Chapter 13 No way out
(Location: Low Temperature Testing Lab West Area NEST Umbrella Laboratory underground of Raccoon City Arklay county mid western USA)
Jaune had to give a sigh for like the third time while Claire cursed. This wasn't working. So far they put the dispersal cartridge in the cold system control, but nothing happened. It keeps getting the error message. Trying another time wasn't going to help, something was missing. The cartridge must be filled with something in order to put it here. Obviously it has to be the antiviral agent. The duo weren't in a happy mood. Sure, they knew getting the agent wasn't going to be easy. After seeing the map of the lab, it was going to take them a while to find what they're looking for. They shouldn't be wasting too much time because Sherry's life was on the line. Without the antiviral agent she will mutate like her father. Panicking wasn't going to help or getting angry so he convinced his female companion to back track their steps through the facility. Honestly, they still didn't know where to get the agent.
Thanks to the information they have gathered, they knew it was in the west area of the lab. But they weren't exactly sure where. It has to be somewhere around the greenhouse area. Back tracking sucks, especially when they will have to encounter those plant zombies, or veggie zombies. They've killed plenty of undead here, plus two lickers. Who knows what else will be waiting for them. The team left the low temp testing lab as they headed back to the greenhouse. Just as the Arc was expecting, more plant zombies were present. Claire was too pissed as she used her acid rounds on all of them. Not leaving a single one for the blond to take out. She emptied her grenade launcher as she reloaded plenty of flame rounds. The huntsman gulped, she can be scary when she's angry. And he made the mistake to angered her. He was lucky she apologized to him and they were cool now.
Returning to the greenhouse control room, they gazed at the short map of the place. That's when they noticed there was something they haven't checked in yet. Because it was locked. Something in the Drug Testing Lab. Both knew what to do as the inserted the password that was at the bottom of the DNA Helix trophy on the electronic panel. Whatever was locked in that place, was now unlocked. That was a relief maybe, they can finally progress. So the duo went back and saw the fence that was downed the first time they came was lifted. And the red light was now green. That was obviously what they unlocked when they used the password. They took a closer look at the machine. There were three testing tubes with some kind of green liquid, one of them had a small tube to send the liquid elsewhere, probably to one of the other two and one had a red line like it was seeing that's the level where the liquid must be pour down. A green button with a drawing of the dispersal cartridge, a red button with two arrows going around in a circle form and a blue button with the same drawing.
Most importantly, it had a round shape hole. This must be where they can get the antiviral agent and after that, sending it to the cold storage. As soon as they put the dispersal cartridge, the AI said "manual mode engaged. Adjust amount of solution to match cartridge capacity". Somehow, they didn't like the sound of that. Meaning they will have to administer the agent on their own. No automatic mode. As always they have to do everything the hard way in a zombie outbreak. Not to mention they weren't any instructions on this thing, making it harder for the two. As they started spinning the tubes and filling the cartridge, Jaune and Claire realized this was a real pain in the ass. Filling it right in the red line was hard and annoying. It was taking every once of patience the two have. The blond huntsman heard the brunette cursing softly, he didn't blame her.
The people of this place must have the patience of a saint to do this. Minutes were passing by as the duo were still trying to solve this puzzle. Seriously with all of the technology this facility has. Couldn't they have created an automatic mode. Apparently, it was too much to ask. Eventually, after almost forty minutes they actually did it. Pouring the right amount into the tube. A yellow light turned on as the green liquid was leaving from the tube. Then, the dispersal cartridge emerged filled with the solution. Both smiled in relief. Now, they needed to return to the low tempt testing lab and put the cartridge in the cold. As they left the drug testing room, there weren't any more plant zombies. Looks like that was it for them. The team took the chance as they climbed down the stairs heading back. Entering the cold storage control room, they went back to the machine.
