I only Own My OCs, I do not own Tess, Bentley, Qwark, Carmelita, or any House of the Dead Characters.

Taylor soon comes out of the hideout, and soon heads for the starting point. Once she reaches the point with Tess on her shoulder, Bentley, Qwark and Carmelita meet up with her along with Sophie. Bentley soon said, "Okay guys, Thomas and G are on their way here, but we need to save as many scientists as possible, Carmelita, Qwark you guys will be with me since all three of us have marksman skills to shoot the creatures," Qwark and Carmelita nodded, then Bentley said, "Taylor, I need you and Tess to protect Sophie at all costs as well."

"You got it, Bentley," Taylor said.

So, everyone went and did their tasks, Taylor and Tess protected Sophie while Bentley with his crossbow, Qwark with his blast, and Carmelita with her pistol began shooting the enemy, but the creatures were a bit too much. Just as the mission was becoming a bust, a car pulled in at the entrance of the mansion, and two men came out. one with a trench coat, and the other wearing a suit, they soon took out the zombies to help Bentley, Qwark, and Carmelita, the looked at a scientist that got bitten by one of the zombies which the trio were too late to save, he was barely alive, when he gave the group a photo and a book, and said, "Others are still inside. Save them," and he laid dead.

The trio felt sad that they couldn't save him, but were soon attacked by more zombies, and they took them out, then went off, taking out more zombies and saving the scientists. Eventually, they reached the fountain area, where Taylor was fighting some zombies, and Sophie was lying there, causing the man in the trench coat to say, "Sophie?!"

Soon some more different creatures appeared and attacked the trio with more zombies, but they were taken out. Once the enemies were dealt with, Sophie got up, thanks to Taylor, and said, "Rogan, it's you!"

Suddenly something swooped in and taken Sophie, who screamed. The group looked up and saw a gargoyle-like creature having Sophie in his feet claws, and said, "NOBODY LEAVES HERE ALIVE!" It then leaves with a cackle while carrying a screaming.

"Sophie!" the man, Rogan called.

Taylor soon sees more zombies, and said, "Save the sympathies later, we got company!"

The group soon began fighting and taking out more zombies, even a grimy on that came out of the fountain. They eventually reached a bridge where the Mansion was on the other side but notice a zombie carrying a scientist to toss him over the bridge, but Rogan soon shoots the zombie, saving the scientist. The scientist soon said while giving what looks like a health pack, "Thank you," and began to leave the Mansion.

The group soon see some strange leeches approaching them, but the marksmen soon shoot them all, and the group proceed, taking out some zombies under the bridge, and some mutant frogs after they crossed it, went up the stairs, where a zombie with axes gets up, but Rogan and his partner took it out.

Rogan soon said, "Alright everyone, let's go in."

"Sure. Why not?" Rogan's partner asked.

Rogan tried to open the doors, but were locked, so he shoots the lock, breaking it, kicked the doors, and the group enter the Mansion. Inside they meet some hairy mutated creatures swinging on a chandelier but took one out, while the other retreated up the stairs, which the group followed. Two more zombies blocked their path, but were easily dealt with, as the group heads up the stairs, more mutant leeches were there to meet them, but were taken care of.

The turned right and saw a hoard of zombies, near a scientist, but were all killed, saving the scientist, who gave the two men a health pack, and said, "Thank you," and left the building.

The group went through some double doors, where another hairy mutant was there to greet them, but they greeted it back with gunshots. They continue down the hall, then two more hairy mutants jumped from the left but were then killed, causing Taylor to say, "These guys are beginning to really have a bad hair day," the others look at her, and she asked, "What? Despite the situation, isn't there any room for a bit of humor?"

"No!" the two men replied as the group continued down the hall.

They killed more zombies, but then a thump came from their right, and a door opened to reveal a brutish zombie, but was easily dealt with and enter the room it was in, which was a billiards room. They then killed another zombie, then were about to shoot, but held their fire since it was another scientist, who thanks them and escapes. Two more hairy mutants burst out of a window but were easily dealt with. Continuing down the room they killed another zombie, and some mutated bats, then were heading to another locked door when two more brutish zombies burst through a bookshelf, but they were both easily dealt with.

Rogan then shoots the lock on the door, kicks it, and revealed a room where a scientist was calling for help from below, so they jumped down and took out the zombies, saving the scientist. The scientist looks at them, and said, "Thank you! Take this," she gives them another health pack, and leaves.

The group soon sees some big-bearded zombies with chainsaws but were easily dealt with then a barrel was tossed at them. They looked up and saw two brutish zombies throwing barrels at the group, but they took out the barrels and the zombies, the more normal zombies and hairy mutants, then left the room.

They went down the hall, then heard someone calling for help, causing Rogan to say, "That voice!" The group went down the hall, took out some incoming zombies, including another big-bearded one, then entered a room, finding Sophie sitting on the floor. Rogan soon asked, "Sophie, are you OK?"

"I was so scared!" Sophie replied as Rogan helped her up.

Suddenly, an armored zombie burst through a skylight in the room, and swung it at Sophie, causing her to scream in pain as she flies near the fireplace.

Bentley was thinking of something, looked at the book the dead scientist gave them, and found a creature that matches the one they see, which said, 'Chariot type 27' and points at a spot that said weak point, causing Bentley to say, "Shoot at that red patch on its right chest, that's it's weak point.

They did what Bentley said as the Chariot advances towards them, and soon it loses its armor, revealing a greenish zombie, but the group that can shoot kept firing, until most of the Chariot was just bone and defeated.

Rogan soon looks at Sophie, and said, "Sophie!"

Sophie looks up, and said to the group, "You must stop Curien. Or else something terrible will happen," she then lays down.

"Sophie," Rogan said.

Taylor feels her wrist, and said, "She's still alive, just knocked out," she gets up, and said, "I guess we haven't introduced ourselves, I am Taylor, Taylor Fearbrave, and on my shoulder is Tess, and those who helped you are Bentley, Captain Qwark, and Inspector Carmelita Fox."

Rogan soon said, "I am Thomas Rogan, and this is my partner G."

"Nice to meet you," Taylor said, but paused, then said, "Now that we're introduced, let's go, we got to stop Dr. Curien.

Everyone nodded and began to head off.
