Jake hit the ground hard, he cursed and rolled over to his side closing his eyes as debris fell all around him. He heard the distinct roar of the monster that was on the tail. In a flash he thought this was it, he thought his life was done for. Game Over .

Just as suddenly he felt a hand grab him and pull him up onto his knees, looking up he saw Jill standing in front of him, her gun aimed at the monster, her whole body shaking with terror.

'Jake run!' Jill screamed as she helped him up further, Jake didn't need telling twice he jumped to his feet and ran as fast as his legs could carry him, dust and fire surrounded him he barely knew where he was going all he could hear was the pounding of his own heart beat over the thunderous roars of the monster.

He felt like he was running for hours when suddenly Jill pushed him into a side room and bolted the door shut. Then there was silence, except for their heavy breathing. As Jake sighed a sigh of relief Jill suddenly sobbed and fell on the ground. Jake turned around and looked at her, his eyes filled with pity, Jill didn't seem to be the type of person to fall apart at any scary monster, this was something that has psychology damaged her.

'What..' He began but Jill stopped him holding out her hand, Jake looked at her at felt a twinge of resentment alongside admiration. Jill's eyes still held evidence of her tears, but her whole body was rigid again, as is she handed just lost it a moment ago. Her eyes seconds ago held terror but now they were steel, unreadable. She was good.

'This is bad. Worse than I had expected. I don't understand how they managed to create another Nemesis, I thought that virus was wiped out.'

'Nemesis?' Jake questioned, his eyes burning with questions, just what the hell is going on here? And where in the world is Sherry?! Do they have her somewhere else or is that just another trick?

'Nemesis. Created by the T-virus. Deadly. One was used by Umbrella to track down any remaining S.T.A.R.S. members left in Raccoon City. Fortunately only me and Brad remained in Raccoon City at the time of the outbreak, so Chris was safe.'

Jake frowned at the mention of Redfield's name. He was sick of hearing what a hero that man was. To him he was nothing but an ass. Looking at Jill it was obvious she harboured feelings for him, but he has done nothing about it? Yeah clearly an ass. Jake took in the room that they were holed up in. it was a small room, with a small slit for a window, the room was empty except for a table and a chair, papers were scattered around the room. It may have been a poor excuse for an office at one point.

'We have to keep moving.' Jill's voice announced breaking his thoughts 'If there's one thing I remember. It's that it's an excellent tracker.' Jill nodded to a white door on the other side of the small room. Jake nodded and held up his gun that Jill gave him, he signalled to her and grabbed the door handle. Once opening the door Jill jumped out aiming her gun into the dark hallway. Nothing.

With a breath of relief the couple followed the signs on the wall to the basement. Jake reckoned it was a good place to start. Basements always had trouble in them, and where there's trouble, there's usually Sherry.

'Give me a break' Leon groaned as he tried to undo the restraints around his arms. He wished he could see what was going on around him, but he was in total darkness ever since he woke up. He wondered where he was, were Sherry was, Was she close by? Was she okay?

For once in a long time he felt helpless. Wasn't he meant to be the hero who went around saving people? He always came through, although come to think of it he always had a little help from…

CRASH

Leon's heart stopped and he slowed down his breathing hoping to hear anything that could pinpoint the location of whatever that was. It sounded like it was right behind him.

Suddenly the lights were turned on; he was blinded by the sudden light after being surrounded by darkness. He cried out and closed his eyes turning away from the blinding pain.

Laughter, he then heard laughter fill his ears. He squinted up to see a figure standing over him, it seemed to be slim, petite like a woman, and suddenly he knew who it was.

'Ada' He said, he was sure his voice has never been so relieved than it was at that moment. He saw his reaction made her smirk.

'Leon. We have to stop meeting like this.'

Straight to business Leon thought I don't have time for this flirting.

'Where are we?' He asked as Ada bent down to untie his bondage.

'The basement of the Family's experiment facility. Exactly where you were before.'

Leon smirked: 'They are losing their touch, Normally when we are kidnapped we end of halfway across the world surrounded by lava.'

'There might be some lava, don't give up hope.'

'Wait' Leon frowned, 'Do you know where Sherry is?' Ada nodded as she helped pull Leon to his feet.

'Yes. I am not alone in this. The Redfield's are here as well.' Ada replied. Leon frowned at her. Claire and Ada did not see eye to eye on most things. Leon was sure that that was not an easy alliance, but both girls are professionals. The fate of the world comes first, he was sure Ada felt that way too even though her alliance is often clouded.

