CHEMICAL (RE: V Leon Kennedy x Reader) [Leon POV] [Book#3]

Chapter Five: Just Like the Old Days

Once (Y/n) left the room, Rebecca took over and begins to explain to us further in detail.

(Rebecca)-"This virus is right under our noses. Always has been." 

(Chris)-"I don't follow." Amateur.

(Rebecca)-"We don't need to look for some new virus that Arias is infecting people with. The virus is lying dormant inside of everyone. Even you. What we need to find is the trigger. Something activates the latent virus, and only Arias knows what it is. But until we find that out, everyone, living and dead, are his potential weapons. If we don't figure this out now, there wont be little towns like this for you to drink your sorrows away in ever again." All right, I get it. I already got yelled at by (Y/n), Rebecca doesn't need to continue. 

(Rebecca)-"I created a vaccine, and I tried it on myself and it works. But until we find out how Arias triggers the virus, who knows if it'll work the same for everyone else. My blood holds the answers. If I die, get this to a lab you trust." She slams the tube of her blood carefully to not break it onto the table in front of Chris.  

(Rebecca)-"I can't imagine what you two have been through. But I know that neither one of you are the type of person who would sit here and argue while the world dies. That's not who you are. Or is it?" I lower my head slightly viewing the table.  Rebecca leaves heading in the same direction where (Y/n) went. I lift my chin up taking a look at Chris, he too feels just as bad. 

(Chris)-"Look, I know what you're going through. I've been there. Its a dark place and vodka isn't going to fix the problem." 

(Leon)-"Whiskey." I corrected.

(Chris)-"Huh?" 

(Leon)-"Whiskey is more my kind." 

(Chris)-"Regardless of what kind of alcohol, that shits not going to help you." 

(Leon)-"I know." It numbs the pain only for a little while. I'd like to drink right now but what good would that do? I'd probably get yelled at again by (Y/n) and Rebecca if they catch me.

(Man)- "Leon!" That voice instantly gets me heated. I turn my head seeing the man that costed me everything. 

(Leon)- "Patricio!" I got up from my seat rushing over to him. I grab onto the collar of his jacket pinning him against the wooden pillar. He lets out a pained groan. 

(Chris)- "What're you doin--"

(Leon)-"That guy I told you about. The one that sold out my unit." I grit my teeth feeling my anger rising. I want to kill him for what he did.

(Patricio)- "You don't understand. Ugh--! " I press my forearm hard against his throat. He turns his head looking to someone near. I can only assume it's Rebecca or (Y/n). 

(Patricio)- "Pl-please--"

(Leon)- "This is the guy." I say coldly. I hope he rots in hell. 

(Waitress)- "Hey! What do you--?" 

(Chris)- "Official business. It's okay." The waitress came to check what the situation is about, I felt Chris place a hand on my shoulder as he took care of the waitress from possibly calling the police. I couldn't contain my anger, I jab my fist into Patricio's gut. He hunches over but I grab him and pin him to the pillar again. 

(Y/n)- "Please. Leon...stop." 

(Leon)- "What do you want?" I ignore her and focus on Patricio. He couldn't hold himself up and slides down to the ground lifting a cautious arm to defend himself from me. 

(Patricio)- "Please. You're the only one I know from the DSO. It's my family. You've got to save them." 

(Leon)- "What?" I heard him perfectly clear. I need him to say it again to provide more details just so I can refuse him.