Putting the dispersal cartridge with the solution the screen read" OK". The mechanical arm inside picked it up as the AI said" cooling sequence in progress". The mechanical finished as it send it back and it was released in the hole. Claire picked it up, now it was colored blue. The herbicide was complete, with this they will be able to kill all the vines and free that man that is holding the purple wristband electronic chip. The AI finished with" cooling complete". Jaune smiled, happy to know they were close to getting the cure. He was suddenly hugged by the Redfield from the joy. The Arc blushed, it will always be that kind of effect whenever the brunette will embrace him or having her too close to him. But they weren't out of the woods yet. They needed to return to the greenhouse control room and our the herbicide. Now, it was only a matter of time. Both were really hoping there was still time to help Sherry. The duo immediately left heading back.
It really surprised the blond the many things they have to do to get the necessary things. It was never easy, be ready to bust your ass in dire situations during a zombie outbreak Jaune was happy with the results but he knew things are bound to get worse eventually. Ever since arriving into this world his knowledge from the Living Dead has helped him a lot. The blond kept it in mind whenever things are going all right, they're bound to get worse one way or the other. And he was right. When they arrived to the greenhouse, it was filled with plant zombies. Where did they all came from. There were probably ten or twelve of them. It was impossible to get pass them without them capturing you. They didn't had a choice but to fight. After getting close to save Sherry, they weren't stopping here.
The Arc threw a hand grenade blowing up a few while Claire was having a field burning them to hell with the flame rounds. They were extremely effective on them. The plant zombies were vulnerable to fire just like the lickers. It wasn't long until they were all burned to death. The duo returned to the control room, putting the tube in the round hole. The AI said" dispensing solution now" Outside of the greenhouse it started raining the herbicide hitting all of the vines. And soon, they started dying until they all looked like they all dried up. Like weedkiller. Hopefully the plant holding that body have let it go and they can finally get the purple electronic chip. Suddenly the AI spoke again saying" Warning you have dispersed a dangerous solution without authorization. Your actions have been logged and you may be subject to disciplinary measures". That didn't sounded good.
Sure it was too late, and everyone was dead by now. But at least they did the favor of removing those wretched vines. Getting punished for doing the right thing is messed up. They returned to the greenhouse where that body fell and he was on the ground. Claire took purple chip upgrading the wristband to its third and final level. Senior staff level. With this, they will have access to the highest secure places in the facility. And maybe with it, they can finally get the antiviral agent. Sherry's time was running out. More plant zombies emerged when they got the wristband upgraded. Perfect timing indeed. Jaune warned the brunette not to waste flame round on these things. So both, switched to their hand guns. Besides, it was only two, compared to later where there were around ten. With the combine firepower, they were able to killed with a few shots. Turning a corner, there was another one.
This time, Jaune has taken his Remington shot gun and shot it twice, before blowing its head off. He reloaded while taking his handgun again and reloading it too. Better to be prepare than feeling sorry later. They thought it was over, how wrong they were. As they were taking the path that will lead them out of the greenhouse. The duo was greeted by more plant zombies. There was no end to these freaks. They ran, trying to avoid as many as they could, while using flash grenades to blind them. Giving them time to escape. Jaune was already sicked of this place, they did what they needed to do. Now, it was off to their next destination. As they finally reached the entrance their eyes were on a computer that was on a small counter. They didn't noticed it before, the first time they came here. Eyes were on the name of the person's inbox e-mail.

04:51 Wayne Li
Neither of the two didn't said a word. They knew this will eventually happened. Dr. Li attempted to stop the vines from growing and taking over the greenhouse. But Cartwright caught him red handed since he had different intentions. They believed he had orders from Umbrella to eliminate everyone and make sure their special forces get the G-Virus from William. Every single one, were nothing but pawn to the pharmaceutical company. And at the same time, they were all victims. Without looking back, the duo left to the hobby and arriving at the center of the facility. Using the senior staff level wristband they managed the other control panel. The path to the East Area has opened. Here's hoping they don't get into much trouble trying to find that antiviral agent. This place was really big and their biggest fears was not making it on time to save Sherry.
