Chapter 19

(Please take it easy on my English. It is my second language.)

Many large helicopters were moving closer to the two buildings.

"Tell your men not to get in the way," General Zhao said after he walked to beside General Wong who was not too far from himself.

General Wong quickly used radio to signal the three Z-10 attack choppers moving away from the Agency building.

"Let the show begin," General Zhao had a cocky smile on his face, as if he was the director of a big show. "Pull your useless troops out of the building, if there are any of them still alive. They will only get in my men's way".

"There is nothing to be proud of. Your Special Forces were not trained by you. Every one of your commandos was the best soldier picked out of the troops from all over the country include mine," General Wong couldn't stand General Zhao's cocky attitude

"That is the point. We only picked one out of every ten thousand soldiers, and only I am capable of commanding the best of the best".

Soon, some of the many large helicopters moved to right above the two buildings. Many ropes were dropped, Special Force commandos were sliding down one after another onto the roofs. Every one of them was wearing black combat uniform, with black body armor, and a full head black helmet which had a piece of color plastic covering the face. It made their faces not visible. And they were carrying big black guns on their backs while they were on the ropes.

One of the large helicopters moved closer to the Generals. A squad of commandos came down from the ropes just 20 meters away from them. After the last two commandos had landed onto the ground, they walked forward toward the Generals.

"Colonel Huang reports to duty!" A commando who looked like in charge gave a salute to General Zhao when he had arrived just 2 meters away.

"General Wong, I am glad you are ok," Another commando beside him said.

General Wong took a look at him. This commando's face was blocked by the plastic from the full head helmet just like all the others, but his voice was so familiar.

"General, it's me," The commando lifted the plastic cover. He was Colonel Tao.

"Colonel Tao? Since when? I thought you declined the offer to join General Zhao's Special Forces!" General Wong couldn't believe what he saw. "I did not even get your transfer report".

"General, I am not a part of their Special Forces. Yes, I declined General Zhao's offer because I wanted to serve under you. Just over one hour ago, they told me your base was under attack. So I temporary joined them and come to your aid," Colonel Tao replied

"Ah, I see," General Wong relieved a lot after what he heard.

"He will join us. After this operation, I am sure he will no longer be able to stand to work with your useless troops," General Zhao laughed. Neither General Wong nor Colonel Tao said a word.

More and more helicopters dropped off loads and loads of commandos. Only the first groups were dropped onto the roofs. For the next groups of commandos, they were sliding down from the ropes beside the walls and windows of the top floor right below the roof. Every one of them broke a window and jumped into the buildings directly from the ropes. The next groups were sliding down the rope to the second highest floor, and all of them did the same thing to the windows before they jumped in. More and more groups were dropped down, and every group was dropped one floor below the last group. Many windows of the buildings were broken by them.

It was not long before some groups of commandos were sliding down from the ropes and started to enter the second floor which was only one floor above the ground level. Same thing, they broke the windows and jumped into the building directly from the ropes.

"Was it really necessary to break that many windows on every floor? Can't they just use the main entrance?" The soldiers surrounding the Agency building talked each other.

"Humph! They are just pretending to be cool. Stupid Special Forces think they are so special. I can do that too, you know".

Then suddenly, one of the commandos must have miscalculated. He kicked at a window after he let go of the rope, but he was rebounded and dropped down from the second floor onto the stairs right in front of the main entrance of the Agency building. For a few seconds, he was lying on the stairs facing the ground.

"HaHaHa, Special Force my ass," Many General Wong's soldiers in front of the main entrance laughed out loud.

The commando stood up. He raised both arms while facing the troops in front of the building.

"I am ok!" He shouted.

He only made everyone laughed out louder.

General Wong turned his face to look at General Zhao. General Zhao was shaking his head. He felt being humiliated.

The commando turned around and walked closer to the wall. The rope he was sliding down from was still there about 10 feet above the ground. It was slightly moving around because it was from a chopper. The commando jumped a few times tried to catch the moving rope. He missed it every time.

"Hahahaha," The troops in front of the entrance were still laughing at this dumb commando. They felt like watching a monkey show.

After five to six failed tries, the commando moved back a few steps. He made a rush at the wall. The moment he arrived in front of the building, he stepped onto the wall and walked onto it. Two quick steps walking on the wall, he made a jump upwards while extended out both hands toward the rope. He got it this time. Immediately followed by a quick flip, he was inside the window on the second floor already. He turned around and stood in front of the window.

"See? I got it!" He shouted at the troops down there while waving his hand.

General Zhao used a finger to signal Colonel Huang to come closer. Colonel Huang obeyed.

