"What are we going to do?!" Ashley yelled as she began to tremble in fear. "Easy," Remus said as he ran to the door Salazar had run through and began to beat it. It gave a loud hollowed sound, but didn't cave in. Remus hit it again, and again. The door shuddered under the strength of the blows. "One more!!" Remus hit the door and it flew backwards. He turned and looked up at the ceiling, there was less then a foot and a half above his head. "Go!!" Thankfully Leon, Luis and Ashley were beside him and needed no prompting to run through the exit.

Remus winced in pain as one of the spikes grazed his cheek, and rolled through the door before the spikes impaled him. "You okay?" Leon asked helping him to stand. "Yeah, Everyone else okay?"

"Yeah, we're all alright. So where do we go now?" Leon asked as he looked down the narrow hallway. "Well, since you had to go have a chat with little Napoleon, I don't know really…" Remus said as he shrugged. "But I do know that this is a secret passage, and hopefully it may have a detour or something…" Remus shrugged again. "Let's just go and see what Fate hands us, shall we?" He said as he walked down the darkened hall.

RESIDENTEVIL

"Leon!!" Ashley screamed as a large insect dragged her off into the air. "Shit!!" Leon cursed as he watched the bug fly away through a window. "Well, think positive!! At least we don't have to put up with her constant bitching of, 'Oh, Leon!!' 'Hey!! Slow down!!' 'My feet hurt!! Can we take a break? Like now, please?'" Remus imitated her high pitched voice and clung to Leon's arm, his eyes watery. Leon couldn't help it, he smiled slightly. "There you go, much better now, huh? We'll get her back, Leon. I promise," Remus said, patting Leon's shoulder.

"Hey, you two done kissing over there? I'd like to get out of this creepy place, amigos!!" Luis said, looking at Remus and Leon. Leon rolled his eyes, "Yeah, we need to get moving before more of those bugs show up…" Remus nodded, and a few seconds later the bugs began to fly in, the hum of their wings, hurting Remus' sensitive ears. The bugs hovered over them as they tried to get away to a safer spot. "You just had to say that, Leon?!" Luis yelled as he fired at one of the bugs that had crawled towards him, splattering its brains and eight eyes all over the wall.

Remus decided against using his Glock or his Magnum, he had a feeling he'll be needing it later on; he used his clawed left arm to slash and tear through the small hoard. Leon kept his hand steady as he fired, two shots for each, he thought as he kept them at a distance. "Quick!! Through that cave there, it'll force them to get in close and we can blow them away!!" Remus said over the loud hums of wings and gunshots.

They turned to run and when they made it through the small stone doorway, Leon let a grenade drop near it. The bugs began to crawl through in bunches and they covered their ears as the grenade went off, killing a large portion of the bugs. Leon smirked as he began a quick cleanup. "Smart ass…" Remus muttered, when he passed Leon, who looked smug. "So, where to next?" Luis asked, reloading his Red9.

"To be honest? I haven't the foggiest…I just say let, Kennedy take us through this cavern," Remus said as he looked around. He could hear the bugs, the opening and closing of their horrific maws, the occasional hum of their wings when they fluttered. "Remus?" Leon's voice cut through the haze of his thoughts. "Yes, Leon?"

"While we're on our little walk…Do you think you could tell me what happened that day six years ago?"

Remus turned his head to look over his shoulder and gave a small nod. "You have the right to know. I'll tell you when we get going, but you both must never repeat a word of what I'm about to tell you to anyone," Remus said looking at both men. Leon and Luis nodded, and Remus sighed. "After I told Claire, Sherry, and Vic to drag you away for medical help…"

RESIDENTEVIL

"Let's go, we'll wait for you, Remus…" Claire said as they began to walk to the outside of the tunnel. When they were out of sight, his hands fell limply at his sides. He was exhausted and he felt horrible for lying to them. "Well…Maybe I can stay dead this time…" Remus muttered as his vision began to fog. "Die again? No, no, no that will simply not do," A man's deep voice said nearby.

Remus opened his eyes blearily as he looked up. He saw a man dressed in black with blonde hair and sunglasses. "Who…Are you?" Remus said, his voice leaving him. "I am a friend. You may call me Albert Wesker," The man, Wesker, said as he walked over to where Remus lay. "So, I see you have been infected with the G-Virus 001. I thought Birkin made only one…"

"He…Made two…I was given the second…" Remus said, blood gushed from his mouth. Wesker looked down at him then looked at the metal sticking out of Remus' stomach. He leaned forward his gloved hand wrapped around the metal and pulled it free with ease. Remus gritted his teeth in pain as blood gushed forward again. He felt his skin knitting back together and the bleeding ebbed.

Wesker smirked, "I have a deal for you, Remus Jack Birkin. You can stay here and let the U.S. government find you and experiment on your…Unique body. Or, you can come work for me. You will be paid and you will be safe. So long as you are loyal that is."

