Resident Evil 3: The Rescue At Umbrella


October 1, 1998: Leon grabbed Nemesis’ arm. Then he kicked it in the gut. “Let....go!” Leon gagged. He looked around for something to help him. Suddenly, he spotted a wire. “Take....this!” he yelled, choking. Leon quickly grabbed the wire and threw it on Nemesis. Suddenly, 2000 electricity bolts got sent into Nemesis’ body. It quickly dropped Leon and grabbed the wire. Then it threw the wire away and broke through a door. Leon grabbed his neck, and then stood up. “Now, let’s find a way out.” He pulled out his radio and pressed the talk button. “Jill?” At first, the reception was bad, but a couple of seconds later, Jill replied. “Leon? Are you all right?” “I’ll be okay for now,” he answered. “I’m over in a safe corner while Barry and Sherry are taking care of the green monster,” Jill told him. Suddenly, Leon heard a monster cry in the radio’s background. “Uh oh!” Jill exclaimed. “Gotta go!” Leon put the radio back in his pocket, and then he ran off. RESIDENT EVIL 3: The Rescue at Umbrella Jill pulled out her Sub-Machine gun. “Barry?!” she called out. “How are you doing?” “Not....good!” Barry shouted back. “Hold on!” Jill shouted again. “I’m coming!” Jill jumped out in front of the green monster and began to shoot it. Suddenly, it’s fist swung at Jill, but she had jumped away in time. Barry ran over to her. “You alright?” “Still in one piece,” Jill replied, getting up. “Good,” Barry said, pulling out his Rocket Launcher. He pointed it at the green monster, and then fired. The rocket hit the monster square in the chest, and sent it flying out the window-which shattered into pieces. Once all the pieces hit the ground, Jill ran over to Sherry. “Feeling hurt?” Sherry shook her head. “No, I’m fine,” she replied. “Do you still want to come?” Jill asked the pre-teen. “Yes,” Sherry answered. Jill stood up and looked over at Barry. “Do you want to take her?” Barry looked down at Sherry, who had a can-I-come-with-you look. “I guess, I will,” Barry said. “You guys will take the stairs,” Jill instructed. “I’ll take the elevator shaft. We will rendezvous on floor 70.” “That’s a long way though!” Barry protested. “Just meet me there,” Jill told him. “Now, let’s get going before we meet another creature.” Jill cranked the second elevator door open. Inside the shaft, there were cables holding the second elevator up. She looked around for the elevator. It was at the very top of the building. “Now, let’s see what’s on the next floor,” she said to herself, climbing. Once she reached the next door, she quickly cranked it open and climbed up. She was now in a wide hallway with many doors. Jill went through the first door. Inside, was what looked like an office room. The only problem was, that the room was very messy. There were papers and pens all over the floor, and broken desks and chairs. Jill saw five human corpses on the ground. The first one had it’s stomach torn out, with blood all over it’s body. The second had it’s arms and legs ripped off, and the third had slash marks all over. Jill found a note on the ground beside the fourth corpse. ‘Steve’s Note: June 1st, 1998, 4:24pm: Today, I found an interesting article in the paper. The title was, ‘Another cannibal crime’. The fourth victim of a wave of grisly cannibal crimes was found in Raccoon City early this morning. A couple of people have claimed that they have seen mysterious creatures crawling around Raccoon Forest. The Raccoon Police Department however, is trying to calm everyone down, with no success. June 23, 1998, 8:05am: I know it’s been a long time since I last wrote but, the S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team has disappeared in the Forest near the Spencer Mansion. September 27, 1998, 3:55pm: Yes, it’s been another long time but, many Zombies have been spotted throughout the building and I hear some loud stomps coming towards this room. Uh oh! The door just broke open. Wh-what is this-’ “It looks like this letter wasn’t finished,” Jill said, tucking the note away. The fifth corpse had bite marks all over it. She search the body and found a little piece of paper with some numbers on it. 51947. “What’s this for?” she asked herself, looking at the numbers. “Maybe it’s for a safe code for something.” Jill tucked the little piece of paper away and looked around the room again. She found nothing, so she left the room and went into the second one. Inside, four Zombies were walking around. Jill pulled out her shotgun and killed two of them. Once they had fallen down, the next two came at her. She shot the first one in the waist, and the top part of it’s body came off. The top half of the Zombie’s body crawled towards Jill and grabbed her leg, but she shook it off and kicked it’s head off. Then she killed the last one and searched the room. On one of the desks, she found some shotgun shells and handgun bullets. Then she left the room and went into the third one-which contained two more Zombies. Once they were down, she found a map of floors 2-10. According to the map, there were eight more doors in the hallway she was in. She ran over to the first desk. It was pretty messy, so she cleared all the junk off. Underneath, she found nothing. But once the second desk was cleared, she found more handgun bullets. Since she had found lots of handgun bullets, Jill decided that she would use her handgun. Once it was out and loaded, she checked the third desk, only to find some first-aid sprays. When she declared that she had searched all of the room, she went back out into the hallway. As she came close to the third door, a Licker fell through a vent. Suddenly, it jumped up and slashed her in the arm. Blood started shooting out of the cut. Jill quickly killed the Licker, and then pulled out a first-aid spray. She carefully sprayed the large cut on her arm and within a few minutes, she was feeling better. But she was now down to two first-aid sprays. On the other side of the door, two corpses lay on the ground. Jill searched them and found some more handgun bullets. On one of the desks, she found some blueprints for new office towers, but nothing of interest. She left the room and went through the fourth door. Inside, there was one corpse sitting in a chair. Jill searched him and found a disk labelled ‘Disk A’. “What would I need this for?” Jill questioned herself, examining the disk. Since there was a letter on it, she guessed that there would be a Disk B. “Don’t they have anything on Umbrella?” Jill said again, moving back into the hallway. On the other side of the fifth door, there were three Zombies eating a dead body on the ground. Once Jill got close to them, the first Zombies stood up and came for her. The others did the same. Jill killed the first two, but the third one grabbed her. She quickly shook it off and then shot it in the head. “Now,” Jill said. “Let’s see what you’ve got.” She checked the corpse’s body, only to recover another note. ‘Greg’s Report: September 27, 1998, 7:30am: Today, I overheard a conversation with the boss. They were talking about the Underground Umbrella Lab south of downtown Raccoon City. Then I heard the boss say something about an old S.T.A.R.S. member working for Umbrella. September 28, 1998, 5:00pm: I have found some Umbrella files in one of the cabinets in the conference room. Here’s what they said: UMBRELLA EXPERIMENT CODES: Cerberus: M-03, Hunter: A-B67, Hunter Beta: B-Y23, Hunter Gamma: 6-OP9, Brain Sucker: H-000, Drain Deimos: R-056, Grave Digger: 6-34T, Tyrant: T-002, NEMESIS: T-009. End of Report.’ “An old S.T.A.R.S. member working for Umbrella,” Jill repeated. “Why would they be talking about that?” She quickly tucked the report away and left the room. Suddenly, the door at the end of the hallway cracked a bit. “Uh oh,” Jill said, pulling out her Sub-Machine gun. After a couple of minutes, a creature in a black suit broke through. “You!” Jill shouted, blasting the monster with bullets. But that wasn’t enough to stop this guy. Nemesis just kept on coming closer and closer until it was close enough to pick her up. Jill pointing her gun at Nemesis’ face and began shooting. Suddenly, Nemesis dropped her and grabbed it’s face. Then it ran forward and jumped through the opened elevator door. “I’ll be seeing you later,” Jill said, looking at the elevator shaft. She continued on through the sixth door. Inside, was a large room with three dead corpses sitting on chairs, and one on the ground. As Jill came around the corner, a Licker jumped at her, barely missing her head. “WHOA!!!” she shouted, jumping back. The Licker jumped at her again, but completely missed her. Jill killed the Licker, and then searched the corpses. She recovered some handgun bullets, shotgun shells, and some magnum bullets. Then she left. There was a sign above the next door. “Control Room-2nd floor,” Jill read. Inside, there were ten monitors on the far wall. She ran over to them and watched as the cameras moved this way and that. Suddenly, on one of the monitors, a door broke into pieces, and a monster that Jill had never seen before ran through. It was big and brown, with sharp claws and a round head with a large mouth. “What the-,” Jill said, staring at the creature. She looked down at the computer below her and typed: ‘2nd floor monitor map’. Suddenly, a map appeared on the computer. There were labels in each hallway, which indicated where the cameras were. Jill looked up at the monitor with this new monster. “Camera six,” she said, looking back at the map. The map showed camera six on the other side of the elevator. “Good,” Jill said to herself. “I won’t be meeting that thing anytime soon.” But suddenly, Jill caught a glimpse of another monster on a different camera. This one was similar to the first one, but it’s head and it’s hands were smaller. Jill looked at the label. “Camera two, camera two....,” Jill kept repeating. The map showed camera two in the second hallway from here. “That’s pretty close to here,” Jill said, looking back up at the second monster. “Why do we need to encounter new monsters? We’ve already got two to worry about. Thinking quickly, she pulled out her sub-machine gun, and left Control Room-2nd Floor. She went through the seventh door and encountered more Zombies. Once they were dead, she quickly reloaded her gun and went around the corner of the room. There were no corpses in this room, but there was a motion-less hand surrounded by a puddle of blood on the ground. “Gross,” Jill said, examining the hand. It was pretty gross, but was nowhere near the goryness of the “headless body” back in the police station. She found nothing of interest on the desk or in the drawers, so she left and went through the eighth door in the hallway. There were no monsters inside, so she checked every single area of the room for anything useful. There were some papers on another messy desk, but nothing interesting. Suddenly, she spotted a switch on the wall. Once Jill pushed it, she heard a loud rumble. When she turned around, the wall beside Jill had opened up, revealing a door. She quickly moved through it and found herself in another room with shelves. As she came around the corner of the first shelf, something large broke through a door on the other side of the second shelf. “Crap!!!” Jill shouted, getting behind the first shelf. Suddenly, a huge claw broke through the shelf, barely missing her. She quickly jumped around the opposite corner of the shelf and found herself staring at the new creature. It was one of the ones she saw earlier on the monitors. The monster spun around and jumped at her. Jill ducked and shot the monster. It didn’t take long before the monster broke through the same door Jill came through, and ran away. “What was that?” she asked herself. Jill walked over to the door the monster broke through. It led to some stairs going down. She pulled out her radio. “Barry?” “Yeah?” Barry replied. “I’m going down a flight of stairs on the first floor, where are you guys right now?” “We’re on the third floor,” he answered. “There’s been a change of plan,” Jill announced. “We’ll meet on twenty. Alright?” “Gotcha,” Barry said. “See you then.” Jill put her radio away and then climbed down the stairs. She was now back on the 1st floor, but inside a different hallway. At the end, there was a door. On the other side, there was a room containing a Licker. Jill quickly killed it with her sub-machine gun and then moved towards the end of it. There was a corpse on