Who am I?
I woke to a persistent knocking on my door and groaned when putting the pillow over my head didn't help at all. I sit up and rub my eyes I steal a glance at the bedside clock 6:00am. I push myself off the bed and make my way to the door and opening it a crack I look at the person who thinks it is a good idea to knock at six in the morning.
" Hey we are going to go down for breakfast now." Jill says with a thumb over her shoulder.
I rub my eyes again and open the door wider so I can lean on the frame, " Oh, are they even serving breakfast this early?"
She smirks, " Yes they do." A look flashes on her face but it's gone within seconds and then she is leaving.
I nod " Alright I'll be down in a second." She nods her head and turns away from the door walking down the hallway.
I turn from the door and close it as I walk over to my duffel bag and put on some new clotsh I head out down the hallway that leads to the stairs and I can smell the food ( Not that I couldn't already smell it from the sheriffs office if I had tried, but I blocked out the ability.) And does it smell good. Bacon, eggs, toast, french toast; the works. The nice old lady( Emma I'm pretty sure is her name) loves to cook and is so excited to have three people staying. I sit down next to Sheva who is eating some eggs and toast.
The thought hits about what happened last night with Jill. When that licker had jumped clean over her and then attacked me, I didn't have a chance to shoot it or push it off of me. I was able to get my arm out and with extra force I had killed that thing by crushing it's skull. I was sure though that she hadn't seen that, that on one had seen me do that.
I am pulled from my thoughts by Emma.
"Would you like some orange juice dear?" Emma puts a kind hand on my shoulder and gives me a gentle smile.
"That would be nice ma'am." I give her a small smile and she waves her hand in dismissal.
" Call me Emma, or Miss Emma if you want." She goes over to her fridge and removes a pitcher of orange juice and a cup. She places it in front of me and pours it into the cup.
" Thank you."
"No problem dear, oh and please help yourself to what ever you want." She hands me a plate.
I nod my head and flash another smile as I head over to the counter and place a bit of everything on my plate. I feel starved once again, I think I recall Wesker saying that is was because of the virus and then having the kids as well. Whatever the reason I really don't like it the only good thing is that it hasn't really affected my ability to fight. hopefully it still won't. I sit back at the little table eating my eggs and bacon.
Jill sits on the opposite side of me and she is drinking some other type of juice and an omelet.

After that phone call from Chris Wesker had been a little antsy but at that time of night there wasn't much he could do. So he had gone back to sleep waiting for morning to come so he could figure out what was going on at that small town in Iowa. So when the bright rays of the sun had made their way through the slits in the blinds Wesker had been aroused from his slumber and made his way out of bed and to his closet.
He grabs a black tee and some gray pants bringing them into the bathroom with him. He takes a quick shower and gets dressed exiting the bathroom he grabs his sunglasses off the side table before leaving the room and heading to his sons room. He eases the door open and to his surprise both boys are already up and dressed even their beds are made.
" Good morning father." Dominik smiles at him and slides past the man heading to the kitchen for food.
" Morning father." Dimitri finishes pulling the covers up on his bed and then sliding past like his younger brother, heading to the kitchen.
He stands there for a second before mumbling out a "Morning" to himself and following his boys down.
Dimitri and Dominik are seated at the table an empty bowl in front of them and a spoon in hand.
" What would you guys like to eat?" He opens up the cabinet that contains the cereal.
" I want... frosted flakes." Dimitri picks.
Dominik scans the cereals quickly, " I'll have the coco puffs."
Wesker nods and pulls out both boxes and then the milk from the fridge. He walks over to the table he pours the frosted flakes into Dimitri's bowl and then the coco puffs into his brother's. Next he pours the milk and places it back in the fridge. He walks over to the counter starts the coffee and then leans against the counter facing the boys.
" Do you two know where your dad keeps his laptop?"
" He has a laptop?" Dominik asks taking a bite of his cereal.
" I've seen him with it a couple of times." Wesker tells him.
" Well if he does have it I would assume that he would keep it in the cabinet under the bookcase in the living room." Dimitri tells him un-interestedly.
" The one thats locked?" Albert rasies his eyebrow.
" Yes." Dimitri takes a bite and looks up at him. " Why do you want it? I thought you had your own in the basement?"
" I do, but I need his." He doesn't say anything more as he stalks off to the living room.
