He is Real

Chapter 22

Warnings: Lemon, Gore, Language

*Author's Note: One more for the night, then it'll be back to three a day, probably.... Hmm, I should ask her if she'd let me take her "Devil May Cry" story too, if anybody plays that. From what I hear, it's like this, only, the Devil May Cry characters in it. Also, this story has a sequel, but she never updated past chapters one and two of it. Just something to consider!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You walked with Leon in a fast pace, both your hands linked together. You were walking in the forest, your motive to find Jessica and Luis. You preyed that they were still safe. You tried to believe that they would be just perfectly fine after all Jessica was with Luis, an ex-cop.

You sighed to yourself, walking a little faster so you were now walking at Leon's side.

You looked down and smiled to yourself. Leon's fingers began to move, finding their way to lace with yours. You looked back up seeing Leon smile at you.

"You okay?" he asked.

"Just worried," you replied, liking the feeling of your fingers laced with his.

"Don't be, they'll be fine. Luis is strong, and Jessica is brave, they'll be just fine," he reassured.

You nodded and looked forward again, slowly resting your head on Leon's shoulder. He sighed and gently squeezed you hand with affection.

Hopefully, Leon was right, it's enough that you have to tell your parents that their house here was probably destroyed, including the town, but you didn't want to have the responsibility of having to tell Jessica's family that she was gone too.

You needed to know if she was all right. Suddenly you began to run, slightly dragging Leon until he picked up his pace too.

"We should hurry, you know? Just in case they might be in trouble," you told him when he questioned you with a look.

He nodded in agreement as you two ran deeper into the forest.

Jessica's and Luis' pace seem to be getting slower while the Las Plagas carriers seem to be getting faster. Jessica's legs were literally numb, including her ankle. Her breathing had become rigid. Even her sight was becoming blurry.

She was in the point of vomiting because she was so dehydrated. But she held her stomach from doing that.

Luis was panting as well. Every moment he'd aim back at the infected group, and shoot at them to buy a little more time.

Luis looked forward seeing a light at the end of the forest. He forced himself to run a little faster towards it.

Suddenly he skids to a halt, causing Jessica to bump right into him.

"Why'd you stop?" Jessica choked out.

"Dead end..." Luis replied.

"What!" she exclaimed with disbelief and looked over his shoulder.

A cliff was in front of the both of them and there was no way through it. Jessica's eyes grew wide as she slapped her hand over her mouth, in complete shock.

"We're dead..." she whispered, "We are so dead." Luis turned to her, gripping her shoulders and looking her in the eye.

"We're not dead, we just need some other way to escape," he reassured her with a smile.

Jessica averted her gaze from his eyes and straight to the dirt on the ground. She closed her eyes and shook her head, tears beginning to form.

"There's no way we can escape..." she doubted and looked up, starring back at Luis with watery eyes. She smiled. "It was nice meeting you."

Luis opened his mouth to say something but he immediately closed it when he saw the infected group come out of the forest and slowly walk towards the two. Both Jessica and Luis took steps back. Jessica instantly stopped on her tracks when she can feel her self nearing the edge.

"Luis? What do we do?" she asked, frightened with fear.

"Well, I know what I'm going to do," he replied "Just in case we don't make it out alive."

Jessica looked at him oddly. Suddenly he grabbed her wrist, pulling her into him. Jessica blushed as she felt Luis put his arms around her waist.

"Luis, what are you-" Jessica began to ask but was cut off when Luis crashed his lips onto hers.

Jessica's eyes grew wide dramatically. Her cheeks began to redden even more. Luis then pulled back away from her with a sly grin. Jessica starred at him with a shocked expression until she grabbed his gun from his hand.

"Screw that, no way am I dying now," she stated as she aimed forward at the group. Luis lightly chuckled.

"We can beat them together, senorita," he told her as he took his shotgun from his back, holding it as if it were a baseball bat.

Suddenly, one of the women charged forward, her axe raised. Jessica was to slow to react when she brought the weapon down on her. Jessica leaned back in reflect but her whole body began to fall back

.
She screamed as she began to fall off the cliff. She closed her eyes, waiting for her demise. Luis quickly snatched Jessica's hand, letting her dangle off the cliff with him as her only support.

"Senorita, hold on!" he told her.

"O-Okay," she stuttered, trying her best not to look down. Luis began to pull her up until Jessica noticed the same woman now behind Luis. "Watch out!" she shouted.

Luis looked over his shoulder; his eyes widened noticing that there was nothing he could do to defend himself without letting go of Jessica's hand. Suddenly, gunshots were heard at the left. The bullets pierced against the woman's flesh. She cried out in agony and fell forward.

Luis crouched down so that the woman fell over him and down the cliff. Her scream echoed in the hollowness of the hole.

"Need some help?" Luis looked over at the direction of the voice seeing you and Leon run up to them.

"Would be nice," Luis replied. You nodded and kneeled down, grabbing Jessica's other hand.

"How's it hanging?" you joked but only to received a glare from Jessica.

"This is not funny," she stated with a raised brow.

Leon stayed in front of all of you, shooting at the group every time they came close. You pulled with Luis, trying with all your strength to bring Jessica up back on land. You gritted your teeth as you finally brought her all the way up.

"Thanks," she said and felt her forehead. How easily she could have died with one slip of both yours and Luis' hand.

"Some help would be nice," Leon said, still shooting at the people.

Luis grabbed his gun on the ground where Jessica dropped it. He quickly stood up, taking aim and firing. You stayed beside Jessica, trying to relax her, calming her down. You knew you would have been worse then she if that happened to you.

You were extremely afraid of heights. You would probably die from the sight below then the actual fall.

"___________, take my TMP and help us out," Leon ordered. You nodded and got up, taking the gun from where it was strapped on his body. You aimed at the three survivors before you. You smirked.

"Sayonara, losers," you said and shot at them with rapid fire. They flinched uncontrollably with each punctured bullet.

Luis shot a man in the leg making him instantly fall back from your gun shots.

"This is getting old..."

*Author's Note: Seriously, consider those things I mentioned up there. If anyone wants the Devil May Cry story up, I'll ask if I can put it up. I mean, I don't know if she'll say yes or not, but hey, if someone wants it, I can show her whoever does, and see if I can convince her.
