The Advent91: Welcome to Chapter 2-2 School of Evil and I hope you enjoy! Using the map of Raccoon City helped out here.
September 28, 1998 / Raccoon City, Fox Street / 10: 50 PM
If one could describe what they saw upon the streets of Raccoon and the cities condition itself it would be chaos. That's what Naruto thought as he was ducked behind a turned over vehicle hiding from the zombies that were slowly pacing on Fox Street. With these numbers Naruto was looking upon right now he would just be wasting bullets and the noise would attract zombies to his location. He wished he had some sort of silencer for this gun and with that thought in mind he began searching the pockets on the belt he was wearing. Opening one up he could not believe his luck because there a suppresser was and he mentally glees in joy thanking god. He pulls it out and began screwing the suppressor upon his pistol making sure it was secured tightly.
Naruto's plan was getting to the Raccoon City General Hospital and that was a long ways to go from here. He would have to bare it so that he could find his mother and once that was done they would both get the hell out of Raccoon City. However they magnitude of infestation upon these streets was great so he would have to cross through some buildings and it would be the wise thing to do. As a matter of fact Naruto saw Raccoon City High School up ahead and wondered if there were any survivors inside such as other students. Naruto remained as quiet as possible as he moved down the streets sidewalk in a low crouched position to the next vehicle as quickly as possible and made it in time ducked behind another vehicle as a zombie turned his direction. He sat against this vehicle for a few seconds waiting for the opportunity to move again but as he was waiting there was a dead cop lying on the sidewalk beside him, the dead cops' firearm empty with an empty clip lying next to it.
He looked upon the dead cop wondering if he was a zombie and was killed already or was recently bitten and was turning now and when he would rise. Naruto looked the cop over not seeing any bullet holes of any sort left behind in the cops body or head meaning he wasn't shot but there was a bite left behind on his neck. This cop could rise up at any moment as a zombie giving his position away so he had to move fast whenever an open window for him to move presented itself. However that moment was NOW as the zombie brings up its head, turns it toward Naruto's direction and then lunges at Naruto grabbing him. The zombie having a grasp upon Naruto's shoulders, Naruto's right foot up against the zombie's chest and his right arm under and against the zombie's neck holding the zombie's face away. The zombie only had its mouth wide open not making any loud hissing sound not attracting any zombie's, its foul breath in Naruto's face.
Naruto managed to bring up and point his Suppressed MK.23 into the side of the zombie's head pulling the trigger firing a silenced shot killing the zombie that now lay upon him. Naruto pushes the zombie off of him making it sit against the vehicle he was ducked behind and peeked over the vehicle. The zombie's on the streets didn't hear or were coming his way but he still needed to move however zombies were turned his direction. He could not stay here forever and began thinking and that's when he saw the empty clip. A light bulb goes off in his head having an idea so reaching for it he throws the empty gun clip over the car across the street hitting into the side of a building. The collision against the building making a loud sound echoing grabbing the attention of the zombies and they slowly walk toward that direction.
Naruto moves no longer in his crouched down position and was now moving down the street with his gun held within his grasp down to his lower left. As he was moving up Fox Street the path looked clear ahead but also it was quiet...too quiet. As he was moving down the street running beside and down past the high school grounds and passing Fission Street he suddenly comes to a stop in his tracks. Why did he come to a stop in his tracks? Well the reason was because up ahead walking slowly from around both corners of Ennerdale Street were hordes of walking dead all moaning aloud hungry for flesh. The numbers were too great for Naruto and he even heard moans coming from his right and looking upon the ground of the school he went to saw more zombies slowly walking his way but they looked to be high school students.
Upon all of the zombies up ahead taking sight of him and the zombies on the school grounds increase their walking speed.
"Oh boy!"
