"The human mind is truly the scariest thing of all."
I was still hiding.
Waiting.
I radioded a long time ago to my base, letting them now, that I was at the place.
My eyes were wide opened, with my sniper gun in my hands, ready to kill anything.
I was playing with my butterfly knife, closing it and opening. It was holographic colour, Foxy gave it to me at my 22 birthdays. My eyes landed on it and I saw my own reflection. Frowning, I looked away.
At the time I heard helicopter in the distance, I immediately stood up, putting it back to my holster.
Still with sniper rifle in my small hands I went to shining sun. It wasn't even two seconds, when I saw one of J'avos on other roofs, across me.
It was about four hundred metres. I pulled my scope to left eye, closed the right one. My shoulders where straightened, left foot little bit in front, I stopped breathing.
I aimed straight at it's head and shot it. After it realized, that nobody said to me, that I am supposed to kill it.
..Hey, capitan isn't here, nobody will get to know about it. Calm down..
I heard footsteps, and saw one of the J'avos was about to shoot the helicopter down. My eyes went wide and I quietly swore under my breath.
..No time for shooting. Do something, now!..
The only thing that really I thought was to use sniper language. I prayed to God, that there would be at least one that knew it.
I used my hands and throw my sniper to my backs, quickly as possible making a sniper gun with my hands, than pointing at J'avos and then duckling down and up. I did that for two times.
I saw one of the men watching my every move, then he shouted something. The lights of chopper flashed, helicopter flew back to air and I started to run under it.
I was guiding it to other roof, to place where I was able to put infected down.
But roof ended and I was having to decided where will I go.
I bit my lip and pulled out my knife.
I looked at the power line. It was like twelve meters under me, and six above.
I didn't waiting for anything, I jumped down. Knife was between my teeth, I grabbed line and pull myself up. Then I was crowling like cat to one of the towers.
I saw helicopter shooting at men, that could shot me down.
..Thanks guys..
Then I cutted the rope and slide down to land. I rushed across street, I put down J'avos and climbed leader.
The chopper landed and I was standing, away from it, waiting. They jumped out of it, there where 7 mens. I took a deep breath and make my way to them.
One of them walked closer to me.
"I'm Chris Redfield, we're Alpha team from BSAA."
I didn't answered.
"Do you... Heard me?"
He said confuses.
"Yes I did sir. But you didn't asked so I didn't say anything sir."
"O-Okay, than what's your name?"
"My name is Luna Skywalker, I am proud to be in S.T.R.T., special tactical rescue teams. I am soldier from Omega team, lead by capitan Connor. I am not going to let you down, and I will listen to you every time when you will command me, and I will answer every time you will ask, because that is what I was thought and I do it every time. It's my pleasure to meet you."
I hold my hand and he shook it.
"My pleasure too. Thanks about warning, we didn't saw him at all. Now we will move."
He went past me and I didn't wait, pulled out my sniper rifle and follow him. One of mens catch up to me.
"Hey, I am Piers Nivans. I just... Thanks for that, you are having pretty good sniper language. We would be probably dead. But we aren't thanks to you. Like, really, thanks." He smiled sheepishly, and rubbed back of his neck.
"It's my pleasure to work with Alpha team, sir." I said shortly and followed Mr. Redfield to one of the buildings.
I didn't really think about what I said. I am just doing the things I would do at home. At base. I took a deep breath and bit my lip. I heard them whispering.
..Wow, how secret...
We went on fire escape stairs and put down some J'avos. I didn't say anything. There isn't anything to say.
I saw Mr. Nivans talking to Capitan Redfield. I watched one group of J'avos, that were heading to park. The window was still covered with glass, it was only cracked.
"But Chris, we will be more effective, if we will go together!"
"I know Piers. But we can make it faster."
"We will separate." I said with my sweet, girly, innocent tone. My tone.
"No way in hell we will do that."
"I'm really really sorry, I didn't mean to say that I just..." I took a shaky breath and put my head down.
