Chapter 1

Alice's POV

I was naked when I woke up on a cold marble floor. The room was unknown to me; I was supposed to be startled since I found myself in an unfamiliar room, but what surprised me was the inch-flooded floor I'm lying on. My hair was wet as well as my back. I tried to stand but my legs wouldn't budge. Then all of a sudden, an excruciating pain started to disperse all through out my body. I crumpled to the floor splattering water to my face as a small groan surfaced my lips. My muscles showed indication of momentary system immobility.

"Uh, uh, ah, ahhh…." I whimpered. I was breathing heavily.

The unbearable throbbing of my body was devouring my sanity. It was like blazing flames consuming my human soul. I hurled unto the floor trying to reduce the pain I'm suffering but my efforts proved to be futile. The twinge that was surmounting all over my body, combined with the cold water where I was partly submerged almost blew the hell out of me. Gathering all my strength, I cupped a handful of water and stroked it unto my skin. The ache gradually subsided accompanied with the renewal of my mobility. I closed my eyes trying to remember what really happened.

Abruptly, a man in a white lab coat emerged from the left wing of the room. Behind him were 3 other younger men also wearing lab gowns.

I hurled up even more to cover my nakedness. The man was familiar to me, I was pretty sure of that. He approached me and handed me a lab coat.

"Hello" he said.

"Whe, whe, Where.." I stuttered. A tingle of pain ran through my throat.

"Where are you?" he asked. I nodded softly.

"You're in a safe place" he answered immediately. I stared down on my feet.

"Her recovery's remarkable!" one of the younger men holding a nano laptop with an umbrella logo announced. "And her powers both physical and mental are developing at a geometric rate"

The man who offered me the coat gave me a pointed object. "Do you know what this is?" he asked.

I stared at him blankly. Noticing the nameplate pinned on the right side of his chest, it read: Dr. Sam Isaacs.

"It's a pen" he said. Then, he got a small notepad from his lab coat pocket and started drawing freestyle lines. "You see?" he continued "You try". He handed me the 'pen' and the pad.

I imitated what he did.

"That's it. Pen" he said "Now look at me. Can you remember anything? You remember your name?"

"My name? My name." I uttered. Fragments of memory from the past began flooding my mind.

I can help you get the virus. I have access to security codes, surveillance plans and the works.

But?

But there will be a price..

Name it…

You'll have to guarantee me you'll bring this corporation down

"I want her quarantined, close observation" Isaacs said while opening his own nano laptop "A complete set of blood work"

"My name." I mumbled

"And, chemical electrolyte analysis by the end of the day"

"My name" I mumbled again.

Kaplan! Open the door! Get them out.

I'm working on it.

Come on, Help them!

I'm trying!

Come on, Open the door, there's something killing them in there!

I'm almost there…Got it.

Oh God,

"Advance reflex testing is a priority" he continued

"My name" I murmured

"Sir" one of the younger men called.

"my name" I continued to murmur..

I don't want to be like them walking around without a soul.

You won't, no one else is gong to die.

When the time comes you'll have to take care of it.

"My name"

"Sir" the short man continued to appeal

Take her to the raccoon city facility.

Matt!!

Up the dosage. Just do it!

"Monitor electrical impulses" Isaacs ordered

"Sir" the short man called out

"My name"

There might be more of those things.

If there were more, we should have seen them by now.

You know what they are?

They're bio-weapons from Umbrella labs beneath the city.

How come you know so much about umbrella?

I used to work for them.

"My name"

"Genetic make up examination should be on in under an hour" Isaacs directed

This is a product of the Umbrella Corporation.

Our business is life itself. (life itself, life itself)

"Sir." This time the voice was pleading

"What is it?" Isaacs yelled irritated

And all of a sudden, everything was clear to me.

"My name………

is Alice and I remember everything" I remarked.

The four men stared at me bewildered. I took advantage of their astonishment. I grabbed the nearest object my hand found, which is apparently a pen, and stabbed the left shoulder of the red-headed scientist before any of them could even blink. I was amazed of my extraordinary speed I have. His companions, although still surprised, promptly responded upon the situation. They were fast, but I was faster and stronger than the three of them left combined. The blonde scientist with a syringe that contains the sedative lunged towards me, trying to downgrade the unruliness I exhibited but he failed. I rolled out of the way in time then jumped up and headed for the white-washed wall away from the scientists, who in turn gave a chase. I sauntered on the wall till I reached the ceiling and dashed to the blonde scientist to kick him in the head while I sidestep both Dr. Isaacs and the last remaining assistant. All of them were down. I didn't expect that the last remaining assistant was still alive. I treaded towards him assertively; a half smile surfaced my lips. His hands twitched and curled, then he looked up to me with pleading eyes.

"P-Please don't, don't kill me. I beseech"

"I beg your pardon?" I asked pretending to be ingenuous about the situation.

"Please. I implore you"

"Implore away" I was ready to step on his head and crush it. My eyes were burning with disgust and hatred. How can this guy ask me to spare his damn life when I know that he is working for Umbrella and vowed to be faithful to the even after death? How can I show mercy to this man who is a part of an incredible massacre in Volterra, Italy? A massacre that was only executed with the objective of getting an advance strain of the Progenitor Virus made by Dr. Samson. They thought that I didn't know all about the Samson family massacre, but I do and I loathe them for it.

"Please, Please, I beg you don't kill me. I have a son and a wife waiting for me at home. Today is my son's birthday and he is expecting me"

I stared at him for what seem to be a minute. He has a son? This son of a bitch has a son of his own? I felt frustrated, I couldn't kill this man; I just couldn't. His son would be expecting him and I can't ruin this day. I can't ruin his son's life.

"You think I believe?" I asked. I spoke those words with uncertainty; then with much frustration coupled with reservation I gave him a hard jab on his abdomen enough to knock him unconscious. "Be grateful to your son. He saved your life."

I walked pass him and came upon Dr. Isaacs. He wasn't moving. I smirked. "Good for you, doctor" I slid my hand inside his lab coat and got his Umbrella Security License Card.

I rushed towards the metal door and slithered the USL card into the safekeeping device. The door opened followed by a thundering sound. I stepped outside with a sigh of hesitant relief. I must escape the premises before they send backups. I turned to look at the Dr. Isaacs, hoping that this is the last time I'll see him.

"Goodbye Doctor, See you in hell"
