Resident Evil: Vengeance 29 Confrontation

"I could ask you the same thing," She replies, her tone and expression becoming one of irritation, "You're the one who died after all," She turns around and resumes typing on the computer. Derek walks up to her side, glancing at the screen. She's making copies of files.

"What are those?"

"Don't know, don't care," The files finish copying and she closes the window, pulling out a usb. She then throws all the files she made copies off into the recycle bin and deletes them permanently.

"Are you working with Luther?"

"Yes, and it's just as bad as the time I worked for you back in Racc.o.o.n City,"

"Why are you working for him then?" Ada glances at him, a burning anger in her eyes.

"...I have my reasons," She puts the usb in her pocket, "Now let's go we have a job to do,"

Before Derek and Ada can move to the hallway door, they hear someone grab the doork.n.o.b. Ada quickly runs for a door to the side of the desk, Derek quickly following. As they run into a side room the door to the hall bursts open, Jacob pointing his gun at them and firing but his gun only clicks.

"f.u.c.k, out of bullets!" They hear Jacob exclaim as Ada shuts the door behind them and locks. Looking around she sees a window and another door leading back out to the hall. She lifts the window up before heading to the door, Jacob now banging on the door. Ada peeks her head out into the hall, seeing Page running into Jacob's office. Her and Derek walk out into the hall, quickly closing the door behind them. As they walk up to Jacob's office door they hear Jacob break into the room they were just in.

Ada and Derek quickly take off down the hall, and soon hear Jacob and Page running after them. They run into a break room, Ada pulling up the window and the two heading out onto a fire escape. Ada pulls out her hookshot, shooting the building right next to the station and flying up towards the wall. She goes higher than the station's roof, reaching the wall on the other building. As she nears the wall she turns around and lets go of the trigger, kicking off the wall and landing onto the station roof. Derek quickly pulls up his hookshot and follows after. As he lands Ada looks at his hookshot.

"Here I thought the clones of me were going too far...Are you going to start dressing like me too?"

"No, I just figured this would be handy for my mission," Derek objects, trying to sound more angry than he really is.

It seems her feelings for me haven't changed, if anything she seems to hate me even more. Why must you do this to me Ada?

"Speaking of which, what's my new mission?"

"Luther wants us to seperate Jacob and Page to see how they'll do on their own. I'm ordered with keeping an eye on Jacob and you'll be watching Page, hopefully they'll stay far away from each other,"

Derek wants to continue to talk, but can't think of anything to say.

"Now we just have to figure out how we're gonna do that…" She turns around, looking at all the surrounding buildings as she tries to think of possible plans.

I doubt I'll have much time to talk to her, I need to get her back.

"...Ada,"

"What?" She answers irritably as she turns back to him, her anger sending daggers into him.

"I, I just want you to know that, even though you did do a lot to kill me back in China...my feelings for you never died…" Her expression of anger softens a bit.

"I don't know if I should feel sorry for you or laugh. I guess stabbing you and dropping you in an inferno of flames wasn't clear enough, so I'll tell you with words," She states as she walks up to Derek, "I don't love you, I never loved you, and I'll never love you. Ever. For a man whose so smart you just can't seem to understand that. You don't seem to be infected with the C-Virus anymore, but it's clear that your obsession still plagues your brain. Luther told me to keep tabs on you too and if he feels like you're falling out of line he'll turn you back into the monster you are, and I'll be tasked with having to kill you again, so stay focused,"

Her confession leaves Derek at a loss for words, a bitter cold freezing his insides.

"...Alright, so, what do we do..?" He asks weakly.

Before Ada can respond her phone starts to vibrate.

"Yes?" She asks as she answers her phone, "Alright, on it," She puts her phone away, "Luther's been listening in on Jacob's phone and got word of a zipline they're gonna use. They should be coming up soon, so I'm gonna head to the other side of the street and once the first one crosses I'll break the line," She checks her handgun before putting it away and grabbing her hookshot, "Here," She grabs something off her belt, "A flash grenade in case you screw up. Go hide somewhere, and once we find out who is on what side, we'll know where to go from there,"

Derek nods, attaching the flash grenade to his belt as he heads to the stairwell entrance, going behind it and out of sight as Ada heads to the edge of the roof. Using her hookshot, she grapples across the street and lands on a building on the other side. It doesn't take long for Jacob and Page to come walking out onto the roof. The two setup the zipline and shoot it across, the zipline reaching a building quite some distance away.

"Wait for me to detach before coming across, alright?" Jacob asks.

"Alright," Page responds.

Seems like I'll be staying here, guess it's a good thing, I nearly slipped kicking my foot against the wall to get up here.

Derek peeks out from behind the stairwell entrance and sees Jacob going down the zipline. He gets to the other end and Page starts to attack her gear to it. The sound of a gun shot fills the air as the zipline is cut in two. Page and Jacob soon start having a conversation over their radios.

"...Fine, we'll meet at the s.h.i.+pyard. See that tall building over there with the glowing red antenna?" Jacob's voice says.

"Y-Yeah I see it," Page replies.

"That's the direction the s.h.i.+pyard is in.

Now's my chance to sneak back inside. Maybe this place has a security room with monitors I can just use to watch her from a distance.

As Derek tries to sneak inside the stairwell he hears Jacob yelling.

"Behind you!"

Derek rushes down the stairs, entering the first door he comes across, hearing Page enter the stairwell above just as he enters the floor. A large waiting room of sorts with golden tiled floors and fancy furniture and decorations. He runs to the nearest door, opening it and quickly running into a janitor's closet. By the time he closes the door he notices someone crouched down on the ground, eating away at a corpse. A zombie with grey skin quickly takes notice of him and stands up, it's shallow breathing sending s.h.i.+vers down his spine.

