Well, I never...
With all The commotion Jill turns around.
JILL
Barry! What The hell are You doing?!
Barry helps The woman up and runs up to Jill.
BARRY
(breathless)
Jill... Arklay... Anoher murder...!!
JILL
Barry, breath, Then tell me. AnoTher murder?
BARRY
Listen. There has been anoTher murder in The Arklay Moountains! And get this. We have a witness!!
JILL
A witness? AnoTher murder? You have got to be kidding.
BARRY
No. This man... John Cleaver, 36. His liver, spleen, and heart were devoured and his left leg was cleanly bitten off.
JILL
And what about The witness?
BARRY
It's his wife. She claimed that some kind of a wolf attacked him. And get this. According to her, The dog had no skin and it smelled like a decomposing pile of flesh.
JILL
But this totally throws us of our Theory. And that smell she's talking about... I just don't get it! And how did she managed to survive?
BARRY
Just lucky I guess. She managed to get into Their... Er... Her car and drive out of There. Also, according to The muder site, that killing wave is spreading. But for now, The important thing for us is to question The witness. Redfield and Wesker are already There.
JILL
Well... Let's go!
Jill drops her coffee cup in The nearest garbage can and runs down The hall, Barry following her.

INT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-MORGUE.
A fat MAN, The CORONER, is sitting behind a small desk, eating donuts. The room behind him is filled with embalming tools, tables filled with corpses, covered by white sheets, and a set of special refrigerators for copses in The back wall.
The door opens and Jill enters, holding The folder that Chris gave her. The coroner stands up.
JILL
Hello, I am Special Tactics And Rescue Service agent Jill Valentine. I am here to inspect The latest victim of Arklay Murders.
CORONER
Yeah, yeah, what's The number?
JILL
Excuse me?
CORONER
You know, The toe tag number.
JILL
Oh!
Jill shuffles a few pages in The folder.
JILL
Twenty-seven.
CORONER
Oh, that one. Still fresh. Oh! Where are my manners. Would You like some Donuts? I just got Them fresh for "Al's Bakery."
The Coroners jams a huge donuts in his mouth and swallows it, hardly even chewing it. Jill looks at him in total disgust.
JILL
(in disgust)
No, but thank You. Now, can I see The body?
CORONER
Yeah, sure. Follow me.
The coroner leads Jill to a table with a corpse covered by one of The white sheets and gently lifts a corner, revealing The body to Jill and him, but not to us.
JILL
(turning away in disgust.)
Oh, Sweet.... What The...
CORONER
Oh, pardon me. This one's not Yours.
JILL
Well, thank god for that!
The coroner lifts The cover form The body lying next to it, just like The last one so we can't see it. Jill screams.
JILL
What The hell?! He looks like he has been totaly eaten away! Arte You sure this one is mine?
CORONER
Well, he is twenty-seven. He aint pretty to look at, huh?
JILL
Actually, he looks more a like a she, in this state.
CORONER
Yep. Almost everything below The abdomen has been devoured. As You can see, he is also missing his heart, spleen, and half of his liver.
JILL
Can we start The autopsy now?
CORONER
Sure. It's not like There is left in him to open up.
The coroner picks up a small tape recorder, lying on a small table next to him and Jill.
CORONER
(speaking into The tape recorder)
This is Bejamin Harris with Special Tactics And Rescue Service agent Jill Valentine, inspecting John Cleaver, male, 36, latest victim of The Arklay Mountains' murders. Cause of death: devouring of vital organs. Now as we inspect his...
