Chapter 36:Out of the Dead and into the Sewer
I ran up the steps with the group and headed outside where we saw that it was getting darker and faster by the moment. "Jill, we've got to find a new place to hide or get out! The city will soon be too dark to see in even with the street lights." I reminded her. She nodded and looked down. I sighed as we reached the parking lot.
Then, Jill got an idea,"How about we head underground to the sewer! Its small enough to keep a good eye out and we've got to find Chris and the others!" Rebecca ran up to us and shook her head.
"We've got a problem over there! They are coming!" she yelled and threw her thumb over her shoulder. I whipped out my guns and Jill cocked her special gun. Over the small group of people, I saw shadows moving fast into the parking lot and Barry begining to shoot like a mad man. Boooooooooooooooom, the special gun I had gave him sounded like bombs being shot into walls. The zombies were literally being knocked back and forced to the ground. I took a step up next to Barry along side Jill, Leon, and Clair with some guards too. Ratatatatat-ta,boooom, rattatatatata-ta, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, boooooom, bullets flew into the horrid of zombies but they still kept coming!
"So many innocent lives just keep coming over there! There is so many people on this island, I want to know how it can't sink.....!" I had to yell as the bullets kept flying. My fingers just pulling the 2 triggers again and again. Click, booooom, ratatatatata-ta, I ran out of bullets for the Beretta and the Glock so I whipped out the sniper rifle. I gripped the black stock and shoved the rubber stub against my stiff shoulder. I customized the gun so it can hold a clip holding 7 bullets, new barrel, the whole gun was now a metal/plastic like material, the whole thing was black, and it wasn't bolt action anymore, just automatic. I put my face up to the scope and aimed into the horrid that was getting much closer. Bang! The kick didn't bother me a bit. Bang! again and again the gun shot, bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang, boooom, ratatatata-ta, click, click, BOOM! Barry final shot a gernade out of his gun and the rest of the team reloaded. I slammed a fresh, narrow clip in and let my home made bullets rip. The new, custom made bullets had double the gun powder then the other time I used it so know, when I fire, it hits like a bomb and it has a nasty kick. The zombies only a few feet away but getting fewer,BOOOM! "Shit!!!!!!!" I yelled as the gun fired and I hit the floor. My shoulder almost broke there as the gun clattered against the floor next to me. I slowly got up and looked to see what the damage did. There were 3 zombies pretty much linedu p almost just standing still, not moving.
"Holy shit.....Mark, what the fuck did you just do?" Barry asked silently..... It almost seemed like time stopped by everything else moved. The zombies behind it still came foward. Then, blood began to ooze and big holes began to appear in their stomachs...Clunck, they all hit the floor at the same time.
"Bingo! What do I win?!" I yelled and got right back up and everyone else still in aw. I picked the heavy rifle back up and bagan to shoot again,BOOOM! This time I didn't fall down, I was used to it now, BOOOOM! The zombies began to drop like wasted ducks, BOOOM!!! I stopped as the last 2 hit the floor. We all jumped up and down. We finally stopped cheering and we searched around for the nearest sewer drain with the rest of the survivors.

Wesker sat down at the desk and began to search through the mess of files on the top. The portable lamb over hanging the desk flickered a bit. He had found it just sitting there on. Someone else must have been here and returned the key. He though earlier. He was in the info rooms in the small facility where behing him were draws and filing cabinets, the desk was next to the open door he had gone through into the hall, and there was a bathroom in the back. Some of the virus carries had goten in somehow but they didn't pose a threat to him. Wesker slammed his fist against the desk top,"Damn! Where the hell is the files for the new experiment! I must have them, now! The virus will spread further and soon through the ocean and into Manhatten soon and I've got to find it soon! The public will find out and then the U.S army will come in and I can't have that happen just yet...." He cursed himself and got up. Wesker kicked the chair out of the way and walked out into the hall again. He had killed 2 carriers in the hall, just slumped against the wall, dead. Wesker snickered and walked down the poorly lit hall. The power here will surely stop soon........Then, there will be no light to shine here and that will be no good. He walked out and into a staircase. Small metal steps went down along the grey walls of the room. Wesker stepped onto the metal mesh platform with his boots and began to jog down the mesh steps making an annoying clanking sound.
------------------------------------------------
Chris got out of the elevator first into a big room. They were on a mesh platform overhanging a big computer room. There was a big screen on the wall infront of them, many rows of computers below but a big desk was placed infront of the rows and infront of the screen, and there was a door to their left. Josh nodded to the left where the door was so they began to slowly walk along the metal mesh platform along the wall. Chris grabbed the metal doorknob and twisted it around making a jingle noise but it wasn't that loud. He opened the door and saw a zombie edged toward him in the hall,booooom! He let the gun rip and plaster the zombie to bits.
--------------------------------------------
Wesker heard the shots overhead as he touched the last step,"Shit, someone else is here! Oh well, since this place will be no more, why not let the pets loose to play before dying."

I pulled the heavy metal cap off and threw it to my side. I looked down the hole and heard more water rushing rapidly. Rebecca went down first, then Jill, then Barry, then Jack, then Marcia,the the rest of the suvivors, and finally me. I stepped on the solid concrete path and looked over the edge next to me. Water rushed deepily down into more darkness. To my left us was a metal walkway across the game infront of a small waterfall leading to a path in the wall. There was another small ladder next to my right that lead down to another walkway lining the water.
"Guys, I've got a map of the sewer layout. Across this bridge leads to another paths that goes down and to the right, going to a security booth over looking the water. Its the safest place here I bet." he said. The team began to go across and Marcia went infront of me and I was last. She began to cross halfway and then I took a step on when....RRRRRR! The bridge snapped in two and Marcia fell down with it.
I stepped back when a scream came out,"AHHHHH!!!"
"Marcia! Shit!" I yelled and the rest of the suvivors crossed,"You guys go ahead! I'm gonna find Marcia, stay at the booth till I come back. If I don't come back in an hour, find a way to escape! Or I'll just radio it in that I'm fine!" The group nodded and walked away and I turned to the ladder and went down.
