Author's Notes: Sorry it took so long to upload this. I have began to write my Term Paper and pull together my art portfolio and hardly had time to write! Oh goodness. I hope I get into the college of my dreams. In any event this disclamier, Capcom is the owner of Resident Evil and it's characters. R&R!
Chapter 11
Chris Redfield.
Rugnuff, Western Slav Republic.
"They are acting like those Gando detailed in the Kennedy Report." I said into communicator to HQ.
"Maybe this is what Agent Nivans and Redfield are dealing with on that island. Thanks for letting us know, we'll report it to Barry. Report your location Charlie."
"We can see the radio tower from the street, sir." Jill spoke into the communicator.
"Is HQ sure about keeping us out here? It's like Raccoon City all over again." A member of Team Charlie said.
"Head to the Radio Tower and proceed with caution. Eliminate any enemy hostiles. We will be out of contact until the tower has been taken out. Good luck, Charlie."
We continued forward to find the radio tower. The sounds of church bells continued to ring in our ears. It was strange to see zombies, the monsters that seemed uncontrollable back in Raccoon City, obey the sound of a siren. I was sure to include that in my report later.
"Chris. Hurry." Jill whispered.
I had not realized I was standing in the middle of the road staring at the churches. I shook of the feeling and ran towards a large wall that appeared like a blockade. I looked up to see a the radio tower's antenna high above, touching the sky. I followed Jill through the blockade's door and noticed a large building guarded by zombies. They looked so much like the Gandos. Their eyes did not glow magenta like the other's before the blockade but they looked highly intelligent. They appeared to be guarding the radio tower and building.
We all hid behind a knocked over bus. The leader of Team Charlie sneaked a peak at the building in front of us.
The leader began to speak. "Okay here is what we d-"
The leader of Team Charlie was shot in the head. A spotlight appeared, suddenly exposing all of us from our hiding place.
Suddenly, we were being rushed by a handful of monsters, similar to the Gando. The co-captain, now the new captain ordered all of us to attack.
As we fought I began to shoot aggressively by taking out the zombies controlling Gatling guns. Some decomposed into the floor. The team was circling around avoiding shots and being attacked. I noticed a zombie heading straight for me getting ready to snatch me and throw me a short distance from them but suddenly, Jill had shot the zombie and cartwheel kicked it down to the floor. She smiled up at me then continued forward. As we circled in and reached the front doors of the building, we had lost another team member, a rookie had left cover too soon. He was close to Anni's age and was shot directly into the head. I winced trying not to think of my sister to avoid letting my emotions get involved with my work.
I wonder if she is okay. I thought.
We began to clear the first floor, making a formation in a curved T then spreading out in a line. Jill and I remained close to help each other in case we got injured. As I began to shoot down the zombie-like Gando to the ground. Many began to charge at us but they were no match for our machine guns. Each and every monster had fallen to the ground.
"Clear!" A team member had spoke softly and had broken down a door to the stair well.
"Alright keep it tight. We don't wanna lose anymore people." The new leader spoke.
We began to climb the stairwell as quickly as possible. When we reached the final floor, security became tighter and there was more monsters traveling around. The team and I were not noticed on the spot due to a wall and a glass door to the right of the staircase. The leader had peeped through the door and began to give instruction.
The sound of safety's began to click. A member of Team Charlie brought out a patch of C4 and attached it to the wall. We prepared ourselves as the dry plaster was blasted open leaving a large beep in our ears.
It was like watching things in slow motion as Jill and I began to take out some of the monsters on our lefts and rights. As the beeping finally disappeared we began in a huge fight to take over the top floor. I held my combat knife and my Samurai Edge as I charged a zombie stabbing him in the head and letting him fall to the ground. I pressed foreword and began to take out more enemies using various shots, stabs, slashes and haymakers. The sound of shots and dying monsters echoed.
Soon enough, the top floor was clear we were well prepared to shoot down the Radio Tower. Two team members circled around the large tower and began to strap C4 onto the tower.
Suddenly, a large helicopter appeared with something attached to it. One large tube was dropped onto the top floor. We all began to point our guns at the tube as more zombie-like Gando appeared with machine guns. The large tube spilt apart and fell to the floor exposing the monster hidden inside. I felt myself slowly flash backed to the Mansion Incident in Raccoon City.
A large tyrant stood tall and growled at us. The tyrant was then surrounded by a large force of zombie-like Gando.
We all prepared our guns and opened fire upon the creatures. The zombie-like Gando began to fall easily, except the large BOW. Then the sound of members of Team Charlie filled our ears.