Naruto looked down Fission Street but as he did out of nowhere there was a group of zombies coming from that direction as well. Looking back down Fox Street over behind him the zombie's he avoided were now walking his way as well now. It looked as if he were surrounded but there was one place he can make a run for and it was the High School up ahead. He made a break for it sprinting down the street to turning into the school grounds making his way for the emergency exit back door of the school where a zombie was at. This zombie looked to be dressed as one of the teachers of the school being a female so Naruto while in his sprint heading toward the door aimed his MK.23 and fired off a single shot hitting it in its shoulder. Naruto took the opportunity of the opening for an attack and so he leaped up into the air wrapping his thighs upon the zombie's head and flipped backwards, the zombie flipping over and its head slamming into the ground cracking its head open from the impact.
Naruto then proceeded to the double emergency doors but noticed that there was a chain wrapped around the pipes that one would push forward and the doors open. The reason why this chain was here had to be because so as to keep out anyone that didn't go to this school but why was it on the outside and not the inside? Naruto pulls on the chain but it wasn't giving way and then he took notice of the horde of slow walking zombies coming around from the corner to his left as well as the zombies on the school grounds behind him and to his right. They were slowly approaching and Naruto had to get in and then he thought why not just use the gun and why didn't he think of that in the first place. He felt stupid but forgets about it quickly and pulls out his sidearm taking aim upon the chain, pulls the trigger but misses so he fires again and this time the chain breaks. He quickly puts the gun away and pulls the chain off as quickly as possible, the zombie horde behind him approaching arm's length.
When the chain is off he quickly pushes forward on one of the doors and then closes it behind him just before the hands of the zombies can reach inside, the door slammed in their faces and Naruto locking both of the doors. Naruto backed away hearing the doors on the other side outside be banged on and the moans of the zombie horde outside.
"That was a close scrap!"
Naruto turned around now looking down a dark hall within the school seeing no one in sight so it looked all clear. He started walking down the hall, each step echoing aloud.
"I wonder if anyone is even here."
As he was walking forward and reaching the end of the hall that exited out into a larger spaced room he heard the sound of footsteps making him stop in his tracks. He brought up his left hand taking a grasp for his holstered pistol waiting for the monster to reveal itself. His patience was rewarded, although one would consider this a reward, as a zombie walked from around the corner being what looked like another high school student but this time female. Naruto was going to take aim with his gun but then decided why waste bullets when he can just slice the zombie with his sword. So he took grasp of his sword behind his right shoulder with his right hands and reached his left hand down to his leg grasping a knife that was in a sheath. He draws the sword first with the name of the blade etched in on the side saying Raiden but it was within Kanji writing and then he pulls out his blade in a reverse grip within his left hand.
The zombie approached him and Naruto approached it and when they both reached striking distance the zombie swung its right hand intending to scrap him with its nails. Naruto however slashes up his reverse gripped knife slashing across the zombie's hand making the zombie's arm jerk to its right. Naruto takes advantage again and slashes his sword diagonally up to his left from his bottom right slashing through its legs, the zombie falling on its back to the floor still alive. The Namikaze then leaps up into the air slamming his right foot down upon the zombie's face crushing through its skull with his foot finishing the zombie off. Naruto steps away twirling his blade within his right hand back up and sheathing it and simply sheaths his knife as well.
"Thanks for the sword dad, really sharp if it cuts this good." Naruto said.
He got back on the move drawing his gun and as well as reaching for his knife again with his right hand this time. As he walks down the hall he brings his back against the wall to his right going down along with the palm of his right hand sliding along it, his left holding up his gun. When he reached the corner he could see into the large room where students walked in from the double glass doors up ahead seeing it clear and looked down the hall the hall that was down to the left being clear as well. No matter how clear this place looked he knew there were zombies in this school waiting to surprise him. He still needed to look around the corner he had his back against down the hall to his right. He aimed his gun forward while bringing his knife up above the weapon.