Remus looked at the man in black and began to think. There was a high chance the U.S. would pick and prod him because of the two viruses in his blood stream or work for Wesker and not get stabbed with needles and probably live to see the day. He hoped Vic, Leon, Claire, Sherry and Ada…Wait…Where was Ada? "Where's Ada Wong? Where did she go…?" Remus gritted as he sat up, clutching the wound in his stomach. "She works for me. She is safe, so have no fears," Wesker said stepping back to give him room.

"Tch, I knew she wasn't telling the truth…Alright, Albert Wesker…You have yourself a new recruit. When do I start?" Remus said, standing up. "Right now," Wesker said, and shook Remus' hand when he stuck it out.

…At Wesker's Headquarters…

"You are not allowed to have contact with anybody outside this instillation, do you understand, Birkin?" Wesker asked, looking at Remus as he lay in the medical ward. Remus nodded slowly as he met Wesker's eyes from behind the sunglasses. "Why are you doing this for me?"

"Because you are a valuable asset to or cause. May I ask you a question, Birkin?"

"Uh, yes, sir. I guess so, sir," Remus said as he pulled himself into a sitting position. "You were a medical student at Oxford, were you not? And you graduated top of the class," Wesker said as he took a set next to the bed and crossed his legs.

"Yes, sir, I did."

"Why did you want to go into the field of medicine?"

"I wanted to help make humanity better, make cures for diseases, and just make the world a better place. That and I wanted to make Uncle Will proud of me. He, Annette, and Sherry are…Were, the only family I had left. Sir, is my cousin alright? I remember her being with Claire and the others…"Remus asked as he tried to hide his grotesque looking arm from his sight. He felt like a freak. A monster, something that shouldn't exist…But he did exist.

"Yes, Sherry Birkin is in safe hands. That and, Birkin, I have a feeling you will like working here," Wesker said, a slow smile spreading across his features. "Now, I'm going to give you a sedative to put you to sleep, you look exhausted," He said as he picked up a syringe from a cabinet in the ward. Remus prickled and the spikes on his arm rose, in defense.

Wesker turned to him and gently took his right arm and pressed the cold needle to his skin. "Calm down, take a deep breath, and look away. You know this won't hurt," Wesker's voice was calming and Remus was slightly amazed to feel his body relaxing and the needle slid into the vein and the world turned in hues of blurred colors…

RESIDENTEVIL

"Since then, I've been working for the Boss," Remus said, being careful not to reveal Wesker's identity to Leon or Luis. Remus found out four years later what Wesker was planning, and Remus had requested to be turned into a field operative instead of the scientist he was. Remus had been loyal to the man without fail. Wesker knew Remus wouldn't betray him, for no amount of money. He had also found out Wesker had taken a sample of his blood while he was out, and had experimented on it.

Remus saw what had resulted in the experiments and was horrified what his blood did to the lab mice. The small white, red eyed mice had gone under fast transformations, turning into hideous little monsters, that soon died, and their body's combusted. The walls of the mice cage was covered in blood and the others soon followed the first one's example. Remus had turned ill and confronted Wesker about it.

Wesker had said it was necessary to see what would happen if Remus' blood ever came into direct contact with another person's blood. Remus had nodded numbly and had returned to his rooms. He had taken out his Glock and put the barrel to his head, finger at the ready on the trigger, ready to blow his head apart. But for some reason he had not pulled the trigger. He had thought of Vic and their future together. If they had children, would they become monsters like him? Or would they be normal, with maybe only an odd eye coloring the only side effect?

He hadn't known, but he wanted to live so he could find out. He had sighed and placed the gun back where it was before he had moved it. "Remus…?" A voice cut through the haze again and his blue and indigo eyes looked back into a set of normal blue eyes. Remus blinked and shook his head. "Sorry, Leon. I was miles away…" Remus said sheepishly. Leon nodded, "It's alright. At least your boss took good care of you. That's all that matters."

"So, Remus, Leon, where to next?" The Spaniard asked looking back at them. "I don't know, but I say we just keep going the way we're going. I got a good feeling this time," Remus said as he walked ahead of Leon. Yes, he lived. Yes, he was a monster, but he accepted the fact because Vic had accepted him regardless. He still had a good job, and he still had true friends. That's what kept him going through his personal Hell.

He had learned to master his unique arm, and used it as well as Leon and Krauser used their knives, better even since he could control everyway it moved. Remus let a smile light up his face. Despite everything, he had lived and thrived. That and he still had a date with Vic when he gets this mission done. Wesker owes him that much at least.

A/N: There we go!! A good bit into the six years that Remus was missing. And for my BETA Tempus321, I did a little picture of Remus dressed up as Nero from Devil May Cry 4.