They carefully crossed the path with no railing entering through the door with the purple screen. It was dark, so Claire used the flashlight. They immediately saw a body of another special forces soldier. He was holding something. The Redfield recognized it as a video cassette. Maybe its surveillance from the lab that they wanted to take from falling into the wrong hands. The brunette took it, it might become useful later. There was also a hand grenade next to the body, so they took that too. Arriving at the dark room they saw another modulator on the wall with the letters" OSS" in yellow. The team got to work taking out the signal modulator. After they put it on the modulator as the red light turned green. Now the area had the power back on not needing the flashlight anymore. There was a television with VHS. This was the perfect chance to see the content of the video cassette.
Jaune was confused by the sight. That was really a television, so antique. In Remnant all there was are holographic screens. It was the same with the VHS and the cassette. But he didn't complain as he saw the brunette putting the cassette on the black machine. There was some static from the television, until it became clear. It was showing a blond man in a white lab coat taking something from a machine. Test tubes. The man was obviously Williams Birkin, Sherry's father. He put the tubes on a black steel case.
*Got eyes on the G-Virus.*
*We're going in.*
The screen was now showing the special forces team infiltrating the room where William stood. He gasped protecting the case with his life.
*Doctor Birkin, you'll come along with us quietly.*
*You think I didn't know you were coming? This is my life's work! I'm not handing over anything!*
*We have our orders, Doctor Birkin. I'll ask you one more time….*
The man made a sudden move and the soldiers opened fire on him, his body was covered in blood. Jaune and Claire gasped at the sight.
*Stop! Hold your fire!*
One of them checked his pulse while another showed his face on the soldier's camera.
*What the fuck were you thinking!? Our orders were to bring him alive! We're in sir, but we had a snafu. Target resisted, we had to take him out. That's correct, sir. Roger that. Just the samples then. Let's move!*
One took the silver briefcase containing the samples of the G-Virus as they left. Then, the camera feedback was cut off. The Arc and the Redfield stood silent for a few minutes. What they've just seen. Umbrella getting rid of pawns they no longer need. The footage showed them opening fire on Williams, killing him. He's supposed to be dead. Then how. Unless, he was barely alive and the special forces didn't noticed. His pulse must have been weak. They were also in a hurry, so they could have made the mistake. Honestly Jaune didn't know. The man's body was covered in blood. Without aura receiving so many bullets was fatal. He should be dead and yet, he wasn't. Not after fighting him twice, no longer human.
"There's no way he could have survived that."
"But he did, somehow" followed Claire" unless...He took the G-Virus."
Blue eyes widened in shock" he injected himself with it?"
"It's the only explanation to why he was able lived. But we know, it went wrong."
"I thought he was infected by accident. But to intentionally get infected…William's obsession with it was that strong that he was willing to become a monster for it. It probably matters more to him than his own family" the Arc's eyes narrowed.
Next to the VHS and television was a compute showing another inbox of an email.

You are under suspicion of breaching your contract with the Umbrella Corporation. It has become clear that you have claimed ownership of the" G" project, and have been in unauthorized contact with the US military. Please respond to the investigation committee's summons within 24 hours.
"All of this says they were planning to back stab William from the start" said the huntsman.
Claire nodded but the last email worried her. According to this Jane Doyle she believes Birkin was in contact with the US military. Why, and what for. If that's the case, then the government must already know about Umbrella's intentions. That they're not the great pharmaceutical company they claim to be. What if he was planning to sell the G-Virus to the military. Showing how obsessed he was with it, says otherwise. But who knows, with the right price, he could have change his mind. She was thinking too much about this. It was impossible to see soldier's of this country injecting themselves with such virus. Unless they want their own personal mutant army. They wouldn't go that far. But this made her think clearly on her brother's decision to go to Europe. After what he witnessed and after what she witnessed, it's no wonder why he will attempt to expose Umbrella to the world. Even if she was still angry at him.
