The War Ends Now

by Onkwehonwe Kashatstenhshera

Following the events in 2013, the survivors of Raccoon City find themselves in Puerto Rico and eventually New York and India to stop new bio hazard epidemics and to catch the one responsible. But what about a menace they thought was gone? How will they survive as the world erupts into a third world war with the virus used as weapons by the world powers in its vortex?

48. Hui-Ying Returns

Billy

He tackled Regan and threw a hard right hooj into the older man's face. "She was all I had!" He roared. Regan grabbed his arm and flung him to the ground with a kick in the side. "Now you've got nothing!" He yelled. "The perfect soldier living only for war! And revenge. Are you man enough to take it?"

Billy got up in a rage and tackled him hitting him with four hooks to the abdomen and an uppercut. The older man grunted with each blow but he caught Billy's sixth punch and threw him again to the ground kicking him this time in the back. He rose to his feet even as the older man kicked him in the face. He staggered but regained his footing but the older man threw a hard left hook followed by a right jab. Billy tried to throw one back but the older man ducked and kicked him in the chest. "I don't think you are...you weren't man enough to handle the other boys in the jungle and you had a Rifle. You could have killed them before they ever got a chance to get you back to Dunell, boy. You could have just gone MIA. No court martial no death sentence."

Billy doubled over trying to catch his breath but Regan grabbed him by his hair. "You grew your hair out again, boy. That's a fatal mistake. Why do you think Marines keep it close? You had it cut right when I saw you last. But running off with that girl and that coward Reggie made you soft."

"I tried to do what was right..." Billy groaned. "It aint your job to do what's right. Your job is to follow orders. We keep the lesser countries in line. We don't want them to ever get power. Can you imagine if every African country had a military as strong as China? Even Korea or the UK. We do what we have to do. It's ancient history. By doing what we did over there, even if it was collateral, we were able to cover up our presense. How do you think the United States keeps its deniability?"

Billy stood up."You weren'yt there. You were safe and sound at Dunell. In your goddamn barracks watching Seinfeld you lying old son of a bitch! You didn't see the women and the children!"

"You think they matter? The guerillas over there do raids that make twenty three civilians look like a walk in the park! You talk to me as if I never fought in the fields but I did. I was in Vietnam. I was in Grenada. I was in Panama. Fighting communism. You boys had it easy. African peasant soldiers. Iraqi militias that couldn't shoot straight. Charlie was a real enemy. All you had to worry about was roadside bombs and the occasional RPG. I did my time and I didn't run. Maybe we killed twenty three people. But not everybody. They should have fought us harder. Twenty three people against four Marines. They should have been able to take all of you. By killing in one village, we made it better. We didn't have to nuke the whole goddamn country like we did in Japan. The UN finally got its shit together and took the rest of them out."

Billy glared. "They weren't charlies. They weren't commandos. They were civilians. The real bad guys got away but we turned ourselves from the good guys to the bad guys!"

"Yeah but you're still here aren't ya Billy boy? You didn't die. But the other boys did. So you say the bad guys got away what does that make you. The exception to the rule? Don't kid yourself."

Billy tackled him again but the old man drove a knee into his groin followed by an elbow to the jaw. He fell over, in disbelief that he was getting beaten this badly by a man who was a senior citizen. Even if Billy was forty six years old himself, the old man was in his sixties. Billy withdrew his own combat knife. "Never hate your enemy, Coen. It clouds your judgement. Your anger is helping me win."

He swung at him and the old man dodged it kicking his knife from his hands. Billy went to try and grab it but he kicked him. As Billy fell backwards he looked at the older man who grabbed the knife. He swung at Billy and he dodged but the knife did slash his right arm as he tried to move away. He swung again and left a slash across the chest. Billy tackled him grabbing the knife by the handle. He head butted Regan and took the knife from him. "The stone key. Give it to me," Billy said trying to focus. He punched Samuel sending him back but only after a roundhouse to the gut.

"Ah so that's what this is about. Are you sure? You sure this isn't about revenge?"

"I wish it was just about you and me. But I need that key. Wesker...you don't know what you're getting into with him."

"I know he has the key to making better soldiers. One day, we will be able to prevent more Marines from dying. That mission in Africa...see you care more about the lives of some third world barbarians who were living in mud huts. I care about the lives of my men who died out there. The ones who were killed in the jungle. Fighting. Back when you were still a man. Fighting like a true Marine. One of you is worth twenty of them. If i could have taken away the risks for the good boys who died I would. Hell I wish I would have met Wesker back in Mekong. We might have won back then. But it's always bleeding hearts like you that ruin it."

"No..." Billy began. "It's redneck assholes like you that give the Corps a bad name. You may have fought in Nam but this wasn't Nam. It wasn't half of a country. It was a few thousand terrorists terrotizing the majority of the country. And you wanted to blame the people for it."

"You spineless shit sack. Do you even know what happened after your court martial, soldier? Do you even recall what happened before that when they knocked you out? Those remaining villagers didn't die because they told us where the rest of the commandos were headed. If they would have cooperated before, they would have all lived."

"Think what you want, Regan. You're going to give me that stone."

"You want a handout? I'll tell ya what. Winner gets the stone."

He went to his pack and put it down on the ground. "Come get it, boy..." Billy tackled him again and they went through a pair of double doors. Billy would go back for the stone when he was done with him. He slashed the older man across the cheek but the old man started to hurl him down a flight of stairs. Billy pulled him down with him and they rolled down.

They hit the stairs rolling down. Billy hit the bottom first with a broken rib. Regan pulled out his Handgun from his pant leg. He'd had a spare. It was a .45 and he fired two shots one striking him in the left knee and another in the right shin. He fired a third shot into Billy's stomach. He fell over bleeding and the Marine pointed the weapon into his face. "The rules of warfare is that you change the rules of engagement. You never seemed to get that."

Billy kicked him in the side and the round went off and though it largely missed him, it tore past his cheek ripping the flesh. He grabbed the knife stabbing Regan in the stomach. The two grappled for control of the blade. The gun discharged two more times.

Regan was weaker as a result of blood loss and having been stabbed but Billy was also weaker as a result of the gunshots. He removed the blade and stabbed him again and then removed it causing Regan to bleed more. Another went off and he took it in the chest even if only partly but he fell away with the Handgun.

He fired hitting Regan where his belt was. The man fell over bleeding. He remembered there was still a round in the chamber. He readied it aiming at him from the floor. "Attaboy, kid...you can do it...you might as well do it...you aint living through that. Those are armor piercing rounds. Custom made."

Billy shook his head. "That's better than you deserve. I'd rather watch you bleed like a stuck pig. See who dies first."

Regan coughed up blood. "I guess...neither one of us gets the stone...you aint stopping Wesker...I'm glad to die for my country..,.for the future..."

"You're not the future, Regan. You're the past...a dinosaur just like me. At least I have the ability to see it..."

Billy attempted to climb back up the stairs and it pained him to do so. He carried Regan's gun up with him. He winced with each step. He could feel it was getting harder to breathe. Regan was trying to crawl the other way, perhaps for another gun. He aimed at the man in case he would try and find another weapon. He saw Regan finally pass out. He was dying of septic death. He tried to make it up the stairs. He had to get to the stone.

He heard the sound of people going in. "Rebecca! Can you hear me?!" He heard Chris's voice. Billy felt some relief however. If they could find her they'd find the stone. He was tired of fighting. He had nothing left in him. He let himself fall down the stairs hitting his head on the way down. He tried to hold onto the gun but it fell from his hands as he fell down. Still luckily it landed a few steps up from the bottom as he hit the bottom with a thud. He coughed up blood as he could feel he had internal bleeding.

He didn't see any way he would make it. He would need surgery to do it and maybe Rebecca could have pulled something off like this but she was gone and he doubted they had any way to help him. All though they were his comrades and in a way he knew they were on the same side, he was close to Rebecca only. And Reggie. He didn't have the same friendships with any of them to the degree that Leon and Chris did.

