It was Leon, who'd spotted Carla heading into a warehouse. Holding up a hand he stopped the pair behind him, watching as Carla slipped inside.

"Is that her?" Helena asked.

"Let's go find out," he told the pair as he headed off after the woman.

Once inside they now found no sign of her, until she casually walked by the machines in their way. Leon was given a split second to turn around to see her, before she disappeared again to end up at the next door.

"Carla!" Leon called her out.

This caught the woman off guard, her face setting in a scowl at once.

"I just need to..." before he could finish, bullets tore all way up the metal door Carla had opened.

"Give it up, Ada!" someone shouted from below.

"Who is that?" Helena asked now frowning as Carla ducked to then grapple her way to safety.

"Damn," Leon huffed. "Whoever it was just blew our chances of finding anything out."

"Come on, we should go after her." Jill was saying as she was already heading for the stairs.

The three quickly opened a door to a strange room filled with tanks, what was inside them they weren't keen on finding out.

"We need to get to that elevator. Run!" Leon now shouted at spotting it down the hall.

"Someone else is here," Piers was now heard in the opposite side to them. "Hostiles?"

"Maybe a few of her pets. Ignore them. She's the target," Chris reminded him as they too ran down their end in hopes of reaching the lift first.

As soon as they made it halfway, Carla made herself known from the walkway above them.

"Glad you could stop in. Like what I've done with the place?" she teased just as a laser wall headed right for them. "Hope you like your stay!"

"Lasers!" Helena scowled as Jill was just now securing her gun on her back to then run in.

She made the laser wall look easy as she easily jumped right through them. Leon was then next to give the wall a try, he too made it look easy.

"Come on, Helena!" Leon called to her as the lasers were fast approaching her now.

"How the hell do I..."

"Back up, run and slide under. There's plenty of room," Jill now gave her the easiest way of doing it.

"Captain!" Piers yelled as Chris had thrown himself through the wall as well, catching his gun a little in the process as the part dropped to the floor.

"This crazy bitch isn't messing around," he now looked up at her with a sharp scowl.

"Hurry up, Piers. We don't have all day!" Chris scolded him now.

Piers took a breath then followed through, just managing to make it through as well. Though unfortunately it was far too late for them. Carla had now moved on just as they'd managed to slip past another of her traps.

"Go, I'll hold them off." Jill gestured for Leon and Helena to get in the lift just as Chris was charging his way towards them.

"Jill!" Chris thought surprised. "Where's Claire?"

"We got separated, but she's..."

"Captain, the elevator!" Piers now pointed as Leon and Helena took the lift up.

"Talk later, right now we've got that woman to catch."

"Chris, listen to me." Jill tried to reason with him to no avail.

Once the pair were now on the next floor, they found themselves entering another room.

"What is this?" Helena asked looking around at the tanks with cocoons in them once again.

"Don't know. And I don't like the look of it," Leon frowned as they all made it over to the opposite end.

Helena was over at the doors, banging her fists upon them before ramming herself into them.

"Locked!" she groaned.

Soon an automated voice was then heard.

"Engaging locks. Testing for prototypes."

"Now what?" Helena frowned just as Carla walked right into the room ahead of them, stopping at the control panel to type something into the computer.

"Carla!" Leon now shouted through the glass at her.

"We've been conducting such fascinating work here," she ignored him as small robots were now set free. "Why don't you have some fun with the one of the new prototypes?"

"You're not doing yourself any favours by doing this!" Leon glared at her.

"If it gets you all off my back, then so be it." Carla smirked, knowing she was going to enjoy watching this.

"What is she..." Helena frowned as one of the robots bumped into her boot, light turning from blue to red. "No way!"

Quickly jumping aside she found them to be explosives.

"They're rigged with explosive charges, watch out!"

Leon kicked one aside for it to slip back under to the other side just as the doors opened. It exploded before Jill, Chris and Piers took even one step inside.