The duo finally resumed their search as they went to another purple screen door that read" Bioreactors Room". First, there was an area to change clothing into a safety protection suit. Then, there was a straight corridor with some bright neon blue lights and some water sparklers on the walls. Guess it was to prevent any kind of contamination. Both got wet a little before proceeding to the next door. Another straight corridor, but it had a dark pit like in the intersection area that leads to the west and east area. However, the path had railings, thank goodness for that. At the end, there was another purple screen door. As the duo entered, there were some weird looking red lights on the wall and ahead were strange things on large tubes with water. Eyes, arms but they were all mutated. They must have been the first prototypes created by the G-Virus. There was a computer nearby.
Research Diary
Embryo Growth Observations
(Subject 449)
After the G embryo was implanted in the subject, we made a 50cm incision from the chest to the abdomen and began our observations. With the help of medical team, the subject's consciousness level was kept between 15(lucid)-GCS 10. However, the subject's consciousness level deteriorated, and further observation was deemed unnecessary. The subject was then disposed of.
Jaune glared knowing exactly the meaning of the word" dispose".
Breeding Rate Observations
(Subject 501)
The G-Virus was administered to subject 501. 501 mutated into G form and was introduced to a group of 30 subjects. After 2 hours 36 minutes, it was observed that all but one of the test subjects has been implanted with a G embryo. All subjects were dispose of. (One subject broke down during experimentation and took their own life).
The Arc shook his head along with Claire. Looks like the person that mutated was able to retain a human mind and decided to commit suicide than to continue living as a monster. They have seen enough of Umbrella's cruelty.
T-Virus Resistance Experimentation
(Subject 628, 639)
We administered the G-Virus to subject 628, who had shown slight resistance to the T-Virus. The virus was then introduced to subject 639, with whom 628 had a close relationship. 628 showed some signs of resistance, but had been implanted with an embryo after 24 minutes. T-Virus resistance does nothing to stop the mental deterioration caused by the G-Virus.
So they were also testing the T-Virus too. If it was capable with G. Looks like it's was a failure. The blond hasn't forgotten he got bit by a zombie. He had no idea how much time he has left before he turns. After finishing reading the diary they saw a steel medium size door before them. They took their best guess that must be where the antiviral agent is, hopefully. They tried to open it but they couldn't. It wouldn't budge. However, they noticed something below the door. It had a very similar symbol of a triangle with two snakes crossing each other, with various words, Creation, Metamorphosis and Reincarnation. They have seen it before. Both of their eyes widened in realization. Claire has taken Sherry's pendant and turn it over from behind. It had the same symbol. Could this thing be the lock to open the door. That means, the pendant could be the key to open it.
The Redfield has put the pendant on the small hole and it worked. The door slid opened showing two jars inside. The brunette took one, this has to be it. The antiviral agent. They finally have it. This also answered a big question. Why chief Irons wanted the pendant so much. Because it's the key to open the cabinet where the antiviral agent is being kept. Maybe he was planning to sell both the G-Virus and the cure. Guess they will never know. Jaune took the pendant as the cabinet's door closed. Could this be the reason why Annette gave Sherry the pendant in the first place. If that was true, then she knew of the constant danger the little girl will be. Basically she put a blank on her back. Blue eyes narrowed in anger, that better not be the case or the huntsman's trust on the woman will diminish. Still, a family portrait pendant is a very good idea for a key. But not if it puts the life of an eight year old in danger.
"We finally got it" the Redfield smiled.
"About time. We have what we came here for. Let's head back-"
Jaune was caught off guard as Claire hugged him. His cheeks reddened at the sudden action. He heard a soft sob coming from the brunette. It has to be relief that they can finally safe Sherry. Or it could be of his remaining time as a human. Or maybe, both. As the embrace was broken, she kept staring at him. Their eyes met for a moment. He didn't wanted to interrupt the moment, but they were in a hurry.
