Worth Waiting *BOOK 4*

Chapter 1

A women, with a long black hair was tying her hair into a high pony tail and looked at herself in the mirror as she took a deep breath. She was summoned once again on a mission to protect President Graham. The first time she met the president, she was nervous. But the president's face expressions was surprised.

The president thought she went MIA, which made her confused. But she just let it go and focused on the mission she's on.

"You're the third agent? Where's the fourth? There's supposed to be four of us."

"Make that five. Leon and Belle should be on their way."

"Wait, are they the ones they're talking about? The ones who saved the president's daughter?"

"Yep! Those are the ultimate couple. They're more than qualified."

"Qualified? More like lucky. The only reason they're the ultimate couple is because they were in a wrong pace at the right time."

"Leon successfully handled dozens of critical missions. In fact, he's on his way here from that terror attack in Pittsburgh. As for Belle, she went MIA and now she returned."

"Like I said-"
"In this line of work, luck doesn't solve problems. Skills do."

Leon was on his way to the White House by helicopter. He really got special treatment, by the president. He glanced at the near window and saw the White House, memories came through his mind and thought of Belle. He sighed and looked at his bracelet that she left for him. He had never took it off.

"Wow, I never had a clearance to land that fast before. You must be important." The pilot said. Leon didn't say anything but remain his composure as the plane lands.

Belle walked out of her room and she head to the White House. As soon as she walked through the entrance, the guards recognized her and was confused. They also thought she went MIA, but they just let it go since that's their orders.

She walked down the hallway and electricity went out. Just like a snap of a finger. She felt the familiar feeling, like it happened before.

Flashbacks started to zoom into her mind, remembering the horror in Raccoon City. She remembered a few of them, but there was one that she doesn't seem to remember, it's only bits of pieces. She shook her head and slowly opened her eyes, seeing the hallways that's already dark.

She pulled out her gun and started to search for any survivors around the White House.

She carefully turned the corner and a zombie popped out of nowhere. It tackled her to the ground. She did her best not to get bitten, she punched the zombie in the face and pulled the trigger while aiming on its head.

She got up, not believing on what's happening. More screaming was heard, and Belle followed it. And then she heard gun shots.

"Shoot them in head, that'll stop them." she heard the voice. An zombie stood behind her and started to growl. She quickly turned around and dodged the zombie. She dodged rolled out of her hiding spot and shot the zombie.

"Agent Clearfield!"

Her name was called as she turned to the person who called her.

Leon stood there, shocked. He didn't know what to say.

"You alright, Patrick?" She asked.
"Yeah."

Again, Leon was still in shock.
"Let's get back with the others. We need to protect the president. That's our first priority." Belle suggested.

Patrick nodded and got up and left first. Belle soon followed but was stopped. Leon did not move.

"Agent Kennedy."

Leon was startled and turned to the person who called him.

"Let's get going." She said.
"R-right."

Why do I have these feelings? There's a lot of talk about Agent Kennedy and I. Many stories of us. And we're lovers...these feelings...they're happy? Sadness? Relieved?

Leon and Belle entered the president's office, with guns pointed at them.

"Wait! It's us!" Patrick exclaimed.

The other agents slowly put their guns down with a sigh in relief.

"Another zombie outbreak, be prepared." Belle said.

"SWAT's en route. They can deal with the zombies up here and getting the power back up. We'll head to the bunker." Jason said, as he opened a secret wall, and started to pass around some guns and armors.

"Are they really zombies?" The president asked.
"Yes sir." Leon replied, handing the gun to Belle, which she gladly took it.

"Sorry, I didn't get here any sooner." Leon added.

"Not at all. I'm indebted to you and Belle for getting my daughter, Ashely back. Besides, you're both here, I'm sure we all will survive this." The president said.

Belle was confused on what the president said. She caught the glance of Leon and looked back on the floor.

"I've never seen things like this happened in Raccoon City will happen here."

"We all ready? Let's get the president to the bunker. Stay sharp out there." Jason said.

Raccoon City

Belle had another flashback of her past.
She first saw and herself with a cop, trying to escape the police station. The cop turned to her and held his hand and gently smiled.

"Don't worry. I'm here."

Belle shook her head and went back to reality. Leon continued to stared at her, as if he has lots of questions.

"Everybody ready? Let's get the president to the bunker." Jason said.

___________________________________________
Leon, Belle, and Jason are leading the squad in front. Leading the president to the bunker. As they turned the corner, a zombie turn towards them, about to attack.

Belle began to shoot as they continued. The president looks at the zombie as they go.

"Why are they here?" Leon mumbled to himself. Which Belle heard him say. Another memory flashes through her mind again.

"You know, this apocalypse thing going. I always thought this only happens in the movies."

"Well, it's happening now."

"I probably jinxed it. Me and my big mouth."

Belle stared at his back as they ran. Leon was so focus on the job at the moment.

They got to a elevator and one of the agents pressed the password for the door to open.

"Patrick, stay with the president. Leon, Belle, Shen May, with me." Jason ordered.

He then stopped in front of the two couple and stared.

"I'm counting on those skills of yours." Jason said.

Belle rolled her eyes. "Yeah yeah. You as well."

Leon looked at her as if she was being silly. Usually she would do that type of talk.

He then looked at her wrist, she was also wearing the bracelet.

He was more than surprised...and has questions to be answered.

"Hey Patrick. You good?" Belle asked.
"Yeah. I'm...just a little freak out. I've never seen zombies before." He replied.

"Yeah, I was like that too. Feels like we're in a zombie apocalypse movie, isn't it?" Belle said.

When Leon heard that....it's exactly what Belle would say.

"But don't feel dumb. I'm sure everyone is freaked out." Belle said.

Patrick chuckled. "Thanks for back there. Both of you."

Leon gave him a pat on the back while Belle gave him a smile.
