I sit Rain up and run over to Alice. She looks at me, stopping on the blood on my hands.
'She's fine, cut open by the window I think, then went unconscious' I say listening to the tapping on the roof. She nods unsurely, and then runs over to matt. She checks him and he stands, a 10 centimetre cut is there, he holds his hand over it. The roof suddenly rips of and the Licker is standing there, looking down at us all. Its tongue lashes out and knocks Alice over into a pole, before coming back and hitting me on the knee caps. A crack comes from my legs and one of my knees gives way, breaking and crashing to the floor.
Alice slowly stands up, picking up a piece of the pole that fell off. The Licker jumps into the cart, wrapping its tongue around Alice's leg. She swipes at it, but it doesn't let go. I drag myself over to her, and then grab its tongue, squeezing it as hard as I can. It does something like a scream and tries to pull back, letting go of Alice's leg. I hold on as long as I can, but eventually have to let go. It turns away and jumps onto the outside of the cart.
We all stand still, matt moves over slowly into the middle. We can hear its feet slowly tapping around the cart, going in circles. It does a full circle, stopping just before the entrance. I pull out my knife and hold by my side, pointing back. The licker suddenly jumps over the roof, straight for Alice and me. I bring the knife forward and stab its clearly visible brain head, Alice's pole (which she is still holding) has gone straight into its mouth, stabbing its tongue. She brings her hand out of its mouth and puts the pole through the open-able floor.
'Open the door!' Alice calls out to matt, who was pushed back by the licker when it jumped us. When nothing happens we turn around and see that he is battling a dead Rain, who has come back. Alice and I watch in silence, before I shout 'Shoot her!' shakily
Matt stands up and pushes her of him, so she hits the wall. He pulls out his gun and holds it up to her head. He hesitates, Just standing there. It seems like everything Alice and I yell at him it's just white noise.
'Matt!' Alice yells her voice as shaky as mine. Matt is still standing there. The licker is nearly out of Alice's and my trap, pulling its tongue out.
'She will kill you!' I say, wanting to move but my broken knee cap refuses to let me. Rain lunges at him.
Bang
Rain falls down, this time dead for sure. Matt stands there, looking at the stop where Rain was. He coughs and looks at his gun, he didn't shoot. Lucifer walks over and presses the 'Open floor door' button. The trap doors open and the licker falls out of them, but Alice and I grab the pole and let it be dragged along, just to make sure it's dead. It sets on fire from the friction and then goes still. We let it go, its body still and on fire in the middle of the track. Alice and I look at each other for a while, than smile a little. We turn to Matt, Lucifer and Rain.
'I had to' Lucifer says, looking at us looking at her. We nod, Matt is back to normal, and he walks over and closes the trap door. The train pulls up and we all get out the door, with matt carrying me in the bridal position because I still can't walk on my leg, although it doesn't really matter because of the size of the holes in the wall. We all file out and head to the gate. Lucifer checks the watch that she took of Rain.

We all walk out just in time, the doors slowly close and we all turn to watch the hive seal shut. When the doors close Alice turns around, but matt hovers a bit, and then turns. Lucifer stays, then falls to the floor, breaking down in tears.
'My memory… all of it, I remember' She said, putting her hand on the door. I push Matt's hand of me, he lowers me to the floor and I limp over to her. 'I'm going to die' she says.
'No, I say, helping her stand. She has lost an enormous amount of blood, and her cut is starting to open more.
'Yes... I' she starts to say
'No' I say, guiding her over to Alice and Matt. I limp, rejecting help from Matt, with Lucifer passed Alice and Matt and out back into the mansion, where all of this started. Alice forces my arm over her shoulder when I fall over coming up the stairs back into the mansion. I side smile at her and Matt picks up Lucifer. After walking into the main house area Alice stops short and slowly sinks to the ground. I hop of her and look at her, she is very depressed.
'I failed' she mutters. Matt sits Lucifer down and puts his hand on her shoulder.
'No you didn't' he says soothingly
There is a hole team dead down there, because we lost our memories and count remember' I say, I hear Lucifer groan.
'No, umbrella is guilty here, not you, they made the virus' he says, looking at his arm like he was just pinched. There are three cuts on it. 'you did all you – ouch – could… ah' he says, putting his hand on his arm.
'What's wrong' Alice says. I turn to Lucifer, who is clutching her side.
'Oh god' I say, looking at them both, 'were you infected?'
'Yes' mutters Lucifer, holding her side tighter, 'by the –ow!'
Lucifer and Matt are lying next to each other, both infected.
'Don't worry, we have the anti-virus here' says Alice, opening the silver box. 'I'm not loosening anyone else'
I hold Lucifers arm down, ready for the anti-virus. The doors open and heaps of people wearing white suits walk in. the one at the front, most likely the leader, ushers the others in, pointing at us. They come in and push me and Alice back against the wall, letting others pick up Lucifer and Matt.
'Stop!' I say, trying to push them out of the way
'What are you doing?' Alice yells, also pushing some of the men out of the way. I manage to move them to the side and grab one of Lucifers hand. The people holding her try to use their feet to stop and make me let go. Alice is punching and kicking as much as she can, but we can't do anything. One of the men kicks me right in the face and I fall to the floor, holding my knee and now bleeding nose.
'I want them in the nemesis program, they are mutating' one of the people says, turning around, walking away from us. I turn to Alice, to see one of the men hit her on the back of the head. She falls to the floor unconscious, eyes fluttering. I look at Matt and Lucifer. They are on hospital beds, turning the corner, back outside. I look down, and then jump up again, trying to follow them. I run, but a man grabs my arm and pins me down, knocking me out doing so.
End.
