Chapter 3: The Lab

Leon had no idea how long he slept. All he knew was that when he awoke, they had landed and it was still night. Ada was gone, along with everyone else. He quickly gathered his belongings and went outside.

Ada was already out there with the others, and Leon inwardly gasped. They were on a beach of black sand, the ocean was a crystal clear blue and the palm trees swayed gently. This place looks so peaceful, so untouched, thought Leon, Who would've guessed that such gruesome experiments would of taken place near something like this…..

Ada made a hand motion for everyone to follow her, and Leon followed; an eerie silence accompanying them all.

They didn't have to go far. The huge building was located some yards ahead, seeming completely misplaced among the tranquility of the beach.

The automatic doors opened upon their arrival, and led them to a wall with 3 different metal doors.

" Now we each pair up into groups of 2," said Ada, " and pick a door. I picked you all specifically to work with whoever you worked best with in the past. We'll know who reaches their emergency switch because there should be an announcement on the P.A. Good luck. And remember, if you fail; the whole world's going to hell."

" Oh, but no pressure," mumbled Chris, shaking his head.

" Looks like we're partners," said Ada, turning to Leon.

" Funny. Never remember us working well in the past," said Leon, swiftly.

He went through the middle metal door, Ada behind him.

The room they were in was spacious with file cabinets lining the wall and a receptionist's desk in the corner. As well as a zombie.

Leon and Ada took out their handguns at the same time, and fired. But the zombie didn't stagger towards them. It ducked, the bullets missing it's mark. The zombie was a woman scientist at one time, wearing a blood stained lab-coat with an Umbrella logo on it. It ran at them, Leon aiming for one kneecap; Ada the other.

It dropped, Leon plugging bullets into it's fallen body to ensure it would never get up again.

" Leon, hold your ground," whispered Ada, as he reloaded.

" What? It's dead." stated Leon.

Well, that's at least what he thought..

The head exploded, and a Plaga popped out, but this Plaga wasn't attached to the body. It jumped in the air, straight for Leon's neck.

In the same instant, there was a flash of light and it died. Leon saw Ada with a flash grenade.

" The hell?" cried Leon, " Don't tell me they all do that?"

" No, some do and some don't," said Ada, " We're just lucky."

There was nothing of particular interest in the office, except a crumbled piece of paper near the exit.

Leon scooped it up and smoothed it out so he could read it. It said:

Mike has a twisted sense of humor. His horror movie obsession has gone over the edge. Our last batch of B.O.W.S are vampire based. Normal humans injected with a controlled dose of T-virus and some of Mike's own specialty of a form of G-virus; to make them have super strength, speed, and reflexes. Make excellent weapons. Problem is, hard to directly control and tend to turn on some of their own for blood.

Ada's right, thought Leon, We're very lucky to have bio-engineered vampires on our hands…

" Ada, what do you know of bio-engineered vampires?" asked Leon.

" That I wouldn't want to run into one on a dark night," she replied, " We don't have time, lets' go."

Ada opened the door that led to a lab with body sized test tubes, most shattered. A single gold key shimmered in a puddle of an unknown liquid.

" Too easy…." said Leon, as Ada bent to pick it up.

In a split second, a zombie leapt on top of her.

They set a trap! thought Leon, Great….

He opened fire of the zombie, as Ada tried to wrestle it off. She only managed to keep it inches from biting into her flesh.

Leon ran at the creature, pulling it off her. He followed up with a sharp kick to the head, and the zombie feel backwards.

"About time," said Ada, brushing herself off.

" Better later than never," he answered, as he unloaded 2 more bullets into the zombie, " It set a trap….The Ganados did too, but they weren't that good at it. You could sort of expected it, but these things pop out of no where….."

" What did you expect?" asked Ada, gingerly picking up the small gold key, " Andre is controlling them."

" How does he plan to infect the world anyway?" asked Leon.

" Water supply, the air, getting the H-virus carriers to affect others…."

" It's airborne? But I thought you had to be injected with an egg…."

" I did say it was a hybrid."

Leon ransacked the lab to find some extra ammo and a first aid spray. He feared what was behind that door. If they had this much trouble with one H-virus carrier, how were they supposed to take on an group? Or let alone survive?

Rebecca

Rebecca and Billy had chosen the first door,

" Remember, we can't shoot them in the head which is very ironic…." said Rebecca.

Billy nodded, surveying his surroundings.

The place they were in now looked like a cafeteria. Lunch tables and chairs were scattered about, some red stains were on the wall and Rebecca somehow doubted it was tomatoes.

" It's too quiet," said Billy, " The whole structure, the way it's built makes no sense."

" Since when has Umbrella made sense?"

" Good point."

Billy and Rebecca made it halfway through the cafeteria when they heard a moan. The 2 some got back to back, weapons pointed.

2 zombies staggered a little out of the shadows. One ran straight at Rebecca, who just managed to sidestep it in time.

It ran…straight at me…thought Rebecca, in horror and shock.

Rebecca fired some shots in the zombies legs, hoping to immobilize it. It fell, and she turned to see how Billy was doing.

He had finished it off, somehow, shock evident on his face. And another moan was heard. This time it was a late lunch lady, brandishing a metal pipe.

Weapons….their USING weapons? Rebecca inwardly screamed.

The zombie crept up behind Billy and she screamed his name just as the pipe was about to connect to his skull.