Maybe Regan was right. He had nothing left. He only had the fight and now he was unable to do that anymore. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he thought about Rebecca. Her smile, her laugh, the feel of her skin, her lips. He cared about the others too but they weren't enough to keep him here. "I'm sorry princess...I'm so sorry..."

He put the gun in his mouth and he closed his eyes. He thought of her laying next to him, smiling as she had the many times theyd been together. In those moments, nothing else mattered. Not the Corps, not the zombies, the leeches, the hostile terrains. He fired the last shot he would ever fire.

Jill

She joined Chris at Rebecca's side. Reggie was deceased from a gunshot wound to the head and it was clear he was gone. She checked Rebecca's pulse. She was alive but just barely. She heard a sound in the other room, a thud. Chris began to give her CPR himself. She approached the door with her Walther P99 readied. She put her hand on the door. She thought she heard speaking as she put her hand on the door. Her heart skipped a beat as she heard a gunshot. She opened the door going down the stairs. She saw bloodstains all the way down. At the bottom she saw an older Caucasian male with gray hair and a wrinkled face. He had stab wounds and bullet wounds in the abdomen and he was laying on his side.

She put a hand over her mouth as she saw Billy's body at the bottom. He had committed suicide. She searched the room finding nothing else of any use. She went back upstairs and to her surprise, she saw Rebecca had been brought back. She was unconscious from the wound from before but she was alive. Chris was tending to her head wound. "Regan...he shot me...and Reggie...where's Billy?" She asked looking at Chris who looked at Jill. He saw the distraught look on her face. She shook her head at him. Chris interpreted her expression and turned back to her. "i don't know. There's no sign of him or Negan..." He told her.

"We...we have to look for them..." She insisted. "Nothing down there," Jill lied. "Just a few scattered shell casings. Wherever they went, he's fighting."

Rebecca smiled with hope, "You think...you think he made it?"

Jill smiled and said, "He's a fighter. I don't see him going down without taking Regan with him."

"I heard...part of what they were saying...I tried to get up but I was too weak...something about a stone..."

Sheva picked up a stone. "Is this the one?" Rebecca looked at it trying to sit up but Chris insisted, "Save your strength."

Sheva and Jill examined the stone. It had a symbol of a palm with a wheel in the middle.

"What is this?" Asked Jill. Sheva told her, "That's the symbol for Jainism. The hand with a wheel on the palm symbolizes Ahimsa in Jainism. The word in the middle is Ahiṃsā. Non injury. The wheel represents the dharmachakra, which stands for the resolve to halt the saṃsāra through relentless pursuit of Ahimsa."

Jill looked at the stone with fascination but said, "Kind of ironic for a general..."

Just then she heard a familiar voice. "You need more. I have one of them,"

Jill looked to see Carlos. "You're alive!" She hugged him and he hugged her back. "How did you find us?"

"It's a long story...kind of. But I discovered what these stones are forby accident. You're lucky I got here. The one I got was all the way on the other side of the world. Krauser has one, and Jake should have one too."

Jill asked him, "How do you know?"

He sighed, "All right...there's not much time but I'll spin it for you as fast as I can."

He handed her the stone as he began to speak. She looked at the image on it. It had a symbol of the Dharma wheel. Carlos

March 17, 2017

They had taken control of most of the country. They still had a long way to go but the ALF had a lot more power now than it had in 2013 when they had lost nearly all of their Carribbean members. Carlos through many battles along with his compatriots, began to topple the Criollo run government of Colombia. They had stormed Peru declaring the Andes to be Quechan land once again and no longer subject to the government of the colonials and had topped the government in Lima setting seige to the city and ALF had annihilated groups such as the Shining Path as well. Groups like the FARC were destroyed in Colombia as the peasants of the countryside took vengeance upon them and the government that tolerated them. They put the torch and gun to the Brazilian construction companies. He had personally slaughtered over thirty five loggers working on deforestation.

In Mexico, the ELZN had taken over over 1/3 of the country, a slow but steady advance, with mestizos coming back to their roots joining with their pure blooded brothers and sisters. They had struck fear into the Gachupine remnants who had been occupying Meso America since the days of Hernan Cortez and the Castizos who held privillege over the majority of the nation.

The Knights Templar cartel in Michocan had been demolished with the help of Purepecha members of the ALF they struck a final decisive blow a second time. The Zetas and Sinaloa cartel had also had their members massacred by the thousands like the terrorists they were in addition to the government who looked the other way for decades.

Carlos looked at a picture from his wallet and admired the family he had started with Sonya. By him, she had two girls, twins and a boy. She was was with them in an ALF compound under heavy guard. One thousand ALF members were guarding a fort they had seized from the army. While it wasn't entirely safe anywhere, he felt better about her having that many people watching out for her. He had just one job left to do before the country would be entirely free again. There had been word that Manuela, despite knowing the evil her father had committed in the past, had tried to start the Sacred Snakes again.

She had over the years chosen to embrace her father's gift to her. She had used much research in South America, at Wesker's disposal to find a way to be able to control the virus within her even while developing her abilities more. There had been outbreaks all over the country and Medellin lay in ruins because of it. He had thought it was entirely Wesker and the Family causing this but it seemed she was his eyes and ears in South America. So far about 40,000 people had perished as a result of viral outbreaks in Colombia mostly in the cities. The outbreaks were far worse in Argentina, Guyana, Chile, and Trinidad & Tobago had gotten the worst outbreaks in and around the continent with 79%% of the population decimated by it.

In Argentina, 95% of the population was destroyed while 88% of Chile's population was destroyed by the plague. In Guyana, 75% of the population had been wiped out. With the exception of the USA which had the worst amount of outbreaks in North America in addition to parts of Mexico and Canada, it seemed these South American countries had all suffered the worst outbreaks. In fact, it was worse since in the United States, half the population still remained, about one hundred and fifty million.

Carlos knew this was the handiwork of Manuela and she was the one he was on his way to face. He would face her alone. He knew she had been attacking countries that their rebellion lacked influence in rather than ones that did have it. This was why Venezuela, Paraguay, Uruguay, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, among others had done better. It wasn't just because of the fact that the ALF was trying to protect people as the BSAA had. It was also because the largest number of BSAA agents in what had once been South America's BSAA branch, had joined the ALF and brought with them their training and experience in combat.

He'd tortured a member of the Family to get Manuela's whereabouts and he had gotten what he was after but the man had also given him information as to something in Manuela's possession that would be needed to stop not only her but the Family world wide.

He spotted the Caucasian woman on the hill overlooking the city. He had with him an AK-12, a Beretta M92F and a Benelli Super 90 Shotgun. She was wearing a white dress. "¡Manuela Hidalgo! Si quieres vivir, dame la piedra!"

(Manuela Hidalgo! If you want to live, give me the stone!)

She turned around with a sneer. "Habla inglés, Carlos. Después de todo, usted vivió en los Estados Unidos muchos años."

(Speak English, Carlos. After all, you lived in the United States too many years.)

He replied, "I'm back puta. I've been back for years. Do you have any idea what Albert Wesker is up to? He's insane. He'll destroy the entire world. I read the Kennedy report about you. In 2002 you weren't happy with what Javier and the cartel did to the innocent people he slaughtered. Why the change?"

"Life...is a gift. I didn't see it before because I was a child. I see it now. Men like Leon S Kennedy would have you believe that what was done to me was not natural. But without it I would have died. He would not have been able to assassinate my father if it wasn't for me showing them where to go...I betrayed my father...I must make it right..."

"So what are you going to do? Keep destroying all the countries around here? Just to prove a point?"

"No. I am leaving South America. There is nothing but poverty and death here. Ever since mi padre died...Albert has kept in contact with me just like he did Krauser the next two years after...my destiny is with him. At his side. The daughter of a God. That makes me a goddess doesn't it?"

"Manuela, I lost my family in the war against the Sacred Snakes. It broke me in half but I had to move on. I started my own family, here. You need to move on too..."

"No. All though I will never come back, Leon Kennedy is there in the mountains. I'm going there to exact vengeance."

Carlos told her, "That's not happening. I need that stone. Wesker is the reason for all of your pain. He turned your father into a monster. Even more of one than he was. You could use your powers for good. Leon is right. This is not natural."

