What's The Call?


"So what's the call?" Jake asked when Leon rejoined them later. Leon was silent a moment and then explained in detail what Ada had told him.

"So we need to disappear or what?" Jake replied.

"We could die." Sherry whispered.

"No that is the one thing you cannot do." Jake said looking at her.

"I did not mean literally," snapped Sherry.

There was an uncomfortable silence. "Can you die?" Leon asked finally. "I mean, there's a reason they're calling it the "Immortality Virus."

Sherry sat there dumbfounded, she glanced at Jake. He was going to have the same problem as her. He refused to discuss it. "I don't know...I've never thought about it...I mean I got older..."

Jake looked at her. She was a tiny petite blonde, who at 27 could pass for a teenager. "I don't know," he said. "You getting older...that's iffy."

"How do we deal with this?"

"There is going to be a large amount of money at Wesker's disposal so he can find you," Leon said finally. "Higher ups are interested... You'll have to disappear."

Claire responded. "We can forge new ID's."

"No," said Jake. "Out of the system, completely. It's the only way something like this will work. They can always match a face, and DNA doesn't lie."

Sherry shot him a look. "You'll need some sort of ID to get out of the country." Claire said again.

"What," he said shrugging his shoulders. "It doesn't."

"It's late," Claire said. "Let's get some sleep. We'll talk about it in the morning."

This time no one made a comment when Jake packed up his belongings and put them in Sherry's room. Claire moved to the other room and Leon was too preoccupied to say a word about it.

"Coffee?" He said to Claire absently checking his watch.

"Love to." She responded.
