Chapter Two

A few hours had passed and Alice and Jill had made a few conversations. Alice was bored beyond hell and Jill was tired since she had no sleep last night and quite frankly didn't rest well anytime before that. Alice and Jill looked at each other and smiled as the van stopped and the engine was turned off. " God about time, you think they forgot about us back here, " mumbled Jill as she stood up and opened the back door of the van. They stopped at a gas station and quite frankly it wasn't all to new or clean looking. Alice stepped out of the van stretching and looking at her surroundings.

" This place seems to fit you Jill. Dry and nothing exciting."

Jill crossed her arms not to sure what the first insult meant. " I'll let that one slide for now."

Alice laughed and Angie approached them. " Do one of you think you could take me to the restroom. I really don't like the look of this place, please can one of you?"

" I will," Alice and Jill said at the same time.

" That's wonderful!." Angie said getting in the middle of the two and grabbing their hands and dragging them to the restrooms she saw to the side of the building.

Alice and Jill leaned against the brick wall on either side of the door waiting for Angie. Alice grinned as she noticed Jill was having a hard time keeping still, constantly shifting her weight form one leg to the other. She must need to go to the bathroom pretty badly.

" Hey Jill, mind standing next to the door when I go?" Alice stated her tone serious but she was really being playful.

Jill glared at her not knowing if she was serious. However the look Alice was giving her told her she was, she grumbled and nodded. Angie stepped out of the restroom and thanked the two and headed back towards the van. Alice stepped in and grinned as Jill crossed her arms. Jill tapped the heel of her boot against the wall waiting for her to hurry and get done. However after about five minutes and not hearing anything she began to get impatient. She knocked on the door, " Hey Alice could you hurry, id like a turn before we hit the road."

" Patience Valentine!"

Jill growled and kicked the wall and paced in front of the door. A few more minutes had passed and she finally just opened the door and the sight she saw, pissed her off. Alice stood there grinning at her with a cigarette in her hand. " Didn't know you were that slow Valentine."

Jill glared at her and snatched the cigarette in her mouth and threw it to the floor stepping on it. "Smoking is a very bad habit Alice, can kill you."

Alice glared at her, " Messing with me while I'm smoking is more hazardous to you health."

Jill laughed and pushed her towards the door, " Get out you bitch."

" Your just as big as a bitch as I am Valentine," Alice replied walking out.

Alice headed back towards the van when two men were headed towards the restrooms. She focused on them and realized these men were trouble. Carrying handguns she also knew what they were planning. She waited until they went around the corner and followed them to the restrooms.

Jill opened the door and took a step out. Before she could even think she was slammed against the brick wall and immediately moved her head dodging the punch. She quickly grabbed the mans arm and turned around and slammed his face in the brick wall before pushing him back and tripping him. The other man had pulled out his gun and aimed at her. " Against the wall you whore!"

Jill glared at him and put her hands in the air and then behind her head and backed up against the wall. Jill wanted to roll her eyes at these amateurs as she unhooked the pocket knife from inside the neck of her shirt. The guy grinned thinking he had overpowered and went to check on his friend however keeping his eyes on her. Before the guy could react Jill quickly in one swift motion pulled her arm out from her behind her and threw the sharp knife at him, hitting his hand holding the gun. The man screamed and cursed on the ground holding his bleeding hand. Jill quickly kicked him in his head and knocked him out. She shook her head and pulled her pocket knife out of his hand.

" Bastard got my knife bloody," Jill mumbled to herself.

" You know the guy could have slipped and pulled the trigger."

Jill jumped and quickly turned around to see Alice behind her. " Well I'm glad to know you were watching me, Assistance would have been helpful if I didn't handle it properly," Jill replied wiping the knife clean with a small cloth and shoving it back in the spot in her t shirt.

" You're a big girl Jill. Never knew you were good with pocket knifes though"

Jill smiled, " A weapon is a weapon. Besides I mostly use it for picking locks."

Alice detected the scent of blood however it wasn't from the wounded man. " Are you ok?"

" I'm fine, thanks," Jill said walking off towards the van. Alice kicked one of the men in the head and smiled to herself and walked back towards the van.

" hey girls, I'm short on cash but I got you cupcakes," Carlos stated throwing pack at Jill. Jill caught it, "Thanks."

Alice and Jill got in the back of the van again and took their spots across from each other. Jill set the package of cupcakes in the middle, Carlos had been so kind to get a package with only two things inside. Alice looked at the package and wanted to laugh, was the guy seriously that stupid…that wasn't even enough for one of them and sugar wasn't appealing in a hot van.

Jill closed her eyes, she was hungry but too tired to even want to eat. She opened her eyes and then glared as Alice was in front of her, " Can I help you?"

" Let me see that knife of yours."

" let me hear a please," Jill replied.

Alice glared at her now and quickly grabbed Jill and put her in a head lock. " Me asking is a good enough please."

Jill fought against her but then stopped as Alice lifted the back of her shirt. " What the hell, if you want the knife its by the neck of my god damn shirt Alice."

They hit a bump causing both of them to fall however Alice never lost her grip and jill groaned as she almost did a face plant against the bed of the van. Alice ran her fingers across the wounds that were bleeding. Jill once again struggled and finally just gave up. " Would you please tell me at least what the hell your doing to me."

Alice grinned, " Your bleeding, I wanted to see how bad. Its not that good looking but I'm sure you've had worse."

" Well its not like you have band-aids so let me go."

Alice grinned, no she didn't but she had something better. She focused on the scratches and the cells and broken skin. The scratches soon become scabs and she smiled, maybe her new strength could be useful. Jill shivered as a feeling washed over her and immediately used her strength and escaped Alice's grasp and slid till her back was against the van. Alice grinned and sat back in her spot. Jill had no idea what the feeling she had was but she didn't like it one bit.