She laughed wickedly. "The fact that there are old people anymore at all is not natural! Nursing homes and oxygen tanks. This defeats the purpose of Darwinism to weed out the weak. Now even the weak can survive. And it has brought nothing but regression to humanity. It used to be that an old man was thought to be wise because he had survived the dangers of nature and could pass his knowledge to the next generation. Now, any lazy boboso can survive! No...those girls that to die so that I could live because they were weak. And I was weak but their weakness provided me sustenance. Y yo soy mas fuerte."

"No, all you are in insane," She held the stone up. "Transformation. Verdaderamente una vista."

He fired his AK-12 hitting her in the right hand and she dropped it. He let off eleven more rounds hitting her in the breasts. Her white dress began to turn red. He hit her with ten more rounds in the stomach and aimed up for her head. She began to mutate even as he emptied an entire magazine into her. Her mutated form, like her father resembled that of the Anubis BOW and the Jabberwock S3, combined with the V Complex. He'd thought these species had been extinct but it seemed they weren't. Not as long as she lived.

He reloaded letting off thirty rounds at the thing that had once resembled a woman backing up as she came at him. It began to sprout several tentacles and two of them knocked him back and a third pierced into his side. He cried out in pain as this happened. Another grabbed him by his left leg lifting him up and he dropped the Rifle and it seemed as though she might consume him but he removed the Bowie knife in the sheath near his boot. He seized it and stabbed at her tentacle cutting it open and greenish acid oozed out as she dropped him.

He was further wounded by the drop but he grabbed his Rifle and fired ten rounds at the next pair of tentacles that tried to grab him. He let a burst of rounds go at its bulbous mouth emptying the rest of the sixty round mag. He needed to reload and he had a drum magazine in his backpack but he had to hold her back. He fired his Shotgun with two blasts destroying another tentacle. Just then, he heard voices yelling. He looked to see six ALF members three men and three women. They were rushing in to help him. It seemed they had followed him.

"¡Ayuda a Carlos! ¡Fuego!" Yelled a female soldada.

They all opened fire with their AK variantds attacking the beast while he tried to rise to his feet. "¡No! ¡Quédate atrás!" He warned.

(No! Stay back!)

They opened a hell storm of rounds on Manuela. However, in a sweep of one tentacle she swept up one rebel and with a pull, consumed him. One of the rebels,Rafael, a man from Bogota with wavy hair, brown skin and a muscular frame wearing a red t shirt and white pants yelled, "¡Diablo!" At Manuela as he emptied his magazine into her. As he reloaded, however, it spat acid at him and hit him in the face with it. It melted the skin from his face.

"¡Ella mató a Rafael! ¡Mátala!" Screamed a female rebel as she aimed for the things face. It was both strengthened from the one it had consumed as well as Rafael after having already killed him, but also weakened by the ammo they were unloading into her. Carlos knew however that this was a double edged sword. The fact that there were more of them meant fuel for Manuela."

Carlos discharged his shotgun emptying every round until he had to reload that too. He took the time to do so while the others distracted her. He reloaded the AK-12 and put the 100 round magazine in. By the time he had done this however, Manuela had already consumed one of the women and ripped another in half with two tentacles only to absord her as well. Soon, they were down to just himself and another rebel, a woman named Rachel. "Carlos! ¡Tengo un lanzador de cohetes a 100 metros de aquí! ¡Yo la sostendré!"

(Carlos! I have a rocket launcher 100 yards from here! Go!I I'll hold her off)

He ran back the way they had come. He fired his rounds at her as he retreated and so did Rachel. He grabbed the rocket launcher. It was a LAW. Manuela grabbed Rachel by the throat and snapped it. Carlos went forward. She had killed her but she would not allow her to consume her. He fired and the blast hit Manuela dead on.

The blast blew the thing to pieces and it began to shrivel back to her human form. He got up from the ground as the blast had thrown him back. He made his way to it seeing if the stone was okay. He noticed Manuela looked human again and there was a sadness in the one eye she had left. Half her face was burnt to a crisp and she had lost all of her limbs. "I...don't want to live anymore.,..you were right...I once told Leon this...when he killed my father but he would not let me die...take the stone..."

Carlos looked down at her. "Gracias..."

"I have one more thing to tell you. If you don't tell Leon this, he will die..."

She whispered into his ear. "I'll tell him..." He promised her. "As soon as I can get out there, I'll tell him."

She begged him, "Now please...show me the mercy my father never did...end my suffering...I am sorry for all the suffering I caused...maybe it can end with me..."

He pointed his pistol into her face. He pulled the trigger and he saw she was no more. He remembered all those he had over the years to the Sacred Snakes. He fired fourteen more shots into her. He then grabbed the body of Rachel and carried her down the hill.

Jill

Upon hearing this, she asked him, "That's really what she told you?Okay...that's not good."

"Yeah. Tell me about it. Where is Leon now? I need to try and find him. To warn him."

"He's probably trying to find another way into this base. He's with Ada so he probably found a way by now."

"All right...I need to find him."

He left the room to go back outside. "Carlos! Be careful. You have a family to look after now," She said with a smile at learning that he had a wife and children. Two twin girls aged two and one boy aged 6 months. He nodded saluting her.

Sheva turned to Jill and said, "If jake has the last one and we don't know where he is, how will we get to him?"

"He hasn't one far. I'll find him," Chris vowed. "You leave that to me. In the mean time keep a lookout for Leon, Ada and Claire. If they encounter Krauser, it'll be dangerous for them. I wish Claire wasn't even along for this."

"She's a fighter just like you," Jill told him. "Even if she wanted to heal people too, it doesn't mean she's not a warrior."

"I know but she's my sister..."

Just then, Chris's PDA went off. "Steve, what is it?"

"I have some very bad news. And good news but it's not great news."

Chris sighed, "All right what's the bad news?"

"I don't know how it happened but Sherry Birkin was kidnapped by the Family."

"Does Jake know?"

"I don't know. But the slightly good news is, she was brought to that base you're at. The only problem is, there's a lot of BOW's between her and you. It doesn't really add up though. If Jake is already on his side, why kidnap her?"

"i don't know but I'll keep you posted as soon as I know anything."

He got off the PDA. Jill sighed readying her weapons. She had with her an MP5, a Milkor MGL Grenade Launcher and a Glock 17.

Chris had a G36, a Sig P226, and a Spas 12. Sheva had an AK-74, a .44 Desert Eagle, and an H&K PSG1. Sheva told the two of them, "Don't be reckless. Neither one of us can afford to be. You two have a child of your own. In addition to Zuri and Sarah."

Chris smiled. "I know."

Sherry

She couldn't believe that she was captured. It wasn't like it was the first time but even so. Neo Umbrella in China was a far cry from being kidnapped by the Family, led by easily the most evil man alive. Chris, Leon and Claire had all wanted her to stay out of this fight and initially she had. She was tire of fighting BOW's. Even despite this seemingly being the end of the world, she felt some relief when she was back with Annette and William. There was brightness in them both. An innocence. They were smart but they were still void of the darkness that their father and grandfather. On either side. It was a miracle, in fact. They had none of the darkness of their grandmother either.

She teared up as she looked at a picture of them where she was holding them that Claire had taken. The tears dripped to the picture. She sniffed fearing that she might never see them again. She didn't know where she had gone so wrong. She had thought Jake was a good person when he had finally turned a new leaf. He had only asked for a small amount of money for the mission. She smiled thinking about how difficult it had been in Europe and Asia.

I thought you were an asshole for wanting 50 million back there but you earned it. After all that we went through, I wouldn't have blamed you one bit if you had taken the original price. But then you went above and beyond and proved me wrong. You really did turn a new leaf for a time.

She cried more putting the picture away as it broke her heart too much to see it. She knew there was only one of two ways this would end and it would either end with her dying or possibly still never seeing her children again and that was worse than death. Or she would somehow escape and kill Wesker, or maybe the others were if they were around still, but Jake would be killed too. Their son and daughter would have to go without a father.

