It was dark, the alleyways were covered in fear and death. The moon had reached it's peak in the sky, it towered over raccoon city, and it's people. What was left of them anyways. Though cold, the air in the sky was refreshing, as Alyssa and Kevin breathed in, it was as though it was coating their lungs, helping them heal from the ash and smoke that once consumed their airways. As she walked, Alyssa's thoughts were elsewhere. She had stepped in and out of hell, fought it's demons, and survived. Only it was odd, to have entered such a place drowning in such evil, and end up leaving it with the devil herself. Monica. "It's not much further" Monica said walking at a fast pace.

"And what exactly is 'it'" Alyssa asked with a touch of sass in her voice.

"You'll see" Monica replied not looking back to them as they followed.

"Oh so you're just not going to tell us? Hope we follow you without any question. I mean it's not like you tried to kill any of us or anything?" Alyssa said sarcastically, looking up at Kevin "Tell me again why we're not killing her?" Alyssa finished again with a sassy tone of voice.

"I did just save your life...or was it that you wanted a dozen guards to shoot you down, and then have umbrella use your body to test their latest scientific masterpiece , deforming and mutilating your body until people can't even see the humanity in you anymore?"

Alyssa gave the back of Monica's head a dirty look, "Maybe..." Alyssa joked, "Or maybe I would have handled it myself" Monica smiled

"And you were doing such a fine job at that too." Monica finally looked back to glance at her

"Oh you bit.." Kevin stepped in before Alyssa could finish

"Just tell us where we are going." He said with very little emotion in his voice at all. Monica looked forward again.

"The university" she said. "And Alyssa...I'm sorry" Monica finished. Alyssa didn't say anything she just looked away. "Look I know you don't believe this, but I'm here to help, we're on the same side, trust me."

"No." Alyssa said immediately "I don't trust you. You tried to kill us, ...well not me...but everyone else, and you almost did if I hadn't stepped in and put a bullet to you...which brings me to my second point. Why are you alive! You should be dead. Or don't you remember Kevy here throwing you out the window for the zombies to..." Kevin stopped her there

"Alyssa!" Kevin almost yelled. Alyssa looked at him, surprised, she would have thought he would be the last person to stop her from verbally butchering Monica. Kevin looked down at his feet, as though in pain. Then he looked back up "She's right Monica, I saw you die."

Monica stopped and turned around "Alright listen, I know you have a lot of questions, and there are very good reasons why you should. But we have to wait until all of you are gathered together, in the university." She then began walking again.

"Yeah what about the others! How do you expect them to know where to go, and who's to say they're even still alive?." Alyssa asked, talking to the back fo Monica's head again, which bothered the hell out of her.

"Is Yoko with them?" Monica asked

"...Yes.." Alyssa answered questioning her reason for asking that.

"Then they'll be fine, and they will most certainly know where to go. As for George, I found him already, and told him where to go, he should be there by now." Monica finished

Alyssa looked to her side at the brick wall, covered in dirt and ash, probably from an explosion of some kind, "I don't like this." she muttered

"You don't have to. Just keep up" Monica said, and they continued walking towards the university


The gunshot rang loud through the silver hallways of the surviving section of the hotel. The deluxe suites. They were gorgeous, the rest of the hotel was left scummy and unkept, where as here it was as though being prepared for royalty. The battle on the opposite side of the door the team was on, had weakened them, and left them tired. The site of Mark holding a 9mm pistol in their direction, did not make healing from bite marks any easier. At first David thought the sudden betrayal was due to him perhaps noticing he and Cindy had been bitten, but he soon realized it was something much larger than that. Their conversation lasted only a few minutes before Mark pulled the trigger. The blood splattered on the silver wall, and slowly smeared south as the body slid down the wall to the ground. Mark smiled.


"Sir we have a small problem." A soldier said, as he removed his gas mask.

"What is it?" the scientist said, not taking his eyes off his computer, as if he didn't care.

"It's Monica sir..." that name grabbed his attention and he quickly looked up at the soldier, "...She's alive." The scientist got up off his seat and looked the soldier in the eye.

"That, captain... is not small." he than walked around the captain, and began speaking to the entire room, filled with numerous scientists in lab coats. "Alright I want everyone on red alert, get security watching the city camera feeds, I want everything we have on the G-virus, and long term effects on it's host. Blue Ruby is somehow still walking amoung us, and I want to know where she is." The man sat down on his chair and wiped his face with his hands. He then looked at the new computer screen he was in front off and muttered "...Peterson.."


"No!" Cindy screamed, but was silenced by Mark pistol whipping her in the back of the head. She hit her head on a table followed by the ground and was left unconscious. David grabbed Marks arm and pushed it against the wall forcing him to drop the gun on the ground, then David stabbed his knife right threw Mark's hand pinning it to the wall. Mark let out a cry in pain.

