Happy New Year, everyone! Here's Chapter 29! I down own Resident Evil. Enjoy!
Just a little note: Just like the others, the New Year's special does not change the original storyline in any way. "A New Revolution" still takes place in the summer of 2008. Just wanted to clear that up.
A New Revolution
A Resident Evil and OC Story

Chapter 29: A Time For Action
Nightfall had soon attacked Tokyo's sky, and stars served as a decoration for the city. The lights that covered Tokyo beamed brightly, and all the sounds of the city regularly took place. Billy gazed at the city scenery through the large window in the hotel room he shared with Sophie and Sheva. He had just awaken from a nap and he had seen that both women were gone. He assumed that both were out seeing the sights of Tokyo before their encounter with Wesker.
Billy walked away from the window and walked to the bathroom. His white fingers brushed against the door knob, got a firm grip onto it, and turned it to open it softly. Billy stepped onto the tile flooring of the bathroom and closed the door behind him. He began to walk forward but was stopped by something that clung onto his feet. Billy looked down and saw clothes in a pile. Among the clothes he saw a blouse, a bra, and panties. A small blush heated his cheeks and he looked to his side.
There was Sophie, soaking in the tub. Well, the way she positioned herself in the tub would not have been described as soaking, but more like just sitting in it. She was, of course, stark naked, and she was cradled in a ball. Her knees were high to her chest and her head was buried in her arms. Sophie's upper body looked completely untouched by the water, despite the water being a semi-high level. Billy also noticed a strange birthmark on her arm; he thought it was a tattoo until he realized the birthmark was the same exact color as her skin.
Remembering the door closing, Sophie slowly lifted her head up to look at Billy. She blinked. Billy blinked.
"I'm, uh, sorry…" Billy muttered, looking at Sophie. "I didn't know you were here."
"No, that's alright. You're not the first man to see me naked." Sophie said. "Actually, I'm glad you're here, Billy." she added.
"You are?"
Sophie nodded.
"Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Sophie nodded again. Billy stepped over Sophie's clothes and moved towards the tub. He bent down and sat on the edge with his back turned to Sophie, as he was still a little embarrassed about the situation they were in. Billy turned his head to Sophie. "What is it?" he asked.
Sophie lowered her head again and propped her chin on her arm. "What you said to me on the plane….did you really mean it?"
Billy looked at her. "Yes, Sophie. I did." he answered.
"I mean, would you really kill me?" Sophie asked, her voice in a whisper.
Billy didn't have a response for this time, so Sophie continued to talk. "I understand that the things that you went through in your life have shaped your outlook on this world. I'd have to admit, the things I have faced now have certainly given me another way to look at the things around me. But not just this kind of life, my childhood as well. I remember the days when my father would…touch me in places that were to be left untouched. I guess that really opened my eyes to how some people in the world would be."
"I didn't mean that part." Billy said. Sophie looked up at him. "What?"
"Sophie, I would never kill you. I can't afford to."
"…"
"I'm an escaped convict who's now in Japan. If I get caught, your death will not make my record any better." Billy said, laughing a bit. Sophie raised her eyebrows before giggling herself. Afterwards, a dose of silence hit the bathroom. It was awkward, both of them could have figured that out. Billy had something on his mind and he was having a hard time trying to express that. The fact that Sophie was naked around him didn't really bother him, but it did make him a little embarrassed.
"Want me to wash your back?" was the question that Sophie heard Billy ask her.
After staring at the warm water for a while, Sophie lifted her head up at Billy, who only looked at her. Billy saw a blush rise to her face as she looked at him. The expression on his face was neutral, telling Sophie that he didn't really care about the fact that she was naked.
"Uh….okay." Sophie finally said, bringing her head back down. From the corner of her eye, she saw Billy reach for the washcloth and get up off the bathtub. Billy damped the washcloth into the water, rung it out a bit and grabbed the soap, mixing the water and soap together to make the washcloth complete with soap. Billy gestured for Sophie to move her hair and Sophie obliged. She pushed her hair over to her right shoulder and held it together so it wouldn't move away. For the first few seconds Sophie felt nothing. Suddenly, a cool and relaxing sensation touched her skin, causing Sophie to jump slightly. She heard Billy chuckle and he continued to wash.
Whimpers escaped Sophie's mouth as Billy gently moved the washcloth up and down her back. Though, Sophie couldn't help but feel relaxed at the way he was treating her. She felt Billy's free hand gently touch her left shoulder while his right hand scrubbed her back. Some of the soap slid off down her back, sending cool sensations throughout Sophie's body. A moan slipped passed her lips, triggering a blush to appear underneath her eyes. She could feel Billy getting closer towards her as his breath tickled her skin. The sexual tension flew through the air, and Sophie believed that she was the only one who felt it. Yet Billy was not a dumb man, he felt it, too. He tried his very best to ignore it, but the thoughts of Billy touching Sophie's exposed body slightly intrigued him.
