3 Months Later

Jake was running "Oh this was a great idea" he complained

Piers smirked as he saw Jake through is scope. He was at a tower looking down on everything. "It was your idea" he said as he moved to see the two BOW's behind Jake.

"That is why I'm complaining! Why did you ever agreed to it?!" he responded

"Because I'm out of the way" Piers said as he shot at one of the Napads making it fall on what you can all them knees. "I hate these" he added as he made another shot at the weak point in the back.

"You're not the only one!' Piers could hear Jake as he moved to see where Jake was. Piers made the shot, making the other Napad fall to the ground and gave Jake the time to punch the heck out of it as Piers lifted his new Anti-Material Rifle and looked down. He adjusted his hoodie as he saw the BSAA helicopters arriving. He strapped the rifle behind him. He has been seeing the BSAA more and more where Jake and him where working. He saw the truck pulled next to Jake and he saw a familiar face he hasn't seen in a year, Chris Redfield. He then took the rope and went down the tower.

Jake rolled his eyes and looked up at where Piers was and saw the man with his hood stepping away. He looked at Chris who then looked up and seeing nothing where Jake was looking, he sighed and looked towards Jake. "I got reports of someone dealing with BOW's, I should've known" he said

Jake smirked "Well your department have their hands full so" he said

"We can handle…" Chris started

"I doubt it, I've been in so many places that even the BSAA can't or won't go" Jake interrupted.

As Jake and Chris were talking… Piers was heading out to a rendezvous location Jake and he set up in case the BSAA appeared. Nivans did not want them to know he was alive, so every time they appeared, he disappeared. Two BSAA members appeared in front of him, luckily a fabric covered half his face and the hood made it difficult to see him. As they started to advance to him asking him to put the rifle down he managed move forward and knock them out. Piers was initially fast, but he was faster now since they discovered that the C-Virus was still in him, it enhanced his abilities made him use some of the new abilities he acquired. Jake had experienced it while they were staying in a hotel and they were cautious about it ever since. He took a deep breath and looked down at the unconscious soldiers.

"Captain, our recon team doesn't respond" A new soldier, Jake has ever seen appeared behind Chris.

Chris looked at Jake "Do you have someone with you?" he asked

Jake shrugged "No comment on that soldier. How about you follow orders and take care of the rest. I doubt there are more here" he said as he left.

Chris tried to stop him but Muller left quickly. He looked at his soldier "Get to them, check they are alright" he said "If anything happened to them we will go after them" he said

The soldiers walked towards their captain "Not necessary sir, we thought we had him, and he got us" Karl said

Jason who was the one who informed Chris about the situation looked at them. "What the hell happened?" he asked

Karl looked at Jason "We tried to stop him but he got the better of us. " he said as he frowned

Chris looked at him and stepped closer to them "Him? Who's him?" he asked

"A male, we couldn't see him very well, because he was carrying a weapon." Karl said "It was interesting also"

"How so…?" Chris asked as he moved towards him.

"He had an Anti-Material rifle sir. Very similar what the late Soldier Nivans used." Karl mentioned

Chris stood there looking at the floor, but in reality he was thinking back. Back to what happened in China, because of him, he lost him. Lost one of his best soldiers, heck the best soldier he ever had, and why? Because he was too absorbed in what he was doing. He risked the life of Piers Nivans and in the end, he was killed. But the mention of someone who used the same rifle as Piers made him frown; made him want to know who this mysterious person was. And most importantly why he was with Jake Muller, the person they saved from the underwater facility. He needed to confirm, it was too much of a coincidence.

"We will have to follow Jake Muller's movements. I want to know where he is" Chris said

"Sir..?" Jason asked

"I have to confirm, I have to… " Chris said

The soldiers nodded as they left, to clean up what the mercenaries did.

Piers arrived at the rendezvous location and started pacing; the building was abandoned by the many people that wanted to escape the BOWs. He sat down and placed his arm on the table, something to hang on. That was a close one, and soon they would have the BSAA looking for them. He started trembling; he closed his eyes as he took deep breaths. He heard the door open and he managed to get a hand gun out only to see it was Jake. He sighed and lowered the gun.

"Shit I almost shot you" he said to the younger man. He stood up and looked at Jake.

"Are you okay?" Jake asked

Piers laughed softly "You're asking me if I'm okay?" he said as he looked away "I almost…" he closed his eyes.

"Hey, I doubt they saw you, they would've shouted at the radio coms, and I didn't hear anything like that" Jake assured then soldier. "By the way, nice shooting" he added

Piers smirked "Thanks" he said knowing that Jake was just trying to lighten up the situation. "We have to be careful, they might follow us from now on" he said

Jake smirked "We have done this for a while, I think we can teach them a thing or two about dealing with the BOWs" he said.

Piers managed to control it as he took a syringe out and injected himself on the arm.

"Is it bad?" Jake asked as he moved close.

Piers closed his eyes "It was" he said as he placed his hand on his head. He was starting to feel better "I think I'm ok"

"Well let's get out of here then" Jake said

At the BSAA-

Chris arrived and immediately called his sister, he told her about what he was thinking and knowing what he went through a year ago, he knew he needed someone's opinion. And it had to be from someone he trusted with his life that one being Claire Redfield. He couldn't call Leon because he was working with Sherry Birkin on something that was classified even for the BSAA.

"You think it's him?" Claire said after hearing his brother

"I don't know, but I need to find out" Chris said

Claire looked at the stack of papers in front of her. "I missed him, and when you told me what happened, I wish I had sent him the pictures he asked of you" she smiled.

"Hey, no one gets to see those pictures" Chris said with a smirk.

"I know, well… I'll try and verify what I can check on my end, on Jake" Claire said.

"Thanks Claire" Chris said as he hung up and looked at his paperwork on Jake, he noticed that Muller would go to different locations that have sightings on BOWs and gets paid on getting rid of them. Some locations the BSAA cannot take their men, he would go.

Chris smirked as he got the idea, where the BSAA did not send their people, Captain Redfield would go. He also needed to know what Jake needed the serum so much. Claire had told him that Sherry was sending the serum to Jake every month in the past 3 months. He contacted headquarters to verify if there were any sightings and to contact him when anything appears on radar.
