'Dammit how could Jeffrey be so stupid!' The head of the
department couldn't believe his misfortune.
'Sir, if I may
say. The door can't have just shut itself behind him, they are
metal doors. Someone else must've shut it.' An armed soldier
looked around the room for any signs of a clue. 'Is there no
cameras here?'
'Afraid not, we had to take them out as the previous set was faulty. Why would someone else trap such an important man in a freezer, at this point in time too? If we wish for any anti-virus we cannot allow set backs like this!' The scientist was scared and angry.
'Don't worry the U.B.C.S have been appointed to this situation!' The armed man saluted.
'U.B.C.S?' The scientist had heard the abbreviation before, but hadn't a clue what it meant.
'Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service! We're here to reduce any of these mishaps.' The soldier was armed with an M16 assault rifle and a side pack, which held spare magazines.
'Yea, we'll need it.' The scientist was unsure of how much the soldier knew about Umbrella, so he decided to change the subject. 'Your name is?'
'Gary Gargado, Beta Platoon, Squad C!' The soldier saluted.
'At ease man, just do your job and investigate this.' The scientist went hunting for aspirin.
Alex was on a shift with Sam when he was walking down the streets reading the main headline – "Important S.T.A.R.S member, suspended!"
'This is not good!' Alex folded the paper and tossed it in the
bin.
'Things aren't going the way we hoped…' Sam kicked a
can.
'Jill's suspended, Chris has been posted out of town and Brad isn't exactly the best S.T.A.R.S member. Why the hell did Chris not argue!' Alex felt a little betrayed.
'Chris didn't want to end up like Jill I guess. What about Barry?' Sam looked around for any signs of trouble, but the streets were quiet.
'He's gone too, not sure why. Why the fuck does this have to happen!' Alex was annoyed. Things were going further downhill, which Alex didn't believe as possible.
'Hey officer! There's a fight around the block! Come on follow me!' A scared civilian told them. Without the chance to reply, they were forced to break into a sprint to catch up with the man. A crowd of people were grouped around a fight, it was even 2 on 2, until one of them pulled out a knife. Sam fired a shot in the air and everyone fell silent, 'Alright break it up!' The armed fighter dropped his knife and gave up straight away.
'You fucking wuss!' His partner scooped up the blade and stabbed the knife hard into Sam's chest.
'Sam!' Alex hooked the attacker and pulled out his gun and aimed it at his downed opponent. 'Make a move and I will kill you!' Alex turned to the crowd around them, 'Don't just stand there phone an ambulance!'
Chaz walked away, feeling a little guilty that he hadn't helped, but he was only there for the pictures. He had got one of the attack on Sam which he was sure would get him a bundle of cash. He had no idea why he hadn't helped. Chaz arrived at the news building and his boss was standing there waiting for Chaz, 'Alright let's go get these developed shall we?' An hour later Chaz left the news building with $250, his pictures were much appreciated. He walked down the street with his hands in his jeans, hoping that Sam was okay. He knew Sam was tough, but the wound looked bad, then two people stepped in front of Chaz.
'I saw you with the camera! What if I didn't want my picture taken huh!?' the thug stepped up to Chaz, but just received a swift head butt.
'Back down asshole!' Chaz began to walk again, but the other man grabbed his shoulder and threw him on the ground. Chaz hissed as a sharp pain ran up his back, but he just shook it and got back up. He walked towards the other man who went to hook him, but Chaz ducked then got an upper cut in at his attacker. 'What the fuck do I care if I have permission for your picture or not? You should be rotting in a cell!' Chaz walked on and to no surprise the men didn't try fighting back.
Gary stood there, bored shitless. He was mainly annoyed he hadn't had a chance to fire the M16 for a month and a half. Gary wasn't allowed to leave his assigned position. He was not allowed to interfere with anything at all. Basically he felt like a statue. He checked his watch, 'Three more hours!' Gary groaned. A high-pitched alarm went off and the lights went red. 'What the hell!' A voice echoed throughout the room –
"Code 1745! One of the containment cells has been opened please evacuate building! All U.B.C.S soldiers seek the threat!"
Gary cursed and was wondering whether it was better to be bored and safe, or clueless and in danger. It was his first time in the building and he had no idea what the fuck was going on in the building. He held his M16 high as he walked through offices, which he didn't recognise. He heard someone screaming downstairs so he ran to the back of the office where the stairs were. He ran down them rapidly and into the office on his current floor. Someone was eating one of the scientists. What was worse was that it looked like the scientist was still alive. Gary raised his rifle, 'Hey you what the fuck do you think you're doing!' The cannibal turned to face him, then started towards him. Gary fired a three shot burst at the cannibal, which Gary expected to stop the man, but all it did was jerk the cannibals body about a little. 'What the fuck!' Gary fired two bursts, but they just had the same effect as the first. The scientist tried to say something, but Gary couldn't hear him so he booted the cannibal with enough force to knock it down, just so he could hear the scientist.
'All it takes is one shot to the head…' the scientist passed away. Gary spun around in time to see the cannibal rising, 'If you say so sir!' Gary fired a burst at the cannibal's head, which finally neutralized it for good. Gary turned to the scientist, 'what do I do now! I don't even know where the containment cells are and at this rate by the time I get there we could be screwed!'
'Take this card key,' the scientist coughed and held to the huge
wound in his side, 'use the elevator and take it to the fourteenth
floor.'