Billy couldn't lie. He liked Sophie's shape. She had a nice figure and model-like proportions. Of course, there were scars from previous gunfights, including the one that Billy took care of. Though Billy could highly understand that. He thought Sophie was tough, as most women would cry. However, Sophie wasn't like most women, as most women don't go through these kind of lengths to find their brothers.
Sophie had to admit that Billy's hand felt good on her skin. It made her relax a little bit more. Slowly, Sophie moved her free arm down to the water and moved her legs from her chest just a bit, revealing her breasts a bit. Billy secretly saw this action and smirked, but quickly went back to tending to Sophie's back. Once Sophie's back was fully covered in soap, Billy damped the washcloth and lifted it up again gently. Billy then rung the cloth out, allowing every single drop of water to glide down Sophie's back. Sophie couldn't help but moan a little bit, despite her best interest in holding her moans in.
'Should I tell her? I shouldn't, the situation is awkward enough as it is.' Billy thought as he wiped the soap tenderly off of Sophie's back.
"Sophie?" Billy muttered. Sophie turned her head to him slightly. "Hm?" she murmured.
Before Sophie could think of what Billy could possibly want, she felt big, strong arms wrap around her neck, as if they were protecting her. Sophie gasped when she felt Billy's head sneak onto her shoulder, and she motioned her eyes to him. She saw that his eyes were low and he looked at the water. Sophie felt the warmth that Billy carried transfer over to her and make her feel good, releasing a moan that only Sophie herself would hear. Billy's chest pressed against Sophie's wet back, making Sophie a little embarrassed by this position.
"Thank you, Sophie. For putting up with me. I know you really didn't have a choice, but I'm glad that you even considered putting up with a son-of-a-bitch like me. Thank you." Billy whispered into her ear. Sophie shivered when she felt his breath push onto her earlobe.
Sophie said nothing and only nodded. She really didn't know what to say at that moment. Quite frankly, she wasn't sure whether giving a response would be the best thing at that time. However, for some reason, Sophie felt as if Billy was saying something else. The words that Billy said just didn't quite fit his actual feelings, and Sophie was trying to decipher them in her head. As Billy held onto her, his hot breath slowly began seducing Sophie. Finally, she caught onto what he was saying, and in response, raised a hand from the water and placed it onto Billy's dry arm.
"There's no need to thank me, Billy." Sophie said. 'I'm sorry, but I don't feel the same way.'
Billy took a moment to respond. "Alright." 'I understand, Sophie. I understand.'
Billy finally released her and got up from the tub. He placed the washcloth on the edge and stretched, sighing while doing so. Sophie looked at him, leaving her chest exposed. Though, both Sophie and Billy didn't seem to care.
"I better get going. I could only imagine how Sheva would react if she found us in here." Billy said, giving Sophie a warm smile.
Sophie nodded and countered with another smile. With that done, Billy stepped over her pile of clothes and exited the bathroom, closing the door softly behind him. Sophie turned back to the water. It was starting to get a bit cold and Sophie's skin was starting to prune.
"Perhaps I should get out, too." Sophie said. 'There's no way out, though.'
Chris released a huge sigh and collapsed onto the chair. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a box of cigarettes. Tapping the bottom to push one out, when one did pop out Chris grabbed it and placed it between in lips. He reached into his other pocket and pulled out a lighter. With just on flick, the cigarette lit. Chris placed both the lighter and the box of cigarettes on the table beside him, and blew a puff of smoke from his mouth with ease.
A knock came at the door. Chris rose from his seat and walked, grabbing his gun while walking. Raising his weapon, Chris pressed half of his body onto the door and looked into the peep hole.
"Who is it?" Chris asked. He just hoped that the person spoke English.
"Room service." answered the person on the other side. The voice belonged to a woman. Chris relaxed a bit and placed his gun in the back of his pants, pulling his green shirt over it to hide it. Chris grabbed the door knob and turned it and let the woman in. The woman was, of course, an Asian woman. She had short, black hair, and wore a baby blue outfit that was decorated with red and white stripes.
"I am sorry to have bothered you, kind sir." the woman said, giving Chris an innocent and warm smile.
Chris smiled back and nodded. "No worries." he said, stepping aside to make room for the woman and her cart. Taking a quick look outside, Chris shut the door.
When he turned around, his eyes captured the woman rushing towards him and quickly injected him in the neck with something. Chris gritted his teeth as the green substance slowly worked into his body. 'What the hell?' he thought. Despite his body becoming paralyzed, he used his strength to slowly reach for his gun. When Chris gained a grip onto the weapon, another figure exited for under the cart and ran behind Chris, grabbing his arms and also the gun.
