Frank, Todd, and their captive were moving through a medal corridor in the underground facility. Frank had the feeling that they were being watch, and stopped to tilt his head back behind him. Frank knew what, or rather who was following them.
Noticing Frank was no longer moving with them, Todd turned around to face him. "Something wrong Boss?" Todd asked, tugging Jill back from walking off.
Frank looked back toward Todd. "Take the next corridor on the right, I'm sure you remember where the holding cells are from the blueprints you studied"
"What about you?" Todd asked.
"I'll catch up later, now go" Frank ordered
"Copy that lead" Todd said nodding. "Come on Valentine" Todd hissed, pushing her ahead of him.
With Todd and his captive now out of sight, Frank now looked towards the dark corridor behind him. "You can come out now…Jaylen"
The shadow of the man now came out of sight from the darkened corridor, High powered Custom made Sniper Rifle in hand. The rifle he always carried look like something between an M24 to a an M82 50 cal, what it was for sure Frank did not know, or cared at the moment. Jaylen stopped just a few paces right in front of Frank.
"When can I take him?" Jaylen asked quietly. The low volume of his voice would probably creep out most, but not for Frank.
"Soon, first I need to know if the false objective we set solved our other problem."
Jaylen just smirked. "No, they managed to save themselves."
Frank slammed his right fist into the wall on the corridor next to him. "How the hell did they manage to take down that beast?"
Jaylen didn't even flinch to Frank's change of mood. Frank wondered if Jaylen was lying to him, but that didn't matter. He knew Jaylen would still take care of their last loose end.
"Beats me lead, I'm just informing you of the situation" Jaylen explained.
"Fine, I don't care how you do it just get rid of those two now. After you do so I'll let you get your personal revenge"
"With pleasure" Jaylen replied, now walking back into the shadows.
Franks short range radio went off as Jaylen was now long around to hear. "Cap, something wrong?" Frank asked in their private short range radio that was custom built to work within this facility.
"I need you in our lab, we have something we need to…discuss" Wesker explained, the way he did so did not sound good to frank. Wesker never sounded like this to him, something was up, and he just knew it.
"Fine, I just need to see to our captive first, as well as my partner"
"Ah yes, Valentine, I thought you assured me you had that situation under control frank" Wesker replied in his smooth like tone.
"The situation went out of control. not to worry I had everything fixed in the end" Frank assured.
"Good, good, and what about your…..Partner"
Frank smiled, as he replied "That will be fixed soon as well, I assure you"
"See to it that it is Frank, you don't want to cross me"
Frank was a little puzzled by this. "You mean cross umbrella right"
"But of course Frank, but of course" With that the link between their radios was shut off.
Frank was puzzled a little by this conversation, wondering what Wesker was up to now. For now though Frank had other problems to worry about.
Holding cells
"Get in" Todd shouted, throwing Jill in the cell, as he locked the door.
Jill ran up to the bars of the window in the cell. "Todd, Why…" Jill sobbed, as she looked to her once friend.
"Shut up, don't worry I'll kill your boyfriend when he gets here" Todd assured, keeping his back turned towards Jill.
"Your better than this Todd, you can't let your personal hate for being kicked out of the military do this to you" Jill pleaded, hoping to get Todd's attention, yet she wasn't sure if he was even listening, until he turned back towards her.
"You know valentine, I thought that was the reason at first, until I got my first paycheck…."
"Don't you dare Swint, don't you dare say that this is about money now. Your father would be ashamed if he knew what you were saying"
Todd slammed on the door, causing Jill to stumble a little back. "Don't you dare bring my father in this…this is about something more, this is about…." Todd struggled to find a reason, when the only reason he had was a bad one at that.
"Jealousy, that's what this is about Todd, Isn't it, you want to kill Chris don't you, and you seeing him with me brought you over the edge didn't it" Jill said calmly now.
"He took advantage of you" Todd shouted.
