Thinking about my family I walked towards the gates of the orphanage,the gate was huge made up of metal covered in black colour.
As I opened the gates I got a complete view of the whole orphanage, seeing the orphanage my first thought was that 'it's huge', it was four story building white in colour and it also has a little garden.
As I entered the orphanage with a bag on my back , walking slowly towards the door I thought how my life will take turn, after reaching near the door slowly and steadily I opened the door of orphanage, after opening it I saw the hall of the orphanage where a few kids playing with toys, when I entered they all started to look at me.
As for me I don't want to waste my time so I directly introduced myself in a cold tone saying: Hello everyone I am Leon Scott kennedy and I am your new roommate,bye.
Saying this I started to walk towards the dorms in order to find my bed as fast as possible leaving as fast as I could but alas,as much as I want to finish all of these introductions and interactions as fast as I could to get some rest, as I wanted to be left alone for some time.
But fate doesn't want me to be left alone a big kid around 14-15 year of age walked towards me and said in a very rude behaviour: huhhh.... Where do you think you are going.
Seeing this behaviour I only thought of one thing in my mind: Another fool, he reminded me of max wait was it max I don't remember that school bully's name.
Seeing no reply from me he thought I was scared and tried to taunt me again but before he could say anything he was interrupted by a girl around my age interrupted him and said: Stop it John, he is our new roommate here so don't scare him.
Seeing a new voice I looked at her even though from her voice she looked scared but she had shown her courage by standing against him she had short platinum blonde hair, grey eyes,with an oval faced shape.(Did you guys get it? Whose she resembles).
Seeing that face my mouth hung open after all it's not everyday you meet a duplicate of one of the main characters of the resident evil story after all, even though I don't remember the plot I remember some main characters.
If you guys are asking me how I know that it's not real but a duplicate, it's because the main characters about whom I was talking about might have not even born.
She looks exactly like Grace from resident evil 9(requiem).
(Note: Don't worry she will only become Leon's first love intrest but will not stay with him, she will only stay in his early days for a few moments, so don't worry about affecting the story she will leave the story soon, it's just that I have other plans when reaching re9.)
As for asking how I knew that the young girl is her duplicate because she looks exactly like emily in re9 who's Grace's clone.
Thinking of this I asked myself, according to timeline she appeared before Grace who will appear decades later so...is she a duplicate or is Grace her duplicate ?
Letting this all aside before anyone notices I immediately return to my calm and cold personality.
As for the bully John who had brown hair stared at her then at me for a moment, after which he backed away leaving me alone with her.It looks like her sudden courage also shocked him.
Seeing John back away she signed a relief then looked at me and asked in a calm voice: Are you okay, did he do anything to you ?
Hearing this I let a small smirk and said in my calm cold voice: never better.
The girl let out another sign hearing this and extended her hand towards me for a handshake shake and said in a deliberate voice: Hi I-I am...Julia, Julia Pratt what about you.
Seeing her enthusiasm and introvert personality I also extended my arm and handshake with her then said: Leon, Leon Scott kennedy.
She again enthusiastically replied:Leon, huh what a good name let's become friends.
Hearing this I asked in confusion: friend with me but didn't you have friends... I think you should go play with them.
Hearing my reply her face turned pale and tears started to form in her eyes, I caught this sight and immediately replied to her: ok friends.. we are friends, ok happy please don't cry.
Hearing this her reaction immediately takes 180 degree u-turn and she replied to me again in her energetic but hesitant tone: really yayyyy ,you are my first friend I am so happy.
This got me more confused so I asked: what do you mean by your first friend didn't you have friends here before me ?
She immediately calmed down hearing this and replied in a sad tone: It's just that... everyone doesn't play with me they say that I am cursed and will hurt them all if I get near them so they all avoid me.
Saying these words she looked at me and asked: Will you..will you also leave me after hearing this ?
My heart immediately melted hearing this but I still had a calm cold face: huh...leave?...why would I...
This caught her off guard and she asked:Huh...what ? You will really not leave me like others?
Hearing this I looked at her placing my hands on her shoulder and said in a calm tone: I said why should I, I am your friend now and you are also my friend and I don't abandon my people, that's not my way.
Hearing this she let a sign and caught my hand and pulled me with herself as she ran through door to door, where she introduced me to everyone she had known including teachers and caretakers, she also helped me find my dorm and my new bed where I will sleep.
She also helped me to introduce myself to the caretakers and teachers, it looks like the orphanage also had private tutors to teach the students like a homeschool.
After eating dinner with other kids, she left me with my bed, I let a long sign and fell asleep on my bed while thinking about the day and the recent incident.
While in dream I am once again experienced the nightmares that haunt me from that night but this time I saw my father in the place of my mother due to this I again got woken up from my sleep
--Next day--
Next morning when I woke up from my bed with incomplete sleep I stretched myself a little then thought for a moment if I wanted to protect those dear to me I have to become stronger but on the other hand I am reluctant to use system to get stronger after all the words of the system's price still Lingering in my mind along with those nightmares.
After thinking about a few moments I let out a sign and open my drawer and take out an photo album book, opening it I saw the images of my family my mother, father,grandpa and grandma.
Letting out a sign I recalled a memory with my parents during a campfire.
--Flashback--
5 years ago when Leon was in a campfire with his parents.
Leon who was making a drawing suddenly saw a spark of fire landed on his drawing and let out a cry: Noo my drawing got caught in a fire..noooo
Hearing my cry my parents arrived rushing towards me and asked in a worried tone: Leon what happened sweetheart, are you alright why are you crying.
Seeing them I immediately replied to my mother who was holding me while my father checking around:Mom look I was drawing near the campfire but this a spark of fire took my drawing and turned it into ashes.
Hearing this my parents let out a sign of relief and replied:ohh honey it's just a drawing why are you crying you can make an another one.
I replied urgently: No I-I was just drawing our family together it takes me two hours to draw this but this evil flames destroyed it.
Hearing this my mother replied to me: Sweetheart you cannot judge things with good and evil by their nature or it's causes or it's price, things doesn't exist like that, what matters is how you used it that matters.
--Present--
Remembering those i muttered to myself: I remembered my mother's teachings should I use them like that, used them for good or something.
Thinking more might be waste of time saying this I asked the system: system are you there ?
[--Ding--]
[--Yes host I am here--]
Hearing this I replied in a calm voice: Good show me the template status and task and give me my reward for killing the Intruder.
