"Ness, if your listening to this, it means the world has ended. I'm sorry your hard work has led to this. You probably had a hard time entering this file. That's because you're infect with the virus I left in the basement. I told you to never go there, but giving the situation, I would do the same."
"The virus you have is a prototype version of the tG virus. Sadly, I was intensifying the G component of the virus. That's why you have those eyeball shaped tumors on you body. While the virus can't be cured, you can balance it."
"As you know, you have a hunger for human flesh. This hunger is the t virus trying to balance itself to G. You need to have the NE-T virus in your body to do that."
"In the desk under this computer, you'll find a map and the key to a small private Umbrella lab under the subway tunnels in Onett. Inside is a Tyrant dubbed T-013. You need to consume it in order to balance yourself. There is also a metal briefcase that contains the last of your uncle's 'Revelations' project. If you wish, you may take it to decrease your mutations"
"But be warned, that virus only has a 20% success rate. You might take it and die as soon as 12 minutes."
"...Goodbye, son. I wish I could have been with you at the end, but the government has me on a tight leash. Remember I...l-oo- ve.. ee -y-oo..."
"If only he knew what his son has become. Maybe, he already did?"
A strange figure stood in front of a worn out computer. He had dirty blond hair and green eyes. He wore worn clothes and had an M4 shotgun on his back. The room he's in was dark and destroyed. Skeletons were hanging from the ceiling and other were on the floor with empty whiskey bottles.
The man grabbed a gun from his side and shot the screen. He walked away from the computer and went outside the office.
He was inside the Umbrella Headquarters of Threed. At least, what was left of it. The nuclear bomb really did hell to this place. Half the building was crumbled to the floor. There were dead bodies all over the area. What worse, there were some zombies around the area.
However, the man was not alone. He had a friend with him. This man was his closest friend, they were always together during missions. Their current mission was to act as mercenaries to work for Ness. Secretly, they were part of the United Settlements' Brotherhood of the Order.
"Any reason why I heard a gunshot in there, Leon" the large muscular man with black hair asked.
Leon smiled "Well Chris, turns out Ness is an Umbrella by-product. If he got hold of that data, any hope for this world would be gone. "
Chris nodded his head. "What should we do now, Kennedy."
He grabbed a USBO cellphone. "The desk has a map and key to a secret, small Umbrella Lab. We need to await further instructions" Leon dialed a number and waited for an answer.
Chris started to chat to pass the time. "So? How's thing with my sister?" He grabbed a pack of cigarettes and offered one to Leon. He waved his hand as to say no.
He shrugged and lit one to smoke. He inhaled and savored the flavor.
"You really shouldn't smoke, Chris. It's bad for your health." Leon said.
Chris laughed. "I'm nearly 54 years old, and we live in a radioactive wasteland. I think my health is the last thing I should care about." He took another puff. "But as I was saying. How's Claire and my nephew, Steven?"
Leon was waiting for someone to answer the phone. He knew that the USBO Communications Satellite was made out of used parts, but they could have made it better.
He answered Chris's question. "She's still working at the Underground Railroad. As for Steve, he's training to be a doctor."
Chris let out a small chuckle. "If there's anything good out of this ordeal, it's the fact that Claire is alive and happy with the man she loves. I just wish Jill was here to see this.."
Leon looked over to his partner. "She was a good woman, Chris. She was kind, beautiful, and strong willed." Chris nodded in agreement. Leon continued "If only Dr. Andonuts made the R.A.D. earlier, we could have saved her on time. Sadly, there was no way we could've known the governments of the world would go full nuclear."
Chris took another puff and dropped the cigarette on the floor. He patted Leon on the back. "Thanks, Leon. You're a good man. I'm glad my sister finally chose a man like you."
He let out another chuckle. Finally, the person behind the phone answered. "Agent Kennedy. We haven't heard from you in awhile. Any new information on Ness?"
Leon started to explain. "Yes Chief, last week's reporting on Ness's cannibalistic acts has been verified. Further investigating shows Ness's father, named Andrew Birkin, was an Umbrella researcher. Ness himself is a by-product of a viral leak from his basement, a heavily modified strain of Umbrella's experimental tG virus was the source of the viral leak. A map and key of the location has been founded and secured. Location is a private lab in the ruins of the Onett subway tunnels. We await for next course of action, sir."
