Claire hurried into Wesker's office. He looked up at her.
"So. Did I make it? The test?" Claire panted.
"Hm. I haven't decided that yet. But I was going to tell you that you could take the rest of the day off if you like to. I have a lot of work to do and I need to prepare for your second test. Claire sighed relieved.
"Should I come back tomorrow then?" she asked.
"Yes." Claire walked out of the room. "But you have to be here early." Claire sighed for herself sticking her tongue out at him when he didn't looked up. The smell of burned sausage reached her nose. She followed it to Jill's office. She opened the door and smoke floated out into the corridor. In the cloud she could see Jill and Chris sitting around the little table in the middle of the room. Jill was eating a sausage on a stick. Claire tried to wave away some of the smoke as she stepped into the room.
"What are you doing?" She coughed. Jill walked over to a little cooker on her desk and put some sausages on a dish.
"I'm cooking," She coughed back to Claire. Claire walked over to the window and opened it. Chris looked unhappy where he sat in a chair by the table. Jill looked at him.
"Come on Chris. Take one", she said and held the dish in front of his nose.
"I'm getting gases of sausage", he said. He contemplated this for a while and then he took five. Suddenly someone opened the door. It was Barry.
"What the hell are you doing in here?" he asked and held his nose.
"Don't look at me. I'd just got here." Claire tried to look innocent. So did Jill and Chris.
"Uhm...Wesker wants us to come to his office for a meeting." The three of them followed Barry out.
"Should I come with you. I mean, I have this day off." Jill nodded in malicious pleasure. They all entered the office. Everyone was there, Brad, Rebecca, herself and the others. Wesker stood up.
"Welcome. I wanted you here today cause you're all going to be part of Claire's next test tomorrow." Everyone groans and stares at her. Claire looks at her feet. "Anyway. I can't reveal anything yet. It's a bit secret", he said and laughed evilly. Everyone laughed ingratiating and tried to figure out what the point was. "Now. Get out of my private office," he snarled. Everyone hurried away.
- Later at night-
Claire had been spending all day at the police department. She was now thinking of going home. She put her jacket on and waved goodbye to everyone. When she came outside she walked up to the wrought-iron gate of the iron fence that surrounded the station. She tried to open it but remembered that it was always locked after the sunset. It made everyone have to climb over it. When she finally succeeded to get over to the other side someone walked up to her. It was a man. Claire tried to remember the things she learned at the self-defence-class she went on every Sunday. The man reached his hand out.
"Hi!" he said waiting for Claire to take his hand. Claire stared at him suspicious. She didn't take his hand.
"Hi?" She said.
"Hi", the man said again.
"Hi", Claire said.
"H...." The man started to think he wouldn't get anything out of this so he said:
"I'm Forest", he still reached his hand out. Claire considered her next move.
"Why should I believe you?" She asked and thought it was a very smart question. Forest didn't know what to say. He stared at his hand and then put it away.
"Uhm... "You're new here. Aren't you?"
"I have to go now", she said and walked away. "And I have a brick in my pocket!" She assured him. Forest stared after her with a surprised look upon his face. He then turned to the gate and unlocked it with his key.