"See if you can distract that BOW. We'll set the charges and lure him here and knock over the tower."
As soon as that sentence finished, the tyrant swung upward flinging a member of the BSAA into the air then killing him with his large tentacles.
"Tobi!" A member shouted.
Jill and I remained close, in attempt to lure the tyrant away from the other members, we shot repeatedly at the large monster. Jill and I noticed large red barrel. I opened fire upon the barrel as it engulfed into flames and exploded stunning the tyrant. It fell to it's knees then quickly recovered..
"The charges are set! We have to lure it closer!"
With that being said, a BSAA agent launched his a shot from his grenade launcher at the tyrant. It fell to the ground then charged the BSAA agent, killing him with a slash of his claw.
"Roger!" Another member cried at the death of his teammate.
There was now three of us left. The BOW suddenly charged the one BSAA member who spoke and emptied his machine gun bullets into the tyrant. The tyrant was not stunned by his shots and slashed his body apart. While the BOW was distracted Jill ran to the teammate who dropped a grenade launcher. She searched the teammates body quickly and grabbed a couple explosive rounds along with gas rounds as well. Jill quickly loaded the gas rounds into the grenade launder and shot at the BOW. The tyrant fell to his knees then stood up again.
"Jill! Hit him again!" I shouted as I began to shoot another barrel close by, stunning the tyrant another time. I moved away and hid behind a wall as Jill positioned herself a little further from the tyrant. I peaked from my hiding spot to see the tyrant stand upward once again. The tyrant procceed to attack the last member of team Charlie, he cried out as he was thrown off the building. He had dropped something. I realized it was the remote for the explosives. There was nothing we could do for the Team Charlie members, expect avenge their deaths by taking out the tyrant.
I looked at Jill who nodded and I ran passed the radio tower towards Jill as she shot two rounds of BOW gas at the tyrant, knocking him to his feet. When I was close I grabbed the explosive rounds remote from the ground and set the explosives off. The radio tower crashed downward on the tyrant and crushed a couple floors below.
"Nice job, Charlie. We can finally contact Agent Redfield and Agent Nivans. Stand by for further instructions." HQ spoke into our communicators.
"Takes you back a lot, doesn't it?" Jill said.
"Yeah. Raccoon City all over again." I frowned.
Anna-Margaret Redfield.
A Private Island in the Western Slav Republic.
I ran back into the room that we had tied Joshua to that chair. Piers followed quickly behind. When we looked to our immediate left, we noticed the pieces of tape on the floor. No sight if any boy was around. Either, Jared could have freed Joshua or he could have gotten out himself. I stomped my foot angrily.
"Next time, we duct tape them tighter." I said looking Piers in the corner of my eye.
I heard him smile. "But who has the funding to build this?"
"Terrorists. Rich people. Governments that charge tax. My guess is the government. They are always up to something." I said while I walked out of the room.
"You know for a fourteen year old you are really smart." Piers said following me out of the room.
I smirked a little, he didn't know I am actually seventeen. But then again, graduating high school early made you look like a baby with a graduation cap and gown. I think I would just play along until Chris mentions something.
I looked around the large mass of electric cables and metals. There was a small metal box that opened into a little computer. It had levels that went down to B20. Before I could push a button, the floor began to lower. Piers and I looked around nervously as we descended downward. We watched as many tubes of people and villagers were in tubes. Piers and I could only stare in horror.
"These people..." He began.
"They're the people they have kidnapped from the mainland." I guessed and began to read some of there thoughts. Most of the thoughts I began to see were people's innocence and beautiful dreams, some where nightmares and horrible memories from when they ended up in the tube. I frowned and found my guess to be very accurate. I bit my lip nervously.
"Captain, err. Anni." Piers said.
"What?"
The growl of the T-Abyss Tyrant filled out ears once again. It sent a chill up our spines. Nothing followed by the sound expect for my quick reaction.
"Quick this way!" I said.
The platform had finally stopped at a floor. Piers and I began to follow the pathway and went into a small elevator. Suddenly, our communicators went off.
"This is Barry Burton, director of the BSAA. Anni? Piers? Do you copy?" Barry's voice sent a large relief down our spines.
"Barry!" I smiled.
"Are you to alright? What's going on our there?"
"We are ok. The people here are satanic! We have also ran into why appears to be the T-Abyss virus. But it seems altered since we have last seen it." I said.
"They are acting very much like the Gando in Special Agent Kennedy's Report from the President." Piers said. "We have also found a leader of this island. His name is Jared Simmons. He and his followers have been using the T-Abyss to control the people here. We have some files we will send to you now."