The door to her cell opened up and she looked to see him. Her eyes welled with tears but she slapped him. "You've got some nerve! How could you betray us? Betray me?!"

Jake sighed. "If you give me a chance, I'll explain."

She snarled, "What possible excuse could you have that I'm going to believe? That I'd want to hear? You betrayed us. All because you wanted revenge. I thought you were one of the good guys, Jake. You did something at the end of our mission that took me off guard. But then you went to kill Chris and for what? Something he didn't even know he did. And you killed good people who were helping try and defeat Wesker. You think you're the only person to not have a father? To lose their mother?"

He looked down. "You got to know your parents. You had them for twelve years. I had my mom for a lot of my life but I was already starting to lose her. Do you know what it's like to watch her waste away in front of you? Your mother and father made bad choices just like mine did. But they were dead pretty quickly. Mine was dying for years and I always had the idea that I could save her and I was so close but then I was too late. I was too far away...and he was too far away! I get that I've done bad things. My dad did bad things. Your parents did bad shit. But my mom was a good woman. She was all I had. Chris took her from me. He might not have meant to but actions have reactions. He killed my mother. I killed him. Or at least I thought I did. But I didn't lay a finger to you."

"No, you're just siding with the people who kidnapped me. For your father. Who wasn't even there for you. Who doesn't eve care about you. He'll probably ask you to kill me too. And you know that whole thing about how he might have saved your mom if he'd been alive to do it is a lie. How was he going to pay for her surgery? Would that be before or after he launched Uroburos into the stratosphere? How do you know that wouldn't have killed her? I'm sorry about your mother, Jake. Really, i am but you need to move on."

"You don't know that she would have died. She and my dad are the ones that made me and I was born with these antibodies without even having the virus in me. How do you explain that? Maybe she would have been one of those humans that were meant to survive the virus. As much as I miss her, it's not true to say he abandoned me. He didn;t know about me. She migrated to the United States and then left..."

"You're making excuses for him! Back in China you wouldn't shut up about how awful he was and how much you don't want to be like him and you were on the right path but now you're doing everything you said you were against about him. You're selfish, Jake! And as for your antibodies, Wesker may not have been injected with the T virus and it wouldn't have impacted him getting your mother pregnant but he was still one of two survivors of Project Wesker. Your antibodies are from that. He was genetically toyed with when he was a child. Face it. You're the son of one human and one monster. It's up to you who you choose to follow. And you've chosen."

"We have no way of knowing that now. Whether she could have survived without that asshole killing him. He wanted me to ask you to join us...the truth is he wants to kill you I think unless I can convince him you're on board. He's...he knows you're William Birkin's daughter and that buys you some credibility. He considers your DNA to be better but it's your mind he's not sure about. I want you to join us. We need to secure a place for you and me no matter what happens, Sherry. We have to be ready to adapt to whatever comes next."

She shook her head. "Unbelievable. You think I'm going to join you? You think I would join you? Join him?! Do you even think farther ahead than your own selfish motives? Killing Chris to help Wesker might solve your revenge but it won't stop a madman from destroying the world. Is it worth it to see everybody no matter how good or bad erased because of a virus released by a lunatic? How many more women like your mother will die because of him? How many more of you will he create?"

"Stop!" He cried out sharply. He tried to hide it but he was in tears thinking about his mother. "What's so great about this world anyway? Who says it deserves to survive? Maybe I'll kill him after he launches everything...maybe he deserves to die maybe we all do! What could be so great about a world where what happened to me and you exists? Your parents were monsters. My father was a monster thats what they tell me. And you look at me like I'm a monster. So what's worth saving, Sherry? Your dad gave you abilities too, remember? You wouldn't have survived that crash in Europe without it. So is a little bit of bad to do some good justified? Maybe nothing needs to be saved and nobody human or formerly human deserves to live and shape the world."

She looked at him feeling as though she had broken through. "But Jake! That's the thing. If humans go extinct, whether or not it's a better world won't be relevant. That's like when you move out of your house and wonder if the neighborhood got better since you left. It doesn't matter. What does matter is what we do here and now. Just through what you did to Chris, whether you realize it or not, turned the tide of this war and for a long time we were losing because of it. The BSAA became outlawed, blamed for what it didn't do and they were hunted down like the same terrorists they once fought to protect us from. Wesker didn't do that on his own. You helped him do this."

"It's too late for me to take back what I've done. Maybe I shouldn't even be here. He's going to try and kill you if you don't at least try to play along. And if he does that, I won't have much reason to be alive either. I used to live for my mother then I lived for myself now I live for you. Even if you don't love me anymore, what you are to me hasn't changed. Maybe my own death will be the only thing that can right the wrongs I've done."

She told him, "Jake...look at me."

He avoided her gaze. "Look at me!" She repeated. He finally did. "It'll be hard for the others to accept but if you do the right thing then it won't matter what you did then. Only what you do now. You talk about the things my parents and yours did wrong and you';re right. But you asked me what's worth saving? You and me are not like our fathers. We don't have to be. Even you can still change. Even with evil people there's a chance at doing the right thing. I'm living proof of that and so are you. Chris might not forgive you. Or Claire. Or Jill. But the good you did giving your blood up for a cure, that's still larger than anything bad you did. Don't go so far you can't come back! If that's what you're worried about then come back to us...come back to me before it's too late!"

He looked down, "I'm going to let you out of here. You can escape if you hurry. I'm going to face him alone. Whatever happens to me, happens. Thats how I'll make up for it. Chris won't have to do a thing."

"Jake!" She said standing up. "This is what makes it worth living," She showed him the picture of their two children. "These are your children. Our children. Annette and William. Just like your dad, you didn't know about them so you weren't around and it's not your fault. I named them after my parents because despite all that they did I believe they still loved me. And I remember when they were good before everything that happened. You didn't ever have a point where Wesker was a normal father to you. He's not your father in any way other than biologically. I remember the good in you too. They need you...I need you. You have the same chance to help your children just like you said he would have helped you. You don't know if your mom could have been saved and you don't know if he would have helped you. But you do know that you have a choice now..."

He looked at the picture and he knew they were his. Theirs. She looked at him, her blue eyes flashing in demand. "What are you going to do, Jake?"

Leon

The three of them made their way into the base through a window on a higher floor. They were lucky to have found it but Ada hook shotted them both up there. They were rolling in heavy and they would need to be if they were going to destroy this base. They had as many weapons as they could carry. He had a RG-6 Grenade Launcher, a CZ 805 BREN and a Mossberg 590.

Ada had an H&K MP5, a Browning Hi-power and her crossbow. Claire had a Beretta with fifteen rounds, an AK-74, and a Remington MSR. They got in and started to move through the second floor. "You sure Wesker's gonna be here? Jill seemed convinced of it but we should be sure. So far I've mostly seen soldiers."

"There's infected out there too. He's here."

"The whole world is infected. This war isn't helping," Claire also assure him, "Yeah, I think he's here. The only question is what he's up to. Whatever it is though, it can't be anything good. We have to stop him. This is worse than Kijuju, Raccoon, Lanshiang, and anything else we've seen so far."

"Agreed. The sooner we level this place the better. But we're going to have to rig the explosives on a timer so we have a chance to get out of here. And Wesker can't know about them either."

They made their way down a hallway and saw a gray skinned zombie. Ada aimed at it saying, "I've got this one," She fired her Browning hitting it with four rounds in the abdomen and two in the chest, The thing shook but it began to shake as it fell over. She watched with concern as its skin begam to change and it began to mutate. Its skin turned to sone and it grow significantly in size. "What the hell..." Leon gasped and he started firing his BREN at the thing. The rounds did nothing to stop it. It charged at him and smacked into him. It sent him flying back and he hit his back hard on the wall.

It let out a loud roar. Ada and Claire fired rounds upon it as well. It punched into a wall obliterating it and it came closer to them. "We don't stand a chance against this thing. We have to run!" Leon exclaimed. Claire and Ada helped him to his feet while Ada fired an explosive bolt at the thing. The blast seemed to do some damage taking off a few chunks of flesh from its back its shell cracked and blood and tissue beneath the cracked first layer of skin was exposed but it roared in a rage punching the floor causing it to shake knocking her to the ground.