'This all seems too easy' Leon said, to his surprise Ada laughed.

'Oh Leon, you don't really think they want to keep you two hostage? They plan you getting rescued. Why? I do not know'

'Well I'm tired of these games' He growled, 'Let's go find Sherry'

'Ouch!' Sherry shouted as the 'doctor' stuck a needle into her arm and took out a sample of blood. She frowned, pretty sure that the equipment wasn't sterilised. Not that that should bother her, but it did. She already knew that she didn't mean anything to these people, she was just the G-virus host.

Moments later the man left, Sherry sighed and turned to look around the room again, trying to make sense of where she was, but to no avail. The room was white with no windows. Rooms like this she was used to. Like she was some patient in an asylum waiting on some doctor to cure her.

BANG

Sherry blinked, She turned her head to her right, where the noise came from, suddenly the doors burst open and Claire came running in shotgun in hand.

'Sherry!' She exclaimed when she seen the blonde strapped to the table. Rushing she embraced her quickly and then started to work on the straps holding the blonde in place.

'Oh Claire! What's going on where are we?' She asked. Claire shook her head

'I don't know what their plan was Sherry, but this seems to be either a distraction from something else or a sick joke.'

'What do you mean?' Sherry asked getting up, she rubbed her wrists briefly to get some feeling back into them and walked over to where her weapons where lying.

'No one is around' Claire replied frowning, 'If they wanted to keep you hostage they would have moved you to a different facility, you are just underground, in the basement.'

'Maybe they wanted us all together' A voice interjected, Sherry looked up to see Chris enter the room a hardened expression on his face, he was holding his ear piece in his hands.

'What's wrong is that broken?' Sherry asked, she seen Claire roll her eyes just as Chris went to open his mouth.

'It's Jill she hasn't replied. Her and Jake are upstairs, there were J'avo but they are gone now'

'Jake's here?!' Sherry exclaimed her heart skipping a beat. Chris nodded.

'And I heard a bang' He went on.

'Stop it' Claire scowled over at him, 'Jill will be fine and I am pretty sure that Jake can handle himself as well. We have more important matters to worry about right now. We have to rendezvous with Ada and Leon and find out what in the world is going on.'

'Right' Chris agreed nodding, 'Contact Ada tell her to meet us in the entrance. I'm going to keep trying Jill.'

Sherry nodded, her chest filling up with worry, she hoped that Jake was alright. Where ever he was.

They walked together in silence, the only noise was their breathing and footsteps. Jake decided to try conversation.

'That thing you said earlier, about protecting Sherry because of Wesker. What did you mean?' He asked. Jill seemed to hesitate before she spoke again:

'W-Wesker was partners with William Birkin, Sherry's dad. Together they created the G-virus that Sherry is now a host off. Long story short Wesker wanted the G virus for himself, to create a new world as he often said. He wanted Sherry and stopped at nothing to get her. For her own safety Sherry was isolated from the world up until Wesker was destroyed.'

Jake looked at Jill in horror, 'But was he not killed in 2009'

'Yes.'

'So for that long…?'

'…Yes.'

Jake felt like his insides were going to explode with rage, because of his father Sherry had been made to suffer for most of her life. Because of his father she has been isolated from the world, not able to enjoy the simple pleasures in life and being experimented on like an animal. Suddenly it hit him. Sherry would not want to be with him, why would she? His father was the reason that her life has been destroyed, why would she even want to look at him.

Suddenly Jill stopped in her tracks and looked forward, raising and steading her gun.

Jake turned to see that she was aiming it at a blonde haired girl, petite, short hair and… Sherry?!

'Sherry?!' Jake exclaimed lowering his gun and moving towards her, Jill stuck out her arm blocking his way. Jake growled at her

'What the hell?!'

'Wait!' Jill hissed, but Jake shoved her arm out of the way, with a little more force than necessary but dammit he was pissed, what was Jill doing, this was Sherry for fuck sake!

'J-Jake' Sherry stammered out before she fell to the ground, Jake ran towards her and picked her off the ground, he turned her slightly to see something sticking out of her back. Reminded of the plane crash in Edonia, Jake grabbed the object and yanked if out of her, causing Sherry to scream in pain.

Jake looked at the object in his hand, it was a vial. Shit. As on que Sherry began to writhe in pain and agony, screaming about the pain and begging it to end. Jake tried comforting her grabbing her but he was unable to get a hold her.

