"Where are you going?" Helena asked, chasing after Wesker who just ignored her. Frustrated she moved into step behind the much taller man and after spending the next few seconds in complete silence she cleared her throat. "You do realize this mansion's about to blow sky high?"
"Of course I do now be quiet so I can think." Wesker muttered and she snorted, not liking his attitude but she chose to follow him anyway.
I hope he knows the way out of here because I certainly don't. Just hope there's no more of those monsters wandering about.
"If you want to survive you better follow me." Wesker's voice snapped Helena out of her daze and she shook her head to find the Umbrella agent staring at her. "Unless you want to die here?" He added with a smirk and Helena snorted, quickly following when he moved faster.
As she hurried to keep up Helena wondered just how he knew what direction to take despite having never seen him working in the mansion. It wasn't until she heard the continued voice echoing through the mansion that warned them that they had two minutes to evacuate that she started to panic, praying that Wesker would find a way out. He did ignoring the recorded voice as he pulled open doors and stepped through them, barely even glancing at Helena who raced to follow.
Eventually one of the many doors led us outside and Helena stared at the helicopter sitting abandoned a few feet from us. Not even braking his stride Wesker headed towards it and Helena started to run, having heard the recording announce they had less than a minute before the self destruct sequence levelled the mansion and them in it. "Are you coming or what, doctor?" Wesker called out, already standing with the door opened. Still a little shaken up she still made the short distance to the helicopter and just as she closed the door, Wesker sat in the pilot's seat.
He didn't even wait until she was seated before he started the engine and Helena quickly sat down, strapping herself in as the helicopter lifted off the ground. They were barely in the air before a loud explosion rocked the ground below them and Helena looked out her window to see the mansion implode, the whole building bursting into a massive cloud of dust and debris.
It took her several seconds to notice Wesker talking to her and she turned to see him staring at her his sunglasses making it hard to read his expression though judging from the smirk on his lips he was silently laughing at her. "Sorry but what did you say?" Helena asked and he sighed, turning back to the window in front of him.
"I asked where to drop you off." Wesker sighed and Helena sighed in response, gazing out of her side of the window. Getting silence instead of an answer made Wesker annoyed but he chose to return his attention to escaping what used to be, until a few minutes ago, the Spencer Mansion.
It would be several hours before anyone spoke and in the silence Helena found herself wondering just what she would do now that her employer was well and truely dead.
I guess having your employer become a flesh eating monster basically means you're fired.
She would have laughed had the shock of seeing so many workers losing their minds, changing into monsters left her exhausted and burnt out.
I have to keep telling myself there was nothing I could do. That virus it transforms you into something less than human and once you're infected...
She shook off that thought with a shudder, returning to staring out the window.
"Just when I thought I was set for life working for Umbrella this happens." Helena muttered not realizing Wesker had changed the helicopter to auto-pilot.
"Why were you in the Spencer Mansion?" Wesker asked and she turned her head to find him staring at her. "What business did you have there?"
"I told you before I'm a doctor and..." Helena yelped as he reached over, gripping her chin before he yanked her face inches from his. "I'm telling you the truth!" She protested but Wesker squeezed her chin and she gasped from the pain.
"I can tell you're not a doctor. If you were you would be one of those zombies." Wesker answered not relaxing his grip before he reached up to remove his sunglasses. Grimacing, Helena tried in vain to shift her gaze but he wouldn't let her and she stared into his red and gold cat-like eyes.
"Alright, just...relax your grip." She gasped and he did still not releasing her. "I'm not a doctor but I do work for Umbrella. They hired me after I hacked into their database to find out why people had gone missing in the Arklay Mountains. When they showed up at my doorstep in Raccoon City they gave me two choices; work for them or disappear. So I chose the former obviously. I was working in the Spencer Mansion with Doctor Ellen Smith when the shit hit the fan." Helena told him and Wesker removed his grip on her chin, sitting back as she swallowed.
"That I understand but it doesn't explain how you're not infected. Everyone else in that mansion ended up as a mindless zombie." Wesker muttered, replacing his sunglasses and Helena sighed leaning back in her own seat.
"Before we entered the mansion everyone had an injection to prevent any of us getting sick since the mansion had been abandoned for years. I thought it was just a precaution but after what happened in the last few days. Why I didn't get sick worries me." Helena answered and Wesker stroked his chin for a moment before he returned to piloting the helicopter. "Do you know why?" She asked though when she didn't get a response she sighed.
"It's probably because you have the Anti-virus in your blood. That's what they injected you with before you entered the mansion, in the highly likely event of a outbreak." Wesker told her, eyes on the window in front.
"Why me?" She asked and he snorted, not even sparing her a glance. "Hey I helped you." She protested and he sighed, giving her a quick glance.
"You received one of many vials of the Anti-virus and you just happened to have been vaccinated with the right one. Be grateful that you're still alive." Wesker replied.
