Summary:

A look at Mark Sy's past as a Center and Spriggan agent. In 2000, ARCAM has decided to create an elite team of Strikers called the Strikers Elite, a team that would comprise the best of the best within the Strikers unit as an immediate rapid response team against corporations, groups or individuals that would deem a threat to the safety of the world. Who would be in the unit and what is their first mission after its activation? Who will be their enemy? A crossover story with Resident Evil/Biohazard.

Note - Some of you might notice that Nicholai, from the Resident Evil/Biohazard series, has his surname as Zinoviev instead of Ginoveaf for this story. I thought that this is more appopriate as our main villian in this story has to sound more Russian. Personally, the surname Ginoveaf is kinda bad for me. But, it's merely my opinion. Besides, some RE/BH sites have named him to be as such. If you're going to send me a review merely just to correct this one, then I suggest you don't bother since I find Zinoviev to be better than Ginoveaf. Period. Nada. End of story.

I'll try to update it in the next few days when possible since I end school by 8/3/05 and I need to be in California by the 10th so as to spend some vacation with my family. Though if you see this story updated after the 10th, don't be surprised as I might try to finish it during my vacation. If not, I might do it before the end of the year.

Okay. I better stop here right now before I bore you guys to death and lose some potential readers/reviewers. Thanks a bunch and rock on guys! Keep reading this story and send some reviews for me to read. Flames are not an exception.

Chapter 1: Meet the Strikers Elite

Present Time

Mark's room, Sy Residence

After returning from Douglas College in order to check his registration status when he first came back from a Center field mission, he began to boot his computer and checked his daily mail to see if anything was needed for his aunt. Satisfied to see that everything was junk, he threw them all away into his trashcan.

He logged onto his e-mail and checked his Yahoo account. Noticing a new e-mail, he checked it and saw that he got a message from Yu Ominae back in Japan.

Hey Mark,

Good to see you kicking again after our last meeting. Listen, there's going to be a party in ARCAM's Canadian branch, though the party is going to be in Vancouver obviously. All the guys are going to be there, even Tea herself. See you there, pal!

Regards,

Yu Ominae

Mark fondly remembered the day that he had to resign from the Center in 1999 just to work for ARCAM as a Striker agent. Opening one of his desk drawers, he took out a colored photo and held it with his hand.

In the photo itself, Mark was in the center of the group, kneeling with an ARCAM Armored Muscle Suit and a Marom Dolphin IDF Reconnaisance Vest. On his hands was a Howa Type 89 assault rifle. They were also other foreign Striker agents in the photo too, but the most noticable were Yu Ominae, Jean Jacquemonde, Tea Flatte and Oshiki Tashiki. Yu was doing the "horns" trick behind him when he grinned with his two fingers behind his head. Jean was at his usual anti-socialist face when he posed with his Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun. Tea, on the other hand, was kneeling next to him with a wide smile on her face. The four were among the 14 teens who posed in the photo.

"It was so long ago that I last lead the unit." With that, Mark began to head back into his memories, trying to remember the day that lead his Striker friends into action.


2000

Chairman's Office, ARCAM Japan

"Mr. Yamamoto?"

The door to Chairman Yamamoto's office opened up and it revealed a young lady, somewhere in her early '20s, who has some files on her hands.

"Oh. What is it, Michiko?"

The chairman of ARCAM's Japan branch happened to have his usual smoking session over a cigarette. He noticed that his personal secretary had a folder with her.

"Here's the folder that they wanted you to look at, sir. It just got here by priority mail before you arrived."

"Probably it's about the thing that some of the directors have decided to amend." He remembered attending a meeting in Vancouver on creating a team of Strikers that could be used as a first strike team instead of sending individual Strikers when possible.

"Thank you, Michiko." said Chairman Yamamoto with a bright smile.

Michiko returned his smile with her own as she left his office in order for him to be alone.

Chairman Yamamoto opened the file. On the first page, it has a stamp mark that said "CLASSIFIED!". Opening the page, it revealed several dossier files on various Striker field agents. He then decided to read the first part of the file, which informed him on the contents on a post-it note.

Chairman Yamamoto,

This folder contains the files on several of the Striker candidates that are going to be in the Strikers Elite Unit. Following the second meeting with various ARCAM security officials, they have decided to activate the unit after the members come to meet in Tokyo. Please debrief them as soon as possible once you have the chance to meet them in Tokyo.