Dominik and Dimitri share a look before hopping off of their chairs and following him. When they get there he is kneeling in front of the bookcase thing looking around and under some stuff.
" Where is the key?" He doesn't look at them when he asks he just keeps looking, standing up he runs his hand over the top part of the case. Nothing.
" He... wears...it..." Dominik tells him slowly.
Wesker tenses up and then sighs bringing his hand down and staring at it in disgust (though you can't see this due to his glasses) and walks back to the kitchen. He gets to the sink and turns it on, running his hand underneath the moving water he washes away the dust.
The boys have followed him back to the kitchen and sit back down eating their breakfast. Wesker wipes his hand on the dish towel hanging on the oven and pours himself a cup of coffee. At this point P.B. comes running in and heads straight to the door sitting and wagging his tail. He opens it up and the dog dashes out with the door closing behind him Wesker brings his newly poured cup of coffee to the table, sitting between his boys.
" When is dad coming back? He hasn't called like he said he would." Dimitri says quietly more or less talking to his bowl.
" Chris is fine, he called last night." Wesker says it automatically his train of thought somewhere else.
"Oh." is all Dimitri says in response, he takes another bite of his cereal and chews it slowly.
"... Why don't you just break the door open?" Of course this comes from Dominik, he takes after Wesker in that regard. Just break everything open.
" I don't feel like replacing the thing, or hearing your dad bi-... whine and complain about how I have no respect for his things." He drawls.
The silence seems to go on for a long time until Dimitri speaks up once more, " Can we go to the park today?"
" Maybe after you get your school work done." He drinks his coffee in two huge gulps and stands up to let the dog in he also gives him some food.

When we finish breakfast Emma takes away the dishes telling us to be careful and good luck in what ever it is we are trying to do. We nod politely and tell her thanks for the meal. I hand the keys to Sheva " You know where it is right?"
" Yeah." She gets in the drivers side Jill in the passenger and I in the back. She pulls out and then on to the all-to-familiar road as we make our way to the clearing.
Ten minutes maybe a few more because of traffic and we get there. Load up on ammo and digging around there is a shotgun, it could be risky to take this but it kills those things alot faster. I take it just in case. Jill finds a magnum and some bullets, Sheva sticks to her pistols. We head out on the trail and when we get to the the shack we make a quick sweep around to see if anyone has returned. It doesn't look like it, we head inside real quick to see if the door has been opened but the rug is still in the same way we had left it. We exit the building and follow our marks on the trees to the little clearing we were ambushed in.
There is blood on the floor and I spot some bulletts hidden under the debris or leaves, twigs and other things. But no licker bodies.
" Do you think an animal got to them?" Jill asks poking around the floor.
" I don't think a single animal could do this, or even a pack. They were pretty big bodies." Sheva offers her African accent making it sound smarter.
They look at each other and then both of them turn to me. "... What?" I ask them quirking my eyebrow.
" Well last night... you had said that this didn't feel right..." Jill replies, she bites her lower lip.
" So then whoever is setting us up took the bodies back...?" I'm not sure what she wants me to say.
" I don't know, but it is kind of odd and maybe this proves it that there is someone else here that is pulling the strings." She looks to Sheva now.
" Well if that is the cse we have to find them and stop them. We should continue on, there is some sort of marks that go that way." I point forward, I try to zone in on a sound see if I can hear something or smell something, but I don't.
We keep walking following the drag marks. Some of them stop at the base of a tree and when we look around or up in the tree nothing, a few feet away the marks appear again. We have marked some of the trees on our way so we don't get lost ( the trail seems to go in odd directions at times) and within in thirty minutes we find ourselves standing in front of a broken down building. It looks to be three floors up and the place is rather long, half of a football field is my guess. The place looks just as run down as that shack a little ways back, vines stretching up the walls, windows cracked some even broken.
I smell the air and the dusty and musty smell almost makes me gag. Underneath there is something else: chemicals, sewage, and something else... copper. My hand wants to shoot to my gun but I pause in my actions, I haven't heard or smelt the lickers. I look through the windows and try to make out shapes, even movement but there isn't anything alive that I can find.
" We should let HQ know about this." I tell them going for my radio I press down the button. " This is Redfield to HQ."
A crackle, " This is HQ."
" We have located another building in the town, we haven't investigated it yet."
" Roger that, keep us posted as you investigate."
" Will do."
