Sorry I took so long to update. I've been busy with school and stuff. Enjoy!
Suddenly there was an explosion coming from up above.
"What was that?" Leon said changing the subject from Ada.
"Chris!" Claire shouted.
"Damn it! You have no idea how much I hate your brother." He turned her head looking at her. Claire was tired of these mind games Wesker was playing with them. She had her mind set on taking action. Secretly, she drew her knife and impaled him in the chest. Wesker dropped to his knees. Claire rightfully took her knife back and ran towards Leon. Leon stood shocked at how brave and determined she was to live.
Wesker's anger intensified instantly. He underestimated this girl. She was no ordinary defenseless girl; she was a Redfield. Blood was slowly dripping from his chest.
"You stupid bitch!"
"Claire look out!" Leon shouted.
When she turned around Wesker stood with the gun in his hand. He fired one bullet at Claire. It was soaring in the air straight towards her chest. In Claire eyes, time slowed down. She never expected to die by a bullet with her fight against umbrella. Right before the bullet tasted her flesh, she was pushed. Claire fell to the ground and Leon fell beside her. In confusion, she stood up looking down at Leon.
"Leon? Leon? No!" Claire sat next to him shaking him profusely.
She was blinking back tears. Just the thought of Leon not being around anymore, and the way he willingly changed her fate. He took a bullet in the chest just as he did for Ada.
"Leon please, wake up." Claire was just about to lose it and break down.
'It should've been me. How could I have been so reckless? How is he not hurt?'
"Wasn't the first bullet he took for a woman. Tough break for you though. You'll be going home empty handed. It's been a bad day for you." Wesker was stepping closer.
"Love gets in the way of things. It's everyone's weak spot. That's how Ada 'died'. She couldn't stand the thought of losing-"
"Fuck you! I won't hesitate to stab you again now back off. What the hell did we do to you?" She stood up screaming.
"That was no more than a fluke. More than you know. Now follow me and play along." He pointed the gun at her.
On his way to the elevator Chris saw Wesker holding his sister prisoner.
"Chris!" Claire pleaded.
"Claire? No!" He dashed towards them.
"Move." Wesker pushed her. They were gone; it was like they disappeared. Chris ran pushing zombies out of the way. He furiously busted into the next room.
"Let her go Wesker! You don't want her."
"You're right, but it's the best way to get to you. Ha!"
Suddenly the room started shaking. Somehow it slipped everyone's mind that the place they were standing in was going to explode soon. Chris knew Wesker was desperate to crush him, which gave him an idea.
"There's no time for standing around. This place is gonna blow. Are you going to face me or just stand behind Claire like a sissy bitch?" Chris remarked.
With that, Wesker pushed Claire aside. She fell to the ground, and then sprang for Chris. Chris embraced his sister but refused to take his eyes off Wesker.
"I came for Alexia, but killing you is even better."
"Sorry to disappoint you, but Alexia is finished."
"That's no longer a concern to me. I have Steve to work with."
"What?" Claire was shocked at this man's wickedness and knowledge.
"Steve?" Chris never met him but was worried because Claire was shook up about what he said.
"He still has the T-Veronica virus in him. Maybe he can come back alive just as I did, and be able to see your sister again."
"You freak!" Chris sneered.
"Don't you touch him!" Claire ran forward but Chris stopped her.
"I'm sorry dear, but my men have already taken him."
"You get out of here Claire."
"But what about-"
"As a surviving member of STARS, I have to handle this. Where's Leon?"
"That bastard shot at me, so he jumped in front of me and…" She started tearing up again and couldn't speak.
"You son of a bitch Wesker!" Chris screamed stepping closer to him. Wesker only laughed.
"Just go to the plane. Wait for me there." Chris commanded.
"I can't lose you too Chris. You're all I have left." Chris turned and nodded.
Claire ran off towards the plane. She looked in the place where Leon was shot, but she didn't see him.
"Leon? Where are you?" She sighed.
'It doesn't make any sense. There is no blood trail or anything. Wesker probably had someone take him away. Leon, my hero saved me yet again. Now he'll never know how much I care.'
"This is for all my comrades who you all killed." Chris stood tall and confident.
"I don't know where you get your confidence." Wesker threw his sunglasses and started towards Chris. Chris backed away into some metal poles. He quickly grabbed one and swung at him. Wesker just raised his arm to block it and the pole bent. Chris was awestruck. Wesker smiled, yanked the pole from him and kicked him. Chris flew across the room and blanked out for a second.
The base was shaking and parts of the ceiling were falling. Chris stood up and Wesker hooked him twice in the face. Then he grabbed him and kneed him in the stomach. One more punch was all it took for Chris to fall. While Chris was getting up Wesker was talking.
"Sure I'm not human anymore, but look at all the power I've gained!" He stood tall then did an uppercut move and Chris was flat on his back.
'How is he still moving? This is pretty fun though. Time to finish him off.'
"Impressive, don't you think?"
A bundle of heavy iron poles caught Chris's eye. They were held together by a chain.
'All I have to do is hit that lever.'
Wesker jumped up to pound a hole through Chris, but to his surprise, Chris elusively dove out of the way and hit the lever. Wesker missed him and shattered the ground. Then he was struck by several iron poles raining down on him. Chris breathed heavily but saw him rise out of the pile. In disbelief, he rose ready to fight again. Wesker stepped closer and lost his balance trying to walk.
"You'll have to do better than that Chris." Wesker stood without a scratch on him.
'He wasn't even affected by it at all. Just lost his balance for a second is all. How did he get this way?'
A bar from the ceiling fell, Chris turned away to avoid the fire. The bar fell separating the two men. When he turned back, Chris noticed Wesker's face was burned. The base was falling apart all around them. Small debris from the ceiling continued to fall down on them. They came to the realization that there was only seconds left until the place would collapse and explode.
"I'd love to kill you where you stand but I gotta save my own ass. Next time we meet, don't count on another." Wesker smiled cunningly.
"Next time."
"Until we meet again." Wesker stood around the flames laughing. There were slight explosions surrounding him.
Chris ignored him and immediately ran for the door to the plane.
Claire refused to give up on Leon, because he refused to give up on her. She tore apart the room looking for Leon's unconscious body.
Chris already made it to the plane.
'Looks like we'll make it out in time. Time to leave this crazy place.'
To his surprise, Claire wasn't aboard.
"Claire! Claire!" He shouted. Chris sprinted out of the plane and ran to the other door he saw. He stormed in and saw Claire tearing apart the room in a furious rage.
"Leon! Leon!" She screamed.
"Claire we gotta move. This place is about to go down."
"No, I gotta find Leon!" Chris yanked her arm.
"He's gone Claire. We got to leave, now!" His voice was immense. She was surprised at the sound of his voice. It all came together for her though.
"Okay." Claire admitted in defeat. After all, it's what Leon would want her to do.
Claire followed tightly behind Chris. The ground rumbled like an earthquake. The siblings were running towards the door when a monstrous chunk of the ceiling smacked Chris in the head. He dropped to the ground; out in an instant.
"Chris! Wake up!" Claire was shaking him nervously. She knew there was no way she could drag him to the plane. Even if she could, Claire had no idea how to fly a plane. There was nothing she could do. She sat holding Chris helplessly with tears streaming down her face; closing her eyes preparing to face the dark, cold, face of death.
I hate to leave the story on a cliff hanger like this, and I bet you do too, but I don't have time to finish it in one chapter.
