WOMAN: ...Brad....

~~The woman has her back turned to everyone else. Stephen puts the young woman down and she sits with her back against the door.

STEPHEN: Miss, are you ok?

~~The woman doesn't answer. Stephen slowly walks toward the woman.

STEPHEN: Listen, we're trying to find a way out of this city. You'd probably be safest if you come with us.

~~Stephen extends his hand to the woman's shoulder. In a split second the woman grabs and twists his arm behind his back and puts a gun to his head.

WOMAN: Who are you!?

STEPHEN: (slowly and calmly) My name is Stephen, and I'm looking for my friend...we're just trying to get out of the city.

~~The woman holds him there for a few seconds more and then releases him.

WOMAN: Sorry about that. I just don't know who I can trust anymore.

~~Stephen backed away holding his wrist in his hand.

WOMAN: Who are you people?

STEPHEN: Well, I'm Stephen.

ALICE: I'm Alice and this is...

~~Alice looks at the young woman who was leaning on the doors staring at the ground with her arms folded across her chest. She is ignoring everything that is going on around her.

STEPHEN: What's your name?

~~She doesn't even look up to acknowledge the question. Alice taps her on the shoulder.

ALICE: Hey kid, what's your name?

~~The young woman looks up at everyone else.

YOUNG WOMAN: Marie. Marie Prince. I work for the Raccoon City news. The man I was with today..

~~She pauses for a moment.

YOUNG WOMAN: ...was my partner, Larry.

WOMAN: I'm Jill.

MARIE: Jill!? As in Jill Valentine? Were you in that Spencer Mansion incident?

ALICE: Mansion incident?

~~More images of the previous day flash in her memory.

ALICE: (thinking) I don't remember seeing her there.....

STEPHEN: Yeah, I remember that. My friend Rain was involved in that, too.

MARIE: That's where all this started. I did a story on it but no paper would let me publish it and no news station would air it. It's a shame 'cuz some really gruesome things were happening there. Someone should've said something.

~~Jill looks down at the ground.

JILL: Someone should have.

~~Marie hears a deep, low growl from outside.

**...RRR...

MARIE: Did you guys hear that?

STEPHEN: Hear what?

MARIE: (whispering) SHHHH! Be quiet!

~~Everyone stops to listen.

ALICE: I don't hear anything.

MARIE: (whispering) Just be quiet! I know I heard something.

~~No one says anything.

**...AARRRS...

MARIE: Did you hear that?

STEPHEN: I heard it that time.

ALICE: Me too. What is that?

MARIE: It sounds like someone is trying to say something......it sounds like....stars.

~~Jill looks up at the door with pure fear in her eyes.

JILL: (silently) No.....

STEPHEN: Stars?

~~The sound gets louder.

**...AAARRRRS...

JILL: NO!!

ALICE: Oh my God, what is that?

JILL: This isn't happening.....I killed you.....

~~There is a loud thump on the doors. Marie slowly moves away from the entrance.

**...AAAARRRRSSSS...

JILL: Everyone to get out of here....

MARIE: Jill, what is it?

**STAAAARRRSS!!!!!!!!!!!

~~The monster busts through the door with the pole Jill stabbed it with in its hand.

JILL: NOW!!!!

~~Every door in the police station is barricaded. There is no where to run.

STEPHEN: Ummm...Jill, WHAT the FUCK is THAT!?

~~The monster heads directly for Jill.

JILL: IT'S TRYING TO KILL ME!!!!!

MARIE: What do we do!?

JILL: SHOOT THE DAMN THING!!!

~~Jill, Stephen and Alice open fire on the monster. The bullets only annoy the monster, who is constantly closing in on Jill.

STEPHEN: It's not dying!

ALICE: I'm out of ammo!

~~The monster now has Jill cornered. There is no way out for her. Feeling helpless, Marie grabs a fire extinguisher. She runs between Jill and the monster and sprays the monster in the face. The monster
isn't hurt, but Marie sprays enough to blind it for about 15 seconds. Marie runs for what used to be the front doors.

MARIE: Come on let's go!

JILL: No wait!!......... We have to go to the S.T.A.R.S. office up stairs!

MARIE: WHAT!?

JILL: JUST COME ON!!

~~They break through one the barricaded doors and make their way upstairs to the S.T.A.R.S. office. Now in the office, Jill walks over to a large vault sealed with a combination lock. She opens it and hands Alice one of her extra uniforms. Alice puts the clothes on and walks over to a large radio.

MARIE: Why'd we have to come up here!? Why didn't we just run out the front door!!?

JILL: We need ammunition you need a weapon. Ever shoot a gun?

~~Jill now has the vault open and is handing out ammunition and side pockets.

MARIE: I don't need a gun. I've practiced Tae Kwon-Do practically all my life.

~~Jill turns to Marie.

JILL: (sarcastically) Well, sweetie, If you wanna play Miss Bruce Lee and get close enough to that monster to kick it, then you go right ahead.

ALICE: Jill how do you work this thing?

JILL: That thing hasn't worked in months.

ALICE: Well why is this green light flashing?

JILL: What!?

~~Jill runs to the radio and starts pressing buttons and turning dials. Static comes from the radio system. Stephen walks over to the locker and hands Marie a gun and a side pocket.

JILL: This is Jill Valentine. Is anyone there?

**(from the radio) Hey is any ... there...

JILL: This is Jill Valentine. I am in the Police Station with three civilians and we are in extreme danger. Pleas send help.

**I.....can.. no...understan.....I....Um..rlla....

~~The radio goes dead.

JILL: Hello? HELLO!? SHIT!!!

~~Jill punches the radio.

JILL: Alright everyone. We're not getting any outside help so we're going to have to find a way out of the city ourselves. We need to make it to the subway on the other side of town. That'll take us straight out of town.

STEPHEN: What are we going to do about that thing out there? We obviously can't kill it.

ALICE: We'll just have to run...fast.

JILL: Is everyone's gun loaded?

**...RRR....

~~The growl is coming from outside down the hall.

MARIE: We should leave now.....

~~They can hear the monster getting closer and closer to the door. When it reaches the door it stops. Not making a single sound.

MARIE: (whispering) If we just be quiet he might leave...

JILL: He doesn't need to hear us.....it can sense where I am.

~~No one moves for about two minutes. Everyone is quiet.

STEPHEN: I think he's gone.

**SSTAARRRSS!!!!!!

~~The monster busts through the door and looks around at everyone. They all draw their weapons. The monster begins to walk towards Jill. Jill begins to slowly back away.

**SSTAARRRSS......

ALICE: JILL RUN!!

~~At the sound of Alice's voice, the monster stops in it's tracks. It turns and faces Alice, who is at the opposite side of the room.

**(grunts).....AALICCE.......

~~The monster stares at Alice for a while and runs out of the room.

**NOOOO....NOOOOOO

~~Everyone looks at Alice.

STEPHEN: What was that all about?

ALICE: I don't know. Why... how did it know my name...?

MARIE: Well, It's gone now so let's go!


~~Everyone exits through the hole the monster made in the wall. Now fully equipped with weapons and ammunition, they are ready to take on the streets of Raccoon City.
