Our First Encounter *BOOK 1*

Chapter 3

"Look, do yourselves a favor, stop asking questions and get the hell out of here." She then finally exits making Leon calling out to her,

Belle felt something for this woman. She doesn't seem dangerous to her.

Why do I have a feeling that I know her. Belle thought.

Belle grunted and placed her hand on her temples. Leon looked at her, worried.

"Belle, what's wrong?"

"...."

~Flashbacks~

"Sis! Come play with me!"

The teenager smiled and hugged her little sister.

"Let's play."

"I can't Belle, I have to go train."

Belle pouted.

"Mommy, Daddy! Where are you?!"

"Belle! Where are you?!"

"____, I'm here!"

Belle slowly opened her eyes, and they met Leon's.

"You okay?" he asked.

She nodded her head.

Leon sighed out of relief.

"What happened?"

Belle don't know if she can tell Leon. She don't want to burden him. He has a lot on his shoulders.

"It's nothing. Let's keep moving." she said.

They arrived at a jail cell and noticed someone is in there. Not a zombie, but a human being.

"I don't believe it. A real human. Hello, human." the man said.

"You've been here long?" Leon asked.

"Long enough. Are we the last ones alive?" he asked.

"No, there's a few of us." Belle responded. The man looked behind Leon and saw her. He looked at her up and down.

"Well, hey there sexy."

Belle glared and aim her gun at him.

"Whoa, whoa, sweet cakes. it's just a compliment. Did Iron's sent you two?"

"Irons? You mean Cheif Irons? Is he still around?" Leon asked.

"Who cares. Hopefully, he's somebody's dinner by now."

"What do you mean by that?" Leon asked.

Are we playing 21 questions? Belle thought.

"He's the bastard that locked me in here."

"I'm sure he had a good reason." Belle stated.

"He did." the man smoked his cigarettes and threw it on the ground. "I was about to blow the whistle on his ass. I'd have done the same thing too, I guess."

The door suddenly creaked, making Belle held Leon's hand.

"Hey! I'll make you a deal. Unlock the cell and I'll give you this." the man held out the key card in front of us. "There's no way other outta that parking garge! Believe me!"

"Sorry, I can't do that. I have to talk to the chief first." Leon said.

Again, the door creaked again.

"Leon, something's not right." Belle mumbled.

"Look, the three of us are prisoners in this station. So either we play nice and help each other out---" Again, it creaked even louder.

"Shit. It's coming!"

"What's coming?" Belle asked.

"C'mon, don't be an asshole, okay? You need this! Just give me the fuck out of here!"

The wall exploded behind the man, revealing a huge, massive hand. It grabbed his face and held him up high. Belle and Leon had their gun at point.

The huge hand, then squeezed the man's head to death.

"Oh god." Belle mumbled.

Hearing footsteps after that, they both have their guard up.

"Who is that?" Leon asked.

The woman came out of the shadows. "It's just me, so you can put that thing away."

Leon sighed. "I don't even know what happened. It just happened so quick."

"I told you two to get out of here. You wouldn't want to end up like Ben, would you?" she said.

Belle glanced at Ben, who was already dead.

I can't turn back now. Belle thought.

"You knew him?" Belle asked.

"He was an informant. Had information of us to my investigation." she replied.

"So, what he said was true?"

The woman didn't reply back and she was about to walk away.

"Hey, you can't keep running away from me?" Leon said, as he grabbed her arm, but she pulled back.

"I don't even know your name! I'm Leon Kennedy and this is Belle Clearfield." Leon said.

"I can introduce myself; you know." Belle said.

Why am I getting jealous all of a sudden?

The woman looked at Leon for a few seconds and then looked at Belle for a good moment. It's like there's a connection between them.

"Find a way out, Leon. Before it's too late. Then we'll talk." she said. Again, she walked away as she says her name. "Names Ada."

"Ada?" Belled groaned in pain as another memory popped up.

"Belle!"

________________________________________________________________________________

"Ada, I'm here!"

Their house was on fire and their parents were dead. Belle was just a little girl, her older sister, Ada had to take her into safety.

"Ada, what about Mommy and Daddy?"

"They'll meet us soon. Keep on running!"

"After them!"

_____________________________________________________________________________

"Belle, what's wrong?" Leon asked.

She just shook her head and carefully got up, with Leon's help.

"It's nothing. Let's keep moving."

Is Ada...my sister?
