He is Real

Warnings: None, I think

*Author's Note: Ehh, I'm not sure this is really related to the "He is Real" at all. I don't remember.... but, enjoy it anyways, I guess.

Deleted scene:

This is a prologue of how Leon Scott Kennedy's mission to travel to Portugal came to be.

The water ski rushed across the ocean, the water droplets brushing against their skin and hair. Ashley Graham held tightly onto Leon Kennedy, as they continued to cross the ocean, the destructed island behind them. Osmund Saddler was dead, Ada Wong had escaped, and Leon's only mission now was to bring Ashley--the president's daughter--back home. Unfortunately, the amount of gas that was left in the ski wouldn't make it easy. Leon continued to shift his gaze forward and towards the gas meter. At any second the water vehicle would be empty. The speed of the ski slowed at an alarming rate.

"Damn," Leon whispered.

"What?" Ashley asked, tilting her head to look at his expression over Leon's shoulder.

"We're out of gas," Leon sighed.

"We're what?!" Ashley shouted with disbelief.

"Don't worry about it, I have it under control." Ashley nodded her head, becoming silent as Leon pulled out the communicator from his belt, Ingrid Hunnigan immediately appearing on the screen. "Hunnigan, we have a problem."

"It's already been fixed. A chopper is on their way to your exact coordinates. Luis Sera was able to escape from the castle and reach the helicopters extraction point before it changed its destination."

"Luis?" Leon asked puzzled.

Hunnigan nodded. "Yes. While trying to escape from the area, he was captured from the residents and apparently placed in a locked cell. He's perfectly fine though. He will be waiting in the helicopter."

"I thought he would have escaped just fine after giving me those pills."

"He tried, but there were too many of them."

Suddenly, an engine and blades cutting through air were heard in the distance. Leon and Ashley looked up to see a helicopter coming their way. "The chopper arrived. I'll talk to you later, Leon out." Leon turned off the communicator and placed it back on his belt as the chopper began to hover over the two of them. A ladder was pulled down towards them. "Ashley, you go on first."

"Okay," she replied. Reluctantly she let go the grip she had around Leon, reaching for the rope ladder. She waited until she had a steady balance before standing off the ski and beginning to climb up the ladder. Leon waited until she was a few feet up before climbing himself, taking one last look at the scenery before entering the helicopter. "Luis!" Ashley squealed, running towards the Spaniard that sat, waiting for their arrival. She jumped him into an embrace.

"Senorita, I see you made it okay," he replied, his Spanish accent rolling off his tongue. Ashley pulled away from him, holding on a warm smile. Luis averted his gaze towards Leon whom slid the chopper door close. "Amigo," Luis greeted.

Leon gave a nod. "Glad you escaped just fine."

"Like wise. Did you find my invention?" he asked.

"Yeah, we were able to destroy the Plaga that was in our bodies. How did you manage to create something like that?"

Luis smirked. "A lot of hard work and determination goes a long way. So, you two are heading off to America?"

"Yep," Ashley replied.

Suddenly, a beep was heard from Leon's communicator. Leon pulled it from his belt, putting it in his line of vision as Hunnigan's face appeared again. She adjusted her glasses before speaking. "Leon, I have some bad news."

"Do I really want to hear it?" Leon replied.

"Whether you do or not, it's my job to tell you. Headquarters has placed you into another mission. We were informed from our aerial sources that witnesses have seen the Las Plagas cross the border from Spain to Portugal."

"Why would they...?" Leon trailed off, furrowing his brow.

"They want you to investigate and destroy the source that has them traveling and annihilate any or all Las Plagas carriers."

"Understood."

"I'll have the chopper drop you off at the border and bring Ashley back home."

"Sounds good." Leon turned off the communicator and gazed towards Ashley.

Her eyes filled with worry as she approached him. "You can't go; your mission was to bring me back to America safe."

"The helicopter will bring you home safely, I have another duty to complete," Leon told her.

"I'm going with you," Luis announced firmly.

Leon averted his gaze towards him. "Are you sure?"

Luis gave a nod. "It is partially my fault the Las Plagas was awakened. I want to get rid of all ounce of it ever being in Europe, for me and for the villagers." Luis held a serious face. "I will help you complete your mission, I could be helpful since I know so much of them through my research."