the ground near the far wall of the room, but there was nothing interesting inside it’s jacket. Jill then left the room and went back up the stairs to the second floor. At the top, another Licker jumped at her, but it dropped dead after a couple of shots with her sub-machine gun. Once she was back out into the hallway, she continued on through the ninth door. Inside was just another office with a couple of corpses. Once again, she went back out into the hallway. But this time, she went through the last door at the end. On the other side of it, there was another hallway with three doors. One of them led back to the security room. Jill checked the second door. A Zombie jumped at her as soon as she came through and grabbed her leg. “Stupid thing!” Jill shouted, kicking the Zombie’s head off-which sent a line of blood fly across the room. Once it landed, she ran over to the table and opened up the briefcase sitting on it. Inside, she found another disk, and some machine gun bullets. Jill searched the disk for a label but no matter how hard she looked, she just couldn’t find one. “If this disk isn’t Disk B,” Jill said, putting the disk away. “Then what do I use this for?” She quickly left the room and went through the last door in the hallway. She was now in another hallway, but this one had many twists and turns in it. As Jill came around the corner, something big jumped at her. This was the first monster she saw on the monitors-the one with the large mouth and claws. It took a swipe at her, but it missed and hit the wall. Jill shot the monster, but it just kept on coming. Suddenly, it swiped her in the leg. “AAAHHH!!!” She screamed, grabbing her leg. Jill fell to the ground, just when the monster jumped up on the ceiling. Then it jumped down, intending to land on her. She quickly rolled over to the side, and the monster crashed through the floor. “Ow!” Jill moaned as she got up. Around the next corner, she spotted a sign. ‘2nd Floor First Aid Room’. “Yes!” Jill exclaimed, running over to the door. Inside, there were many bandages scattered around. She quickly took a small roll and wrapped it around her leg. Once it was pinned together, she left the room and went through the next door. The hallway she was now in had one elevator door at the end of it. Jill pried it open. There were no ladders on this side of the shaft, so she jumped across and grabbed onto the ladder. Then she climbed up to the fourth floor and grabbed the little crack between the door. After a couple of minutes, the door slid open and Jill climbed through. Once she was up, she caught her breath and ran down the hallway. There were three doors around the first corner. She went through the first one. Inside was a small office with two Zombies in the corner. They slowly made their way over to Jill, but she killed them before they could even get close. There was a computer over on the furthest desk. She ran over to it and turned it on. “Please insert Disk A,” Jill read, sticking Disk A in the little slot. “Please insert Disk B.” Jill stood up. “Looks like I have to find Disk B.” She walked over to the door and re-entered the hallway. There was another office on the other side of the second door. Jill looked around the room and spotted another briefcase on a table in a corner. Inside, she found some ammo, and a letter. ‘Steven’s Letter: September 28, 1998, 6:47pm: Zombies are all over the city! It is no longer safe to go outside and into the streets. I just know I’m going to die anyways with all these monsters crawling around! It looks like I’m stuck here. Since I am the owner of “Disk B”, I have hidden it in a loose floorboard inside a cupboard-which you will find in one of the other rooms on this floor. You will also need Disk A to access the computer’s main menu.’ “That sounds like a good hiding place,” Jill said to herself. Once the letter was put away, she ran back out into the hallway and went through the third door. Inside, a Zombie was lurking around the office. Jill pulled out her handgun and killed it. Then she ran over to the first cupboard. Inside, there were floorboards, but none of them were loose. She quickly closed it back up and checked the second one. Nothing. There was only one more cupboard left. Inside, the loose floorboard lay in the corner. “Yes!” Jill exclaimed, but for no reason. She lifted the floorboard up. Nothing. There was no disk there. It was gone. “Hey!” she yelled. “I thought a disk was supposed to be here!” Jill jumped up and slammed the cupboard door closed. Then she stormed out of the room and continued down the hall. Suddenly, the wall beside her broke down, and Nemesis emerged. It looked very angry. It took a big swipe at Jill, but it missed her and smashed through the wall. Jill pulled out her sub-machine gun and pumped Nemesis with lead, but Nemesis just got even more angrier and picked her up by the neck. Jill grabbed it’s arm and tried to twist it, but it didn’t do any damage. Then she started shooting Nemesis in the face, causing it to drop her. Suddenly, it fell through the wall beside her and lay motionless on the ground. “Faker,” she said, looking down at Nemesis. Then she ran back down to the elevator shaft and continued up the ladder. Suddenly, her radio beeped. Jill pulled it out. “Yeah?” “Jill!” Barry’s voice exclaimed. “Don’t worry about searching floors 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9.” “Why not?” Jill asked. “Because,” Barry answered. “Me and Sherry have already checked them out.” “That fast?” Jill asked, interested. “Well,” Barry said. “I let her check a couple of rooms by herself.” “You really shouldn’t do that!” Jill yelled. “Why not?” Barry asked. “She’s old enough. Think, Jill, think! Sherry is twelve years old!” “Whatever,” Jill said. “Oh, and one more thing,” Barry said. “I want to see you on the tenth floor.” “Why?” Jill asked. “Just meet me there,” Barry replied. “I’ll see you then.” “Bye,” Jill said. Then she hung up and punched in Leon’s number. “Leon?” “Hold on!” Leon suddenly yelled back. After two minutes, he finally replied. “Sorry,” he said. “I had encountered this monster with a huge mouth and huge claws. Have you seen such a thing?” “Yes,” Jill replied. “Anyways, how are you doing?” “I’m doing fine,” Leon replied. “What floor are you on?” Jill asked the rookie cop. “I’m on the second floor,” he said. “Listen, I can’t seem to find anything useful. Have you checked this floor already?” “Yes,” Jill replied. “Listen. Can you meet me on the tenth floor along with Barry?” “When?” Leon asked. “In about five minutes,” Jill replied. “I guess I could,” Leon replied. “Hold on, where are you?” “I’m in the elevator shaft,” Jill answered. “Stay where you are!” Leon shouted. “I’ll be there in a moment! Bye!” Leon had hung up. After another two minutes, Leon had climbed up underneath Jill. “Where’s Barry?” he asked. Jill looked up the shaft. “He’s going to meet us on ten,” she replied. “I see,” Leon said. “Well, let’s go!” They climbed up past five elevator doors and opened the sixth one up. Once they had climbed up on the floor, Barry and Sherry came around the corner. “Where were you Jill?” he asked. “I was waiting for Leon,” she replied. “Can’t you see he’s here?!” Barry looked at Leon. “I didn’t see him,” he said. “Have you checked this floor yet?” Leon asked Barry. “Yes,” he replied. “We have.” “Listen,” Jill said. “We’re going to have to search the floors separately. I’ll take floors 11, 12, and 13. Leon? You take 14, 15, and 16. Barry and Sherry will search floors 17, 18, 19, and 20. Once we all get to twenty, we’ll meet in the control room. Understood?” “Yes!” Leon, Barry and Sherry all said together. “Good,” Jill said. “Now. Barry and Sherry will leave first and they will call us on the radio once they reach the appropriate floor. Then Leon will leave and will call me on the radio once he reaches his first floor. Once he has, then I will go and search my floors. Barry and Sherry? You guys can go now.” After three minutes, Barry finally called. “We’ve reached our floor,” he said. “Okay,” Jill said. Then she looked at Leon. “You can go now.” After two minutes, Leon called. “I’m going now,” Jill told Leon and Barry over her radio. Once it was put away, she climbed up to eleven. As soon as she got to her feet, the green monster flew around the first corner. It took Jill five shots with her shotgun until the monster finally jumped through the opening to the elevator shaft. “Too bad,” she said. As she came around the corner, Jill spotted a sign above a door. “Control Room Eleven,” she read. Inside, there were more monitors on the wall above a number of computers. Of course, some of the monitors were broken. Jill ran over and watched them for five minutes. Suddenly, a young man ran across camera nine. “He looks really young,” she said, looking at the man. Suddenly, the huge monster with the smaller mouth and claws entered the screen. The man ran out of view, and the monster went after him. “That’s on this floor!” Jill ran back out into the hallway and ran through the second door. Inside was another office, but this one had a door in one of the corners. Jill didn’t take anytime to search the office for anything useful. She just went straight for the door. On the other side was another winding hallway. Suddenly, she banged into a young man. “Run for your life!” he yelled, jumping up and yelling in Jill’s ear. Then he ran through the door she had come in through. Suddenly, the huge monster with the larger mouth and claws, ran down the hallway. Jill quickly got up and pulled out her grenade launcher. Then she fired. The blow caused the monster to fly back and smash into the far wall. Suddenly, the hallway’s roof started to crack. Then the ceiling behind her fell down and crashed on the floor, blocking the door. Next, the hallway gave a violent shake. Run! Jill thought. She bolted toward the end of the hallway. But just before she got to the end, the rest of the ceiling collapsed. Jill quickly jumped and rolled, just before she was crushed. Then she got up and looked at the fallen ceiling. “That was very close,” she said, wiping the sweat off her face. But now, there was nowhere to go, except through the next door. As soon as she came through the door, somebody grabbed her and covered her mouth so she couldn’t scream. “Listen!” a voice said. “Keep quiet. It’s only me.” Jill turned and faced the figure. It was the young man that had crashed into her. “You!” she yelled. “Hey!” he whispered. “I told you! Keep quiet!” “Oh,” Jill whispered back. “I’m sorry.” “Do you know the name of that monster?” the young man asked again. “No,” Jill replied. “I don’t know any of these monsters names except for Nemesis.” “Well,” the young man said again. “First, let’s start with my name. My name is Carlos Oliveara. What’s yours?” “Jill. Jill Valentine,” she replied. “The R.P.D. S.T.A.R.S. Mechanical Expert.” “Interesting,” Carlos said. “Why are you here then?” “We thought we would be safe from inside this building,” Jill replied. “We are currently trying to find a way to get to Umbrella HQ in Europe.” “Why do you want to go there?” Carlos asked. “My best friend Chris is trapped there,” Jill answered, looking at the ground. “And I really care about him.” On the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, an Umbrella worker walked up the stairs to his boss’ office. “Boss?” he asked once he opened the door. “What now?!” the boss yelled, angrily. “The young man we hired a week ago still hasn’t arrived,” the man said while his body shaked like crazy. “We began a search for him and he was found in Raccoon City, New York.” “Why was he there?!” the boss asked. “There is nobody left in that city! Everyone is a Zombie!” “Well,” the man began. “There were also some other life forms found on the scanner.” “And who were they?” the boss asked, interested. “There were four people alive in an office tower,” the man replied. “But I can only remember one of the names.” “Well, who was it?!” the boss yelled, very annoyed. “Don’t waste my time!” “S-sorry,” the man apologised. “Now,” the boss said. “Who was it?” “I think it was,” the man replied. “Jill Valentine.” The boss stared at the man. “So,” he finally said after a couple of seconds. “She’s still alive. She’s knows how to survive. Now, would you mind bringing a prisoner to my office?” “No,” the man quickly answered. “Who do you want?” “Chris Redfield,” the boss answered. “I-I’m terrible sorry boss,” the man slowly