Chapter: 11

A/N: lol, sorry if Wesker seems like he's having mood swings, just noticed that xD hahaha.

Claire continued to stare at the stationary fire, licking out of it's cage, begging to be released for a widespread. She saw the orange outlining, it's root holding blue with specks of white outlining. Her eyes became stuffy with the heat, having to blink severely times, tears formed ever so often.

I feel so alone...

She looked around, now as bored as ever. Leaning forward , her hands both cupped on each side of her face for support with a pout, she blew raspberry. A strange sound escaped her body. Startled, she looked around in instinct. It escaped again, she looked down to see the culprit was her empty stomach.

Of all times, now?

Nothing seemed edible in the room, so she was at a bump in the road. The only way to get anything and everything she needed was through Wesker, which wasn't a very good option at the moment since their short confrontation.

Maybe wood would taste good.

Claire thought, not wanting to ask anything from the wicked man.

I haven't had water either.

Claire thought, her throat feeling slightly parched after the thought, she looked to see nothing in view just as before. She decided to push the thought from her, knowing it wasn't in her nature to give in easily; she picked the Edgar Allen Poe book that laid strew on the love seat, but the moment she opened the first page, her stomach released a monstrous growl.

Shut up! Claire rolled her eyes ignoring the disturbance it gave her.

She tried to continue her reading but her concentration would be interrupted every few minuets from her hunger, and slight parch. She seriously considered going to Wesker when she began to feel a bit light headed.

But where would I start? I don't even know where he is.

Claire stood up, closing her book in the process.

Might as well start early then. He couldn't have gone far.

She went into the hallways, looking aimisly around, she went towards his bedroom first to find it vacant of anyone, it was just as she left it when she walked out of it this morning.

That leaves one more door.

She walked back into the hallway heading straight towards the door she went through when she got her injury, halting at the door.

He said knock...

Raising her right hand she knocked softly, hoping he wasn't as mad as he was recently, knowing she was probably an annoying fly thats would never leave in his eyes.

The door opened a jar letting Claire inside.

"Care to tell me what you want now?" He sighed clearly entertained by a microscope he gazed into, every now and then jotting down notes on a notebook next to him.

Claire clearly at lose of words to speak for herself, he looked up with a smug, clearly annoyed with her silence.

"Well... I haven't got all day Ms. Redfield."

Just as Claire opened her mouth to speak, her stomach decided to speak for her and let its growl purr out. Wesker looked to her stomach and smirked.

"Ah I see now." He said, then continued with his work, as if the sound never happened.

"So that's it?" Claire asked, after five minuets of mixed growls and pen meeting paper. Wesker set his pen down and walked towards the door, Claire following behind.

"Well dear heart, since I wasn't expecting to have company here, I don't have any food." He said going back into his study, grabbing his laptop.

"So wait, you don't eat?" She asked perplexed with his healthy condition, but he wasn't really human, he looked human, had all the characteristics, save for his eyes, he had immense strength, stealth, and intelligence.

"Not necessarily," he continued to talk going into his room grabbing a coat.

"I can just go through long periods of time without needing much the average human would." He pulled a black coat on both arms, heading straight towards the exit door.

"Wait, where are we going?" Claire asked pausing at the door, looking at him.

"You are famished, no?" He asked, continuing to walk ahead of Claire.

"Well yeah-"

"We're going to fix that." Claire rushed to his side just as the elevator opened.

Chris continued to look at the video in disbelief.

How could something take that video out so fast with even giving the slightest hint who?

He looked over and over for the past 7 hours, the images attached to his mind, but he just had to keep witnessing the silhouette of whatever took his baby sister. Every time the video went out, he would pull on his hair.

If I could just get one more second.

He yelled at himself. It hurt not knowing, he knew that much.

"Chris maybe you should take a break." Jill said holding the VCR control away from him.

"Just one more time, I just need to make sure." He said, distress was clearly shown in his features.

"That's what you said ten minuets ago."

"Jill, I just have to see it one more time." Begging, Jill controlled the video this time, just as all the other times, it showed the same image a before just as the black and white screen showed.

"This is close to nothing." Chris said, sighing, he felt like a mess and was damn sure he looked like one too.

"It's better than nothing," Jill set the remote down on her left side.

"Chris, you worry to much about Claire, she is a amazing fighter, she got through raccoon city, and rockfort island, she isn't a person to give up, she'll be okay until we find her. The one thing I'm sure she wouldn't want you to do is be worried she'll get hurt. If she can handle those things, I'm sure she can handle anything." Jill said grabbing Chris's hand in comfort.