"Right," Leon nodded.

"Wait a minute! You two are leaving me?" Ashley pouted.

"Don't worry, senorita. You will get home safe. With Saddler out of the way there is nothing to fear."

"But those things are still out there!" she said.

"They're probably just the few villagers that were still left in the village. They're not a problem to take care of," Leon reassured.

After a few hours they felt the helicopter slowly descend onto land. Leon and Luis had reloaded their weaponry and stock up with medical uses before sliding the chopper door open.

"You two better return back safe," Ashley spoke, a frown appearing on her face.

Leon and Luis jumped off the helicopter's edge, landing perfectly on their feet. "We'll be just fine. Have a safe journey home, got it?" Leon said, smiling and waving to her.

"You're still going to be working for my father when you get back, right?" Ashley asked, standing at the doorway.

Leon nodded. "I will." With that said Leon turned back and quickly followed after Luis, determination on his mind. Why is the Las Plagas continuing to be a problem? He just hoped that he would be able to get rid of it quickly without distraction or a great threat. He made it to Luis' side, both nodding to each other and sprinted through the border's forests.

Bonus Ending:

It was hard to watch her go, to enter the jet and be out of his life for god knows how long. Leon stared as the jet lifted up from the pavement and up in the air, it's engines roaring. He let out a sigh, closing his eyes for a moment, then opening them. A new sound was heard over the silence of the air base. A familiar noise he had heard often enough. Leon looked up as an army green helicopter made its way to the landing, slowly descending onto the black pavement. Leon frowned a bit for knowing that this was his ride back home. He walked across the area towards the helicopter, sliding open the door and stepping inside. A man was already waiting for him, possibly the co-pilot wearing a black helmet and green uniform.

"Leon Scott Kennedy?" he assumed with uncertainty. Leon gave a nod, reassuring him. "Headquarters has ordered for you to contact them immediately."

"All right," Leon replied.

The man nodded and walked back to the control area of the air vehicle. Leon entered deeper into the helicopter and took a seat. He reached for the belt around his waist, pulling out the communicator. But before he would contact headquarters, his eyes gazed over the blue ink written over his wrist. He smiled to himself, tracing the numbers with his finger as he imagined _________'s smile and the moments they shared. He glanced at it, memorizing the number in his head in case it would ever smudge or wash off accidentally. Leon took one long gaze before going back to business.

Pressing a button, he waited as the static cleared before a face of a young woman appeared on the screen.

"Hunnigan?" Leon asked.

"Leon, finally, I can get a hold of you. Something was blocking the transmission. I couldn't contact you. But you're okay, right?" Ingrid Hunnigan replied.

"Yeah, just fine."

"What did I miss?"

"The suspicions were correct. The Las Plagas had crossed the border to Portugal. Luis and I found two female citizens on vacation, both in their early twenties. The town they were staying at had been infected with the Las Plagas. We helped them escape into the forests."

"Are they fine?"

"Yeah. They just got a ride back home. Luis went along with one of the women to Canada, he's moving in with her."

Hunnigan blinked a few times. "Romantically attached?" Leon gave a nod. Hunnigan smirked, "And how about the other woman?" Leon didn't say anything, only answering Ingrid Hunnigan's question with silence. She sighed knowingly, "It's important not to become romantically involved with the survivors of your missions, you know that Leon."

He let out a sigh. "I know the rules."

"Look, I'll keep it between us, all right? The mission is over, and you were successful, right?"

"Yes."

"Then that's all that matters. Were all the Plaga specimens taken care of?"

"I think all of them have been eliminated, but there could be some more out there."

"What was the cause of their crossing the border?"

"A woman by the name of Rivera Salazar."

"Salazar? She was a member of that family?"

Leon nodded. "She was the sister of Ramon Salazar, older sister. She informed us that she was present through all events that had occurred in Spain. She took the opportunity after I killed Osmund Saddler to take the control of the Las Plagas. But her intentions were different from Saddler's."

"She wasn't interested in the Los Illuminados, I take it."

"No. She wanted to rule over Europe, avoiding every little mistake Saddler and Salazar made."

"Hm...interesting..."

"She got away though, but not after ________ cut off her arm, which had control over the Las Plagas."

