Chapter 6: Arrival of a New Terror

When the group recovered they stood up. They dusted themselves off and looked around; the floor they were on was rather dark. Sappira groaned, she and Tim had landed at an awkward and embarrassing angle but they were standing up now, Tim turned to her.

"You okay?" He asked; she nodded.

"Yeah, just thinking, maybe I would've been better off not wearing a skirt today."

Tim shrugged, "We had no idea this was gonna happen, we'll manage."

She nodded and they regrouped with the others.

"Okay, believe it or not, those guys just did us a favour." Lisa stated, "We're now one floor down, even closer to the exit. So, where do we go from here?"

"If we had some light we could see the maps and figure out a way back to the stairwell." Said David.

However Jason was tense, on edge, he could feel T-Virus signatures nearby, several of them. He warned the others. "Guys, we've got infected around us; guns out, get the lights on."

They did as he said; Rose turned the lights on and took cover. The others took up a close-knit formation, watching each other's backs. Jason groaned when he saw that the infected that were surrounding them were in fact the insectoid B.O.W.s known as Chimera.

The Chimera acted immediately, advancing and rushing towards them, they opened fire desperately. Several shots hit but only a handful of the Chimera went down. It was then that Jason saw his chance. He shot up the sprinkler system in the room and forced it to turn on. With water raining down the Chimera couldn't fly, due to their wings being heavy with water. Using this to their advantage the group opened fire again, finally killing the Chimera and, thanks to David, escaping from the room they were trapped in. They reloaded and hurried out into the hall. They found to their dismay that there were more Chimera waiting for them outside. They quickly got to work, using even the smallest advantage to take down their enemies.

"Guys, this isn't going to end." Jacob stated, "We should just shoot and run."

"Problem with that." Cashmere replied, "Way too many of them and we still don't know the route."

David however noticed something familiar about the floor.

"We know the route actually." He stated, "This is the floor I work on, I know it like the back of my hand. Once we cut a gap, I'll show the way."

The others were relieved and began to whittle down the number of Chimera. Just then the rest were wiped out in a hail of gunfire.

It was then they group saw that was responsible, it was a group of Umbrella's security forces. They had crashed through the wall and killed the Chimera's now they were aiming at the group who swiftly took cover. They began exchanging fire, Jason looked around and shook his head.

"I don't like this; to many ways for them to flank us." He said.

Lisa however smirked. "Guess we should make short work of them."

With that she pulled a grenade off her belt and threw it, it exploded and killed a large number of the Umbrella forces. The group quickly opened fire on the last few members and killed the unit. They reloaded again and finally caught their breath.

"You know what this means right?" Tim asked rhetorically.

Jacob shrugged. "Now that Umbrella's here things have gotten more difficult."

Jason shook his head. "That's not the worst of it."

They were about to ask him what he was talking about when they got their answer. Dropping in through the window was the largest B.O.W. they had ever seen. The B.O.W. was at least seven feet tall and massively muscled, almost grotesquely so. His skin was brown and decayed and covered his left eye, his visible right eye was yellow in colour and he was bald; he was clad in a pair of black leather pants and a black leather trench coat and black boots. There were a few tentacle-like appendages visible on his broad shoulders and in his hands he carried some heavy duty weapons. In his right hand he held a minigun while in the left a rocket launcher. He growled when he saw them and began to advance.

The others knew they were in trouble when they saw Jason pale.

"Nemesis." He whispered and the others realized now what they were up against.

Nemesis continued its advance and raised its rocket launcher. The group all dove out of the way just in time as it fired. Completely destroying the room behind them. They immediately got to their feet and ran as Nemesis pursued them. They fired several shots at him but they proved ineffective as he simply shrugged the blows off effortlessly. Nemesis fired two more times with his rocket launcher and even let off a stream of bullets from its minigun. They continued to shot and dodged through the floor, not daring to go to the staircase with Nemesis on their tail. Nemesis fired another rocket which missed and Jason mentally calculated what it had done so far.

'Five thousand bullets in the minigun, two thousand gone already. Five rockets in the rocket launcher, four gone already...Wait, that's it.'

An idea suddenly occurred to Jason and he stopped the group and took aim with his handgun. The others watched in amazement, thinking he had gone mad. Nemesis raised his rocket launcher and Jason fired, hitting the rocket still in the launcher. The explosion destroyed the rocket launcher and blasted Nemesis. He fell to the ground and lay twitching. Jason stood up.

"C'mon, let's get to that stairwell; I don't wanna be here when he gets up."

The others agreed and followed David as they finally headed for the stairwell.

"We have several more rooms to go through." He warned, "Be ready for anything."

Tim nodded and soon the others were prepared and they continued onwards.

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