I lower my hand and head to the door, Sheva leans against the wall and gets her pistol ready. I open the door and she looks in pistol raised.
"All clear." She straightens up off the wall we head inside, guns at the ready.
" We need light." I tell them.
Jill slides her hand along the wall feeling for a switch, there is a click and buzz but no light. " Flashlight it is then." She pulls hers out and clicks it on.
We walk along the hallway keeping alert, the smell is stronger inside. We stop in a few rooms but find nothing of interest, a couple of newspapers that are from last week, someone has been here recently. We head to the stairs and there is some chairs and other debris blocking the path but they can be removed, we decide to leave them for the moment when that coppery metallic smell starts to drift...up from the floor? I look down and no there isn't any blood there or on any of the debris blocking our way up. I sniff around some more and follow it to a a vent just a little ways up. I turn to face them and tell them that we should check the basement but my cell phone goes off and I can see that both of them jumped when the silence had been penetrated.
I grab my cell phone and look at the caller I.D. Home. I answer it taking a couple steps away from them.
" Hello."
"Your going to love this."Wesker's voice is freaking me out, he had sounded sarcastically happy. I want to ask him what he means but I can hear shuffling over the other line.
"Hey Chris it's a... it's Zhane."Now I'm really confused what is Zhane doing at my house.
" Hey, is this an emregancy I'm kind of busy?"
"Well sort of... I mean Wesker had told me about the whole thing where you think you are being set-up especially with the blood."
I glance at the both of them who are staring at me, I shrug my shoulders and mouth the words ' I'm sorry' and hold up a finger ( they had the flashlight in my direction.)
" O...K."
" Excella had always mentioned that if I couldn't get it done or Wesker, she had other friends as well, someone else that could do it. So I'm thinking that she must of told someone about you before her... demise and so when she hadn't contacted them they went looking for you. So this other person could know what you are capable of and I would be careful."He tells me in a rush, and then more shuffling sounds.
" Did you get that?"It's Wesker now speaking to me.
" Yes I did, where does that leave me?" I am surprised with myself that I am still able to talk and not panic, but I've been trained to handle situations kind of like this before and you never panic.
" Two options actually. You could leave now- which I'm sure you won't- and the second is to stay and figure out if someone is luring you away or it just happens to be coincidence."
" Fine, but how did you know to go to him?"
" Your sister had called and then I remembered Dimitri mentioning that those two were dating which brought me to when you called the other night and had said they were the only other two that knew. Zhane had been working with Excella behind my back, I figured she would do the same to him as well." I know that when he had said Zhane's name he had growled at him.
" Alright look yes I am staying and I have to go right now I'll talk to you later. Tell the the boys I love them and I miss 'em." I hang up the phone and pocket it. I had the sudden urge and feeling that I should tell him that. And I do miss the boys and I haven't been able to tell them that. Turning back to Sheva and Jill who had been staring at me the whole time.
" Was that one of your kids?" Sheva asks.
" Yeah... well no the nanny." I quickly fib.
Jill looks a little shocked at the mention of kids, " What about their mom?"
" I... don't know where she is, it's a long story kind of." I tell her as I walk past them down the hallway looking for the stairs that will take me down to the basement and closer to that rusty and salty smell of blood. I can't really tell if it's human blood or something else.
I hear footsteps after me and when I catch the whiff of blood I take a sharp turn and keep walking until I'm face-to-face with a door; big bold letters read BASEMENT.
" How did you know it was down here?" Sheva asks when she finally catches up to me.
" I just had this feeling I can't really explain it." I reach for the handle and that would be the worst mistake I would make this day only I didn't know it at that time.
The door opens easily and I poise my pistol down the dark and narrow stairs heading down, nothing. Jill comes up behind us and we start to descend lower and lower until we reach the floor. I look around and there is doors to rooms along rear wall we are facing and to the left the space opens up and you can see t he things you would find in a basement, a furnace a workbench and some tools. We decide to head right down the narrow hallway and that smell nearly knocks me out I can tell by the gags that they can smell it as well. The basement had been lit by some red lights, they were low but they provided some light they also made the place look weird.
So when they had gone off I immediately pulled my gun up to chest level and spun around facing the other way, Sheva and Jill had done the same.
" Did anyone see anything or hear anything?" I ask them.
" No I was just following you and Sheva."
" Me neither Chirs." Sheva says.