"This is too easy." Jack said while laughing. Chris attempted to get away but his body was already paralyzed. Chris soon noticed that his vision was starting to blur. Eventually, his legs gave out on him and he headed for the ground. Jack eased him to it.
"Nice job, Ada." Jack said while standing up straight. Ada chuckled and took off her hat, running her fingers through her black hair. Jack then pulled her close and started to kiss her deeply. As their eyes closed, their tongues did battle. After a few minutes they pulled away.
"Up for a quickie?" Jack asked.
Ada smirked. "Like you could last." she remarked. "Now help me get this body back to the room."
"Look at this place, it's huge!" Karen exclaimed, looking around the Japanese-style restaurant called The Red Tree Restaurant . Her brother was sitting right across from her, reading Japanese For Dummies. "How do you say 'awesome' in Japanese?" Karen asked.
"Sugoi." Kevin told her.
"Well, this place is sugoi."Karen said. She picked up her cup of sake and took a sip, struggling to swallow it and rubbing her temple.
"What's the name of the band that's playing?" Karen asked her brother.
"I think they're called 'The Ho-Ho Fighters'." Kevin answered, never looking up from his book.
"Sounds kind of nasty, but the audience likes it."
"Well, the song they're singing is called 'Licking Sweat and Booty'."
Karen looked up at her brother. "How did you know that?" she asked.
"I don't. I just assumed that was the title because that's the only English words I hear from them."
"What was the reason behind you slaughtering my father, clan, and my husband?" Kimiko asked, her voice calm and her hands wrapped around a small cup of sake.
Before giving her an answer, Wesker took a sip of his drink. Kimiko watched it go down his esophagus and snorted. Wesker place his drink down and snorted himself. The two were located in a private room that was in a higher level of the restaurant. The room was guarded by some of Wesker's mercenaries.
"Your father and I…weren't the best of friends. We were always at each other's throat for the simplest things. We made bets, and I usually won them. However, there was one day where your father got a little too cocky, and decided to play with life and death. We made our bet, he lost of course, and…."
Kimiko's eyes widened. She sat very still and stared at Wesker, who only stared back through his black sunglasses. "Well, I think you know what happened." he concluded.
"So…why did you kill me husband? My husband wasn't part of the bet, my father and the clan were!" Kimiko said, pounding her fists onto the table.
Wesker sighed. "All you fucking Asians look the same to me. I couldn't tell, I sincerely apologize." he said.
Kimiko just stared at him. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her husband was killed by mistaken identity. And on top of that, Wesker had apologized in the simplest way. This angered Kimiko to no end. As her anger rose, she grabbed her katana and released it from his covering. She jumped onto the table and swung her katana at Wesker. Unfortunately, Wesker grabbed his pistol quickly and blocked her attack. Both weapons trembled as they both tried to hold the other back.
"You bastard. How dare you act so heartless and cold! I'll kill you!" Kimiko growled.
Wesker gave a seductive chuckle. "I'd like to see you try!"
"This place is nice." Billy remarked as he walked into 'The Red Tree Restaurant' with Sophie and Sheva. He wore a blue suit with a yellow shirt showing in his blue jacket, a black belt held his pants up, and on his footwear were black shoes. Black sunglasses rested on the bridge of his nose and a Rolex watch that was supplied by Sheva. Billy's dark hair was brushed back, but strands were still a little out of place.
Sheva's choice of attire was a red dress and matching red heels. A golden necklace hung around her neck and wore matching golden earrings. Her hair was perfectly straight and tied into a ponytail, and it rested on her left shoulder. Red lipstick was painted onto her lips, giving her a more sophisticated but deadly look.
Sophie chose to wear a white and black blouse with black jeans, and black heels. Just like Sheva's, her hair was pulled back into a ponytail but it hung down her backside. Silver stud earrings were inserted into her ears.
The thing that they all shared was that they were all carrying some sort of bag. Billy's was the biggest, while Sophie and Sheva carried smaller bags. They all walked over to a table, placing their bags underneath them. A woman in a beautiful kimono walked over, smiled at them, and offered them each English-translated menus. She walked away and they all flipped their menus open to see what the restaurant had to offer.
"The only things I recognized on this menu are sushi and ramen." Billy muttered to himself. Sheva chuckled while Sophie continued to look over the menu.
"I wonder what this is-"
A large noise was heard from the higher room. Everyone down below looked up and saw a female body hurdling towards the ground. Screams filled the air and people moved out of the way, not even attempting to catch the woman. However, the woman spun around and landed on her feet, then performing a back flip to get much greater balance. People surrounded the woman who quietly got up and looked back at the room she was thrown from.
It was Kimiko. She tightened her grip around her katana as she watched Wesker walk out of the room and stand on the banister with perfection. The pistol was firmly in his right hand, locked and loaded. One woman saw the gun and screamed and pointed, which made everyone immediately catch on. Everyone, including the band, ran out of the restaurant in fear and screams. The restaurant owners did not leave the place, but simply hid in a place where they were invisible to them.
