Horror Survival

Authors note: this will be my first ever crossover fanfic between two games I love; Silent Hill 3 and Resident Evil: code Veronica. I hope all goes well and I make an interesting plotline for the combination of the two. All rights go to Shinji Makami and Capcom, creators of resident evil and Akira Yamaoka and Konami, creators of Silent Hill.

Prologue

On Rockfort Island the sound of machine guns blasting away seemed but only a whisper among the amount of moans and growls that emerged from the dark. Steve Burnside, a prisoner on the virus infected island, had just finished off the last zombie as he cleared a path for his new found comrade Claire Redfield.

"It was dirty work, but this area is now clean." He boasted as she walked up the steps and saw him standing there with a cocky smile on his face, reloading his dual machine guns.

"See, you can depend on me." He said still trying to prove that he could be a big help; she just continued to stand in silence looking everywhere but at him.

"You see, this thing is a lot more reliable than any person." He remarked about his guns before pointing them to the side, the sound of them clicking echoed off the walls. Claire looked at him with disbelief as she couldn't understand why he'd say such a thing.

"Than people?" she questioned, hitting a painful spot in the young man's memories and causing him to retaliate in defence. He turned his back, afraid to look in her eyes.

"Steve, what were you doing here? Who brought you here and where is your family?" she continued to ask when she saw him heading away. He stopped in his tracks, unable to ignore the pain he felt.

"Shut up! I don't want to talk about it!" he yelled before firing his machine gun off to the barren side of the walkway, the loud volume of sound causing Claire to cover her ears.

"Steve..." she said sympathetically when the firing stopped and he lowered both his arm and head.

"Never mind... let's get going." He said with anger in his tone as he walked towards the door ahead of them, Claire looking on with concern before following after him. Little did they know that someone had been watching them this entire time. Albert Wesker had managed to hack into Alfred's security cameras through his own super computer, hidden away in an underground facility in a remote location. Wesker wasn't at the computer physically due to the fact that he had business to attend to on the prison island, but he could watch what it recorded and control its functions through a mini palm device.

"They've managed to overcome all the obstacles this island has to offer so far. If this continues I may have to intervene, lest I have my plans foiled by Chris' irritating sister and that prison bait of a teenager." He said as he stood on the steps of the Ashford mansion built especially to accommodate Alfred's needs. Wesker had ventured here in search of Alexia's body, hoping to extract the far more potent T-Veronica virus so he could use it in furthering his research. Just as he was about to turn off the tiny device, the screen flickered and his finger paused in its place as a new environment popped up before his eyes.

He saw a teenage girl no more than 17 in a white, bloodstained vest and green skirt. Her short hair was obviously a dyed blonde due to the brown roots that had started to show; her expression was one of worry and unease as she held a filthy steel pipe close to herself. Her flashlight was her only guide as she cautiously walked through the dark environment, rust and blood covered walls surrounding her.

"What is this? No place like this exists on earth; I have ventured to every corner in search of virus samples and have never seen such a hellish environment." He said to himself and then a thought had dawned on him. While he had always done experiments and research in viral production, he also had a side project; the research of other dimensions. It was said by many different philosophers that there could very well be several other dimensions besides planet earth that existed all around us, but the only way you could get to them was if you opened their doors; in other words create a device that could unlock that dimension. The evil man chuckled as he already knew of a device that could do just that; he had built it himself but had yet to test it, and what better test subject than your rivals family.

"I already know where those two are headed, now it's all a matter of locking onto their location." He said as he pressed several buttons accessing the machine from where he stood. At his underground lab it lit up as its engines whirred to a start.

"Now I lock onto this dimension the blonde girl is in and configure her location. With all the subjects locked into the system I merely have to fire the pulse that will teleport them, atoms and all. Oh while I'm at it I might as well teleport their guns to an unknown dimension." He said as he keyed in all his desired actions. Once the screen flashed ready, he hit the enter key; a shockwave being sent throughout the globe.