"What is it, General?"

"Get this guy fired tomorrow. Transfer him back to whichever unit he came from," General Zhao said angrily.

"Yes, General. I am really sorry, it was my fault. He was a new recruit just transferred from the 37th infantry division 2 days ago," Colonel Huang obviously felt humiliated as well, since that funny guy was recruited by himself.

In a few minutes, several hundreds commandos were directly dropped into every floor above the ground level of both buildings. They must have decided to sweep through the entire buildings from the top to the bottom. Most of the helicopters had moved away to park onto the heliports. A few attack helicopters once again moved closer, with their lights directed onto the buildings' windows.

"Since I am here, I'd like to join the actions," Colonel Tao said.

"Be my guest," General Zhao replied without even looking at him.

"Good luck, and be careful. As you probably already knew, the intruders are not humans," General Wong told Colonel Tao.

"Yes, we already knew. Thank you, General, I will be careful," Colonel Tao pulled down the plastic cover on the helmet to cover his face and lifted his assault rifle, before he walked alone toward the main entrance of the building next to the Agency headquarter.

"What a waste of such elite soldier under your incapable command," General Zhao looked at General Wong, but General Wong ignored his new insult.

Ada and Sherry were carrying Fong Ling walking up from the underground levels. The elevators were functional in this building since the power was not cut, but they knew it would be a bad idea to use them during such circumstances. They could hear clearly the many helicopters had moved away from the building.

Suddenly, Ada's communicator rang. It was General Wong.

"Yes, dad?"

" Ada, I am glad you had finally left the Agency headquarter. But General Zhao's commandos have arrived. They are already inside your building".

"I know, dad".

"Did you get the girl?"

"Yes. And she is not who you think. Her name is Sherry Birkin, the daughter of William Birkin. She was only 12-year-old during Raccoon City outbreak. Both Leon and I had met her back then. Leon was supporting her for months before she went missing. She is not bad at all. In fact, she is a good hearted little girl, who is simply grateful for her 'Uncle' Wesker's care. Now she knows everything about me".

"Oh? What do you really want to tell me, Ada?"

"General Zhao had tortured her in the last 3 days. She is very weak, tired, and starving. I am taking her home. Leon would be so glad to see her again. Don't worry dad, I know I can trust her".

"If you say so," General Wong trusted Ada's instinct since she was a highly trained spy. "There is one problem. We have just received word...There is a T-virus outbreak underway in Sand City".

"What?"

"It looks there were creatures being released in the city as well. It is not safe to go home. The infection in the city is spreading as we speak, although it is still in the very early stage".

"Mom and Leon are still at home. We should evacuate them immediately!" Ada was getting really worried.

"Unfortunately, just a short moment ago the Forbidden City high command had just given the order of not to let anyone leave Sand City in order to contain the infection".

"That sucks!"

"Yes! But they were right about the quarantine procedure. We can't just let everyone move onto the next cities. I will try to convince the high command to set up a temporary refugee camp somewhere outside Sand City. After all, T-virus hosts can't live more than 10 days in the longest cases. We could evacuate everyone who seems normal to the refugee camp for temporary quarantine before let them go if they are not infected".

"Yes, please do that, dad. There are 300,000 people in Sand City. We can't just leave them to die! Meanwhile, there is one more reason for me to go home. Mom can use two super soldiers to protect her," Ada said. " Leon can use some help too".

"I guess. Please be careful," General Wong said "The soldiers outside your building were cleared, but do not come out of the front gate because General Zhao can still see you from this direction".

"Ok, dad".

"One more thing, since the girl already knew your background, why don't you just take a helicopter to go home? I will order a pilot be ready for you two at heliport #73".

"That will be great! Thank you very much, dad!"

"Just please take care mom and yourself, I have to end this phone conversation for now".

"Talk to you later," Ada switched off the communicator.

"Who was that?" Sherry did not understand what Ada just said because it was Chinese.

"My dad. He is a General, the commander of this base," Ada replied

"Cool!"

"We need to be really careful from now on. The commandos are already inside the building, but please do not kill any of them. After all, they are just the soldiers following orders".

"Ok". It was really unnecessary, since Sherry had never killed a single human. She had only killed mutated monsters, Ganados, zombies. Every time she had come across normal humans, she only knocked them out if they were trying to harm her.

It took them just two more minutes to reach the ground level floor. There was nobody in the lobby. So they put down Fong Ling right inside front gate. They could see the troops around the Agency building from the glass doors, although the troops had some distance from their building.

Sherry took out Fong Ling's necklace from her own pocket. After she put it into the still unconscious Fong Ling's hand, Sherry helped Fong Ling forming a fist with both hands to hold the necklace.

