Chapter Two: Death Comes Knockin'
The sound of gunshots echoed through the air as the bullets moved toward the Twinrunner, seemingly in slow motion. Three of the seven bullets hit the Twinrunner's eyes. I finally touched down. I immediately sprang to my feet as the forest clearing shook with the violent scream of the Twinrunner.
It had begun to rain very heavily by now. It was beginning to get extremely hard to see anymore. For a moment, I had lost sight of the Twinrunner.
"Oh, shit!" I cried out.
Then it came from nowhere. A blow came swiftly through the downpour. The Twinrunner nailed me with its bladed hand as I frantically tried to reload my pistol. Fortunately, it had not swung at me full strength, as it only sliced into my arm partially. Blood was running out from the gaping wound in my right arm. The Twinrunner disappeared before I could get a shot off. Seconds later, I started to feel sluggish and tired. I was moments away from passing out. Just before I did, a mysterious figure appeared.
"Hang in there, you'll be ok, try to stay awake." The voice said.
"Who are you?" I asked sleepily.
"I'm Claire Redf..." Claire suddenly pulled two pistols from their holsters and opened fire on the Twinrunner.
"Die you son of a bitch!" she yelled as she was shooting at the monster.
The final eye was hit, the Twinrunner died, and Claire ran to my side, but she was a little too late, as I've already passed out... I awoke some time later in a dreary-looking hospital bed. Claire was by my side at the moment. She was first to speak.
"Oh, you finally awoke!" she said with delight.
"Where am I?" I inquired, drowsily.
"You're in a hospital just inside of Raccoon City." She said.
Just then, Claire's radio went off. She answered the call. It was Kevin with a message for all...
"Get out of there! An infestation has occurred. Leave immediately! All the doctors and staff are being attacked!"
To which Claire responded:
"Jeff is in no condition to be fighting zombies, Kevin!"
"I'll be fine..." I said, trying to get up out of the bed.
"Here, let me help...are you sure about this?" she asked.
"Yeah, I'm sure about it." I said, grimacing in pain as I got to my feet.
As I started towards the door, my right arm felt a little heavier than it usually does, but I said nothing about it to Claire. I reached for the doorknob and I heard what seemed like a metal-on-metal sound, to me anyways. I finally questioned the matter to her.
"What did you do to my arm?" I asked innocently.
"Well, long story... we had to amputate your arm." She said.
"So... why is my arm there and it's really heavy now?"
"Well, it's a bionic arm, completely made of metal. We then made a replicate of the skin that was on your arm originally." She said. "You did all of this in a day?" I asked, completely amazed by everything. "Well, actually, uhhmmm... more like a week, week and a half." Claire said sheepishly. "Daaammmnnn!" I exclaimed in disbelief. But I continued, "Y'all gotta stop screwing with me like this."
"It's a pretty cool thing we've got goin on with that arm." Claire said with enthusiasm.
"Besides it being metal, what good is this 'thing'?"
"Well, if you were to punch someone...well, lets just say...instant death to the target." Claire said with a devilish smile on her face.
I laughed at the thought.
"No-one's gonna screw with me now!" I exclaimed.
"Enough toying with that idea, lets get the hell out of here. We'll have to be really careful to not get caught unawares by zombies. Since we don't have any weapons besides your arm, we'll need to be..."
"Blah, blah, blah." I said, laughing my ass off.
Claire blushed at my outburst. We went out the doorway to the wide- open hallway.
"No sign of advancing enemies." I thought.
My partner and I slinked along to the next room and the next long corridor that was hidden within. We were about to enter the room via the doorway while the two zombies in the room were busy with some unfortunate person. There were two pistols laying to the right of the room's second doorway. I pointed them out to Claire very quietly. I pulled her to the safety of the hallway, while I strategized the situation.
"I'll distract the two zombies, you take the guns and shoot their asses ok?" I said.
Just then a woman about 20ish with green hair ran into the room we were just in. Just like that she ran screaming from the room while the two zombies followed close behind. "That works too!" Claire blurted out in disbelief. "Who was that?" I asked. "I don't have a clue..." Claire said, squinting to try to see who it was. "Lets get the guns, shall we?" "Sounds good, Jeff... but I'll get them, you see about the strange woman. I'll catch up with you later." "Ok, sounds like a plan." I was nearly at the end of the hallway by the time Claire entered the room when she let out a scream. I ran all the way back. When I saw the unfortunate person who was seemingly dead a moment before suddenly have Claire backed against the wall with no defense, I ran to pick up the guns and I raised one to the side of the zombies head. "Dodge this, you piece of shit!" I said as I fired a shot into the zombie's head. The head exploded with blood splattering everywhere. Claire was still motionless as I approached her...
