Disclaimer: I do not own Resident Evil

Claire saw a little girl running around in the mayor's art room. The girl quickly darted into another room. Claire followed her only to find it was dark. She turned on the light and saw the girl sitting down in a corner. The girl got up and attempted to run past her.

Claire quickly grabbed her and yelled, "I'M GOING TO EAT YOU!"

The girl cried and struggled harder to get away from her. Claire frowned.

"Geez, I'm kidding!" Claire exclaimed, "What's a girl gotta do to get a laugh around here?"

The girl calmed down, but still looked terrified at the sight of Claire.

"It's okay sweetie, come here," Claire attempted to assure her. The girl was reluctant, so Claire growled, "come here!"

The girl whimpered and latched onto Claire. Claire's radio beeped, so she answered it.

"Leon, come in," she said, "I found the girl."

"Excellent," Leon said, "I'll meet you in the sewer."

"Over and out," Claire said as she clicked the off button.

The girl let go of her and asked, "Who was that?"

"Oh, that's just Leon," Claire answered, "he's a pedophile: you'll be staying with him."

The girl's eyes got big and Claire leaned in on her, "now Sherry-"

"HOW'D YOU KNOW MY NAME!" Sherry exclaimed.

Claire's eyes got big as well, "um, you told me, didn't you?"

"NO!" Sherry answered in a panic. Claire rubbed the back of her neck.

"So, um...what's your name?" Claire asked.

Sherry began to look very annoyed, and answered, "Sherry."

"Sherry huh?" Claire asked as Sherry rolled her eyes, "what a pretty name for a little girl. So Sherry, where are your parents?"

"They work at the Umbrella Chemical plant," Sherry answered.

"The Chemical plant?" Claire asked, "then what are you doing here?"

"Well," she answered, "my mom called me and said it was too dangerous to stay at home."

*FLASHBACK*

A large group of kids gathered in a small, two-story home. Loud music and hollers filled the air. The phone rang, and Sherry quickly answered it.

"Dis is da Birkin house, dawg," she answered in a very ghetto accent.

"Sherry?" her mom asked on the other line.

Sherry quickly cleared her voice and signaled the other kids to keep it down.

"Oh, hi mom," she said, trying to act very casual, "why are you calling?"

"I'm calling because it's not safe for you to be at home."

"What do you mean?" Sherry asked, being very confused.

"Well, there's these creatures going around terrorizing Raccoon City."

"Hold on," Sherry said as she put the phone down, "HEY! DON'T LET RICKY AND HIS BUDS OUT OF THE HOUSE!"

Sherry brought the phone back up to her ear, "don't worry mom, it's been taken care of."

"Huh?" her mom asked, "no, I mean real creatures. Like, zombies."

"Zombies? Are you sure they're not just kids who are high or-" Sherry stared at her friends, who were drinking heavily, "drunk?"

"No sweetie," her mom assured, "they're going around eating people. I need you to walk down to the police station where it's safe."

"Oh yeah," Sherry said, very sarcastically, "let me leave my home and walk all the way across town, which is filled with evil monsters, by myself, unarmed, and get to the police station. Yeah, great idea mom, you're so smart!"

"Thanks," her mom said, not catching onto her sarcasm, "I know." Her mom hung up.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Claire stared at Sherry as she had listened to her story. She didn't know what to say.

"Um, okay sweetie," Claire finally said, "now, let's try to get out of here."

"No!" Sherry yelled in protest.

"What's the matter?" Claire asked, "are you stupid?"

Sherry shook her head, "it's not that. My dad is chasing me. He saw my report card earlier, and I got an F in science."

"Ohh, I'll bet he's pissed!" Claire said as her eyes grew.

Then, they heard somebody call out Sherry's name.

"Oh shit! It's him!" Sherry yelled as she ran out.

"Wait, Sherry!" Claire called after her.

A/N: As you can already tell, these chapters will probably not be in order. However, I will try to include all introductions from the main RE games. Btw, Leon's not actually a pedo—Claire's just messing with her. Feel free to review.