"Everything will be alright," Sherry said to the unconscious Fong Ling.

"Don't move! Turn around slowly!" Suddenly a man's voice came from behind.

After Ada and Sherry had turned around, they saw two masked commandos geared in pure black were just 15 meters away. They must have been hiding the whole time. As the two commandos slowly moved to just about 10 meters away, each of them was pointing an assault rifle at them. Both Ada and Sherry had a green dot on their chests.

"What do you think you are doing? I am Agent Wong of M.S.S., and I am the daughter of General Wong!" Ada shouted at them. She wanted to give a try on avoiding the fight.

"We know. You must hand over the girl. General Zhao's order. There is nothing personal".

"The council had agreed to let me take the girl. They outrank General Zhao!" Ada still tried to argue her way out of this.

"Sorry, we only follow the direct orders of General Zhao," The two commandos obviously were not listening.

"Well, so General Zhao had told you to bring her back alive. Why are you pointing guns at us?" Ada now knew the fight couldn't be avoided if she wanted to get Sherry out.

"She is a super soldier. She'll live".

"What about me? I am General Wong's daughter! You can't shoot me!"

"You are right, Miss Wong," The commando who was aiming at Ada moved his laser beam away and lowered his assault rifle to point at the ground instead.

As soon as the commando's gun was no longer pointing at her, in less than a quarter of a second, Ada had already moved across the 10 meters distance. She launched a kick toward the commando's chest just as the commando raised his assault rifle for a defensive block.

Ada's kick was blocked by the assault rifle, but the huge force of her super soldier strength and knocked the commando backwards. The commando flew back 3 meters and hit his back onto the wall heavily. Just as he was rebounded forward from the wall, Ada had already moved in front of him again. Another kick made the commando hit his back onto the wall really hard. The commando rebounded forward for the second time, but he was once again hit by another kick and pushed against the wall really hard.

The other commando who was pointing the gun at Sherry was surprised by Ada. Just as he turned his face to look at Ada and the other commando's direction for a very short moment, Sherry had moved across the 10 meters distance and arrived right in front of him. By the time the second commando turned his face back, Sherry had knocked his assault rifle out of his hands while launched a kick toward his chest. The commando quickly crossed both arms in front of his chest for a defensive block. Sherry's foot hit his arms. The commando too was pushed backwards, but there was no wall behind him. He stepped back 2 steps before lost his balance completely and dropped onto the ground. He slide through the ground for another 4 meters before stopped. In a split second, the second commando already jumped onto his feet directly from the lying position just as Sherry's second kick was toward him. This time, the commando slanted his body and dodged the kick.

Sherry was not as fast as Ada to begin with, since she did not receive the same kind of martial arts training. The 3 days' torture had greatly weakened her. Even though she was still far beyond normal humans' speed, the commando had dodged her next three kicks in a row.

Just as the commando was about to dodge another kick from Sherry, he was hit by a hand from behind really hard. He fell forward and hit Sherry's incoming foot. He collapsed into unconscious instantly after rebounded backward by Sherry's kick. It was Ada who attacked him from the behind, since she had already done with the other commando.

"Nice kick," Ada smiled at Sherry and tried to compliment her.

"I couldn't do it without you. Thank you for the help. You weren't kidding, they are tough," Sherry was being honest and modest.

Both commandos were knocked unconscious inside the lobby.

"Let's take their uniforms. We can walk right out of here no problem," Ada suggested.

"Sure, it's a good idea," Sherry looked at Ada, and both of them laughed.

The two of them each dragged an unconscious commando toward a room on one side of the lobby. They closed the door behind them.

Once inside the small room where there was only one desk, the two women started to take off the two commandos' gears, including their full head helmets, their body armors, their black uniforms, their combat gloves and shoes, plus their weapons and "toys".

The two commandos were only in white underwear after the two women took away everything. Both women were laughed at each other about what they were doing. After they finished taking the gears off the commandos, both Ada and Sherry started to undress themselves. Ada was never wearing any bra under her butterfly red dress, but she got black panties. Sherry was completely nude once she took off her tight black suit.

Just as they were about to put on the uniforms of the commandos, the door was pushed by someone from the outside. There was no footstep or any noise to warn them in advance. Ada immediately jumped and hid herself right above the door by pushing her arms and legs against the walls and ceiling in the corner. Sherry quickly jumped behind the desk just as the door was opened from the outside.

Two more commandos were right outside the door. Their assault rifles' laser beams were pointed right on the desk where Sherry hid. The door was opened 90 degree and hit the wall at its right.