There was a dead silence echoing through the phone. "Sir? Are you there?" asked Leon.
"Kennedy. Your mission is over. You and Redfield must head back to HQ."
Chris was shocked, he grabbed the phone from Leon's hand. "But Chief, What about Ness?"
"Your information puts him as a greater threat than before. We're facing a mutant bioweapon, not an insane madman. We can't risk losing you two. Retreat to HQ now!"
"Yes, sir." Chris grunted. He hanged up and gave the cell back to Leon.
Leon spoke. "Chris, he has a point."
Chris started to argue "We both have experience dealing with Umbrella's Bioweapons. We have for most of our adult lives! Why did he told us to retreat?"
Leon placed a hand on his shoulder. "Ness is more powerful than any bioweapon Umbrella has ever made. The radiation has not destroyed his PSI ability because of the virus."
"Let's just go."
"... Lucas..."
"... 3.6 Gy of radiat..."
"... blood pressure is 80/63..."
"... e's seizing! We need to sta..."
"... cardiopulmonary arrest! Do we have a defibr..."
"...Lucas, LUCAS!"
January 30, 2027 15:42 (3:42 P.M.) Starship Mario (22 Miles 'till Phosphor Island!)...
"Lucas... Lucas, wake up."
Lucas opened his eyes and looked around. He saw Pokey was wiping his forehead with a moist towel. He also noticed he was in the Captain's room.
He tried to sit up on the bed, but felt pain though his entire body when he did. Pokey gently pushed Lucas back, and covered the boy with a blanket.
Pokey smiled at the boy. "You really put a scare on us. Seizures, cardiac arrest, and you were dead for three minutes. That radiation did some real damage on you."
Lucas stared at Pokey. He thought everything that happened was a dream. "So, Issac really did came here?" he asked.
Pokey nodded.
"And that world, the red swirling face, and the way you looked there. That was real too?"
Pokey hesitated for a few seconds, but nodded. "You must understand, Lucas. When I was evil, the evil came from a powerful creature called Giygas. A piece of the demonic thing went into my heart and turned me powerful and, well, evil. When I became good, the evil part hid away. It only comes out during moments of crisis."
Lucas closed his eyes. "So, you became that because Issac hurt me."
He looked back at Pokey. "What exactly did he do to me?"
Pokey grabbed another wet towel and placed it on the boy's head. "He exposed you with 3.6 Gy of radiation. You're going to be fine, Mario has special medicine that heals radiation."
Lucas got up and vomited in a bucket Pokey had nearby.
"How long will I be like this?" Lucas asked.
Pokey laid Lucas down and covered the boy again, then he wiped the vomit from his mouth with a small towel. "Just for a few more hours. You need to rest until you have the energy to at least eat something."
Lucas fell asleep again and Pokey tucked the boy in. He quietly walked out the room and closed the door behind him. He climbed the latter on the side. When he reached the top, he saw Mario with a small telescope looking ahead. Luigi was sitting on a small chair yawning, and the toads were cleaning the deck. Fuel was goofing around with the other passengers.
Luigi was the first one to see him. "Hey, Pokey. How's the boy doing?" he asked.
"He woken up, but fell asleep shortly after. Can you watch him for me?"
Luigi nodded. He walked passed Pokey and jumped off the ledge to the room.
Pokey walked up to Mario. "Do you see the island from here?"
"It's in the horizon, but it'll take a hour or two to reach." said Mario. He placed the small telescope down and went back to the helm. Pokey grabbed the telescope and looked ahead.
He saw the small island. From afar, he could see a volcano at the corner of the island and a jungle. He collapsed the telescope and sat it on a small table nearby. He sat on a chair and ponder on last night's incident.
"What Issac said. 'Master Ness was right..' Was he really referring to Ness? The same Ness who only used violence as a last resort." he thought.
Sadly, his thoughts were interrupted by Fuel when he sat down next to him.
"Is Lucas gonna be alright, Pokey?" asked Fuel.
"He'll be find in a few more hours. Hopefully by then you'll have your 'Lucas, I love you' speech ready by then."
Fuel became wide-eye. "H-How did you know?"
