Chapter 1: Intro

The little girl around the age of seven of seven, with dark brown hair framing her jaw bone and bright green eyes. Her skin is as pale as snow, and her grey dress with front pockets is torn. She walks slowly down the sterile white hallway with blood splatters here and there on the walls and floors. Her left hand trails along the wall as she walks one foot in front of the other. She is confused, curious of all the blood around her, but calm.

She doesn't wander why she is all alone. She doesn't wander where her family is. She's never had a family. She doesn't know what a family is. In fact, she can't remember anything from her past. Not even what happened two minutes ago. All she knows is that she is supposed to walk down the hall.

Her bare feet make small tapping sounds as she walks. Suddenly she hears a males voice. Maybe he can help her with her curiosity.

"Come closer," the man whispers. His voice his so soft she barely hears him. "Closer."

Closer she treks. Her voice is soft and innocent as she calls back to him. "Hello? Can you help me?"

"Come closer," he responds.

"I'm coming!" She picks up her pace and jogs to the end of the hall. What she sees horrifies her to a stop. A large creature, missing skin and is shaped like a stretched dog is bent over a woman's mutilated body, tearing into her flesh and devouring it. The sickening sounds coming from this beast's throat, and the sound of the woman's flesh tearing makes her stomach to flips.

She gasps and takes a step back as the thing realizes there is new meat in the room and sees the young girl. It growls and throws its meal to the side. Stalking forward, with its intention to kill and feast, it snaps its jaws at the girl, making her whimper. The creature has no eyes, but its brain is in full view. As if sensing what the creature is thinking, she takes off down the hall she came from.

The things claws click on the ground as it bounds after her. She is terrified and doesn't know what to do.

"Mister, mister, are you there? Help me!" She screams. The beast behind her jumps onto the wall and catches up to her.

"Stop running, you stupid girl," the man in her head hisses. "Turn around and fight it!"

The thing leaps down and misses her by an inch. She whimpers and with strength she didn't know she had, she knocked the thing to the side as it mad another attack on her.

"What do I do?" She asks desperately. The man answers with one simple word. A word that she knows she must obey without concern or question.

"Kill."

The girl reaches forward and grasps the thing by the neck. It squirms in her grip, somehow not being able to get away. She brings her other hand up, and coldly rips the things head from its shoulders.

Leon Scott Kennedy bolts up in his bed. He is covered in sweat and breathing hard. He'd had many dreams like this one, but they all revolved around someone he knew. He didn't know who this little girl was. It bothers him but he lets it go. It's just a dream, and besides, if the girl was real, she'd had a virus inside of her. Which means she is a monster and nothing can be done for her.

He looks over at the clock on his bedside table and sees that it's only 4:30 a.m. He doesn't have to be up for another two hours and thirty minutes, so he lays back down. No matter how hard he tries though, he cannot go back to sleep. His mind continues to wander off to the unknown little girl. After an hour of laying wide awake, he gets up and gets ready for the day.

AN: So, how do you like this? Was it okay? Please let me know, and I am also up for suggestions!

Question of the day; what do you think the little girls role in this story is, and what does she mean to Leon?
