Part II: Reanimation
Chapter Eleven: Informant Revealed

Cypher's men sped down the tracks in an HFC four-wheel drive van. Mountains were a small distance away, "Drive on the tracks," he said.
The van came onto the tracks and an Umbrella train car stood on the tracks. The van stopped in front of the car and everyone got out. Four more trucks stopped behind as he got out. He walked to the train with his trench coat dragging on the snow. His men were already on the train and two bodies were carried out and both lay on stretchers.
One of his men came up to him, "These two are barely alive. I'm going to call in a chopper."
"Good, I'm going to check out the bodies," he said walking toward the stretchers. He looked at the unconscious man and smiled, "Hmm, Mr. Roland, I told you so, be careful who you trust, because your life depends on it."
He walked to the next one seeing a woman. "I don't know your name, but we'll find out."
A few minutes later the chopper came and the two people were loaded into the cabin on stretchers. Cypher boarded the abandoned train car and walked down the aisle and sat in one of the seats, brushing snow off his trench coat. He had been waiting for Corin Pearson for nearly two days now, waiting for him to deliver the virus.
Cypher looked seeing one of his men standing beside him holding a phone out to him. "You have a call, sir."
"Thank you," he said, taking the phone. He put the phone to his ear and spoke, "Hello?"
"I hope you still remember me."
"Corin? Well what a surprise. I see you left a little incident back here."
"I have something you want. Something you sent me to get."
"Ah, I see, I have been waiting for the package for two days now. When are you delivering the virus?"
The line was silent and he heard Corin laughing. "I'm not. Not now. Never. They are mine. And there is nothing you can do about it." The line went dead and Cypher handed the phone back to the man.
He got up and exited the train. Already his men were planting C4 around the train. He walked off toward the vehicles and got in. The men ran off and the train car exploded into a ball of flames.
A woman knocked on the window and he rolled it down. "Ah, Charice, what news do you have for me?"
She put her hood down and looked at him, "I just got info on the two people; the man's name is Tange Roland, U.B.C.S. corporal-"
"I know, I know," Cypher said interrupting her, "I know who he is. What is the woman's name?"
"Oh, she is an S.W.A.T. member of the Scrapeson Police Station. I just got word that she's going to be fine. Tange. They say he's in a coma, they found samples of the T-VERONICA virus in his system."
Cypher looked at her, "Get me a chopper. Tell everyone to get out of here and head back to headquarters."
Charice walked off, talking into a radio as he stepped out. He checked his watch. They had just less than ten minutes to get out of here. During the trip here, they had beaten the National Guard and army to cover the incident.
He looked toward the wrecked car seeing that everyone was piling snow on the wreckage. The bomb squad had gone deeper into the mountains to set off more bombs to cover the railway.
Charice ran up to him holding her hood on her head, "The chopper will be here momentarily, say like three minutes.
He nodded seeing the squad getting closer to the rest of the group.
Boom! A muffled explosion sounded off in the distance and Cypher saw a small avalanche block the way to the facility and bury the tracks.
He heard the helicopter overhead as it flew to the left of him and set down. He ran toward it and got in.
The chopper lifted off into the gray sky and went towards headquarters. The trucks and vans sped off in the direction they came. Cypher looked out the window seeing that the National Guard and everyone else just passed by him, a little too slow there my friends. He smiled a little as the chopper sped off toward headquarters.
Note: It's a real short chapter, cuz I started it as a prologue when I seperated the stories, so I'm adding the upcoming chapter also. Yipee Yay Ya Yaaaa.