'What are they?' Gary felt like he should know what
he's up against.
'Monsters, don't hesitate use a headshot. You'll know one when you see one or hear it. They don't feel pain.' The scientist lay on the table.
'Thank you sir! I'll send someone up about your wounds,' Gary turned but the scientist hissed.
'No! I am beyond help now same for anyone else who get's bit by one of those things. Soldier as you can see these creatures were human, but they're infected with a virus, turning them into, monsters. If you see someone you recognise hurt leave them behind. If you see someone turn into one of those creatures then kill them.' The scientist took deep breaths. 'Go quickly!' Gary swiped the card key at the elevator and stepped inside. When the metal doors shut, Gary heard a gunshot causing him to cringe. He had guessed the scientist had shot himself. Gary was unsure of what was going on, he had heard about Umbrella and a few of there dodgy experiments, but murders? Suicides? Infection? 'They had really screwed themselves over this time' Gary thought to himself. The elevator pinged to tell him he arrived, but when the doors opened he could tell he'd arrived anyway. He stepped out into a room with a corpse surrounded by four of those monsters and they all noticed him.
'Oh fuck!'
Kyle was investigating the murder scene with Tristan and a few FBI members then his phone rang and Kyle held up a hand to show he'd be a minute. 'Alex not the best of times.'
'Sam got stabbed Kyle!' Alex told him and Kyle became as shocked
as Sam sounded.
'How? No don't answer that, I'll talk to you
in class dude, I'm caught up for now.' Kyle hung up and looked
around. The FBI agent was saying things so his partner could write
them down. 'Jeffrey Rites, found in the chemical freezer. It seems
he's suffered a heavy fall like his whole body just stopped working
when he fell.'
Kyle noticed a burn mark on Jeffrey's shirt, which was frozen over, but visibly black. 'Stun gun! He must've been hit with a Stun gun!' The FBI agent looked at Kyle surprised.
'Yes good call. Note that down.' The agent continued looking around.
After almost an hour the agent stood up, 'Well that's that. I'm afraid we can't find out who it was with what we have. And knowing the amount of people who have access to this building, I'm afraid it's a lost case.' Kyle was shocked.
'Wait you mean to say, he's dead and you guys can't do fuck all about it!' Kyle didn't understand.
'That's what I'm saying. Why have you a problem?' The FBI agent stood up.
'No, no problem at all!' Kyle stormed out.
Alex sat at the back of chemistry with Rachael, Anne and Kyle. Alex had explained to Kyle about Sam and Kyle had told Sam about the murder. They both became fairly depressed, 'Why the fuck is this happening!' Alex slammed the table causing Miss Wong to turn to him.
'Are you ok Alex?' She stopped writing on the board.
'Just dandy…' Alex continued writing.
'Is Sam ok?' Rachael asked worried.
'Yea, the doctors say it's a minor wound to what it could've been.' Alex began swinging on his chair.
'Well I think we should go visit him!' Rachael felt that it would bring them all together again.
'Yea we could stay there, they always have spare beds at hospitals!' Anne was all for Rachael's idea.
'I don't know guys, I mean with everything that's going on…' Rachael glared at Alex as if to say he would be the next one on a hospital bed, 'But sure I guess we can ask the doctors.' Rachael smiled and Kyle didn't argue, he thought it'd be great.
'Fine but Chaz has gotta come too!' Kyle thought if they were all going to be there, he was counted too.
'Of course!' Alex was actually looking forward to them all being together; it'd be like when they were younger. Alex got sidetracked when Jane walked in the room and swiftly spoke with Miss Wong. 'Give me a minute class!' Miss Wong left the classroom.
'What would Jane want with Miss Wong? Didn't Jane drop out?' Rachael quizzed them.
'I really don't know, but something is wrong about that Miss Wong.' Alex was thinking of any possibilities that made sense. Miss Wong walked in a little paler in face, but as she strutted by he saw at the bottom of her right foot was a handgun clip.
Gary had cleared most of the floor, including half of his team thanks to this infection. He had collected his downed teammates ammo; plus he had only been forced to use a grenade once. A voice echoed around the room he was in, 'this room will be locked down in ninety seconds! Any survivors take the elevator to the seventh floor! I repeat, this room will be locked down in ninety seconds! Any survivors take the elevator to the seventh floor!' Gary ran out the room and silenced the creature that started towards him, he ran by several dead bodies. Scientists, U.B.C.S soldiers, and security guards you name it. Gary still heard gunfire so his hopes were up when he got to the elevator. He left it open for a while and shot any of the infected that got to close to him. 'Thirty seconds remaining till lockdown!' Then a soldier ran towards Gary shouldering someone, panting for breath, 'Let's ….get…the fuck…outta here.' Gary hit the number seven. He recognised the soldier who was helping the other. 'Anyone else Shane?' Shane shook his head. The elevator pinged and the trio were greeted with armed guards and people in bio suits. 'What the hell?' One of the suited men started waving a device over him till it went green.
'He's clean!' The suited man moved onto Shane, 'Same here!' Then he moved onto the other soldier and the light went red. '68 infection! Gun him down!'
'No wait!' The infected soldier held up his hand, but three of the armed guards had already begun planting bullets in his body.
'Bag him and burn his body!' The suited man ordered.
'What's going on here?' Gary stepped up.
The suited man handed Gary $4000 in cash, 'You're not paid to ask questions, split it!'