A low moan interupts The coroner in mid-sentence. The hand of The body, pale with died up blood stains, rises from The table and grabs The coroner by The throat. He gasps in horror, and drops The tape recorder. Jill gasps.
The body rises, until it sits, on The table. The white sheet drops from its body and reveals John, naked, skin on his chest and The heart missing. His face is a death mask. Parts of The skull and The brain visible, The left eye ripped out of his socket, The lips blue and shriveled.
Drooling, like a hungry animal, he slowly moves toward The coroner's throat.
CORONER
(strugling)
No! No! Help! Don't let it...
As John's drooling, mutilated, face comes closer and closer to The terrified coroner's throat, Jill screams in terror. She searches her pockets. finally, she takes out a gun, and shoots The zombie in The head, but The zombie is oblivious to this. Jill shoots three more times, and The zombie, with a soft groan, liesa back on The table. The coroner, gasping for breath, slides onto The floor, grasping his throat. Jill kneels over to him.
JILL
Are You okay?
CORONER
I am fine. What The hell was that?
JILL
I don't know... It... It was some kind of a zombie...
CORONER
A zombie? You have got to be kidding. It's impossible!
JILL
I know, but still... It's like something out of George Romero movie. Anyway, will You be okay in here?
CORONER
Yes, why?
JILL
I have to go to my teammates. They won't believe this!
Jill runs out The door.
INT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-HALLWAY.
Two police-men are walking down a semi-dark hallway, when The morgue door swing open, and Jill runs out. The two police-men are stunned.
JILL
Hey! The two of You, get into The morgue, don't ask any questions, just get in There!
Jill runs down The hall, as The two men give each oTher confused glances and enter The morgue.
INT. S.T.A.R.S. OFFICE.
A very boring calmness surrounds The room. Barry is sitting at his desk, making a colt-python model, Chris is eating a hamburger and fries, while Wesker, sits at his desk and throws lumps of paper into a trash can, while Joseph is playing around with his tape dispenser.
Wesker
(throwing a paper lump into The trash can)
Yes! A perfect score! Meet The master, Albert Wesker.
CHRIS
You wish, You haven't beaten my record yet! A perfect ten.
The door swings open, and Jill storms in, out of breath. SHe sits down at her desk.
WESKER
Jill? What happened? You were suppose to be at The autopsy.
JILL
I was, but corpse... Well, he got a bit too lively to handle.
BARRY
Huh?
JILL
The corpse, it... It came alive! It was just like that "Plan Nine From Living Dead" movie.
JOSEPH
I think You mean "Plan Nine From Outer Space" and "Night of The Living Dead."
JILL
Shut up, Joseph! I'm telling You, it came alive!
JOSEPH
Jill, are You on crack?
CHRIS
I think You are on to something, Joseph.
JILL
Shut up! Both of You! The body came alive! And The most weird thing is, everything was missing! The heart, half of The liver, The spleen. Everything!
WESKER
Now You are sounding just like that Cleaver woman we questioned.
JILL
You don't understand, maybe There is more of those things, maybe...
Suddenly, The old radio reciever comes to life. The sound is mostly static.
ENRICO
(on The radio reciever, between static)
This is S.T.A.R.S. Bra... Chopper going... Not much time... Send Help... This is S.T.A...

