Resident Evil: Forever Doomed
CHAPTER NINE
Oh my God.....
Lance stood before the fallen creature. They all stared at the monster.
"Well?" Katie asked. Lance snapped out of his trance,
"Huh? Um, well what?"
"What is it?" Lance didn't answer. He just continued to stare at the creature. "Lance, you okay?" Toni asked. Lance could feel their eyes staring at him; they were staring for an answer, but most of all they were staring for comfort.
Lauren opened her mouth and yelled, "Will somebody tell me what the hell is going on here!?" Lance turned around and stared at Lauren.
"Don't you get it?" He yelled.
"It's over. If we have to deal with those things running around we're not going to make it. If there's one, there's bound to be more!!" He didn't know why he was yelling, but something inside of him just made him mad. On top of it all he was very sad, he knew that he wouldn't survive the day. Lance's mind was racing. Endless thoughts ran through his head.
Stop this, Lance, just stop it now! If you break down now you'll all die.
The thoughts mixed together in his brain, and one word seemed to pop out of the rest: Jill. Lance's expression soon changed. He peered around the corner and there she lay, Jill. She was in a pile of blood. Lance could only hope that it wasn't her blood, but the creature's.
"Jill?" he said. Her arm moved. Lance cleared his throat, "Jill?" He moved closer.
Oh God Jill, answer me please.
"Jill?" He said, sadness could clearly be heard in his voice, but he didn't care. She didn't move. He fell to his knees right beside her body and started to cry. Katie, Toni, and Lauren looked at him, and they were speechless.
"Ugh." A moan came out. Lance raised his fallen head and peered into Jill's eyes as they opened.
He watched as she opened her mouth to speak, "What," she took a breath, "happened?" A smile spread across Lance's face as he wiped the tears.
"Are you okay?" he asked. Jill as she sat up.
"I'm fine." They both stood up. Jill wiped her pants. "So, what are we all doing just standing here, we have lives to save."
"Whose?" Katie asked.
With a grim on her face Jill replied, "Our own." Lance smiled, and saw his friends do the same.

Kenneth walked up to the storage closet. "107. That's what it says on this map." He was looking over a map of the school that Mrs. Guarino had sent him marking all of the entrances. He went to open the door, and to his surprise, it was locked. "Shit." He uttered under his breath.
What the hell am I supposed to do now?
The other two basement entrances had been blocked. The one with the girl and the other one was impossible to get to. The whole entire hall was filled with zombies. Kenneth looked down and started to walk away. He walked a few steps and then something spectacular caught his eye. It was his gun.
Duh, you have a gun, just shoot the damn thing.
He turned around and--
--Bang!
The door knob blew off from the blast of his Magnum and the door swung open. Kenneth stared inside. Stairs leading down, darkness covering every inch, except for a small glow obviously coming from a light downstairs. He slowly crept up to the door. He stared into the darkness and took a deep breath, hoping it wouldn't be his last.