said. “But I’m afraid we are unable to locate him.” “Is that so?” the boss replied, pulling out a gun and shooting his worker. “Nobody ever does what I tell them to,” the boss said to himself. Back in Raccoon City, Carlos was telling all the monster’s names. “The one with the big mouth and claws is Hunter Beta, and the one with the smaller claws and mouth is Hunter Gamma. The green monster is Hunter, and the one with the super-huge claw is the Grave Digger.” “Any more?” Jill asked. “That’s all I know,” Carlos replied. “There are more.” “Yes,” Jill said. “I know. Would you mind searching the next floor with me?” “Sure,” Carlos said almost right away. They quickly ran back to the elevator shaft and started climbing up to the 12th floor. As soon as they climbed to the floor, something jumped at Jill, barely missing her head. “Woah!” she yelled, jumping to her feet. Suddenly, Hunter Beta fell right in front of her and shoved something down her throat. Jill suddenly felt weak and dropped to the floor, passing out. “Jill!” Carlos cried, running over to her. He looked over at Hunter Beta, but it had vanished. “Damn!” he yelled. “That stupid thing planted an Embryol inside her!” He quickly picked her up and carried her to an office. Then he set her down on a couch. “Jill!” he yelled again. “Wake up!” Suddenly, Jill gave a violent twitch and slowly opened her eyes. “Wh-what h-happened?” she asked, feeling tired. “Welcome back,” Carlos said. “That Hunter Beta infected you with the G-Virus.” Suddenly, Jill’s eyes snapped open. “WHAT????!!!!” she shouted. But shouting only made her start coughing. “What did he do to get me infected?” “He planted an Embryol inside you,” Carlos replied. “Most humans don’t survive when the Embryol pupates, but you have a better chance of surviving, since you are strong.” “But I don’t want to become a product of the G-Virus!” Jill shouted, only to cough once more. “I like the way I am!” “Don’t worry,” Carlos said. “I’ll find a cure for you.” Just before Carlos left the room, Jill shook him. “Please hurry,” she said. “I’ll be back in time,” Carlos said. Once he was back in the hallway, he checked his map of the building. The first medical floor was on 30. He dashed back to the shaft and nearly started “jumping” up the ladder. But just before he past floor 15, somebody stopped him. “Hey!” a young man about 19 years old yelled, looking at him. “Who are you?” Carlos stopped climbing. It’s safe, he thought. “Somebody is injured badly!!” he shouted, grabbing the teenager. “Whoa!” the young man exclaimed. “Slow down!” Carlos let go. “Sorry,” he said. “I got carried away.” “Who are you?” asked the young man. “Carlos Oliveara,” Carlos replied. “And somebody is badly injured!” “Who?” the young man asked again. “Jill!” Carlos shouted, running back to the ladder in the shaft. “She’s infected with the G-Virus!!!” “Man,” Leon said, looking up at the ceiling. “Why doesn’t anyone ever listen to me?” Leon looked at the elevator shaft. “That young man was talking about Jill! I’d better call her!” He quickly punched in Jill’s code. No answer. “Come on, come on....” But there was still no answer. “Crap!” Leon shouted, stuffing his radio back in his pocket. “She’s really in trouble!” He slid down the ladder to the 12th floor and ran down the hallway, checking every room. In the third room, he found Jill laying down on a couch by the first desk. “Jill!” he shouted, running over to her. She was asleep. Leon gave her a couple of shakes, and she finally woke up. “W-what are you doing here?” she asked, sounding very sleepy. “I’ve come to see you,” Leon replied. “Since you cared about me when that monster was going to kill me back at the underground lab.” Jill gave a little smile. Leon thought she looked very pretty when she smiled. “It was nothing,” Jill said. Carlos searched the first room on the first medical floor. There was nothing on how to kill Embryols. In the second room, he found a base antidote container. Beside it, he found the instructions. ‘Preparing G-Virus Antidotes: Take the base antidote container and insert it in the VAM Machine. Flip the appropriate switch and then take out container. There should be some white liquid inside the container. Then take it to the antidote computer and insert the cartridge containing the white liquid into the slot. After waiting ten seconds, the antidote should be complete.’ Carlos stuck the base container into the giant machine beside the desk and flipped a switch. Then he took out the container and looked around for the antidote computer. But there was no computer in sight. He ran back out into the hallway and went into the Medical room. Inside, all he found was a note. ‘Medical Report: The antidote computer has been moved from the Medical room on 30, due to all the people sick on floors 60 through 70. Doctors will find it on 65. End of Report.’ “WHAT?!” Carlos shouted. “65!!! Why can’t they just get another computer?!” Then the thought of Jill turning into an ultimate killing machine struck him. “Hold on Jill!” Leon stood beside Jill, feeling very helpless. “I just wish there was some way to help you,” he told her. Then he thought about the young man he bumped into. He must have been looking for a cure! “Jill?” Leon said. “I’ll be back in 15.” Jill could only give a slight nod. He quickly flew out the door and climbed as fast as he could up the ladder. Carlos heard something clicking on the ladder below him. Below him, the young man he had seen earlier, was following him. “Why are you following me?!” he shouted down at the young man. “What?” the young man called back. “Why are you following me?” Carlos asked. “Let me come up and tell you,” the young man replied. Once they were both on 40, they stopped to catch their breaths. “Who are you?” Carlos asked the young man. “Leon Kennedy,” the young man told him. “I was with the R.P.D. until all this happened. You?” “Carlos Oliveara,” Carlos said. “I was hired by Umbrella, but I was attacked by Zombies on my way through Raccoon City.” He looked down at the ground. “They must be looking for me now. But I can’t leave until I finish the cure for Jill.” Leon looked at the white substance Carlos had pulled out. “I’m with you,” he said. “But we better get going if we want to save her.” Both of them ran back towards the elevator shaft, but were stopped by a big creature with a black suit. “Great!” Leon shouted, pulling out his Grenade Launcher. “Something to slow us down!” Leon fired five grenades at Nemesis while Carlos just stood there and watched the action. Suddenly, Nemesis jumped away, and the big green monster jumped up from the shaft. “What is this thing?!” Leon asked Carlos, firing many grenades at the monster. “Hunter,” Carlos replied, still doing nothing at all to help. Suddenly, Hunter jumped over Leon and slashed him in the arm. “OW!!!” he yelled, dropping his gun and grabbing his arm. Carlos just stood there and watched Leon grab his arm in agony. “Well don’t just stand there!” Leon shouted at Carlos, who only gave a slight nod. Suddenly, Hunter swung it’s claw at Carlos’ head, but he had already ducked and grabbed the Grenade Launcher. Then he fired a grenade at Hunter’s chest. Hunter flew back and crashed into the far wall, getting knocked out. Carlos looked down at Leon, who was still grabbing his arm. “I know it hurts,” he said. “But you’ll have to keep climbing.” Leon looked up at Carlos, and then shook his head. “No,” he said. “I’m staying here.” Carlos widened his eyes. “Are you crazy?!” he shouted. “Those creatures are everywhere!” “Don’t worry about me,” Leon said. “I’ll be fine.” Yeah, right, Carlos thought to himself. “If you say so....,” he said, heading back for the shaft. “I’ll be back for you.” Leon gave a nod. Carlos took one final look, and then continued up the ladder. 50, 55, 60! He had reached his destination! “Yes!” Carlos exclaimed. “I’m finally here!” He ran down the hallway and opened the first door. A Zombie tried to attacked him as soon as he entered the room, but barely missed him. “DIE!!” Carlos shouted, shooting the Zombie with his handgun. Once the Zombie was down, he continued his search for the antidote computer. There were no computers in this room, so he checked the next one. “Computer, computer....,” he kept saying to himself. “Computer!” Luckily, the antidote computer was around the corner of the room. Carlos ran up to it and stuck the cartridge into the slot. After ten seconds, the glass case opened, and the blue substance inside the cartridge emerged. Carlos quickly tucked it away and slid back down the ladder in the shaft to 12. “Jill!” he shouted as he burst through the door leading to the room Jill was in. “I finally got the antidote!” But Jill was asleep. “Come on!” Carlos shouted, shaking Jill. “Wake up!” It appeared that Jill was in a deep coma. Without thinking, he poured the antidote into Jill’s mouth. Then he looked at her neck to see if she would swallow it. Suddenly, her neck muscles moved, indicating that she had swallowed. Then she woke up. “C-Carlos?” she asked. “Did you get the antidote?” “Yeah,” he replied. “You’ve already swallowed it. You’re all better now!” A smile slowly spread across Jill’s face. “Thanks again,” she said. “I owe you one.” “Stay right here,” Carlos instructed. “I’ve got to go back for Leon.” “What happened to him?” Jill asked. Carlos turned around and faced her. “He was slashed in the arm by Hunter,” he answered. “Now, I’ve got to go help him.” Jill nodded and laid back down on the couch. Carlos burst out the door and re-climbed the ladder up to 40. But when he was up and standing on the floor, Leon was nowhere in sight. “Leon?” he called. He walked around the first corner, but Leon was not there. “Leon?!” Carlos called, but there was still no reply from Leon. “This isn’t some sort of joke, is it?!” As he was heading back for the elevator shaft, he found something on the ground. It was one of Leon’s bike gloves. “Oh, no!” he shouted. “He’s was eaten!” Carlos ran back to the shaft and slid back down to Jill. “Jill! Jill!” Carlos shouted, bursting into the room. “He’s dead! He’s dead!” “Leon?!” Jill shouted. “Is he really?!” “Yes! Yes!” Carlos cried, pulling out Leon’s bike glove. “This is proof!” Jill studied the glove. “No,” she said. “No!” And with that, she burst out of the room and began to climb up to 20. “Wait!” Carlos shouted. “Where are you going?!” “I’ve got to get to Barry!” Jill shouted back, climbing as hard as she could. Once she got to 20, she quickly jumped up and ran around the first corner. “Barry?!” she yelled. No reply. “Barry?!” she yelled again. But there was still silence. “My radio!” Jill exclaimed, pulling it out and pressing Barry’s code. “Barry?! Are y-PSSSSSHHHHH!!!!!” The radio had lost reception. “Damn!” she yelled, running back to the ladder. “Where is he?!” Once she was back on 12, she looked around for Carlos. But he was not here either. “NO!!!!” Jill yelled. “Where is everyone?!” She tired her radio once more, but it had run out of batteries. “Crap!” she yelled, frantically trying to fix it, but with no success. “Now what?!” She ran back to the elevator and climbed as fast as she could up to 70. Once Jill got there, she ran over to the first door, and burst through. Inside the large room, there was a desk over in the far right corner, some filing cabinets beside it, and an easy-chair behind the desk. Jill ran over to the desk and found a note written by the boss. ‘Boss’ Diary: September 27th, 1998, 5:49pm: More and more Zombies keep coming into my office tower! Why? What’s so important in here?! Why did that stupid chemical producing company have to come here anyways?! They must be laughing their heads off right now. September 27th, 1998, 8:00pm: Tonight, I arranged a meeting in the conference room just across from my office. We talked about our escape route: Head down to Parking Lot 3 and go through the furthest manhole. Open it and climb down the ladder-which leads to the sewers. Then try to find a stream that leads outside of the city. September 28th, 1998, 3:28am: A 5 of my workers made it through the sewers alive, but the other 7 were killed by another mysterious creature. I don’t think I even have a chance of getting down to the manhole, since more and more Zombies keep coming in and more and more monsters keep appearing through-out the building. There’s no more escape route left. It’s all guarded. September 28th, 1998, 8:43pm: I am the only one left alive in this building. Everyone else has already turned into Zombies, or were killed by those monsters. I’m going to commit suicide with this gun, in hope that my dead body won’t rise again.....’ Jill put the diary away and turned towards the door. Just before she opened it, somebody broke through. “AAAHHH!!!!” she screamed, jumping back. “W-what?!” a familiar voice asked. Then the man walked into the light. “B-Barry?” Jill whispered. Barry turned and faced Jill. “Yep,” he said. “It’s me.” “Where’s Sherry?” Jill asked, looking around. “Uh,” Barry started. “We got separated when Nemesis attacked us. She got away, and now she’s lost.” “That’s just great,” Jill said, sarcastically. “Sherry doesn’t know the hazards around here! Way to go!” Barry looked down. “I’m really sorry.” Jill lifted his head up. “Don’t worry about it. She’s old enough to take care of herself.” Barry eyed her. “Are you sure?” “Pretty sure,” Jill replied. “Now, let’s get out of here. By the way, where were you? You weren’t on 20.” “Me and Sherry left because we thought something had happened to you since you took so long,” Barry told her. “Something did happen to me,” Jill said. “I was infected with the G-Virus.” “WHAT?!” Barry yelled. “You were?” “Yes, I was,” Jill said again. “But this young man named Carlos Oliveara saved me.” “A young man eh?” Barry repeated. “I met a young man on 30, but he ran away before I could say anything.” Suddenly, the thought of Leon came to her. “Did you, by any chance, see Leon?” Barry rubbed his chin. “I saw him an hour ago on 40,” Barry said. “He was slashed in the arm by this thing called ‘Hunter.’ I asked if he was going to get up, but he said he couldn’t climb anything with his arm in that condition. I left him for a bit and when I returned, he wasn’t there anymore.” “I wonder where he is,” Jill said. “Does you radio still work?” “Not only did it stop working,” Barry told her. “But it was smashed up by Nemesis.” Suddenly, Jill heard something crack inside the wall beside her. “Listen!” she shouted, eyes wide open. “Did you hear that?” Barry stood very still. “Yep,” he quickly said. Crrrrrrraaaaacccckkkk! Suddenly, the wall beside Jill smash open, revealing Nemesis. “Holy crap!” she yelled jumping behind the desk. Nemesis slowly walked over to Barry and fired a rocket at him. Luckily, he had jumped away in time, and the rocket had flown through the wall. Then he quickly crawled over to Jill. “Oh no!” he yelled, pulling out the rocket launcher Leon and Jill and brung for him. “I’m going to use this.” Jill nodded, and Barry stood up. “Take this!” he yelled, firing a rocket at Nemesis’ chest. Nemesis just stood there, letting the rocket hit him. Once the smoke had cleared, Nemesis was nowhere in sight. “What the-” Jill started, but just couldn’t seem to finish. Nemesis was just simply not there any more. Suddenly, something that weighed a ton hit Barry in the back. Jill watched as he flew halfway across the room and crashed into some more filing cabinets. Then he moaned and went unconscious. Jill turned around and saw that a giant fist had broke through the wall. What?! But-- that’s impossible! The fist had belonged to Nemesis. Nemesis blew up! That just can’t be! But it was true. Jill turned around and ran over to Barry. “Barry!” she shouted. “Wake up!” Suddenly, Jill slapped Barry on the cheek as hard as she could, which made him gain consciousness. “Wha-what happened?” he slowly made out. “Somehow,” Jill replied. “Nemesis had dodged your rocket and slammed it’s fist into your back. Barry reached around and touched his back. “I think it’s broken,” he said. “I need to find Rebecca.” Jill rubbed his back. “Actually,” she said. “It’s just cracked. Good thing you were wearing your bullet-proof vest.” Barry stood up. “Yeah,” he agreed. “Good thing.” Jill walked over to the door and faced Barry. “Now, let’s get the hell outta here,” she said. “Good plan,” Barry nodded. Once they were back out in the hallway, they ran quickly made their way over to the shaft and slid down the ladder all the way back to the lobby. Barry looked around for Officer Branaugh, but he was no where in sight. Suddenly, Jill spotted some legs coming around the corner of the secretary’s desk. “Over there!” she exclaimed, pointing. They ran over to the legs and turned over the body. “What happened?” Jill asked. It was Branaugh, but blood was dripping from his mouth and his ribs were showing. His arm had also been twisted off. “We’ve got to get out of this building,” Barry said. “I thought you said it was safe. Just like you said we would be safe up at the facility on top of that mountain when Nemesis was chasing us.” Jill looked at Barry. “Hey,” she said. “I didn’t know it was dangerous in all of Raccoon City’s buildings. And how the hell was I supposed to know that Nemesis was going to turn up at the facility?” Barry nodded. “Your right. But what will we do about Sherry?” Suddenly, Sherry ran over to them. “Barry!” she shouted, running into his arms. “I’ve been trying to look for you, but I couldn’t find you!” Barry stroked her hair. “I couldn’t find you either, but at least we’re safe now.” Jill gave Barry a funny look. “Yeah, right,” she said. “Leon and Carlos are still missing.” “Oh yeah,” Barry said while his bubble of hope burst. “I forgot.” Suddenly, Leon and Carlos burst through the door on the far wall. “Get out of this building!” Leon yelled, pushing Barry and Sherry while Carlos pushed Jill. “Lot’s of crap coming this way!” Jill started running. Then she turned around. “Let’s go!” Leon shouted. Suddenly, all of the doors in the lobby smashed open, revealing Nemesis, Hunter, Hunter Beta, and Hunter Gamma. The five of them just ran until they got out on the street. “How’d they get together?” Barry asked. “I don’t know,” Leon replied. “Me and Carlos had found each other and suddenly, these monsters started chasing us.” Jill stared at the office tower, pulling out a grenade. “Jill?!” Carlos yelled. “What are you doing?!” But Jill wasn’t listening. She threw the grenade at the entrance to the office tower. Once it hit the ground, it exploded on the monsters. “They deserved it,” Jill said. Barry looked at the blown-away entrance. “It looks like you didn’t clear all of them away Jill,” he said. Jill turned towards the entrance. “WHAT?!” she shouted, very surprised. Nemesis had disappeared again. “Uh oh,” Barry said. Suddenly, a giant fist barely missed Leon’s hip. “WHOA!!!” he shouted, jumping away. “Did anyone tell me that this thing had superhuman speed?” “Let’s get out of this area and get in Leon’s jeep,” Jill said. “Then we can drive to New York and catch a plane to Vienna.” “Why do we want to go there?” Sherry asked. “Because,” Jill began. “The Umbrella HQ is on a desert in Austria. Leon? Do you remember where you parked your jeep when your first came into town?” “Of course I do,” Leon answered. “It’s parked on Bybee near O’Kelly’s” “Good,” Jill said. “That’s really close to us.” They ran all the way down Vermont St. until they got to Bybee, Raccoon City’s first real street. Jill looked around. She could remember Bybee from when she was just a little girl. Bybee would have been teeming with life if all this wouldn’t have happened. “Damn Umbrella,” she muttered to herself. Leon’s jeep was parked on the corner of 15th Avenue. “Well,” he said. “Here it is. Hop in.” Jill sat in the front with Leon, while Barry, Carlos, and Sherry sat in the back. Once Sherry was settled in, she fell fast asleep. On the highway lead out of Raccoon City, many Zombies tried to go after them, but the jeep was too fast for them. After an hour and a half, they finally reached New York City- which was northeast of Raccoon City. Leon drove all the way to the airport. Once they were inside, they paid for their tickets and walked through the metal detectors. They had left all their guns in the back of Leon’s jeep, since the flight attendant would not let them have guns on the plane. Leon sat with Jill, while Barry and Sherry sat together. Carlos was sitting in the middle row of the plane. “Well,” Leon said. “We’re on our way to infiltrate Umbrella HQ which will probably be a suicide mission.” Jill looked over at him. “It’s not suicide,” she said. “Besides, the place is probably crawling with zombies anyways. And we’re trying to rescue Chris and Claire.” Claire, Leon thought to himself. I hope she’s okay. After a nine hour flight, they had reached Vienna, and had rented a van to drive to Umbrella. So far, the area looked pretty zombie-free, but Leon knew that there were going to be some zombies at Umbrella. In another hour, they would have reached their destination. The boss slowly moved through the hallways of his HQ. Chris was nowhere in site. “That kid is one damn good mover,” he said. “But I was always better.” The boss walked towards the entrance to the library. “Maybe he’s in here.” Not far behind, Chris Redfield had been listening to what the boss had been saying. “I was always better,” he repeated. “I remember that saying. Back at the Spencer Mansion, Wesker told me that.” Suddenly, Chris widened his eyes. “This boss sounds like Wesker!” He looked around the corner at the boss. “But, that can’t be! Wesker was killed by a Tyrant!” Chris took one more quick look at the boss. “Woah! It is Wesker! But, how’d he come back?!” “We’re here,” Leon told the guys and gals. “Umbrella HQ.” Jill looked around. “Finally,” she said. “Remember all the trouble we had, Barry? We couldn’t get out on a boat, and now it’s probably totalled.” Barry looked at her. “Yeah, I remember.” “Well,” Jill said. “I’m going in.” She ran through the entrance, not listening to the guys shouting after her. “I’ve got to find Chris!” she yelled back, once she was inside. Chris slowly walked back to the cell block. He could have sworn he had heard somebody yelling over by the entrance. “Great,” he said. “Somebody else to get on my nerves.” But little did he know that this person was his friend. He walked down the stairs to the basement and ran around the corner leading to the cell block. On the other side of the caged door, he could see that someone was laying down on the ground, unconscious. He quickly ran over and saw that it was a girl. “Hello?” Chris called. But the person gave no reply. Chris opened the prison door and looked at the young girl’s face. “Claire!” he exclaimed. “What are you doing here?” Apparently, Claire had heard him this time. “C-Chris?” she said, feeling dizzy. “Wh-where am I?” Chris hugged his younger sister as tight as he could. “I missed you. We’re in Umbrella Headquarters.” Suddenly, the caged door leading to the cell block slid open. Chris jumped to his feet and pulled out his gun. Once he saw who it was, he lowered it. “Jill? Is that you?” “Yep,” she replied. “It’s me.” Chris ran over to her and hugged her. “I was worried about you,” she whispered to him. “Is anyone else here?” he asked Jill. “Yeah,” Jill replied. “Barry, Leon, Carlos, and Sherry.” “Barry Burton?” Chris asked. “Of course,” Jill told him. “The new cop Leon Kennedy, the Umbrella mercenary Carlos Oliveara, and Sherry Birkin.” Birkin. Chris had heard of that name before. He had met William Birkin at the Spencer Mansion. But when he had asked his Umbrella friend Dan Tucker where he was, he told him that he needed to stay behind. Where the hell was Dan, anyways? He had left on a tram with Rebecca two days ago, and they hadn’t come back. “Jill,” Chris said. “I need to tell you something that you might not believe.” “What?” Jill asked. Chris looked down at the ground. “Wesker is alive.” Once again, Jill widened her eyes. “What?! I thought he was killed in the mansion!” “He was,” Chris told her. “Umbrella must have somehow healed his body to full strength or something.” “Where is he?” Jill asked. “I saw him just outside of the library upstairs.” Then Chris thought about the Leon she had mentioned. “Did you say, Leon Kennedy?” “Yes,” Jill answered. “Why?” “Isn’t he the new cop Irons mentioned before our mission at the Spencer Mansion?” “That would be him,” Jill said. “I need to meet him,” Chris said. “I’ll meet up with you later.” “Okay....,” Jill slowly said. “If you think you’ll be okay, then I guess we can.” “Good,” Chris said, running off. Suddenly, Claire stopped him. “Where are you going?” she asked. “I can’t lose you again....” “Don’t worry,” Chris said to her. “I’ll be back soon. Stay with Jill.” Claire walked over to Jill. “Be back soon,” Jill told him. “I will,” Chris answered. After