Sophie, Sheva, and Billy all looked shocked when they saw Wesker. They held their surprise in and decided to hide under the table, hoping that the table cloth would hide them well. They each caught a grip onto their bags and stayed quiet. Sophie looked around and caught her eyes onto other people still in the restaurant. People that looked all too familiar.
"Kevin! Karen!" Sophie whispered. She saw them take quick peaks out to see what was going on. Sophie dropped the tablecloth and hid with Billy and Sheva.
"What are we going to do?" Billy asked the girls. Each one of them gave him a shrug. Sophie was about to speak but was interrupted by loud screams. The sound of many people running down the stairs filled their eardrums, and then the sound just stopped all of a sudden.
Sophie peaked out and saw the mercenaries surrounding Kimiko. Wesker then slowly walked down the stairs with his pistol in his hand, never taking his gaze off of Kimiko. Kimiko did the same and stared him down, and she looked as if she could see right through him. Suddenly, Wesker stopped at the middle of the stairs but continued to stare at Kimiko. Kimiko watched as Wesker raised his arm and pointed out his index finger.
"Attack her!" Wesker ordered.
"We have to help her!" Sophie told the others, to which they all agreed. Quickly, the trio reached into their bags and grabbed their respected weapons and ammo, and they all ran from underneath the table.
Kevin and Karen watched quietly, staying close and making sure that they didn't cause any trouble or let anyone know of their existence.
Before the mercenaries could attack, they all looked at the three who had now entered. Sophie stepped forward with a glare. "Wesker!!" she shouted, which surely gained Wesker's attention. As Wesker turned to her, he grinned and chuckled devilishly.
"Kill them as well!" Wesker ordered.
The mercenaries began shooting and all four of them ran out of the way. Kimiko tried to block the bullets with her katana, while the other three shot back at them. Sophie was mostly aiming at Wesker. Wesker jumped down from the banister and ran into his room again. "Shoot." Sophie muttered underneath her breath.
As they all shot back, Kimiko used this chance to sneak up behind one of them and slashed his throat. Blood spurted out of the wound that was formed and the man eventually collapsed into his own blood. Other mercenaries turned around and started shooting, but Kimiko slashed through their flesh before any of them could hit her. More and more blood conjoined as dead bodies dropped, and the bullet shells dropped into the blood, creating small shapes into red puddles.
Kimiko looked back at the trio. "I don't know who you three are, but thank you!" she shouted.
"No worries!" Sheva said as she continued to shoot. "We've a grudge against that man."
Quickly, Sophie ran up the stairs and in the direction of the room Wesker hid in. She slid the door open with great force and was surprised to find out that Wesker was not there. Sophie ran into the room and looked around, only finding a messy table and slightly torn pillows. "Where's Wesker?" Sophie muttered. She ran back outside and looked down at Billy, Sheva, and Kimiko who were almost down with the mercenaries. She also saw Karen trying to hide underneath pillows on a couch and Kevin still look at the fight.
Suddenly, Sophie caught onto an object that came from the entrance and was flying through the air. "Look out!" Sophie cried, pointing. Sheva, Billy, Kimiko, and even Karen and Kevin looked and saw something fall to the ground. Sheva moved forward and looked at it more closely, backing away quickly when she realized what it was.
"Move back! It's a flash bomb!" Sheva shouted.
Suddenly, it went off. Sheva, Billy, and Kimiko covered their eyes and tired to find their way out of the restaurant. Karen constantly bumped into things before her brother successfully led her out. Sophie tried to find the stairs but unfortunately, ended up tripping and falling over the banister. Sophie yelped as she continued to fall. She could already imagine the bruises she would receive.
Before Sophie could even hit the floor, a pair of strong arms grabbed her. The flash bomb was still in effect, so Sophie could not see her savior. She still tried to see who broke her fall. When Sophie opened her eyes, she saw nothing but white. However, the flash bomb was slowly starting to wear off but Sophie was still blinded a bit. While she was moving, all Sophie could really see was a black hood.
'What?'
End of Chapter 29
There it is! This is possibly the longest chapter I have done so far. I'm sorry it's so long, but I hope you all enjoyed it. Also, the part where Kevin was reading 'Japanese For Dummies' was supposed to be an inside joke, as I got the same book for Christmas. Thank you!
P.S. For some reason, I'm having a horrible feeling that I am filling my story up with fillers. At the start of this story, I didn't really have an understanding as to what a filler was(I am so dumb…). Now I know, and now I'm afraid. Do you all think my story is okay so far?
P.S.S. Also, can any of you tell me what exactly does the term "canon" means? I'd appreciate it!