"No Todd, he didn't, if you still care about me at all you would understand that"
"Liar, you just came out of the hospital when he….."
"Because of you Todd, If I might add" Jill blurted out, cutting Todd off from continuing with his nonsense.
"I didn't want that to happen…I didn't" Todd tried his best to explain, Jill could see in a way she might be finally getting through to him.
"But it did Todd, I…..I love Chris, now please Let me out and help us"
There was silence now, if this was the moment for him to turn, than Jill would be ready. He looked like he was about to say something when someone else came from behind him.
"Everything okay in here Swint" Frank asked towards him.
Todd turned to meet him. "Yeah" He replied, shutting to window on Jill's cell to block all sound coming from the two. Todd now turned towards Frank. "Were not going to kill her, are we Frank?" Todd asked, looking really concerned now with what they had been doing.
"Wither we do or don't is none of your concern, like I said you belong to umbrella for life now. You will do as you are told" with that Todd notice Franks hands tightening around his rifle, Todd understood, and understood now more than ever that he was involved with all the wrong reasons, but for now there was nothing he could do.
"Understood…..Frank" Todd replied, giving out a sigh that looked satisfying with Frank.
"Good, I need to go see the captain, I'll be back shortly"
Somewhere else within this faculty
Sarah was pissed to say the least, whatever their objective was suppose to be in this massive lab was a dead end. "Damn" She cursed, kicking a nearby chair. "There's nothing here"
Brian huffed in equal frustration. "Sarah, let's just get out of here. Were way out of our league now" With that comment Sarah looked at Brian, as if she was surprised for some reason. "What?" Brian asked confused.
"That's the first time you ever called me by my name" Sarah replied smiling.
Sarah never smiled like that at him; to say that was weird would be a huge understatement for him. "Yeah well, don't get use to it gorgeous" with that Sarah just laughed in reply.
Sarah stood looking at Brian. "You're probably right; we should just get out of here"
"Okay who are you, and what have you done to gorgeous, she never gives up a paycheck" Brian explained, folding his arms around his shotgun.
Before Sarah or Brian could say anything else another massive gunshot, almost as loud as the one that killed the Shark from Jaylens rifle went off. Brian took cover on the ground, looking to see Sarah was still standing.
"Sarah, get down!" Brian shouted.
But Sarah didn't reply she didn't even flinch. Sarah looked to her chest, noticing the blood that was now coming out of a gunshot wound. Taking in what just happened, she slowly collapsed on the ground, with Brian catching her.
"Sarah, stay with me" Brian yelled, trying to treat to wounds to Sarah, who was now in his arms.
Before Brian could do anything else he felt someone grab him from behind, with a knife to his throat. Brian thought this was it; he thought this would be the end to everything. But suddenly the man that was holding him threw some kind of data disc on the ground besides him.
Brian now turned surprised to see Jaylen holding him. "What the hell, what kind of Monster saves someone, than turns on them a few minutes later" Brian shouted.
Jaylen just smirked. "Don't worry, she'll be fine. The bullet went cleanly through, not hitting any vital organs. I needed insurance"
"Insurance, what the fuck are you talking about? You sick fuck! You just shot her" Brian continued his vocal assault towards the man that was holding him. Jaylen wasn't surprise by this in the slightest.
"To make sure you two get out of her, and out of my way. The data disc has everything you need on Umbrella. She'll be fine, as long as you get her out of here before she bleeds out of course" With that Jaylen let Brian loose. Without even thinking Brian grabbed his Spas shotgun, looking over to where Jaylen was, but Brian surprised to see he was already gone.
"B…Brian" Sarah chocked.
Brian grabbed the data disc into his pocket, before picking up Sarah. "Hang on gorgeous, I'll get you out of here" He promised.
Brian wanted to find Jaylen and kill him with his bare hands, but right now he had to worry about Sarah. He vowed if he ever saw the man again he would surely be dead.
Tyrants lab
Frank meet Wesker In the lab he was ordered to. The way Wesker just stood looking towards the creature didn't look pleasing to Frank.