My hands where shaking like I just saw a ghost.
"It's fine. Don't apologize, you are not with S.T.R.T. just... Don't worry about anything ok? It's all fine. Nothing to worry about. We won't say it to anybody."
I was terrified. Like really. I was scared what my capitan is going to say, when he will realized, that I wasn't acting like I was supposed to. I don't want to loose my job.
I slowly nodded, but didn't say anything.
..Be careful with your tongue you stupid kid. You are nobody, they are better than you. You should not even bother them. Just call somebody, just go ahead and FUCKING say that you can't do it. Call Capitan Connor and say to him that you are sorry and you are not ready still! What are you even thinking! You are stupid rookie! You don't even know anything!!! I HATE MYSELF! FUCKING STUPID BITCH!!!..
I was just about to thank them, when a bullets hit just the centimeter beside my head.
"COVER!"
I yelled and jump behind one of chairs.
Bullets.
A lot of them.
They are safe.
..Yeah, they are safe. Nothing to worry about. Just kill them and continue...
I pulled scope to my left eye, closed the right one. One of men started taking them down, I did the same, there were about twenty of them. The one that shot with me was Mr. Nivans, he was shooting extremely fast and never missed, same as me.
When they were all killed, I was still listening and sitting behind big wooden chair, that were decorated with fire marks.
I took a breath. I saw one sniper, he was covered pretty good for the thing that he was mutant..
..Too good..
I didn't even noticed him. But saw, as he was pointing his sniper rifle barrel at one of my teammates.
I didn't think much, I just kicked that Alpha member guy in his back and he fell on the floor. Then a bullet pierces the wall behind him and I just took him out.
"What the fuck?!"
That men seem to be extremely pissed off. On me. Shit.
My hands were protectively in front of my chest, as he yelled. My eyes were big as I was scared, what would he do.
..If I would be at home base, they would thanks, these people are so different! Of course I helped, he would die! And my job here is to FUCKING safe their asses!..
I gulped.
"I- he would kill you and..."
"Marco! She saved your stupid ass, because you didn't pay attention! You should thank her, not shout at her! She saved your life!!!"
Mr. Nivans shouted angrily. That Marco guy looked at wall behind him and noticed bullet in it.
"Shit... Sorry, thanks."
He said, still looking at wall, I guess from embarrassment.
"It's fine."
I stood up, heading to doors.
"You are not from my base to understand, what happened last time..."
I whisper-mumbled. I kicked the door open, too lazy to just opened them normally.
"Base to Skywalker! Base to Skywalker! Do you read?"
"Yes." I said shortly.
..Now be extremely careful Luna, you don't won't to cause yourself or Omega team any problems..
"Ok! We will send there Omega, just in case, something happened, but that doesn't change your mission Skywalker!!! You are still putting your life to save anybody from Alpha, and you don't want to know what would happened if you don't! No mistakes!"
"Roger that!" I said clearly.
"We will contact Redfield. Now get to work!"
"Yes sir."
The line went off and I gulped.
What if they die...
But before I even think about what would happened next I heard Mr. Redfield.
"Clearly and loudly."
"She is doing well."
"What?! What do you think by that stupid Connor! How can you say that!!!" He suddenly shouted, angrily. My eyes went wide and I fastly turned on my heel.
"If you wouldn't mind sir, I don't think it's the best thing to argue with Capitan Connor... It can couse a lot of problems and..."
"I'll argue! He can't fucking say that you can't handle it!!! THAT'S TOTAL BULLSHIT!!!! WHY ARE YOU SCARED ABOUT WHAT WOULD HE SAY!!! HE DOESN'T CARE, HE IS JUST GIVING ORDERS!!! HE ISN'T GOOD CAPITAN AT ALL!!!!! YOU ARE GIRL LUNA, I THOUGHT THAT YOU ARE NOT BLIND!!!" He yelled.
I didn't think at all. I just say the things, all of them.
The ones I was hiding for long time.
Long enough.