"What the hell was that?" Piers asked dumbfounded.

"Be careful," Jill warned as she stepped in after Chris, who ran to the doors opposite to try to open them. "Damn this, bitch!"

"Chris, the panel." Jill pointed out to him. "Maybe we can open it from here."

Chris walked over to the panel to start working on getting the doors open.

"Cover me," he told the pair.

"On it!" Jill nodded, shooting a couple of robots before they could reach them.

"Carla, we don't have time for your games!" Leon banged on the glass. "Enough is enough!"

"Leon, the controls!" Helena quickly grabbed his attention.

Leon turned around to go check the door controls, finding he wouldn't be able to do it alone.

"Hunnigan come in, we've got a small problem." He called her up. "Think you can help with these door controls?"

"Child's play, Leon." She reminded him.

It wasn't long before the automated voice now started confirming the unlocks as both sides went at it.

"Security breach detected in Room One. Security breach detected in Room Zero."

On and on it went as they managed to bypass the security. Carla decided now was a good a time as any to send out a few more robots as they were breaching through like it was nothing.

"Carla, enough!" Leon snapped as he almost got caught by one.

"Disengaging locks in Room One," the voice was heard again. "Disengaging locks in Room Zero."

Carla now turned with a smug smile on her face as she stepped from the room to drop down onto the walkway below. Once the doors were open, Leon and Helena took the low ground, while Jill, Chris and Piers took the high ground. It was now a race to see who would get to her first.

"Carla, stop we need to talk!" Leon called out to her, chasing her as fast as he could.

"Sorry, not in a talking mood." Carla replied as she ran well ahead of him.

"You've got some explaining to do!"

"Enough running!" Helena called out to her from way behind.

"Ooh, you certainly are a take-charge kind of girl." Carla teased back.

"Don't lose her!" Chris growled from above.

"I won't!" Piers responded as he ran as quick as he could as well. "Give it up, Ada. We've got you!"

"Never send a boy to do a soldiers job," she jabbed back at him before throwing a smoke bomb to then grapple her way to safety once again.

Quickly heading into an office area, she quickly grabbed a case and another grenade to quickly head back out onto the walkway, only this time she was stopped dead in her tracks. Piers shot the ground near her feet, forcing her back into the corner.

"Nowhere to run, Ada!" Chris glared as he looked at her with his gun raised and ready.

Carla just gave him a smug look in return as he pulled the trigger.

"Chris, no!" Jill screamed at him, only Leon had thankfully pushed the gun away from the smug looking woman in time.

Bullets now tore through the wall to the side of her as Leon tried his best to stop Chris. Pulling the gun from the older man's hand in their scuffle, Leon threw it over the side. Chris tried to hit him in return, which resulted in Leon dodging to then grab the older man in an headlock. Chris being that little bit stronger, pulled him off with ease. The two continued to fight until both pulled a pistol on each other.

"Chris!"

"Leon!"

"You're protecting this woman!" Chris now scowled deeply at the man in front of him.

"I am," Leon simply responded.

"You know what that bitch did!" Chris snapped.

Leon gave a slight nod.

"She's working for Neo Umbrella!"

"I know," Leon sighed. "That's why we need her alive, she's a valuable witness."

"Witness!?" Chris snapped. "She's the one responsible for the virus. She infected my partner!"

Leon looked to Jill now, who was heading over to Chris in hopes of talking him out of killing the woman.

"Let them deal with this," she told him.

"Not after what she's done," he scowled, willing to shoot Leon too if it meant he'd put Carla down once and for all.

"Captain!" Piers now yelled as Carla somersaulted right over him to then kick him back into the approaching pair.

"Sorry, boys, gotta run." She smirked as she now grappled her way to the floor, while throwing the flash grenade to give her more time before quickly heading out.

It would seem she hadn't been able to lose them after all, but no matter they'd now get to witness Simmons' true form.