" Jill you still have that fl-" I'm interrupted by a force that's knocked me down.
"Chris- argh" Sheva gets the wind knocked out of her and Jill fires two shots and that when we see the horde of lickers coming at us.
I get up and grab my gun that had been knocked from hand and fire three shots but a tongue shots out and secures my hand that is pulling the trigger and yanks it away. Sheva and Jill as well are being rendered defenseless with the arms and legs being bound. I yank my arm harder then normal and break the tongue, I then grab my knife and start to slice the ones holding Jill back off and she takes out her knife to free Sheva. That works for a little bit but they can't see whats in front of them and shooting could get one of us killed. I go to lunge at the one stalking Sheva when I'm knocked from behind alot harder then I would have figured these guys could and there is a tiny pin prick in the back of my neck. In a matter of seconds I push myself back up and turn around but I don't see anything, my hand goes up to the back of my neck and I don't feel any blood just sweat.
I search the ground for my knife as the sounds of struggling continues. I grab it from its spot wedge between some pipes and go to plunge it the skull of the licker whose tongue is impaled itself through Sheva's shoulder but I stop. My whole body freezes and I almost forgot what it was I was trying to do, the sound of her cry of discomfort reminds me and I bring my hand down knife pointing right for the brain and it plunges in killing it. There is no time to survey for dangerous wounds because the floor gives out ( when it was actually pulled out from under us.) we fall down but right ourselves before making contact with the cold hard floor beneath us. I look up right before the floor seals itself and notice that none of the lickers have jumped down, in fact they are standing around the edge as the floor seals.
Heavy breathing is all around me and I try to focus on the room, let my eyes adjust but everything looks blurry or like when you put on someones glasses and it made things distorted. I can make out that the sounds are coming from Jill and Sheva and after another second of blinking my eyes refocus and I can see clearly.
"Is... is... everyone.... al-alright?" Sheva asks between breaths.
" Yeah I'm okay I think, nothing hurts all that bad." I say with a weak laugh. " How about you Jill?"
She nods ( even though we shouldn't be able to see her) " Yeah a little banged up but like you said I'm not in enormous pain."
I look around the place and it is just a room, no windows or a door that I can make out. In fact the place looks like a containment cell of some sort.
" Do you still have your flashlight?" Sheva extends her arms out fingers stretched to their full length and she slowly makes her way over to Jill.
" I don't think so, I had dropped it when those things attacked it could have fallen with us."
Oh it had and it also broke into a couple of pieces, I think I might have landed on it. Sheva finds Jill and they stay close to each other as they make their way towards me.
" I don't think the flashlight survived if it fell with us." I mention this to them. Sheva and Jill are standing in front of me.
" Does anyone have a weapon still?" Jill asks this time and we all start patting our backs and holsters.
" I have my shotgun and some ammo, my knife and pistol are gone."
" I have a pistol and some rounds, what about you Jill?"
" I have my knife."
" That's fine at least we aren't completely defenseless." I try to sound reassuring but I have this nagging feeling that even if we did have all our weapons we would still be in trouble.
The only thing I can count on at this point is my hearing and eyesight blocking out sense my sense of smell so it won't distract me again.
" Yeah that's true... did you guys see anything about this room before the floor had closed back up?" Jill looks around the place and with her arms out she walks slowly to the wall.
" No." Sheva sounds sullen.
" Me neither."
" Maybe there is a door somewhere." She lays a hand palm against the wall and starts to slowly walk around, feeling for a door crack, handle pretty much anything.
I look again, slower this time maybe it's hidden in some spot and the light switch doesn't look like a switch. Still don't find it and she has is starting to go around again, the room isn't that big.

" Father are we going to go to the park now? We have finished our school work." Dimitri asks as he walks into the kitchen where his father and Zhane are.
He looks at him and then back to Zhane, " Can Zhane take you?"
" I guess so... when did he get here?" He gives him a questioning look.
" I went and got him."
" When?" He places his hands on his hips.
" When you guys were working on history. I was gone ten minutes the most." Wesker turns back to Chris' laptop ( Dominik has a special knack for getting into things he shouldn't.) and starts to read through the files that Zhane had sent from his computer.
" But dad said you shouldn't leave..." Dimitri doesn't mind being left alone neither does Dominik but he feel that something isn't right. In fact that voice inside his head isn't telling him in words that something is up but he knows that it agrees.