Alice smiled as she forgot the spine of a woman could be sensitive, she must have felt a tingling sensation. " Well why don't you have some food to help calm you down."

Jill made no reply and stared at her in shock still and grabbed the package and slowly ate a cupcake. Alice grinned, she acted like she violated her. She leaned back and then quickly caught the chocolate cupcake thrown towards her face. She looked at it as she caught it a little to hard as white filling and moist chocolate was smashed on her hand. Jill laughed and rested against the van closing her eyes and going to sleep. Alice glared at her, woman sure had a lot of guts. Maybe being stuck with her wasn't so bad.

- night-

The van came to a screeching halt and Alice and Jill woke up from their slumber. They heard the sound of voices and Jill smiled, " We reached the others!"

Alice followed Jill outside the can and noticed two females talking to Carlos. One of them with a leather jacket noticed Jill. " JILL!"

Jill hugged the younger woman. " Claire its great to see you again, who all joined you?"

Claire motioned for the younger woman to come. Jill smiled and hugged the younger woman. " Rebecca, its been a while I see your doing great."

Claire smiled, " Me, Becky, Barry and Chris are here."

Jill nodded, " Very good, this should be easy with all of us going down into the hive. OH you guys, meet Alice, she's a bitch but she helped me out in Racoon."

" yeah we heard about that. Had us all worried. Glad to meet you Alice, if you can tolerate Jill enough to be her friend then you can easily be a friend of mine." Alice smiled this girl had a lot of confidence.

" Well you guys can rest in the helicopter on our way to others. Becky here will be joining me in infiltrating the hive with your group. She's a computer geek now and not just a geek"

Jill laughed as Rebecca playfully punched Claire in the arm, The two seemed to get along well, maybe it was their young age.

" The helicopter is small and only seats five. You guys have five people and our helicopter is a cheap piece of shit. If you count Becky it holds five people. However I made a bet with her that my motorcycle is just as fast so if one of don't value your life, you can ride with me." Claire stated smiling.

Alice grinned as she was very tempted however she preferred to be the one driving.

" Well I guess ill ride with you, could you just not kill me?" LJ asked stepping forward.

Claire laughed, " Ill try not to. Ill explain more to you guys once we join the others, they might have more information. See ya Jill." Claire smiled and patted Rebecca on the shoulder. " Oh hey Jill, watch Rebecca for me, she likes to be a daredevil when she flies."

Rebecca smiled at her and looked at the group, " Well lets hurry please. I prefer not to lose this bet."

Carlos sat in the front with Rebecca. Alice and Jill sat together so that Angie could lay down and sleep. Jill was very happy that she would be seeing her friends again. She was surprised as Claire seemed to have matured a little along with Rebecca. Rebecca was a smart young girl, guess someone need to learn about the tech stuff in their group. Alice was happy to finally get out of that van. Claire seemed like a nice girl and Rebecca seemed shy however, confident in the things she did. She looked at Jill as she seemed to be lost in her thoughts.

" What's the other two like?" Alice asked.

Jill glanced at her, " Chris is Claire's brother. He's a nice young man, dedicated to the things he does. Barry is very experienced in weapons, he's pretty old. Hell back up a team member but can be unsure of decisions he makes."

Alice nodded and glanced at Angie, poor girl didn't have anyone but them. She never had a normal life and never would, not as long as Umbrella still thrived on the world. " You think we even have a chance to get into a perfectly running Hive?"

Jill looked at Alice and then the ceiling. " Really…I don't know how well pull this off. If security is very tough in this place…however it wasn't built that long ago. They might have staff but not everything else, I really don't know. We will find out once get briefed though."

Alice nodded remembering the incident from the first hive. Everyone had died….she didn't save one of her friends. Now she was strong…she would protect her friends. Umbrella wasn't going to take another, she would make sure of that. Alice looked at Jill and noticed she had fallen asleep. She looked at Angie and smiled, at least she was good care now. She decided rest wouldn't hurt anyone and closed her eyes and let the darkness take over.

Jill opened her eyes and immediately raised a hand to cover the sunlight blinding her. She shivered and focused her eyes glancing out the window. It was early in the morning.

" Alright sleeping beauties. Well be landing in about twenty minutes. I advise yall buckle up."

Alice opened her eyes at the sound of the voice and mumbled and buckled herself her up. She glanced at Angie who was still sleeping. " Jill go wake her up."

Jill grumbled and unbuckled herself, " Yes oh mighty strong one."

Alice grinned at her and watched as Jill gently shook Angie's shoulder and helped her get buckled. Her tone was soft and very motherly. Alice continued to grin at her as Jill sat back down next to her. Jill raised an eyebrow at her.

" What?" Jill asked.

" You ever think of having of your own kid Valentine?"

Jill glared at her, actually she never had. " Alice my my, I know you cant resist me but I'm not to sure you got the testicles for it."

Alice glared at her and would have taught her a lesson if the copter didn't began to shake violently.

" Sorry yall, but we hit some bad turbulence, it'll settle down soon."

Jill all of a sudden felt nauseous. She clutched her stomach at the pain, however she knew she wasn't air sick, it was something else. Alice glanced at her, she was worried and figured Jill was feeling a bit nauseous however in Jill's mind it wasn't that.

Alice rubbed Jill's back, " Valentine are you ok?"

Jill saw her vision going blurry and everything getting bright.

Alice shook her shoulder, " Jill what's wrong?"

Jill coughed and threw herself back as the pain got worse. Then darkness swarmed her vision.