He takes in a breath and then pops around the corner with his gun aimed and blade at the ready held above it, no zombie in sight and so he lowered his guard. He would soon learn that he shouldn't as runs up to the double glass doors but when he was about to reach them two zombie's came walking toward the doors from the other side. All four of them slamming on the strong glass doors that were locked from the inside and when they did slam against the doors it made Naruto fall back catching him by surprise. As soon as he fell onto his back their above he standing was a zombie hissing down at him so Naruto thinking fast spun his body upon his back turning the zombie's direction swiping one of his legs under the monsters feet tripping it. As soon as the zombie was on the floor and Naruto still on his back on the floor turned in the fallen zombie's direction he saw three more zombie's ahead walking his way. Seriously where were those zombie's hiding?
Naruto aimed his gun down between his legs toward the zombie on the floor and fires upon the zombie that sits itself up. He fired four shots with two bullets piercing into the zombie's chest with the third going through the zombie's throat and finally the fourth being the kill shot to the head. One of the three zombie's that was fast approaching in its fast pace of walking lunges itself down toward him but Naruto counters swinging up his left foot kicking the zombie across the face falling to the floor. He roll backwards and upon his feet upon one knee taking aim with his gun and fire two shoots for another zombie's head, the first bullet grazing past its head and the second going into the head killing it. The other zombie that was still standing beside the one he kicked aside approaches and Naruto sights an axe on the floor ahead of him. He holsters his gun and leaps forward into a roll, while within it he picks up the axe and upon coming back up to his feet he swings the axe into the zombie's head cutting through its skull and its brain inside.
The zombie falls dead and Naruto turns around pulling his gun out once again taking aim and firing off the final shot of the pistol into the head of the zombie he kicked to the floor that sat itself back up. It was now all clear as Naruto holsters his gun while still having the axe within his right hands grasp. Even though he had a sword there was no harm in him taking the axe along with him? He looked back to the front double entry doors into the school seeing the zombie's blocking the way and saw more approaching slowly walking up the school's steps.
"Not going that way," Naruto said.
Perhaps he could find another exit out of the school without zombie's hording outside blocking the way. He proceeded down a hall but as he was he came to a stop hearing a cry of a female coming from up the stairs to his right.
"Someone is in trouble."
Naruto went up the stairs brining one foot up to the next with the axe within his grasp ready to swing it upon the first zombie that pops out of nowhere. As he went up the stairs arriving up to the second floor of the school he heard the voice of the female again that was crying coming from the next floor.
"Please stop!"
He was now heading up the stairs going up to the next floor and as he was he comes to a stop when he hears something smacking against what sounds like flesh along with a female yelp and then the sounds of retreating footsteps afterwards that were in a hurry. He then heard what sounded like a closing door afterwards. He proceeded up the steps and when finally reaching and arriving among the third floor he looked down the hall to his left seeing it clear and then he looked down to his right seeing the back of a walking zombie. The zombie looked to be the only one on this floor which he seriously doubted as it moans. He slowly walks up to the turned zombie and when getting close enough he swings the axe up and down upon the zombie's head making it fall to its knees, he then brining a foot on the dead zombie's back pushing it off the head of the bloody axe. He continues down the hall and soon came upon an opened class room door and goes inside it sighting no one in sight.
However he did find a body of a teenage girl that must have gone to this school and what he saw made him look away. What he saw was a dead girl, her eyes open and blood seeping out of the side of her head staining her blond hair. He looked back seeing something else being her pants and they were unbuckled with the button missing and it looked like her pants were pulled back up. He narrowed his eyes looking upon the wound on the side of her head and noticed how it didn't look like a bite but something like a blunt object strike to the side of her head. He searched the room for the blunt object with his eyes and sighted what looked to be trophy on the desk and it had blood on it.
Naruto backed away leaving the class room and continued down the hall and heard chatters and was getting close to the source of voices. He came upon a classroom door that said 315 and so he reaches for the knob grasping it with his left hand, axe in his right and slowly turns the door knob, the voices inside still talking. Naruto then pushes the door open brining up an axe entering the classroom giving out a growl and four students screaming upon his entry, two of them being girls and two boys that went to this school. One of the teenage boys feel back on the ground pushing some desks aside having been frightened upon his entry and Naruto seeing it was normal people, survivors and not zombies brought down the axe he wielded.
