Nanakiyoda: I'm so sad...

Tealraptor: Why?

Nanakiyoda: I might not be able to go over to my friends house...

Tealraptor: Uh...okay...

Nanakiyoda: You wouldn't understand because you don't have friends...haha

Tealraptor: ...That wasn't nice...and here I was being nice to you...

Nanakiyoda: Uh...sorry?

Tealraptor: Nope. I refuse your apology.

Nanakiyoda: Then maybe this will make you change your mind.

SANOSUKE

I yelled as loud as I could. What in the hell are those things! Just before me was a huge, man-sized, spider. I shot it and it flipped over dead, its legs curled up. That wasn't bad...

"Don't relax now Rooster!" I heard Weasel yell from over my shoulder and the door behind me slam shut. What? They're leaving me to do this by myself! I shot another spider down from the ceiling. I can do this...I can do this...The first spider's stomach busted open with a dozen baby spiders. I haven't enough time to reload! I gotta run! I saw two people run from the other side of the hall to me. The closest one grabbed me up and ran to the room where the others were hiding while the second shot at the other spiders. My head hit the door way and I blacked out...

KAORU

After I shot the last spider, I quickly reloaded and looked around for any more. All that was there was the body of an unfortunate man who had been stuck to the wall by a spider web. I almost forgot that Jill told me there were spiders like these at the mansion. Well, it appears to be all clear so I better join Kenshin and that girl he saved. She screamed so loudly, we heard it from the other side of the tower. Slowly, I opened the door Kenshin had gone through and was tackled to the floor. Instinctively, I kicked the thing off and aimed the gun right at its head. I quickly put the gun down when I saw who it was.

"Misao! I'm so sorry! I thought you were a zombie!" I apologized quickly and gave her a hug. I almost shot my best friend! This whole incident is getting to me.

"Kaoru! You're alive! Are you okay? Did you get bitten?" I heard Misao cry out. I started to laugh at the whole situation as I looked around the room. Here I was getting choked by my best friend while surrounded by my friends and in the corner there was a military man who had obviously tried to protect the girl next to him, and both were dead. I backed off from the hug and smiled at Misao. She appeared to be fine. That's always a good thing.

"I'm fine Misao. Kenshin and I are both okay and haven't been bitten." I answered her questions and stood up, replaceing the .45 in the holster I had.

"Looks like the little tomboy is packing some heat." I heard Megumi muse. I smiled and nodded at her. If it weren't for the fact of the situation, I'd be angry but I can excuse this.

"Yeah...uh, Kenshin, Why are you holding a passed out Sanosuke?" I asked Kenshin who smiled at me. Where is that one girl he saved? The girl clearly had brown hair...neither Misao or Megumi have brown hair...wait...Sanosuke was the one who screamed? Haha.

"This one rescued him, that I did." Kenshin replied and shifted Sanosuke to the floor. I thought Sanosuke was a girl because he screamed like one...thats funny...

"Do you have any extra weapons Miss Kamiya?" Aoshi said. He was holding Soujiro up. Wait a second...Soujiro...he's been bitten. Jill said an hour and he doesn't look to good.

"Yes I do Shinomori but you might want to put Soujiro down and tell me how long ago it was when he was bitten." I said and pulled out the .45, aiming it at Soujiro. I'm sorry Soujiro...

"Wait Kaoru! Soujiro took the antidote! He's just weak from this immune system being put through overdrive to fight the virus!" Megumi yelled out and jumped in front of my aim. An antidote? Well, if that's what she says then I have no choice but to believe her, She's the one with the medical degree after all. I lowered the gun and nodded.

"So is everyone okay?" I asked. They all nodded, except Sanosuke, who was excused for his current condition. Placing the .45 back in the holster, I took off my back pack and removed the .357 and its ammo out of it. I then grabbed the chips and threw them to Megumi.

"What are these for?" She asked bluntly as I loaded the .357 and handed it to Shinomori. Well, I didn't say she was the smartest one in the group, just the one with the degree.

"Well, if Soujiro is recovering from the virus, he is going to need something to eat to help him heal faster. It's medical 101 isn't it?" I replied, mocking Megumi. She sneered at me.

"So, what are you guys doing here?" Misao asked, kneeling down to pick Soujiro up and help him eat. We don't have time for this...

"We must keep going. Miss Kaoru is in danger and we must leave this place." Kenshin said and recieved dumb looks from everyone. They think he is only focased on my safety...

"I have a monster called Nemesis after me. Katsu gave me a note to get out of here with on the notion that I am to take Umbrella down." I said, covering Kenshin's tracks. At the mention of Katsu's name, Sanosuke awoke and stood up straight. He looks worried...

