Prologue

In May of 1975, two children were born into the proud and rich Spencer family. The Spencers, along with the insane masterminds behind the Ashford Family, founded Umbrella during the early stages of World War 2 as a pharmaceutical supplier. Although this was partially true, the future of Umbrella was dark and deadly…

With the creation of bio-weaponry and the experimentation with devastating viruses, Umbrella was put on a high pedestal by the United States government. Their research on the experimental T Virus would prove valuable, but to continue their experiments Umbrella needed a place to call their own…

Raccoon City was soon contaminated with the deadly virus, and everyone inhabiting the city contracted the virus. All the citizens slowly deteriorated to mindless carriers, feeding off the flesh of the living. Raccoon City's own Special Tactics and Rescue Squad was no help…

On the morning of October 1st 1998, Raccoon City was decimated. The United States government ordered a nuclear warhead to directly penetrate the city. Everything and everyone, including the virus research, was destroyed. But Umbrella wasn't finished yet…

Leon's cell phone ran non stop. He wasn't expecting any calls…after surviving the Raccoon City massacre Umbrella had been hunting him. Even hearing a slight fraction of his voice would allow them to track him and take him to one of the prisons that Claire went to…he'd lost contact with her and Sherry…

It had been about three or four months since Raccoon City was supposedly destroyed. The government had ordered its annihilation. He just wished that somehow Umbrella could have gone with it…but the only thing they suffered was a stock-price-drop. Leon wished that somehow he could make Umbrella pay for the hundreds of thousands of lives lost in Raccoon.

And Ada…what had happened in Raccoon had proved fatal in her case. That damn platform was the last place he saw her…and Annette. That woman had shot Ada to her death. That memory was faded, but still it was clear in his mind that he could've saved her. But would he have saved her? Knowing she was actually working for Umbrella all along haunted Leon...how could he have fallen for an Umbrella operative?

He missed her like hell, that was one thing for sure. She was absolutely gorgeous: her purr of a voice, her beautiful curves and silky dark hair. But what Claire had discovered when on Rockfort was something that only made his mind wonder more…if Albert Wesker was still alive, maybe there was hope for Ada as well. But he was careless to think that…she had plummeted off the catwalk to a laboratory floor. Probably cement…she was dead for sure.

He looked at the caller ID on the phone…Redfield, Claire…

"Hello?" Leon mumbled, "Claire…is that you?"

"Leon-" Claire's voiced cracked through the phone speaker. Something about her tone wasn't right… "Leon --- another ----spill ----- virus ----- Capitol City ----- Umbrella----"

As soon as the word 'Umbrella' entered Leon's ears time seemed to stop. How could they do it again? How could they manage to do it again?
