A/N: Hey, I'm back with the REAL chapter 5! YAY! I'm so very sorry it took me so long to get this up. Well, this is my first update for the new year. I wanted to post this chapter for Christmas, but my internet was down so I had to wait. _ Well, I hope you all had a nice time during the holidays. Did anyone get as drunk as I did on new years? ^-^ LOL! Well anyway, without further delay, here's the real chapter 5. Enjoy.
Oh, and I don't own Resident Evil.
The next morning Chris had to shake Claire for about 10 minutes to wake her up. Claire slowly opened her eyes and looked at Chris groggily.
"Good morning sis. That stuff Lu gave you last night is pretty strong. I just spent the last 10 minutes trying
to wake you up." Chris said.
Claire sat up and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes.
"What time is it, Chris?" Claire asked.
"10:30. Me and Lu have been up for a while now, but you looked so peaceful for the first time in six months, that I wanted to let you sleep a little while longer." Chris said.
Claire smiled.
"Thanks Chris." Claire said.
Chris nodded and turned to leave.
"No problem. Go take a quick shower, get dressed and come have some breakfast." Chris said.
Claire nodded. She waited until Chris left the room and got out of bed. She grabbed her towel and a change
of clothes and headed to the bathroom. Her thoughts drifted to her dream from the night before.
~I know it was just a dream but, what if Aly's a real living girl? What was she doing at the Ashford mansion? Does she know about the viruses? It certainly would explain how she knew about the hunter and zombies, but more importantly, is she still alive somewhere in that god awful mansion?~
Claire reached the bathroom and prepared the tub for her usage. She felt the temperature of the water and sighed.
~Maybe I should tell Chris and Luis about that dream. Damn, this is going to be a long and tiring day.~
She got in the tub and closed her eyes as the warm heated her cold sweat filled skin.
Downstairs, Chris and Luis were already eating. Chris sighed and looked at Luis questioningly.
"Are you sure about this, Lu? I don't really don't want Claire going back to Rockfort. Hell, I don't want to go back there myself."
Luis nodded.
"It's really the only way, Chris. If there wasn't any unfinished business to take of at Rockfort, then Claire wouldn't be having all those nightmares and visions."
Needless to say, Chris was shocked. The sound of the phone ringing snapped him back to attention.
"I think you'd better get that, Chris."
Chris nodded and got up. He sighed and picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Chris? It's Barry. We've got trouble man!"
"What do mean? What kind of trouble?"
"Remember that island where Claire was taken to six months ago?
"Yeah."
"Well, we still don't know the whole story, but something's going on there. Claire's friend Leon apparently found a secret file about a new experiment being conducted there."
"What kind of experiment?"
"There's actually two of them, but the one that's supposedly complete is called 'Project A 1'."
"'Project A 1'? What about the other?"
"We don't know. The file didn't really give much information. It only said that it would be far superior to the T-Veronica virus."
"Worse than the T-Veronica?! What the hell is that crazed company up to this time?! Haven't those assholes caused enough destruction and grief already?!"
Barry sighed.
"I guess not."
"Damn, now I have another reason to go back to that shithole."
"You knew about this already?"
"No. Claire's been having nightmares and illusions ever since we escaped. Lu said it was because there's still unfinished business there. Man, he was right."
"Lu's there? How long ago did he arrive?"
"Yesterday afternoon. He's coming with us."
"Great! We need all the help we can get. I just hope it's not too late to put a stop to this."
"Me too, Barry. Me too."
"When are you leaving?"
"As soon as Claire's dressed and ready."
"Alright. Contact me as soon as you get there so I can direct you to our new hideout."
"Will do. I'll see you soon, Barry. Say hi to the others for me."
"You got it."
"Thanks man."
No problem. See ya soon."
"Count on it."
Chris hung up and turned to Luis.
"You were right Lu. There is something going on at Rockfort."
Luis sighed and adjusted his glasses.
"I wouldn't tell you something like that just to fuck around with you, Chris. If I wasn't sure that trouble was in the air I wouldn't have said anything. You know that."
"Yeah, I know. I guess I was just kinda hoping you'd be wrong this time."
"Believe me. I was hoping so too."
Chris sighed and ran a hand through his spiky hair.
~I wonder if Claire's ready yet. Maybe I should go and check on her.~
As if on cue, Claire walked into the kitchen a few seconds later. She smiled at the two men at the table.
"So, when do we leave?"
"As soon as you're ready sis."
Claire nodded and sat down to eat the food that Chris had put out for her. Her unease growing all the while.
A/N: Ahh, the plot thickens. Sorry this chapter ended up being so short. But maybe now what I have in mind for this story can go smoothly now. I hope you all are enjoying this so far. Well, R/R. I sincerily hope to update again soon.
