Wesker's daughter

Upon meeting Ada, Aconite tilted her head at her story. "So, rather than focusing on your safety as your boyfriend would want, you're focused on your boyfriend? Don't know whether that's commendable, brave, or stupid." Aconite said, receiving a smile. 

"I'm going for brave Ms. Wesker," Ada smiled as they moved a truck to reveal a door and opened it. Coming across a cell with a man inside Aconite wondered who put him there, perhaps Anna?

"Ben, huh? Anna musta booked you, cause I sure didn't." Aconite mentioned to Leon as Ada began questioning Ben.

"Anna?" Leon asked, and she shrugged from her place beside him against the wall.

"She was the official bookkeeper. Oi Ben, some things can get to you in there, believe me." Aconite smirked, her red eye glowing, as Ada ran off.

'What do you think is in the kennels, save for the dogs." Leon asked her as they started heading that way.

"They won't be dogs anymore, try Cerberus, k9s infected with the T-virus." Aconite smirked after Ada got separated from them.

"Damn, wait, what was that?!" Leon demanded as they heard Ben's scream. Racing back to the holding cells, they found Ben outside his cell in pain on the floor.

After asking him what happened, Aconite hissed upon learning Cheif Irons was part of the outbreak. She knew something was up with him.

Watching Ben die from whatever was within him, Aconite gasped; she'd never seen anything like that before. 

'The virus is mutating like I thought it could with fresh DNA, or is this another virus altogether?' She thought as she heard Leon contact Claire through a radio. 

Seeing the thing that escaped Ben's body mutate and grow further, Aconite was disgusted, she could have been one of these monsters if not for her magic, and she knew it.

She and her father found out she could never cast spells when they found her a tutor and theorized her magic had internalized and kept her virus from killing or mutating her further than it had.

"You okay, Aconite?" Leon asked, seeing her stare blankly at the creature even after he managed to kill it. Seeming to snap out of her trance, she nodded.

"Y...yes, I just thought that I could have become a monster like that," Aconite said as she hugged herself and backed away from Leon when he reached to touch her, "Make no mistake, Leon, I am a monster, just not like that." 

She said as she took a deep breath, he needed to know so he could be ready if she had to fight, and raised her hand before allowing it to shift into several tendrils of black and red flesh.

She expected Leon to jerk away, to call her a monster, but instead, he reached out again and allowed one of her tendrils to coil around his and with an almost child-like wonder.

"It's warm," he whispered with a fascination that surprised her.

"Y...yeah, of course, it is!" she exclaimed as she jerked away from him and looked at him, "You...you're not afraid?"

"Are you going to kill or eat me?" Leon asked, and she blushed and stammered, "No! Of course not! But...why aren't you afraid, Leon? Anyone else would scream their heads off."

"Because I trust you, and while I get the feeling you haven't told me everything you know, I trust that you'll tell me if I need to know." Leon smiled, causing her eyes to widen in shock and blush as her heart throbbed, a new sensation to her. 

"Th...thank you, Leon, for trusting me, it means a lot," Aconite mumbled, turning her hand back before she turned away from him, saying, "but don't get any ideas, pretty boy!"

Leon stared at her back and smiled. 'Cute, it's like she doesn't know how to deal with this. Kinda like a tsundere?' he thought before they started looking for Ada again.

When Aconite saw Leon take a shot for Ada and said woman take off, Aconite felt her virus writhe beneath her skin in anger.

"Damn that woman for leaving Leon like this! It's a damn sewer!" she growled to herself as she sat Leon up against the wall. 

'Wait, why do I care what happens to this guy? He's just a comrade?' she wondered as she gently shook Leon. "Leon, Leon, wake up, it's not safe here." 

"Mn...huh? Aconite? Wh..where's Ada? I remember pushing her out of the way of that crazy woman's bullet." Leon groaned as he looked at her.

"She took off after that woman leaving you here; we should get moving, think you can move?" 'What happened to Anette anyway? I'm sure that was her, and if it was, what of William and Sherry?' Aconite wondered as Leon shifted his shoulder.

"Stings, but okay," Leon said as he tried to stand, causing a spurt of blood to come from the wound.

"Wait," Aconite said as she pushed him to sit back down. At the same time, her hand transformed into tendrils again, "I'm going to remove the bullet and use the mucus that I can secrete to seal the wound, the mucus can harden into a resin that will assist in healing, and it'll prevent infection." Aconite explained, and Leon nodded, the last thing he needed at the moment was an infection slowing them down.

Quickly removing the bullet with as little pain as possible, Aconite willed the mucus to harden into an amber-colored resin. "There, it may hurt for a bit, but the pain will fade." Aconite said as she stood.

Leon looked at the amber color cap in his shoulder and smiled up at her. 'She didn't have to help me, but she did.' 

"Thanks," Leon said as Aconite helped him up, "let's find Ada, I don't like that she left, but it wouldn't be right just to leave her alone." 

Leon said, and Aconite nodded reluctantly, "Right." 

When they finally caught up to Ada, Aconite had to admit the T-virus infected crocodile was a surprise, but not as much as the information Ada told them.

'So her boy toy is dead? Better not try to hit on Leon!' Aconite hissed in her head only to recoil at her thoughts.

'Why the hell would I care about that? Leon isn't with me, and we don't even know each other!' she ranted in her mind as she followed Leon and Ada through the sewers, rubbing her arm as she stared at Leon's broad back.

'And yet, the thought of Leon and Ada makes my blood boil. What is this? I've never cared about others like this, so why now?' Aconite wondered as she watched Leon care for Ada, going through her psychology knowledge in her head.

'Don't tell me I'm growing feelings for a man during a time of duress?! Why the hell would I be so stupid!' She hissed at herself mentally.

She didn't like the fact they were in an Umbrella lab, and hearing Ada talk to Leon they way she was made, Aconite wanted to hurl before gutting her.

"Aconite, can you stay and look after Ada?' Leon asked, and Aconite nodded reluctantly, she couldn't be irrational right now. "Sure, I'll keep her safe." Aconite said and internally danced at the smile Leon gave her.
