The girl kept her pistol on Chris for a moment more before her narrowed gaze softened and her mouth dropped. Chris gulped, his hands up innocently, looking back and forth from the girl to his teammate, Richard, on the ground."Oh my god... Chris!" The girl exclaimed and dropped her pistol, rushing to him with tears in her eyes. She threw her arms around Chris, causing him to stumble back as she squeezed him tightly.
Chris' face twisted up in confusion as he looked down at the girl hugging him. He wasn't sure he knew her name, but he definitely recognized her. It was only when she pulled away that he knew for sure she was S.T.A.R.S..
The girl wiped the tears from her eyes and grabbed Chris' hand, dragging him roughly over to Richard. She knelt beside Richard and cupped his cheek with her hand. Richard groaned and his face contorted as he held his side.
"It's okay, Richard. Look, Chris is here." The girl murmured and gave Richard a sad smile. Richard looked weakly to Chris, Chris still in shock as he looked over at Richard.
His shirt was torn and his side was bloody. His right hand was stained with his own blood as he tried to keep himself from bleeding out.
"Chris..." Richard murmured weakly.
"Richard... God, what happened?" Chris whispered, looking from Richard and back to the girl next to him.
"He was... poisoned. A snake came out of nowhere and attacked us. I've been trying to help him, but nothing I have is working and... I don't want to leave him to go get the serum with all those monsters out there." The girl huffed, grabbing Richard's left hand and squeezing it tightly.
"Well, where is it? Tell me and I'll go get it." Chris shifted to look at the girl. She looked up at him, her hazel eyes now filling with hope. Oh
She brushed a hand through her short hair and stammered nervously, looking away from Chris. "It-It should be in a medical station on the other side of the mansion. On the bottom floor next to a staircase, I think." She said quickly.
Chris nodded and wasted no time getting to his feet and jogging to the door.
"Chris!" The girl called out, and Chris spun around to look at her with a stunned expression.
She stood up and gave Chris a nod. "Be careful."
Chris paused before nodding and dashing out the door.
***
Chris burst into the room next to the base of the stairs, darting to the rows and rows of medicine bottles.
