This time, it can be different.

It has to.

September 30, 1998… It's a day I'll never forget. The cop inside me died that day. And that night, Raccoon City was wiped out. Thanks to the bioweapons created by Umbrella. Somehow, I made it out. But too many others...weren't so lucky. I was "asked" later to join a top-secret government program. Not that I had a choice. The training, the punishing missions nearly killed me. But at least they kept my mind off everything. If I could just forget what happened that night, the pain—even for a second. This time, it can be different. It has to.

Vitals

Name: Sherry Birkin Age: 39 DOB: September 6th, 1986 Hometown: Raccoon City, Arklay County. Blood type: B+ Affiliations: Division of Security Operations (DSO) H: 165cm (5'5") W: 47kg (104 lbs) Known medical conditions: Eczema caused by G-virus, Enhanced healing factor because of G-virus.

Bio under the cut

Sherry was born to Annette and William Birkin in 1986 amidst Williams initial research on the G-virus. Her childhood was somewhat mundane until 1991, when the Birkins were relocated to NEST in Raccoon City to give William a space to work exclusively on his pet project. From then on, she was essentially neglected in favor of the virus research.

She was enrolled in public school there, and was ferried back and forth between the two places by umbrella operatives in relative secrecy. She barely saw her parents for 6 years, and despite this, she didn't seem to grow resentful of them, under the impression that they were doing a lot of important work to help save humanity. She was completely kept in the dark about the viruses true nature, and it stayed that way until well into her adulthood.

[RE2]

The Raccoon City incident saw her entire life flipped on its head. She escaped thanks to Claire and Leons actions, and from that point on saw them as close to her as family. Because of Leon, she was given a the chance to live in relative stability, even though that dream would be immediately dashed as well.

Sherry was in and out of the hospital constantly after being infected with G and then administered the vaccine. Being placed in government custody to keep her safe from the likes of Albert Wesker, she eventually came into the care of National Security Advisor; Derek C. Simmons. Even then, she found herself with a legal guardian who was almost completely hands-off. He never allowed her to interface with anyone outside of his main circle except for one person- Claire Redfield- and only because Sherry begged and pleaded him to allow her in. Claires influence seemed to be the one thing that kept the poor, neglected childs eyes to the heavens.

That was, until Derek started using her blood samples in experiments to create his own virus. Again, Sherry was unaware of the nature of why she was being constantly poked and tested, but knew that she was exhausted of the whole situation.

It was then that she finally started seeking freedom from the hell that she was more or less forced into.

In 2009, after the news of Albert Weskers death, Sherry was finally offered that freedom, so long as she cooperated with Simmons and joined the DSO as an operative. The threat of Bioterrorism had become so commonplace at that point, that it was a no-brainer in her eyes. She gladly accepted that offer, and served dutifully under that banner- One she still serves to this day.

[RE6] (THIS WILL BE UPDATED WHEN THE SHERRY/JAKE CHAPTER OF THE TTRPG REWRITE CONCLUDES)

In December of 2012, she was tasked with tracking down one jake Mueller, as his blood apparently contained Antibodies to a recently identified virus that was quickly threatening to impact the world. These orders were given to her by Simmons directly, or so she believed- It was actually Carla Radames behind a facade of Dereks face and voice giving the orders, ones that lead her and Jake directly into a trap set by the vengeance-seeking woman, which saw them being whisked from Edonia to Lanshiang, China, where they spent 6 months being experimented on. Carla used their blood to create an even more enhanced strain of the C-virus, which she planned to use against Derek.

Jake and Sherry managed to escape from the Mansion lab with considerable effort, eventually making their way to Koocheng, where they were once again captured and taken to the undersea oil rig, which housed a gigantic bioweapon known as 'Haos', which Chris Redfield and his partner Piers Nivans stayed behind to fight.

They managed to escape together, despite the formidable Ustanak blocking their way.

The events of Lanshiang saw her and Jake Mueller becoming considerably close. She harbors deep feelings for him, and so far has gone out of her way to cultivate that relationship.

