Remus cocked his gun, after he reloaded it. A 9mm is good and all, but he wished he had a .45 with hollow tips. That'd make him happy. A bullet grazed his cheek and hit one of the shambling corpses in the head. "Be careful!! Aim away from us, and into them!!" Remus barked at Vic who was behind him.
"A-Alright!!" She stuttered as she squeezed off a round, hitting another zombie in the side of the head. It fell as its body twitched once before falling still. "Better!!" Remus said as he fired off another three shots. Leon and Claire were doing okay, better then him and Vic at times. "There's too many!!" Claire yelled over the din. Remus growled, "Fuck this!! Fire in the hole!!" He roared as he tugged the pin from the pineapple grenade, and threw it. He grabbed Vic and shielded her with his body when it went off.
"When did you get a grenade?!" Leon asked shocked. "Kendo's place, took it when he wasn't paying attention. Let's go before they get up again," Remus said, grabbing Vic's hand and dragging her through the gore and blood stained road. "We're almost there…" He muttered.
A few minutes later they stood before the police station. "We'll split up. Claire and Vic you take the right. Leon and I are going to take the left, got that?" Vic nodded and Claire looked at the foreboding looking building, she soon nodded. "Be careful; if you need any help what so ever, you have my number. Let's go," Remus said, as he cocked his gun, and opened the doors.
Leon looked to his right and fired off a shot. A zombie fell from the shadows in a wet thud, congealed blood pooling around it's head. "Tch, show off…" Remus muttered as he fired a shot himself, taking down a zombie also. "Can't let you get a bigger kill count then me, Kennedy," Remus said smirking. They walked further into the entrance, and Remus chanced a look behind him. He saw Claire and Vic walking away, into the hellish shadows.
Remus felt a pang in his chest, as he watched them disappear down the hallway. Remus steeled himself as he and Leon made their way down the hall. Within moments they had encountered at least 5 of the shambling corpses. Leon and Remus tactfully fired the zombies down, using no more ammo then they had to. "The door to the left or to the right?" Leon asked Remus, who pointed to the left. Leon nodded and walked in, followed closely by Remus.
They walked in and looked around. Remus nudged Leon to get his attention. Leon looked over and saw a man. "Hey! Can you--?"
"No!! Stay away!! I won't let you turn me into one of those things!!" The man said, fearfully as he ran to the door at the end of the room, opened it, and locked. "That was rude," Leon said glancing over his shoulder at Remus. Remus nodded, "Indeed…Hey, look, he dropped something…" Remus said, bending over to pick up a blue key card.
"That could be useful," Leon said.
"Yeah, grabbed that ammo and let's use that computer over there," Remus said as he walked over to the computer. Remus pressed some buttons, and smirked. "Heh, we're set to go," Remus said, his smirk growing. They walked out and headed to the west side of the large hall. They encountered some more of the zombies and began a hail of fire. One zombie fell, it's gore ridden body fell, it's head falling from it's shoulders onto the floor. The second fell, it had no head to fall off, so it's stump of a neck splashed darkened blood on the wooden floor.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth piled onto each other, receiving the same wounds as the ones before. "That was just sick…And the smell doesn't help much…" Remus said covering his nose from the sickly sweet smell of death. "Yeah…The Inquiry Room should just be up ahead," Leon said as he walked the rest of the way down the hall and opened the door. "After you, Ma'am," Leon said as he mocked bowed. "Ass…" Remus muttered, smirking despite himself.
They walked in, guns drawn. "Nothing here…Hey…What's this?" Remus said, picking something off a bench. "That? It looks like a Police Memorandum…" Leon said, "Pocket it and let's see what's behind that brown divider." Remus nodded and inched his way to the divider.
"Nothing here but a door."
"Well, let's go through it then."
"Right-O, Miss Kennedy!!"
Leon scowled, but let a chuckle slip, "Payback?"
"Indeed, Kennedy"
They walked though the door, and Leon quickly turned to his left, pointing his gun out the window. "The hell was that?!"
"What?"
"Something was just outside the window…I think it's gone now," Leon muttered and slowly lowered his pistil. "Do you have that shotgun still, Kennedy?"
"Yeah?"
"I'm getting a feeling we're going to be needing it real soon."
"A feeling?"
