It's been a week after Vergil's kidnapping of Dante and Ashley's infiltration into the lab.

Faith was growing more unstable and more wild as she was treated like an animal by Wesker's scientists, making Piers worry of her condition.

The soldier walked around his small glass cell, he couldn't see anything more than blurry images because of the glass' texture, and jumped when a black shadow stood over him.

Piers prepared himself for the syringe full of white liquid that would be injected to him or the spray of sleeping gas on him, but it never came.

Looking up, his eyes widened in shock as the roof of the glass cell was opened to reveal Vergil staring down at him.

Piers struggled as Vergil lifted him by the back of his clothes, and thrashed around the Nephilim's hold, hoping he could get free.

He could have used the electricity blast from his infected arm, but Piers knew he could get himself killed as the collar around his arm would inject a rather venomous poison the moment he decides to light up a spark.

"Adorable really." Vergil teased as Piers glared back at him, and the Nephilim closed the glass cell before depositing him into a cage made out of bard wires.

Piers knew those wires were lined with electricity volts, so thrashing around the cell won't do him any good. Instead, Piers decided to keep calm and waited to see what Vergil had in store for him.

On their way, Piers could vividly make out a familiar figure leaning against the wall dressed in a red-collared shirt. She was staring at her phone intently before she lifted her head and her eyes settled on Piers' cage.

"Ada..." Piers exclaimed in shock, didn't she died after one of the agents of the Family shot her and she fell from the deck of the ship?

"And who's the little one?" Piers heard Ada said as he was lifted up and stared at Ada in the eye.

"You're the BSAA soldier following the captain in China. Nice to see you again." Ada said with a small smirk on her lips, and the door beside her opened with a hiss.

"I'm warning you. If you don't at least kiss Albert on the cheek, I'm breaking your toys."

Ashley grumbled as she stepped out of the room, a body bag was slinged over her shoulder as she threw the bag on the floor, calling out a few workers to dispose of the body.

"What happened this time?" Ada asked as Ashley dusted her hands with an unimpressed look.

"Sunglasses over there has been getting a tad bit annoying to deal with lately. He destroyed half the data on Project Necromancer with his fist and killed off one of the guards posted."

Wesker was getting more agitated these past few days that he would simply lash out at anyone who did not follow his orders correctly.

Just in the last two days, Wesker already killed off four of their scientists after Project Necromancer became unstable no matter how many test they had undergo.

Vergil suppressed a shiver as he thought of Wesker dealing the killing blow to him. But fortunately, Vergil knew he was an important asset to Wesker, and would not be so careless enough to kill him. Not to mention he had taken such a great liking to Vergil, especially in bed.

Vergil scoffed awkwardly at the thought, before he turned his attention to the two women in the room.

"I'll have a word with Wesker. Has he taken my brother down the testing chambers?"

Piers raised an eyebrow at that. He never knew Vergil had a brother before. Than again, he had only been here for two weeks tops.

Ashley nodded her head. "He's at Chamber One. Don't supposed you need any help with coaxing him."

Ashley winked playfully at the Nephilim and Vergil chewed on his bottom lips as he knows both women had figured out the secret relationship between him and Wesker.

"Anyways, I should attend to more pressing matters. Your rooms are ready as we speak."

Ada and Ashley nodded before the two walked in the opposite direction from where Vergil came, and the Nephilim stepped into the room, making sure to lock it behind him.