"Damn it!" Piers scowled at letting himself get caught off guard like that.

"Get outta my way, Leon!" Chris yelled in his face.

"Chris, you need to stop this now!" Jill now scolded him.

"I'll find that woman and I'll..." he vowed.

"I lost seventy thousand people and the President all thanks to Simmons!" Leon now snapped back at him. "Yeah, I know you both had it pretty hard. But I have too! Carla is a pawn in all this. We need her alive!"

"The President's dead?" Jill turned to look at him in realisation.

"I shot him," Leon sighed as he lowered his head and turned away.

"He was infected," Helena quickly got in. "Simmons made..."

"Helena," Leon stopped her with a shake of his head.

"Chris," Jill now looked to him calmly once again.

"Alright," he now sighed heavily. "We'll go after Ada..."

"Carla," Leon corrected him.

"I don't care what her fucking name is," Chris scowled, seriously wanting to make her pay for her stupid games. "We'll go after Carla..."

Leon nodded.

"...and bring that bitch in for questioning. You deal with Simmons."

"I knew I could count on you," Leon pat him on the shoulder, but Chris shrugged him off.

"It would have been better to just put her down," Chris glared at him.

"I know, but Simmons is our real enemy here." Leon reminded him.

Chris just gave him a hard look before turning to look at Piers.

"Why are you still standing there, soldier?" he frowned. "We've got a woman to find!"

"Yes, Captain!" Piers nodded.

Jill was now getting ready to follow them on before turning towards Leon.

"I'll not let anything happen," she reassured him. "I won't see Chris lose himself to something like this."

"Thank you," Leon nodded. "If anyone can do it, it'll be you."

She gave a nod then followed the pair on.

"I hope she can get it through that thick skull of his," Helena frowned as Leon stepped passed her.

"Come on, we're putting a stop to Simmons once and for all."

Getting side tracked was not something that happened very often with Ada. It had to be rather serious for her to part ways from her current mission, and right now this just so happened to be something intriguing. Getting down on one knee, she aimed her newly acquired sniper rifle down over the docks until skimming over a young blonde as she jumped onto a large raft. She turned the dial on the scope so that it zoomed in on the young woman's face before moving onto the young man with her and also:

"Claire," she now frowned.

She didn't hate the woman in the least, she just hated how she'd managed to make her talk openly with her over the few months they'd been together. She couldn't say she'd enjoyed spending time with her, but she definitely couldn't say she hadn't not liked it. It was good to have some company for a change.

At the familiar sound of a chainsaw, Ada lowered her aim to now see the chainsaw B.O.W. she thought she'd seen the very last off. She sighed as she wrapped her finger around the trigger once the things head came into contact with the cross hairs.

"Poor little Sherry, how the monsters love to chase you."

Now pulling the trigger, half of the things head exploded in a spray of blood and possibly bits of brain if it still had any.

"Did you do that?" Jake asked shocked as he looked to Sherry.

"No," she told him.

"You?" he asked turning to Claire.

"Not me," she replied with a shake of her head before looking round.

Whoever it was they were either long gone or just hiding.

"Alright, let's get this thing started up." Claire now said as she walked over to take the wheel as Jake got the motor running.

Claire started spinning the wheel to steer them away from the dock just as the chainsaw B.O.W. now stood once again.

"You just won't stay dead, will you?" Ada sighed as she followed the trio down the river.

"Look out!" Sherry pointed as the B.O.W. jumped onto their raft.

"Why won't this thing just die?" Jake scowled as he ducked the things chainsaw.

Sherry unloaded her pistol into it, while Claire had the difficult job of steering them around things she couldn't see as the pair fought on.

"End of the line," she warned as the way ahead was blocked.

They'd have to use the walkway with the large neon sign to hopefully get a head start on the chainsaw B.O.W. as thankfully there was another raft waiting on the other side. However, it wouldn't be easy as more of those J'avo now sprang out at them. Jake was a little surprised to look up and see flying creatures heading their way.