Jill gives Barry The bag with ammunition and They hurry out The door.
EXT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-HELIPAD-LATE AFTERNOON.
A big helicopter with "SPECIAL TACTICS AND RESCUE SERVICE (S.T.A.R.S.) ALPHA UNIT" is resting on The landing spot. A small commotion is going on around it.

WESKER
He was, but he went to talk with Jill about The... Well, finally!
Jill and Barry, holding The bags with med packs and ammunition, come running out.
JILL
Sorry it took us so long. The elevator broke and we had to take The back stairs.
CHRIS
(whispering in Jill's ear)
You might have some consideration for me. Wesker was riding me for half anhour with his lectures.
Joseph jumps out of The helicopter.
JOSEPH
Hello! People! We have a job to do. Let's hurry up.

We focus on Chris and Jill
CHRIS
(looking outside The window)
Anything?

Chris leans over to Jill's side of The window.
CHRIS
Oh, sweet Jesus.
We see a black cloud of smoke, coming up from above The giant pine trees.

Something's wrong here. It looks like The engine has been sabotaged.
WESKER
What?
BARRY
(o.s.)
Hey, You guys! Check this out!
Chris, Jill, Joseph, Wesker, and Brad walk over to The helicopter's hatch, all twisted, and hanging off one hinge, and find Barry in The cabin, pointing at three duffel bags.
JOSEPH
But this means...
CHRIS
They left in a hurry.
WESKER
But what could make Them flee without taking any weapons?
BARRY
(getting out of The helicopter)
I don't know. In any case, we better start looking for any clues.
We hear a low howl of a wolf in The distance.
JILL
What was that?
JOSEPH
Beats me... It sounded like a...
BRAD
Joseph, listen to me I am getting very uncomfortabel with These old-wives tales. Do You mind if I wait in The helicopter.
WESKER
Sure thing, "Chicken-heart."
BRAD

EXT. ARKLAY-MOUNTAINS-FOREST-FIELD-ANOTheR END-EVENING.
Joseph kneels down to pick up The gun. As he picks it up, we see a severed hand, grasping The weapon. Joseph screams in disgust and drops The weapon.
We see a a mouth of a German Shepherd, with The skin around its mouth missing, drooling and growling. Joseph turns around, aiming his gun.
With a howl, The giant, almost skinless dog, jumps at Joseph. He screams and fires. The beast yelps as a bullet takes out its eye. In a second it recovers and jumps on Joseph and tears off his arm, in a shower of blood, as Jill makes her way to The scene.
JILL
Joseph!
The beast turns away from Joseph. We see Joseph's half eaten body. The Nose is bitten off, as well as The arm, a lot of oTher bites can be seen.
The beast starts making its way toward Jill, as she screams, she starts to fire, and runs toward The oTher S.T.A.R.S. members. We see anoTher two skinless beasts, joining Their wounded comrade.

(Yelling at The helicopter)
Wait! Brad, don't!!
EXT. ARKLAY MOUNTAINS-FOREST-EVENING.

JILL
(on The run, with Chris, Barry, and Wesker)
We won't make it! There might be more of those things!
Chris spots a giant mansion, half of its lights ablaze, on a hill.
CHRIS
(pointing at The mansion with his gun)
Jill! Run for that house!
Jill, as well as Barry and Wesker, spot The amnsion and run towards it, with Chris close behind. Suddenly, There is a gunshot. With a muffled cry someone falls on The grass.
Jill runs to The mansion's door, twists The door knob, and The door opens easily. She runs into The mansion, two more S.T.A.R.S. members following her. After They enter, The door slams shut.
Jill, holding a "Starbucks" paper cup of coffee, is hurrying down The hall.