"Come out!" The commandos ordered. They obviously had seen something jumped to behind the desk the moment they opened the door, although they really did not see it clearly what that was.

Sherry was sitting on the floor against the desk, and she was facing the opposite direction of the door. She was completely nude since she had just taken off the only layer of clothes she was wearing. She did not understand Chinese, but she could guess the commandos saw her just as she had disappeared behind the desk. She slowed her breaths and not moving a muscle. She was very nervous.

Ada was right above the doorway from inside, and she was only wearing panties. She couldn't see the commandos since they were still outside. The commandos couldn't see her either. Both of their attentions were still on the desk where Sherry was hiding.

"Come out now, we saw you!" They ordered again, although they really did not see it was Sherry. "We will open fire if you don't stand up right now!"

"I wish they could just walk in. So I could knock them out from the above the moment they entered the door," Ada thought, but the two commandos stayed outside.

One of the commandos fired 3 shots at the desk. It penetrated the desk and made a line of bullet hole through the desk right beside Sherry's right shoulder. Sherry was still not moving. Another 3 shots were fired, and they made another line of holes through the desk beside Sherry's left shoulder. Sherry now realized they were warning her, and those two commandos obviously knew her hiding position. They were purposely shooting at both sides of her, and they could have shot her if they wanted to. Sherry unwillingly stood up slowly from behind the desk, with both arms crossing her chest.

"Wow!" The commandos were amazed by the view.

Sherry did not have a single piece of cloth on her, although all her important parts were blocked. Her arms were crossing her chest to cover her breasts, and the desk was quite high which just at the right place to block her lower body, although it was easy to tell she was not wearing anything down there either.

The two commandos stopped for a few seconds before they looked at each other and laughed. They knew Sherry was the girl they were ordered to bring in, but they totally did not expect she would show up completely nude. The first two unconscious commandos were lying in the corner at the left of the door, so they could not be seen by the two commandos outside. The two new commandos had no idea why Sherry would take off all her clothes.

One of the commandos used two fingers to signal Sherry to walk out of the room. Since he knew Sherry couldn't speak Chinese.

Poor Sherry still had her arms covering her breasts while standing behind the desk. She looked at the commandos, and she shook her head a few times as refusal to walk out.

The commando waved his hand again to tell Sherry to come out. Sherry shook her head again to refuse. There was just no way for her to walk out like this. She was too shy to let some men see her naked. Her pretty face was very flushed, and her eyes were filled with embarrassment.

"I guess I will have to go in to drag her out," One commando said to the other.

"Go ahead. Just don't get yourself knocked out, she is a super soldier," The other commando replied with sarcasm

"Yeah right. Super soldier my ass. I am the super soldier here!"

One commando started to walk forward, while the other one still held assault rifle with his laser beam pointed on Sherry's exposed stomach.

The moment the commando had entered the doorway, Ada punched at his head from the above. Amazingly the commando must have heard the sound of Ada's fist coming through the air, because he suddenly crouched down really quick and made Ada's fist out of reach. But it was not over, Ada's foot stepped down from the above without a delay after the missing punch. Her leg was longer than the arm, so the commando was stepped on the head really hard, and he collapsed onto the ground as Ada pulled back up her leg.

Immediately the commando outside the door opened fire at the wall above the door. Ada already knew it would happen. She had already pushed herself away and landed beside the door. Sherry quickly lowered herself to take cover behind the desk. After about 15 shots, the wall above the door was full of bullet holes.

"I need some help in the lobby quickly". He said on the radio

The commando stopped firing, and he took out a flash grenade. It looked like although he had called for backup, he still thought so highly of himself. He wanted to take the credit. After he removed the fuse ring on the flash grenade, he tossed it into the room and turned his head while closed his eyes the moment before the flash grenade set off. After he opened his eyes, he quickly rushed into the room.

Ada saw the flash grenade came in. She had quickly closed her eyes as well right before the bright flash. She was standing at left of the door before the commando stepped in. As soon as the commando stepped into the door, he turned to the left. The moment he looked at the left, he saw a fist coming and it was getting bigger in his view. In a split second, Ada had punched him in the face with one fist, while the other arm of her was crossing her chest to block the view. The commando did not really see anything other than a fist before he was hit. The piece of plastic covering his face was completely smashed by the punch. The commando was pushed back by Ada's punching force, and he hit his back on the door heavily. But that was not it. Suddenly the big desk was rushing at him. Sherry had pushed the desk toward the door really hard with all her strength, since she had heard the commando stepped in. The desk hit the commando, and pushed him flying out of the door into the hall. He too was knocked unconscious.

