Resident Evil Rebirth
Chapter 12: Tortured Soul, Angry Heart
(Storage Shed/Courtyard Threshold-Courtyard)
Chris Redfield and Edward Dewey walked into the next room finding two different doors, Chris looked back deciding that he might as well "Jill. Forest. It's clear." he called out. Canceling his own orders he had them appear leaving Rebecca to care for Richard and Joseph. "Jill. It looks like this road leads to that guest house. Escort Richard and Rebecca there along with Joseph. Me and Edward are gonna check out down here." Chris explained.
Jill and Forest nodded agreeing. Jill spoke feeling calmer "Okay. After we send Rebecca, Joseph and Richard along we'll stay and investigate this area. After twenty minutes we'll report back to you." Chris gave her a thumbs up as he brought up his handgun and shouldering his shotgun. Forest brought up his grenade launcher thanking Chris for the extra ammo as it left him with a very useful twenty-four grenades. With all of that said Jill called for the others to come in while Chris and Edward moved through the other door.
They found themselves on a trail that lead into the woods, they followed the muddy trail down to a gate that lead into a small graveyard. All the flying birds gave Edward the creeps as they slowly made their way through the graveyard. But from the next gate he could see a shadowy trail that he could not see all the way down it. He turned to see Chris investigating a gravestone. He decided Chris probably knew what he was doing by now.
He reached behind his back to his backpack removing a small hexagon shaped emblem that depicted wind. He had found a hollow in the gravestone and he inserted it in. Suddenly the gravestone's base flipped upward and revealed something that was even stranger. Three more emblems depicting a star, a moon and a sun. He took them all and spotted another gravestone with three hollows.
Chris inserted each one ready to back off if this was any kind of trap, but as he pushed the moon emblem in it flipped up to reveal something beautiful. A Colt Python .357 Revolver Magnum full sized edition. It was as large as Barry's magnum and was obviously very powerful. But best of all it went with the eighteen revolver rounds he found earlier.
He slipped it in his belt and smiled "Man, somebody must have been a bigger lover of magnums than Barry to hide it here. Oh well, I can't complain. Edward, let's move." Edward smiled and they walked through the gate unknowing what would be creeping up behind them in just a few minutes.
(Courtyard Swimming Pool-Courtyard) In the meantime...
Jill Valentine couldn't believe their luck, she and Rebecca had to drain the pool to expose a walkway to the residence that seemed to be down an elevator on the other side. Rebecca luckily had found a crank earlier. Both of the women turned with all their strength until they completed three rotations and broke through the gathered dirt and rust in the mechanism that would drain the pool.
A large hatch slowly opened and the water drained out revealing a walkway that was completely safe. Jill and Rebecca noticed the waterfall noise in the background and knew they figured it was the drained water. Rebecca looked to her left and saw the guest house not to far "Jill it looks like the guest house is just down this walkway and down that elevator. I'll get Richard and Joseph there and see if I can find a medical room." Jill nodded and watched as Rebecca followed by Richard and Joseph went down the walkway that used to be the pool.
They waited for a few minutes not hearing any gunshots or struggling but heard Rebecca yell that the way was already cleared. Jill yelled back telling them to go on ahead as she ripped the crank back out of the mechanism. Forest told her he figured it filled on a regular basic so they should probably keep the crank for later uses. She nodded tucking it behind her back.
Suddenly there was the sound of a closing door from where they had came, Forest chuckled figuring it was Chris and walked back to the courtyard's entrance. Both of them were surprised to find the door had been knocked off it's hinges and was on the ground. Jill brought up her Remington pumping it once as she didn't need anymore trouble, Forest walked around the corner looking for anything suspicious.
Jill breathed slowly and silently only hoping that it was one of the other Alphas or Enrico and the door had just gotten stuck. There was silence for the next few seconds that seemed like minutes or hours to her she couldn't bear to speak or ask if it was clear as she didn't want to make any noise. Jill slowly lowered her shotgun after about thirty seconds feeling as if it was nothing.
Suddenly there was a scream, and it belonged to Forest Speyer. There was also the sound of exploding grenades as she heard the launcher go off several times but stopped as it reached six shots. He stumbled trying to grab another set of rounds but found himself dropping his launcher. Jill then heard a loud cracking sound and looked to see Forest arm hanging from his side, the bone stabbing out of his flesh drawing heavy blood.
