Claire's Pov"Claire!" Leon yelled my name in both concern and frustration, my body being pulled to the floor by a rather bulky zombie. I bared my teeth as my gun was no longer in my hand and sailed across the slippery floor. My eyes wide in horror, it all happened so fast I forgot how to breathe while a bloodthirsty monster groaned above me.
I groaned as well in my attempt to shove the undead creature away from my neck, my knee moving to the groin of the creature in desperation. It felt nothing, the only thing it could feel was the burning desire for my blood.
Fuck!
The shot sounded and the zombie fell limp while I dodged blood. The beast that attacked me was merely the first because soon after at least seven undead creatures fell flat. I was on my ass and elbow as I stared in horror, my knees pressed together.
I could hear the awful groan of new creatures approaching.
I was swift in being on my feet, my gun being captured swiftly whereby I eliminated whatever threat came my way, the two zombies falling limp onto each other. Leon's gaze was firm, my gun being reloaded as I avoided his gaze.
There was an impending lecture, I could feel it.
"That was reckless" He lectured and I took a deep breath. I could not deny this statement because I acted on impulse minutes ago."Very reckless" I agreed and Leon issued a quizzical stare while I brushed my knees off. In the complex world of men and women it was a surprise to hear a woman admit her error.
If I am being quite honest it felt as though I scraped the words from my tongue minutes ago. I don't think I would get a second chance at showering yet here I was being absolutely 'reckless'. That creature's blood could have been all over me!
"I am beginning to believe you enjoy the most complex situations, are all pretty girls like that?" he continued and I sighed, blue eyes piercing gray eyes. Why did everyone believe that I enjoyed getting into trouble?
Wait, did he just call me pretty? My cheeks grew warm and I sincerely hoped that my face was not red at this point.
"I know what I did was enormously stupid, she was helpless and I could only feel bad for her" I confessed and Leon stared at my arms and neck. He was checking for injuries, I could see it in his eyes.
"Are you hurt?" he asked and I shook my head.
"No, I'm fine. We have to find her before something else does" I stated firmly and he gave me one last look before we were moving again.
"We will," Leon insisted as we came upon what appeared to be a dead end, our eyes moving to the ladder present on the wall. I had an odd feeling about this but vocalized it in now way, Leon turning to me whereby I slowly nodded. We had finished exploring the station and there was nothing here, we had to see where this path led.
Hold on little girl, we won't allow you to die in the midst of this mess.Leon took hold of the metallic ladder , his head being positioned to look at me.
"Remain alert" he warned as he mounted the metallic structure.
"Roger" I replied in a stiff tone, my eyes moving below my feet momentarily. Odd enough I could picture numerous zombies pulling me from the metallic structure aggressively. I tried pushing the thought to the back of my mind, with all the shit we've been through that was a negative thought that was not needed.
Slowly I could see the light of the surface as Leon slid a metallic lid aside. Leon had his gun aimed before exiting, his eyes on me with his hand outstretched. I took the hand offered, the lid being placed to its respective position the moment I was lying on asphalt.
The moment we adjusted our postures within the depths of an underground parking lot we were attacked by zombie dogs, the dogs being taken down before Leon and I could fire. Leon and I looked at each other before our eyes moved to the darkest area of the parking lot. Most importantly we were glaring at the direction of the bullets, an Asian woman wearing a brown coat emerging.
She was gorgeous, her body swaying while her spike heels clicked against asphalt. Leon stared at her in a different way and I could not help a slight sting that existed within me. She aimed her gun at us momentarily, my gun removed while Leon was yet to say something.
While it was good to see yet another survivor this was far from what I had expected.
"We are far from infected" I stated and her eyes fell on me and I could not help but to feel inferior. She was absolutely fashionable and gorgeous in the midst of this nightmare.
"I can see that, I am FBI agent Ada Wong" she said this while showing her Identification card, her gun lowered.
"Claire Redfield" I greeted politely as she turned her gaze to Leon.
"Leon S Kennedy, have you seen a small blond girl, about twelve years old?" Leon asked and Ada raised a brow.
"No, I haven't" She replied flatly as she lowered and examined one of the dogs she killed.
"Do you have any idea as to what happened in this city?" I asked and she pulled her eyes from the dog to place them on me."Look, there is a lot going on right now so it's best if you and your boyfriend get out of this city. Everything regarding this matter is highly classified" she was on her feet again.
"Classified?" Leon mumbled and I touched my chest as heat rose to my cheek. Boyfriend?
"Actually he's not-" Ada interrupted before I could get my words in."You're a cop aren't you?" She eyed his attire, Leon placing his gun to his hip. It was clear that he was slightly pissed as she regarded needed answers to be classified.
"I believe that is highly classified" Leon retorted and I had to pull my lower lip between my teeth in order to prevent laughter. Ada did not seem amused and I tried my very best not to laugh at the pair.
"Look, if you two don't mind I have work to do" and with that she disappeared into the midst of darkness, my arms crossed as I stared at the shadows.
"Well she was friendly" I mumbled and Leon paid attention to the metallic gate which was closed.
"You don't happen to have a keycard?" Leon asked and I really wished he was your average guy. He dismissed my attempt to learn if he found the stranger attractive, my hands in my bag the moment he asked the question."Tough luck but I believe I know where to find it" I stated and Leon looked at me as though he approved. It was back into the hell hole but I believe Leon and I should be just fine.