"Nice!" Ada looked at Sherry who was still really blushed.

"Quickly, more of them are coming. He had asked for help on the radio. Hurry get dressed," Ada urged Sherry.

There was no need to tell Sherry. She was already embarrassed so much for being nude in front of the commandos just now, although none of the men had seen her sensitive parts.

The two women quickly dressed themselves up with the commandos' gears as fast as they could. Their movements were so fast, it only took them less than 40 seconds to put on everything, including the black combat uniforms, the black body armors, the black helmets, the black gloves. Sherry was still wearing her own shoes, since they were not much different from the commandos'. Ada had to ditch her high heels, because what kind of commando would wear full commando gears while in high heels? The commando's shoes were too big for her cute little feet, but then again she had no choice. The two women quickly put on the weapons, which included machine pistols, backup pistols, knives, grenades, and a zip line launcher which was comparable to Ada's grappling gun. They each picked up one assault rifle before stepped out of the room.

With the full combat gears of the commandos, and with their faces being covered by the piece of plastic mask on the helmet, they really looked like two cool looking commandos now. Nobody could even tell they were women without hearing them talking. The two women quickly left the lobby and moving toward the opposite side of the building.

By the time the two of them had passed a different hall, they noticed there was one stairs coming from the second floor at their left, while just 15 meters ahead there was another stairs coming from the basements. Ada and Sherry quickly passed the stairs at their left just as two commandos walked down from upstairs in silent steps. The two commandos saw the two women, but they did not pay much attention since the women looked just like them. So they turned to the direction of the lobby. Just as Ada and Sherry thought they were going to be fine.

Suddenly,

"Stop!" a voice coming from the right.

Another commando had come up from the stairs from the basement, and he was just 3 meters at right of the two women.

The two commandos who had just passed them from the left had stopped their steps, and they had turned around to look at their direction. They were only 15 meters behind.

"Where do you think you two are going? Didn't you hear someone need help in the lobby?" The commando at their right questioned them.

The two women stopped their steps, but they did not reply, since they knew their voices would instantly expose them. Apparently there was no woman in General Zhao's Special Forces.

As they turned their heads to the right, they noticed this commando was wearing a rank of Colonel. He must be in charge.

Both women did not even turn around their bodies. Ada was standing at Sherry's left. With all thee commando's view being blocked, Ada used a finger to signal Sherry to take the Colonel at right, while herself would be going for the two commandos 15 meters behind them.

"I am talking to you!" The Colonel asked again. He was demanding an answer.

In a flash, Ada turned around rushing toward the two commandos 15 meters away. Immediately Sherry too turned to her right rushing at the Colonel just 3 meters away. They wanted to knock all the commandos out without killing them, just like they did with the first four.

In less than half a second, Ada was already in front of the two commandos just as both of them had raised their guns…

Sherry launched a whirling kick at the Colonel's face as she was approaching him. To her surprise, the colonel simply blocked her leg with his assault rifle. The Colonel was holding the assault rifle with both hands horizontally in front of his face, while Sherry's foot was on the top of the rifle. As Sherry had only one leg standing, the Colonel suddenly pushed the rifle forward. Since Sherry's the other foot was still on the top of the rifle, she dropped onto the ground on her back.

"Don't move!" The Colonel moved closer with his assault rifle pointing at Sherry who was lying on the ground.

A lighting fast kick while still lying on the ground, Sherry removed the assault rifle from the approaching Colonel's hands. Followed by a back flip with the support of her hands, Sherry was on her feet four meters away facing the Colonel.

Now both Sherry and the Colonel stood face to face in fighting postures.

"Who are you?" The Colonel asked.

Of course Sherry wouldn't talk to him since she couldn't even understand what he was saying. Sherry quickly launched another attack. She did a high jump kicking. The moment before Sherry could hit her target, the Colonel had turned his body by 90 degree to the left. Sherry missed him completely and landed 3 meters at his left. The moment Sherry had landed, she "rebounded" back toward the Colonel and she did a whirling kick while her whole body was in the air. Her leg was kicking toward the Colonel's chest who was still 90 degree facing another direction. The Colonel bent his body backwards. His upper body formed a 90 degree angle with his legs, which allowed him to dodge the new kick perfectly. The moment Sherry landed onto the floor again, the Colonel had launched a kick of his own. Sherry blocked it with both forearms, but the force of the kicking had made her stepped back three times.

