She had paced thoroughly through the wasted dreams, which perched like willows, on either side of her. Drowning in sand and burning in the sunlight, Las Vegas has succumbed to its inevitable end – all due to the ever-growing virus that tortured earth: the T-Virus. Her story had begun in Racoon City, her birthplace, her beginning… her home. Since the outbreak, Alice has adapted both physically and mentally – in some cases, not for the better. But it was the cries she had suffered to listen to from her allies that kept her drive pumping, her mind-set focused and her will to defeat Umbrella at its peak. However, despite her determination, Alice was still young. Her biggest fears were yet to arise from the limbo she roamed freely in…

Wesker was right but wrong at the same time. His intentions were questionable but his attempts were devil-like. Alice had a devil on either shoulder.
As Alice rushed to conclude a plausible way to get out of the warehouse (With her companions – alive), two helpless souls paraded their hands against glass that would never shatter. Ben and Ashleigh, two young survivors who had met Alice only three days prior to this moment, both knew deep down it was the end for both of them – yet either one continued to struggle. Both trapped in the Testing Room, the G-Virus was moments away from being injected like gas into the room, completing Wesker's experiments. Alice and the antagonist watched the balcony, lifted above the testing chamber, with a view over the whole lab warehouse – a futuristic building where experiments has taken place since the devastation of Racoon City.
Alice had tried to keep Ben and Ashleigh safe. She had failed. A reminisce memory slipped through in the back of Alice's mind. She remembered it all so well, beginning with