Pokey smirked at him. "Why else would you come with us if not to impress him? That and you were having a wet dream after you lost consciousness."
Fuel blushed and looked away. Pokey noticed Fuel's frown.
"Fuel, you seem sad. What's wrong?" he asked worryingly.
Fuel turned to Pokey and cried "You think I'm a freak, don't you.."
Pokey was surprised by his reaction. "A freak? Why would I think your a freak?"
"Because, it not natural. A man is suppose to love a women, not another man." Fuel began to cry.
Pokey started to feel sympathy for the boy. He patted his back in reassurance.
"Fuel, what you are is not unnatural. In fact, many people before Nowhere Island were like you."
Fuel sniffled. "Really?"
"Yes. There are many people just like you. It's not unnatural, it just something you're born with. And I can see that you accept who you are, which is good."
Fuel got up from his chair and hugged the once evil dictator. "Thanks, Pokey. Now if you excuse me, I have to practice my speech."
Fuel left him and went inside the ship via the green pipe. Pokey sat there and wonder about the outcome of Fuel's speech...
January 30, 2027 16:00 (4:00 P.M.) Starship Mario/Phosphor Island...
"Phosphor Island! Dead ahead!" shouted Mail Toad.
Pokey was having a spot of tea with Toadsworth when they heard the toad shout.
"My boy, must you scream so loudly. This peace and quiet is what all true sophisticated men strive for." said Toadsworth.
"Sorry Uncle Toadsworth..." The purple toad looked down at his feet and walked away depressed.
Pokey placed his tea on the coaster. "Toadsworth, you don't have to be rude to the poor thing. He was just trying to help."
Toadsworth sighed. "Perhaps I was a little hard on the poor boy."
He shouted to the young toad. "Mail T., why don't you join me and Sir Pokey for some late afternoon tea?"
The young toad jumped up in joy and ran to the table to take a seat. Pokey grabbed the handle of the teapot and poured it into a tea cup next to Mail T.
"Well then, Sir Pokey. What is in this small island? Why, it looks like it's no bigger than the village you came from." Toadsworth said after drinking some tea.
Pokey grabbed his tea cup and spun the contents with a small spoon. "There is a healer that has a specific plant I'm looking for in this island." He drank his tea.
Toadsworth looked at him for awhile. "What is this unusually rare plant you speak of?"
"The coca plant."
Toadsworth spat out his tea. He grabbed his hankie and wiped his mouth. "The coca plant!" he shouted. "That plant also exists in the Mushroom World and it used to make a terrible drug called cocaine! Why in the name of King Toadstool would you need that for?"
Pokey was shocked at the old toad's outburst. He didn't expect the same plant exists in the world they came from, let alone it's used to make the same drug as cocaine.
"Mr. Toadsworth, I'm not collecting it to make that drug. I'm collecting it to create an antidote for the tainted water supply of the Nowhere Island." He explained.
Toadsworth took a second to consider Pokey's explanation and finally accepted it. "I see.. Pardon my outburst, Sir Pokey."
Pokey nodded his head as a forgiving sign.
Mario walked up to the table. He greeted everyone with a smile. "Hey, Pokey. We finally arrived in the island...
January 30, 2027 16:00 (4:00 P.M.) Starship Mario/Phosphor Island...
Mario and Pokey jumped off the starship onto the beach. They saw a man who wore a white robe. He had long red hair that reached to his feet and a star shaped pendent on his necklace"Welcome to Phosphor Island." said the strange looking man.
Mario and Pokey walked over to the strange man. "Are you the Retro New Age Healer?" asked Pokey
The man looked at him and smiled. "Yep! I'm the Retro New Age Healer." He shook Pokey's hand. "Is there something you need of me?"
Pokey smiled. "Yes, I need the coca plant to make an antidote for brainwashing, and my mustache friend is looking for a..."
"Power Star. It's a gold star with two eyes." explained Mario.
The healer pondered. "I have a coca plant that I can give, but a power star... Aha! My necklace! I found this star about a week ago."
He removed his necklace and gave it to Mario. The star pendent opened it's eyes and grew to the size of Mario's head. It started to fly around Mario's body causing him to hover, and Mario grabbed it and shouted "Yahoo!" Soon, the star and Mario flew back to Starship Mario.