taking one last look at Jill and Claire, he shut the door behind him, hoping that he would return......alive. The boss had searched every part of the library, still searching for the missing Chris Redfield. “Hmm......where is that guy?” He kicked the next door open. “Crap! He ain’t here! I wonder where he is.....” Chris ran around the first corner, being very cautious. “This mission is almost impossible and suicide. This multibillion dollar company could easily stop us.” He pulled out his handgun and examined it. “Good thing that guard was carrying this baby,” he said, patting it. “It’s been very useful.” Suddenly, three zombies broke out of the first room around the next corner. Chris gave a quick laugh and flew around the corner. “You guys are hopeless,” he said, grinning as he killed each one. “Hah!” Suddenly, a Licker flew from the roof. “Holy-” Chris started, spinning around and shooting the Licker. “Where’d you come from?” The Licker finally went down after a couple of shots. “I need some more ammo,” Chris said, patting himself. “If I don’t get some fast, I’m not going to last very long.” Suddenly, an idea snapped into Chris’ mind. “I’ve got to tell the guys!” He quickly ran back to the cells and burst through the door. “Jill! Claire!” Jill and Claire stood up and looked at him. “Did you find the boss?” Jill asked. “No,” Chris replied. “But I’ve got a good idea.” “What is it?” Claire asked. “If we go to Vienna’s police dept., we could load up on ammo and get some help!” Chris exclaimed. “Sounds good to me,” Jill said. “But what about Barry, Leon and Sherry?” “Well,” Chris said. “We’ll have to get them.” They ran back to the entrance, where they found Barry and Leon. “Where did you go?” Leon asked Jill. “We’ve been worried sick!” “I found Chris and Claire,” Jill replied, ignoring Leon’s question. “Leon!” Claire cried, running into his arms. Chris smiled as Claire ran into the rookie cop’s arms. “Well,” he muttered to himself. “It looks like she finally found a guy.” Barry ran over to Chris. “How’s it going?” “Pretty good,” Chris replied. “We’re just about to head for Vienna’s Police Department.” “Good,” Barry said. “We could use all the help we can get.” Leon drove them all the way back to Vienna. Chris thought it felt good riding in the back of a jeep with no cover. Once they got to the police station, someone greeted them. “And, who are you guys?” the officer asked with an Austrian accent. “Well,” Chris began. “I need to use a computer.” The computer lab was on the second floor. The room was already busy with officers moving from one computer to another. “Woah,” Chris said to no one but himself. “This place is packed.” Jill and the rest of the guys were waiting for him in the lobby. Chris walked over to an empty computer and logged on to the internet. He was going to search for files on Umbrella. “Let’s see what we have.” He went to www.altavista.com and typed in Umbrella. After twenty seconds, only one site on Umbrella had been found. Chris clicked on the link, and a new screen appeared. The site’s index page had the Umbrella logo at the top, and a whole bunch of news from 1995 to 1998. Chris read the most recent article. ‘September 28, 1998: We have sent our best S.W.A.T. teams to retrieve Birkin’s G-Virus. We started this S.W.A.T. team because the R.P.D.’s S.T.A.R.S. team was unable to be bought. The S.T.A.R.S. suspension will be on until further notice. They have been suspended for being responsible of the Spencer Mansion’s explosion. Birkin has been working on the G-Virus for some time now, and refuses to hand it in. His reason is that it is not quite finished. We were going to ask him again, but he suddenly disappeared after the S.W.A.T. team recovered the virus. The team was found dead in the sewers below R.P.D. It seems as though they were attacked by an undiscovered creature, due to the claw marks beneath the blood on their bodies. The matter is being considered and we will not know what is going on until our research team reports.’ Umbrella’s new boss was faking his morning jog, playing his walkman on full blast. Suddenly, he bumped into a milkman. “Excuse me,” he said. “Sorry.” The milkman looked up at him and shook his head. “Crazy man,” he said. Once he came back from a house, he heard some music coming from the bushes behind him. While he was putting empty bottles into his truck, the music got louder, and then some headphones were swung over his head. The man behind him started choking him with it and pulled him into the bush. Once the milkman was dead, the boss quickly changed clothes and drove off, towards the police station. Once he entered through the back door, he headed for the kitchen. Suddenly, the chef in the kitchen could hear loud rock music. “Morning,” the boss said once he entered the room. “Put it over there, mate,” the chef told the boss. But once the milkbottles were set down, the boss swung the headphones over the chef’s head. Then he started choking him. Outside of the kitchen, a man bringing some wine heard some loud music. Once he opened the door, he saw a man lifting the chef’s body behind a counter. “Green four to base-” the man started talking into his intercom, but could not finish because the man had already ran for him. The man kicked him in the gut and then swung him over to the stove, pushing his head down to the stove. “AAAHHH!!!” the man screamed, once his face touched the burning hot coals. Then he kicked the other man away and jumped up to his feet, kicking the boss. Then he tried chopping him, but the boss moved away and pushed the guy into some boxes and threw a pot of boiling hot water at him. The water missed, so the boss picked up a pan and whacked the other man’s face, knocking him out. “Green four to base,” the boss said, speaking into the intercom. “Everything is under control.” Then the boss started towards the computer lab. Chris couldn’t believe there was only one site on Umbrella. “You would think there’d be more,” he mumbled to himself. As he turned around, he caught a glimpse of a bottle full of milk flying towards a computer. Once it hit the screen, it exploded. “AAAHHH!!!” the officer shouted, flying back. Whoop! Whoop! The alarm had gone off. Suddenly, another milkbottle flew towards Chris’ head. Luckily, Chris ducked just in time, and the bottle exploded on his computer, sending Chris across the floor. “WHOA!!!” he yelled, once he landed. Suddenly, a drop of red fell on the floor. Chris then realized that his forehead had somehow started bleeding. Then another milkbottle blew up on another computer, sending another guy in the air. Chris suddenly spotted a silhouette through the thick smoke. Then the figure ran down the hallway. Chris followed, not caring about what he just saw. “Hey!” and officer shouted. “Where are you going?!” “To catch a fish,” Chris told him, smiling. Chris ran down the first set of stairs that led to the lobby. “Excuse me,” Chris asked the secretary. “But did you, by an chance, see someone you didn’t recognize?” “Yes,” the secretary replied. “He ran down the stairs to the basement.” “Thanks,” Chris said, running over to the stairs. At the bottom, there was a hallway that led to jail cells at both ends. Chris ran down the hallway to his right and stopped in the cell room. It’s a little quiet in here, he thought. Suddenly, something whacked him in the shins, causing Chris to fall down. Then a man in a black suit jumped out from the shadows and kicked him in the face. Before the man could get another punch or kick on him, Chris jumped up and kicked the man in the gut. As the man was falling down, Chris noticed the badge on the sleeve of the man’s black suit. S.T.A.R.S. If this man was truly a S.T.A.R.S. member, he would have to be a traitor. And the only traitor Chris could remember of was--Wesker. Albert Wesker, S.T.A.R.S. captain, traitor to the Spencer Estate mission. Chris would never forget that name. “You!” he yelled, as he kicked Wesker hard in the face. Suddenly, Wesker lashed out and double-kicked Chris in the chest, knocking him down. “You’ve always known.” Chris got up and punched Wesker. “So, you’re still alive.” “I think I’m the best one to explain this,” Wesker said, kicked Chris to the ground. “Umbrella found my body before the Spencer Mansion blew up. Then they took it to their HQ, where they put me in a tank. Once I was in, they added water with special chemicals which somehow regenerated my body.” Once Wesker was done, Chris tripped him. “I also gained superhuman strength,” Wesker told him. “I guess I should demonstrate it.” Wesker pulled his fist back, and then swung. Chris didn’t even see what happened. He was suddenly hit with a powerful force and the next thing he knew, he was flying in the air. Then he hit the wall behind him, almost blacking out. “See?” Wesker said. “Yeah,” Chris said. “I see.” Wesker walked over to Chris and punched him in the side of the head. Then Chris jumped up and grabbed Albert’s head. “This is for you!” he yelled, as he kept kneeing Wesker in the head. Suddenly, two arms wrapped around Chris’ leg and he was lifted off the ground. Wesker had a tight hold on him. Chris tried punching him, but before he could even try, Wesker threw him against the wall. Chris banged against it and fell to the ground. I’ll turn the lights off and then run away, Chris thought. He quickly reached up and flicked the light switch off. Once the lights were off, Chris listened for a sound. Nothing. “Wesker?” he asked. But there was no answer. Chris turned the lights on. Wesker had disappeared. “Huh? Where is the bastard?” He walked outside the cells and saw that Wesker hadn’t gone through it. When Chris walked back to the cells, he saw a trapdoor in the floor. “Where does this lead to?” he asked himself, opening it. There was a ladder leading down into nothing but pure blackness. Chris thought about climbing down it, but then he thought about his friends waiting for him. He would have to go by himself. After all, Wesker was nothing but trouble. Jill was getting annoyed. Chris should have been back by now. “Where is he?” she muttered to herself. Barry was checking out the guns facility down on the first floor with Sherry, and Leon and Claire were sitting on a bench. “Leon?” Jill asked. Leon stood up. “Yeah?” “Chris hasn’t come back yet,” she told him. Claire walked over to her. “We have to look for him!” she exclaimed. “No,” Jill said. “I’m going by myself.” “What?!” Leon yelled. “You’ve got to be kidding!” “I’m not,” Jill told them. “I know what I’m doing.” Leon and Claire exchanged looks. “We’ll wait here,” Claire eventually said. “Yuck!” Chris exclaimed once he reached the bottom of the ladder. He was now standing on a platform high above sewage water. “This place is gross!” Suddenly, something heavy landed on his head and knocking him down. “Are you trying to follow me?” Wesker’s voice asked. Chris got up and kicked Wesker in the shoulder. “Yes, as a matter of fact, I am!” Wesker did another one of his super punches, knocking Chris into a steel pole. Suddenly, the clanging of metal filled the area. Wesker walked over to the ladder. Suddenly, something dropped on his head. “Jill!” Chris shouted. “Get the hell off me!” Wesker shouted, swinging Jill around. Finally, Jill flew through the air, hitting a wall. “Keep your hands off her!” Chris shouted, jumping at Wesker’s head. Wesker spun around and super punched Chris in the gut, sending him towards another post. “What’s taking her so long?” Leon asked himself. “Claire, I’m going after her. Wait here.” “Okay......,” Claire said. Once again, the sound of clanging filled the room. Suddenly, another cop dropped from the manhole and hit Wesker in the back of the head. Wesker fell to the ground, and Leon looked at his friends. “You guys okay?” he asked. “Yeah,” Chris and Jill replied together. Wesker noticed that Leon wasn’t paying attention, so he super kicked Leon in the chest. The next thing Leon knew, he was laying on the ground with a sharp pain in his head. Must’ve hit something, he thought, looking behind him. His head had hit the stone wall. Chris burst towards Wesker and jumped at his head. Wesker ducked and Chris hit the ground. Then he got up and kicked Wesker in the gut. Wesker was getting mad. With his temper at full power, he super kicked Chris all the way to the other end of the platform. Suddenly, Jill hit Wesker in the back of the head with the end of her handgun, forcing a trickle of blood to flow and