Ashley kept looking upward the coffin-like chambers were beginning to removed themselves with massive metallic arms setting them high as the platform started to rotate too at a grinding start and steady increase in speed then is set the rate. The door opened finally for one of the coffins, and a body was taken by gravity, and it landed ten feet from the trio.

A thin body began to shake, and it crawled up, bones are brittle, and the skin was just rags to the flesh. It opened its yellow eyes then its jaw. The creature was humanoid as the mouth was utter blackness and out came some sort of insect tongue waving jagged spikes all around.

Jessica didn't wait to see this creature's party trick, so she blasted a hole in its head with her slug shell of the cruiser. When she pumped the cartridge out, three more bodies clashed to the metal.

"Bring it you monsters!" Ashley fired several single shots into one of the zombies with her SIG 556, and it went limp. Though testing your luck by standing near it is not recommended.

"What the hell are these things?" Jessica shouted as he blasted one zombie off the platform. A hollow shell tapped and rolled into the darkness.

"Las Plagas, I remember them from Spain, but I don't recognize their lack of intelligence." Ashley did several single shots with Hunk as the third fell backward.

"They behave the same way as the zombies from Raccoon City. I guess that these things are some sort of splice of the T-Virus and Las Plagas. In other words, dumb parasites." Hunk looked up as seven more corpses came from above.

The height was increasing, so the amount of force was growing larger; eventually, if one body hits them, it'll be broken bones or death. Hunk did plenty of controlled burst fire with his TMP to the falling horde. Four more were killed without getting the chance to move. The last three began to make their move. One got as close as three feet from Jessica as she loaded shells into the cruiser. Jessica pumped the chamber, but one shell was caught in the opening. The zombie spat its tongue out as it bent backward to slap the tongue forward. Jessica brushed the shell out, but it was too late. The zombie's tongue was flipping around, the craving for flesh. Before it struck Jessica, the zombie was forced to the left of the zombie as a silhouette of Ashley appeared. She kicked the zombie away as it flew off the platform.

"I got your back, no matter what." The CZ75 flicked out of the holster. Ashley mixed it up kneecapping an incoming zombie with an additional bullet to the skull.

"Thanks." Jessica blasted smoke removing the stomach of one new zombie. The hole was wide enough for a basketball as the entrails spilled out and the thing stepped forward slipping on the inners and slammed to the metal. Regardless it crawled for half an inch before Jessica blasted its head away.

As the TMP clicked empty Hunk snapped to his M9, but one zombie lunged forward. Hunk leaned backwards, and when it reached him, Hunk used the momentum to flick it off the platform. While on his back Hunk looked up as a grey blur became more substantial, and he brought the M9 close and rolled to his right as another zombie slammed beside his location. He set the steel to the temple with flesh splashing to the darkness. Hunk sprung his legs upward and regrouped.

Jessica dropped the cruiser and tugged the strap of the MP5K then while raising it she unloaded ten shoots as a zombie zoned in on her. It went from the foot to the head in two seconds; while it was dazed Jessica high kicked it back.

Five more bodies joined the party. With the growing weight, the metal platform grinded for five seconds and dropped by ten feet. Three of the zombies lost their balance. While one fell off and one was still. Ashley did a quick display of unbalanced steps, Hunk lowered his body to stay level, but Jessica was closest to the edge. She didn't feel anything solid below her. With a blink of her eyes for a millisecond to see she was gripping the cruiser with her left hand and Hunk held the barrel end of the cruiser. He inched his right hand to have a shark bite grip of the pump part of the cruiser.

"I could use some help." Jessica lifted her right hand to grab the grip of the cruiser.

"Help me by moving your finger away from the trigger." Hunk murmured. His right hand was down while the left was set on the platform in a war with Newton's law. The barrel was set for Hunk's helmet.

Jessica flicked the safety. "Happy?"

Hunk made two quick breaths. "Not quite."

"Hang on!" Ashley flicked the mode automatic on the SIG. She grazed the zombies as she rang a fury of bullets. As it clicked empty, Ashley grabbed her pack frantically and tapped the button on a beacon grenade and tossed it on the far end of the platform. Two more bodies landed as she did that. She turned away and took hold of Hunk's left shoulder with her right hand as she held the CZ in her left. She constantly shifted her gaze to Jess and the growing crowd over and over. The grenade exploded as Hunk was beginning to help Jessica.