He turns to face his son and can see that he knows something is up, he kneels down so that he is eye-level with him. " I know and I am sorry about that but I needed Zhane immediately and he drives dreadfully slow."
Zhane snorts at that statement and rolls his eyes.
" Is everything alright? Is dad ok?"
" He is fine, I'm sure of it. He just wanted some information that I couldn't give him and thus the reason for Zhane." He pats him on the shoulder and stands back up rubbing the creases out of his pants.
" I'm not falling for that, but for the sake of not arguing fine. But then why does Zhane have to take us to the park? Why can't you? Is it because you are in fact lying to me and dad isn't OK but you don't want to tell me because you aren't that sure yourself?"
Wesker releases a quite chuckle, " You look and sound alot like Christopher when you make a point."
He gives him a hard stare " Is he alright?"
Wesker takes in a big breath, taking over the world he can handle, setting up his team, no problem. But telling his son that he has no idea if his dad is ok or not, nearly impossible.
"... I'm..." He doesn't know what else to say. " He loves you guys and he misses you, the both of you." He looks up at Dominik who has entered the kitchen and looking from Zhane to his father and then his brother he knows something is up.
" Father...?" Dominik keeps as calm as he can, he feigns ignorance at the situation maybe it's not as bad as he thinks.
Albert shakes head minusculy, he looks at Zhane over the rim of his glasses.
" Come on guys lets go to the park, you are going to have to show me where to go though." He holds out his hands and starts to leave the kitchen.
The twins stare at their father who gives them a glance while turning back to the laptop.
Dominik is the one that speaks up, he has the biting tone that Albert himself uses when he is insulting someone. " You can't just ignore us, we are your kids. Where is dad?" He adds the last part in weaker tone.
A hand goes up to his face and his thumb and finger rub the bridge of his nose. He doesn't look their way but his head turns to his shoulder half-way. " I'm working on it."
His voice holds no malice or sarcasm it is actually devoid of any emotion. Zhane grabs the boys hands and half pulls them out of the kitchen and to the front door.

We had sat down on the floor, still trapped. I couldn't hear anything above us or around us, which leads me to think that the room is sound proof. which leads me to believe that who ever Excella had also talked to could very well be behind this. Not to mention that pin prick I had felt in the back of my neck, it is causing my senses to go on the fritz and my control over my body is at times non-existent. It locks up or when I had kicked the wall just to see how strong it was I could feel a sudden surge and had to leap back before I could swing. This isn't good at all, I could get us all killed or accidentally hurt one of them. Not to mention they would find out about the virus, I think Jill noticed that licker awhile ago in the forest.
We are all sitting agianst a wall, Jill to the right of me and Sheva against the wall in front of me. We had tried a radios a little bit ago and of course no reception, but since we had informed them of arrival here and we were told to keep them posted; hopefully they will send someone when we don't contact them again.
" Do you think this was intentional, that we got caught or was it just by chance that we stumbled upon this place?" Jill speaks up after close to five minutes of silence.
" I'm not sure, this place does have some thing of a connection to that shack. The lickers had been here and something or someone had to of shut off those lights." It's Sheva who speaks.
Jill stands up and walks over to Sheva, she has a slight limp but hasn't mentioned anything wrong. I know both of them are hurting and I was earlier as well but my body has healed itself and everything is in working order except for this headache. It gets worse when I try to focus on the room, I've been keeping my eyes closed but when ever I catch a tiny sound they fling open and the images get distorted.
When Jill has made herself comfortable next to Sheva she starts to talk with Sheva very quietly.
" How long have you known Chris?"
Sheva looks confused and also looks like she has a third eye, I shut my eyes and I try to raise my hand. My movements have been slowed and I know I should mention the shot thing to them.
" Well I worked with him about five years ago in Africa. We haven't really known each other for very long but I've met his sister and we have hung out a couple times. Why?" The way she asks sounds as if she is concerned.
I hear the rustling of clothing and I am guessing that Jill has shrugged but I can't be sure, even trying to focus on what they are saying is hard.
" I was just wondering, odd things happen around him."
" Everything here is odd, I don't think you can solely base that all on him." She has a lilt to her voice.
" I know that, and I don't mean to sound insulting." I crack my eye open and I can see that they are both looking my general direction.
" Hey Chris you alright?" Sheva asks.
