Blue: Well, we continue to ball and deal with the outposts. We take them down, one by one. No need to rush. And if Wesker does show his face, I'll win.

With everyone now focused, Heisenberg glanced at Blue.

Heisenberg: You sure you're up for it?

Blue: Ye

With Wesker temporarily out of the picture and the mind-controlled BSAA soldiers freed, Blue and the rest of the group turned their attention to stabilising the outpost.

The soldiers, still shaken from the control of the Flower Mold, were disoriented but grateful to be free.

Blue, Jill, Claire, and the others quickly organised them, helping secure the base and reinforce its defenses. The mood had shifted from tense confusion to one of cautious relief.

Blue, limping slightly from his injuries, moved from room to room, assisting where he could. Luckily his healing factor was working, although not by much as he hadn't lost a limb or two.

He and Heisenberg helped the BSAA soldiers repair broken equipment, while Eveline and Ashley tended to the wounded, offering what medical aid they could.

Cassandra, despite her usual sharp demeanor, worked alongside them, ensuring the soldiers knew they weren’t alone....she still hated it

Jill, standing next to Blue as they watched the soldiers regain their footing, crossed her arms and sighed.

Jill: Well, one down...two to go.

Blue: Ashley told me that the next one is about two hours away on foot, but now that we’ve got the whips and that, it’ll be much faster.....just don't let Heisenberg drive

Heisenberg: Fuck you, I'm driving!

Blue glanced over at the lineup of trucks and jeeps that had been sitting unused due to the chaos and sighed. They were now ready to transport them to the next objective. However, something was weighing on his mind.

He looked over at Ashley, Eveline, and Daniela, who were talking among themselves, trying to reassure the newly-freed soldiers.

Blue: I don’t think we need to bring everyone to the next outpost. I’m mainly talking about Ashley, Eveline, and Daniela. They’ve done enough here, and things could get a lot worse.

Jill: Yeah, I get it. We don’t know what else is waiting for us, and they’re not as experienced in combat situations like this.

Before Blue could say anything more, Eveline’s sharp hearing caught wind of the conversation. She glanced over at Blue with a raised eyebrow.

Eveline: Wait, are you saying we’re staying behind?

Daniela: You’re not leaving us here, Blue

Ashley, normally more reserved in situations like these, stepped forward with a firm expression.

Ashley: We can help, Blue. You can’t just cut us out.

Blue sighed, already knowing where this was headed. He had been trying to protect them, but it was clear they weren’t going to back down without a fight.

Eveline’s eyes bore into him, challenging him silently, while Daniela’s grip on her sickle tightened, her stubbornness matching her resolve.

Even Ashley, who he thought might stay behind willingly, was standing her ground.

Blue: I just don’t want to put you three in more danger than necessary

Eveline: We’re already in danger. We’re coming with you, whether you like it or not.