knocking Wesker to the ground. He quickly got up and super punched Jill over to where Chris was. “How could he have gotten this strong?” Jill asked Chris. “I don’t know,” he replied. “I just don’t know.” Suddenly, something hit the ground and thick smoke filled the cave. Once it cleared, Chris looked around. “Hey, where’s Wesker?” Jill and Leon moved around the platform. “Gone,” Leon said. “He must have gotten away when the smoke filled the area.” “Where could he have gone?” Jill asked the boys. “Maybe he went back up the ladder,” Leon suggested. “Where does the rest of this platform lead to?” Chris ran around the next corner. “Umbrella,” he told them once he returned. “But the door lead to Umbrella HQ is boarded-up. There is no way he could have gotten through there.” “Then he must have gone back up the ladder,” Jill said. Chris rubbed his chin. “You guys move those boards and get to Umbrella. I’ll go back up to the police station for my sister. We’ll meet up in the library.” Jill and Leon exchanged glances. “Okay,” they said together. Chris spotted a man at the top of the ladder. “Your tricks are dirty,” he said, jumping up and kicking him. “Maybe your right,” Wesker answered, punching Chris in the gut. “But they’re good use in an escape plan.” Chris kicked Wesker in the head, but Wesker didn’t retaliate. Instead, he ran up the stairs, throwing another milkbottle at Chris. He quickly jumped aside, and the bottle hit the wall next to him. The explosion caused the building to shake, but Chris didn’t care. He got right back up and ran after Wesker. Jill had made a fool out of herself. “Carlos!” she shouted. “We forgot about him!” Leon jumped up. “WHAT?!” “We forgot about Carlos and left him alone! I’ll bet Umbrella has found him!” “Perfect,” Leon said. “Just perfect.” “I guess the best we can do is get to Umbrella through this door,” Jill told him. Chris couldn’t believe his eyes. The whole lobby of the police station was on fire. The balcony was jammed with officers trying to get from one place to another, and five zombies had somehow broken in through the front doors. Must’ve come from Umbrella, Chris thought. He ran over to the front desk and pulled out his handgun, pointing it at the first zombie. The bullet went right through it’s brain and caught the second one in the neck. The third zombie jumped at an officer and bite him in the stomach, knocking him down. “AAAHHH!!!” he screamed, as the other two zombies dropped down and began eating him. Chris jumped around and prepared to shoot the zombies, but a milkbottle flew over his head and blew up over the man’s body, killing the zombies as well. Suddenly, two milkbottles exploded on a wall behind a man who was standing on the balcony. The explosion knocked him off the balcony and he hit the ground hard. He would’ve broken his arm after that fall, Chris thought. Suddenly, two men came running through a door and stopped when they saw Wesker. But before they could pull out their guns, he threw a milkbottle at them, which blew them halfway across the room. The whole place was going crazy. Chris couldn’t believe how many explosions were appearing. Suddenly, another explosion blew a window up above the balcony apart. The glass shattered over an officer, cutting his shoulder. Chris ran over to the staircase leading up to the second floor and climbed up. As soon as he reached the top, a man bumped into him. “Watch it!” the officer yelled. Chris just ignored him and ran through the door next to him. He found himself back in the computer lab, which had already filled with smoke. There were a couple of officers trapped in a corner, blocked off by the fire. “Help!” they kept yelling. “Is somebody there?!” “Yes!” Chris yelled back. “I can hear you guys! But I can’t get to you right now!” “Send for help!” an officer shouted. “I will!” Chris shouted. The next door led to a hallway, which led to some offices and the waiting room. Chris broke through the door to the waiting room. Claire was laying on a bench, unconscious. “It’s time to go,” he said as he picked her up. Chris walked all the way to Leon’s jeep and lay Claire in the back seat. Then he ran back to the computer lab, grabbing a fire extinguisher on his way. Once a path was cleared for the officers, they thanked Chris, and ran out into the lobby. Chris watched the door close, and ran back to Leon’s jeep. He jumped in the driver’s seat and turned the key. Carlos was laying dazed on a cement floor. There were bars all around him. It appeared that he was in some sort of cell. Unaware of where he was, he picked the lock to the caged door. When he heard a click, he pushed the cell door open and ran up the stairs to his right. Surely, Jill would find him. She had to. She was the only friend he now had since his other friend had died. “Randy!” Carlos shouted, killing the zombie. “Are you okay?” Randy Thomas covered his ankle, which was badly bleeding. “The thing bit right through my boot,” he said. “Hang on,” Carlos said. “I’m going to see if I can find some sort of transmission radio.” Randy looked at Carlos. They had been resting in the area for almost half-an-hour. He seemed to look like he had suffered a concussion. “Carlos, Let’s get out of here. Let’s go home. I want to go home.” “We’re going to have to wait here for a bit longer,” Carlos told him. But Randy didn’t last any longer. When Carlos left the transmission room, Randy was lurching towards him. There was one more survivor. Nikolai Ginovaef. He was the captain of platoon A. Carlos called him the “Psycho Russian” since he killed all of the other soldiers. Even poor Mikhail Viktor, and Carlos’ other friend Wersbowski. But Nikolai hadn’t been aware of Umbrella’s “pets.” He was killed by a brain sucker earlier. Carlos shoved all of his thoughts aside and ran down the next hallway. Chris didn’t arrive until sundown. Umbrella’s HQ seemed creepier than ever at night. The Umbrella symbol seemed to stick-out from the moon’s reflection. And the bastards are going to pay for what they have done, he thought to himself. Chris moved through the entrance and was surprised to hear voices coming from the conference room. He peered in through the window next to the door and listen. “Why did we even start all this?” one man asked. “Because,” another man answered. “We wanted to test out our T-Virus and apparently, it spilled.” “But look what it’s done!” the first man shouted. “And why did we create those deformed monsters? We wanted to freak the citizens of Raccoon City out, and now, they are attacking us! Three men were found dead in the basement this morning!” “Quiet down,” a third man said. “We need an escape route.” “Hey, where’s Trent?” a fourth man asked. “He hasn’t been at work for the last two weeks!” “Oh, him?” the second man asked. “I thought he resigned two weeks ago.” “Yeah?” a fifth man asked. “I heard that he was telling everyone secrets about us!” “Does anyone know where Daniel Tucker went?” a sixth man asked. “He’s been missing for two days now!” “I think he’s been working with some of the ex-S.T.A.R.S.,” a seventh man said. “I though they were dead!” the fourth man yelled. “I believe that only some of them are dead,” the seventh man said. “But some of them are still alive.” “We must stop them at all costs!” the sixth man shouted. “We will split up and secure the whole building.” “Good!” the first man exclaimed. “Meeting adjourned!” Chris ran through a door and closed it tight. Behind it, he could hear some of the men running through the hall. There were about forty of them. And they’re all looking for me, Chris told himself. Barry was getting impatient. The others had told him that they would come get him once they were finished. Since Barry knew a lot about guns, the gunman standing next to the entrance had given Barry an M16. He walked out of the room to go look for the others. But the hallway was dimly lit with little flames on the walls and on the ground. “Boy,” he said. “I wonder what happened here.” There were two bodies on the ground. One was still on fire, and the other was pure black. Barry checked the black body. The corpse’s whole face was burned away, with nothing left but a yellow skull. There was a full 9mm magazine in his jacket pocket, so Barry took it. Then he went through the next door and out into the burning lobby. Once the running had passed, Chris went back out into the hallway and followed the men. One of them was walking towards the library, so Chris knocked him out. Then he took the bullets out of the handgun and put them in his pocket. His handgun was the only gun he could carry, since he didn’t have a backpack. He moved into the library and ran up the flight of stairs that led to the balcony. There were many shelves, probably based on past research that had been done. Chris ran over to the nearest door and walked through it. He was now standing behind an Umbrella worker. Chris decided not to make a sound, so he punched the man in the back of the head. “AAAHHH!!!” he screamed as he hit the ground, going unconscious. Suddenly, another man ran into the opening, firing at Chris. He quickly ducked, and then shot the man in the leg. The man stumbled, and then fell to the ground, grabbing his leg. “Bastard,” he muttered. Suddenly, something huge broke through the wall next to him. It was a large mutant wearing a black coat. It’s arms were big and massive, and it’s face was hideous. It grabbed the man by the throat, and ripped his head off. The rest of the body fell to the ground and landed in a pool of blood. The monster threw the head away, and then turned toward Chris. “Ssstarsss,” it clearly said. “What the hell?!” Chris shouted, shooting the monster. But the bullets coming from his handgun were no match for this creature. Why the bullets didn’t even affect the monster’s expression. “So,” Chris said, aiming at the monster’s face. “Umbrella has created a new pet!” He shot the monster in the face, but it still wasn’t enough. Chris backed away, thinking of a plan to stop this monster. Suddenly, the monster swung it’s fist at Chris’ head. Chris ducked just in time, and the monster’s fist broke through the wall. “Suck on this,” he yelled, shooting the monster in the mouth. Suddenly, Chris heard the monster swallow, and then it’s body shook. The monster collapsed to the floor, and some purple liquid poured from it’s mouth. Chris gave a sigh, and then moved through the door at the end of the hall. Barry thought that everything had gone bizarre. The whole lobby was on fire, and a couple of small explosions were appearing. “Where the hell did you guys go?” he muttered. He ran up to the second floor and headed towards the computer lab. But when he got there, Chris and the others were nowhere to be found. The lab was also on fire and was filled with black smoke. Barry turned around and went back out into the lobby. Maybe they went back to Umbrella. He ran down the stairs and left the building. Chris had just encountered another Umbrella worker. The man was pointing a gun at Chris, and his left arm was cut. “What the hell happened to you?” Chris asked the man. “Some damned creature slashed my arm,” he replied. “But why would it matter? You’re going to die anyway.” Chris jumped towards the man and kicked him hard in the face. Then he spun around and kicked the back of his head. The man fell to the ground. “Next time,” Chris said, taking the man’s ammunition. “Be more aware.” The next hallway was dead quiet, which made Chris shiver. There were no sounds, but something made him feel different. Suddenly, a huge monster burst through the ceiling and landed on Chris’ head, knocking him to the ground. “Blasted thing!” Chris shouted, shooting the large creature from the ground. This monster had a large mouth, with large claws. I’ll use a grenade on it. Chris did a backwards somersault and jumped up, pulling a grenade from his pocket. “Suck on this,” he said, throwing the grenade into the creature’s mouth. Chris ducked behind a corner and covered his ears. BOOM!!!! Little pieces of the creature’s body came flying through the air. As he looked around, he noticed that the walls were covered in purple blood. Chris stood up and walked through the bloody hallway. There was a long fat string of something that he couldn’t identify, but when he got a better look at it, he realized that the fat string was part of the creature’s intestines. Gross. Suddenly, another monster burst through the wall. This one was similar to the earlier