"What was that for? Not, that I don't mind" he didn't wanted to sound rude.
"You're still you…."
"I'm okay" he smiled.
"You better not be lying to me or so help me I-"
"I'm fine Claire. I mean it" it was strange that he still hasn't felt the effects of the T-Virus yet.
"Then, let's get going. Sherry needs us."
It was a pain in the ass, but it was worth it. After everything they did to get the antiviral agent. They needed to make a herbicide to destroy so many vines, to released the body of someone who had the senior staff clearance, purple chip. In which it was annoying making it remembering that headache of a puzzle. Looks like things are finally looking their way. Yeah right, Jaune knew something bad is bound to happen. Living Dead logic or zombie outbreak logic. Also his bad feeling was so strong. His conscious was basically screaming at him" something bad is going to happen". The huntsman knew it, they have the antiviral agent. It's not going to be that easy returning to Sherry just like that. As they left the room heading into the straight corridor with the railing, the Arc took his shot gun. As they were about to leave something destroyed the ceiling, landing behind them.
Jaune cursed mentally, damn feeling never gets it wrong. It was William again. This thing really seems like it was unstoppable. It wasn't going to let them leave. They will have to fight it again.
"Your ass again!?" exclaimed Claire.
"William!" Annette arrived holding a flare gun" this ends NOW!"
Instead of releasing a flare it fire some kind of liquid hitting the G creature. It was able to put on its knee. Whatever it was, it was strong. It finally felt to the ground like it was downed. The three walked closer to the bio creature.
"Is this thing really your husband?" asked the Redfield.
"It is. Or to be more precise, it was my husband."
"We saw the video when Umbrella's special forces infiltrated the lab. They accidentally shot him. He should have been dead" said the blond.
"He should. But then he injected himself with G and he was able to survived. But at the cost of losing his humanity" Annette's eyes softened" I should've killed him while I had the chance...I don't know why...I just couldn't do it."
"He's your husband it's understandable you will hesitate" replied the Arc.
"And now, millions of lives are at stake for my mistake. The lives that have been lost in this city will be nothing compare to the ones if William makes it out of here. Though, he was my husband we were married more to our work than each other. All the better reason to have shot him back then."
"But what about Sherry-how could you just leave her all alone? And while Raccoon City burn to hell."
"I couldn't let my daughter grow in a world with the G-Virus in it."
"That's just an excuse" Jaune finally glared at the woman" you were never there for her when she needed you the most. The poor girl was so scared out of her mind, she's been searching for you this whole time. Who knows what could had happen to her if Claire and I never ran into her. You didn't even helped us get the antiviral agent when you said you were going to treat her. We had to do everything ourselves."
"The antiviral agent...You have it…?" the blond woman was shocked seeing the filled jar the brunette was holding.
"You and your husband got her into so much danger. All she wanted was for you to be in her life more. It's natural for a child to want to be by their mother's side. Even that pendant you gave her doesn't mean squat to her. Specially when it's nothing but a key. Do you know because of it, chief Irons kidnapped her?"
"What?" she was shocked before glaring" that bastard actually laid a hand on her?!
"He took her because he wanted the pendant but she accidentally dropped it and we got it. So he asked us to bring it to him or he was planning to kill her."
"That son of a bitch…." Annette was so angry thinking of the police chief" I never trusted him in the first place. I had a feeling he was somehow interested in G. I tried to convince William not to put so much trust in him-"
"Hey, aren't you listening to me?!" the huntsman resumed" there you go again with G. G this, G that. That doesn't matter! What matters is the well being of your daughter. Her life should be more important to you than some stupid virus. I don't care if it was your husband's life work. Were talking about the life of a little girl, your own child. But you don't seem to understand that. Do you even care for her at all?!"
