Hey my faithful readers, chapter number five is waiting. So sorry for the wait, thing has been busy. Consists mostly of Jill with flashbacks. Hope you enjoy & please review. I love to read what people think of the fic. Thanks to sophie623 && Lotsofimagination && for the reviews, it means a lot. Anyhow on with the story.
Jill raced forward her gloves rubbing gently against the smooth handle of her beretta M92F handgun keeping her grip tight like that of her partner who grasped an M3 shotgun within his hands. They weren't taking any prisoners not after what had happened to S.T.A.R.S by that evil creation that was Albert Wesker. She narrowed her eyes as they faced the doors of the Spencer estate infected dogs charging behind them making it the only area they could go. Both feeling slightly unprepared they dove in the door slamming shut creating a protective barrier between them and the infected creatures outside. Sighing to herself the female noticed the blood on the floor, there had been a struggle or a fight and obviously by the state of the floor someone had lost.
"Chris look" she told her partner kneeling next to the deep red substance.
"Is that from a human?"
"I don't know, I couldn't tell"
"Wish me could"
"Yeah" she exclaimed her voice strong "Takes you back doesn't it?"
"To Raccoon city? Yeah" he agree nodding his head "It's where this hell started"
"Hard to believe it was eight years ago, guess I am getting old"
"You're not the only one"
Three passwords later and a trap which nearly crushed Redfield they found themselves in some sort of secret testing area where the remains of infected humans remained, some still shaking as the virus worked through their system in reality they were dead but their bodies wouldn't let that stop them. Jill shuddered at the thought of how someone could do that to anyone but she already knew the answer to that. Umbrella. That company and the man known as Wesker her boss the one who betrayed them all, he would pay for it she wanted that just as much as Chris. Together they would punish him for those that he killed.
"What's that smell" she asked the twisted aroma of death filling her nostrils.
"I dunno. Hope we don't run into whatever is making it"
"Yeah? When have we ever been that lucky?"
"We haven't but I can dream can't I?" he wondered a smile creeping onto his lips.
She raised an eyebrow before passing the rusty machines still covered in a mixture of blood and what looked like skin not that observed it too much. Jill was here for Spencer then she was after Wesker once that was done for her it would be over, then she could relax like any other BSAA member hunting the B. that still remained. Chris suddenly ran past her outstretching his hand to stop the female from taken another single step forward a finger pressed to his lips as soon as she opened hers. Following his sight she managed to see a glimpse of a bulky creature carrying some sort of giant axe with what looked like a rotating eye on it's back.
"What the hell is that?" she asked in a whisper exchanging her handgun for a MP5 machine gun.
"Something that is going to die if it gets in our way" he muttered lifting his shotgun up.
"Why do they do this to people Chris?"
"They don't need a reason Jill they do what they want"
"Then we have to try and stop them"
"No" he told her twisting his eyes to her figure "We will stop them"
Marching forward they heard the echoing sound of the metallic weapon being dragged across the ground it's sharp whining noise creeping into their ears like a small screech or scream. Each passageway they came across they could heard the thump of it's movements yet for a while they didn't see it again for once it looked like they wouldn't have to cross it's path. That is before they made their way up a small set of stairs Chris in the lead. Just as they turned around the corner Jill saw it, the shadow of the axe being brought down right where her partner stood. With a yell she gripped his shirt trying to support their weight with her feet digging into the floor tugging backwards with all of her strength.
The male's figure was pulled backwards as the axe connected in the wall creating a thunderous sound as it did so. Chris swallowed noticing his arm was inches away from the triple bladed weapon which began to get lifted back to it's rightful owner breaking the BSAA members from his thought's to retreat with Jill back down the stairs as the gatekeeper swung it's weapon yet again. The female hit the bottom stair first kicking off of the wall to turn around firing an array of bullets straight into the B. chest earning a small yell of anger to erupt from it's covered face however it didn't seem to be doing anything but slow it down. Noticing this the pair backed up running back down the corridor they had come up moments before.