"Do find pleasure out of hurting little girls or are just too scared to stand up to a man!" David yelled in anger, then used all his force to punch Mark in the face. He slid to the ground on the wall, his hand still pinned. And sat there unconscious. David ran over to Yoko, who was holding her stomach, her hands drenched in her own blood, her eyes, dripping with tears. "Yoko... stay with me. Everything is going to be fine. You expect me to believe a tough girl like you is gonna leave us because of some tiny hunk of metal." David felt tears welding up in his eyes. Over the time he spent with her, David had become attached to Yoko. Though she never made any sense to him, and she didn't even seem very human anymore, there was something about her strength that he admired.

"David..." Yoko reached up and stroked his cheek with her hand. She smiled, it wasn't a very satisfying smile, as if she was losing the muscles in her face. "It's okay David...it wont be much longer, we wont have to hurt much longer...it will all be over soon."

"No Yoko don't say that! You have to fight this!" David grabber her face and looked deeply in her eyes. He hadn't noticed it, but for some reason her eye colour had changed froma deep hazel brown to a bright almost glittering blue. She stared intently

"The University... they're waiting." Yoko opened her eyes wider, as if she had seen the devil face to face, "...Let the fire take us." she closed her eyes and left her consciousness behind.

Mark had awoken, and pulled the knife out of his hand, trying not to make any noise as he did so. He slowly got up, David was too busy grieving over Yoko's wound, hoping she would survive it, to notice him at all. " Pathetic." Mark said as he raised his knife in the air. David looked up unable to do anything.

"This is the end.." he thought. Just as Mark was ready to strike David with the blade, a bullet tore through his forehead covering David and the unconscious Yoko with his blood. He fell lifelessly to ground. Standing behind him was Cindy. Her head was bleeding and her hair was falling out of her ponytail and into her face. Her expression reeked of anger, andlook in her eye made her seem like she was a killer bred for this. David almost felt afraid. He'd seen Cindy fight before, but she was never like this. This was hate. Cindy had murdered, this wasn't simply killing a zombie trying to escape death but she had shot a living breathing human being. Suddenly the gun hit the ground and Cindy jumped down to David and Yoko to see what she could do. David only looked at Cindy. She looked up smiled, an almost fake emotionless smile. She then went back to trying to bandage up Yoko's wound.


Monica opened a set of double doors, Kevin was behind her to her right. He was still wearing his police uniform and Alyssa was behind her to her left, she was wearing a full red suite one of the pant legs was ripped at the thigh so she just tore it off revealing most of her leg. All the weapons they collected had been lost in the fire, but that was not on their minds. They had entered the university and in the lobby was an older man in a white lab coat, wearing a set of small rectangular glasses. Beside him was George now covered in ash and dirt, and was talking to the other man. When they noticed the three entering the room the man walked around his desk to greet them "Monica, good you're back." Monica nodded, "Alright I know you have many questions for me, and I assure you, we will answer everything, but we must wa.."

"Wait for the others. We know." Alyssa said with an annoyed tone to her voice. The old man was confused but simply shrugged and walked back to his desk, Monica followed him. Alyssa walked over to George.

"George..." Alyssa said concerningly

"I honestly don't know Alyssa." George said. Alyssa was confused by that, "You were going to ask me why I listened to her right? Monica? Even though she tried to kill us all." Alyssa now understanding what he meant before, she simply continued to listen, "There were two men who grabbed me as I left the hotel, men in black uniforms. Monica saved me. She told me to come here, she said Cindy would be here. I had no choice Alyssa...I had to trust her." Alyssa grabbed his shoulder and smiled, if there is one thing she understood it was when someone was in love. Suddenly the double doors exploded open and standing there was Cindy holding a pistol and David carrying and unconscious Yoko. Behind them was the pouring rain and the clash of thunder. Each of them covered in blood, in worse shape than anyone else. They all ran over to them. Alyssa and Kevin helped carry Yoko to a table to rest her on, and George ran over to Cindy, "Cindy, what happened?"

Cindy looked up at him "well we were attacked by a giant building sized monster, and Mark blew him up with a rocket launcher, then we met this guy who had a mutated tongue impale threw his stomach, followed by us having to slaughter a massive horde of hungry dead people, oh yeah and then Mark shot Yoko so I killed him." She gave a small sarcastic smile. George just looked at her like she was crazy, then smiled back. Cindy walked away to go check on Yoko. George just looked outside at the rain, then suddenly looked back confused

"Wait...who's Mark?


Alright so that was chapter one I hope you liked it. Okay so this story is gonna be a bit different from the rest. Like Hive/hellfire I'm gonna do something different than the game, but keeping some important parts of the level, also I'm gonna take more time and really build on the characters, just so you all know the story's main plot is already written so it shouldn't take too long, and I'll tell you, I'm very proud of what I've done, Hive/Hellfire was rushed and sloppy but I've learnt my lesson, trust me this is gonna be something worth reading. In the next chapter almost EVERYTHING will be explained and you'd be surprised just how much that is, so if you've been following and remember big questions, and little ones I left you with, you'll be happy to have them answered, there wont be too much action or actually much movement at all really, just a lot of talking. So bare with me, If anyone has any questions they want answered or they just want to say something, you can post a comment or you can email me, I'm hoping after the next chapter you'll have something to say. Thanks
