I strode in to the room, my eyes fixed on Wesker. Clicking my tongue in disgust, I dropped the Tyrants head and kicked it towards his feet.
"Consider this a gift from my teacher, she loathed the T-002 model Tyrants with a burning passion. Even Surgei's bodyguards felt the blunt force of her hatred more than once." I spat the line I had been throwing about my head for a while. It is quite hard to talk about ones self in a third person perspective.
"So you were an Umbrella operative I take it then. Sadly, I know longer have a care for them." He spoke throwing my back pack at me, "Prepare to suffer, if you manage to give me a good fight I might let you live."
I caught the bag and pulled out a metal bracelet with a dragon head on it and put on my wrist. The next piece would make my plan come to fruition. I pulled out a blue and black Umbrella pendant with a projector and a blood scanner built in. Once it was touched by my blood the message will play, a truly cruel joke upon my self to act as the dead...
FLASHBACK [russia 2002]
Warning death ahead!
I held her bleeding body, tears streamed down my face. Out in the frigid temperatures of the Russia wastelands, I held my dying student. I shivered in the snow putting pressure on the bullet wound in the center of her chest.
"GOD DAMN IT ALISTAR! I DIDN'T TELL YOU TO DO THIS." I screamed, as her grey eyes opened in sorrow.
A soft chuckle escaped her blood stained lips, "At least I put your plan to start. I heard that recording... I wouldn't allow that to pass. You deserve to be free of Vladimir's control, to be able to go save the man you love from Spencers plans." She coughed very hard blood shot up from the wound and her mouth.
"The hell do you mean! Alistar, my Albert was lost a long time ago. I told you that." I spoke pulling a tampon out of my side arm holster, quickly unwrapping it trying to use it to stop the bleeding. She pushed my hand away laughing softly.
"Tabitha no T-T, look at the path ahead of you, it is one I could never keep up with... My body is comparable to Arch Angel...not a match. They were going to send me out to die next mission. At least here I die by my... c-choice not theirs. They may be the ones who took my life but at least in the end I showed them that I'm not a p-puppet. You will get through to him with that plan you thought of. You just needed the push to take the first step, I'm giving it to y-you-u. Use me as your queen in your game, s-shadow-s g-g-guide y-y-yo-u-u..."
At that she took her last breath. In her hand were three data sticks that were marked. One said W.C.P. The next one said Angelis. The last one had an Umbrella emblem, Surgei's personal back up files.
I shook my head. She was right, I couldnt keep letting them get in my way i had to steep deeper in to the shadows. I made up my mind then and there, to destroy them I must die and she shall live. I grabbed my knife and slit down under my left eye. The wound healed near instantaneously but it was deep enough to leave a scare that matched hers.
"Rest in peace Alistar Lancaster or should I say, my long lost daughter." Tears mixed in blood slid down my face as I walked away, knowing soon enough she'd be covered in snow. Her favorite thing.
END OF FLASHBACK
I gripped the necklace and put it over my neck. I cracked my neck by swiftly rolling it. I knew not to win this fight. My victory would be get blood drawn and smear it on the pendant. The rest will fall in to place.
"A good fight you say, my teacher was the best hand to hand fighter Umbrella had." I grabbed my knife sheath and equipped it to my belt storing my blade in its proper home.
"We shall see about that..." He said with a dismissive tone.
At this point tension was so thick it could be cut with a butter knife and spread on toast. I stalked over my grey contacts hiding the ice cold blue that raged beneath. If I were to be completely honest with my self, this isn't what I wouldnt of wanted, I'd rather run to his arms showing I was alive. Then mine and Alistars plans would be destroyed. It was time to test the water.
"Che I'm not scared of a little black cockroach." I just chummed the water and there is a massive shark now about to go into a frenzy.
He charged foreward, lunging at my chest. I dropped to the floor and slammed my heel into his ankle. With a growl he grabbed his ankle. I saw his speed first hand when I was running from him. Even my own abilities of speed were no where that level. I knew to at least survive the next three minutes, I'd needed to slow him down.
"Not bad, but you've trapped your self." He picked me up amd chucked me easily in the the other side of the room.
I twisted in the air regaining a hold of my surroundings and slammed my feet on the ground. With a minor motion, my blade left its sheath. After all, I was never one for playing fair, I had something to take it over the edge as well. Vladimir said I had a knack for "mental" warfare.
"Is that all you got!" I shouted knowing what I was about to say was going to either end in one of two ways: him not caring or unlocking a fury only matched by my hatred of Umbrella, "IF THAT IS ALL YOU CAN DO NO WONDER YOU COULDN'T SAVE HER FROM VLADIMIR! IT'S YOUR FAULT SHE SUFFERED. IT'S YOUR FAULT TABITHA ,MY TEACHER, IS DEAD!"
I nearly gagged at the vicious lie I had just spoke. The air in the room suddenly got cold. Wesker was standing completely still facing away from me. He slowly twisted his head his eyes radiating a deep red, they were glowing with burning malice. He ripped off his shades and stomped on them.
That expression I knew it all to well he was pissed the FUCK OFF. It did exactly what I thought it would and more than likely he wanted to kill me.
"You dare tell me about my wife. If I could of I'd of ripped her from Surgei!" He growled darkly.
"But you didn't and insteaded of being ripped from him...she was raped by him on a nightly basis." I spoke recounting my torturous five years under his control.
He let out a dark scream filled with pure rage and malcontent. I just probably pissed him of to the point were if it was back when we where living together I'd be sleeping on the outside sofa. It was time for my plan to go in to action.
"Che seems I touched a nerve, pathetic!" I spat quickly side stepping avoiding a charging Wesker.
"We will see who is pathetic once I plunge my hand through your chest." He screamed out.
In a mere second notice he had gone from four meters away to directly infront of my shocked figure. His left hand pulled back ready to strike my chest just as he said."Predictable!" I said as i swatted his hand with a fraction my speed.
"Predictable?",he chuckled. With lightning fast speed his right hand struck my diaphragm.
I was in agony, my throat flooded with blood forcing me to cough. Scarlet splattered on the floor as blood dripped down my mouth and neck, completely covering the pendant in blood."Did you predict that.",he chuckled.
As I was gasping for air on my hands I felt a kick to the side of my head deafing my left ear. When I tried to get up Wesker delivered a ferocious right to my chest. The force of his kick sent me flying to the cement wall, the necklace falling on in front of him. He won the battle but the match was mine.
"Blood scan complete, one recorded message, from Tabitha Redfield Wesker." A robotic female voice spoke from the pendant.
"Alistar what have you gotten yourself into now?" My voice rang out from the pendant.
At that I chuckled, for the greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world she did not exist. At the sound of my voice I drifted into a dreary black. My pain giving away to the tendrils of unconsciousness.
Hey everyone,
I just wanted to thank my friend Troy who helped me with the last part of this chapter. This was a dark chapter but it was only scratching the surface of how dark this work will get. Warnings has been given. The prologue is now officially over. Next chapter is in the works.
My name is Slifarianhawk and I'm not so far away.
