Okay it's been a while since I last updated but I lost this chapter and have only just found it. Now this story is almost over but I already have a sequel planned. Hope you enjoy this chapter and trust me the action scenes look a lot better in my head than I can write them.

One cannot truly be a traitor,

If one is not caught

Alice leant back against one of the Umbrella desks, Kmart beside her sitting on top of the desk swinging her legs back and forth while Claire paced in front of them, she had left her guns behind in the infirmary and now she wish she hadn't. Alice moved her attention from Claire to Carter who had been tapping away at his computer for a good two hours now and she had to admit she was starting to lose her patience and with no weapons to take her attention of the incredibly frustrating waiting patience was definitely of virtue. The teen however was perfectly content and silent with the current happenings, Claire on the other hand. Alice turned back to face Claire who was still pacing. Well the redhead had lost her patience about half an hour into the whole thing. "You keep pacing Claire and you'll wear a hole in the ground."

Claire rolled her eyes at Alice before turning to Carter, hands on hips she stopped her pacing "Well genius is it done?"

"You know that question is as annoying as 'are we there yet?' or 'is dinner ready?'" He stood up ejecting the USB from his laptop before slamming the lid shut and moving over to an Umbrella computer, "But yes it's done just gotta upload it and start hacking away."

"Won't they be able to trace?" Kmart asked watching as both Claire and Alice froze turning to give Carter a curious look.

"They have to delete the virus first which will take a good fifteen minutes," Carter tapped away at the keyboard watching the screen as it posted how much of the virus had been uploaded, "I'm thinking of naming it the T-Virus." He watched the weird looks coming from the three females in the room and he rolled his eyes, "You know the thing that turned everyone into zombies."

"Yeah we got that but why?" Kmart asked.

"Cause it'd be irony…" he laughed as the last bits of the virus uploaded, "I'd love to see their faces."

Claire shook her head before speaking up, "How long does it take to log into the satellite and start tracking?"

"Depends."

Alice rolled her eyes when she realized that's all he was willing to give them, "Depends on what?"

"Well these Umbrella computers haven't been maintained for six years so there probably really slow so it could take anywhere from three to four." Carter shrugged bringing up the main data in the computer.

"Well that's good three to four minutes ain't bad," Kmart said nodding with everyone else.

"I meant three minute's to four hours," Carter turned to face them, "So keep your fingers crossed," He managed weakly at the death glare's he received from all three females.

"And how exactly does this all work?" Alice asked still not believing he could pull it off. She had seen some of the best computer tech's Umbrella had and she had to admit she had never seen someone take a computer apart and put it back together so fast yet alone trace a cell phone number in under two seconds.

"Well I start my hack into the Umbrella database and when Umbrella pick up on a computer branching from the Las Vegas facility they'll put their techs onto blocking me out." He nodded as he started his hack, "The moment they start their upload to lock me out the T-virus is automatically transferred to their computer main board infecting all their databases and demolishing the last lock out and all saved files that they have." He smiled proud of what he had done, "And during the time they take to get everything back online I'll be tracking and hopefully done."

"And you got fifteen minutes to track?" Claire asked hesitantly not really knowing if she wanted to know the answer.

"Maybe more, maybe less," Carter shrugged tapping away at the keyboard.

"Less?"

"Look it all depends on the number of computer's and how smart their tech's are." Carter waved his hands about expressing his point of view before returning them to the keyboard.

"Their techs are smart, like real smart." Alice pointed out.

"Give a guy a break would you," he held up his hands defensively with a huff.

"Can you also retrieve information while virusing them," it wasn't a real word but it was the best thing Alice could come up with in such a short time.

"You mean pulling files from Umbrella?" He asked curiously turning to face Alice before shaking his head, "Impossible." He quickly turned back to the Umbrella computer screen, the hack attempt successful. "Oh right and where operational," he smiled quickly entering the satellite network.

Alice glanced down at her wrist watch, she was a very patient person but this man and his current hacking was definitely getting on her nerves. It was currently eleven minutes since he had started the hack and she was near biting her nails in nervous anticipation, if he couldn't track the chopper what then? If he couldn't find Claire's convoy, what would the redhead do then? She could feel the onset of a headache spiking in the side of her head but she ignored the pain, even ignoring the slight trickle of blood that started forming at the base of her nose.

