Chapter 26 - Backstabbed
"So...do we have a deal?"
"..."
"Think about it this way, we help you complete your mission much quicker. In return, you get us out of here with your chopper, that's all we're really getting out of it, you can even keep whatever money their paying you, we don't need it. So what do you say?"
"...Fine. But when it's time, you do everything I say until we get out of here."
"Sounds good enough to me."
"Alright. There's a factory not far from here, that's where the chopper is. We'll meet up there."
"Got it."
Raccoon Park, Park Plaza, 4:00 AM, 'Jill, Dante, Davis, Rav, Mia, Matt, Amy, Justin, Lucas'
There was no hesitation, Ian immediately sprinted towards the group, letting out what sounded like deep, heavy breaths. Jill and the others just watched as he continued to rush up the stairs towards them, still frozen in their place.
It was just then within the blink of an eye that Rav finally managed to speak up. "Shoot him Davis."
Davis gave her a shocked look, but not wanting to test her patience, he immediately took aim with his MP5 and fired at Ian. The shot went right through the officers arm, but it didn't even faze him or so much as slow him down.
He fired again but Ian evaded to the side, dodging the bullet much to the others surprise.
"Shoot him!" Rav said with a louder tone.
"I'm trying!" Davis replied as he fired another bullet which managed to hit Ian in the stomach but once again, it didn't stop him. He fired a few more times but the officer continued to dodge the bullets.
Jill approached Davis and held out her hand. "Give me the gun."
Davis handed her the MP5 and watched as she took aim at the officer.
Ian was almost within reach, when he reached the bottom of the stairs just below where the survivors stood, he let out a loud growl and jumped at them.
Everyone else raised their guns, but at the last second, Jill fired a bullet from the MP5 that darted its way right through Ian's head, finally stopping the officer. The group watched as Ian landed and tumbled down the stairs, after landing on flat ground he stopped and lay completely still.
A quick minute after, Dante and Davis both slowly approached the body of their former captain.
Jill slowly made her way over to the two officers and aimed her MP5 at the body.
Noticing this, Dante immediately stood in front of her, catching her attention. "He's dead Jill...he's dead."
Jill took one last look at the now dead Ian before giving Davis his MP5 back.
"What's their problem?" Matt asked as Jill approached him.
Jill sighed. "Ian Jacobs, he was Dante's captain and a former member of STARS."
"Oh..."
Davis sat down at the top of the stairs and looked up at the sky. "He didn't deserve this...no one deserves this."
Mia walked over to Dante and put her hand on his arm. "Dante? Are you okay?"
Dante didn't pay attention to her, he just continued to keep his sights on the body of his former captain. He couldn't stop thinking about all of the times that Captain Jacobs had helped him and supported him, he was like a father who had done everything to make him happy. Yet, here he was, nothing more than a shadow of his former self, and Dante couldn't do anything about it.
"Dante?"
He finally snapped out of his trance and turned to Mia who was giving him a look of worry. "What is it Mia?"
"Are you okay?" Mia asked.
Instead of replying, Dante just sighed and walked back up the stairs to Jill. "Come on Jill, we need to get moving."
Lucas spoke up. "We can't go yet, we still need to wait for-" Before he could finish he saw Jamie and others running towards them. "Nevermind."
As soon as they reached them, Jill spoke up. "Jamie, where did you go?"
Jamie shrugged. "Sorry about that, we were just taking a break, we've been walking around for a damn long time and we seriously need one."
Matt raised a brow, he started to give Jamie a suspicious look. "Something's off with him." He muttered to himself. "Hey Jamie."
Jamie turned to Matt. "What is it Matt?"
"Where's Alex and the others?"
Jamie turned his back to them to so they wouldn't see the smirk on his face. "They're dead."
"What?" Matt replied.
Jamie had taken the time to explain to everyone about how he, Alex and the others had continued to search for a way out of the city. He even explained how they came across more monsters and how they had started getting killed off one by one.
"Alex was cornered, he told me and the guys here to just run while he held off the Tyrant monster. So we did what we were told and just ran..." Jamie explained.
Everyone, except Matt and Dante, were shocked to hear all of this. Matt and Dante however continued to give Jamie a suspicious look, he didn't exactly have a hard time telling them what happened.
Jill sighed and turned to leave. "We don't have time to grieve over them, that's not what they would want, we need to get out of here now, I'm sure Alex would agree."
"Yeah, come on guys." Jamie said as he and the others followed Jill.
Dante then spoke up. "Something ain't right."
Matt folded his arms over his chest and nodded. "Heh, for once we agree on something."
"Yeah I know what you mean, Jamie's acting a bit a different, he didn't exactly seem sad when he was telling us about the others." Rav said.