The woman was in tears at the Arc's speech" you know. Lisa Trevor was Sherry's age when she got infected with the T-Virus. But it evolved and it turned her into an abomination that couldn't be killed. Yet, her mind, somehow remained human. And she wondered the grounds of the mansion in search of her parents. They were both dead of course, along with all its residents due to the T-Virus leak."
"The mansion?" asked Claire" the one where Chris and his team got caught up?"
"Yes. It was nothing but a trap set by Umbrella, they turned it into a large test field, taking advantage of the owner's close friendship with the company, George Trevor Lisa's father. Just like they used Raccoon City. As for that poor girl, no one knows what became of her. The mansion and the underground laboratory were all destroyed by the self destruct system. Most likely she never made it. The thought of seeing Sherry ending up like her, brings me so much fear. And the irony that G's origins came from from her. William had enough data on Lisa and that's when he started his research. Oh Sherry, what a failure I turned out to be…."
Claire saw the big eye of the creature has opened. It was still alive she tried to warn them, but it was too late. The G monster has grabbed Annette, squeezing her tight before throwing her to a wall. That must have hurt.
"Annette!" both ran to the woman.
"You okay?" asked Jaune.
"I got this" she loaded another round into the flare gun.
The three saw that the thing was changing again. It grew more arms, a total of four and it looked more ferocious than before. Not to mention stronger.
"I'm sorry, William…." she fired the round hitting the creature again.
"Annette" the blond took the antiviral agent from the Redfield as he went to the woman" this is your chance to undo your mistake. If you truly care for Sherry, then now's your chance to prove it. Give it to her. We'll stay and stop this thing for good."
"Right. We got this" Claire has pressed a button on a panel sounding an emergency alarm.
The middle platform started lowering as the blond and brunette jumped facing the G creature. The huntsman with his shot gun and the Redfield with her spark shot.
"You don't know what you're up against."
"Oh I know exactly what we're up against. And its going down, again" said the Arc.
"You two...Whatever you do, don't stop until it's finished."
"Trust us."
"We're planning of finishing it off for good" the blond turned to his companion as she gave a nod.
The platform reached a lower level surrounded by many equipment and tubes. Annette has already left.
*[Class A] Breach Detected. Lab quarantine until target is neutralized.*
It may be stronger now, but its weakness hasn't changed. The G creature now has more than one eye. Jaune and Claire knew they needed to aim at all of them. And destroying all of them will eventually kill this monster once and for all. They kept their distance not wanting to get caught in its attacks. The Redfield fired the spark shot while the Arc fired his shot gun at the eyes in its arms. Still keeping their distance from what was left of William they kept firing their weapons. The G monster groaned in pain as it charged with its many arms at the Arc. The blond huntsman easily avoided the attack easily. He had a new strategy signaling his female companion what he has in mind. He will attack it from the front and she will attack it from the back. Taking out the eyes on front and back. But the situation got complicated as they ran out of ammo. Claire went for cover charging the Spark Shot.
Jaune flared his aura as he used his shield to charge at the bio creature hitting it head on. It growled being sent to the ground hard. He quickly followed to reload the shot gun. The Redfield was done as the duo went with their strategy. Third form Birkin had something in mind. It walked to one of the equipment tubes in the area and was trying to break it. The team fired away knowing it was planning to throw it at them, as a weapon. Looks like everything they have read on the G-Virus was true. This thing was smart. It knew it was outnumbered and over powered in firepower, so it will try to do anything to gain the advantage in the fight. By now, the Arc has taken out all of the eyes from the front. The brunette was out of ammunition for the Spark Shot, so she changed to her grenade launcher equipping the flame rounds. Things were going good so far, as long that the thing was still focusing on him.