I began to transfer the data from my PDA to Barry's laptop through email.
"Damn. Anything else?" Barry asked.
"Anni almost passed out on me, sir."
"Has she been acting strange?"
I stared blankly for a moment. What does he mean? Why was he so fond of me being okay or acting out of the ordinary?
"No, she's been fine. I've been making sure." Piers spoke glancing up at me for a second. I rolled my eyes. I was beginning to feel babysat.
As the conversation ended the elevator landed upon a floor. Piers and I pressed forward into the room. A couple more zombie-like Gando tried to attack us.
"Damn zombies!" I shouted angrily and fired my weapon at the zombies.
"Just relax. It can't get any worst than this." Piers yelled.
An alarm sounded and a large group of zombie-like Gando appeared. Magenta eyes began to stare us down.
"Thanks for the jinx, Piers." I spat. We were surrounded. The circle slowly closed up as zombies growled at us. Piers and I touched backs. I looked forward and waved my hands in front of me as suddenly fire appeared making part of the circle engulf into flames. The zombies began to charge Piers behind me. I quickly flipped Piers behind me to save his life and extended my arm forward as fire was the taste a zombie could only taste. The circle had disappeared.
"What was that?" Piers asked confused.
"I don't even know myself." I looked down at my palms. "We can't stay here. We need to keep going if we want to catch up to Jared Simmons."
"Ok." He spoke softly.
We ran forward into a large hallway with laboratories for experiments. We searched the first room on our left and found a document. It appeared to be a journal. I began to read what it said while Piers examined the room.
May 1st, 2005.
Jessica is going back to the mainland to see if she can get more people to recreate the virus. Business is booming. Jessica traveled with me from the Republic of Malta and then left to sell the virus to more people. After I gave the virus to Jared he demanded me to unleash the virus upon the shorelines of the Republic of Malta so that they could kidnap citizens to follow our love for satan.
More and more people have been resisting, we've had start attacking different places to avoid them catching on in other nations and countries. Hopefully we can succeed in our spread of Satanism. I'm going off to the Republic of Malta again and checking in go the Westin Hotel and releasing the virus there. My next stop after that is Edonia, we have a customer waiting there.
"So it looks like whoever wrote this was Jared's right hand. There's no doubt Jessica and this person are the distributors now. But these people, are they trying to start the crusades through the spread of Satanism?" I questioned.
"Don't know. I dont think Jessica is too involved in it, maybe she is just making profit. These people are as crazy as the Gando. We might as well call them T-Abyss zombies."
"And to think Las Plagas was freaky but this definitely takes the cake. They can make any type of creatures they want as long as they keep messing around with the virus." I breathed out. "C'mon. Let's check the next room."
Piers and I quickly left the room. We noticed movement in one if the rooms, Piers and I ducked so that we could not be seen. We snuck into the room and hid behind a desk. I took a peak to see what was going on here, it was Joshua Doolittle in the next room, he appeared to be on the phone.
"Yes, Jessica, I made sure Jared took a dose."
Jessica was still around. But where?
"When do I finally get to see your beautiful face?"
I frowned in disgust. Jessica was not that pretty at all. I have seen pictures of her from Parker and Chris' thoughts. If anything, any of these zombies I killed would pass as gorgeous compared to her. I shook my head and continued to listen to Joshua's and Jessica's conversation. I tried to listen for Jessica's voice but I couldn't read Joshua's mind. I grew frustrated and only listened.
"No Jared hasn't caught on yet. But, he did infect me."
"..."
"Send me a dose and I'll leave tomorrow. Has Raymond reported back to you yet?"
"..."
"Oh. I see."
"..."
"Right. See you soon, Jess." Joshua said.
Piers and I looked at each other and revealed ourselves from our hiding place.
"Joshua Doolittle! Stop right there!" Piers yelled. We both aimed our guns at him. I began to slowly move closer to Joshua. He held his hands up prepared to surrender.
"Wow. The BSAA. Agents, Mr. Nivans and Ms. Redfield. You're Chris Redfield's younger sister aren't you?" Joshua smiled. "You're brother would certainly be upset if something happened to you. Wouldn't he?"
"Wha-" Piers was suddenly smacked in the back of his head by a zombie-like Gando.
"Piers!" I cried out as I turned to help, but Joshua suddenly grabbed me and aimed a gun to my head.
"Don't worry. I'll be sure to tell your brother how you died." Joshua whispered in my ear and slammed his gun into my head causing me to pass out.
