else" Billy said

"That would be wise. Are you in love with my client Billy?" Dawn asked

"Yes" Billy said as he looked at me and I smile softly to him before he looked back at Dawn

"I have no further questions, your honor" Dawn said

( Billy walked back to his seat but touched my shoulder softly when he sat down. )

"I would like to call Christopher Redfield to the stand" Dawn said

( I watch as Chris stand and walk to the stand swearing before he sat down )

"Do you think of Rebecca as a younger sister, Mr. Redfield?" Dawn asked

"Yes and call me Chris please" Chris said. Dawn nodded to call him Chris

"Why is that Chris?" Dawn asked

"She doesn't have any family left....plus when she joined S.T.A.R.S. we're like family...sad to say we're all we got." Chris said

"Who's we?" Dawn asked

"Me, Jill, Claire, Leon, Sherry, Barry and his family....Carlos...at the time" Chris said

"Where does Billy fit into all of this?" Dawn asked

"He saved Rebecca's life 2 years ago" Chris said

"Is this the first time you met Billy?" Dawn asked

"Yes" Chris said

"Was the first visit pleasent?" Dawn asked

"No because Rebecca came home hurt" Chris said

"Did Billy seem mad to you?" Dawn asked

"From what I noticed he kept his anger in well" Chris said

"When the Officers came to your house that night what happened?" Dawn asked

"Rebecca turned really pale when Officer Shore said Carlos was Rebecca's Girlfriend. Rebecca then cried out that she wasn't and Billy jumped to her defense." Chris said

"What did Billy say?" Dawn asked

"He said that Leave her alone she's been through enough already" Chris said with his very good memory

"Did the Officers say anything to Billy and if they did what was it?" Dawn asked

"Yes, One of the Officers said and I quote 'Mr. Coen you assulted Mr. Oliveira at a Mall. We should arrest you for that'" Chris said

"Did Billy say anything back?" Dawn asked

"Yeah he said and again I quote 'Well Officer did this Mr. Oliveira tell you that he pulled Miss. Chambers roughly against a wall then flung her away when I was the only person came to help her? You need to get your facts straight BEFORE you try and arrest me'" Chris said

"Is that when you jumped in?" Dawn asked

"Yeah I told them to get out of my house before I arrest them for making accusions towards Billy." Chris said

"No further questions" Dawn said before sitting down

( David stood walking to Chris. I noticed that Chris was glaring at David silently saying that 'What do you want' something like that. I laugh mentally since David looked scared of Chris who's really sweet. )

"What did you want to do to my client once you heard the news when your sister came home?" David asked

"I wanted to send him to hell for all the crap he pulled" Chris said angry as he now glared at Carlos

"What is your rank in S.T.A.R.S.?" David asked

"Leader" Chris said now looking at David

"Do you have a partner?" David asked

"Jill Valentine" Chris said daring him to say something about Jill

"Is it a business relationship?" David asked

'He dug his own grave' I thought bitterly

"She's my girlfriend" Chris said annoyed

( Sad to say I 'tune' back out. I hate to see Chris this way. A little while later Chris was still glaring coldly at David as he walked to Jill taking her hand softly in his once more.)

"I call Rebecca Chambers to the stand" David said

( I stand from my chair then walked to the stand swearing to tell the truth before sitting down looking at everyone who has their eyes on me now. I look at David with my blue eyes thats somewhat like Billy's but lighter and more friendly next to his icy blue. Which I do love about his eyes. Unfourtally I had to 'tune' back in to answer his questions.)

"Did my client hurt you after those two times?" David asked

"Yes....He backhanded me at that cabin" I said as I hear Billy growl low in his throat

"Did he do anything else?" David asked

"Yes...." I said quietly still afraid

"What did he do?" David asked clueless

"He...almost raped me and told me if I ever said something then he would not only rape me and hurt me but kill me since I keep saying no" I said as tears come down my pale cheeks remembering that day clearly.

~*~Beginning of Rebecca's Flashback~*~

( I was in the copy room in New RPD coping something about a case when I heard the door open and close thinking it was Claire I continued my work....Until I felt someone...no.....some man touch my breasts, I gasp in shock then cried out in pain as he flung me on the couch in the room. I finally look up and saw Carlos walking to me slowly. )

"Leave me alone please!" I cried out

"Tsk tsk tsk Becca" Carlos said darkly as he climbed on top of me

"No!" I cried trying to get him off of me but failing terribly

( I continue my struggle as he put my arms above my head holding me with one hand as he used his other to touch me. I cried out then kick him hard making him get off me, I run to the other side of the room watching him closly.)

"You will be mine Rebecca. And if you tell anyone this not only will I rape you I will kill you." Carlos said before walking out of the room

( I ran and locked the door before falling to my knees crying my heart out never wanting to expierence that again...)

~*~End of Rebecca's Flashback~*~

( I look at Billy tears still coming down my cheeks. I can see the anger and hurt in his eyes. I wish this was all over....I wish they would just send that jerk Carlos in jail for the rest of his life. I want so badly to be in Billy's arms right now since I know he won't do anything to me in the first place. I look at David since he remained quiet and he walked back to his seat shaking his head at the turn of events. I then look at Carlos who looks angry at me and I could have sworn that I saw in his eyes that he wanted my blood. I look back at Billy quickly just to get that look out of my brain.)

"I would like to talk to Miss. Chambers alone in my office." Judge said

( I look up at the Judge and nod before following him into his Office and taking a seat when he gestered to it )

"Rebecca how old are you?" Judge said

"I'm 20 years old sir" I said quietly but loud enough for him to hear me

"When did that event take place?" Judge asked me

"Last year around this time sir" I said

"Rebecca did you tell your boss?" He asked me

"No sir...If I did then Chris would probally have killed him sir" I said looking down at my small hands

"True, I know Chris Redfield well. Since he came into my courtroom several times for different reasons. But you know Rebecca it seems to me that you want to be free of all of this" Judge said to me

"I do sir...I don't want to keep living my life in fear" I said

"I don't blame you. You are far to young to be going through this and I noticed how you keep your eyes mainly on Mr. Coen. I can tell that you feel a lot safer with him than you do with Carlos...Am I correct?" Judge asked me as he sat back in his chair

"Yes sir, I do feel safe with Billy" I said feeling a bit better and calmer

"Chris talked to me about Mr. Coen's past and well...I don't believe it either. I believe its time to go back in there to tell them my decesion" Judge said as he stands up and walks to me as I stand as well

"Yes sir" I said

"No need to worry anymore Rebecca trust me...I was starting to get that feeling anyway." Judge walked out of his Office and I followed him walking back to my seat next to Dawn as he took his place

"Thinking about this has troubled me greatly. Carlos Oliveira I'm sentesing you to life in jail for assulting an Officer, Stripping you of your badge and gun, threatening and attempt of rape on Miss. Chambers.Court dismissed." Judge said as he slammed that wooden mallet of his on his desk before getting up and walking back in his office

( I stand and turn around hugging Billy's neck happy. I buried my face softly in his neck not wanting to see Carlos anymore. I feel the others hug me as well happy. I look up at them smiling softly. )

"Let's go home" I said

( Everyone agrees with me as Billy holds my small hand walking out of the courtroom and down the stairs to Chris' Jeep and driving off leaving this nightmare behind for good. )

~*~There's the 4th Chapter. I have no idea where this chapter was going. And I don't watch Court tv either. I'll get the next Chapter out soon which you would prob like better than this chapter anyway. Thanks for reading~*~