Justin nodded. "Not to mention he's more talkative if you know what I mean, he didn't talk much before, why is he now?"
"You guys do bring up a good point. And you know what? I hardly believe Scott would let himself get killed by a zombie or any other monster. In fact I doubt any of them would let themselves get killed by any of these things." Lucas replied.
"Hmph..." Matt turned to leave. "This is a waste of time, if they're dead, they're dead." He said while walking away.
"Asshole." Dante muttered. "Come on guys."
The survivors moved on to catch up with Jill and the others, Dante took one last look at his former captain before following.
Raccoon Park, Parks Rear Gate, 4:30 AM, 'Jill, Jamie, Stuart, Marc, Nathan, Dante, Davis, Rav, Mia, Matt, Amy, Justin, Lucas'
The group of survivors had walked on through several areas of the park, no one tried to make conversation during the time that they walked. It was no surprise though, they had been through so much that they were starting to get so exhausted that even talking would be too much for them.
After walking for what seemed like forever, the group stopped when they noticed the gate in front of them was chained shut, preventing them from continuing on.
"So...what now?" Lucas asked.
Jill took a look at the padlock and then turned to Amy. "Amy, do you still have that key?"
"Yeah..." Amy took the key out of her pocket and inserted it into the padlock. Fortunately, it fit. "There we go." She said as she opened the padlock and removed the chains.
Justin picked the chains up and smirked. "Heh..."
The others just gave him a confused look, it was only after he rolled the chains up that they realized what he was doing. "You're actually gonna use that as a weapon?" Lucas asked.
Justin shrugged. "Gotta make good use with whatever you can find right?"
"Whatever you say." Lucas replied.
"Come on, keep an eye out for any zombies." Jill said as she moved on.
The survivors made their way up a small set of stairs and arrived a large wooden bridge.
Lucas sighed. "Dammit."
"What?" Jill said giving him a confused look.
"I've had bad luck with bridges in the past." Lucas replied.
Rav spoke up. "Relax, it's not as if you're gonna have to jump off or anything, just watch where you're walking."
Jamie ran on ahead and stopped halfway across the bridge, up ahead was a large facility. "That's it, that's the place he was talking about."
"Jamie?"
"Heh..." To everyones shock, Jamie swiftly turned around and aimed his gun at them. "Alright guys, you can drop the act."
Confused at his words, Jill finally understood what he meant when Stuart and Marc walked over to Jamie and immediately turned their guns on them.
"What are you guys doing!" Lucas said as he aimed his shotgun at them in defence.
No reply, instead someone else spoke. "I wouldn't do that if I were you."
Everyone turned around to see Nathan holding Mia with a gun against her head. "Try anything, and...well, you know." Mia tried to break free from Nathan's grip but he was too strong.
"Nathan you bastard!" Rav shouted.
Nathan, with Mia in his arm, slowly walked through the group until he reached Jamie and the others halfway across the bridge. "So, what now?"
Jamie lowered his gun. "We get moving, we have a chance to get out of here and we are not wasting it."
"What are you talking about Jamie..." Jill said.
Jamie turned to her. "That's none of your business."
Dante spoke up next. "I knew there was something different about you."
"Well bravo, good job on noticing, too bad you noticed too late." Jamie said.
"Where's Alex and the others!" Jill shouted.
Jamie grinned and turned to leave. "I told you already, they're dead, and unfortunately, it looks as if you guys are about to join them soon. Come on guys, we're getting out of here."
Nathan shoved Mia forward into the others, bringing most of them down.
"BASTARD!" Lucas rushed forward and threw a punch but Nathan grabbed his fist and stopped his strike with ease.
A slight smirk made its way onto Nathan's face as he started to twist Lucas's arm. "OW! MY ARM!"
"Weakling, know who you're up against before you attempt anything." Nathan said before grabbing Lucas and throwing him into the others, bringing them all down except Jill and Matt.
"Sucks to be you guys, haha!" Marc laughed before running on ahead. "Hahaha!"
Stuart kept his gun aimed at the group, Nathan nudged his shoulder before moving on to catch up with Marc. "After we saved you...this is how you repay us? You wouldn't be alive right now if it wasn't for us." Dante said as he glared daggers at Stuart.
Jamie smirked and turned back to them. "You know what, I can't risk having you cause trouble for me, so I'll just kill you all right here." Jamie raised his gun and aimed it at Dante.
Matt slowly moved his hand down to the holster where his revolver was.
Stuart saw the fear in Mia's eyes, for some reason, she reminded him of Louise. "I'm not gonna stoop to this level a second time." He said to himself in his head.
"Sorry Jill, I'm just doing what I think is for the best." Jamie said as he looked at Jill.