monster, but it had a smaller mouth and claws. Chris pulled out his handgun and shot the creature in the eyes. It gave a quick scream, and then swung one of its claws. The claw missed Chris’ side, so he kept shooting the creature in the face. After a while, it fell to the ground, but it wasn’t quite dead. “Here’s a little present for you,” he said as he dropped a grenade beside it. Chris bolted through the door, and then heard a big bang. “Something’s wrong!” a voice shouted. “Let’s check it out!” Barry was dead tired. He had walked almost two miles, and it was dark by the time he had reached the building. “I’m finally here,” he said, gasping for breath. Suddenly, the ground rumbled, and Barry fell to the ground. “What the hell?” he said, standing back up once the rumbling had stopped. “It seems to me that something is wrong.” Barry quickly caught his breath, and then ran through the front doors. When he got in, the sound of running footsteps echoed above him. “Hello?” Barry called out. Suddenly, a door down the entrance hall slammed shut. “Is anyone there?” Once Barry turned around, a gun fired. Luckily, the bullet missed him. Barry turned around and saw a man pointing a gun at him. “Don’t move,” the man told him. “Or I’ll fire.” Barry raised his hands. “Why are you doing this?” “You,” the man said. “Are a member of the R.P.D.’s Special Tactics and Rescue Squad. We hate you guys. You are the people who destroyed our mansion! Thanks to you, I can’t live in my house anymore!” “Calm down,” Barry told the man. Chris. Chris had accidentally shot the main generator of the building. “Okay, so maybe we were responsible for the explosion of the Spencer Estate, but it wasn’t our fault that there were samples of the T-Virus stored in there! We, didn’t decide to start a deadly virus that would kill everyone and destroy Raccoon City!” “On second thought,” the man said. “Maybe it wasn’t your fault. But Umbrella hates you guys, and I was loaded with questions. Now, I don’t have a home to go to. I sleep here. I eat here. I do my research here. My whole life is practically run in here! It wasn’t my idea to start this virus. It was Rick’s.” Barry thought that this man knew a lot about what has been going on. “And, where exactly is Rick?” “Oh he was shot in the head,” the man replied. “By some S.T.A.R.S. guy that kept escaping from his cell. When I heard about the news, I thought that this guy would have to be one hell of a smart kid to escape the cells!” Barry knew that this “S.T.A.R.S. guy” was actually one of his best friends. It was Chris, to be exact. But Barry wanted to know more about the viruses. “Do you know anything about the G-Virus. If you do, tell me what it is and who made it.” The man rubbed his chin. “If I can remember clearly, William Birkin created it. You might have met him. He was at the Spencer Estate before it blew up. Anyways, the G-Virus is capable of turning a normal human being into the ultimate bio-weapon. It changes your DNA and your body will mutate into some superhuge mutant.” “Where is this Birkin now?” Barry asked. “He disappeared two days ago. September the twenty-eighth to be exact. His wife Annette had also gone missing. But their daughter has somehow, survived.” Damn! Sherry must still be in the back of Leon’s jeep! Sherry yawned with a start. “Wh-where am I?” She looked around and saw that Claire was sleeping beside her. “Claire!” But Claire was fast asleep. “Even if you can’t hear this, I’m okay! Oh, I’ve missed you so much!” Sherry rested her head down on Claire’s chest and went right back to sleep. “You mean Sherry?” Barry asked. “Yeah,” the man replied. “How’d you know? Wait, don’t tell me. It makes no difference.” “Anyways,” Barry said. “Do you know about any other viruses?” The man stuck the gun in his pocket. “Can I trust you?” Barry nodded. “You can trust me.” “Good,” the man said. “There is one more virus. It has been around for a long time. Longer than you think. But it is a mineral. A deadly mineral to be exact. I don’t quite know the name of it, but one of our workers discovered it.” Suddenly, a knife was thrown at the man. It stabbed him in the neck, and he gasped for breath--a wet sucking sound. Then he fell to the ground and blood poured from his neck. Barry looked around for the killer, but the person had made a clear getaway. Disappointed, he pick up the man’s gun and took out the magazine. Chris had come to a room with four pairs of bunks. Just looking at them made him feel very tired. But he couldn’t sleep. Not until he knew he was safe. But he could not go on until he got some rest. He had been up for about twenty-seven hours. Chris slowly laid down on the bottom bunk and fell fast asleep. Chris’ dream was the same one he had had when he was a little kid. The dream included Claire, his best childhood friend, and his parents. Claire came running into his arms and kept yelling that his best friend had turned into a zombie. Chris ran over to his friend’s house but he couldn’t find him. Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps. Then his friend came into view. His expression was blank, and he was lurching towards Chris. “Hey man,” he said. “It’s me, Chris!” But his friend couldn’t hear him. Chris ran all the way down the street and came to his school. He figured he would be safe in the school’s basement. The basement was dark, and Chris couldn’t see very well. Suddenly, his friend appeared out of nowhere and came towards him. He ran all the way back home, and discovered that smoke was coming from his bedroom window. This is where the dream was different. Chris burst inside and saw that his parents were trapped in a corner. He looked over and saw that the black creature he had encountered earlier was walking towards them. “NO!!!” Chris kept screaming. “NO, NO, NO!!!” The monster suddenly, grabbed his father’s head and twisted it hard enough that it ripped off. Then his mom ran over and started beating on the monster, but it was no use. The monster super punches her and its fist shot right through her chest. “NO!!!!” Chris screamed. Once his mom’s corpse fell to the ground, the monster looked over at Chris, who curled up in a ball and covered his head. The monster would first rip away his arms, then his legs............ Jill grabbed Chris. He was shaking his head and yelling. Suddenly, his eyes shot open. “Chris!” Jill yelled. “What are you doing?” Chris looked around. “Oh, sorry,” he said. “I fell asleep. Aren’t you tired?” Jill nodded. “Yes, I am. But we shouldn’t sleep with all these monsters crawling around. I don’t see how you could fall asleep around here.” “I was very tired,” Chris told her. “But I’m glad to see you. We should bunk here for tonight. Where’s Leon?” Suddenly, the door to the room shut. “Right here,” Leon said, running over. “Barry will be coming shortly. In the meantime, I heard something about crashing here for tonight. Is this true?” Jill nodded. “It sure is.” “Oh good,” Leon said. “I haven’t had any sleep for a day and a half.” The door was opened again, and Barry walked over, closing and locking the door behind him. “Are we going to sleep?” he asked. “We need all the sleep we can get,” Chris told him. Chris pulled off his shirt. Underneath, he was wearing his white muscle shirt. It seemed like he hadn’t gotten any sleep for a long time. He looked over at the others. Barry and Jill were already asleep, and Leon was checking all his guns to see if they needed more ammo. Leon was wearing a white T-shirt with black shorts. As he turned around, Chris noticed that the shirt Leon was wearing had the Boston Bruins logo on the back and on the front. “You like hockey?” Chris asked him. Leon glanced up at him. “Sure do. The Bruins have been my favorite team ever since I was in second grade.” “At least Boston hasn’t been infected,” Chris said. “Yeah,” Leon said, giving a little laugh. “I quite like Toronto,” Chris told him. “They’re pretty good,” Leon said. “Where are you from?” Chris thought of his home in Toronto. It was where he grew up along with Claire. Even though their parents were dead, the two of them still lived there. “Toronto,” he answered. “Toronto, Canada.” Leon nodded, and put all his guns back in his backpack. “Now, how about a little sleep,” Leon said. “Sounds good to me,” Chris said. “Good-night.” Leon walked over and shut the lights off. After making sure the door was locked, he walked over to his bunk and started sleeping. Chris couldn’t sleep. He glanced over at the others. They were all fast asleep. “I’ll be back soon,” he whispered to them. Chris jumped down from his bunk and pulled on his pants. Once his S.T.A.R.S. bullet-proof vest was on, he snatched his handgun and moved out the door, closing it behind him. Chris ran down the hallway and went through a door that led him to another hallway. He went around the first corner, gun ready. The corner was clear, so he ran through the door beside him. The room he was now in had five desks and two filing cabinets. Chris opened the first one and found many files on the research Umbrella has been doing for the past five months. He pulled one out and saw that it was based on the G-Virus. ‘FILE #31 TITLE: G-VIRUS: The G-Virus samples have been retrieved by the only survivor of our U.B.C.S. Platoon A, Squad A. Name: “Hunk.” The recruit has been promoted for retrieving the virus. The G-Virus has been used for the blood of our new creatures. It makes them stronger and more energetic. Its effect on humans is far more powerful than on monsters. Hunk reported that a half human, half monster thing killed all the other soldiers. The area of the unknown creature is still being searched for. The G-Virus is purple liquid that was discovered by Dr. William Birkin. However, Birkin suddenly disappeared two days ago and still hasn’t been found. When the G-Virus is injected into a human’s body, it will rapidly mutate the DNA cells within the blood. The human will then become an ultimate bio-weapon and it would be almost impossible to stop. End of Report.’ Chris stuffed the report in his pocket and left the room. Then he moved through the next door and saw another Umbrella worker. He aimed his handgun at the man’s head, but then he lowered it. The sound would be loud enough to engaged other men. Chris ran over to the man and punched him in the back of the head. He checked the man for and magazines, but the only one he had was the one in his gun and that magazine was half full. “No good,” Chris said, throwing the magazine away. Jill woke up. She must have been sleeping for no longer than an hour. Barry and Leon were still in bed, but Chris was not. “Chris?” she called out. But there was no answer. Jill jumped out of bed and pulled on her pants and T-shirt pads. When she was all dressed, she grabbed her handgun and closed the door behind her. The hallway was quiet. Everyone must have gone to sleep. Unless they couldn’t sleep with all that crap going on around here. She walked down the rest of the hallway and went through the door at the end. Chris had somehow found his way back to the library, which is where he usually went. He moved down the stairs and through the door behind him. Suddenly, a man flew around a corner and rushed past Chris. “Run for your life!” he yelled, slamming the door behind him. Then something big came walking around the corner. It’s that stupid monster in the black suit again. Chris pulled out a grenade and threw it at the large monster. Then he jumped behind a wall. BOOM!!!!! The explosion had created a giant hole in the wall, but there was no sign of the monster. “What the hell?” Chris said, standing up and walking over. There was no blood. “Where did it go?” BOOM!!!!! Barry and Leon were awakened by a blast. “What was that?” Leon asked. Barry jumped out of bed. “I don’t know. And--where the hell are Chris and Jill?” Leon walked over to Jill’s bag. “Her handgun is missing. Aw man, now we have to go look for them!” “No,” Barry said. “We should stay here. That blast couldn’t have been set off by itself. One of them must have done it.” “I guess you’re right,” Leon said, falling back into bed. “Crap,” Chris said. “That blast was loud enough to wake up the others.” He walked through the next door and came to a staircase leading down. At the bottom, three men lay dead on the ground. The smell was horrible. Jeez, dead skunk. And apparently it threw up on itself before dying. Chris walked to the end of the hallway and stopped dead in his tracks. There