As a new STRATCOM agent, you'd been partnered up with a more experienced agent. You were worried, especially when you learned that the Leon Kennedy would be your partner, the same man who saved the President's daughter on his own.

Luckily, Leon was actually pretty friendly, in his own way. He tended to be quite stoic, and he had a very dry sense of humour, but once you got to know him better, you realized that the agent cared deeply about others and just wanted to protect them.

You liked him a lot. Maybe too much, at times. The two of you had grown closer over the months, becoming great partners and maybe even friends. You hid your attraction to Leon because of this; you didn't want to make him uncomfortable.

That was a bit hard when training was involved, though. You both often sparred to keep your skills up and become more synchronized in your fighting. This is what you were doing now, kicking and punching while dodging each other's attacks.
