I was sitting outside of a mansion huddled on the ground trying to keep warm. I had knocked about ten times within the hour and no one came out. I was wearing a black baggy shirt with one shoulder on my shoulder and the other hanging on my forearm. I was also wearing faded ripped blue jeans and black and white sneakers. My mom and dad had kicked me out of the house because I had been arrested again for 'recless driving', okay, I'm not going to lie, I love racing and it so happens that a few of my friends and I were really compeditive. Anyway, I had been arrested for the fourth time this year and my mom said that she was through bailing me and it was time to find a new place to live. I had been walking awhile and needed a place to stay.

The door suddenly opened and a female with short blond hair in a red dress and black boots came outside. She was staring out at the dark sky and trees. I stood up and she jumped back startled.

"Uh, sorry, I um needed a...you see my mom kicked me out and..." I really hated ask favors of people I didn't know so this was awkward for me.

"You need a place to stay?" She offered.

"Uh..yea." I sighed.

"Okay, come on.." Suddenly the birds started to caw and fly away, frightining her and myself. She grabbed my hand and darted back torwards the house. Suddenly an arm wrapped around my waist and an arm wrapped around the other girls waist and we were pulled into the house, the girl started to scream

"Let go!"

We fell back onto the floor. The windows shattered and men in black suits came inside. They held down the man that got us back inside and a man held the lady and demanding her to 'report'. A man came and held me down. They started taking off their masks.

"I'm a cop! My name is Matthew Addison!"

"I'm not getting a match." A female said.

"I just tranfered they probably dont have me on file yet!"

"The locals are inefficient. It's possible." Another male said.

"What about this one?" A man said jossling me.

"Should I secure them here?" The female asked the captain.

"No. We take them with us."

"Who are you?" One asked me.

"I, I uh, my name is Hermione Shawns." My English accent was heavily laced through my words. The captain nodded. He was a tall black man with big brown eyes. The cop, Matthew, was struggling against the woman.

"You can't do this!"

"Blow me." I laughed out loud and she glared at me.

"What are you laughing at?" She snapped and I closed my trap. They helped us up off of our knees and made us walk to the other side of the room and in a elevator. The female lady that let me in the mansion turned to me and held out her hand.

"I'm Alice." I shook her hand.

"Hermione, it's nice to meet you." She nodded and the elevator doors opened and the three of us were pushed out. We walked down some stone steps and came to a large room. There was a train and we all got on it.

"Prep for entry to the Hive." The captain said.

"Power's down."

" So fix it."

"I'm on it." The female jumped down and started to fix the train. She was down there a while and a guy, I think his name was JR layed down on his stomach and was checking on her. I heard someone call her Rain.

"Are you done yet?" I heard Rain gasp and JR laugh.

"Jumpy!" Then JR jumped back up as the train started. Rain came up and started working on a door on the other side of the compartment.

"How's that door?" JR asked.

"Sealed shut."

"Let me." JR walked over to the door as Rain smirked and made a gesture to the door while stepping asside.

JR got the door open and a man fell out making JR yell and jump too the side. Rain smirked.

"Jumpy!" I stifled a laugh and fingered my long curly bronze colored hair. The female medic went over to the man lying on the ground and pulled out a small flash light, shinning it in his eyes and he started resisting.

"Lie still." He moved around more.

"Lie still!" He calmed down and he fallowed the light when medic told him to.

"How many fingers am I holding up?"

" Three."

"Good, ow tell me your name."

"I don't remember."

"He's fine, memory loss, just like the other one."

We soon were off the train and walked to a metal door.

"Let's open that door."

Alice walked up to the captain.

" Alright, I wanna know who you people are and what's going on here." The captain just looked away from her and Alice grabbed a hold of him. "NOW." The captain sighed and backed away from her.

"You and I have the same employer. We work for the Umbrella mansion above is an emergency entance to the were security operatives placed three to protect that entrance." Alice fingered her gold ring.

"What about this?"

"Your marrige is a fake, part of the cover story to protect the secret of the Hive."

"And what is the Hive?" I asked getting curious. The captain didn't seem to want to answer.

"Answer her." Alice demanded.

"Show them." Kaplain pulled out a black laptop and showed us a blue print of the mansion and a bee hive like structure underneath it.

" The mansion, where we found you and gained access to the train...which, in turn,brought us to the Hive. The Hive is located underground...deep beneath the streets of Raccoon City. A secret research facility owned and operated by the Umbrella Corporation...The Hive houses over 500 technicians, scientists and support live and work underground. Their research is of the highest nature is classified. Our position on the map is indicated by heat signature."

" Why can't I remember anyting?" Alice asked.

"The Hive has its own defense mechanisms, all computer-controlled. A nerve gas was released into the effect of the gas:Complete unconsciousness lasting up to four hours. Secondary effects can include acute memory loss."

"- For how long?"

"- Subjective. An hour, day, week."

"So this place was attacked?" I asked.

"Well, it's a little more...complicated than that." Rain came down the steps and removed her helmet.

"Sir, we've breached the hive."

We walked to a dark room and stopped.

"JD." JD walked past us and into the room. He walked around a bit before turning on the lights.

"I got it."