"You're not one of those things," A girl with long black hair said who was ducked behind the desk. She slowly rose from behind the desk looking upon Naruto. The other girl having brown hair rose up as well who was ducked behind the desk with her.
The two boys were actually football players with one of them being African American and guess who the other was that was on the floor…
"Flash…" Naruto said sighting the one that was still on the floor.
"Wait a second!" Flash said getting up and looking upon Naruto. He got closer to Naruto who brought his left hand grasping his holstered gun but Flash didn't notice "Naruto Namikaze?"
"You sound surprised," Naruto said.
"How do we know he's not one of those things?" The other football player asked.
"Do I look I want to eat you? And no I am not bitten."
"Good enough for me," The second football player said. "Man you're armed to the teeth." He said noticing Naruto's weapons as well as the sheathed sword. "Where did you get all of that?"
"It was my father's…He's dead."
"I'm so sorry," The girl with the black hair said.
"Close the door before that monster comes in!" The girl with the brown hair whispered to him "It's walking around in the hall!"
"It's dead, I killed it." Naruto said hefting up the axe.
"You killed it?" The girl with the brown hair asked.
"See for yourself if you want but it's not getting back up…Again." Naruto said seeing as it was not going to rise again from death twice. Naruto then tossed the axe toward the other football player and not Flash.
"Thanks," He said and brought forward a hand "Name's Thomas."
Naruto looked down to his hand brining his right hand up grabbing it and shakes it.
"Naruto."
"I'm Stella," The girl with the black hair introduced.
"Crystal," The girl with the black hair introduced.
As for Flash there was no need for introductions seeing as they knew one another.
"Naruto have you seen Ellen anywhere?" Stella asked.
"Who?"
"Ellen. She went to bathroom somewhere else on this floor not wanting to use the bathroom here in front of boys but she hasn't returned?"
"What does she look like?"
"Well she is pretty for one but she has blond hair…"
"Seen her,"
"You have! Where is she?" Crystal asked.
"She's dead." Naruto said without pause in sentence.
"Dead…" Thomas said. "I told you someone should have gone with her!"
"Those monsters must have got her." Flash said.
"Yeah…I guess so." Naruto said as he eyed Flash spotting what looked to be a sort of trophy sticking out from his jackets pocket.
"Jesus what the fuck are those things walking around out there?" Thomas asked as he walked up to the door closing it shut and locking it.
"Zombies," Naruto answered.
"What?" Flash asked.
"They are zombies."
"Zombies as in like horror movies?" Stella asked.
"No way!" Flash said.
"Well Flash they are walking dead corpses that want to eat you so what do you think?" Naruto asked.
"How is that even possible?" Crystal asked taking a seat in one of the desks.
"My father told me that this is all Umbrella's doing."
"Umbrella?" Thomas asked.
"Yeah. This is all caused by their T-Virus, a bioweapon by the sounds of it." Stella then took notice of the phone within Naruto's pocket and went for it grabbing it from him and immediately began dialing a number. "I've already tried that, it's useless."
She put the phone to her ear and only got a repeating beep.
"Shit!" She cursed as Naruto walked up to her taking his phone back gently. "Phone lines are down but this phone has satellite call capability."
"So then call for help that way!" Stella said.
"Tried that the first time at my house but it didn't work." Naruto said and then he switched the phone to be able to call by satellite "When I dial in a number through satellite I get this." He held up the phone and they heard what sounded sort of like static. "Signal is being blocked."
"So we're screwed?"
"Not if you do nothing about it." Naruto said "I'm leaving this city but not before I get to the hospital to get my mother."
"With all those things walking around out there?" Thomas asked.
