Resident Evil: NE
No Escape Part 6
What's happen so far: The gang has made it into the labs and is looking for what ever is making the virus spread so quickly. Robert has had a voice speak to him in his head and Natasha finally reveals why she quiet the service. Now they must find out why they are here and what awaits them at the end of the hall.
As the gang went down the stairs of the hidden hallway, thoughts of what to come raced through their mind. What awaited them and would they be able to defeat it. They walked for what seemed like forever.
"How long do we have to go Jason, my feet are killen me" said Wayne
"Just deal with it, I think we're almost there" said Jason. They walked down the stairs for five more minutes till coming to a heavy metal door. Robert walked up and checked it out, he turned to Natasha.
"I don't think you little lock picking system can work on this" he asks. She shook her head. Robert sighed and look to Jason.
"Got a plan Mister Smarty pants" Jason thought for a moment.
"Unless we find some explosive, we ain't going anywhere"
"What I wouldn't do for explosives right now" Sighed Robert. Josh walked over and leaned against the door.
"Guess we have no choice but to start looking for..." before Josh could finish his sentence the door automatically slid open, making him tumble over backward. He rolled twice before coming to a stop. Everyone ran in to see if he was hurt.
"You ok bro" Robert said through laughter, Jen smacked him upside the head "Ow what I do"
"I'm fine just a little stunned" Josh said rubbing his arm. He got to his feet and looked to see where he had stumbled into. Every where were tubes and wires' running from here to there, the tubing was almost a whole city when you thought about it. There were old rusted animal cages laying every where.
"They tested on animals, that's just mean" said Jen. And indeed it was for it was in that lab that every one realized that Umbrella was not just a cosmetics company. They where making weapons of mass destruction for the US and testing them on animals.
"No wonder the White House was quick to put up a blockade, they didn't want anyone to find out their dirty little secret" Wayne said, the sound of a bang made everyone jump. They turned to see Jason with his fist clinched on the table.
"Why would they do this, why would they not tell me about this"
"Jason, what do you mean by "they not tell me about this"?" ask Josh. Jason sighed
"You know I retired from S.T.A.R.S a month after when you and Robert joined" the two brothers nodded "well I said I left because I was getting to old for it, when in fact I was in the peek of my life, there was nothing that I couldn't do" he paused "The truth to why I quit is because I'm agent for a secret organization run by the White House" Every one was stun "I was sent to keep tabs on Umbrella. I just thought that Umbrella was just a regular old company with its problems. But I was wrong they were just using me, like a paper plate, I knew the rules but I ignored them" He looked to Robert and Josh "That's because I meet you guys, you two were always so cheerful, even though your parents died when you were young. It reminded me of myself when I was just starting in S.T.A.R.S, always doing it my way and doing it right. You made me forget about what I was and for a while I thought I was living a normal life but then this happen and reminded me of what I am. I'm just tired of being used." Wayne cut in.
"Jason, we all get used in our lives, you just got to tell them "It's my way or the highway". Why do you think I'm unemployed, living in a dumb apartment? Because the computer company I used to work with wanted me to hack into the national bank and forward them money. I couldn't do that so they fired me. Sometimes it's better without a job then it is with one" Jason was silent for a moment
"Your right, when we get out of this mess, I'm quitting my job and coming back to S.T.A.R.S, so lets find whatever is controlling things around here and tell it get the hell out" Every one yelled in agreement, Robert and Josh gave each other a high five and then gave Jason a playful punch. They began to look around the lab, looking for any sign of what was controlling everything. No luck, in twenty minutes they were back in the middle of the room.
"Anyone find anything?" ask Jen. They shook their heads.
"I give up" said Robert "Maybe what ever was controlling things already died" he started to laugh but stopped and grabbed his head in pain
"Robert what's wrong" ask Natasha.