Pokey looked back, he saw the star disappear inside the ship and soon the ship let out a strange sound. The river from the captains room no longer fell into the ground below, but ran down the starship to the bottom to create a small upside down lake. It seem the artificial gravity was on.
"Here you go, Pokey. A coca plant..."
He turned back to the healer and grabbed the potted plant from his hands. "How did you know my name?" Pokey asked.
The healer chuckled. "I knew you would come... Let's leave it at that, my friend." He turn to leave into the forest, but he stopped half way.
"By the way... It is the same Ness you knew." he said before leaving the scene.
Pokey was speechless. He wanted more answers, but Mario was calling him to return back to the ship...
January 30, 2027 1:34 (1:34 A.M.) Abandon Metro Tunnels, Svinalvania, Wastelands...
It was truly abandoned. The tunnels were dark, but it seem the emergency generator was still working to power the lights. Parts of the area was completely cut off by the destroyed trains and collapsed ceilings.
"Christie... Thanks."
Claus was limping forward as he held on to Christie shoulder for support. He was still hurt by Issac's abuse and he believe his mechanical leg was broken.
"No prob." she said. "Maybe we should take a break so I could look at the map." She walked up to a small room in the side of the tracks. She open the door and saw it was a small office. But what was strange about the office, seems to be a large octagon shaped symbol on the wall. It had a red and white pattern, sorta like an umbrella top.
She placed Claus on the chair next to a computer and looked at the map near a small lamp.
Claus looked at the computer curiously and turned it on. It asked for the password. His computer eye was able to hack into the device and allowed him in.
"Hey, Christie. Come and look at this." he called. She stopped looking at the map and read the option on the computer screen.
"Activate T-013? Is that some kind of bazooka?" asked Christie.
"I don't know. But we really need a weapon if we're going to continue on." He pressed yes on the computer and heard a strange sound from behind him. They looked behind them and saw the wall with the symbol opened up to reveal a large transparent capsule. Inside the capsule is what made them panic.
A large man like creature was inside. It was about 8 feet tall. Its skin was blue, and its eye's had no pupils. One of its arms were clawed and the strangest feature of all was the heart was exposed outside his body. The capsule opened and the thing fell face flat onto the floor.
Christie grabbed Claus and they ran away from the seemingly dead creature. Little did they know that the creature was still alive...
They ran and ran until they crashed into something. That something was Ness. Unfortunately, Claus fainted on impact.
Christie was the first one to speak. "Ness!" He grabbed a broken pipe and started to attack. "Die monster! You don't belong in this world!"
Ness was able to pull away the the pipe from her hand and grabbed her by the neck.
"It was not by my hand that I was made king. I was called here by humans who wish to pay me tribute." he told.
She kicked Ness off her and grabbed the rock. She threw it a Ness's face, causing him to fall to the ground. "Tribute? You steal men's souls, and make them your slaves!"
Ness raised from the ground and said "Perhaps the same could be said of all religions." as he wiped the blood off his mouth.
She stared at him. "Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill-needs a savior such as you!"
Ness laughed at her. His clock came off his body and revealed his nude form. She was surprise to see the skin was greenish brown and there were eyes on many regions on Ness.
He started to growl "What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk...have at you!"
Suddenly, Ness gasped and looked down on his chest. A large claw pierced his chest.
"L-leeavee Moooommmy a-a-lloonee..."
Ness looked behind him and saw a creature. The same creature that Claus and Christie released.
It threw Ness onto a pillar and he collapsed on the floor, dead. The creature turned Christie and walked up to her. For some reason, Christie didn't ran away.
The creature hugged her. "Moommmyyy.." It said.
She looked at the creature and then at Claus who had woken up to see this. The creature turned over and also hugged Claus.
"D-Daadddyyyyy.." It said
Claus looked at Christie, who was chuckling, and said "Perhaps we should go back to that office and see why this thing think we're his parents"
She nodded her head in agreement and helped him up. They heard another sound and turned to see the dead body of Ness was gone.
"W-Where did he go!" she asked in a panicked manner.
A spine-chilling laugh was echoed through the tunnels...
That was... unexpected. See ya next time. Or not... It's your choice. Sorry this took awhile, I was on vacation.