Leon fired his Rifle at the crack in the things back but it charged at him. Ada grabbed him and fired the hook shot at yhhe ceiling and it just barely missed. Claire wasted no time. She fired her AK at its back trying to cause more damage and she saw it bleed more but it turned around coming for her. It grabbed her in its gigantic arms and began to squeeze her. She cried out in pain as it did. "Leon...he..help...me...pl...ahhhh!" Ada fired the hookshot into its back and it went right where the chink in the armor that was its flesh was. It howled in pain and dropped Claire to the ground who fell accidentally cutting her right arm on a jagged piece of debris.

Ada climbed up onto its back onto its shoulders with her MP5 and unloaded into its face. It seemed to annoy it and it did some damage but it did not bleed so much as cause more fiorce related damage as though they were throwing a ball at its face instead. An annoyance, perhaps even a deterrence, even if only temporarily but it was not deadly.

A round hit it in the left eye and she saw it bleed but it closed its other eye which was protected by its stone like eyelid. It grabbed Ada and sent her flying back. She had the wind knocked out of her and Leon could see this. Claire weakly got up and tried to put some distance between herself and it. Leon fired his shotgun at the thing trying to hit it in the other eye to blind it but it held a hand out. "Jesus! It's more persistant than El Gigante!"

He helped Ada to her feet and Claire fired her Remington from twenty five feet away hitting it in the back. This caused more damage and it dropped to one leg. Ada got her hook shot and she fired it at the ceiling and hung from it emptying her MP5 at its back. She placed her legs on either side of the ceiling and call in the narrow hallway as she did. It roared in a blind rage swinging up at her and she fired until she was empty as she rappelled away from the thing.

Its large limb took the ceiling out as it jumped up to try and swat her and the ceiling in that part of the hall collapsed and a huge chunk of it split downward. Claire fired a round at the back of its head which bounced off doing no damage other than angering it and maybe giving it a headache. It swung at her but it was disoriented. Ada fired two more bolts into its back. Claire got clear and the explosions went off. It fell over to its knee again and she fired two more. Then another. Leon lost count as she fired several more rapidly. A chain of exlosions went off and it roared falling dead finally as the explosions had not only gotten through its back layers but had also broken through its skull and its brains were oozing out of the back of its head.

Claire looked at it with horror. "Just when I think I've seen the worst of anything Umbrella created they never cease to amaze me," She remarked. "I can't believe these things used to be human..."

"Ateneniáhrhon. The tribe back in the states had a name for them. Stone coat."

"Yeah I'll just go with stonecoat..." Leon said, admitting he had a hard time saying it even if Ada didn't. Claire told them, "Chris and Sheva fought one of these things. They didn't say it was this hard though and I think it was already weakened by the BSAA when they faced the one they encountered,"

"We don't have the luxury of help from the BSAA. We have to get a move on. Whatever Wesker is planning it'll be nuclear. We can pretty much guarantee that."

They made their way down the hall. Claire suggested, "We need to make sure we get the explosives distributed evenly enough to level this place. I'm not crazy about the environmental damage this is going to do to the area but one mountain that most people have never tried to climb to the top of anyway getting radiated is better than the entire world getting radiated or infected."

Leon looked at her saying, "I don't think we should split up. We should stick together. Chris and the others will be here soon too if they're not already. Plus Billy and Rebecca. They should be helping set charges. If we run into Wesker we'll need as many of us together if we run into him instead of Chris finding him."

Claire insisted, "We can cover more ground on this floor and other floors if we split up. The two of you can stick together but I'm going to go another way. Steve told me about a certain room that Wesker has that is a lot like one of the ones my brother dealt with in Africa."

"What room?" Leon asked. "If Steve is so concerned about it, why isn't he here to deal with it himself?"

Claire sighed. "Leon, I don't want to argue. Can you just trust me on this one? We've had our differences but you know I know what I'm doing and I can takre care of myself."

"Leon, let her go. You and I have work to do anyway."

"All right...but if anything bad happens, anything worse than usual, you contact us," She nodded. "I will. Thanks."

She headed off going her own way. He said a silent prayer in his head that she would be okay. They tried several rooms not finding much. They were lucky their pack was still stable and the explosives were still good enough for use after the fight with the Stonecoat. "I hope she's okay...if she runs into more of those things she doesn't have the bolts like you or this," He said referring to his grenade launcher. "You're just going to have to do what she said and trust her," The Chinese American told him.

They made their way through several more hallways and went through more doors until they found their way into a nuclear reactor room. "Shit...I was hoping this wasn't really a nuclear base...just a regular Family base. We don't even have hazmat suits," He said with worry. "I know but it's a risk we're going to have to take. Besides, we have these. We can put these on. Let's just say I have my ways of getting them," She assured him. "And all the others have them."

"I know," He said. "Just better safe than sorry."

She checked her ammunition. She had thirty-seven bolts total, eight explosives twenty-nine normal ones, plus for the MP5 she had five forty round magazines plus two drum magazines which had a hundred in each. For her pistol which carried 13, after having reloaded, she had 10 spare magazines including the one in the gun. Leon had six tube magazines for the shotgun which amounted for forty-eight rounds. He had three box magazines which was 100 rounds each plus two thirty round box magazines and he had thirty more in his current magazine.

In addition to this, he had eighteen more rounds for the grenade launcher besides the six already in there. They both were carrying a lot.

"You think this is enough to take Wesker down?" He asked her. "I'm, not sure," She told him honestly. "Wesker's hard to kill. Chris came closer to it than anybody else but even he didn't. It wasn't for lack of trying. Wesker just seems to always be one step ahead of everybody else. That's the one thing I've always had over Wesker. I've alwayds been one step ahead of him."

"Yeah well Chris has the most reason to still. He killed Barry. That's his best friend. He knows him best."

"We've both worked with him. Wesker betrayed Chris and I betrayed Wesker. The problem is, as much as I know Chris is a good soldier, I don't know if he's a good enough warrior to take Albert down."

"What do you mean by that?" Leon asked. He didn't understand it. He respectec Chris. "He was told to stand down back in Kijuju. He went after Wesker anyway and Jill on his own accord. I would have done the same thing if I was in his shoes. As a matter of fact, if it was you in Jill's place and it was down to me and Claire I would have gone after you too. Regardless of what Hunnigan or anybody else would have told me. I think that says Chris will go against his orders if he knows it's not what';s for the best."

"That might be true but he doesn't seem to be able to kill his partner. We know Chris has frozen up in the past. He's lost teams under his command. UI'm not sayiung he's not a good fighter or a good leader. He is but everybody has their limits. He's getting older now. He's losing his edge. He wasn't able to kill Jill when she was brainwashed. Now maybe that's for the better. In fact, it is. But what if there was no saving her? Sometimes somebody can be too far gone. I know Sherruy cared about her parents but Annette wouldn't listen to reason and William was a monster. Sherry wouldn't have been able to kill her father if it was up to her at the time."

"Of course not. She was a little girl."

"That's not what I meant. Even now she would have struggled with it. Look at how Helena almost got you both killed because she couldn't let go. Chris and her had the same Post Traumatic Stress over what happened. Her to her sister and Chris to his team. Sometimes, you need somebody cold and detached to handle a situation. That's wher I come in. I know how to get under Wesker's skin. Chris might not be able to look past the fact that Piers is still the body he's inside of. Chris was brought back to life. Maybe he thinks there can be some miracle of science to help Piers too. But it's different. The virus kept Chris alive when he was at deaths door. It was like a viral jump start. But Wesker has been inside Agent Nivans for too long. There's nothing else there but him."

"So what are you saying, Ada? If I was the way Jill was in Africa and you didn't think there was any way to help me, you'd kill me?"

"If there was no way to help you, I would. You would do the same for me. Let's be honest, We might care about each other but I'm a realist. And if the situation were different and it was me under Wesker's control and it was you and Claire instead of Chris and Sheva who was coming for me, I doubt Claire would have as much reason to try as you. She might go along to help you out and keep you from getting killed but she wouldn't care if I was alive. She would kill me if nessecary. And now...I'm not so sure you would kill me if you had to...and that's not good, Leon. Sometimes when you love somebody the most humane thing you can do is let go. And put them down so that they don't become a monster."