On the folder, it contained a note that explained an attack on one of ARCAM's facilities in South Africa. According to ARCAM security officials, the heavily armed men had the seal of the well-known Umbrella Corporation on their uniforms. This revelation had brought some shivers to Yamamoto's spine; he disregarded the note for now and went on to read the rest of the dossiers of the accepted Striker candidates.

Chairman Yamamoto gave some deep breaths after running through the files. Typically, he was at shock on seeing the names of the various Striker candidates who were to be part of the proposed Strikers Elite unit. After he saw the names of Yu, Jean and Tea, he became even more confident as he felt that the unit would be unstoppable in their mission against the enemies of ARCAM and the rest of the planet. He needed to meet with the various Striker operatives immediately as soon as possible before he misses the opportunity to do so. Yamamoto immediately realized that these Striker field agents were some of the most badass operatives that ARCAM has ever recruited into their services.

Giving a short sigh after closing the brown folder, he pressed a button on his intercom found on his desktop phone, connecting to his secretary. "Better take care of it at once!" "Michiko?"

"Yes sir?" inquired the secretary from the other line.

"Send out a message to the branches to send their people over to Tokyo at once. I'll give you the names later."

"Of course. I'll do it at once, sir."

"Thanks, Michiko." Yamamoto removed his finger from the intercom button and extinguished his cigarette on his ashtray before retrieving another from a Salem cigarette pack and placing the single cigarette stick onto his mouth, took a lighter from one of his desk drawers and lit up the object in his mouth. He then stood up from his chair and peered from the glass to observe the busy afternoon in downtown Tokyo. He sighed after pulling out the cigarette from his mouth in order to exhale the smoke that was in his lungs.

"What do I do next?"

Nicholai Zinoviev's Office, Umbrella Corporation Building, somewhere in Canada

A Caucasian man was seen in his office chair near his computer. With the night sky of Vancouver behind him, he used his fingers to hammer his keyboard, keeping an eye on his monitor. The man was typing a report for his superiors, asking him for his opinion on a certain matter.

His name was Nicholai Zinoviev, a Russian national and an employee of the infamous Umbrella Corporation. 2 years ago, he was known in various mercenary circles for being one of the remaining Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service or the UBCS unit operators to leave Raccoon City before it was destroyed in a tactical nuclear strike authorized by former US President Bill Clinton.

He escaped safely and with the help of his superiors in the UBCS force, moved him secretly to the safety of Canada while a manhunt was underway to apprehend the Russian national for his actions in the former American metropolis. Right now, he was awaiting word about a mission that concerned about the raid of a facility conducted by a joint force of UBCS, Umbrella Special Forces Unit (USFU) or better known originally as the Umbrellas Security Services (USS) and Cleaner squads somewhere in Africa.

"After the work done in Raccoon and with this dumb posting in Vancouver, I just want to get back to my Supervisor job as soon as possible. Office work is surely boring and dull."

His train of thought was interrupted when a man entered his office, bearing a folder on his hand. "Mr. Zinoviev, I see that you're busy as usual." He happened to be wearing a business suit.

Nicholai turned around to face the man who had entered his office. "As always, Mr. Michael Chu. What can I do for you, aside from halting me from typing my report to my superiors back in the UBCS since this is important?"

"I sincerely apologize. But here's the report detailing the success of the units on an ARCAM facility in South Africa. I think you may want to read it."

"I see. Is this the one that the people at the top were talking about regarding an ex-employee of ours who defected recently from our Canadian branch?"

Michael handed the folder to the Russian UBCS Supervisor. "Yes of course. He was taken care of appropriately, along with the other ARCAM employees too as well in the facility back in South Africa."

Nicholai scratched his nose before continuing his conversation. "Well, good work for our boys back there. The only problem that we may facing right now is with those accursed Strikers that ARCAM might deploy." He chuckled on his own remarks before he allowed Michael to continue with his "report".

"Of course." Michael focused his attention on a UBCS beret found on his desktop next to the desktop lamp. "Are you going to be in any operation in the near future as a Supervisor, Nicholai?"

The Russian man grinned at his question. He took the green beret, twirled it on his finger and tossed it on a sofa nearby. "Indeed, comrade." He then cracked his knuckles. "Indeed."

"I should let you know that um..." The Chinese Canadian man coughed for a second to adjust his semi-dry throat. "Your superiors would want to let you be informed that you'll be on standby immediately. Looks like they've got something for you to do. I've heard that ARCAM could retaliate in the near future."

All that Nicholai could do was smile and smirk at him.

"Tell me about it."