"Any ideas?" she asked reloading.
"That thing on it's back when you shot that it screamed it must be it's weak point"
"Then we have to pincer attack it" she told him her memories flashing suddenly in her head on the creature walking across the platform earlier "Wait, it's eye. There is an eye on it's back that has to be it. We hit that, it dies"
"You sure?"
"Got any other ideas?"
Their debate was cut short by a low pitched yell that escaped from the creatures jaw as it appeared around the corner and although neither BSAA member could see it's face they were sure it was snarling at them. Chris knelt to the ground his arms outstretched while Jill took a few steps back before she sprinted forward kicking onto her partners hands where she was able to flip over her foe's head landing with a thud. Redfield rolled backwards once the gatekeeper began to swing it's weapon yet again this time within a narrow corridor that was going to end up as a dead end. Arming himself he shot bullet after bullet into the bulge on it's back each time releasing some kind of poisonous liquid that burned against it's own skin, he only began to stop once the thing lowered it's own body to the floor kneeling awkwardly on the stone surface. Jill was ready. Her machine gun propped she fired a steady barrage of bullets into the creatures back the eye staring straight at her, as soon as thirty or so bullets connected with the socket it imploded sending the gatekeeper directly downward.
Shaking violently for a few moments the two agents remained motionless repeatedly staring from the gatekeeper to their partner. A grin eased onto Chris's face while Jill let out a sigh of relief her hair slowly dropping onto her neck. Reconnecting the two began to make their way through the estate having to defeat other B. of the same appearance while losing their equipment during the journey due to them falling into a collapsed sewer like level. Thankfully however they were able to get out with the help of some needle like traps as well as finding a handgun each before they needed to face Spencer. To each of their surprise they found their target murdered with Albert Wesker standing over the non breathing corpse.
"You" they yelled in unison.
"The weak would always resist the will of the Chosen" he said twisting his hands into fists.
The BSAA members clutched their handguns firing an array of bullets towards Wesker who simply moved past them with his genetic enhances that he had received. Not one single bullet had hit the male in the time it took for him to reach the other end of the room kicking into Jill who was thrown into a bookcase, the papered stories falling on top of her weakened body. Chris yelled out taking a swing at his former boss who dodged the blow gifting the male with one of his own sending Redfield connecting to a large wooden pillar. Grunting he stood up firing at the male again giving Jill time to swing behind the male performing a cartwheel that allowed her to slam her feet into Wesker's chin knocking him down.
"One for the strong" added Chris grinning.
Jill came flying past him yet again before he could move an inch he felt the other male's hand gripping his throat closing the small tubes that were trying to pass air through to his lungs. That however wasn't good enough for Wesker thus Chris found himself being dragged across the table and being held towards the back windows facing a formidable grin of a person that was willing to cause murder, a person that would enjoy it. For him time began to slow. He saw Jill get to her feet. He saw her scared glance at his features. He saw the determination in her eyes. He knew exactly what she was going to do. He tried to pled with her to stop but he knew it was pointless. He saw her charge at the infected male. He saw the glass shatter as the pair fell through it. He saw Jill's body fall into the darkness being absorbed along with Wesker's form.
"No" yelled Redfield ache pulsing into his voice.
Jill shuddered awake her eyes fluttering gently into space. If she knew what death felt like then she would be pretty sure that it was how she felt at that moment sprawled onto the concrete floor. Her chest was tight restricting her movements to their bear minimal which for Valentine wasn't an easy thing to deal with. She was a fighter, one of the highest agents within the BSAA or at least she was. The female still couldn't believe that she had missed out on so much, Chris had tried to explain on the plane and Josh had explained during their escape of Tricell but if she was honest with herself than she could easily say that she felt lost in a world that wasn't hers.