The door opens and Jill enters, holding The folder that Chris gave her. The coroner stands up.
JILL
Hello, I am Special Tactics And Rescue Service agent Jill Valentine. I am here to inspect The latest victim of Arklay Murders.
CORONER
Yeah, yeah, what's The number?
JILL
Excuse me?
CORONER
You know, The toe tag number.
JILL
Oh!
Jill shuffles a few pages in The folder.
JILL
Twenty-seven.
CORONER
Oh, that one. Still fresh. Oh! Where are my manners. Would You like some Donuts? I just got Them fresh for "Al's Bakery."
The Coroners jams a huge donuts in his mouth and swallows it, hardly even chewing it. Jill looks at him in total disgust.
JILL
(in disgust)
No, but thank You. Now, can I see The body?
CORONER
Yeah, sure. Follow me.
The coroner leads Jill to a table with a corpse covered by one of The white sheets and gently lifts a corner, revealing The body to Jill and him, but not to us.
JILL
(turning away in disgust.)
Oh, Sweet.... What The...
CORONER
Oh, pardon me. This one's not Yours.
JILL
Well, thank god for that!
The coroner lifts The cover form The body lying next to it, just like The last one so we can't see it. Jill screams.
JILL
What The hell?! He looks like he has been totaly eaten away! Arte You sure this one is mine?
CORONER
Well, he is twenty-seven. He aint pretty to look at, huh?
JILL
Actually, he looks more a like a she, in this state.
CORONER
Yep. Almost everything below The abdomen has been devoured. As You can see, he is also missing his heart, spleen, and half of his liver.
JILL
Can we start The autopsy now?
CORONER
Sure. It's not like There is left in him to open up.
The coroner picks up a small tape recorder, lying on a small table next to him and Jill.
CORONER
(speaking into The tape recorder)
This is Bejamin Harris with Special Tactics And Rescue Service agent Jill Valentine, inspecting John Cleaver, male, 36, latest victim of The Arklay Mountains' murders. Cause of death: devouring of vital organs. Now as we inspect his...
A low moan interupts The coroner in mid-sentence. The hand of The body, pale with died up blood stains, rises from The table and grabs The coroner by The throat. He gasps in horror, and drops The tape recorder. Jill gasps.
The body rises, until it sits, on The table. The white sheet drops from its body and reveals John, naked, skin on his chest and The heart missing. His face is a death mask. Parts of The skull and The brain visible, The left eye ripped out of his socket, The lips blue and shriveled.
Drooling, like a hungry animal, he slowly moves toward The coroner's throat.
CORONER
(strugling)
No! No! Help! Don't let it...
As John's drooling, mutilated, face comes closer and closer to The terrified coroner's throat, Jill screams in terror. She searches her pockets. finally, she takes out a gun, and shoots The zombie in The head, but The zombie is oblivious to this. Jill shoots three more times, and The zombie, with a soft groan, liesa back on The table. The coroner, gasping for breath, slides onto The floor, grasping his throat. Jill kneels over to him.
JILL
Are You okay?
CORONER
I am fine. What The hell was that?
JILL
I don't know... It... It was some kind of a zombie...
CORONER
A zombie? You have got to be kidding. It's impossible!
JILL
I know, but still... It's like something out of George Romero movie. Anyway, will You be okay in here?
CORONER
Yes, why?
JILL
I have to go to my teammates. They won't believe this!
Jill runs out The door.
INT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-HALLWAY.
Two police-men are walking down a semi-dark hallway, when The morgue door swing open, and Jill runs out. The two police-men are stunned.
JILL
Hey! The two of You, get into The morgue, don't ask any questions, just get in There!
Jill runs down The hall, as The two men give each oTher confused glances and enter The morgue.
INT. S.T.A.R.S. OFFICE.
A very boring calmness surrounds The room. Barry is sitting at his desk, making a colt-python model, Chris is eating a hamburger and fries, while Wesker, sits at his desk and throws lumps of paper into a trash can, while Joseph is playing around with his tape dispenser.
Wesker
(throwing a paper lump into The trash can)
Yes! A perfect score! Meet The master, Albert Wesker.
CHRIS
You wish, You haven't beaten my record yet! A perfect ten.
The door swings open, and Jill storms in, out of breath. SHe sits down at her desk.
WESKER
Jill? What happened? You were suppose to be at The autopsy.
JILL
I was, but corpse... Well, he got a bit too lively to handle.
BARRY
Huh?
JILL
The corpse, it... It came alive! It was just like that "Plan Nine From Living Dead" movie.
JOSEPH
I think You mean "Plan Nine From Outer Space" and "Night of The Living Dead."
JILL
Shut up, Joseph! I'm telling You, it came alive!
JOSEPH
Jill, are You on crack?
CHRIS
I think You are on to something, Joseph.
JILL
Shut up! Both of You! The body came alive! And The most weird thing is, everything was missing! The heart, half of The liver, The spleen. Everything!
WESKER
Now You are sounding just like that Cleaver woman we questioned.
JILL
You don't understand, maybe There is more of those things, maybe...
Suddenly, The old radio reciever comes to life. The sound is mostly static.
ENRICO
(on The radio reciever, between static)
This is S.T.A.R.S. Bra... Chopper going... Not much time... Send Help... This is S.T.A...
JILL
Oh, shit! Can't this day get any worse?!
WESKER
Chris, Joseph! Quickly go down to The lounge and fetch Brad! Tell him to warm up The chopper. We are going to look at The area Bravos were supposed to inspect first. Barry, follow me. Jill, fetch some ammuntion and medical supplies. Now let's hurry and put this show on The road!
Chris, Jill, Barry, Joseph, and Wesker look at each oTher, Their glances full of concern.
INT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-BREAK ROOM.
A few men and women in police uniforms are having lunch or watching a small television set.
In The croner is Brad, readin a book. On The cover is "You Can Conquer Your Fears. By Doctor Anthony Mlodik."
The door flies open and Chris and Joseph run towards Brad.
JOSEPH
Brad! Warm up The helicopter! The Bravos... Something happened to Them.
BRAD

JOSEPH
Not enough time explain. Just get Your ass to The chopper.
CHRIS
Yeah, hurry!
Chris, Joseph, and Brad run out of The break room.

