Tonia slowly opened the door. Her stomach turned at the sound of ripping
flesh. Slowly she walked into the hallway. Looking around her, she noticed
all of the windows had been boarded up, and blocked off. The dead thing in
front of her had almost completely devoured the carcass it was eating.
Her shoes clicked dryly on the tiled floor, and she raised her gun again as the zombie looked up at her. It grinned in an utterly stupid way, and began to crawl towards her. Bloody flesh hung from its lips, and dripped along the floor where it crawled. Tonia backed up against the wall, and fired six rounds into the zombie's head.
The blood drained out of it, much like the first undead thing she had encountered, so she knew it was dead. She stepped carefully over it, and continued down the hall. The first set off doors she came to, the conference room, was locked. She continued on towards the doors in front of her. Quickly checking behind her, she opened them. The stairs were waiting on her left, another door that led into the filing room on her right.
The dark room was underneath the stairs. "Well, let's just see if anyone is down here." She mumbled to herself. Slowly she started for the stairs, and didn't look back behind her. Halfway up, she heard feet scraping the ground somewhere downstairs. And they sounded like they were in the filing room.
She leapt back down the stairs, landing catlike and silently on the tile, and reloaded her gun. Quickly she approached the door, and cracked it open. It slid open noiselessly, and she slipped in. She looked around quickly, but it looked like no one was in the room with here. The she heard it. Not scraping. Clicking.
She ran quickly around the main cabinets, and heard the sound again on the other side. "So, it's playing with me." she thought to her self. She cocked the nine-millimeter. Obviously, the thing heard it to, because it stopped moving. "Must be smarter than those zombie things." Tonia mumbled. Then she heard a low growl from behind her. Without thinking she rolled backwards, and saw a large dog fly over her.
It landed awkwardly on the tile floor, and slid into a steel cabinet. Tonia leveled the gun at the beast's head. It growled at her, but she quickly silenced it with several short burst from the gun. It fell to the ground, and bled out. She stared at the dog for a moment, and then approached a file cabinet that was open.
The file she was staring at was new. Carefully she opened the file up, and stared at the printout in front of her. "To whoever finds this file:" the document began. "You should get out of Raccoon city as soon as possible. Don't bother with trying to save people. By the time you read this, everyone else will probably dead. Or worse. These things. The zombies. They bite, and transmit a virus into you."
"You change into one of them within 3 hours. Don't bother trying to save anyone. If you are reading this document, leave now, and escape while you can. Before she finds you." Tonia stopped reading. There were several more pages, but she thought she heard a noise. Carefully she made sure she \was still alone, reloaded her gun, and continued to read.
