-Next morning-
Claire arrived early to the station. She was very nervous and expectant. It was her lucky day. She longed for doing her first test. It couldn't that hard. Could it? She walked up to the double doors and entered the station. Something told her she was a bit too early. She stumbled over the threshold and fell to the floor. When she was about to raise a couple of feet was in front of her nose.
"You need help"? A friendly voice said. 'Too friendly' Claire thought. The man grabbed her arm and pulled her up. The man reached his hand out.
"I'm Barry Burton. You must be the new girl Wesker was talking about. Nice to meet you." Claire looked at his hand in suspiciousness. She considered whether she should bite him or not. She decided to grab his hand.
"I'm Claire Redfield", she said with an artificial smile.
"Oh. You must be Chris' little sister. Right?" He kept shaking her hand which she found extremely annoying.
"Yes. I am", Claire pulled her hand out. "Now if you excuse me. I must speak to Wesker about my tests." She walked on through the corridor.
"Good luck!" Barry called after her. Claire sighed. 'What a weird man.' She walked up to Wesker's office. She pulled the door open as no one seemed to be in the room. She put her jacket in the chair she had been sitting in the day before. Since Wesker wasn't there, she thought of to get to know the other members a bit more. She left the room and knocked the door of the first office she could find. The door opened and a woman stood in the opening.
"I'm sorry if I'm interrupting", Claire said embarrassed. "But I just went by to see if you had some time to talk to me." She then smiled hesitating.
"Of course I have", The woman responded. "I'm Jill Valentine. I have seen you here before." Claire walked into her office.
"I know. I'm trying to become a member just like you. But I'm afraid I'm gonna screw up." Jill laughed at her. It sounded like a suffering pig.
"You don't have to worry about that honey", she said. "Only a couple of weeks ago we got a new member. Rebecca Chambers. She's a medic and is not too smart. Even she made it." Claire raised her eyebrows as someone knocked the door.
"Come in!" Jill yelled. The door opened and Chris Redfield stepped into the office. His nostrils flapped irritated as he stared at Claire.
"So. There you are", he said angrily.
"Oh. Hi Chris", Jill said. He ignored her.
"You forgot about the cat. Didn't you!" Chris was upset and his nostrils started to flap even more.
"What cat?" Claire asked in surprise. Chris' face turned red as he strained not to faint of anger.
"Our cat. The little innocent object that live in our apartment. We used to call it Poo. Remember?!"
"We have a cat?" Claire asked even more surprised. Chris jumped around in the room to get rid of his anger.
"HAD!" he yelled. "YOU forgot to feed it this morning!" Claire still looked confused. "Don't you remember anything? You know that time we held it into the toilet and flushed and we laughed, remember?" Claire stood up.
"Oh. I remember now...I'm sorry Chris. I must have forgot about it. She was so little and insignificant." She hugged her brother.
"Group hug!" Jill yelled and hugged them both.
"She was my best friend", Chris sobbed. Claire and Jill stared at him.
"Get a life Chris!" Claire noticed Wesker passing the room. "I must go. Thanks for the talk Jill," she waved her hand and ran out of the office.
"Wesker!" She called and run up beside him. "I'm here now."
"I can see that", he said as he walked on. He stepped into his office and Claire followed him. He sat down into his chair and Claire in the one opposite of it. He looked her deep into the eyes.
"You will do your first test today", he said seriously and picked a paper up. Claire thought he made it sound so hard to do the test so she decided to bright the atmosphere up a bit.
"This is a very nice chair. Where did you buy it?" Wesker stared at her like if she was a complete idiot.
"Well....Uhm. Let's talk about the test." Claire looked up at him.
"Oh. Okay."
"The first test isn't very hard. It's just a paper you'll have to fill in the questions," He gave her the paper. Claire stared at it as if it was going to explode in her face.
"I'll just answer the questions then..." Wesker didn't move he just sat in his chair. Claire started to wonder if he was awake or not. She decided to take a look at the paper. The first question-
1 'What is your name?' Claire wrote her name on the line under the question.
2 'How old are you?' Claire wrote down her age and read the next question.
3 'What is your experiences of zombies and other monsters?' Claire thought for a while. 'I've seen them in movies' she thought and wrote it down. 'And the best way to kill them is definitely to use garlic.' The final question-
4 'What is your favourite colour?' Claire hesitated. 'This is a hard test after all' she thought. 'What am I gonna answer?' She picked black. She then looked up at Wesker.
"Uhm...I've finished the test."
"Good. He eyed the paper. You can take a break...Or whatever you like."
"Thank you Wesker!" she said and stood up.
"You shall call me Captain", he said not so irritated as yesterday. Claire nodded and opened the door. When she came out into the corridor a man was standing with his back to her.
"Excuse me..."
"Ah!" The man turned around. "Don't ever do that again." Claire stared at him.
"I'm sorry. I'm sure we haven't met before..." Claire said.
"Oh. You're right. I'm Brad Vickers."
"Claire Redfield", Claire said and smiled.
"Oh. You're Chris' sister. He never talks about you."
"I'm glad not. See you later." She passed him by and walked over to another door. A sign was hanging on the outside of it. It read: 'Do not disturb.' She knocked anyway. The sound of something hitting the floor and fall apart reached her ears. Someone swore in there. Then the door opened. A Girl in her age was staring at her. Her face was covered with dirt, probably because of some experiments. Claire cleared her throat.
"Sorry to disturb you, but...." The girl yawned and stared at her with a bored look upon her face. "I'm new here and I was wondering if you could show me what you're doing." Claire tried to look behind the girl's shoulders.
"You want to see what I'm doing?" She asked exited. "I'm trying to make more useful medicines and right now I'm mixing some herbs up." Claire didn't know what to say.
"Oh", she answered.
"By the way. My name is Rebecca. Rebecca Chambers."
"I'm Claire Redfield." Rebecca opened her mouth to say something. "Yes. I'm Chris' little sister." Rebecca stared at her.
"How did you know I was going to ask that?"
"I'd just know", Rebecca showed her into her lab-like office.
"This is a blue and green herbs mix", Rebecca explained exited. "What do you think. What do you think the others will think?" Claire took a closer look at the herbs.
"Uhm...It's a herb....A beautiful herb... People will come to look at it and they will say.....It's a herb..." Claire hesitated. Rebecca watched her for a while.
"Hmm. Maybe I should keep working on it..."
"Well. I don't know", I should go back to do my second test now", she went outside the door. Jill came out from her office.
"Claire. Will you help me?" Claire walked up to her.
"Sure. With what?" Jill turned around.
"I bought this yesterday. It's an apron. Will you help me tie the strings?"
"Okay", Claire said. "My mother had one."
"Okay," Jill said.
"There were ducks and hens embroidered on it", she announced helpfully.
Suddenly they heard a voice coming from a nearby loudspeaker on the wall.
"Claire Redfield. Please help yourself to my office," it was Wesker.
"I hope the next test isn't too hard", she said and hurried down to his office. Jill waved her hand as Claire ran away.