Jill couldn't speak as she finally saw it, a horrible mangled shadow that she couldn't make out made it's way at Forest. There was the sound of chains but she couldn't tell where they were from. Forest shot constant rounds into the monster's face but nothing seemed to happen as he suddenly heard the sound of a dry chamber. He quickly came up with another clip and raised the gun firing off another fifteen rounds but the monster continued to shrug them off.
Jill couldn't move as she finally saw the creatures face and felt herself about to faint. Suddenly it happened the monster raised up it's hands that seemed to be held together by a large square object. She swung sideways and Forest was silenced, forever. The whole left side of Forest's face exploded in a splash of blood, brain and bone and he fell over, giving up the goast.
Valentine snapped into attention as she saw this "Forest! No!" she brought up her shotgun firing. The buckshot caused the monster to fall back, Jill was on the brink of darkness as she continued to fire. As her shotgun exhausted it's six loaded shots she went for the powerful .44 magnum she had found back in the mansion and prepared to open fire, but noticed the monster was about to move. With an almost female grunt it smashed down a heavy brick wall. Jill snapped out of it and fired three shots all of them going wide, and in one swift jump, the monster disappeared.
Jill felt the magnum revolver trembling in her hands as it fell to the ground clattering with the sound of metal against rock. Feeling tears stream down her face she moved over to the obviously dead Forest Speyer who had been such a good friend. She suddenly fell to her knees letting her hands cover her face and silently cried. She didn't care about embarrassment anymore and after everything she had witness she just wanted to let go. The mansion was slowly beginning to break her.
(Raccoon Forest Trail-Outside Mansion)
Chris Redfield and Edward Dewey slowly made their way up the trail, Edward holding his Beretta and Glock while Chris held out his Beretta loaded with S&W40. They slowly march up the obviously out of the way trail allowing the dry grass to crunch under their feet as they made their way to a light in the distance. They had just heard several gun shots and were worried but knew that Jill and Forest could take care of themselves.
They soon found the light to be a very old cabin that looked more like a tool shed than an actual place to live. But if there was light then there could be life or even better yet a phone. They found herbs growing outside as well as a large pile of firewood showing that somebody lived out here. But the wood it didn't look like it was chopped it looked almost as if it was broken. Chris didn't know why but he brought up his Beretta and gripped it as if it was the difference between life and death.
Suddenly a transmission came through on the radio that was attached to Chris's belt. He quickly answered it to hear a familiar voice "Somebody...respond..." the voice said. Chris recognized it instantly "Wesker?" he asked himself. He found the static getting in his way and quickly adjusted the channel trying to get a fix on Wesker.
He managed to find Wesker speaking on channel four and he didn't exactly seem as calm as he usually was "A monster in chains...guns...not...effective...a...gainst it..." Edward couldn't believe what he was hearing how could anything be invulnerable to weapons fire. Wesker continued in a very serious voice "Stay away from the forest outside the mansion...Stay...away..." the radio went dead but Chris knew there was something up.
They quickly rushed into the cabin and bolted the door not wanting any of those zombies to get in and after what Chris had just gone through with that V-ACT he didn't wanna fight another one. The cabin wasn't exactly home sweet home as it was covered in dust but it had some very strange features to it. There was a freshly lit fire at the fireplace and next to it was a large pile of pumpkins that seemed to be a food supply for something.
They moved up a small fleet of stairs and found themselves in anther room with a bed and a small desk. They searched the room finding nothing of much use. However Edward found a very nice machete that seemed to have been sharpened recently, and Chris found a machine gun magazine but he had no weapon like that. He took it anyway as he walked to the desk.
He searched it finding a small tattered picture, all he could really make out was a woman's leg in the picture but notes were attached to it. He called Edward over and they read them aloud.

Chris Redfield slowly pocketed the strange and illegible report with trembling fingers as he felt something evil wash over him. He felt cold on the inside and knew one thing, something had happened. He didn't know how he knew but whoever wrote this report wasn't insane. Whoever it was had been very young and most likely violated in some way worse than any imaginable.
