For the past 5 months things have been fine. I'm doing my job saving as many people as I can get virus hand over to the government then I go home to Leon. As I'm getting more and more pregnant it does get hard to do my job. I'm throwing up I get headaches sometimes braxton hicks I think its called the normal pregnancy symptoms I read online. I have to slow down soon though I can't be nine months pregnant going from country to country. I just want to keep doing what I'm doing until I can't anymore. I want to start focusing on my daughter. I have to read books on parenting I have no Idea what I'm doing. I love my dad but I want to raise my daughter better thats the goal.
Erin's walking down the stairs wearing white furry sweater with back jeans on with combat boots with her stomach showing then sees Leon in a black turtleneck sweater with jeans and hiker boots putting breakfast down on the table "need help"
Erin shakes her head "no I'm ok" Erin sits down across from him
"she's getting so big" Leon smiles
"22 weeks as of today" Erin smiles
"I'm going to get some work done on the baby's room pick up some paint samples any ideas" Leon asks
"what about wall papers get those too"
"got it"
"and buy me pizza please" Erin gives him puppy eyes and lips
"of course" Leon says as they hear hard bangs on the door
"be right back eat up" Leon walks to the door
Erin puts butter on her toast and starts to eat "can I at least have five minutes" Leon asks at the door
Erin looks over to see Leon talking to people with dso badges then sees Leon walk over to her "I gotta go on a mission eastern slav republic" Leon explains
"Ok I'll go with you" Erin stands up
"uh no Its too dangerous you've seen the news Your not going in your condition"
"Leon I can handle myself" Erin walks over to Leon
"I know you can but come on look you at you your pregnant I can't risk you can't we can't risk it" Leon argues
Erin takes Leon's hands and sighs "Leon I'm gonna have you there so if anything happens I have you there come on I'm EV still"
"be careful I'm going to make sure you and our baby girl are safe and protected"
"I know" Erin hugs him
Eastern slav Republic
Erin in her cape and mask running with Leon in between building hearing gunfire yelling and explosions. Erin feels her head groaning "too much running"
"we're gonna take a little break hold on" Leon's phone rings "moving into position"
"Copy I've got a clear view of you from the sky" Hunnigan asks on video in Leon's phone
Leon and Erin look up "great maybe you can help find a clear route to the CIA Drop off"
"Leon" Erin yells as an explosion nearly hits them
"Look like they're doing some serious renovavtions down here" sarcastically says
"Listen to me carefully you two Your mission has been aborted The U.S. is going to pull out of the country" Hunnigan explains
"What Erin and I Just got here after taking us off furlough and sending us to this godforsaken place what the hell" Leon raises his voice in annoyance
"Washington and the government there have decided to go their seperate ways everyone has to leave not just embassy staff All american citizens have been ordered to evacuate the country even you Erin" Hunnigan explains
"I don't give a damn about the politics we've got confirmation that B.O.Ws are being used in this war if we don't stop them now the same shit will happen everywhere do you really wanna see that" Leon angrily asks
"This is a war and things are different no one can do anything without backup from the american government I know Erin you have but you cannot do this pregnant and not even you Leon if she can't you can't" Hunnigan sternly lectures
"Well Then I guess Our only option is to my american citzenship for a while"
"Leon Erin" Hunnigan yells as Leon hangs up "She can tell them I got lost and missed my flight"
"right" Erin replies
"Erin get on the next plane"
"remember our vows for better or for worse"
Leon sighs "remember to be careful" Leon pulls Erin's cape in covering her bump "can't have people finding out your pregnant"
"I know" Erin says as her and Leon run off
Time skip
Erin and Leon stare at a honey truck and explosions in the distance. "Better hurry and get this done I need some breakfast" leon runs into a parking garage
"don't tempt me leon" Erin runs behind him as they looking around the parking garage
Erin and Leon turn around to a bloody man on his knees
Why didn't I feel him around I usally do
Leon and erin run over to him as Leon lifts up the man "scarecrow I'm the tin man can you talk" Leon asks but only the man groaning in pain is what he gets "I need to know what's the connection between anti-government forces and the B.O.W.s" Leon looks up at Erin "I guess scarecrows aren't known for rousing conversation hang in there we'll get you out of here" Leon starts to walk off but stop to hear
"bee"
Leon walks back "what" Leon picks his head up "say that again"
"Bee...keeper"
"Beekeeper" leon questions
"the truck" Erin turns around and gasps "Leon" Erin pushes Leon out of the way as a licker slashes the scarecrow
"thanks" Leon stands up helping Erin up too "Great now we got a cowardly Lion to deal with" Leon aims his gun at the Licker as the Licker jumps at Leon and chases after him
"Leon" Erin takes out her belt forming into her Katana following them then a huge puff of smoke of an exposion surrounds them "ow" Erin feels her stomach on the floor next to Leon
Leon attempts to get up but can't "Erin" Leon goes down as the Licker comes at him again slashing near him. The Licker growls backing off as a man walks behind the Licker
Leon faints as Erin attempts to get up but faints