Two survivors of the blast of charred skin shambled into view. Ashley fired four rounds, and one hit the target. One zombie jerked back as the other pressed on.

"Screw it." Ashley dropped the CZ and reached for her pack and tossed another beacon grenade. She returned to the cliff, and the two pulled Jessica back onto the platform.

"Ashley, can you override the terminal?" Hunk panted.

"I'm on it." Ashley holstered her CZ. Jessica slowed down her breathing and reloaded the cruiser. Hunk walked with Ashley to the terminal firing when needed. Four more bodies dropped. Jessica took care of two before they could rise.

Ashley slung her rifle around and began to type rapidly on the keyboard. Hunk turned around to see a zombie rotating its head in a counterclockwise motion as the tongue crashed on the left side of Hunk's gasmask. The force stung his face as his skin was exposed to the cold, dank air. He whirled his head back with his left hand on his M9 fired into the sternum, and his right hand horizontally swiped his right hand with a blade. Before the fluids could flow he shoved the zombie back. He speedily checked his cheek, no blood, and nothing but a bruise at worst. He set his mask correctly and stood next to Ashley. Jessica unloaded her Blacktail on the last one until six more showed up.

Hunk looked dead on as Ashley tapped his shoulder. He looked at her as she passed him an object. "Use this." He wished she could see his fangs smiling as he pressed the button of the beacon grenade he tossed it to the edge of the platform on the opposite side. The remaining horde gathered around. As the grenade counted down one zombie unknowingly kicked it off. All of them turned around as Hunk aimed his GL-94.

"Just Fuck off." Hunk blasted the zombies over. When the smoke cleared the lights changed from emergency red to white.

Ashley jumped. "I did it!"

Jessica legs gave out and sat down and leaned against the pillar. "Let's never do that again." She exhaled.

"Agreed." Ashley and Hunk said simultaneously.

As the spinning descent into madness finally stopped a long metal bridge linked to the platform. Text appeared on the terminal saying "Have a nice day. "Hunk did a quick check on the platform putting one more bullet in the "dead" zombies. They gathered their bearings of breath, ammunition check, and water. They spent about half of their ammo.

"On the bright side, we won't be weighted down as much." Ashley chuckled.

Jessica rolled her eyes as Hunk took the lead of the walkway. The walls looked less decayed than the upper level. When the made it to the door, it was a motion sensor door, and it opened as Hunk was close enough. Behind it was another set of halls, but there was an open window on the right of them to show some kind of checkpoint. Because in the room on their left was large but the filing cabinets looked raided as withered papers were scattered all over.

Hunk walked to the doorway as monitored the hall. Ashley walked in began to scavenge the documents. Nothing more than test results of the licker experiments. Jessica walked into the room too.

Ashley kneeled down as she picked up a paper as it dissolved to the touch. "So what are we looking for exactly?"

"Nothing, in particular, we just need the untapped data that was left here. I'm not sure what though." Jessica admitted

Hunk did a quick laugh as he aimed down the hall.

Jessica ignored the remark as looked at the terminal. Ashley saw her, and she began to fiddle with it. It seemed nice, but it's out of commission. After a minute the group was on the move again. They went through the halls and found the hallway split in half. Hunk hugged the wall and Ashley did the opposite. Both nodded as both inched to the corners aimed down the halls as they snapped off the walls as he pointed down the halls.

Nothing on both ends. "You two go down that way, and I'll head this way."

Jessica tapped Ashley's back, and she nodded to Hunk. The halls lights were varied, some were lit, and others flickered. Hunk continued for another door to his right. Why the hell do these halls have to be so long? The door opened for the room to have a green vial case mounted to the wall then the door broke down. The top half leaned in and grinned to a halt. Hunk lowered his body as he entered the room carefully. It was in decent same apart from the dust as there was another terminal. Hunk looked upward to see a vial neatly secured as what were C4 plastic explosives in view of the glass. Birkin's lab was way more lenient.

He pressed the keyboard as it was password encrypted. He stored the thought of this head and turned around. Before him was an African Woman with a purple vest and aimed a pistol directly at him.

"Who are you?" The woman asked firmly.