"The thing is, she's all I have left." Chris softly replied.

"You're all she has too, she knows that, that's why she's probably trying her best to get back to you." Jill replied, giving a comforting pat on his hand.

"I'm going to find her Jill, even if it kills me." Chris said, staring straight aimisly.

"You look like you haven't eaten in weeks, I cooked breakfast if you want any." Jill have a soft smile helping Chris up.

"Yeah just what I need, food poisoning." Chris joked.

Wesker lead Claire what seemed to be a garage, which held a sleek black car, it's brand being foreign to her.

Claire paused, arching her eyebrow at the sight. The alarm to unlock sounded, making a clicking sound, Wesker opening the passenger door at the same time. Claire slowly entered the car, the interior was breath taking actually, the smell of leather intoxicating her smell, she absolutely adored every second of it.

Wesker already entered the drivers side; already beginning to pulling out of the garage but it wasn't an ordinary drive way you would expect, it was a sort of hidden cave that lead to a forest instead.

Claire looked out in amazement of the green shrubs, trees that filled the lonely street. Fog was covered on the dirt grounds but little on the road, it looked so deserted but yet so beautiful, somewhere where human activity wasn't so vastly operated as compared to other areas.

Little rain droplets landed every now and then on the windows. It didn't seem like something so beautiful and peaceful existed so close to a dangerous, masochist man.

Life is full of surprises, that's for sure.

"Enjoying the view?" He asked, eyes still on the road.

"Definitely..." Claire breathed out, a smirked Wesker now looked towards her.

"Nothing compares to nature's beauty, as you've witnessed yourself."

"That's for sure." Claire continued to look out of the window in amazement, an elk galloped but was soon out run by the sleek black car.

The more Wesker continued down the road, the less trees were being shown and the more buildings came into view, soon it was just a few trees with only the purpose to complement the houses. It's wasn't a very large town, just a small, comfy area. It was more than likely that everyone that populated the area knew each other one way or another.

"Have you ever been here?" Claire asked when he paused at a stop light.

"Only a few times." He settled waiting for the light to switch. Claire deepened in the leather seat; Wesker taking notice.

"The towns people won't say much, and it's also not likely you'll see them again in your life time."

Claire colour faded.

Is he planing to kill them all?

She saw children playing in a front yard, just as the light turned green, the children were called inside.

The car made a halt and Claire looked up to see words that she couldn't even think to pronounce. She made a smug look and turned up when she heard the cars door open.

"You look ill." Wesker stated after Claire hopped out of the car that stood out from the whole town.

"I'm fine."

Walking through the doors, it held a restaurant, a woman waited at the reception, smiling the customer friendly smile, but spoke a different language.

"Bonjour, une table pour deux?"

'Welcome table for two?'

"Oui."

'Yes.'

Wesker replied back, Claire looked astonished between the two.

"D'accord, un moment s'il-vous-plaît."

'Okay, be back in one moment.'

She replied walking away from them, but was back sooner than expected.

"Ça devrait prendre que quelques minutes."

'It might be a few minuets.'

Wesker nodded his head in agreement and turned towards Claire.

"It seems that it will be a few minuets dear heart, you should sit." He said already making his way to a comfortable chair.

Claire did as told, and looked to see the woman with curiosity clearly in her eyes.

" Est-ce que vous sortez ensemble?"

'Are you two dating?'

She asked her eyes darting from Claire to Wesker. Claire looked back and saw Wesker smirking. Turning back seeing the woman had a gleeful smile on her face.

"I don't understand..." Claire said giving a confused stare to the overly excited woman. The woman paused and began to make hand motions.

"Uh..." She said, she pointed at Wesker and then back to Claire.

"Together?" She struggled to say, giving Claire a shocked expression.

"No! No no no no no." Claire said continually, giving a nervous awkward smile smile.

"Vraiment? Alors pourquoi êtes-vous ensemble?"

'Really? Why are you two together then?'

She said, her eyebrow arching slightly.

"Um, I really don't-" Claire was cut off my Wesker, velvet voice over powering hers.

"Elle veut dire que nous sommes engagés."

'She means to say that we are committed'

He spoke fluently, calmly standing behind Claire now, the woman giving a even brighter smile.

"Je suis très heureuse pour vous deux!"

'I am very happy for you two.'

She spoke happily, nodding her head up and down, her smile making the sides of her eyes crinkle in joy. She paused and looked to the side.

"Votre table est prête, suivez-moi s'il-vous-plaît."

'Your table is ready, let me show you the way.'