The Colonel did not stop for even a short moment. He launched another attack. It was a chain of kicks which each kick not only attack the target but also moved a step forward toward Sherry who was stepping backwards. Sherry was forced to move backwards while trying to avoid the chain kicks. She dodged and blocked most of them, but the last kick hit her on the shoulder. She was wearing a commando's body armor which had protected her, but she was knocked onto the ground by the kicking force. Just as Sherry jumped onto her feet, another kick on her chest once again knocked her onto her back. She tried to stand up for the second time. This time just as she was in a crouching position, the Colonel had moved closer and locked the fingers of his right hand onto Sherry's neck. He pushed her down and pressed her against the floor. At the same time, his left knee had pressed Sherry's right arm against the ground, while his right knee pressed on Sherry's both thighs. His fingers were holding her neck with the shape of an eagle claw. Sherry couldn't breath. The hand on her neck had incredible force. She tried to push him away, but only found her force resulted more stress on her own neck. She punched the Colonel's chest, but he had bullet-proof body armor for protection. She quickly punched the Colonel's right arm instead. The moment her fist impacted the Colonel's arm, she felt like she was punching against iron even though that arm was not protected by body armor. After punched the Colonel's arm repeatedly, that hand was still locked onto her neck without any sign of letting go. Sherry gave up the punches and she used her only free hand tried to break the hand off her neck. Her legs were useless since the Colonel's right knee was pressing on her thighs. After a few tries to remove the hand with her own hand, Sherry found herself completely helpless. The hand was cutting her air supply, and it was not letting go at all.

As Sherry was being pressed against the ground by the Colonel, the Colonel moved his left hand toward Sherry's helmet. He quickly took the helmet off for a look. He wanted to see who it really was.

The moment he had removed Sherry's helmet, he was surprised. He saw a blond teenage girl under the mask. He was surprised so much that he had decreased the force on his right hand fingers while he was freezing there for a moment. Sherry now struggled trying to pull out of a knife which was being pressed beneath her hip.

At that moment, a lighting fast kick hit his chest. He fell back and hit his back on the ground right where he was crouching at. It was Ada who kicked him while he wasn't paying attention. Ada had already done with the other two commandos, now those two men were lying unconsciously on the ground 15 meters away.

Ada quickly moved closer and tried to step on the Colonel's chest who was still lying on the ground. Immediately, the Colonel rolled himself to the right and avoided Ada's stepping down foot. He quickly jumped onto his feet. Just when he was in a half standing position, Ada had already kicked at him again. Her foot was already very close, so there was no time to dodge it. In a flash, Ada's foot had impacted the Colonel's chest. To her surprise, the Colonel was standing right there not moving a step even though he was kicked pretty hard. Ada felt like she had kicked on a wall. As Ada's foot was stopping on the Colonel's chest, the Colonel suddenly took a grab of Ada's ankle with both hands, and rolled her leg. Ada was forced to jump up with her other foot and rolled her entire body in the air twice before landed. The moment she touched the ground, she "rebounded" toward the Colonel and kicked him with both feet. The Colonel was hit in the chest again, but he only stepped backwards five steps before he stopped with perfect balance. He did not show any sign of being injured.

"Iron Shirt!" Ada thought. "This commando is really something else. It looks like I will have to use more of my strength if I want to knock him out".

Sherry had stood up behind Ada while coughing really hard. She was holding her own neck, and her face was very reddish. If she wasn't tortured in the last 3 days, she could have done a lot better. She was weak, tired, and starving!

Ada waved her left hand to signal Sherry to stay back. Sherry listened and moved backwards a little, and she picked up an assault rifle from the ground.

Ada rushed forward while changing her route left and right in process. She was so fast which made the Colonel had to focus all his attention to follow her movements. A split second later Ada was already kicking at the Colonel's neck with superhuman speed. The Colonel did his best to bend backwards. Just as he was looking up, a sound of impact, his helmet was broken and kicked away, but the Colonel was unarmed as he had just barely dodged that kick. Ada's kick had only hit his helmet from the side.

"Wow, very close one!" The Colonel said in surprise as he bent back his upper body to look at Ada.

Now Ada saw his face. It was Colonel Tao!

"Colonel Tao!" Ada couldn't help to say it. "No wonder I thought I had heard the voice before".

"Umm, you are…" Colonel Tao just heard Ada talked for the first time. It was another woman, and he too felt it sounded really familiar.

"It's me, Ada," Ada said as she removed her helmet.

"Umm, why? What is going on here?" Colonel Tao was very confused. He knew Ada was a secret agent, but he knew nothing about the details of Ada's missions, nor anything about Wesker. Nor why Ada was wearing commando's combat gears fighting against the commandos.