Carter shifted his hand to hit the enter button but it froze the moment the abandoned Umbrella Facility blared its alarms throughout the corridors and flashed its red lights. "Crap that ain't good," Carter exited his hacking attempts and brought up the interior map of the facility before locking the main corridor door that lead to the room they were in.

"What is it?" Claire asked calmly stepping up behind the young man to look at the computer screen over his shoulder.

"We've got company," Alice wiped her nose as she turned to face the metallic framed door behind her.

"How?" Kmart questioned looking over towards Carter, "Wouldn't you have been alerted."

"I should have been," Carter nodded pushing himself up to his feet, "Well looks like we should pack up and get the hell out of here."

Claire turned to watch Umbrella forces pile in through the facility on the other side of the four inch thick glass window. "Were gonna need bigger guns," Claire retorted.

"No argument here," Alice nodded before turning to face Carter.

"There's an armory on the next level and a Umbrella security lock down system on the floor above," Carter pointed out on the computer screen as it rotated to show the area he was speaking about.

"Me and Kmart can take the security system I'll have a better chance of being able to activate," Claire nodded towards Alice before giving Kmart's shoulder a nudge towards the door on the opposite side of the room that was not being bombarded by Umbrella forces.

"Looks like we've got the armory," Alice pointed out moving towards the door with Umbrella forces on the opposite side still trying to get it open.

"Wait," Carter held up his hands forcing Alice to turn to face him, "I say we get the hell out of this place forget about the armory there's an escape hatch, I say we grab the redhead and the teen and get the hell out of here."

"This could be a good chance to deal a serious blow to Umbrella," Alice commented turning to face the young man.

"It's not worth it," Carter shook his head, if Doctor Isaac's was in the facility and he was sure he was then he was sure that this wasn't going to be as simple as meet and greet.

"Not worth it? What aren't you telling us?" Alice questioned the young man, surprised at herself for using the word 'us' instead of 'me'. She squinted only briefly at the young man as the door behind her crashed to floor and soldiers piled in.

"We'll deal with it later," Carter didn't skip a beat, taking off his jacket in record time and throwing it towards Alice.

Alice caught the black jacket throwing it over the head of the first Umbrella soldier to enter before kicking the man in the ribs, grabbing the back of his vest she threw him behind her towards Carter as she yanked the soldier's gun from its holster and fired at the next Umbrella soldier.

Carter grabbed the first soldier, snapping his neck before pulling out the soldier's combat knife. He watched Alice shoot the next soldier before sideways kicking the third causing the soldier to stumble back into the others as she ducked.

Alice ducked just in time to hear the whirring of a knife over her head; she stood up just in time to see it impale the glass visor of the helmet leaving the soldier to keel over dead. She pulled another through the door pushing him towards Carter as two more filed in through the door. One thing she had to admit, they seemed to be working in a unanimous fashion – perfectly in sync with one another.

Carter slammed his fist into the chest of the Umbrella soldier he had been thrown as more soldiers entered leaving them with twelve soldiers in total in the room. A swing around and his fist collided with another soldier before another took a swing at him. He grabbed the arm before spinning turning his back to the soldier and flipping him over himself he grabbed the small metallic baton like weapon from its holster on the soldier's hip.

Alice was ducking from bullet fire as she slowly lowered the amount of soldiers in the room, a knife stab to the neck of a soldier leaving him to sputtering out blood all over the floor. She snapped another's neck with a kick to the underside jaw of the soldier.

Carter slammed the metallic baton into an Umbrella soldier, ducking quickly as an Umbrella bullet whizzed over his head shattering the soldier in front of him visor and impaling the soldiers head. He spun kicked the soldier who had shot the bullet behind him knocking the gun out of his hand before fist fighting the Umbrella soldier.

Alice dispelled another two soldiers as the fight continued raging on. She wasn't bothered not until she heard the loud whirring of a missile splicing through the air. She turned to face the soldier at the door missile launcher in hand while missile was already dispelled and sailing through the air. As if he had sensed it, the young man had already moved next to Alice as she focused her attention on the missile halting it mid flight only a meter or two away from them.

