Chapter 2
"Wha---"
I touched the end call button on my phone, only to see a picture of Jill and I kissing.. I immediately threw the phone on the bed.. My conscience was tugging me, requesting that I take a walk around the famous White House to clear my mind.. I took my room key off the lamp stand and exited the room.
I took only a few steps down the hallway, to my surprise Helena was out also, she was holding two Styrofoam cups.
"Hey, I was on my way to your room. I bought you a smoothie." She said extending her arms out to give me the cup.
"Thanks, but may I ask why did you buy me this?" I responded, while accepting the gift.
"Just being kind and thoughtful, you looked down and sad in the president's office so I thought a smoothie would help cheer you up" she said.
"I'm happy that you were concern about me.. Seeya tomorrow" I said going the opposite direction.
I came across a balcony just a few steps away from my bedroom, D.C was silent this night or maybe I was more focused on clearing my mind that I subconsciously blocking out all ambient noise. Many past events passed through my mind that I spent with Jill.. The Arklay mansion, escaping Raccoon, the queen Zenobia.. And finally the Kajuwi incident. It's kinda funny how we didn't love intervene with our job, but now it's different.. Love is my motivation to keep going forward.
Time passed, I finally decided to make my way back to my room to call it a night.. It was a shit ton of traveling and I didn't get any sleep last night neither did I sleep while traveling.
I made it to my room without anything to delay my trip. I lie on the soft, comfortable bed, and fell into a deep sleep..
I felt something, or someone nudging against my chest, I awaken from my seemingly short slumber to find a woman in my arms.. It was Jill.
"But how?" I questioned myself.
She wakes up with a warm, comforting, smile on her face. After seeing that I could really careless how, but happy that's she's here again. However, something feels odd. It's feels as if I already been here.. dajavu?
"You know that breakfast you promised me weeks ago would be great now since we have time off" She said while giggling.
I nodded, I couldn't speak for some odd reason.. Muted, but she could understand the body language that I directed towards her. We got out of bed and prepped ourselves for breakfast at the local dinner.
Once at the diner our waitress, who's face looked vaguely familiar gave us two cups of coffee.. The diner was surprisingly quiet.. It felt as if Jill and I along with the diner's staff were the only people there.
Jill took my hands and put them on the table. She sighed..
"We have to talk.."
I was still unable to speak to her, for some odd reason so I just nodded my head again. Signaling that I was listening.
"Our jobs require us to put our very own lives on the line daily to ensure that others won't experience the same thing we did in Raccoon.. "
She became tearing eyed. I remained silent, and motionless.
"But if I ever die doing my job, just promise me that you will continue on and not quit because I'm not there with you.."
As she spoke to me everything blacken around us, there was this wooden door behind her. As it opened a black figure emerged from the door. It extended it arms to drag Jill's chair into the door.. I held on to her hand but the black figure was stronger and over powered me dragging her into the door. I leaped over the table and charged through the door.
On the other side of the door I somehow changed into my BSAA uniform with my gear...
"Takes you back, doesn't it?" Jill said walking down hall way in what seems as if a mansion I quickly hugged her, relieved to find out that she was ok.
"Whatever happen to 'We can't let love distract us from the mission'" she said, mocking me. "I'll be fine, stop worrying"
At that point in time I didn't care about what I previously said. I dropped the hug, and no matter how bad I wanted to speak.. I couldn't.
"Now c'mon, we have to find info on spencer" she said while walking around the corner.. I followed behind her only to become blinded by a mysterious white light.. My vision slowly transitions to normal.. As I like down I'm holding Jill's pale body in my arms.. She was overwhelmed by the infected.. Nothing could save her, the evac chopper was miles away and by the time they got here she'd be long gone.. Or even worse, a zombie.
"J---J--Just leave me here, I don't want to put your life or the extraction unit lives at risk.." She said to me.
I acknowledge her request and did as she said.. Tears leaked from both of my eyes..
"D-- don't forget..... The promise.." Those were her finals words.
I closed her eyelids and gently rested her body on the bedroom's bed, and walked out the bedroom door to see the same white flash.. As I slowly regain my vision the sun beams into my eyes.. It was only a dream..
I rose from the bed and went into the bathroom to prep myself for the beginning of my newest assignment. I packed the light weighted BSAA uniform to wear because after a while the bullet proof vests and armor becomes tiring to carry around.
I quickly changed clothes and reported to the Oval Office to be briefed.
"Ah! Agent Chapple! You're finally here. We've just received intel from BSAA HQ stating that Ada Wong is behind all of this bioterroist attack in Toky--"
"What? But I thought she was confirmed dead weeks ago?" I interrupted..
Helena walked in the office, she wore khaki tight pants, a red denim jacket with a white t shirt, and with brown boots on.
Helena sat silent, as if she was holding something in.. Something confidential.
The president sighs," yes, that's what we thought, then we found this video recording last night under MY very own bed."
The president threw a clear cube at me, luckily my hand eye was on point and I caught it just before it hit my face.. I opened the cube only to see Ada's face..
"You really thought it was over after the mass infection if China? And my "Death"? Think again Mr president.. This is only the beginning..." The video recording ended.
"She's a sight for sore eyes, and she's Asian.. Sure she doesn't have feelings for you Alex?" I joked..
The president chuckled.
"In other news.. Your ride is here, agent Birkin will escort you there."
Helena and I exit the office, a young blonde woman who looked as if she was in her mid twenties escorted us to the helipad. On the way there I made a mistake a bumped into a woman with blonde hair.. She fell unto the ground..
"Excuse me, I'm so sor---" I said while helping her up.. She looked familiar.. Her eyes. They were colorless..
"I'm sorry, I have to go.." She said while rushing off into the opposite direction.
"No, it can't be.. I watched her die.. Maybe it's the dream that has my mind everywhere.." I thought to myself.
"You sure have a way with the ladies" Helena said...
I chuckled, and continued to follow agent Birkin to the helipad.
Helena and I load into the copter and we took off to Tokyo.
[Blonde Woman's Pov]
"I gotta find a way to Tokyo to make sure he's ok, and Ada doesn't kill him.. I can't lose him again." She said to herself..
"But at least he kept his promise..."