"Above us!" he pointed.

All they needed now was a giant alligator or crocodile to jump out of the water, just like the one found in the sewers when Claire was looking for Sherry. Chris had also told her there were large crocodiles he had to dodge while on a small raft, as well as also watching out for them as he and Sheva crossed a flooded swamp. So yeah, the pair had both had their share of facing off against large reptiles.

oOo

Ada was now jumping on a stack of metal beams held in the air by a crane. She made it to the edge to now look down on the three, who were making short work of the flying creatures. The other J'avo on the walkway were quite a challenge as they also had to watch out for the chainsaw B.O.W.

"Let's even the odds a little, shall we?" she smiled as she got down on one knee to aim the sniper rifle over the J'avo on the walkway.

oOo

A gun shot rang out behind Sherry, followed shortly after by another and then another. Sherry was now dodging mutated J'avo and bullets from afar now.

"Someone's shooting at us!" she warned them.

"Not shooting at us!" Jake shouted back over all the noise. "Helping us!"

Claire just barely managed to duck under the chainsaw as it was now brought down on one of the J'avo. Once again she couldn't boast to Chris about it as he'd been against infected Majini wielding chainsaws before her, and it wasn't like Chris could boast either as Leon had dealt with chainsaw wielding maniacs before the pair.

"Possibly her brother!" Jake scowled.

"If it was Chris, he'd be here personally." Claire told him as she kicked a badly mutated J'avo away from her before shooting him in the head.

"Then we've got ourselves a guardian angel, how nice." He thought sarcastically.

oOo

"Guardian angel, bodyguard, someone's personal desire." Ada thought smugly as she now lined up her next shot. "What next will I be?"

Upon pulling the trigger and having another part of its head blown off, the chainsaw B.O.W. was now sent sprawling back into the neon sign once again, taking itself and the sign into the water.

"Hopefully that's the last of you," she thought as she now planned on heading on.

oOo

"Wasn't that helpful of whoever it was," Jake now looked around with his hands on his hips. "Whoever you are we owe you!"

"Come on, Jake!" Sherry grabbed his arm to the then pull him over to the sign to climb down to get to the next raft.

He quickly started up the motor as Sherry took the wheel just as Claire now dropped down with them.

"I sure hope that things dead," Claire sighed.

"It's been fucking chaos out here!" Jake scowled.

Sherry quickly turned the wheel to avoid a collision, but felt something hit the back of the raft.

"What was that?" Claire asked as she stepped over to see.

"There's something in the water," Sherry now pointed.

"Where?" Jake asked, turning to see where she was pointing.

"There," she told him.

"You seeing things?" he asked.

"No, there's a light. Look there!"

Claire walked over to have a look as well.

"You see anything?" he asked.

Claire shook her head.

"Look I know what I saw alright," Sherry huffed. "Doesn't matter anyway, we can get off here."

She pulled the raft over to the docks. Claire jumped off first, followed by Jake, who now turned back to give her a hand.

"Worst boat ride than the Titanic," he frowned.

"Didn't know you were old enough for that," Claire jabbed at him.

"Ha ha, real funny." He scowled at her just as something jumped from the water to break the pair apart.

"Sherry!" Claire yelled as the chainsaw B.O.W. was back once again.

"Hang on, Sherry!" Jake shouted, now worried as she was backing up to the end of the raft which was now heading right for a downed helicopter, which still had the blades rotating.

"Sherry, watch out!" Claire screamed as she was now dangerously close to getting sliced up.

No matter how much she could heal there was just no way of coming back from that. Even as the pair unloaded their guns into the thing, it still pushed Sherry further and further back until...

oOo

Ada had now made it back to the rooftops having seen the glow beneath the water, thus deciding to stay around to watch for anything happening like right about now.

"I'm surprised at you, Claire." She frowned. "You of all people can't even protect little old Sherry. Well, I suppose it's my turn again."

