Chapter Four

Chris fell back instantly hoping these scared guards wouldn't open fire on them. He aimed his M4 up and pointed it at them. "Don't MOVE!!" he screamed.

They didn't seem to listen to him the just ran in fear to the nearest doors searching for an unlocked one. "I said don't move!" "Screw you man! You don't know what is behind us." One shouted back.

Leon looked down the hall and saw the massive creature take the corner. It was a large grey creature that was at least ten feet tall. Its right arm was a massive claw. The head was deformed and one of the scariest things Leon had ever seen. He raised his shotgun and fired once. It didn't slow it down at all. Leon seemed frozen in place as he continued to fire.

"Leon move!" Chris shouted. "He is going to crush you!"

He began to sprint toward Leon hoping to save him. He wasn't sure he was going to make it. The beast was almost on him and he was still just standing there firing. Chris knew he was going too slow. He wouldn't make it.

Rebecca lunged out and knocked Leon out of the way just in time. They both slid across the tile floor and hit a pile of rubble. The beast's claw slammed where Leon was breaking the tile and rock which would have killed Leon if it wasn't for Leon.

Once Chris saw Leon was safely away he stopped and aimed his rifle and prepared to fire. He quickly lined up the sights and then he squeezed the trigger and the machinegun fire instantly started to hit the beast. The bone-chilling howl of the angry monster rang out in the room and it swiped its claw right by Chris' face almost killing him. He was si scared and he fell back onto the floor.

Then the Umbrella guards began shooting. This distracted the large monster and it turned from Chris. It growled and ran faster than anything Chris had ever seen and instantly had killed the first on with a machinegun. Then it lashed out and killed another one.

Rebecca got off Leon and looked at the monster. She felt her stomach turn as she heard the guard's dying groan. "Leon, you alright? Get up!" The hurt man slowly got up with his shotgun in hand.

"I'm fine. Thanks Rebecca." HE smiled at her with the smile that Rebecca and Claire said was to die for. She smiled back and then pulled out her Berretta.

Chris slid back across the room where Claire was. She was firing with her MP5K. "you alright?" she asked. "Fine. I hope." He turned his head and saw the beast kill the last of the guards. It had flesh and blood dripping off it's claw.

The beast looked into the air and screamed as a victory scream.

'We're screwed.' Chris thought since he knew they couldn't kill it. He started to shoot again as he got off the ground.

********************************************************************

Leon got off the floor after he reloaded his shotgun and aimed his gun. He fired two times in a row but it seemed it did no good. "What the hell are we going to do?!?" he screamed to Chris and Claire.

The monster was in between the two groups of people. Claire fired four times before Chris screamed an answer. "Run down the hall and lay down some fire for us to get over there." He said and then began shooting again.

Leon fired again as he slowly backed up down the hall. Claire ran behind him and then turned and fired again. Leon fired a three more times and then his shotgun clicked empty.

****************************************************************

Chris slammed in a fresh clip and cocked his gun. "I'll cover you. You run by the left side so the claw can't hit you and I will go by his other side and get past. Alright?" Claire nodded as she too reloaded her gun. "GO now! GO" HE screamed as he got from behind cover and fired at the monster.

Claire ran low and hurried past the monster hoping Chris had distracted it. The monster's long arm hit her hard on the back sending her sprawling on the floor. She was in so much pain she couldn't stand up. She moaned and hoped some one would save her before it killed her.

Chris saw her fall and then desperately tried to distract it. "Come on you ugly son of a bitch!" The monster turned its head slightly and charged Chris like it did when it killed the Umbrella guards. He ducked under the claw as it broke a large stone pillar in half. He rolled across the floor and grabbed Claire off the ground and held her with his left arm as he held the rifle with his right hand. He sprinted down the hall next to the entrance to where Rebecca and Leon were.

"Take her!" He shouted to Rebecca as he handed her Claire slowly. Chris then threw down his rifle and reached into his bag and pulled out a grenade. He yanked the pin out. He held it in his hand for a couple of seconds then tossed it into the main room where the monster was. The grenade exploded and debris and rubble flew out of the main room and hit Chris and knocked him over. The entrance room started to collapse on top of the monster.