"Thaty's not true. Claire does care. She might not trust you entirely and she may have suspected you as being a traitor over the years but it's because of how aloof you've been. I think she knows by now you're on our side."

"Even so, she would be able to do to me what you wouldn't. And that's imprtant. Chris...he won't be able to do what's nessecary. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I am. And just in case I'm not, it might come down to just me. What if somehow, Wesker were to see them first and kill Chris and Jill and Sheva? Even Claire. It would be up to us to stop him and I know they would have weakened him enough for us to do it."

"Why do you have to be so cold, Ada? And as for Claire, that's not going to happen. I won't let harm come to you or her!"

Ada smiled. "You still have feelings for her, don't you. If you can't be honest with me at least be honest with yourself."

"Yeah...I do...but I'm with you. Her and i it wasn't in the cards. She's got a kid with Steve. But it doesn't matter how I feel it's what I do."

She smiled. "At least you're admitting that. You're finally being honest with me."

He sighed. "I understand what you're trying to say. I even understand what you think we need to do. We have to kill Wesker and you know that we have to do whatever it takes to do it. I'm willing to do that too. But I don't think I could kill you."

"That's not good. But it's good that I'm not the one who's a shell for Wesker. I thank God or the universe or whatever is out there for that."

"Hey you know...three years ago you told me about who you really were...and I was grateful for that. I never thought I'd find out that much of you. Ada is just a psuedonym. You wanted me to be honest about the time I was with Claire, right? And still having leftover feelings from when we were both vunerable and mourning you and Steve? Well now it's time for you to be honest with who you are. You're not Ada Wong. You're not some cold hearted spy. You might try and abandon me one day. And maybe this time around, Claire won't be there to catch me. But at least I know what to expect if you do. Even if we destroy Wesker and all of this won't you find another reason to run?"

"I'm not running, Leon. I'm not hiding. I'm here with you. You don't have any idea what I've sacrificed to not have to kill you on Wesker's orders. So yes, maybe if you were to be infected, I would have to kill you if I couldn't cure you. But if I was really that cold, I could have done it back in Spain. I've had to do things I'm not particularly proud of to keep myself alive and you. It was more dangerous for me than Chris. Chris didn't know Wesker's true intentions when he was a STARS member. I knew Wesker's under him. And I knew he was unpredictable."

"You aren't Ada Wong. Ada Wong was never real. She was just an alias. A woman who used me, used everybody as a means to an end. But the real you? I knew there was two sides to you there always was. That's why you helped me in Raccoon. Not just with the gunshot but tossing me a rocket launcher. You're Hui-Ying. Not Ada."

She paused her eyes flashing with a bit of rage. "Don't call me that," She warned. "Why not? It's who you are. Stop running!You come from revolutionary parents. You're not a runner you're a fighter. Hui-ying..."

She drove her knee into his groin. "I told you...to not call me that."

She went out of the room as he crumpled over. He cursed as he lay there. He got off the floor. She'd better either be setting charges or trying to find Wesker. I'm right behind you. You can't run from me...

He tried the next door intending to follow her. As soon as he made his way through he saw a figure leap out at him and grab him throwing him to the ground. His Assault Rifle discharged as he hit the ground. He looked up to see his muscular adversary. "Krauser!"

"Didn't think last time was the last time you were gonna see me did you, old partner?"

Leon got to his feet with the Rifle raised. "Where's the bitch in red?" Leon stared at him in silence. Krauser chuckled. "Not like I don't know. Just between us guys. I know she's going to try and go after Wesker. That's not a smart idea. Wesker isn't just antiipating her. He's anticipating Ada. Got a little something something to remind her of her mission in Spain. All rhe fun you and her had out there. He told Ada to kill you. And she just couldn't do it. See you may think she's played you and she has. But you've gotten under her skin just as much. I don't doubt that she cares for you."

"What would you know, Krauser? You don't give a damn about anybody but yourself. It's no wonder you're Wesker's slave. And what';s worse is because it's your nature to be a soldier, he's got you convinced you're following him under your own free will."

"I overheard that entire conversation. She's right about Chris, you know. Wesker may be in total control but he still has Piers's memory and he has enough of it that he can access his memory, his feelings. He can pretend to be Piers with total presiscion. It's the perfect weapon. The new stage of warfare. But Ada's going to need this if she plans on stopping Wesker. There's four keys needed to get into the central part of this base. And You and me, we're in the base but we're not where it is in the peak of the mountain."

He reached into his own pack and pulled out the stone. It had the symbol of Om on it. A Hindu symbol. He set it aside. "You kill me, you get the stone. I kill you well.." He chuckled. "That's reward enough on its own."

Leon fired a fifteen round burst at Krauser. The man dodged all of them at his speed. He fired at him as he dodged but he missed. He went to reload but just as he slapped the mag home, Krauser appeared in front of him. "Heads up, comrade!" He kicked him in the side sending him flying back and Leon coughed as he was winded hitting the ground hard. Krauser began to mutate to his form before. His arm, the same arm from back in Spain was there. Leon sneered as he weakly got up. "Why only one arm, Krauser? You getting old?"

Krauser smirked. "You're not twenty one anymore either. I'm as strong as ever. Your body is giving out. It can't take too much wear and tear. You know, despite what Ada said, I will give Chris Redfield credit for one thing. He's got the virus in him. That gives him a much better chance of taking Wesker down than if he tried to do it the way he was before. You're all so proud to be human that you fail to realize humans are obselete from an evolutionary point of view. To take down the man you want to kill sometimes you have to become him."

"Maybe he just doesn't want to end up insane like you and Wesker."

Krauser laughed. "He's still the same old useless excuse for a leader as before. That hasn't changed. Maybe Chris is just afraid the virus will control him unlike me and Albert. We control the virus. But that risk we take, that's the sacrifice for moving to the next stage. I think Chris afraid that if he does have more of teh virus in him, the same amount as Wesker, he'd lose control of himself just like his partner. But Piers was more of a man than he was. He was willing to die to bring down a threat. And he didn't even lose who he was just because he injected the virus. At the end of the day, Leon, it's mind over bodyu. You may think I'm in the wrong here but this is what I wanted. Even if I was weak like you, I would want to be what I am now."

Leon got to his feet readying the shotgun. "It's going to be that much more of a let down when you get killed by a human. Ada will handle Wesker, I'll handle you. And she's too smart to fall for any trap."

"Oh, this trap wouldn't bother a man with Chros's abilities. But Ada won't be able to take it. She's not so strong when she's not able to run away with that fucking grapple gun."

He charged at Leon and he fired a shot. Krauser dodged and came closer but Leon predicted his moves this time around. He faked like he was going to shoot in one area and Krauser moved from there right as Leon thought he would. He fired letting Krauser have it in the right shoulder as well as part of the right side of his face. Leon fired again hitting him in the chest but Krauser threw a hard punch with his right arm. He sent him flying back. Leon hit the ground hard and Krauser kicked him in the ribs cracking his ribs. Leon cried out. Krauser then brought his blade down to try and slash him but Leon rolled away but he was cut on his left arm. Luckily it was just a flesh wound but it hurt like hell.

He grabbed the shotgun rolling over and he fired two shots. The first missed but the second hit Krauser in the left leg and the left knee. Krauser cried out but he knocked Leon's weapon out of his arms and used his bladed shield arm to knock him down. As Leon slowly got up he beamed, "You want to see the little upgrade Wesker gave me? Back in 02' when you and I took down Javier, his daughter understood why. But over the years the loneliness ate at her. She started to resent us. She thought I was dead and she wanted to kill me. But officially, at least, I was. Bur not you. She wanted to come and kill you. She wasn't completely cured of the virus or her father's influence. You know as recently as last year she was going to try and kill you for what we did to her father."

"What we both did!" Leon yelled. "You used to be one of the good guys! We both stopped Javier. We saved her. If she went adrift that's not my fault."