"If you got a plan now would be a good idea," Carter breathed out only slightly exhausted as he back kicked a soldier trying to grab Alice before focusing on the next soldier charging towards him.

Alice felt the young man shift to stand back to back with her as he dealt with every soldier in the room, her attention still focused on the missile in front of her. She couldn't hold it much longer as she felt her body slowly drain of energy, if she let it go it would explode upon impact.

"Alice," Carter spoke as he managed to knock out one soldier but more continued to surround him.

Alice dropped the missile, focusing her attention on containing the blast.

Carter ducked as did all the other occupants in the room apart from Alice. The flames of the explosion encircled him and Alice leaving them untouched while burning the rest of the room to a crisp. He never thought he'd admit it but the sheer force of Alice's abilities scared him, someone with that much power and no real idea of how they were going to use it other than revenge was a deadly mix he knew that from experience, this same experience.

The flames died and Alice crumpled down to one knee, her nose trickling with blood. "We grab those weapons and find Claire, and then we finish this."

Carter shook his head but grabbed Alice's arm pulling her to her feet, "Let's go then."

Alice and Carter walked through the corridors, quickly but quietly. She was letting him deal with any Umbrella soldiers they encountered as she was still regaining her energy from the feat she had pulled back in the computer room. She watched his reactions to each soldier, she watched as he made sure not to kill any only deal enough damage to knock them unconscious, it was familiar – incredibly familiar.

"Okay this is it," Carter tapped away at the door console until it hissed open.

"Umbrella didn't take any with them?" Alice questioned as she looked at the weapon stash.

"Nope I'm guessing Umbrella got the hell out of dodge quickly but for unknown reasons." Carter shrugged stepping into the armory with hesitation, "I still think we should just get the fuck out of here." He spoke as he made his way through the armory.

Alice squinted, he was way too eager to get out. She hadn't been able to read him very much but what she had picked up on she knew he was hiding something, "What are you hiding?"

"Nothing," he replied instantaneously, "Why you think somethin's wrong?"

"You're a little too eager to get out of here, what are you hiding?" Alice repeated the question once again taking a step up to the young man.

"Look Umbrella won't hesitate to shoot on sight that's why I want to get out of here, there's too many to fight." Carter shook his head, his body telling him to take a step back but at the same time refusing.

Alice's head started pounding once again as blood began to trickle from her nose once more, "Were not going anywhere." Alice snapped both of her hands to the man's over shirt before slamming him up against the wall behind him.

Carter knew where this was going he had seen it more than once, he knew he should have reacted before she had grabbed him but deep down he knew whatever she did wasn't conscious but that didn't stop the anger from boiling. "It was you," he spoke calmly, "You lead Umbrella here." He looked for any resignation to what he was saying in her eyes and when none came he continued, "You're going to be the death of Claire and Kmart." The hatred in his voice seeped through and he grounded his teeth more angry at himself for allowing it to slip.

"You have no right to speak of Claire and Kmart," her grip tightened tremendously as she lifted him a few centimeters of the ground. She couldn't tell why but the protective hatred instinct inside her boiled at the mention of Claire and Kmart she wouldn't hurt them, why would she?

Carter softened slightly as he saw the lost look in the woman's eyes, "Umbrella owns you Alice…they always will."

It was then that Alice saw the Umbrella sign flash in her own eyes in the reflection of his. She released the young man's over shirt collar only hearing the noise of feet impacting the ground and the solid breathing of someone trying to regain oxygen. He was right, she was dangerous, and she was a danger towards Claire and Kmart.

Alice shook her head violently, no she could control it she wouldn't let Umbrella control her. She turned to face the man still heaving on the floor. "Grab what weapons you can were ending this now," she turned towards the weapons racks. Was she a weapon to use against Umbrella? Or was she the Insider for Umbrella? Either way as she focused on what had happened and the weapon rack she was now shuffling through she never heard when Carter had said 'They always have'.

Oooh and the plot deepens. Hope you guys enjoyed.
