Deep beneath the city lies Umbrella's lab. William Birkin is one of the head scientists working there developing viral weaponry. Footsteps could be heard running towards his lab, footsteps of the Umbrella squad coming to take the virus away.
"They're coming for this," he said into a microphone attached to his computer.
The screen showed a man hidden in shadows. His hair, slightly visible, was slicked back and blonde, and he wore sunglasses. "What do you want me to do?"
"How can I get out of here?" Birkin asked. "You know everything about these labs."
"I can't help you," the man on the monitor said. "Handle this yourself."
The monitor had a flicker and then shut off. "Damn you Wesker."
The door flung open and soldiers ran in. "Give us the virus."
"I will never give it to Umbrella!" Birkin yelled. "My virus will help cure the weak!" Birkin reached into his lab coat and pulled out a handgun.
Shots fired from the soldiers' automatic rifles. Birkin fell onto the ground, the vials of the virus shattered into tiny peaces spilling onto the floor. The soldiers walked to Birkin's body, looking at the virus.
"Shit, it's all spilled."
As soon as the soldiers left, Birkin opened his hand holding the last of the vials. "You'll never get out of here," he muttered. He picked up a syringe and sucked out the virus with it. Then he stuck it into his arm and injected. "I won't let you…"
Rats started swarming to the smell. They started drinking the virus off the floor. The rats started shaking, seizures have seized them. Their teeth grew longer and their eyes turned pale. They all let out a high pitched scream.

"What was that?" one of the soldiers yelled. He pointed his gun back the way they'd came.
"Don't worry about it. As soon as we get back to the helicopter we'll call the cleanup crew."
Something large ran passed their flashlights and out of sight. "Did you see that?"
"What now?"
"Hunk," the one called on his radio.
"Hunk here," the radio responded.
"Did you find a sample in your part of the lab?"
"I just found a vial, the rest was missing."
"All we have to do now is get back to the chopper."
A monster ran out from the shadows, the soldiers started firing. "What is that!?"
"Come in," Hunk said. "What was all that firing? I'll have to finish my mission without them. Even if they're alive, they're dead."