"No, I suppose not. Just colateral, I guess. Well turns out Carlos Oliviera killed her instead last year. We know he's here too."

"Carlos?" Krauser chuckled. "Guess you're not privy to all Intel are ya. Did Ada not tell you? Then again maybe even she didn't know. Well Carlos may have won a battle but he won't win the war. And he didn't know it but Wesker's men out there quietly collected what remained of her body. It took months of research, but in homage to our mission, Wesker gave me her DNA. Steve's DNA. Something to remember her by. My new upgrade."

He touched his own wounds and threw the blood in a circle around Leon. The blood turned to flames and Leon was surrounded by the fire. "Circle of fire, comrade! You think you can handle the heat?" Krauser jumped inside of it. "Fine..." Leon said. "Maybe I'm not escaping here alive but neither are you. And neither is Wesker. If Ada doesn't get him, Chris will."

He just hoped that what Ada said wasn't true. If Wesker did try and pretend to be Piers, he hoped that Chris would see through it.

"That's the spirit," Krauser said with a devilish grin as he got ready to fight Leon to the death. He lunged at him.

Ada

She didn't want to think about her parents and what had happened to them. Or about who she was. She preferred who she was even if she wasn't perfect. Ada Wong could never be hurt. Never be vunerable. There was no angle she couldn't see. She'd been reborn after all. Why did she need to go back? She regretted what she had just done to Leon but it was for the best anyway. She didn't want to have to worry about him getting killed and having to worry if she could do what needed to be done without fear of him dying.

She loved Leon but he could never understand just how much she'd had to do in order to keep Wesker from killing her.

2004

Albert sat in the monitor room and he turned around as Hunk led her inside. She wore the same red dress she had in the mission all though this one seemed new. "Leave us," He ordered Hunk. The man did as he was told. "Your report on the sample?"

"It's here."

She handed it to him.

"Well done. And as for Leon?"

"He's dead..."

His face was blank. "How did you do it?"

"Gunshot to the back of the head."

"And the sample? You obtained it from him before escaping the island?"

"Yes."

"I see...and what of Saddler?"

"Dead. Leon killed him before I..."

He stood up in a flash pushing her against the monitors. He twisted her arm behind her back. She tried kicking hius arm in a back wjheel kick and he briefly let go but as she went do do a cartwheel he grabbed her legs and pushed her into his chair and he grabbed her by the throat. "You are lying to me. You disobeyed my order to kill Leon Kennedy. If left unchecked he could become as much of a fly in the ointment that are our plans as Chris Redfield."

"I'm...not..."

He showed her the silent television screen of what was going on and it showed the presidents daughter reunited with her father. It showed a picture of Leon. "My dear Ada...what ever shall I do with you?" He let her go. "You let your feelings for this man cloud your judgement."

"He saved my life...not only in Raccoon City but Spain too.I wouldn't have been able to get the sample back to you if it wasn't for him."

"I seee...perhaps you are of some use after all. Though I am not sure I can trust you now."

Ada knew it was down to survival. She didn't want to die here. She didn't want Leon dead either but she felt she might not be able to stop him from killing Leon if she was dead. He'd never met him before and Leon would never see it coming if he did. She smiled, "You've caught your mouse."

She kissed him. This took him back a bit but not much. He grabbed her and pulled her from him saying. "Don't delve into things you are not prepared for," He warned her. "You think I can't handle it, Albert? If I wanted to, I could have taken him back in Europe. He was just a means to an end. I didn't make a move on him in the boat. I could have. Even with his mission he would have gone for it."

"And what is your angle?" He demanded. "I want to keep an eye on him. I'm not saying I won't still do whatever you say is nessecary. But Europe wasn't a good time for it. The best time to do it would be in his civilian life."

"No," Wesker told her. "In the event of an outbreak, the death of just one man is nothing remarkable. In a regular city without the distraction of B.O.W.'s to worry about, it could draw more attention."

"You've never hesitated to have somebody killed before, Wesker. Maybe you're the one who's growing fond of him?"

He snarled, "We cannot afford to have the United States government learn what we are up to. If you were with Leon, he could learn what we are up to. He might not be the head of national security but he is still an American citizen with a civic duty. His job is to protect the president. To discover what we are planning could be detrimental."

"Well, he knew I was working for you but he doesn't know why. He asked and I didn't tell him. Besides, it's not like you told me what all you intend to do with this plagas sample,"

"And so it will remain," He snapped. "It will be clear what the end result is in due time. If it's of this much importance to you, then you are welcome to try. But nothing that can lead back to you. And to me."

"Of course not. I wouldn't dream of it. I can always make him think that I'm not really working with you."

"Good. Perhaps you helping him as he helped you in Spain would remove any doubt he has of you from his mind. You are a mystery to him. But this does not nessecarily mean you are under my control."

Ada stood up. "Good. Then we have an understanding."

He grabbed her. "Where do you think you are going? We are not done here."

She looked at him. She didn't want to do this and she knew she could fight him and that she probably should try and jkill him now. She didn't know what he was up to right now but as much as she knew it would be good, this was not an advantageous place to try. He had his men just outside. She had been in tougher binds, of course but she knew Hunk was skilled. If she were to try and kill him, even if she succeeded in doing so,m she would sustain injury from him and it wouldn't be easy for her. And with whatever injury Albert could inflict on her, it was too great a risk. Not to mention the shit show it would cause within the organization were she to escape. It was better to try and kill him another day.

She would have to just see this as part of the mission. She did not fight him. She kissed him again and he roughly grabbed her pulling down the right strap on her dress and he kissed her back aggresivley his teeth biting into her lip. She felt pain as he did this. He pushed her against the monitors. She fumbled with his belt undoing his zippers. He sat down in his chair and she began to lower her mouth onto his removed his sunglasses as she took his large cock into her mouth.

She took his manhood and used the lubrication from her saliva to stroke him as she took his helmet in her mouth and she slid it down his shaft. His eyes glowed as she took him in. He gritted his teeth with lust pushing her head down from the back as she blew tried to not gag. She was able to handle this but it was pushing her limits. Tears formed in her eyes from the gag reflex but not because of what she had to do. No, this would not break her.

Ada was a woman who would get a job done. She was not a whore but she was a spy and sometimes this meant doing things they wouldn't normally. She could handle it. She would handle it. She took her mouth all the way to the base taking as much of the large blonde man in as she could take. He let out a growl od lust sounding more beast than man. He ran his hand through her jet black hair as he had her take more of his erection in her mouth.

She hummed against him as she took him deeper, her noise and vibration coming off like a purr against his manhood. He eased up on the pressure against the back of her head. She gripped his shaft firmly as her tongue explored up to the top of his cock her tongue running along the head. She put half of him in her mouth running it down the shaft sealing her lips and pulling up as her hand did the same leaving a trail of saliva on his engorged manhood. She began to speed up the time bobbing her head as she sucked him off quickening the sucks on his member.

Before long, he came and she knew she would have to swallow the load for it to be satisfactory. His gloved hand held her head as she swallowed his salty load. Gagging at the taste, she pulled his erection from her mouth and began to cough, slowing the pumps with her hand on his cock, she still toyed with his erection as she swallowed the entire load. It was tough going down but she managed. He stood up suddenly, aggresivley, his cock still hard. He bent her over sliding her dress up. He exposed her light colored thighs though light bronze in hue, and he began to enter her. She shifted a bit at the feeling as his large cock went inside of her.

She was wet which was unexpected but she had become slightly aroused at the sight of him. She'd expected a man with his ego to be smaller but he wasn't. Perhaps he had at least one reason to have a God complex. Still, she was in pain as she was aroused but not nearly enough to have it not hurt. However, she was a tough girl and could handle it. A hand on each breast after he slid her dress down from the top and slid it up from the bottom, it was cold on her breasts. Not in the sense of temperature but in a very detached manner as though he was afraid of genuine contact.