" Yea... I just... I can't... what was the question again?" What is happening I can't remember anything and where exactly am I?
" Chris...?" The darker skinned woman stands up, bracing herself against the wall.
" Do I know you? Where are we?"
" Christopher... this isn't time to joke around." She sounds worried and I feel bad for making her scared but I have no idea who she is.
" I'm not joking... I can't... why is it so dark?"
The woman with the accent comes closer to me, the other one stands up and follows her over.
" Chris, did you hit your head when we fell?" She holds up hand and slowly brings it to my head. She feels around but I don't think she finds anything.
" Aww crap." A jolt of pain shoots through my body, except my arm which has gone numb.
She yanks her hand back as if burned.
" Sheva what's wrong, why is he acting like this?" The brunette asks. She looks pretty, I wish there was light so I could see her better. Everything is a little fuzzy.
" Do I have glasses?"
Sheva, that's what the other girl called her, she looks down at me. " No..."
" Everything is fuzzy, and I have a headache."
They both look at me with worried expressions. The brunette puts her hand on Sheva's shoulder " What is going on?"
" I'm not sure... Chris did something happen when we got attacked my the lickers?"
" What's a licker?" I nearly gag at the sudden on slaught of rust, salt, and copper. " What is that smell?" I bring my other hand up to my face and plug my nose.
"What are you talking about I don't smell anything?" The other one asks, she looks around the room but I don't think she can see anything.
" It smells like... like... I don't remember I think it's pennies." How can they not smell that, it's so strong.
" Pennies?" Sheva kneels in front of me again.
" Do you mean blood?" The other one asks, I would really like to know her name.
" Maybe... I don't know how you guys can't smell that. What is a licker?"
She places a hand on my knee, " Chris, do you know who I am?"
" She called you Sheva."
" Yes, that is my name. You don't know her's?"
I shake my head no, I think she saw it.
" I'm Jill." Jill, that's a nice name.
" Where are we?"
" We aren't really sure. Some where in Iowa, a small town." Jill answers.
" We don't live here?" I have this feeling that I'm way farther away from my home then I ought to be. Was I taken by force here?
" No, we are investigating."
Investigating... this sounds familiar... who investigates? " We are cops...?"
" Kind of, we work for the B.S.A.A. Which stands for Bio-terrorism Security Assessment Alliance." Jill says.
" Does any of that sound famailer?" Sheva is asking me.
" A little bit but I can't place anything." I'm starting to feel tired and sleep sounds really good right now.
" Chris... Chris... you can't sleep, if you have a concussion sleep is a very bad idea." Sheva tells me as she shakes me awake.
" Everything is fuzzy and I can't... you just have to wake me up in a bit..." I don't know if I finished talking, all I remember is peace and quite.

" Zhane what is going on with dad, is he alright?" Dominik asks him when they are a few feet away from the house. Dimitri had told him there was a park close enough to walk to.
" I'm sure everything is fine. Your dad is a smart man, and because of the- you guys know- he should be fine." Zhane does his best to sound sure but he isn't, he has no idea what is going on.
" Zhane... it's a right up here." Dimitri says the last part sullenly, he had wanted to say something else.
They make the right and they can see the park from here. They don't say anything more when they get there, both boys head for the swings and Zhane sits down on the bench.
" I hope Excella was joking, but it's a fat chance." He mutters to himself.
Back at the house Wesker is reading over all the files and what Excella had wanted exactly from Zhane. He re-read the files on Chris and what was happening, he knows that it is possible she had told someone else. And now they have found Chris; they could take him away and try to get him to kill Wesker once more. There is tons of things that can happen if this person gets ahold of Chris. He swats away the bowl of fruit on the counter causing the apples and oranges to spill onto the floor, P.B. who had been laying on the floor gets up with a start and ducks away. He hates the fact that he can't go see what is going on there for himself, that he can't walk right into the BSAA and tell them that something is terribly wrong with this mission. He hates that he feels this way, like it's almost his fault there is other emotions but he can't place them or doesn't care to.
Wesker isn't sure why he feels this way or the fact that he is concerned this much about it. Chris could be perfectly safe, for all he knows Chris is just over re-acting because he can't handle things like he thought he could. Christopher Redfield is nothing if not stubborn and extremely hard to kill and that was before he had been infected. He lets out a breath rights the bowl and places the fruit back in it.