"I.....I don't know it's like some things clawing my brain" He fell to the floor and screamed in pain. After a moment he stopped and looked to his friends. "I know were we have to go" he got up and went to a desk, search for a few seconds till he found what he was looking for, a button. He pressed it and the sound of gears turning and grinding was heard as a piece of equipment slide to its left along with a huge part of the wall to revel a pair of double doors. Josh look to his brother
"Bro, how did you know where that was? You've never been here have you?" Robert shrugged
"I don't know how I knew; it was like it was downloaded into my mind, kind of like what happened to that guy from that movie we saw, what was his name again?"
"Nemo?" Natasha suggested
"Aw forget it lets just go through the door and find out what has been doing all this" They walked over to the door to find it key padded and locked.
"Any way you could to that Nemo thing now" ask Wayne
"Nope it's not happening again" sighed Robert
"Every one spread out and look for a key or something" said Jason. Everyone started to look for a key. They didn't look long because the sound of shattering glass made every one jump. They turned to see Jen smiling.
"What did you just do?" Natasha yelled
"Well I got tired of looking and thought they it be easier if I just broke the glass" Jen said awkwardly. Natasha was about to give her the long lecture when Robert step in.
"Very good, no one even thought of just breaking the glass instead of looking for hours for one stupid key. I like your thinking"
"Thanks" said Jen with a smile, Natasha was about to blow, Wayne put his arm around her, leaned close to her ear and whispered
"Happy place, just be in your happy place" Natasha grumbled but calmed down. As they went through the door the smell of rotting flesh meet their noses, it was worse in here then any place they had been. But they didn't realize that it only got worse, for when to entered the room, it was like one hundred elephants went through a shredder three hundred times. There was blood and guts everywhere. Arms, legs, heads, and other body parts lay on the floor. Wayne turned around and hurled up what seemed like the entire food he ate in his life, Jen nearly fainted if it wasn't for Jason who caught her on the way down.
"W-w-what happened in here!?!?!" Ask Josh out load
"Looks like the butcher had a birthday" said Robert. They stepped slowly into the center of the room, they looked to see a huge machine (And I mean the tallest rollercoaster kind of huge) covered in flesh and blood from top to bottom.
"What the heck it that thing" ask Wayne
"It looks like the central power generator" said Jason
"I don't see anyone or thing here" said Josh
"There has to be, something was controlling everything right" said Natasha. Just as Natasha said those words an alarm sounded as the steel security doors came down in front of the door they had come through, locking every one inside. Josh ran to the door, he tried opening in but failed. He banged his fist on the door.
"It's no use, it won't budge"
"What caused it to close" asked Jason. A laughed answered his question. Everyone looked at each other, hoping that they had been the one laughing. They started at each other shocked as none of their mouths moved as another laughed echoed threw out the room.
"Finally we can get this little party started"
"Who's talking, show your self!" Jason yelled
"Why, I'm right in front of you. The big tall one you can't miss me" The voice laughed again.
"The Generator!" said Robert; they turned to see an eye had formed on the generator and was looking down on them.
"What the heck is that" asked Jen
"It's the puppet master behind this whole thing" said Wayne, the generator laughed
"Guess the fat one isn't that dumb after all ha-ha, allow me to introduce myself, I am Doctor Jones or I used to be. I believe you saw my old self, I was the one with his head completely gone."
"Cut the crap, why are you doing this?" asked Natasha, Jones smirked
"So your that little test rats sister, Natasha right. Your sister talks about you a lot, always saying you would save her and kill all of us. But it looks like you're too late, for she's no longer with us..."
"YOU BASTERD!!" Natasha drew her gun and fired madly at Jones, she hit him but the bullets just sunk in to the flesh that had covered him. Jones just laughed as a tentacle formed from the flesh and blood
"Your so hasty, she no longer with us here, I had her moved to another lab, she's fine she just doesn't realize what's happening around her." Natasha stopped shooting, just the moment Jones was waiting for. He swung his tentacle, hitting Natasha across the room. She hit the wall with a thump.
"Natasha!!" Wayne yelled as he ran over to her "Natasha are you ok?" She looked up to him in a dazed
"I don't know, I think my right arms broken" She tried to get up but sank back down to the floor "ya think you could give me a shoulder" Wayne nodded and helped her to her feet. "Thanks" she fainted from the pain. Jones laughed, Jason looked like he had smoke coming from his ears.