'Move.' Jill's voice commanded, Jake looked up to see Jill aiming a gun at Sherry.

'What the fuck are you doing!' He screamed, 'HELP ME!'

Jill shook her head saying something about it not being Sherry, Jake got up and aimed his gun at the brunette. Nothing was going to hurt Sherry. Nothing. No one.

Suddenly a roar echoed behind Jill, she turned around with enough time to shield herself from the Nemesis' blow. Jill put both hands around her shoulders as the Nemesis knocked her aside.

Jill crashed into the wall and winced in pain as she felt the air leave her lungs. Blinking away the black spots and the feeling of nausea she jumped to her feet and aimed the gun on the creatures head. He was going for Jake, she didn't have time to think.

'Hey ugly! You want S.T.A.R.S remember, will come get it!' She fired a round into the creatures head. Instead of killing it like it would a normal zombie, the Nemesis growled a low menacing growl and turned around to face her. Jill glared at it,

Finally he turned around to face her, Jill took off running, hoping to keep the monster on her trail and away from Jake. She ran down the stairs that led to the basement and cursed at how close her and Jake had been to getting here. She barely had time to register where she was going, the hallways were barely lit and seemed to all look the same, she still heard the creatures thundering steps behind her.

Suddenly she was pulled into a room and slammed into a rock, it felt like a rock hard and cold. Except this rock had arms and was holding her against itself. Looking up Jill found herself in the arms of Chris Redfield. Relief filled through her.

'Chris' She breathed, 'Thank goodness! Nemesis is out there! He…'

'He isn't' Chris stated, Jill blinked at him.

'Yes he is I just..'

'No' Chris interrupted for the second time, his voice firm, annoyed. 'I don't know how, or why but the Family have been creating creatures, horrible creatures to torture us.

'What do you mean?'

'Look' Chris said, guiding Jill towards a computer screen, Jill scanned the pages, fully aware that Chris still was pressed up behind her, holding her close to him.

'I…I don't believe it' Jill stammered. Chris was right. It wasn't Nemesis, his genetic code was all wrong, it was the same as a J'avo, a simple shot to the heart would be enough to take him down. What was surprising though was that his strength seemed to be the same.

'Why go through all the trouble though?' Jill asked, 'Why not just create an unstoppable BOW?'

'They seem to be attacking our psyche with these attacks. What's more effective than messing with your head, it seemed Nemesis was the first of these and I am sure he will not be the last.'

'Well, well, well' A voice beamed, Chris and Jill turned around to see Leon smirking at them. They jumped apart. 'Sorry for interrupting' He grinned not looking sorry at all.

'We have to get back to the others.' Chris said glaring at Leon. 'Sherry and all…'

'Oh my God!' Jill exclaimed, 'Jake!'

This was not happening. It couldn't be happening. Jake tried everything to stop the pain Sherry seemed to be in but it wasn't working, she was still writhing in pain. He just decided to sit with her and ride it out. Sherry could heal herself, she would be fine, right? Right?!

Suddenly Sherry's body went limp and she stopped moving. Jake jumped to his feet and turned around to look at her.

'Sherry?' He called, but got no reply. 'Sherry?!' He shouted again louder this time. No reply.

Jake could feel the blood rushing to his ears, he felt a wave of emotions crash around him each bubbling to the surface. Right now he felt anger and began to punch at the wall behind him until he was satisfied he left a mark.

'Ugrh'

A groan from behind him caused him to turn around. His blood ran cold as he saw Sherry rise from the ground, her skin was a pale grey and her eyes were grey, unfocused. She was gone.

Jake decided he would mourn her later, right now he needed to end this and kill the son of a bitch who turned this angel into a monster. He lifted his Samurai edge and aimed it at Sherry, who was slowly walking towards him, mouth hanging out and moaning in hunger.

'I'm sorry my love.' He muttered and fired. The bullet went clean through her skull, blood and other horrible things splattered against the wall. He caught her body as she fell towards the ground.

Tears began to fill his eyes, it was harder than he ever thought it would be. Suddenly he felt as though there was no point in living anymore, a world without Sherry seemed like Hell. He didn't want to be without her. Not if it meant he had to fell like this.

He grabbed the gun lying beside him and pointed it to his head. Planting a kiss on Sherry's hand he placed his fingers on the trigger.

BANG
