Everything was dark, everything was quiet, everything was.....terrible. It felt like a nightmare and the dark in the room didn't help. The only light came from the half open door and voices could be heard outside. The whole police station was a complete mess, the ceiling had apparently collapsed in many places. Not a lot of people had came for their help, in fact, no one really knew what had happened. There was this sudden storm outside and then everything had gone back to normal again.
Rebecca sighed. It was warm in the room, too warm. But it was safe here and the ceiling was okay. Her eyes had recently got used to the dark and she could discern the window now, it was pretty dark outside and the tree branches scratched against the glass. Her heart had still not calmed down, cause she was still afraid, afraid that her captain wouldn't make it. The young girl remembered the conversation she had with Forest and Jill just a few hours ago. No one of the S.T.A.R.S had left the station yet, everyone tried to clean up and help as much as possible.
-Flashback five hours ago-
"Calm down Becky, you're a medic, you know what to do, right?" Forest had asked as Chris and Barry had taken care of Wesker's lifeless body. They'd taken him to the medical room for a rest, where Rebecca who was their only medic there now, could check up on him.
"I know, I know....He's gonna be okay", she sobbed, wiping away some tears from her cheeks. Jill had put her arm around Rebecca's shoulders, comforting her. No one of the others knew about her feelings for the captain and therefor they just thought the whole incident had just upset her a bit.
"Why don't you rest, you seem to need it", Jill put her head at the right, smiling weakly at the medic as she let go of her shoulders. Rebecca nodded and Forest sighed.
"Man, what was that thing?" he looked up into the ceiling as if he expected it to collapse right now. Jill just looked down at the floor and then at Rebecca. The young girl had started to sob again....'what if...what if he wouldn't make it?' she thought. She then took a deep breath.
"Jill....I'll go and check on him now, I don't need to rest", she stared at the woman as if she waited for her permission.
"Are you sure...? Maybe you should...." But Rebecca had already started to walk down the dark corridor, her arms crossed over her chest. The light was out and no electricity was available. It made it very cold in the almost empty police department. Her two teammates watch her as she disappeared around a corner.
-End of flashback-
Rebecca sighed, she could feel the sweat building up between hers and Wesker's hand. She closed her eyes, the only thing she wanted was Wesker to wake up and everything would be okay, but that would be too good to be true.
She was interrupted in her thoughts when someone knocked at the door. It was pulled open slowly and light began to stream into the room. The contours of the person told Rebecca it was Jill.
"Can I come in?" she sounded like she was afraid that Rebecca would yell at her to go away, but then walked into the room, hesitating a bit.
"Of course", The young medic replied and tried to give the other one a smile. In the light, Jill could see Wesker lying on the couch with his eyes tightly shut and a few scratch marks in his face. His sunglasses were placed on the little white table next to the couch and bandage had been tied over his chest. A pool of blood was soaked into it, but thanks to Rebecca, he would probably be all right. Jill sat down in a nearby chair without looking up at the medic. Rebecca still squeezed Wesker's cold hand, but she now looked over to the other woman.
"Jill....are you okay?" she asked carefully. The question seemed to wake Jill up from her own thoughts as she looked up confused.
"Huh? Oh...yeah, I guess so? Are you?" Rebecca hesitated for a while, not knowing what she felt anymore.
"I'll be fine....I hope....But something is bothering you Jill, I can see that." Jill avoided the girl's eyes and they traveled away to Wesker on the couch.
"I....I......" she sighed. "I was just thinking, what if, you know, the ceiling just above Chris' desk fell down before, what if he'd been there then......" her eyes were empty as she stared into the wall.
"Yes, but he wasn't", she gave a smile when Jill looked at her. "I know you like him, you're lucky Jill." Jill smiled back at her, then it faded away as fast as it had appeared.
"I will go and make some tea, and I'm sure the others want to know how Wesker is then....so, do you want anything?" she stood up, reaching for the doorknob.
"No...thank you..." Rebecca smiled at her. Without replying, Jill went out the door, closing it behind her. She made her way down the corridor. On the way to the kitchen, she met many of her teammates, they all seemed confused and upset. She couldn't help but smile when she thought of how lucky she was that everyone were okay, especially Chris, and that Wesker would be all right, no matter how mean he could be.
As she touched the knob to the kitchen door, a scream that made everyone nearby to turn around and look down the corridor, could be heard. It came from the medical room. Jill looked at Brad and Barry who were standing nearby. They then heard Rebecca's voice.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