"You guys saw Katsu? Where is he?" Sanosuke demanded, while Kenshin reloaded the shotgun for him. Oh no...Katsu...I have to tell Sanosuke what happened...

"I'm deeply sorry but Katsu is no longer. He passed away shortly after we saved him." Kenshin said solomly. Sanosuke just looked to the ground. I saw a tear fall to the ground. Just another loss of life...I'm definately takeing Umbrella down no matter the cost.

"Sanosuke, lets go. The quicker we leave the more of a chance we have of surviving. " I said and started to leave but was stopped by Kenshin. I turned to look at him and he shook his head. What? It's true...we need to leave now.

"We need to rest. I believe Sanosuke has something to do. If you do not mind, that is." Kenshin said. Right...everyone looks beat and it would be a good idea, but what about Nemesis?

"Alright. We'll rest in here, takeing turns as guards. I almost forgot I'm human in all this rush to survive that I've forgotten my needs." I said and sat down on the floor to relax.

KENSHIN

It was my turn as guard. Everyone was long asleep except for Sano, who was off to find Katsu's body and dispose of it. Amazing what a promise can do for you. Looking over at Miss Kaoru, who was curled up under a statue, I noticed she was cold. Its time to change shifts. Walking over, I nudged Misao awake. She yawned and smiled at me as I handed her my .45. As she stood up, I looked back to Miss Kaoru. It seems like years that she slept in my arms...back when gunshots were more common than the moans...

"She's been through a lot tonight hasn't she?" I heard Misao whisper to me. I turned back to her and nodded. Who hasn't? Many died today yet here she is, still fighting...

"I just hope it will all be over when we get out of here." I whispered back. Misao smiled and nodded, glancing over to Aoshi. She may seem childish, but Misao has been trying to make Aoshi see that she is no longer a child for quite some time now. I believe that if this horrible accident doesn't make him realize, nothing will.

"She looks cold...what is she wearing under that coat?" Misao asked me, whispering me back to reality. Uh...well...nothing too warm, just comfortable and easy to move in.

"A wife beater and khaki shorts I do believe." I answered. Misao shook her head. Kaoru did prepare herself well to survive rather than for comfort. That Jill woman that she knows must have told her a lot of useful information. I wonder if she is still alive? I've never really spoken with her or any of the S.T.A.R.S...

"Earth to Kenshin? Go over there and warm her up...sheesh...you're so blunt and dense sometimes..." I heard Misao hiss at me and I blushed. I'm not dense...I'm just polite. I nodded and walked over to her. She was the only one who wasn't cover with the extra clothing she had packed. She said that since she was the one who'd most likely get them all killed because Nemesis was chasing her, that they deserved to have some comfort while she dealt with the cold. She is always trying to help others that she often skips out on herself. Kneeling down beside her, I smiled at her. I almost fell back when she smiled back at me.

"Did I scare you?" She whispered out as I caught my breath. I nodded at her. She shook her head, as if to laugh at me. Forgot she's not a heavy sleeper.

"Miss Kaoru...you look uncomfortable." I replied. She nodded but looked away from me. Nemesis is really getting to her even though we've only seen it once.

"Don't worry about it. I'm fine. Are you okay though?" She asked me. From out of the corner of my eye, I saw Misao shake her head. So I'm not the only one who thinks Kaoru worries too less about herself. Well, she deserves better...

"Yes, but I am a little cold myself. Do you mind?" I asked Miss Kaoru. At first she seemed shocked but shook her head. So I sat against one of the statues and pulled her close to me. She yawned and fell asleep quickly. Closing my eyes, I relaxed completely, allowing myself to be taken to the realm of dreams.

OWARI

Nanakiyoda: Good enough for you?

Tealraptor: Yeah. Just one thing, I think you misspelled Kaoru's name in earlier chapters.

Nanakiyoda: Probably...sometimes my mind works faster than I can talk or type so I end up misspelling a lot. Anyways...next chapter has Sano, Katsu and Guess who else?

Tealraptor: Who?

Nanakiyoda: Banzai chibbi chan churroo!

Tearaptor: What! Thats not fair! Now I'll have to wait to find out!

BTW: For extreme RE fans, you may have noticed that this story doesn't follow all of the events or times as in the games or books. Keep in mind that this is a crossover, so to make it all match wouldn't do much good now would it? Besides that, I don't want to give away all the surprises and shocks because that's what RE is good for. So sorry if you don't like it but tough. Go play the games if you are that peeved about how the actual facts and this story don't coordinate.

BTW: Who should die next? Help me decide...