"Just tell us why your doing this so we can get to the part were we kick your mutated butt to the deeps of hell!" Jason said
"Why don't I just skip the "I was used and I want revenge" story and get right to the point. I WANT EVERY ONE AND EVERY THING DEAD" I tentacle shot straight at Jason. Jason ducked out the way seconds before it smashed into the ground behind him. Josh and Robert drew their guns and aimed at the freak of nature.
"Jason you alright?" ask Josh, Jason got up from the ground and nodded. He looked up at the eye that was Jones.
"How bout we make this fair Jones, you let those three go and we'll give you a fight" Jones chuckled
"I would, but you see I used a hacking program that I had a co-worker make to activate a level one security lock down. Alas I didn't ask him how to undo this program, so your all just gonna have to fight."
"Leave them out of this!!" said Robert
"How can I leave them out of this, when they can't even get out!?" Jones laughed as three more tentacles formed. "Besides I want to play with them for awhile" Jones sent the four tentacles at Wayne, Natasha, and Jen. Jen screamed as the tentacles landed next to them. Jones laughed as he did this repetaly. Robert couldn't hold it any more, he fired at Jones oversized eyed. It hit dead center. Jones screamed in pain.
"Bastard!!" A tentacle came out of nowhere heading straight for Robert. Robert may be quick on his feet it was too little to late. The tentacle hit him sending him flying across the room; he hit the storage room door going straight through the wooden board.
"ROBERT!!" screamed Jen and started to run to him but Wayne grabbed her.
"No! It's not safe right now" Wayne said, and indeed he was right, for the flesh and blood began to seep together making mutant creatures.
"Let's see how you do against my creations" said Jones
"Wayne there a computer terminal over near the door, get started on hacking that program. I'll protect the girls" Jason yelled
"Gotcha" said Wayne as he laid Natasha against the wall and ran across the room to the terminal. Josh was trying to fight the mutants while trying to get to his brother still in the storage closet.
"Bro you alright, Bro say something" Josh said as he swung the butt of his gun into the face of a mutant. Another jump at him from the air and landed on his back, Josh pulled it over his head and slammed the back seat rider on the floor.
"Something" Robert said as he appeared in the door way, he had something in his arms. "This storage room had everything to make a grade A bomb" he held up a small computer screen "I call it "The Y2Ka-Boom". Now I need you and Jason to keep Jones and his monsters away from me while I setup this thing"
"Roger that" Josh said as he turned around and fired madly at the mutants. Jason saw what was going on and fired at Jones. Jones turned his eye to Jason.
"Bad move man" Jones sent his tentacles at Jason again, Jason shot them to pieces, this pissed off Jones even more as he made six more tentacles.
"Try this!!" Jones was too occupied with Jason that he didn't see Robert run under him and place the bomb. Robert smiled and stood back.
"Hey Wayne, how's that door coming?" he asked
"Should have it in two minutes." Robert smirked and stepped back.
"Hey Jones" he yelled, Jones stopped what he was doing and looked down at Robert.
"Welcome back, have a nice flight?"
"Yea but the in flight movie sucked" This made Jones laugh "Don't laugh too much or I might decide to control, alt, delete you" Robert pointed to the monitor he had put at the base of Jones. Jones stopped laughing.
"So that's what you were doing in that closet for so long, making a bomb" Jones said
"Lucky guess" Robert said
"Oh no, was no lucky guess, Brother"
"Brother? I'm his only brother here" said Josh, Jones smirked
"Well that's as close as I can put our connection. Robert, you remember our first meeting; you were burning up as I recall."
"That was you in my head" Robert asked
"Yes it was, I decided on you because you were the only one with a free mind. Every one else was to straight forward. But that's not the only reason. Your parents turned down my product that I had worked on for years; they said it was too unstable. So what if it was unstable, it was a scientific break through and I would have gotten millions for it. I wanted revenge for that, it didn't matter their generation or next.
