To Overcome is Human: Chapter 24

As the citizens of Musutafu try to piece their lives back together after the war, the heroes of class 2-A find themselves facing a new threat. A strange virus is sweeping through the city, leaving its victims little more than mindless, violent husks of their former selves. Meanwhile, Chris Redfield and his team, on the trail of arms dealer Giuseppe Montanari, arrive in Japan just in time to witness the virus outbreak. Now they're stuck in a race against time to find a cure for the virus before Musutafu is overrun, and to stop Montanari before it's too late.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Collateral Damage

While Kaminari battles dark memories that are better left in the past, Todoroki prepares to help contain the infected, risking his own loss of control.

whumpril 29

prompt is "i'm not giving up on you"! I could write so much more of this. I will at some point probably but I need to stop or else i'll never finish :(

word count: 1180 tw/cw: mentioned death, mentioned war, mentioned illness context: Ronald was the second oldest of 6. He has not seen his siblings since his father died in 1910, but that doesn't mean one of them hasn't been looking. Shortly after Ronald's death, his baby sister finds out where he's been all these years. Version of my day 13 / alt 11 prompt where Ronald is alive!

--

“Ronald Wilkes?” He looks up. There's a woman standing to the side of his desk. Her voice is shaking. Around his age, maybe younger. Hair a mosaic of brown and gray.