He quickly turned to Edward with a serious look in his eye "We have to get back to Jill. Something has happened." Edward simply nodded and they both walked from the small office. As they walked through the doorway they heard the door to the cabin open followed by heavy footsteps. Chris placed a hand on his newly found magnum as he unshouldered his shotgun "Wesker? Jill? Barry?" he called a pause between each.
Chris suddenly froze with fear as whatever this thing was appeared before him, the strange creature illuminated by the burning fire. Chris couldn't believe it the thing was almost human or at least it used to be as it had two arms, two legs and one head. But it was hunched over and seemed to wear the remains of a gray dress. Chris couldn't tell what was going on as the monster seemed to wear to faces, one shredded over it's half exposed skull and on it's back. The monster's smell was horrible and Chris Redfield and his partner felt faint from it. It was chained in very old style shackles, and leg braces. What made up it's neck and back was a disgusting mountain of flesh. But on the large rectangular shackles was fresh blood.
Chris couldn't move as the monster advanced he was scared out of his mind and felt as if he would throw up as the smell grew worse. Suddenly he snapped out of his trance as the monster brought the large shackles down "Shit!" Chris screamed as he rolled out of the way ending up behind the monster. He brought up his shotgun and fired one shell into it's face causing it to fall back in pain. It wasn't even fazed though as it got ready to attack again.
Edward made his move he grabbed hold of the chain that dragged behind the monster and pulled. The monster fell back grunting an almost female grunt as Edward kicked it across it's mangled face. The monster came after Edward who noticed a rather large support beam in the middle of the room. Thinking quickly he wrapped the chain around the support beam until he had three revolutions one on top of the other.
Edward grabbed the handcuffs off his belt and slapped it around the chains clamping it shut. He then noticed the monster coming at him and quickly jumped back away from it. He took the other cuff and slapped it on the monster's left arm as it tried to take a swing at him "Your not going anywhere. Buckle up!" with that said he and Chris ran from the cabin. Leaving the monster to pull on the support beam that held the house up.
Chris and Edward about two minutes later heard a loud crash from behind them and slowly turned to see that the cabin had fallen in and most likely killed the monster. Edward looked on until he snapped out of it and saw a propane tank next to the wreckage. Bringing up his Glock 17 he fired a single round, the tank exploded and the wreckage caught fire. Chris nodded to Edward's actions as he held his heart that was going full blast.
Chris looked back "We had better get back to Jill and Forest." he started off but noticed Edward hadn't moved. He looked to his superior "You go on ahead. I'm gonna see if I can find Enrico or Wesker around here. I'll catch up. Trust me." Chris decided to let him have his way and ran back down the trail. Edward calmly lit a cigarette as he looked at the flaming wreckage knowing that whatever he had just killed was defiantly once human.
(Courtyard Threshold-Courtyard)
Chris Redfield ran back through the graveyard, up the hill and into the courtyard where he expected to find several dead zombies. Instead he only heard the sound of a woman crying. He looked down an small alley to his left to see somebody in the shadows. He rushed over to find Jill crying over a body who had had his head covered with a small sack. Chris noticed it was Forest and felt his heart sink as his best friend was now dead.
Jill looked up to see him standing there with his head facing the ground "I'm...I'm sorry Jill...I shouldn't have left you in the open." Jill jumped up and walked over to Chris. She shook her head between tears "It's not your fault. I shouldn't have froze. But I just couldn't..." she broke out into tears again crying on Chris's shoulder. He brought his hand up to place on the back of her head.
He had a look in his eyes that was beyond serious "It will be all right. Forest died protecting the others." Jill shook her head telling Chris that he was wrong. "I couldn't kill the thing. I let it get away!" Chris didn't care as he held her.
Chris Redfield slowly pushed the sweat soaked strands of hair out of Jill's face "We can't mourn until we get out of here. And when we find out who did this we will take them down alot harder than this!" reluctantly Chris removed his handgun and aimed at Forest head "Forgive me. But I can't have you coming back." Jill forced his hand down telling him that Forest head had been destroyed by the monster.
Chris sighed as he holstered his handgun. Jill decided not to mourn anymore as Forest wouldn't want that, she bent down releaving him of his Grenade Launcher, side pack and extra grenades. With that done the pair followed Rebecca and the others not knowing that this wasn't the last time they would see the first victim of the mysterious plague.
