Hey I'm new at this so be nice. Read and review please. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to read this. I don't own Resident Evil, only all the games.

This story is Code Veronica but with Leon. I can't believe they left him out of this game, so I added him in myself.

"Great. Splitting up was a great idea." Claire said sarcastically to herself.

'Must run faster!' Claire thought. She quickly turned the corner and tripped up a little. It wasn't shortly after they arrived that they split up.

Claire noticed she hit a dead end. Even though she lost the guards, she was still screwed. The young Redfield searched around for possibly a crawlspace or a door. She spotted a small window that appeared to be sealed with a metal hatch.

"You take that hallway, I'll take this hallway." A mysterious man shouted. "Roger that." The other guard shouted back."Shit I'm cornered." Claire swallowed helplessly. To her surprise the window magically opened.

"Claire? Come on! Through here." The not so mysterious man yelled reaching out his hand. Without hesitation, Claire took his hand and slid through the window. Leon caught her. "Thanks." She said smiling at him. "Good timing, that's all." He said charmingly. "Shh!" Claire pointed. The 2 guards were right next to the metal window. "What the hell? Are you sure the intruder went this way?" One guard asked. "Yes. I'm sure of it!" the other man answered. "Move out. There's no possible way they could've escaped through here. It had to be the other hall. You stay here while I alert the other guards."

"Yes sir."

On the other side of the wall were the 2 intruders out of breath and tired. "Leon! Thank god!" She whispered hugging him. Claire sat down, desperately trying to catch her breath. "That was too close Claire," Leon said hugging her back. "no more of that splitting up bullshit. That's how you get killed."

"Agreed. Did you find anything?"

"Yea. Apparently there are more bases that we're not aware of."

"What? How many?" Claire was shocked. "I read about one in Antarctica. I mean, that's about the most logical place. Who'd take the time to search out there?" Before Claire could respond she heard a gunshot. "Chris?" She wondered. "Come on then." Leon assured her.

They traveled on to see a dead guard shot in the chest. "It has to be!" Claire urged forward. She ran through the next door only to see 2 guards waiting for her. She turned and locked the door so Leon couldn't follow her. "Claire wait!" Leon shouted. He heard shots hitting the metal door. "It's either me, or both of us." She took off running. "Claire…No!"

As she ran, Leon was desperately trying to break the door down. "Shit!" He said filled with rage. "Claire! Claire!" He knew the sturdy metal door wasn't going to budge, so he stopped.

The 2 guards were chasing and taking shots at her. Luckily, she was too fast for them. Claire was running down a long hall and heard a chopper outside. The mini-gun started spinning and opened fire. It took out the 2 guards and nearly hit her. She lept out of the way to the hallway on her left. She got up quickly and darted toward the end of the hall. The hall behind her was in ruin with glass everywhere. 'If this door is locked…' Fortunately, the door wasn't locked. The door flew open and Claire tumbled down the 5 stairs. The chopper lost sight of her and fled. Before she could look around, the sound of guns cocking filled the dark, cool air.

"No! Claire! Claire…" Leon could hear all the commotion and gunshots. He didn't know what to think. He sat in misery and lowered his head in shame. Footsteps were coming closer outside the door, so instinctively, Leon took cover.

The man outside unlocked the metal door and stepped in slowly. He led the way with his gun but looked differently from the guards. Leon leaned back and something next to him creaked. The stranger spun around towards his direction. "Who's there? Show yourself!" Leon stood up slowly, with his hands raised. The man came closer to him. "Don't try anything, or I'll shoot." They stepped into the light so they could see each other. "Move! Now that the door is open, I can follow her." Leon shouted. "Her who?"

"Claire. Step aside."

"Claire? She's here? Who the hell are you and how do you know her?" The stranger commanded. "I'm Leon. We met in Raccoon City. She was looking for her brother. Now let me by!" Leon demanded. Before Leon could pass, the man already took off.

Claire put her hands up to surrender but a propane tank caught her eye. 'That'll do nicely.' She thought. Claire slowly dropped her gun as if to surrender but then caught her gun before it hit the ground and shot the propane tank. The big group of guards were fried instantly. While she was getting up she heard footsteps on the stairs. She raised her gun and met her captor's face. He raised his gun and they glared into each others eyes. "Don't move." He commanded. Claire's gun was empty. The helicopter that was chasing her landed on the rooftop to the building next to them. He took her gun and threw it. "Get up." He cuffed her and led her up the stairs to the chopper.

Leon could here the sound of the chopper. 'That must be Claire!' both men thought. They stood at the explosion and saw a man forcing Claire onto a chopper. They were too late. Leon saw the other man take off and followed behind him. 'What was she doing here? How did she find out about all of this? That guy said Raccoon City. Claire must have gone searching for me and got caught in all of this. How could she have been so reckless? No… how could I have been so reckless? I'm her big brother. She's all that's left as a Redfield.' Chris arrived on the rooftop, staring at the sky trying to collect all of his thoughts. He heard footsteps and didn't even bother turning around.

"Who are you and how do you know Claire?" Leon repeated Chris's question. "I'm Chris, Claire's older brother."

"You're…no way! She locked the door so I couldn't follow her." Leon explained. "Sounds like her. Always putting others before her."

"Believe me; I'd trade spots with her in a heartbeat." Leon said turning away. Chris found himself wondering how close they actually are. "She was in Raccoon looking for me right?"

"Yea. That's the first thing she told me after her name."

"Okay, so you guys escaped together, so how did you end up here?" Chris asked. "We got word that you were here. She said she was going by herself because it only concerned her but I told her I was going with her."

"Thanks for going with her." Leon shook his head. "You'll have to tell me the whole story and I'll tell you mine but first we need to get out of this hellhole. I'll call my pilot." Chris pulled out his radio, "Barry come in over."

"This is Barry, loud and clear over."

"Come by the rooftop and pick us up."

"Us?'

"Yea, someone who knows Claire."

"Roger that, over." Barry cut off. The pilot spotted them and set her down. The wind was blowing ferociously without mercy. They boarded the chopper and sat down. "What now Chris?" Barry asked. "Back to the base." Chris answered. The passengers looked out the windows into the moonlight desperately thinking about how they are going to find Claire.

Okay so first chapter is up. Tell me what you think.
