A/N: By the urging of one my friends, I am posting the third chapter earlier than expected. So here you go! ^_^

Disclaimer: I don't own Resident Evil or the characters.

The hall stood quiet. One of the double doors of the ballroom creaked open a crack. The crack was just enough to allow a teenager's head to peek through and survey the hall and lobby of the hotel. "All clear. No zombies." Stevie said to her friends on that waited inside the door, "And by none, I mean quiet as an untouched grave." The door fully opened, allowing Stevie, Kate, and Mattie to come out of the ballroom, closely followed by Chris.

"So, where should we start?" Mattie asked, glancing up and down the halls and bouncing on her feet as if the zombie apocalypse had not just broken out.

"We're getting you some supplies." Chris said, "I don't like the idea of having all three of you running around unarmed."

"Yeah but where do we get them?" Kate wondered aloud, "It's not like the hotel has its own armory."

"Maybe we should check the floor for zombies, first. It's kinda odd for all of them to be gone." Stevie suggested.

"Yeah, I have to agree with her." Kate replied, "Something about this just seems off."

"Alright, We'll patrol this area for now. See if we can't find anything useful." Chris said, "If we get attacked, run. I'm gonna have to start conserving ammo if we want to get out alive." All the girls nodded.

As Chris started walking, Mattie fell back to walk beside Kate and Stevie. "I heard you guys talking about other characters." She said, "Think we should look for them?" An eager glint behind Mattie's glasses betrayed her enthusiasm.

"I don't think it would hurt to look. I mean we found Chris in the center of the action." Stevie said, "The more help we can get, the better."

"If that's the case," Mattie commented with a mischievous smirk on her face, "I think I have a hunch where we can find one. We might have to make a detour to the hotel's dining room." Stevie and Kate both held back a chuckle.

"And I think I have an idea how we can find another character, as well." Kate said, looking at Stevie's red dress knowingly. Stevie glanced down at her dress and caught onto Kate's plan immediately.

"Oh no. You've gotta be kidding." Stevie complained, "That's a tumor, not an idea!"

Kate smirked evilly, as she always did whenever she plotted something terrible. "We'll find out soon enough. I know a good spot." She stated before running ahead and calling out, "Hey Chris! I've got an idea to run by you!"

"Are you sure this is a good idea? I'm out in the open without a gun!" Stevie called from the lower lobby of the hotel ten minutes later, looking up at Kate, Chris, and Mattie as they stood above her.

"Don't worry! You can run up the stairs if you hear zombies coming. Chris can cover you." Kate reassured from the upper balcony, "Just start going on a rant. If he's here, he'll come around."

"Who's 'he'?" Chris asked Kate with a serious face, "You know, this plan of yours is actually somewhat dangerous."

"Don't worry. I thought everything out. You'll find out who 'he' is soon enough." Kate responded, watching Stevie closely, "Hopefully this shouldn't take too long." Kate turned away from Chris to look back down at Stevie. "Okay, 'Ada', you can start rambling now!"

Stevie shook her head. "Oh, I'm not going to ramble," she taunted from below, "I am going on a full-on TANGENT! I cannot believe that you guys roped me into this! If the zombie apocalypse has not made my day, I don't know what will!"

"And there she goes." Mattie commented, "I almost wish I had some popcorn."

"First of all," Stevie ranted, "I came to this convention just to take a few pictures, show off my costume, fangirl over a couple of characters; that was all I wanted. But no, you have me down here, flashing my legs for all the zombies to see like some cheap piece of oriental takeout! Oh gods help me. And what's worse is you have me waiting here for 'him'. Not just any 'him': KENNEDY. Leon. Scott. Kennedy; who got his butt handed to him in Spain, beaten up by an ex-mercenary- Good god- you have me waiting for him! What's he gonna do? Say "Ada, wait!" , chase me and get lost –again! Is he gonna lose his jacket? I betcha he is! I betcha he's already lost it! We don't need him. We can take care of ourselves! What can he do? Whip his hair back and forth? GAWDS." Stevie finally stopped ranting long enough to pause for air.

"Ada?" a familiar masculine voice echoed form the other side of the lobby. Stevie looked through her peripheral vision, making sure her wig hid most of her face, and found the owner of the voice, complete with emo hairdo and fuzzy-lined leather jacket. "Fuuuuu-!" she raged under her breath before deciding to toy with the agent a little.

"Leon?" she responded with her back turned to him, making her voice sound as much like the real Ada's as possible. "You're here too?"

"Yeah," Leon said as he walked toward the person he presumed to be Ada Wong. As he came closer, the agent stopped. "Wait a minute, you're not-"

"Ada. Ada Wong?" Stevie answered for him, smirking, as she looked the agent in the face before turning her head to look up at the spectators. "Okay, We found him!"

Leon looked upwards. "Claire?" he asked cautiously, looking at Kate's costume.

"Hi Leon!" Mattie greeted as she waved down at the ex-cop.

"Hmm, Not exactly." Kate replied, beckoning for Stevie and Leon to come up the stairs and join them.

"Long time no see, special agent Kennedy." Chris greeted sarcastically as Leon and Stevie ascended the staircase to the balcony.

"Same to you, agent Redfield." Leon responded, "Care to tell me what's going on here? And what's with these girls?"

"Capcom let the information out to public via reverse psychology. We're still trying to figure out how the outbreak started. As for them" Chris said before turning to Stevie, Kate and Mattie who were talking in a huddle, a few feet away, "I'll explain that myself."

Out of Chris' earshot, the three girls talked. "Do not make me do that again." Stevie said, feeling particularly annoyed at being used for human bait.

"Fair enough." Kate promised, "We got what we came for."

"Hey, guys!" Mattie said, getting the attention of Chris and Leon after overhearing their conversation, "Can we have secret agent titles too?"

"No." Chris said.

"Okay then," Stevie said, changing the subject, "Why don't we see who else is around here? Mattie's got a hunch on where to find a certain someone. Right, Mattie?" Kate and Mattie nodded excitedly.

"No way." Chris said decisively, " I've let you run around unarmed long enough. I only followed Kate's plan because she said it would guarantee us some backup. That was the agreement. Now, we are going to get you girls weaponized." All three girls groaned.

A/N: There you go: chapter 3. I won't post chapter 4 till I finish chapter 5. This might take a while. Good bye. Reviews are loved.