"Let's just say, I am on my mission. It requires me to free this girl who General Zhao had captured 3 days ago. The council members had agreed to let me to do it. But General Zhao…you know that guy. He hates my dad, and he wouldn't let go of his trophy after the council members were all killed," Ada replied

"I knew everything between him and your dad. And I knew what kind of mean person he is. It was exactly why I declined his offer to join his commandos. By the way, I am not one of them. I am just temporary joined for this mission after I heard your father's base was attack".

"I am sorry Colonel Tao, there is no time. I have to get out of here now with this girl. Are you going to stop us?"

"Of course not! Ada, I am not General Zhao's puppets," Colonel Tao smiled. "Hurry go before more of them come".

"I don't know how to thank you!"

"No need to thank me. I am under your dad's command, and we are good friends personally. Besides, since the council had approved, that General Zhao should be arrested for doing this!"

Colonel Tao picked up the helmet Sherry had dropped and threw it to her, and Sherry caught it.

"Sorry about that. Are you ok?" Colonel Tao felt sorry for choking a young teen girl like that.

Sherry nodded before she put the helmet back on.

"There is nobody at the back of this building. Good luck!" Colonel Tao said

"Good luck to you too!" Ada quick left with Sherry after both picked up an assault rifle.

Inside a house somewhere in the United States,

Carlos was trying to get some sleep. Earlier that day, Jill had taken him for a tour in one of their organization's local bases. It was a small base. Not that many personnel, but it was quite fancy. There were lots of high tech equipments for communication, and for training. Jill told him they were supported by several business giants who did not want to reveal themselves. Those businessmen all had something in common. They all lost someone in Raccoon City incident, although they did not live there during that outbreak. One of the multi-billionaires had his daughter visiting a friend at Raccoon City right at the wrong time…

The organization's goal was to take down any Umbrella's remainders and their competitors who were still working on bio-organic-weapon researches.

The small base Carlos had visited was nothing more than one of the many contacting centers. There were quite some of these bases across the world. All the bases share real time information through their communication equipments. Majority of the personnel were undercover agents who always worked out there. Although they could have gathered a strike team if it was necessary, they still lack combat experienced special ops. It was one of the reasons why Jill asked Carlos to bring his combat experienced mercenaries.

The organization had detected Nicholai showing up at Zion Township for the last few months. They were not certain about what was going on just yet. Chris and Claire decided to join their agents at Zion Township for an undercover mission by tomorrow, since Nicholai had not seen them before. Carlos was asked to call in his mercenaries from Europe, and both Jill, himself, and the mercenaries would be joining at Zion Township shortly and to hide somewhere, in case of need an emergency strike team.

Now Carlos was in a house where Jill, Chris, Claire lived together. He was given a room downstairs. Everything was quiet, except…there was a woman's moan coming from above the ceiling. It was Jill, and it had already lasted for more than 15 minutes. There was nobody but Jill and Chris live upstairs.

As Jill's moan was getting louder and louder, Carlos couldn't take it any more. He got up from the bed before opened door and walked into the hall. Jill's moan could be heard as clear in the hall as in Carlos' room. He looked around for a short moment, before he started to do push ups with just one arm on the ground in the hall.

"One, two, three...," He was doing one push up every time he heard Jill moaning once. "…297, 298, 299…"

A door beside his room was opened. Claire walked out in her sleeping suit. She must have heard something in the hall.

"Couldn't sleep?"

"300!!!" Carlos quickly got up from the ground and he nodded.

"Is there something bothering you?" Claire asked with a sweet smile.

Carlos looked up at the ceiling for a few seconds and looked back at Claire. Jill was still moaning from upstairs. Claire laughed as Carlos was shaking his head with a forced smile.

"You will get used to it. They do that every day," Claire tried to calm Carlos down.

"EVERY DAY?" It was quite loud although Carlos did not mean it.

Immediately, Jill's moaning had stopped.

Carlos quickly covered his mouth with a hand. He felt stupid. Claire was stunned for a moment with her mouth open while looking at Carlos with her widened pretty blue eyes. She quickly put a finger against her cute lips while turned her face to look at the stairs for a second.

"Let's go outside," Claire said with a low voice.

The two of them quickly and quietly walked out of the house into the back yield.

Ada and Sherry were walking side by side on one of the smaller roads inside the desert base. They had exited the building some time ago, and they were already far away from the two buildings.

Suddenly,

"Hey, you two!" A voice came from the above

The two of them looked up. There were two soldiers on a watch tower about 12 meters high at their left. They were the soldiers of this base.

"Hey you Special Forces aren't so tough. Just look at yourselves. You walk like women!" One of the two soldiers on the watch tower shouted at them. Then both soldiers laughed. They knew there was no woman in General Zhao's Special Forces.