"You're welcomed to come with me but stay out of my way. Or you all can just sit here, wait for those zombie's out there to break in and die. Your choice." Naruto said as he eyed the ticking clock in the room saying 11:10 PM.
"We have no weapons," Stella said.
"Then you're just going to have to find some."
"Where?" Crystal asked.
"What about the kitchen in the cafeteria?" Thomas asked "There got to be some knives we can use."
"Good thinking." Naruto said.
They all then heard the sound of distant gunfire coming from outside within the city…
Approaching from outside down Fox Street was Wolfpack and they were right now engaging multiple zombies that were coming at them from all sides, the team surrounded. Even though they were surrounded by all these zombies they were taking quite the number of them down seeing as this is what they were trained for. VECTOR quickly turns to his left smacking his rifle across the face of a zombie to bringing up his left foot and slamming it down upon its head killing it, he now on one knee taking aim with his rifle and continues firing upon the approaching zombies. BELTWAY grabs a zombie pulling out a grenade sticking it within the zombie's mouth and kicks it away into the group of approaching zombie's and an explosion occurs from the grenade, spilling limbs and guts of the zombie and those around it. LUPO with her knife in hand slashes her blade up into the side of the zombie's head and throws it down to the street to her right, the zombie dead. FOUR EYES slashed a zombie across its chest making it stagger back and then BERTHA came up next adding to the combo leaping up and performing a kick sending the zombie tumbling into the legs of zombie's tripping them over.
SPECTRE was on higher ground and that was atop a truck that looked to be the kind one would use to move. The U.S.S. operative upon one knee atop the truck aiming down the scope of his sniper rifle firing off single shots into the heads of zombie's with great accuracy and reloads time. He then reached for and grabs two grenades unpinning them and throws them into the horde of zombie's making sure that they didn't land anywhere near his team. The grenades blowing up taking down more great numbers of zombie's and soon there were only dozens left for Wolfpack to take down. VECTOR was slashing a zombie multiple times across its chest left and right and then its face while walking forward and making the zombie backing up. He finished the zombie off by delivering a kick up under the skull of the zombie with such power that it alone kills the zombie.
VECTOR then ducks under an arm swung from a zombie from behind and reached into a pouch with his right hand, his rifle hanging behind him, and pulls out three silver shuriken that were in between the knuckles of his right fisted hand. He turned around grabbing the zombie's chin having a grasp holding its mouth shut and then proceeded to punch his right fist into the zombie's gut drawing blood cutting the zombie open. He finishes the zombie off by delivering an uppercut with his right fist killing it, the three shuriken between the knuckles of his right hand stained with blood. He then turns throwing those three shuriken into the back of three heads of zombie's falling forward dead revealing FOUR EYES shoot down two more zombies with her rifle. Soon there was only one zombie remaining and the one that shoots it in the head with her side arm is BERTHA.
"All clear!" SPECTRE said aloud as he scanned the area with his special goggles "For now…"
"VECTOR?" LUPO addressed the professional in tracking and reconnaissance.
"I know," VECOTR said as he was on one knee with the butt of his rifle upon the street ground.
VECTOR was scanning the ground looking for any traces of SUBJECT 9 leaving behind a trail. He didn't find any signs on the street and so stood up walking toward and off the street to the sidewalk coming to a stop noticing a dead zombie behind a vehicle all alone. He also took notice that the zombie once a man that was a cop but what grabbed his attention was the single headshot in the side of the creatures head. VECTOR walked over crouching observing the scene…
"Found something?" LUPO asked with Wolfpack behind looking out for any approaching zombies.
VECTOR held out his hand hovering over an area against the vehicle and said…
"He was right here."
"You are sure?"
"He is smarter than we thought, knows how to survive. He was ducked down behind this car to stay out of the sight of the infected. This zombie was lying over here." He pointed to the area the dead cop was at once "The dead cop reanimated into a zombie and lunged forward grabbing him. Probably catching him by surprise, he resists and manages to unload a single shot…" He brings his hand down picking up a shell casing "into the zombie's head. This is from his weapon."