Derek quickly grabs his rifle and shoots the zombie in the head. The bullet leaves a large whole in its head, which starts to quickly fill back up.

Oh h.e.l.l no!

Derek runs out of the room, but before he can slam the door shut he sees Page standing a few feet from him. He grabs the flash grenade, removing the pin and chucking it into the air.

"Wait-!" Page exclaims as Derek runs past her, the flash bang soon going off.

He runs back into the stairwell and enters the eighth floor. Looking around he sees a set of stairs across the hall in front of him. He hurries down them and makes a left upon reaching another hall, hearing the door to the stairwell open up. Seeing a door labeled armory far down the hall Derek quietly huries over, hearing a bit of Page and Jacob's conversation.

"The fronts barricaded, and I'd rather not go down the fire escape to see the bull waiting for me," Page states.

"There's a parking garage across the street, it's connected to the station by an underground tunnel, but that also has barricades which activate alongside the front's barricades. You'll have to get to the security room down on the first floor and use an unlock card…"

Nearing the armory he can't make out what they're saying anymore. He enters the armory, seeing all the lockers are unlocked. He heads over to the lockers and goes to one full of various handguns. Not having a handgun, Derek grabs one, checking if it fits onto his chest holster. No. No. No. Finally. A black handgun with a silver barrel that looks like it packs quite a punch fits perfectly into the holster. In the far left locker he finds it full of various holsters and bags for ammo.

He grabs one, filling it up with handgun and rifle ammo, before he checks the other lockers for anything else of use. As he heads back to the right he hears a loud thud coming from somewhere far above. In the locker on the far right he finds grenades and flash grenades. As he grabs three and puts them on his belt the loud noises upstairs continue, along with some gunshots.

What the h.e.l.l could she be shooting at?

He quickly heads out of the room and heads for the stairs back up to the eighth floor. As he reaches the stair he stops as he listens to something starting to move in the vents. Not wanting to find out what it could be he hurries to the stairwell door, but stops when he hears someone moving inside. He waits for the footsteps to grow farther away before he enters. Peeking his head down the stairwell he sees Page several floors below. As she looks up he quickly moves away from the railing and hears her running down the stairs. He quickly follows, only making it down a couple floors before hearing a door open and close.

He heads down to the first floor, and peeks his head through the door, seeing no one in the hall, but hearing a loud crash. Derek enters the first floor only to se Page run into view, she glances at him before she turns back to something out of sight, bringing up her gun and starting to shoot at it.

"Tell me where Luther is!" A man's voice shouts angrily. He hears rapid footsteps as Page runs towards the front of the building moments before something comes swinging at her. It's barely out of sight, causing Derek to run up to the end of the hall to get a better look. As he reaches the lobby he brings up his handgun and peeks his head over the corner to look into the lobby. He sees Page shoot at a man in a blood-stained suit, a large tentacle-like limb tipped with a large sharp scythe made from bone sticking out of his back.

A buisness man, he must have been making deals with Luther and got betrayed...like me…

As Derek watches Page fight this monster of a man, something inside him starts to well up, a flame igniting inside him. A fire burning from a sudden anger that fills his body, one that wants him to act, to kill this creature that reminds him of what he used to be, of what he had become before he met his demise.

Derek's snapped out of his thoughts when hears the man suddenly roar in anger and suddenly start to charge towards Page. The fire inside him erupts, forcing him to act, and before he knows it he steps into the lobby and brings up his gun, shooting the man in the back of the head. Page jumps out of the way and the guy slams into the wall. Something about that shot felt, good, felt right, like he was suppose to do that, like he was doing something he was suppose to for the first time. Derek's too focused on the man to worry about Page seeing him.

"That's, it!" The man shouts before using the limb on his back to stab into a nearby zombie. Turning towards them, the man chucks the zombie at Page. Page ducks to avoid it as Derek shoots at the man a couple more times as he grabs another zombie. This one gets chucked at Derek who jumps out of the way. Derek and Page continue to shoot at the man as he starts to move towards them.

"You think you can kill me?!" The man exclaims, "I won't die until I kill Luther with my own two hands!" The guy comes charging at them, the limb on his back getting ready to swing at them. Derek is surprised when Page suddenly starts running towards the man, and dives down, sliding past the man and under his scythe as it swings towards them. Derek dives to the side to avoid being cut in half, quickly getting up and shooting at the guy.

"Eat this you piece of s.h.i.+t!" Derek yells as he shoots the last bullets in his clip. The shutters start to come up as he goes to reload his gun but has to jump back as the man swings his scythe at him, managing to slash his left arm. Fighting through the pain he finishes reloading his gun and moves away from the man. Suddenly a window breaks as something shoots through it, hitting the man in the back.

"Take that you piece of s.h.i.+t!" Jacob's voice yells from Page's radio, "Turn around so I can shoot your face!"

"Jacob?!" Romero says with a look of bafflement and fury, "So you were a spy all along?!" He says as he turns to the windows, running up to them and looking around for Jacob. A gunshot echoes as a bullet hits Romero in the head, causing him to stumble back and cover his face. The bullet quickly falls out, Romero moving back to the window.

"Once I kill your friends, I'm coming for you!" He shouts at the window. His attention is caught once more when Page runs for the stairwell. Derek quickly follows after her, Romero disappearing back into the vents as he goes to chase them.
