Resident Evil
Tyrants don't cry
Chapter 2
By: Ninjalinda
Rebecca didn't move a finger. Maybe it wasn't able to see her if she didn't move.
But she was wrong... the Tyrant did see her!
It growled as if it tried to make her run. It probably liked chasing its prey. Rebecca didn't fall for that trick and was standing right where she was. She moved her hand to her gun slowly.
-So you want to kill me, huh? We'll see about that!
The Tyrant tilted its head to the side by the sound of her voice, like it paid attention. The yellow eyes looked deep into her mind. It growled again.
Rebecca aimed for its heart.
BLAM!
The Tyrant roared in pain and waved his arm in an attempt to hit her with the sharp claws. It was only ten centimetres away from hitting Rebecca's head.
-You want some more?
BLAM!
The Tyrant had got enough and moved away from the girl with the gun. It halted on its left foot. Rebecca tried to see what made it do that, but couldn't see anything.
Instead she fired one more shot at its head. Lucky for the Tyrant, she missed. It turned its head and looked at her one more time before it burst through the door and disappeared.
The Tyrant wasn't able to speak, but there was no need for words. "You'll pay for this!" it said without speaking a single word.
Rebecca didn't move her eyes from the hole after the door when she continued down the hallway. What if it came back? It would probably be pissed off...
She moved a little faster. She entered a new door.
A sound!
Piano?
She walked after the sound and soon she could see someone standing in front of a large piano trying to play. The person looked up. Chris!
-Oh. Hi Rebecca. I just wanted to practise a little you know...
-Well. Lets get going. There is nothing more here and we have to find the others. Rebecca walked back to the door.
-I'll go this way. she said and left Chris alone in the hallway.
-Well... I'll go this way then... he mumbeled.
Chris studied the wall. There was only one crest missing now. The one he had got after encountering the huge snake. He put it into the hole. A clicking sound came from the door. He entered and took a quick overlook. He grabbed a crank and a small key.
It might be useful...
And then he went out in the garden.
The cold wind cooled down his face. The howling of a animal could be heard in distance. The moon lit up the backyard with a pale, yellow light. Chris stood there for a sec, enjoying the moment.
-Grrrrr....
Chris looked around nervously. Something in the bushes?
He took a step backward and was standing with his back against the wall, keeping a close eye on the bushes.
Suddenly the silence of the night exploded into growling, howling and barking, as a pack of dogs leaped at him.
The first one attacked and nearly succeded in biting Chris hand off.
Chris pulled out the shotgun and fired it into the dog's head. It ran of whimpering.
Another dog attacked but was shot down. The last dog ran after the wounded one.
Chris ran for the gate and closed it carefully.
A waterpassage. A square hole was on a panel.
I knew that crank would become handy.
On the other side, he walked towards an elevator. Small snakes fell from the trees and tried to bite him. They were easy to avoid and soon he was in the elevator on the way down.
He noticed that the other elevator's battery was missing, but didn't think deeper around it as he went for the next gate.
Something was lying right inside the gate. He looked closer at it.
It was the dog he had shot. It was dying. It was just barely breathing. He looked up and right into a nearly human face.
The creature's yellow eyes were almost glowing in the dark. It stared at Chris with hate. It's long claws caught Chris eyes. One wrong movement and he would be sliced into pieces in no time...
Chris gasped. The creature must have smelled the blood of the dog and... He had gotten between it and its prey!
He ran for the door at the end of the passage. He took a look over his shoulder before entering. The creature didn't follow him. It was just standing there looking at him.
Maybe it's wounded...
Chris closed and locked the door after him. He turned around. He was inside the guardhouse.
Rebecca stared in horror on what Chris was about to run into. She screamed out to warn him, but she was to far away and inside the house. She saw the Tyrant turn around and look at Chris.
He is dead! He is dead! It will kill him!
But to her surprise, it didn't. She saw Chris run past it and towards the guardhouse. The Tyrant didn't do anything. It just stared after him for a minute and then turned it's attention to a dog lying on the ground. It started to rip the dog apart with its claws.
Rebecca turned away from the window. It was to discusting.
She sat down on a chair. She had to rest a little before going after Chris.
How did she get into this nightmare? And would she ever get out of it?
She studied her nails. One of them was broken.
She thought back to the moment when the helicopter was forced to land in this forest. Nobody thought this would happen. All her teammates were gone now. Richard, Enrico, Forest, Kenneth...
She had found Richard lying on the floor in a hallway near to where she found Chris. He was killed by the poison of the snake.
Forest... a picture of him being picked to death by those crows came up for her inner eye. She swallowed. It was the most horrible thing she had ever seen.
And Kenneth. She came over him when she was searching for searching for a place to hide. He was lying in a pool of his own blood. His head was removed from his neck and lied next to him.
Enrico... He was still missing.
Where are you, Enrico? Are you still alive?
Rebecca leant herself against the wall.
Will I ever get out of this hellhole alive?
She opened the window a little to get some fresh air.
The Tyrant's roar could be heard in distance, and she knew that she sooner or later would have to encounter it.
To be continued....
Yes yes... I knew that the storyline isn't straight this way... But if I wrote it correctly, it would be boring, right? This is what could have happened instead...
You have anything you want to happen in the next chapter? Just mail me...
