Chapter 2: Epiphany I

I am uncertain of how long time has since passed, but I'm quite convinced that wherever I am right now is in the afterlife. Heaven, Hell, Nirvana, reincarnation or whatever meaningless beliefs humans have conjured up to console themselves that death is but another beginning, I never did believe in these pointless convictions because they are merely illusions created by men to fool the ignorant into thinking that by doing good in this life will ultimately determine your fate in the next. Which brings me to yet another reason behind my intention of bringing forced evolution unto the human race. But now that I am gone, I couldn't care less of the detestable cretins lingering in that wretched place many call earth. I am, however, rather curious of this new place I am presently in. I can't, for the life in me, feel anything, despite trying my utmost best to will my body parts to move. Perhaps I no longer have a body, hence the feeling of numbness. Whatever may be, I do not wish to be caught in such peculiar yet burdensome condition. The surrounding is still clothed in darkness, and it makes the situation even worse. Cautiously, I willed my eyes to open, to see what this new place would look like, to see if there really was a heaven or hell. Light started pouring in and my eyes winced as they slowly adjusted to the intense light.

The surrounding slowly came to view and I realized the source of the brilliant light was from the fluorescent light on the tiled ceiling of a white room. Where in god's name am I? As if on cue, my senses were overwhelmed. I could hear the sound of a steady beeping from a nearby monitor; I could feel my heart pounding against my ribcage once more, restored to its former glory. I felt soft cotton against my skin, and I can definitely feel tubes stuck into my body in various places. I tried to move my hands and feet, but they were unresponsive, as if they were foreign to me. Then, the sound of a sliding door opened and a woman came to my view. My mind decided then and there if she does not give me the explanation I wanted, blood will be spilled.

I tried opening my mouth to say something but it felt like I had never used it before. It felt dry and whenever I took a breath, the cold air from the air-conditioning of the room seemed to freeze my airway as if someone had forcefully downed liquid nitrogen into it. The woman muttered something incomprehensible and proceeded to walk to a nearby monitor and entered some sort of code. Just as she finished, the room slowly melted away and darkness was crawling back once again. My head felt as though it weighed a tonne. It was evident that she had given me some sort of sedative. God damn it, woman, whatever it is that you are doing, you had better pray that my condition does not improve or else I will see to it that the last thing you'll feel is my hand ripping your heart out.

My mind wandered off into oblivion once more just as I finished cursing the wench and my vulnerability. Gods were supposed to place others in a state like this, not end up there themselves. It frustrated me that I am completely powerless and dependent. This time, however, I welcomed the darkness with open arms as it takes my mind off of the predicament I am facing.

I was seeing things while I was unconscious. Or maybe they were just dreams or visions, I'm not too certain myself. But what I am aware of is the fact that I am still alive, and that itself, was a hospitable thought. Despite being mostly unconscious, I could slowly feel my body once more. I slipped in and out of consciousness as time crawled by, hearing voices, footsteps, machines humming and the clanking sound of equipments being placed on a metal tray. Perhaps this is what it feels like to be somebody else's guinea pig. I was always the one performing procedures on ill-fated subjects I successfully capture. I suppose karma, whether I believed it or not, has a way of coming back and dropping by for a visit. Whoever's behind all this better have insurance because the moment they turn their backs on me, I shall do everything in my power to ensure that their existence is no longer known. Messing with a god has consequences and I assure you, the consequences will be grim.

Another wave of drowse overcame me and I knew that they had sedated me once more. Are they trying to kill me with sedatives or it's their way of keeping me under control, I haven't the slightest clue. But the next thing I remember was waking up to the sound of someone flipping pages after pages of god knows what.

"I guess it's about time to let you come back."

A male voice said.

I slowly pushed myself out of the bed; my arms trembled as they struggle to support my body. Only then did I realise how weak and feeble my arms had become… What happened to me?

The male voice chuckled.

I vowed to myself if I hear that chuckle one more time, I don't care how frail my body felt, I will seriously tear his inert out and use him as my next test subject. I was in no mood for fun and games and I am definitely not to be trifled with. I turned my head to the direction of the voice and saw a man, sitting on a chair, holding a clip file with quite an amount of paper on it. The man had a pair of spectacles on and was wearing a dark grey collared shirt, not tucked in with a black blazer, and pair straight cut black pants. His golden, blonde hair was unkempt, just as the rest of his clothing was.

"And who might you be?"

I asked with a sarcastic tone, while pushing a few strands of hair back to their place. I knew I shouldn't act hastily and dispose of this man as I usually should, because somehow, this man held the key behind this entire bizarre event. Besides, he might be of good use to me in the near future.

The corner of his lips revealed a smirk as he got out of his seat and casually walked over towards me. I eyed him like a hawk ready to attack its prey.

"You don't know me, do you?"

Note: Hi again, i just wanna thank those who were kind enough to leave me reviews and give my story a chance. *hugs for everyone! XD* I'm sorry that it hasn't developed much cause i still needed to do some research on certain things and i'm still occupied with trying to figure out how to make the story go smoothly without dragging it unnecessarily. What i can tell you is, there won't be YAOI, lovey-dovey stuff going on*coughsmaybecoughs*(after all, this is WESKER we're talking about and i intend to keep him as true to himself like the games as possible and will most likely fail miserably lol) and random pairings. So for those who are expecting Wesker to fall in love with other RE character, i'm sorry to disappoint, but it ain't happening in this story. :( Lastly, thanks for reading and i hope you enjoyed it! ;)