"Soemthing wrong?" Wesker asked, not even looking back towards Frank.
"No, I just don't understand what you're doing in here at the moment, we have data to secure, and you're not even suppose to be in here"
Wesker now turned towards frank. "You fool; Umbrella doesn't see what can really be at stake here. They don't see the power that I can see"
Noticing what wesker was getting at, frank tried to raise his rifle, seeing that Wesker was planning to betray umbrella all along. But before he could do so Wesker already drew his pistol, shooting Frank straight threw the chest.
Frank fell towards the ground, taking the pain of the gunshot, the bullet hit something vital that was for sure, frank wasn't sure what, but he knew he was a dead man. Wesker walked over frank, kicking his rifle aside.
"Now, your time will come frank, enjoy your last few breaths of your pathetic life" Wesker laughed in a way that sounded as terrifying as ever.
With Wesker gone frank now looked towards the other side of the lab, at a switch that could help frank get his revenge.
"You're not going to get away with this" Frank groaned in pain, crawling towards the hidden device that only a few people knew about.
Shortly after, somewhere within the corridors
Chris could feel the sharp pain coming from his leg. The gunshot wound wasn't helping at all, he knew that. He could only figure he was running on pure adrenaline at the moment. Chris stopped for a quick second, as he tightened the dressing on his leg, groaning form the pain something jumped towards him. Chris quickly raised his pistol killing what looked like an over sized spider dead on the ground. His luck was running out, this was the first time he saw some kind of freak of nature since he entered the underground facility.
Chris recovered from the situation, running towards the next corridor, when he stopped to raise his weapon towards what looked like one of those spec ops guys in black fatigues. His mask was removed, revealing his orange hair, Chris noticed the injured woman also in black fatigues in his arms.
"Don't shot, don't shot" The man screamed. "Officer, we're on the same side" He tried to explain.
The last one he met that turned out to be Todd tried the same thing, Chris wasn't falling for this game again. "Your friends said the same thing, why should I trust you"
"Listen, we're just trying to get out of here, Yeah we aren't who we say we are I'll give you that, but we aren't working for the same people the rest are"
"And who would that be, the people you're supposed to be working for?" Chris asked, not buying this man for a second.
'Umbrella" the man blurted out, Chris was not expecting that at all. "They had us securing this facility, which is theirs I might add, But We're not working for them, We got Hired by The CIA to double cross them. And to bring back evidence against Umbrella"
"Do you have this evidence?" Chris asked
"Yeah it's in my pocket, please there's no time she's getting critical by the second" The man now pleaded with Chris.
Chris wasn't sure he could trust this man, but at the moment he didn't seem like a threat, he didn't even bother pulling a weapon towards Chris. Wither he was hostile or not, he did have an injured woman in his arms, it was here and now that Chris's police side took over.
Chris lowered his weapon, pulling something out of his pocket. "Here" He said tossing what looked like a radio to the man. "When you hit the surface Radio Officer Vickers, he's our pilot. Give out Priority three-Seven, he'll come pick you up. There should be some basic medical supplies onboard to secure her, just make sure you keep that ride ready for me and my Partner, when I find her"
The man Chris still wasn't sure had been telling the truth ran quickly passed Chris. If he didn't pull a gun, even when Chris had his back towards him he must have been telling the truth. When Chris continued down the corridors he could notice the surroundings seemed more like a lab now, rather than some underground bunker. He hit the deck as Chris heard the sounds of a single gunshot. Waiting a second to hear nothing but silence Chris ran towards the lab ahead, where the gunshot had came from. Inside he could see what looked like some giant tube, holding some kind of big white like freakish creature; it was like something out of a horror flick. Looking at the ground he could see a blood trail going behind a desk. Chris followed the trail to reveal Frank Laying back against the nearby wall.
Frank noticed he was no longer alone, as he looked towards Chris. "Hay Redfield" He said, blood slowly drooling from his mouth and nose.