Throwing down the sniper rifle as she knew she wouldn't need it anymore, she pulled the grapple launcher from the holster on her leg, aimed it at one of the cranes and threw herself off the side of the building. She swung around, her free arm held out to wrap around Sherry's waist as soon as she was in range. Sherry gave a startled cry as she was suddenly lifted off her feet by a mysterious woman, one of whom she couldn't really make out at the moment as she was more worried about where she was going. The B.O.W. had now met its final demise as it was now sliced and diced in the rotating helicopter blades. There was no way it was getting back up from that.

"You seem to be lacking a little since Raccoon City, Claire." Ada scolded her as she dropped the young woman into Jake's awaiting arms. "Then again you're not exactly the bright young woman you used to be."

"Look who's talking!" Claire gave back as much as she received as the woman now landed on the edge of the building to look down on her.

She really had no idea the severity of the conditions Leon had left Ada in back at the underground labs in Raccoon City. She was far more preoccupied with finding Chris than asking Leon about what had happened to make him look as glum as he did.

"At least I have the ability to..."

"Get on people's nerves!" Claire finished for her.

It would seem to others the pair couldn't stand one another with how they acted, however that wasn't the case as Jake now looked on as he set Sherry back on her feet.

At that Ada gave a smile. "You just can't stay out of trouble, can you?"

"No, mother!" Claire frowned at her, placing her hands on her hips.

"Where would you be without me?" Ada now asked.

"I survived Raccoon City without you," Claire now waved a finger up at her. "I even survived two Island's."

"You had help," Ada reminded her with a smirk.

"Don't you have anything better to be doing?" Claire now frowned. "Like giving something back?"

"You know her?" Jake asked as he came to stand next to Claire.

Claire gave a nod. "I was stuck with the grumpy ass for the past six months!" she shouted, sending the remark back to Ada as she answered his question as well.

"No need to thank me!" Ada feigned annoyance.

"Thank..." Sherry now rushed over to thank her as the pair had finally stopped their bickering. However, the ringing of her phone cut her off.

"You're welcome, sweetie." Ada replied to herself.

"Yes, we thank you. I thank you." Claire frowned at her. "We're all in your debt, oh great Queen of Mystery!"

Ada gave her a royal wave in response before disappearing from sight.

"Yes. We just had a run in with a chainsaw B.O.W." Sherry was now heard as she spoke to someone over the phone. "Yes, we're fine. We're on our way now. Yes, I understand. No, we'll be alright."

"Wait, the past six months?" Jake asked, grabbing Claire by the arm.

"Yeah, why?" Claire questioned.

"Me and Sherry were taken captive by that woman for six months, and here she is saving her. Now you go saying you were with her for the past six months, what has she got an evil twin or something?"

"She held you captive?" Claire now turned on him.

"Yeah," Jake nodded. "She needed my blood, she also did some tests on Sherry too."

"That wasn't her," Claire now frowned deeply. "There's an impostor that looks like her."

"Impostor, not evil twin?" he thought.

"I don't know much about it myself, but if I get my hands on her I'd strangle her to death for ever hurting Sherry."

"You and me both," he smirked, getting a smile from Claire in return.

Seems he wasn't at all like his father.

"I'll be there as soon as I can. Yes, he's alright."

With that she cut the call and just stood there unable to move as she wondered if it all was true about Simmons.

"Sherry?" Claire now looked to her.

"It's about Simmons, isn't it?" Jake now asked as he now walked over to her.

Sherry gave a nod.

"Everything's going to alright," he reassured her with a smile. "OK?"

Everything was not going to be alright though as Claire knew deep down there was something about Simmons, Sherry had to find out for herself.

"Claire," Sherry now turned to her.

"We should let Simmons tell us himself, alright?"

She gave a nod. "Let's go, he's waiting on us."

Claire turned to look at Jake, the poor kid was clearly new to all this.
