Resident Evil:Another Story
By:Zevon
"Most people never think of what they'd
do if they were forced to leave their home
town due to some horrific incident. Some
don't even think it possible outside of war.
It's scary, what scientist could do that could
endanger the entire world. The citizens of Raccoon
City had to witness this horror to it's fullest extent"
The rest of the memo is stained in blood.
1998. September 28th. Raccoon City. A man by the name of Tony, age 21, sat at the bus stop waiting. He had a light brown leather jacket over his black short sleeved T-shirt and wore black pants. Tony had just gotten to the bus stop from working at his job a the Apple Inn Hotel. For some weird reason most of his co-workers didn't come to work. Not many customers came either though, which Tony felt was a good thing. He only worked to pay his way through college and no mater how many customers came he still had the same salary.
"Hey Sir, has the bus come yet?" a man dressed in a black business suit asked..
"I wouldn't know, I just got here, though i thought i was late. I guess I was wrong" Tony replied as he started to look at his watch.
About 30 minutes later a loud honk and car crashes could be heard from a short distance, but not just one. It seemed that something big was plowing through the cars of the street
"What the hell?"
Tony barely got the words out before the bright headlights of the bus could be seen heading right towards him. Tony jumped off the bench he had been sitting on just before the bus collided with it and crashed into the building behind him. The man who had asked him if the bus had come wasn't as fortunate and was killed instantly by the bus.
Tony ran to the windows on the bus, that happened to be covered in blood and started hitting it with his fist. "What the hell is wrong with you! You just killed someone!"
An eerie silence came and Tony struggled to see the driver through the blood on the window. The task was impossible due to how much there was. Also, it was not only one window but every window on the bus was dripping with blood. The weird part about it was, it was from the inside. After knocking on the window a couple more times, he ran around to the door and stared yelling.
"Hey idiot! You just killed someone! What's your fucking problem!...Answer me!"
A strange noise could be heard from inside and t sounded like the driver had finally heard him. On the other side of the bus glass breaking could be heard, but Tony kept his attention on the door of the bus. A strange gushing noise could be heard. Like someone was bitting into a juicy pear. All of a sudden the door started shaking violently as if someone was trying to break it down.
"What the?...Open the door!"
Tony stared curiously at the door then made his worst mistake. He shot his foot out kicking the door. The glass cracked, but still the door stayed in tack. He tried one more time breaking the door causing it to crash inside the bus, but to Tony's surprise the door had been knocked right back out towards him. A stench came with the opening of the door. A disgusting stench that almost caused him to throw up.
"What is wrong with you? You just killed a-"
For the first time that day Tony felt speechless and horrified as he got his first sight of who, or what, he had been shouting at. A big group of people with flesh missing and peeling off their body's. All of them had blood all over their clothes and their mouths.
"Wha-whats going on? Get away!"
Tony started to back away slowly until he bumped into someone. Tony turned around and the man, no zombie lunged towards. Tony ducked out of the way causing the zombie to fall over him. Noticing that he was surrounded by zombies, Tony turned towards the street and ran as fast as he could. From everywhere in the city Tony could hear the moans and groans of the zombies.
As he ran Tony tripped over something and fell scrapping his face on the cement ground. A huge scratch filled with blood came on his right cheek from the fall. Tony turned around to see what he had fell on and noticed a police officer leaning against a wall while sitting down. Tony crawled over to the officer and tried to look into the officer's eye's to see if he was still woke, or still alive.
"Are you ok?"
The officer did not answer and just sat there as if he was dead. Tony reached his hand out and started to tilt the officer's head up. Quickly he jumped away as he noticed a huge gap full of blood in the officer's neck. The gap had teeth marks all around it.
He's dead...whats going on with this city... Tony thought to himself.
Suddenly something caught his eye. Grasped in the officer's hand was a 9mm Handgun. Tony attempted to grab the gun out of the officers hand, but the moment he touched it the officers hand gripped it tight. Tony looked up to the officer's face and saw a big change. The officer's skin looked old and it seemed it was withering away.
The officer quickly lunged at Tony knocking Tony on his back and started to snap violently towards Tony's neck. Tony struggled, trying to keep the officer's head away from him. It wasn't easy keeping the blood hungry officer from bitting Tony but he managed to push to zombie off to the left side of him. Tony jumped to his feet quickly facing the zombie officer who was now trying to stand to his feet.
"Ge-Ge-Get the hell away from me!"
The officer showed no notice that he heard the warning and was now on his feet walking towards Tony. Tony looked around in a panic and noticed the handgun that the officer had dropped on the ground. The zombiefied officer showed no care for it even though it was sitting right near his foot and it would almost certainly kill him faster than any bite. At least thats what Tony thought. Tony dived towards the gun seeing that gun as his only hope.
Quickly he snatched the gun up and managed to swing his foot around knocking the zombie off it's feet. Tony aimed the gun towards the zombie's head in an attempt to scare the zombie away.
"S-Stop! I have the gun!...I'll shoot dammit!"
The officer once again showed no sign that i heard, or cared about, what Tony said. Tony backed away a little bit and shot a warning shot right near the zombie's foot. It still kept approaching. Tony adjusted his aim and shot a bullet right to the zombie's skull.
"My God!"
Tony watched as the officer laid there, blood dripping from the zombie's body. In just a few seconds a police car pulled up right next to Tony and the officer inside rolled down the window.
"Get in! Hurry! The whole damn city's infested!"
Tony rushed towards the car door with relief showing in his eye's, but this was wiped away as the officer locked to the door as soon as Tony made it there. All of the officer's focus seemed to be on Tony's right cheek. The one with the huge scar on it from his fall. Tony gave the officer a confused look then turned around him. Out of the ally zombies started limping towards him.
"Open the door! Hurry up!"
Tony pulled at the car-door handle, yanking it back and forth almost tearing it off the car. The officer looked away from Tony in a weird, but sympathetic way. Tony turned around again and noticed the zombies getting closer. Tony backed up some and lunged his foot at the car window, cracking it a little bit. The officer looked back towards Tony and started to speak.
"You infected; I'm sorry but i can't take you with me"
With that the car pulled off at full speed down the street.
"Infected? No, how is that possible?"
With a flash in Tony's mind he started to remember how every zombie came at him. Each one he encountered tried to bite him in some way. Also, the bite mark on the officer's neck right before he turned to a zombie fit with the theory that the zombies must infect others by biting. Tony slowly put his hand to his cheek and remembered that he hadn't got that injury from being bitten.
"Wait! Officer! I wasn't bitten! I fell!"
It had been to late though. The police officer had already driven to far away to hear.
