INT. LIVING ROOM

The CAMERA slowly zooms in on Leon, sleeping peacefully, contently, although drooling just a teeny bit.

FADE TO

INT. LEON'S BEDROOM - DAY

Large and decorated with dreamy red candles. In the center of the room is a chaise longue, with Ada clad in a sexy red dress reclining in it.

ADA
Are you ever gonna come out
and play?

LEON (O.S.)
Not yet.

Leon comes into frame, wearing his baseball-cap-n-tanktop hidden outfit from Resident Evil 2. He sits next to Ada and smiles at her.

ADA
I think you're really interesting.

LEON
Lots of people do.

ADA
Does *he*?

Leon shakes his head sadly.

ADA
Didn't think so.

Ada reclines on the longue, staring at Leon with a sexually charged grin.

ADA
You should get going. They
have to find out soon.

LEON
I don't want to leave here.

ADA
You'll have to.

LEON
No. It's too dangerous for
people like me... I'm not
an adventurer.

ADA
You're a soldier. You have
to fight.

FLASH CUT: A large, menacing presence standing in the shadows. This cut is very quick, we don't see much of it or any detail.

LEON
It's too powerful.

Ada leans in very close to Leon, dripping with sex.

ADA
(whispering)
It'll rip out your heart before
you have a chance to blink.

ON LEON - his eyes widen slightly.

ADA suddenly arches her back, screaming with ANGER. Leon backs away, terrified.

LEON
Ada?

She falls off the longue, writhing around, her skin turning a gross scaly green...

LEON
I don't have any weapons.
I don't have any weapons!

ADA rises into the air, only it's not her, it's this scary-ass SNAKE WOMAN THING, wearing Ada's dress, speaking like a demon scorned.

ADA
(in Chris' voice)
GIVE ADA A KISS!

OFF LEON

as he screams out in terror.

SMASH CUT

INT. RACCOON POLICE DEPARTMENT - HALLWAY - NIGHT

LEON is now running through the dark, empty, creeky, bloody halls of the RPD. There's nothing chasing him, he's just RUNNING, and with a purpose.

VOICE
(robotic and stiff)
Five. Minutes. Until detonation.

LEON
(fiercly)
No...

He RUNS and RUNS and RUNS.

INT. ANOTHER HALLWAY - CONTD

Leon stops dead in his tracks when he sees this corridor is CONGESTED with zombies. They all turn and look at him, groaning and moaning and making zombie-ish sounds.

LEON
Sorry. Didn't mean to intrude.

They slowly lurch toward his presence. Leon looks around, grabs the nearest door and THROWS himself inside.

INT. DARK ROOM - NIGHT

Dimly lit. As soon as Leon enters, CLAIRE grabs him and they crouch down low.

LEON
Claire!

CLAIRE
Shhh. It's after you.

LEON
(worried)
What? What is? Is it a zombie?

CLAIRE
No. Much bigger.

LEON
What room are we in?

CLAIRE
I think you already know.

They begin crawling towards something.

LEON
Shouldn't we be running?

CLAIRE
Oh, it's not after me yet.
*You* should be running.

Leon looks a little bothered by this.

LEON
Is it the Tyrant?

CLAIRE
You wish.

THE LIGHTS COME ON

illuminating the entire room there in. It's actually sectioned off into two seperate rooms, with Claire and Leon in the center. They stand up.

LEON
What is this.

CLAIRE
The gateway.

ON THE LEFT SECTION of the room is ADA, looking very "I just posed for Playboy and Penthouse" in an extremely revealing hot pink bikini.

ON THE RIGHT SECTION of the room is CHRIS, looking very "I just starred in The Hunks of Raccoon, Vol 2" in a pair of blue swim trunks.

Claire turns to Leon, who looks a little dumbfounded.

CLAIRE
Your choice.

LEON
You can't possibly force me
to choose. That isn't polite.

CLAIRE
You're not following the
logic. It's either snake-woman
or straight-guy.

ADA winks at Leon seductively (she isn't in snake form) and Chris gives a little yawn.

LEON
I don't have time to think about
this.

INT. UMBRELLA LAB - NIGHT

Leon's been "magically" transported here, a barren, empty lab with many experiments-gone-wrong trapped in watery tube things. No body there but Leon.

LEON
Hello?

His voice echoes.

ADA (O.S.)
I'm here.

Leon spins around to see Ada approaching him, wearing very cave-woman esque clothing.

LEON
Why are you following me?

ADA
I'm not. But he is.

FLASHCUT: The shadowy menacing presence again.

LEON
'He'? It has a sex?

ADA
Unlike some people.

LEON
That isn't nice.

ADA
Isn't it?

She produces a deck of rune cards. Ada randomly picks one, hands it to Leon.

LEON
What is this?

CLOSE ON - Leon's hand. In it he holds the rune "Thurisaz", which is a short vertical line with a triangle protruding out of it's right side.

ADA
The Gateway. Giants, demons,
The God Thor.

LEON squints at it.

ADA
Be a lover of gateways.
Approach them softly. For once
you pass through, there will
be changes. And much that you
will gladly lay inside.

LEON
(understanding now)
The frontier between Heaven
and the mundane.

ADA
Precisely. Remember that when
it's mutilating you.

The CAMERA positions itself in front of Leon. We see, over his shoulder, a FIGURE COVERED IN A SHEET sits up on a metal table like a horrifying frankenstein-creature.

ADA
I can't protect you. Not any
more.

Ada's gone. A shadow falls over Leon, as he stiffens up his back, tensing as he senses the hideous creature behind him.

LEON
I'm not scared.

The shadow grows larger...

LEON
I will step through the
gateway.

...and larger...

LEON
(terrified)
You don't know what it's
like.

This MONSTER (who we'll call "The Being", a large Umbrella bioweapon who we don't see much of) GRABS Leon by the head and the hip and savagely RIPS HIM APART.

SMASH TO

INT. JILL'S LIVING ROOM - THE REAL WORLD

CLOSE UP - Leon's closed eyes. A spray of blood hits them. He doesn't react.