JILL
Barry!
JILL
Jill, is it true what You said? About that... Zombie?
JILL
Yes, but now is not The time to talk about it. I'm sure Chief Irons will polish this and present it as nothing to Mayor Warren and The rest of The city. Well, enough smart talk, let's get moving. Here, help me with this.
Jill gives Barry The bag with ammunition and They hurry out The door.
EXT. RACCOON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT-HELIPAD-LATE AFTERNOON.
A big helicopter with "SPECIAL TACTICS AND RESCUE SERVICE (S.T.A.R.S.) ALPHA UNIT" is resting on The landing spot. A small commotion is going on around it. We see Brad in The helicopters window, wearing a pilot's helmet and his S.T.A.R.S. uniform. He is checking out all of The helicopter's gadgets. We can see Joseph is inside The helicopter's open hatch, checking out The cockpit. Chris, wearing a green S.T.A.R.S. vest over his white t-shirt and jeans, with something that look like big roller blade knee pads. and Wesker, wearing his dark suglasses, even though The is setting, and The S.T.A.R.S. leader's black uniform, are standing nearby.
WESKER
Where are They? We are in a hurry here!
CHRIS
Wasn't Barry with You?
WESKER
He was, but he went to talk with Jill about The... Well, finally!
Jill and Barry, holding The bags with med packs and ammunition, come running out.
JILL
Sorry it took us so long. The elevator broke and we had to take The back stairs.
CHRIS
(whispering in Jill's ear)
You might have some consideration for me. Wesker was riding me for half anhour with his lectures.
Joseph jumps out of The helicopter.
JOSEPH
Hello! People! We have a job to do. Let's hurry up.
WESKER
(under his breath)
We're coming. we're coming, You obnoxious bastard.
JOSEPH
What was that?

Jill and Barry throw The bags in The chopper, Then Chris, Joseph, Wesker jump inside. Jill and Barry are soon to follow.

The helicopter is flying around The forest. We can see trees and hills below it. The Arklay Mountains are very close by. The sun is very low. It is getting darker and darker.
INT. S.T.A.R.S. HELICOPTER-COCKPIT.
Brad is at The pilot's seat, wearing his helmit. Chris, Jill, Barry, and Joseph sit on long benches in The back of The cockpit, looking outside small windows. Wesker is nervously pacing back in and forth around The small cabin.
WESKER
Did You find anything?
JOSEPH
(turning away from The window)
If You stop asking us every second, we might pay more attention to The area!
WESKER
Listen, I've just had enough shit from You, You little...
BARRY
Just shut up, both of You.
We focus on Chris and Jill
CHRIS
(looking outside The window)
Anything?
JILL
No. It seems that... Look, Chris!
Chris leans over to Jill's side of The window.
CHRIS
Oh, sweet Jesus.
We see a black cloud of smoke, coming up from above The giant pine trees.
EXT. S.T.A.R.S. ALPHA TEAM HELICOPTER-EARLY EVENING.
With The sun almost set, The helicopter slowly starts to descend to The area where The black smoke is coming from.
EXT. ARKLAY MOUNTAINS-FOREST-EARLY EVENING.
The sky is almost dark.
The S.T.A.R.S. team Bravo unit helicopter is standing still on a hill, its engine exposed, and thick black smoke coming out from it.
With a loud roar, The S.T.A.R.S. team Alpha unit helicopter lands. Even before The its blades start turning, The hatch opens, and Chris, Jill, Barry, Joseph, Wesker, and Brad jump out of The helicopter, and run, to The Bravo unit helicopter.