was a giant cobweb above him, and small eggs were planted ten feet in front of him. “Perfect,” Chris said, aiming his gun at the first egg. Once he shot it, the other eggs split open, and baby maggots fell out. Only these maggots were bigger that the ones in real life. Snap out of it. This is “real life” now. He quickly killed them, and entered the room at the end. The room was covered in hard web and plants that were attached to the wall. As Chris looked in front of him, he saw something that couldn’t be real. A giant moth. “Holy crap!” he yelled, firing at the stupid thing. The moth retaliated and climbed up onto the ceiling. Then it released some sort of acid. Chris jumped away, and the acid burned the ground. A couple more shots, and the creature was dead. Once it had stopped moving, he walked over to the giant moth and examined it. “Umbrella has gone too far with their “pets,” Chris said. There was a computer in the far corner. He walked over and turned the screen on. Suddenly, the screen shut off and the monitor blew up. Chris jumped back and watched as the fire started to spread. Get the hell out of here! He bolted through the door and ran down the hall as fast as he could. Suddenly, smoke started coming out into the hallway. Chris quickly moved through a door and came to a hallway with five zombies. Since Chris had the best aim on S.T.A.R.S., he shot them all in the head and continued down the hallway. Jill was moving as fast as she could. There had been a blast before that had kept her up for the last half-hour, but she was basically tired. I must get some sleep. Besides, I’m sure Chris is okay. He usually is. Chris was in a storage room. There was nothing suspicious. Suddenly, two arms tried to grab him as he came around the corner of a shelf. Chris rolled past the zombie and shot it in the back of the head. “I didn’t expect zombies to come here,” he said. The next door led to another hallway. The hallway was long and had one turn. Chris ran down to the end, but this door was protected by four red lasers. “Why would the company block off this door?” Chris asked himself. As he turned the other way, he noticed that the opposite door had been covered with steel and four lasers. “Great. Now how do I get out?” Claire suddenly woke up. “Wh-where am I?” Something heavy was on her stomach. As she sat up, she noticed the person’s face. “Sherry!” Sherry was sleeping. “I’m sorry to leave you sweetie, but I have to go now.” Claire gently lifted Sherry’s head up and then pulled the rest of her body up on the seat. “I’ll see you later.” Jill had returned to the bunkroom. The noise from the door had woken Leon up. “Where’d ya go?” he asked. “I went to look for Chris,” she replied. Leon jumped up. “Did you find him?” Jill shook her head. “No.” Leon ran over and pulled his jeans up. “I’m going to look for him. You stay here and get some sleep.” Jill gave a quick nod, and then took her boots off. Leon closed the door and ran down the hallway. Chris could be anywhere. And what about Claire? I wonder how she got out of the police station. This is getting out of hand. Leon pulled out his shotgun and moved through the next door. Hey, if Chris is here, where’s my jeep?! He decided he would look for his jeep before he looked for Chris. Leon ran down some stairs through the next hallway and found himself in the entrance hall. Outside, his jeep was parked over to the side of the building. Leon gave a quick sigh, and then ran back in to look for Chris. Chris was trapped. There was no escape. He would sit in the hallway and die. He knew it. Suddenly, a huge monster broke through the wall. It was the one wearing the black suit. “That grenade should’ve killed you,” Chris said, firing at the monster’s face. But the bullets didn’t seem to affect it. The monster just kept on coming and coming....... Suddenly, the monster stopped and pulled something out of it’s suit. A rocket launcher! “Oh, crap,” Chris said, backing away. The monster fired, and Chris ducked just before the rocket hit him. BOOM!!!!! Chris looked behind him. The rocket had hit the steel, and the lasers blew up, creating a wall of fire. Chris ran past the monster and jumped around the corner. Suddenly, the huge wall of fire blew on the corner wall and burned it to crisp. Chris peered around the corner. The whole hallway was black and covered in ashes with small flames. “Whoa,” he said, looking around for the monster. But the darn thing had disappeared again. “Where the hell is that sucker?!” Chris yelled. Instantly, he ran over to the steel covered door, but it seemed to be bolted to the wall. That was only one way he could go. There was an opening in the wall where the monster had broken through. Snickering, he ran through and looked around at the wide monitor room. There were ten computers above a wide panel, and a metal door on the opposite wall. Chris walked over to the monitors. Each of them showed different parts of the basement. Monitors 3, 5, 6, and 8 were broken, but the rest of them worked. He watched as the screens kept moving back and forth. Suddenly, a door shown on monitor number 2 broke open, and three zombies lurched threw. Then another door shown on monitor 4 broke open, revealing five zombies. “Crap, how’d they get in?” Chris asked. BAM!!!! He spun around. The metal door had somehow obtained a dent. And then another appeared. And another. Uh oh. Then the metal door fell apart, and three zombies slid towards Chris. BANG!!! BANG!!! three shots killed the first zombie. He continued to fire, but his gun eventually started clicking. Then the magazine fell out, and Chris slapped another one in. BANG!!! BANG!!! The other two zombies fell. “That was impossible!” Chris shouted. “They couldn’t have gotten through that metal door.” But it was possible. Zombies could brake through most things except for walls and steel objects. Plus, they couldn’t climb up stairs. Chris ran through the place where the metal door once stood and continued down the hallway. Leon was trapped in a corner. Nemesis was closing in on him, and there were no other doors in the room. “You want a piece of me?” he asked. “Well come and get it!” Leon pulled out his AR33. Tattatattatattatatta......... Nemesis stumbled back, but kept on coming. Click! Click! The AR33 had run out of ammo, and there was no time to reload it. Nemesis swung its big, massive arm. Leon rolled underneath and bolted for the door. Once he was out, he slammed the door and stuck something heavy in front of it. BAM!!! Nemesis had rammed the door, but it was no use. The ramming eventually stopped, and Leon gave a sigh once it did. “Close,” he said, reloading his AR33. The next hallway led to some stairs going down. Once he reached the bottom, two zombies came towards him. Tattatattatattatattatatta........ The zombies fell forward, and they twitched until all their blood was out. “I think I’ve seen enough blood,” Leon said, jumping over the pool of red liquid. Chris had reached the cells again. “I can’t even remember how many times I’ve seen these!” he yelled with a laugh. “It seems I like to come here a lot.” They were so easy to escape. When he was locked up, he got away at least three times. The guard had fallen for his tricks. What a loser! Chris walked through the door at the end and came to a hallway that led to the basement lab. There were some lockers in the first room that led connected with the lab. Chris opened the first one and found some sort of gun. He got a better look at it when he picked it up. “A magnum!” he exclaimed. “This could be useful.” Carlos was looking around the outside of the building when he spotted someone suspicious. A man in a trenchcoat? I’ve seen someone like that. “Mr. Oliveara!” the man yelled with surprise. “How good to see you again!” Carlos ran over. “T-Trent?” The man took off his hat. “Did my information help you in any way?” Carlos nodded. “It sure did!” Trent smiled. “That’s good to hear. But I have some more information to give you.” Chris had found three magnum magazines in the next locker. “This is all luck!” he shouted with glee. He stuck his handgun in his pocket and slapped a magazine in the magnum. Then he went into the lab. As soon as Chris entered, a zombie reached for him. Chris fired, and the zombie’s head blew into pieces, and blood splattered all over the wall. “Whoa,” he said in a surprised tone. “This thing is powerful!” Just then, another zombie moaned at him. Chris faced the walking dead and shot it in the waist. It’s upper torso fell backward, and then crawled towards him. He walked over and stepped on its head, which gushed under his boot. Then he shot the other two zombies in the head. Once they had fallen down, he walked over to a computer and switched it on. “Umbrella’s files,” Chris said. “I wonder what I’ll find........” Claire was in the large library. “Okay,” she said. “I found my way here, now how do I get out?!” The library was big. Too big. Big enough for someone to get lost. She walked over to the stairs in the middle of the library and climbed up. At the top, she looked over the edge of the balcony. “I can see at least two doors,” Claire muttered. “And I came from the one over in the far right corner.” She ran back down to the bottom floor and made her way over to the door she hadn’t been through. The hallway was cold, probably because she was wearing a T-shirt and shorts. She had given her dark pink vest to Sherry. There was a headless body on the ground, and a large hole in the ceiling. Claire walked around the headless body and made her way to the door at the end. Leon had found a dead giant moth in a room that had burned up. A blown-up computer lay in the corner of the room but other than that, the room was trashed. He walked back out into the hallway and moved over to the next door. But this door stuck. Leon stepped back and rammed into it, but it still didn’t budge. “Darn,” he said, walking back down the T shaped hallway. There was one more door next to the stairs. Leon ran over and kicked it open. This hallway led to another door, which also didn’t open. On his way back to the stairs, he noticed an opening in the wall next to him. A dented metal door lay inside the room. Curious, Leon stepped in and looked around. The room had ten monitors in the corner, and a large opening in the wall to his left. He walked over to the monitors and watched monitor number 1. Suddenly, Chris ran into view and a bullet barely missed his head. Chris ran through the door next to him. Once the door shut, a man wearing sunglasses came into view. The man had dirty blond hair and was wearing a black suit with a bullet-proof vest tucked underneath. Leon noticed that the little badge on his sleeve. S.T.A.R.S. “Who the hell is this guy?” he asked himself. Suddenly, Chris came into view again on monitor 2, which displayed a large room. Then the man with the black suit jumped on Chris. Chris rolled onto his side. “Why do you want me dead?!” he yelled. Wesker kicked Chris in the back. “Because you know too much,” he replied. “You know too much about what’s going on.” Chris jumped up and kneed Wesker in the gut. “Your plan to kill me will not succeed!” But Wesker recovered quickly and super punched Chris in the face, which sent him flying to the other side of the room. Chris lay on the ground, feeling dizzy. “You’re getting weaker every time I hit you!” Wesker spat. Chris looked over and saw a chair. In an instant, he ran over and threw it at Wesker. The chair missed Wesker’s head, and the next thing Chris knew, he was laying on the ground with a sharp pain in the side of his head. “I’m just too fast for you,” Wesker laughed. Chris touched the side of his head. It was bleeding. Wesker was winning, and he did not know how to stop him. Suddenly, two monsters fell through the ceiling. The first monster was the one with the black suit, and the second monster had green skin. Wesker glanced at the monsters and smiled. “I see you’ve met Nemesis,” he said, looking at the monster with the black suit. “And Hunter. Gotta go!” Wesker ran out of the door and locked it behind him, leaving poor Chris with the two monsters. “Sssstaarrrssss,” Nemesis clearly said. It was over. Chris would be killed by these monsters............ TO BE CONTINUED Will Chris be destroyed by Nemesis and Hunter? Can Leon find someway to help? And what important information does Trent have to give Carlos? You can find out these answers by reading RESIDENT EVIL 4: The Strike Back