"Yeah, trust me. My feelings are always right…Just get it out and put some shells in it," Remus said, taking a small step forward. Leon did as he was told, and when he cocked it, Remus took another cautious step forward. "Let's go," Remus said, the slow walk turning into a slow jog. Leon followed. "Is that blood?" Leon said, when they reached the puddle something crashed through window, snarling. "The hell is that?!" Remus spate out. Leon fired a shot into it's blood glistening forehead. The thing shook itself, slashing at Remus. Remus ducked and fired a bullet into it's bleeding remnants of a head. They thing clawed at him again, barely missing him. Leon cocked the shotgun again and fired.
The creature fell, claws twitching. It's blood pooling around it's head and shoulders. "I hope, I never see one of those again…" Remus said, glaring at the body. "Wishful thinking, Remus, wishful thinking," Leon said walking down the corridor and stopping at the door. "Hurry up, and let's go before more show up," Leon said, waiting for Remus.
Remus damn near ran over to Leon, "Let's go!! Run down the hall, ignore the damn corpses…" Remus growled making a run for the double doors. Leon close behind him. They made it to the doors opened them, and closed them swiftly. "Alright!! We're here now, what do we do?" Leon said, sitting down on the desk in front of the room. "Easy, light the bloody fireplace and see what falls out!!" Remus chirped in, grinning like a madman.
Leon looked at him blankly, "What?" he said skeptically. "Just like in the games, you know. Do this to get that, then use that to get this, easy really…I tell you the ideas I get make me seem brilliant!!" Remus said, grinning. Leon cocked an eyebrow but watched as Remus lit the fireplace. Something sparkled as it fell onto the floor in front of the fireplace. "Hah!! I told you, Kennedy!!" Remus crowed in triumph as he bent over to pick it up. "It's a red jewel…" Leon said walking up beside Remus.
"No, it seems to be a…Virgin Heart…" Remus said as he pocketed the jewel in his pants pocket. "Hey, Remus," Leon said as he walked over to the desk he had been leaning on. "Look, it's a piece of paper," Leon said, picking it up, scanning it as he handed it to Remus.
Remus took the paper and read it. It seems to be an Operation report:
-- Operation Report --
September 26th
The Raccoon Police Dept. was unexpectedly attacked by zombies. Many have been injured. Even more were killed. During the attack, our communications equipment was destroyed and we longer have contact with the outside.
We have decided to carry out an operation with the intent of rescuing any possible survivors as well as to prevent this disaster from spreading beyond Raccoon City. The details of the operation are as follows:
Security of armaments and ammunition.
Chief Irons has voiced concern regarding the issue of terrorism due to a series of recent unresolved incidents. On the very day before the zombies' attack, he made the decision to relocate all weapons to scattered intervals throughout the building as a temporary measure to prevent their possible seizure. Unfortunately, this decision made it extremely difficult for us to locate all ammunition caches. It has become our top priority to recover these scattered
ammunitions.
To unlock the weapon storage.
As stated earlier, it will be extremely difficult to secure all the ammunition. However, a considerable supply still remains in the underground weapon storage. Unfortunately, the person in charge of the card key used to access the weapon storage is missing and we have been unable to locate the key. One of the breakers went down during the battle and the electronic locks are not functioning in certain areas. It has become a top priority to restore the power room and secure those locks.
Recorder: David Ford
-- Operation Report --
September 27th
1:00 PM.
The west barricade has been broken through and another exchange ensued. We sheltered the injured in the confiscation room on the first floor temporarily. Twelve more people were injured in the battle.
Recorder: David Ford
-- Additional Report --
Three additional people were killed following the sudden appearance of an as of yet unknown creature. This creature is identified by missing patches of skin and razor-like claws. However, its most distinguishing characteristic is its lance-like tongue, capable of piercing a human torso in an instant. Their numbers as well as their locations remains unknown. We have tentatively named this creature the "licker" and are currently in the process of developing countermeasures to deal with this new threat.
"Well, now we know what we fought back there…" Remus muttered as he folded the paper and put it in his pocket. "Let's go through the double doors…Reload, cock it, and let's go…" Remus said, walking over to the doors, his face hidden in the shadows of the room. He had a very bad feeling about this Chief Irons. Something isn't right here…