"________? Is that your girl's name?"

Leon chuckled lightly. "Yeah."

"Cute. Anyway, I will inform the president about these circumstances. I heard you found a young girl too, right?"

"Yes, she was abandoned at a deserted town. Rivera used her to get to us, having to put a parasite inside her. Emily's fine now, she was sent back home."

Hunnigan nodded. "Good. The president would probably like to send in some recruits to Portugal to annihilate the remaining Las Plagas holders and find Rivera."

"Oh, by the way, she's a lot stronger then she looks. She's faster and stronger then any human, keep that in mind."

"Sure thing. Anymore information before I leave you?"

Leon sighed, running his hand through his hair. "Could you ask headquarters to keep an eye on for someone, for me?"

Hunnigan tilted her head, a little confused. "I'll try, what is it?"

"Rivera swore to take revenge out on ________. If the recruits don't get to Rivera in time, she sure will get to ________. I want to make sure she's safe at all times."

Hunnigan nodded. "I understand. I'll give them the word. Have a safe trip back home, Leon. And would you do something for me?"

"Sure."

"Try to relax and enjoy the ride."

Leon slightly smirked. "I'll try."

A News Paper Entry from Portugal

These documents were found after the destruction of the fire in a small town of Portugal. A small, pink diary was found under the ruins of one of the houses. Most pages have been burnt and difficult to analyze. The others were rewritten for your convenience. A diary of a young seven-year-old girl:

Day 1


Dear Diary,
It's me, Emily. Today, I'm going to Portugal. Mommy and Daddy wanted me to go see Grandmamma again. They wanted to come along, but they are too busy with work. I hate it when they are not with me, but that's okay. Mommy told me that Grandmamma found a doggy in the forest. She named it Pongo. I can't wait to see it! Oh, I forgot to say that I'm in an airplane right now. A woman who works as one of those people who gives food is keeping me good company. She's really nice. The food isn't that good though. Too many vegetables, yuck! After this plane lands, I'm going to get a ride from Uncle John. He speaks a little bit of English. Mommy tried teaching me some Portuguese, but it's too hard to learn. I hope I can learn more words until I go back home to America.


Day 3


Dear Diary,
I finally finished unpacking. Mommy packed so much clothes! I don't know how that fit in my suitcase. Oh, yeah. I saw Pongo! He's so cute; he looks like a polar bear! Hehe. I think he really likes me. He's fun to play with and always listens to me. Oh, I saw Grandmamma too, I'm happy she can understand what I'm saying. She used to live in America before.


Day 10


Dear Diary,
Wow! I haven't written in you for a while. Sorry, but Grandmamma and Pongo have been keeping me really busy. I'm helping Grandmamma help with the fixing of some of the old buildings. They were really falling apart! I hope that doesn't happen to Grandmamma's house. Or else I'll have no place to stay at! But I don't think that will happen. The house looks new. Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Pongo found a body of a really big nasty bug in the forest when we were playing. It wasn't moving, so I think it was dead. I threw it back into the forest. It was so icky! I'm glad there are no huge bugs like that in America. Ew, I can't believe I touched it.


Day 13


Dear Diary,
Me and Pongo found another bug thingie. But this time it was alive! We ran away from it because it was going after us. I never knew Portugal had such huge bugs in the forest. I hope I never live here. I hate bugs.


Day 14


Dear Diary,
A lot of those bugs came into the town! Everyone tried killing them all. I don't know if they killed them all yet. I'm hiding in my room right now. Grandmamma told me to stay here until she calls me out. She's afraid I might be bitten because she thinks they're poisonous. I hope she doesn't get bitten! I hear footsteps. I think she's coming to get me. I'll tell you later if all the bugs are---

The diary entries were concluded there. Here, the little girl's writing then dragged on in a struggled line. We do not know what happened to her at that precise moment when writing the last sentence. But we did find evidence of a strange yellow dried liquid absorbed in the papers along with dry blood. We could not analyze the diary any further because of the danger of it being destroyed. The whole book is now fragile, ready to crumble in a pile of ashes if mistreated. We are not sure of the whereabouts of the young girl, but sources say that she may have returned safely home. We do not know what, or who may have started the destruction of the town. No residents was found within the area. Police are still investigating.
