Plague of Darkness

A/N: Thank you for the reviews to all who have! Enjoy this new chapter.

Krauser

"Sir, I have some news." Saddler stopped speaking Spanish to the small little man, and turned around to face Krauser. Krauser's expression stayed blank and emotionless.

"The American Agent was still alive after you called off the attack." Saddler stopped smiling immediately. The little man, Salazaar, slowly moved away. Saddler began to step down to Krauser's level.

"How can that be possible?" he said quietly.

"Sir, I don't know, but I know who he is. His name is Leon Scott Kennedy, and he was involved with the incident in Raccoon City six years ago. He survived, and is working for the President." Saddler waved his hand impatiently and moved to the side of the church.

"Do we have a plan B?" asked Saddler, directing it at Salazaar. Salazaar took the hint and then cleared his throat.

"We have an El Gigante and a horde of Ganados waiting for Mr. Kennedy…all he has to do is choose one of the gates, and one of them is sure to kill him. We also have the Bella Sisters waiting for him." Saddler grinned, and faced his comrade.

"Good work. That should kill him, if not it should hold him back long enough to gather our forces. Judging by our reports it seems he is heading to the Castle. If he gets close, send Mendez- ask him to wait at the warehouse for me." Salazaar nodded, and then scuttled out of the Church. One of his robed servants awaited him, and opened the door. Krauser turned his attention back to Saddler.

"Well, we must head to the Castle ourselves. We will go back to Del Lago's lake and take a motorboat around to the riverside cliff at the bottom of the castle. You will escort me and I will then go to the island. We must make haste." Krauser nodded and began to walk towards the front doors of the church. Saddler was behind him. Krauser smiled and opened the door.

Leon

"Ashley! Duck!" The giant swung his arm over. Leon grabbed Ashley and shoved her down as the arm barely pissed her head. It roared and then began to stomp towards them. Leon pulled out his shotgun and aimed for the eyes. He fired, and the giant roared in pain, clutching its face as the shotgun bullets burned him. Ashley jumped out of the way as Leon pulled out his knife and began to sprint up to it. He jumped onto his back and then began to slash wildly at the parasite writhing in its back.

"Ashley! Get out of the way!" Ashley nodded and ran under the giants legs as it began to regain control. Leon jumped off its back and began to sprint after Ashley to the chained door. It shook its head and looked for its attackers. Leon sheathed his knife and then pulled out his pistol. He shot each chain and then kicked down the door quickly. Ashley ran behind him and through the door.

"Quickly! Run to the other wall!" Leon and Ashley sprinted when suddenly there was a huge crash behind them. The giant troll had knocked over the wall completely. Leon swore and sprinted even faster. His heart was beginning to hurt. He ran to the door and sprayed it again with a bucket of TMP rounds, the chains breaking. Ashley pushed down the door and ran through. They came to a set of double doors. Leon ran to them and tried the door, but it was locked.

"Shit!" he swore angrily. He looked around and then began to sprint forward. The troll was now beginning to pick up houses and throw them.

"Ashley! In the dumpster!" he yelled. She nodded and ducked into the dumpster. The troll was picking up another house when suddenly Leon caught a flashing object in the dirt. It was the key to the gate.

"Hey you stupid idiot!" he yelled. The troll turned to him angrily and chucked the house in his direction. Leon swore and jumped out of the way. The contents of the house exploded on the wall beside him. He saw the key and began to sprint towards it. The giant was now walking towards him. Leon slung out his TMP and slid under his legs, firing at the thighs. The giant fell to the ground, clutching its bloody legs. Leon grabbed the key and turned. The thing in its back was thrashing. Leon aimed the TMP and unloaded a full clip in it. The bullet slapped the thrashing thing. Suddenly the giant jumped up and grabbed its head, roared, and fell to the ground. Leon fell to his knees as his heart began to wrench in pain. Ashley ran to his side.

"Leon! Are you alright?" Leon sighed, grunting, hand to his chest.

"I'm fine…I'll live. C'mon, let's go."

Ada

Ada entered the cabin, and found blood and corpses all over the floor and on the stairs. She stepped over a headless Ganado corpse and walked to the fire place. Leon had been here, but she didn't know where he was heading. She needed to find him, and fast. Ada turned around, and found Luis inside the cabin.

"Luis!" she said, grinning. He smiled, and then put his hands on his hips, shrugging at the corpses on the floor.

"Ada, how is it going?" Ada shrugged, and then pulled out her Punisher. She jammed a new clip into the chamber, and stuck it back in the holster.

"Not bad. Where is Leon?" Luis shrugged, and sat in one of the chairs and put his feet on the desk.

"We fought these Ganados here. I think he went to a castle somewhere near here, I had to pick up some stuff before I headed after them. I'm just trying to catch up. He should be passing the crossroads now, those have been abandoned for years…" Ada walked up to Luis and then put her hands on the table.

"Crossroads? Where?" Luis took out a smoke and lit it with his lighter. He took a drag and then exhaled the smoke.

"Behind this cabin, though there is a faster way to get through." Luis put his hands on his hips and his cigarette in his mouth and began to pace the room, sighing.

"My grandfather used to live in this area. He was a miner, and he built secret passages all around the place. I use those to get around."

"Do you have what I need?" pressed Ada.

"No, Saddler is carrying it with him. I can get close, but I need more time. He's going to the castle, or probably is there right now. I can get it from him then, just as long as he doesn't find out my real intentions. All of the Ganado are his spies, they tell him everything." Ada sighed, and began to pace.

"Wesker needs the sample soon, probably by tomorrow. A helicopter will be picking me up."

"Ada, I can get it. Don't worry," said Luis. He stood up and pulled out his Red 9 and then patted the chamber, smiling.

"I can get through, don't worry. You'll get what you need." Ada smiled, and then left the room.

I'd better.