Until it changed opponent, turning to Claire. It glared at the brunette, it charged with its sharp claws. She released a couple of round as the G creature caught fire. Jaune glared, it's like it knew going after the Redfield was more beneficial, than going after him. He knew she can take care of herself. But if that monster hits her, she will be badly wounded. She could even die. And he had a strong feeling it wasn't going to wait for him to use the first aid spray on her. But this gave the blond an opportunity. With its back turned to him, he can focus on firing all of the eyes on its back. He yelled Claire to keep firing and take over if the creature attacks. Changing his shot gun, he used his hand gun, aiming for all of the eyes. The G bio monster was in pain trying to gain another shot at a strong attack, it went again to another tube. Not on their watch, as both fired making it drop as in a result of an explosion.
Claire started reloading with more flame rounds while the creature went for the kill. Jaune gasped as he ran, using his aura on his legs to increased his speed. Taking his shield he blocked the strong attack of the G monster. It gave the brunette the time necessary to reload and fire again. Looks like it was working, it was being weakened resuming their fire. Until it fell on its knees, the rest of the eyes were exposed. The blond fired his gun while charging and using Crocea Mors, dealing with the final blow. G Birkin's third form was downed, the creature fell to the ground looking like it was dead. Both were still holding their weapons, this thing could come back to life. Or maybe it was playing possum since it can be smart sometimes. Yet, there was no movement from the bio creature.
*Target has been neutralized. Ending quarantine.*
"I hope it's dead this time" said the Arc.
"It better stay dead" Claire gave a sigh turning to the blond" thanks, for helping me. I would have been in trouble if you hadn't protected me."
"I would never let anything happen to you. Not as along as I'm with you."
The Redfield felt embarrassed by his comment, her cheeks getting a little red. Can she talk to him now, could she tell him. They've been through enough shit together and it wasn't the right time or place. But the brunette felt like she needed to get it off her chest. Before it was too late. The bite from the zombie was still haunting her. Just how much time Jaune has left before he becomes one of the undead. She noticed the blond was staring at something. A small elevator, that will take them back up. The brunette chose to stay silent, it just wasn't the right time.
"If we're finally done here. Let's check on Sherry and see if Annette has succeeded in giving her the antiviral agent."
All she did was nod. After all, she was worried about the little girl. Remembering her condition. The other thing will have to wait. At the same time, she didn't wanted to wait. His time was running out and she might never get a chance.
"Will you really be gone, Jaune? Will you turn too?
"Claire, come on. Let's get going!"
"R-Right!" she followed him to the elevator.
To be continued
-Okay maybe its just me but filling the dispersal cartridge with the right amount it is the most annoying puzzle of the game. I've seen people rage quit over it. If it would have been me I would have rage quit too. Capcom succeeded in making an annoying puzzle to bust your head, ass and balls too.
I wanted Annete to bring Lisa Trevor due to her connection with the Gvirus and because she was a little girl. Though I don't really know if she was Sherry's age. I don't remember if it was ever mention in the first RE.
-I wasn't happy with Annette never knowing that Irons captured Sherry. Claire should have at least told her. Well, Jaune did it for her.
-How was that fight with G Birkin third form? And the worse is yet to come as we're almost near the end.

*Justarandomdude- that is true. Its a strong possibility but I won't say anything yet.
*commandosquirrel- I am 100% sure Umbrella wasn't kept in the dark by the same incident they created. I bet they must have satellites and even cameras in their bio weapons in order to see the results of their research. I'm pretty sure Mr. X had a small hidden camera somewhere in his body so they can see his every moves with the very purpose to take out any survivors. When Jaune defeated it, it must have gotten their attention. Consider their latest gift to be a weapon to test the Arc's capabilities for further research. So yeah he's on their list of interest.
*Wolfpackersson09- glad to know you're still enjoying this story. Yes I have been doing a lot of thinking and because this story has received so much positive feedback I am planning to make sequel after the events of Raccoon City. When? Don't know.