Everyone braced themselves but before Jamie could pull the trigger, Stuart put his hand over Jamie's gun and lowered it, causing Jamie to give Stuart a confused glare. "What are you doing Stuart?"
"That's enough Jamie, we've already done enough damage, we don't need to kill anyone else." Stuart said.
Jamie and Stuart just exchanged glares, Stuart remained unfazed while Jamie tried to keep his composure. Eventually though Jamie backed off and nodded with a smirk. "Ok...fine." He turned around and went on ahead. "Let's move."
Stuart sighed and turned to Dante. "You're alive because of me...now we're even." He said before following Jamie.
Dante and Jill watched him leave before turning to Mia. "Mia, are you okay?" Dante asked as he kneeled down next to her.
Mia nodded. "Yes, I'm fine."
"Good..." Dante said and got to his feet. "They are NOT getting away with this! I'll be back!" Dante ran on ahead to catch up with Jamie and the others.
"Dante wait! Dammit!" Davis shouted before following.
Justin turned to the others. "I'm gonna go and give them a hand." He said before running on ahead.
"I can't believe this, Jamie...why would he do this?" Jill muttered to herself. "He was always so quiet, but he was friendly, he was Alex's good friend. Why would he do something like this?"
"Hmph..." Matt crossed his arms over his chest and turned to the large facility up ahead. "Jamie's just a stupid little asshole, it's his choice, let him do whatever the fuck he wants. It's only gonna get him killed in the end."
Jill faced him. "Matt..."
Rav spoke up. "Jill we need to get moving, the others are gonna need our help. We'll deal with Jamie if we catch him, but more importantly, we have to find a way out of here."
"Right..." Jill was about to move on but was stopped by a sound. She turned around to see something shoot out through the wooden boards of the bridge. "No..." She muttered as a large tentacle shot through another wooden board, then another and another, forcing the group to slowly back away across the bridge.
"RUN!" Lucas shouted.
The survivors tried to run across the bridge but stopped when the large tentacle grabbed onto one of the poles on the bridge. Everyone backed away and watched as something came flying up from below and landed on the bridge in front of them, Nemesis.
"STARS..."
"You gotta be kidding! What does it take to kill this guy!" Lucas shouted again and aimed his shotgun at Nemesis.
Matt smirked and quickly pulled out his revolver. "I've been waiting for this."
Jill had to think quick, the others went on ahead but Nemesis was now blocking their way. She saw the river below and, realizing they wouldn't get through, she made a very crazy decision.
"JUMP!" Jill shouted.
Nemesis roared and swung its large tentacled arm at her but she dodged it in time and without hesitation, jumped off of the bridge. "AH!"
"JILL!" Rav turned to Lucas and grabbed him. "COME ON LUCAS!"
"WHAT! NO NO WAIT-AAAAAHHHHH!" Lucas screamed out just as Rav dragged him off of the bridge.
Amy took in a quick deep breath and jumped off next.
Mia looked to see it was a bit far down, she was about to jump but hesitated.
"Come on, let's go for round two shall we?" Matt said as he twirled his revolver.
Nemesis growled at him, but Matt decided to not waste anytime and immediately fired six shots from his revolver. The bullets successfully hit the monster but only managed to push it back a step or two.
Matt quickly took six bullets out of his pocket and reloaded, realizing one wasn't enough, Matt reached for his holster and pulled out a second revolver. "Ok, let's try two!"
However, before Matt could fire, Nemesis swung its large tentacled arm at him, forcing him to jump away and let out a low growl as he landed hard on his back.
"Matt!" Mia shouted and rushed over to Matt. "Matt are you okay?"
Matt didn't pay attention to her and kept his eyes on Nemesis. However, realizing he couldn't win on the bridge, Matt quickly put his revolvers away, grabbed Mia and jumped right off of the bridge. "AH!" Mia screamed out just as Matt jumped off with her in his arms.
Nemesis let out a loud roar before walking on ahead towards the facility. "STARS..."
Authors Notes: Sorry if this chapter seems short, but since I'm nearing the end of the story, I'm hoping to reach a certain part of the actual story so I can add it all into the final chapter. In more simpler terms, I'm hoping to get the final fight and everyones escape into the final chapter, that said, the next two chapters will be short aswell but some major events will still take place. I'm sure some of you were expecting Jamie and the others to turn on everyone eventually, completely predictable now that I think about it. To make things worse, everyone is now split up, Dante, Davis and Justin have gone after Jamie and the others, while Jill, Rav, Mia, Amy, Lucas and Matt had to go off course and jump off of the bridge because of Nemesis. Shadow and Wraith are watching, Carlos and Mikhail are still somewhere and Nicholai...well, he's about to do something that Jamie and the others can benefit from. Anyway, hope you liked the chapter, as usual, please Review, your thoughts are always appreciated.