"So this whole deal, this whole out break, was to get us here?" ask Josh
"Correct my friend, I did all this, even getting Nemesis to help me, and everything was a lure to get you and your brother here." Said Jones "I just thought that while I'm at it, I'd kill the entire population" Jones laughed "Now why don't you just calm down and let me get the layout for this bomb of yours" Robert raised his gun to fire at Jones but quickly dropped it as Jones dove into his head once more. He sunk to his knees
"Get.....out....get...out" Robert panted; Jones hummed for a few seconds then opened his humungous eye.
"So that was your plain, its not even activated yet"
"What! Robert would never forget to activate a bomb" said Jason
"Oh no, he didn't activate it for a reason. He was going to distracted me while fatso over there worked on the door, then when he got the door open he would point to the bomb under me, then shot me in the eye again to give you time to get out and thought that I might panic and push the button to "deactivate" it." Jones said with a smirk. Over at the terminal, Wayne was almost done with the hacking program.
"Just a few more key strokes and..." The computer made a quick binging noise as Wayne crack the hacking program. "Yes, nothing can stop my mad hacking skills. Hey its don..." Jason cut him short
"Shut it!!" too late, Jones heard him.
"So you hack the program, bravo. Looks like you guys are free to go...but there is the matter of this "firework" I know lets watch it together" Jones shot his tentacle at the power button on the computer.
"No!!" Robert dove at the computer, landing on it just as Jones tentacle reached it. Jones didn't stop though; he drove his tentacle into Roberts back. Robert let out a scream.
"Get out of here, I got this freak!" Robert said through his pain as Jones sent his tentacle through his back repeatedly
"No bro, I won't leave you" Josh said.
"You have too, now get the girls and get out of here"
"No, I'm gonna stay and help" Josh started fighting his way to his brother
"GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!" Robert said with fire in his eyes. Josh stopped in his tracks. He clinched his fist and looked at his feet.
"When I see you again, I'm give you the worst nuggy you've ever had"
"I'll look forward to it" Josh turned around and headed for Jason. Jason knew what they had to do; he picked up Natasha and looked to Jen.
"Stay close" She nodded still looking at Robert, Josh noticed.
"He's always like that, wanting to be the hero." Jen looked at Josh to see he had tears in his eyes, he looked at her.
"Let's go" They headed for the door, Wayne started to say something but stopped when he saw the look on Jason's face. They went through the door running for the stairs. Robert smiled
"Didn't you even notice that half of your party has left the building?" Jones stopped playing operation and looked around. He gave an angry cry when he saw what had happen "Oh don't be mad at me, you were the one having too much fun.
"I'll kill you!!" Jones yelled
"Your time is up Jones!!" He pushed the power button...
Jason, Josh, Wayne, and Jen just made it to the exit when they felt the whole building shake. They got about ten feet from the door when another explosion followed. They all turned to see the former Umbrella Labs fall to the ground in a burning heap. Jen broke out into tears.
"He's gone..." Was all she could say, Josh put his arm around her.
"He may be gone from our lives but he's not gone from our hearts. We must cherish the time we had with him, whether it be long or short." Jen wiped her tears with the back of her arm.
"So the outbreak has stopped"
"Yea, thanks to Robert"
"He may have been a pervert, but he was a good one" Natasha said half awake on Jason's back.
"Let's go, let us go and start our new lives. New lives we can have because of him" said Jason. Wayne walked up to Jason.
"I got a favor to ask, before you quit that secret U.S. organization, could you get the location of Amber." Jason nodded "Thank you, I'm sure she'll be happy when she sees her sister again" It started to rain then, putting out the fire of the once deadly Umbrella labs. Everyone took one last look at it then headed onward to their new lives. But as they left, the ruble started to shake. They didn't hear the ruble move as a hand rose up from the ashes.
Thanks to all who took the time to read this story, it has been a long road for me. I started this story two years ago but stopped after finishing the first part mainly from a huge mental block. A year later I got my writing grove back and finished the story. When I write a story, I visualize it as a movie in my head and try the best I can to put it into words. As for a squeal, I'm gonna take a break for a month then think about it. Thanks to all my friends who gave me the push I needed to write again and to you again.