Chris went over to the man he once thought had been his friend, he knelt next to him. "Jesus Frank, what happened?" Chris asked
"Wesker, maniac went for his own personal gain over umbrellas" Frank explained, coughing from out blood, as he held one of his hands over a gunshot wound on his chest. "I'm not sorry you know, I did what I wanted to do"
Chris shook his head at what he was hearing. "Why frank, why?' Chris asked, trying to find a way to treat frank, but he just pushed Chris off.
"I was always with umbrella, ever since I got kicked out of the Navy seals from my Injury"
Chris noticed he was learning this for the first time. "Navy seal, I didn't know you even served"
Frank tried to laugh, but nothing but pain came from it. "Yeah, eleven years, I took a grenade close to my face, completely made me death in my right ear. Was honorably discharged, pissed as hell though. That's when Umbrella recruited me, STARS was just my cover job" Frank explained. He paused, looking as if he was thinking hard to himself about something. "He reminded me a lot of myself, that's why I recruited him"
Chris was a little puzzled. "Who?" Chris asked
"Todd" Then Name frank just mentioned made Chris's skin crawl. "Don't be so hard on the kid, hell I think he's turning back towards your side anyways, he was never really committed to our ideals any who" Frank now looked towards Chris. "We…we were great together you know, I almost thought about recruiting you, but Wesker always said it was a bad idea"
Chris just laughed to this. "Yeah, I would have turned you down instantly"
Frank smiled. "I'm sure" Franks found his eyes were getting harder to keep open. "th-this…is it, my old partner" Frank coughed out, his time was up he knew that, and he still didn't regret a thing. Frank was for umbrellas ideals from the start a true believer, he hated the government and the military one and the same for being kicked out, with hardly any benefits from serving. It was then that umbrella gave him the needs for revenge. However, he felt the need to help Chris out just this one last time. "Tell…Tell Barry it's all a bluff next time you see him…" frank said, before he started getting out his last set of breaths.
Chris shook Frank as heard as he could. "Frank, where's Jill" He shouted, doing his best to keep him awake though the whole ordeal.
"Holding…..Cells…first corridor on the left…not to…Farr….." That was all that came out of his mouth with that, he used his last breaths to help Chris, it wasn't the best lead but it would have to do for now
Noticing Frank was dead, but his eyes still open, Chris ran his hand over his face, shutting the man that use to be his friend's eyes to give him some peace.
Suddenly red lights started blinking, with alarms going all around. Chris noticed there was something in Frank's hands as he died. He took the device to reveal a switch. Chris knew that it was some sort of self destruct device.
"Glad you can join us Chris" Wesker said from the door way of the room.
Chris looked over to see Barry behind him. Chris couldn't believe Barry was with Wesker, but then Frank's last words ran though his mind.
Quickly Chris stood, meting the duo. "Barry whatever it is it's a bluff, Frank told me to tell you before he died."
"Enough!" Wesker yelled. He held his gun out towards Chris. "Now this is the end, Chris" Before he could shoot Barry hit the gun in his hand, making the gun Miss Chris, but hit to storage tank behind him.
Barry shoved Wesker into the room, looking back at Chris, as he held Wesker down. "Chris run!" Barry shouted, Chris took his one and only opportunity. With Chris now outside the lab and in the corridors he heard a gunshot come from the lab he just escaped, followed not long after with a loud scream.
…..
"You'll pay for that Barry" Wesker threatened, getting a hold back of his gun. He shot Barry through the chest. With his corpse now laying over him he threw him off.
With Barry out of the pitcher now as well, Wesker began to make his way out of the lab, when something had grabbed him. Wesker turned to see Tyrant out of its Tube, now thrusting his arm through Weskers Chest, as he screamed in pain.
One more chapter should finish up the mansion for me. I really didn't want to kill Frank to be honest, but I had to do it to someone. Just wait until enxt chapter will ya.