Sherry couldn't understand what they were shouting about, but Ada could. Ada immediately realized both Sherry and herself were unintentionally walking with their usual walking styles. Ada couldn't reply with her woman's voice, but she quickly gave them a middle finger with her left hand.

"Haha, is that the only thing you can do? I thought commandos suppose to be tougher than that!" The soldier wouldn't give up on insulting the commandos. They obviously did not like Special Forces' usual cocky attitudes.

Ada ignored them this time. As the two women in commandos' combat gears were about to pass the watch tower,

"We are quite bored up here. Since you ladies came, why don't you do some strip dancing for us?" A soldier on the tower shouted at them again before both soldiers laughed out louder.

Ada was annoyed. She turned around. In a flash she took out the zip line which was similar to her grappling gun and shot it onto the tower. In less than a second, Ada was already on the 12-meter-high tower right in front of the two soldiers. As the two soldiers were stunned by Ada's move, Ada pulled one soldier over and pushed him down the tower at Sherry.

Sherry was standing below the tower while looking up. As the soldier was falling down directly at her, she moved back one small step and lifted both of her arms. The soldier fell right onto her forearms, and she was holding him with holding bride style. Sherry quickly threw the soldier away onto the sand right beside herself. The man dropped onto the sand with face down. Two seconds later, the man got up with a mouth full of sand.

"No, No, No, not me!" The other soldier was trying to move backwards as Ada walked closer to him. But the tower was so small, just after one step he had hit his back on a mounted machinegun beside the searchlight.

Ada pulled him over and pushed him down the tower as well. Once again, Sherry caught him and threw him onto the sand right beside his buddy.

The two women walked away like nothing had happened after Ada jumped down from the tower directly onto the ground.

The two soldiers behind them were freezing there in panic, both were still had mouths full of sand. The "commandos" were a lot tougher than they thought.

"Are we really going to walk 80 miles?" Sherry asked with a crying voice. She was so hungry and tired, and she felt she could pass out any moment. Another 80 miles walking in a sandy desert would be like another torture for her.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. My dad had prepared a helicopter for us. We are almost there".

"Great!" Sherry was happy to hear that. It made her feeling even better to think about all the food and sleep she would be getting really soon. More importantly, she would be meeting with Leon!

In the forest just two miles near Raccoon City biohazard zone,

"Well, well, well, look, who have shown up?" It was Nicholai's voice with strong Russian accent. All the sudden at least 40 mercenaries in light green full body bio-chemical protection suits appeared in the woods that surrounding the abandoned camp house by turning on the laser aiming beams of their automatic rifles. They were all taking cover by using the trees.

Red laser beams were coming from all directions from the woods. Hunk and his 23 mercenaries who had just arrived were completely surrounded from three directions.

"Um, can we talk about this?" Hunk spoke as he was holding his MP5. Although his men were all pointing their laser beams back at the men in the woods, they were completely exposed with no cover while the opposite side was hiding among the trees.

"Hunk! So it was you who tried to kill me?" Nicholai's voice came from the woods and he sounded angry.

Out of the surprised ambush,

"Nicholai, I said it was not me! I do not lie!" Hunk replied through his gas mask, but he did not sound worried at all for some reason.

"Then why are you here?"

"We don't want any trouble. I thought you had done your job and left already…"

"Not exactly. There were some unexpected idiots sneaked into the tunnel and got themselves killed. So we had to return early. We have not really moved in yet," Nicholai said.

"Uh? How were they killed?"

"You should be worrying about yourself as you are about to die, Hunk!"

"No, wait a second. What I mean was, if those idiots were killed by some surviving mutants, was it really necessary to move in again? Shouldn't those dead idiots turn into zombies shortly and they are carrying the mutated radiation resisting T-Virus?" Hunk asked

"You got a point there. Yes, we got six of them right here".

"How about give me three? Then we can say goodbye and nice to work with each other?"

"Haha, you are making a joke. Who are the ones being surrounded? Why should I share my hard work with you?" Nicholai laughed out loud. Although it was hard to tell which one he was among all the hiding mercenaries in the woods.

"Oh? Who were surrounded?" It looked like Hunk was trying to play dumb.

Then suddenly, another group of over 20 gas masked mercenaries in black combat suits had appeared just 50 meters behind Hunk's team. Many red laser beams were pointing at Nicholai's men. Some of Nicholai's men turned their laser aiming at the new comers.

Now the two different groups of total over 90 mercenaries were pointing many guns at each other. Almost everyone on both sides was aimed by someone from the opposite side. It looked like they were evenly matched. If anyone started the shooting, it wouldn't be pretty for neither group…