His breath was hot on her neck as he drove into her. She started to hurt less feeling more pleasure from it wettening with the thrusts of his cock as he went deeper into her pussy it was of course inevitable but she did not like to admit this. Her nipples hardened as he caressed her breasts. It felt still so detached and yet in an odd way it turned her on. She tried to keep her mind on the task at hand. To not get killed. To keep Leon alive. To not have Wesker send assasins after him. That was a big worry for her because she knew he was capable of i, unlike Chris Redfield, who she knew he wanted to kill personally, he didn't care who would do it.

She backed into him as his cock filled her wet entrance further. She moaned against her own will the sensation emitting a physical response from her beyond what she could control. His cock pounded into her backside as he slid his hands up her bare back driving into her all the more. He was not a generous lover but a rather selfish one and yet, it still felt good. His left hand felt around her belly rubbing it gently the leather rubbing against it. She shivered at this as well as the hand in her right breast caressing her rock hard nipples. He brought his mouth around the side of her lifting her breast to his mouth. His mouth lowered to her nipple biting firmly, not at all gently. It hurt her but she did not cry out in any manner different than she was already from the thrusts of his manhood. She would not give him the satisfaction of her pain as well as her pleasure.

She closed her eyes trying to focus on what felt good rather than what hurt. His tongue along her bossom felt marvelous as it did along her nipple flesh even though his teeth hurt. The pain in her vagina was all but gone as he went to town back there, his large erection filling her up. She tried to pretend it was Leon behind her, not wanting to enjoy this, not wanting to feel it. She wished she could exit her own body until it was over. "Uhhh...!" She cried out as his manhood drove deeper into her soaking tunnels. She tried still to pretend it was the government agent behind her, his lips at her neck his breath against her neck his cock between her thighs but she knew that he would not be such a rough lover.

Maybe when angered and in the wrong mood, perhaps but she knew he was a tender lover as well. Even if she had never been with him. She wished he would be there to hold her in that way that she knew he wanted to. To finally tame her free spirit and for her to let him. It was true that she had wanted to be free still but sometimes she wondered what she was missing out on. A normal life seemed hellish to her. She'd had her freedom for so long, no permanent addresses, no long term relationships and that was the way she liked it. With John she had known he wanted to tie her down and be more to her than he was and this was not a returned feeling. Even so, as hellish as a boring civilian life seemed, she did not think it would be so bad with Leon.

With him it would not only be tolerable but a relief. She was brought out of her thoughts by the guttural noises behind her as his rock hard manhood pounded her cunt. Even as he caressed her breasts, her belly, her thighs, and his mouth occasionally pulled her in for a rough kiss that consisted of more biting than kissing, he would not face her while he fucked her. For Wesker, this was too intimate.

"You like to play rough don't you, Albert..." Her voice whispered in seduction. She didn't want him to get the idea that she was in love with him or anything but she knew her voice tended to have a profound effect on men. It was both a gift and a curse. Often in the past in the throws of hot and sweaty sex, when she'd been near the brink of orgasms herself, her low throaty voice had driven men over the edge. Even just by talking.

However, she did not want to come. Not with him. She wanted him to come and get it over with. In response to her teasing his gloved hand swatted her hard on her ass sending a surge through her. Suddenly his gloved hand began to toy with her folds. "Ohhh!" She cried in surprise as he did this, toying with her labia in addition to the speed of his penetration.

Her juices dampened the length of his hard cock as she rolled her hips back against him. She felt weak at the knees as though she might fall over and her stomach felt heavy and she felt as though she would fall over but his other hand grabbed her there while the other fingered her there. Almost as though he was holding her up. Or holding me down...She thought bleakly. "Ahhh!" She wailed as he stroked her clit. He gripped tight on both hips now, seizing her so as not to let her fall and he began to fuck her faster. His helmet hit her spot and she felt her legs start to buckle. Her juices increased and she felt that she might ejaculate. Her walls started to pulse and quiver, to contract even as she came. "Fuck...Ahhhhh!" She moaned as he drove into her. She rode out the orgasm as he did not even slow down, her black hair soaked with sweat which dripped to her neck and was heated ever more as his hot breath blasted against her neck causing her to heat up more.

His cock was relentless, her sensitive womanhood unable to rest after her clit was sensitive from orgasm and she was dripping at this point her creamy thighs wet. Finally, he increased the speed his teeth gritted his eyes a glaring red and his nostrils flared as he pressed against her. Finally he lost it. Buyt to her surprise, he came inside of her, a reckless choice on his part.

She felt his seed spill into her adding to the dampness of her own vaginal juices she was soon sticky with his semen. Finally he slowed down and settled down. He glared at her in a demanding manner. She got on her knees and began to clean him up trying to choke down the taste once more and he closed his eyes looking up at the ceiling.

2018

She felt a tear go down her cheek thinking about it. Of course, she had gone to the clinic the next day to make sure she wouldn't have that bastards spawn inside of her. She had tried to scrub herself free of his scent in the showers for days after but she never felt rid of him completely and maybe she wasn't meant to , as ugly as it was, she needed that reminder of the sacrifice she had committed to save Leon. Even if he would never understand, it had been so.

She had never considered having children of her own and now it was probably too late. The cost of a lifetime on the run, alone and yet a part of her hoped that it wasn't. If there was anybody she wanted to have children with, it was Leon. If it could be done., If not, they could adopt. The possibilities were endless but she would have to finally do what he said and trust her and just let go. She would have to be Hui-Ying again and cease to be Ada even if after more than twenty years she no longer knew what that meant to her.

She heard a noise and went to investigate. She heard gunfire and the battle cries of two men and realized what was happening. Leon...I'm coming! She thought as her heart pounded readying her weapons.

That's it for this chapter everybody. So yes instead of Rebecca dying it was Billy. All though I can't tell you what happened let's just say that was very Romeo & Juliett. Not sure if I spelled that right and I am sure I don't care if I didn't.

So Carlos has returned! But just to return the stone., Will he survive? Will the others?

As far as the thing with Ada and Wesker let's just say that all though I am normally about Leon and Ada and Leon and Claire Ada and Wesker is the only other pairing I can see and kind of like this lemon in a flashback dictates, it's still the cat and mouse relationship. Despite in the instance of if Ada was with Wesker for real and not as a means to an end they would be the evil pairing but lets just say i could still see it. And i imagine the sex would be exactly like i described. I still maintain that i believe Ada looked her best in 4 and worst in 6.

As for Chris and co., they don't know Wesker's exact plans on what he intends to do with these nukes but you can wager it's not good.

As faras Blly's death you know most of the characters to some degree have an antagonist but Billy has not been in more than one game and the thing is if tey ever did bring him back I would hope his enemy would be the sob commander that sentenced him to death. Come on Revelations 3!

As far as Resident Evil 7 goes i hope I don't hate it i mean i get that they are trying to show how an average joe would do and i like the melee weapon emphasis but if it's going to be more about hiding and exploring than fighting enemies and if the only enemies are the Baker family that's stupid. It's like Capcom keeps trying to return to its roots only to go further from them.

As far as Leon vs Krauser do you think Krauser will be able to handle both of them? He couldn't handle one of them individually on his own in Spain they both kicked his ass but he does have a trick or two up his sleeve. I had watched this video series saying who would win between Claire and Jill Jilol and Ada and Jill in her brainwashed stae vs Krauser it said Jill beats Claire loses to Ada and loses to Krauser I didnt want the full Ada vs Jill but i did see why Jill would beat Claire she's better trained plus Claire might hesitate to deliver the killing blow and then against Krauser all though Jill is tough, she's head on and predictable Krauser is a guerrilla warfare tactician and Leon only defeated him cause he trained with him and knew his tactics.

As far as Ada doing what she did a lot of people may judge her for that but there have been instances in history of women doing this temporarily going with the more dangerous man to buy some time and we see this with the new season of walking dead as far as Dwight vs Negan.

Anyway that's all. This bitch is almost done. Hopefully other stories won't take as long to complete but then, once you've finished your first story well that's something else so maybe this changes things. Also did you catch what Chris was saying he implied that they had another child. I wanted to show the lemon in which that child is created and I almost posted that on this chapter too but the chapter is long enough already so next chapter it'll have to be.

Till next time.