The last decade or so has been considerably quiet for her, thankfully. Adjusting to life in this newfound freedom has been difficult, but she's grateful for those she keeps close to her chest. She still serves the DSO, living in DC in close proximity to work and to be close to Leon specifically- The father figure she never got growing up.

It's been a long road, but she's optimistic about the future.

September 30th, 1998. It's a day I'll never forget.

The cop inside me died that day. And that night, Raccoon City was wiped out. Thanks to the bioweapons created by Umbrella. Somehow, I made it out. But too many others...weren't so lucky.

I was 'asked' later to join a top-secret government program. Not that I had a choice. The training, the punishing missions nearly killed me. But at least they kept my mind off everything.

If I could just forget what happened that night, the pain-even for a second. This time, it can be different. It has to 🔥🔥🔥

"Breakout"

plaga Leon x OC, hurt/comfort/some body horror

Luis' parasite removal machine had worked. Leon, Ashley and Catherine escaped the hellish island, Ashley returned to her family safe and sound, and Catherine went back to her home--back to her job at the hospital.

A few months later, Catherine dressed in a green buttoned dress shirt and faded jeans, was now in the backseat of her uncle's car, Leon lying in her lap, still wearing a green hospital shirt and loose pants breathing heavily. Uncle Lindsey had given him a blanket and old hoodie to try and conceal his appearance. A woman with reddish hair and wearing a light blue lab uniform sat in the passenger seat in the front, occasionally looking back to give Catherine a reassuring smile or nod.

The car bounced as Lindsey drove down the road, making what belongings they all could pack in the trunk move about making loud thumping noises.

Leon had been infected again, a last laugh from Saddler during their final showdown. By the time it was discovered, the egg hatched and grew to a full adult. Sent to a medical facility, any methods of treatment ended in failure. Somehow, Leon retained his mind and will of his own.

Catherine had started receiving a series of emails from the woman in front -- Morgan Collins was her name. It wasn't long before she revealed the awful truth that Leon was a host once more and that he would be turned into a new bioweapon. Morgan, through careful planning, managed to sneak him out. Leon had been given sedatives normally meant for animals, leaving him in a sluggish state.

Lindsey pulled into a gas station. "Sorry, gotta gas up. There's a motel 'bout ten more miles from here. Hopefully can rest there, eh?"

"That's fine," Catherine replied quietly, "Uncle...thank you for...you know..."

He smiled. "Never in a million years I'd leave my niece in the cold, you know that." He flicked something away from his hair, dyed a dark green. His expression turned serious, "Cathy, I'm not afraid to go back to jail..."

Dusting off his navy blue coat, he turned and walked towards the mini-mart.

Morgan looked back, shocked. "Did he really just say that?"

Leon stirred, pale face and red eyes looking up at Catherine. He appeared to be aware of the conversation.

Catherine held his hand. "Yeah. Long story short, he beat up my father--and also my parents' dealer, with a baseball bat. But he did it to protect me..."

Morgan shook her head. She reached for her bottle of water in the drink holder to take a sip. She shrugged, "We all have a story to tell I guess. Who knew this would be the second time I'm running from my workplace again?"

"Oh...?"

Morgan put the bottle down. "*sigh* I told your buddy there before but...I worked for Umbrella. Me and my team...we thought were gonna make a difference creating new medicine. Improve the quality of life for our patients, yea?" She balled her hand into a fist, "That goddamned virus...the higher-ups played us all for a bunch of fools..." She then rested her head in her hands, "I just wanted to see my dad get the treatment he needed..."

Catherine reached over to place a hand on Morgan's shoulder briefly. "I appreciate your help..."

She looked down to see Leon, sound asleep and breathing normally, the veins in his skin not as prominent as before. She brushed some of his hair aside to gently kiss his forehead.

Lindsey returned with a few bags of food and drink, filled the tank of gas, and pulled the car out, back on the road, driving off into the starry night.