*Perseus12- let me explain it. Think of Raccoon City as a giant rat maze and Umbrella spread the T-Virus along with the G-Virus. All the test subjects are infected and they'd be keeping a close watch on the results of their mad experiments. The results will matter on the number of casualties and make sure there are no survivors. So yes of course they will be watching every single detail that is going on in the city. Bastards think they're God and can control human life to their desires.
*NecrorexSparda Juubi-no-Kishin- the T-Virus was also spread through the city's water supply as explained by Jill. True William wasn't the only one with the G-Virus but he was the only who achieved perfection. The other subjects were underdeveloped because their DNA couldn't adapt to the virus. I already said Umbrella knows everything that's happening in the city specially Jaune's involvement. Of course they will send another Mr. X to test his abilities.
*JustLuck- agreed the RE classics will always have a special place in my heart and the remakes will have another spot too. And Akuma mode lol.
*DestinyTX- thank you for liking the story and I hope you continue to like it. This has nothing to do with the live action movies but you're right. Yes Umbrella is keeping surveillance over all of Raccoon City. I doubt they will miss the chance to see all the carnage and death their virus can make. Bio weapons are the perfect human/soldier, history has to be rewritten from humans to zombies, lickers, Tyrants among others. Yeah it did bothered me they didn't added the Crimson heads from the first RE. I'm a little bump out they didn't put birds and the giant spiders.
*Zilla: that was pretty poetic. Jaune the knight of Raccoon City. It has a nice ring to it.
*The Rev- I'll see what I can do. I can still make a few arrangements.
*Batman1998- thank you for liking the story. And Jaune is in another world not time. And about him becoming a zombie, we'll see.
*Zero- I like God Eater but I don't think I have the inspiration to write a crossover.
*Ray Q Cina- the second Mr. X isn't wearing a black trench coat or hat. But I'm sure Jaune will recognize the creature.
*Guest- we might never know since I won't be focusing on Remnant.
*Jova- oh I'm sure Tyrants have their way of entering an underground lab. They can break through walls and ceilings. It will be a piece of cake.
*Valerious Lake- as I said Umbrella is keeping a close eye on Raccoon City so it should be obvious they will know about Jaune.
*Edrap- don't worry I'm happy to give a shout out to you and your story. And as I said take your time I can wait.
*TheEmeraldMage- thank you always appreciate your support.
*warrior of six blades- happy to know someone mentioned the flashlight dying. I'm guessing the batteries of the game must be energizer they keep going and going and going. Lol at the Nora joke. And I did it on purpose Claire guessing the first code. Thank you for your continuous support.
*MidKnightMoonglow99- obviously Umbrella has their sights on him.
*Justaquestion12- you got that right Umbrella wants to see more of what Jaune is capable off.
*Spartan Warlord- thank you for the review and liking the story.
*C rex- Jaune is obviously the real prey.
*CT7567Rules- I feel like the gator isn't right to put in the story. Especially when its so easy to kill. Jaune could have sliced it with Crocea Mors and his pumped aura.
*supboyyyyy93- Jaune is Umbrella's main target now. And yes I am thinking of continuing this story. So far I will be following the events of Code Veronica X and the Degenaration movie.
*X3runner- I understand your point but I don't think the game is following that logic. That's why I decided to change that. I already have plans for Sherry.
*Greer123- thank you I do feel sorry for all of the workers at NEST. I don't think they were all evil and manipulative like Cartwright and Birkin. For example Dr. Li and Mendoza, they sounded like they were close friends that go way back to high school. Even if the game didn't show any of them asides William and Annette.
*Jack Lycan- Jaune is already super human without the T-Virus.
*Storm Marine- yep Umbrella is interested in Jaune. They want to see more of his abilities before wanting to capture him and study him.
*Super heavy weapons guy- I have said it before. I think there are two Mr. X's in the game. One is the one Birkin kills and the other must be the one that Leon fights without the trench coat and hat.
-As always thank you very much for the favs, follows and reviews I really appreciate it.