"Good riddance to bad rubbish." He said a deep chuckle following the remark.

Back inside the prison facility Claire had just caught up with Steve on the board walk, his figure just standing and waiting. She stopped and faced him about to say something when she heard a groan from the wooden board they were standing on. It was too old and decayed to support both of them and it broke away, sending both them and the shattered pieces plummeting to the ground. But before the pair could touch down they vanished into thin air, a static discharge appearing and disappearing in only seconds.

In Silent Hill, Heather was currently in the hospital trying to figure out the next screwy puzzle she was meant to solve. Down the hall she noticed a monster that looked different from the others turning valves on the wall; it didn't seem to notice her presence yet. She took the opportunity and snuck up behind it figuring it would be better if she attacked it before it came after her. The steel pipe rose above her head and she swung it down with al her strength and just as it made contact with the monsters skull, the both of them vanished as electricity surrounded them.

Claire and Steve groaned as they woke up, their heads feeling like a bowl of jello. They looked around and immediately noticed that something wasn't right; they were in a restaurant with other people sitting in nearby tables. The shutters were half closed casting a red light across the room, the shadows of cars passing by outside danced across the table. They stood up cautiously and slowly went out what looked the entrance. Claire turned around and looked up at the sign on the front of the small establishment; it read 'Happy Burger.'

"Happy Burger?" she said aloud as she took in the rest of the environment and realised right away that they had somehow ended up in a mall.

"Just where the hell are we?" Steve said as they both tried to get a grasp of what happened, none of what was taking place made sense.

The static electricity appeared and left in a bright flash leaving its two passengers behind in the dark and cold room. Heather had landed hard on her bottom, wincing as she got to her feet. The electricity had turned her flashlight off but luckily it wasn't broken; she turned it on to figure out just where she had ended up. In front of her were bars, the type you'd only find on a prison cell and that's exactly what she was in. Her hands gripped the cool steel of the bars and she tried to open the door even though she knew it was no use. A figure stood up on the other side of the bars quickly and Cheryl's heart almost leapt out of her chest. When she caught her breath she realised that this creature was the one she was about to bludgeon only a few minutes ago.

"Just great, it followed me here. Or maybe..." it looked in her direction with nonexistent eyes seeming just as confused as her.

"Did you lock me in here?" She all but yelled causing the creature in the red robe to flinch.

'Better yet where is here?' she pondered. A shuffle on the other side of the room caught both their attention. The monster scrambled up the wall and out of harm's way leaving Heather by herself in the cold of the cell; whatever was in the room was most likely not friendly. Her hand shaking, she pulled the flashlight out of her vest pocket and prepared to shine it into the dark.

Wesker watched the small screen as both parties fell into the new environments; the utter confusion on their faces was enough to make him grin.

"This is just too perfect. If where Claire has ended up really is hell then she'll be gone and forgotten in no time; especially without weapons. It appears both the groups have been sent to the beginning of each areas journey, so it will be a while till that strange blonde girl reaches this mansion." He said to himself pacing back and forth.

"The only way either of the groups will be sent back to their respective locations is if they reach the goal of the journey, or one of them dies." He said with a chuckle before turning off the palm pilot and resting it snugly in his pocket. Using his inhuman virus powers he leapt up onto the gate wall, the shadow of clouds covering the moon allowed his red eyes to flash behind his dark glasses.

"Things are about to get very interesting." He finished before leaping down over the other side and vanishing amongst the rambling undead.

This is the prologue to a new type of genre I'm trying; game universe crossovers and it will also be my first multi chapter fic (what no one-shot Silver? 0_0) you bet. I hope the first part captures everyone's interest enough so that I can be inspired by reviews to make more chapters. I love Val/ Heather and Steve/Claire so I hope this will satisfy both those needs if you like them too; More to come soon, P.S for the first part where Claire and Steve are talking I had to go back and watch that cut scene, I think I nailed the lines. Reviews are much appreciated.