Yes she had been aware of everything she had done while Wesker had control over her but it wasn't the same thing at all, her body wasn't hers her brain wasn't hers. She had been a shell in Africa helping Umbrella to infect thousands for Jill Valentine it was her job to stop that from happening. Her belief in life was now torn, she wanted to help the BSAA of course she did but how could she forget everything that she had done? People were dead or infected because of her. Yes, Wesker as now dead but she didn't even do that. That task was performed by her former partner Chris Redfield and Sheva. She couldn't even kill the man that had made her do those awful things, the man that had planted that device on her skin, the man that had ran his fingers across her skin, his hands touching every inch of her skin while she was unable to move, the man who had unzipped his trousers while watching Jill's controlled body, the man who had entered her while tears formed round her face, the man who had laughed at her pain.
The agent screamed out her whole body shaking with anger that she was able to ignore the pain her body felt to slam her fist into the wall. Over and over she connected, each time allowing a tear to fall from her strained eye's. Blood began to form on her suit but she didn't stop, she couldn't stop and she wouldn't of not if Chris hadn't woken up at that point. He saw the unconscious bodies of Josh and Sheva both who were covered in bandages over their wounds reminding him of his own. Touching his face he felt no injuries yet a small cooling sensation making him frown slightly, it was the residue of first aid spray. Someone had healed his wounds, why? His thoughts disappeared however as his blocked ears opened up to a terrifying audio. Instantly he turned towards his friend pulling her shoulder towards him away from her target however soon enough the male found himself being hit in the chest more tears falling from Valentine's eye's.
"Jill it's me" he exclaimed in shock trying to grab the other's wrists to stop her from hurting herself anymore that she had done "It's Chris"
"No, you liar" she yelled "You left me there, you let him control me. You let him do those thing's to me"
"I know I failed you as your partner. I'm so sorry"
"Chris" she gasped the words finding it hard to break through her throat so much that her fists dropped to her sides "Wesker raped me"
"What?" he asked looking into her bloodshot eyes yet instantly she closed them leaning into her partners stomach.
"He raped me. The bastard keep me locked up like his own personal play thing"
"No" muttered the male tears falling from his eyes.
"Why are you crying it's not like you care if you had cared that you wouldn't of let him, you would of stopped him" she eventually said stopping after every through words.
"I do care and I always will. I thought you were dead"
"You should of known"
"I tried to look, I spend years looking for you. I couldn't breathe or sleep or eat. I had the BSAA looking for you I didn't rest"
"But you stopped looking"
"We had to" he said sounding defeated "Umbrella started to create more and more B. that were killing innocent people because we hadn't gone on a mission since you disappeared. Everyone was looking for you. Jill please understand, I would never give up on you"
"Then don't" she told him finally looking into his eyes wanting to feel his arms around her they were the only place that she had ever felt safe "Don't ever leave me again"
"Never" the male agreed wrapping his arms around her frail figure before planting a gentle kiss on her forehead "I love you partner"
Excella paced across her office two soldiers watching her as she did so. Chris wasn't suppost to have woken up, Jill was suppost to have been taken out of the room and back under their control before placing her back into the room where she could wait to attack the trio killing them one by one. Someone had forgotten to take into account how big he was so had applied the wrong amount of serum to render him unconscious. She wasn't going to suffer for the mistake, she had already died once. Never again not if she could help it.
"Someone is going to pay for this" she yelled showing the two her nails which had been bitten into "If they get out before we're ready then this whole situation will not work out"
"What do you want us to do?"
"What do I want you to do?" she repeated frowning in annoyance "I want you to get rid of them, capture the female and do what you wish with he rest just don't kill them. We need them for testing"
"Yes madam" they said waiting for more orders.
"Well go"
Once the soldiers left the room the cloned female was able to stare back into the video feed of the trapped room. Within minutes they would have Jill back under their control helping them to kill her own friends before Excella would make her walk to her own death. Cruel she knew but that was what the world was like. The BSAA members needed to get used to it sooner or later.