What's up with Their helicopter?
Chris, Jill, Barry, Joseph, Wesker, and Brad approach The helicopter. Brad starts to inspect The helicopter's engine.
BRAD
Something's wrong here. It looks like The engine has been sabotaged.
WESKER
What?
BARRY
(o.s.)
Hey, You guys! Check this out!
Chris, Jill, Joseph, Wesker, and Brad walk over to The helicopter's hatch, all twisted, and hanging off one hinge, and find Barry in The cabin, pointing at three duffel bags.
JOSEPH
But this means...
CHRIS
They left in a hurry.
WESKER
But what could make Them flee without taking any weapons?
BARRY
(getting out of The helicopter)
I don't know. In any case, we better start looking for any clues.
We hear a low howl of a wolf in The distance.
JILL
What was that?
JOSEPH
Beats me... It sounded like a...
BRAD
Joseph, listen to me I am getting very uncomfortabel with These old-wives tales. Do You mind if I wait in The helicopter.
WESKER
Sure thing, "Chicken-heart."
BRAD
Stop calling me that! I happen to be very brave! According to my self-help book...
Brad quickly walks towards The helicopter, as The rest of The S.T.A.R.S. team Alpha unit laugh.
EXT. ARKLAY MOUNTAINS-FOREST-EVENING.
The sky is absolutely dark.
All of S.T.A.R.S. team Alpha unit, except Brad, is scattered around a large field scanning The deep grass.

Chris and Jill turn around. Jill, aiming her gun, starts walking towards Joseph.
EXT. ARKLAY-MOUNTAINS-FOREST-FIELD-ANOTheR END-EVENING.
Joseph kneels down to pick up The gun. As he picks it up, we see a severed hand, grasping The weapon. Joseph screams in disgust and drops The weapon.
We see a a mouth of a German Shepherd, with The skin around its mouth missing, drooling and growling. Joseph turns around, aiming his gun.
With a howl, The giant, almost skinless dog, jumps at Joseph. He screams and fires. The beast yelps as a bullet takes out its eye. In a second it recovers and jumps on Joseph and tears off his arm, in a shower of blood, as Jill makes her way to The scene.
JILL
Joseph!
The beast turns away from Joseph. We see Joseph's half eaten body. The Nose is bitten off, as well as The arm, a lot of oTher bites can be seen.
The beast starts making its way toward Jill, as she screams, she starts to fire, and runs toward The oTher S.T.A.R.S. members. We see anoTher two skinless beasts, joining Their wounded comrade.
EXT. ARKLAY-MOUNTAINS-FOREST-FIELD-ANOTheR END-EVENING.

As Jill gains her partners, They start to make Their way towards The helicopter.
EXT. ARKLAY MOUNTAINS-FOREST-EVENING.
Chris, Jill, Barry, and Wesker run for The helicopter, occasionally, firing at The three beasts.
The helicopter's blades start to turn, and The helicopter starts to rise into The sky. Chris, Jill, Barry, and Wesker stop dead in Their tracks.
Chris
(Yelling at The helicopter)
Wait! Brad, don't!!
EXT. ARKLAY MOUNTAINS-FOREST-EVENING.
Chris, Jill, Barry, and Wesker run togeTher, being chased by The pack of The skinless beasts. Barry makes a clean shot with his magnum, completely blowing one of The beasts' head off.
JILL
(on The run, with Chris, Barry, and Wesker)
We won't make it! There might be more of those things!
Chris spots a giant mansion, half of its lights ablaze, on a hill.
CHRIS
(pointing at The mansion with his gun)
Jill! Run for that house!
Jill, as well as Barry and Wesker, spot The amnsion and run towards it, with Chris close behind. Suddenly, There is a gunshot. With a muffled cry someone falls on The grass.
Jill runs to The mansion's door, twists The door knob, and The door opens easily. She runs into The mansion, two more S.T.A.R.S. members following her. After They enter, The door slams shut.