"You can tell by just looking at a shell casing knowing that it belongs to the weapon he has? I didn't know that." LUPO said "Like how no one knows your identity."
"He went that way." VECTOR said pointing down north of Fox Street.
"There is quite the number of infected gathered around the school up ahead." SPECTRE said zooming in on the school with his goggles zoom capability, the vision he had on showing the color of the infected in Biothermal Vision. "Obvious sign survivors are inside."
"Possibly SUBJECT 9." VECTOR said.
"Or a bunch of kids taking shelter from the infection." SPECTRE said.
"Let's get a move on." LUPO said leading the team toward the high school. The suddenly came to a stop as they took notice that the lights started to go back on for the lamp posts followed by lights turning on within some buildings around them. Even the school lights inside of the building were turning back on as well as they can see some classroom windows lighting up as well as some of the skyscraper buildings. Power to all of Raccoon City returned?
"What in the name of? Who the hell turned the power back on?!" U.S.S. Command over communications demanded.
"No idea command, we just entered the city and are closing in on SUBJECT 9, we tracked him to the high school." LUPO informed.
"Roger that Delta Team continue on your mission. Alpha Team Zulu 6?"
"This is U.S.S. Alpha Zulu Team Leader." Alpha Zulu Team Leader replied over communications.
"The power has returned to Raccoon City WHAT HAPPENED?!" U.S.S. Command demanded.
"May have been a backup generator enough for the city somewhere sir?"
"FIND IT AND SHUT IT DOWN! No mistakes!"
"Roger that Command, out."
"Wolfpack get a move on if you want to be extracted."
"Roger that Command."
Meanwhile Naruto, Stella, Crystal and Flash in the school look to the ceiling seeing the power coming back on.
"The power's back!" Crystal said.
"Maybe we can make a call now!" Flash said and immediately snags the phone from Naruto.
"Manners much?" Naruto asked.
Unbeknownst to them Umbrella was already working on blocking any calls that can be made from within the city. If power was back on then that means the cell towers work again and calls could be made but right now Umbrella was putting a stop to that. They couldn't afford to have any survivors telling the outside world what they knew that could possibly damage the corporation or tell what they saw such as the B.O.W.'s within the city being tested. Umbrella would have to keep calls blocked manually themselves until the power was knocked out…again. Flash dialed in a number and the phone rang but then it was cut off thanks to Umbrella.
"What the hell?" Flash said bringing the phone away from his ear seeing it say on the screen NO SIGNAL "What the fuck man it was working?!"
"Umbrella…" Naruto said.
"What are you saying Umbrella is preventing us from making calls to the outside?" Thomas asked.
"This can't be right I won't believe it." Crystal said "Umbrella couldn't have been behind all of this, it's ridiculous. They make medicines, foods, the help the world. Why would Umbrella prevent anyone from within the city from calling help?"
"What do you think they are going to let you call for help and tell anyone what was happening in here?" Naruto asked "Umbrella is NOT what makes itself out to be. It may look pretty, innocent, noble and right on the outside but on the inside is where its true ugliness is revealed. Communications are down cutting any survivors from the outside, zombies walk the streets because of their virus-,"
"They will send rescue!" Crystal said aloud. "You heard those gunshots that may be it."
"There is NO RESCUE COMING! There is no U.N. force coming in here to save you or U.S. Army. You want to know the only force that is within this city? Umbrella! Why just them?" Naruto said and asked all of them. "This is all Umbrella's doing. I guarantee you that so called rescue isn't what you hope for it to be but the opposite." He turned making his way to the door "I'm leaving. You can stay and die or follow and survive longer."
Naruto grabs the door knob turning it opening the door making his leave walking around the corner leaving the door open. Thomas, Stella, Crystal and Flash don't move but look at one another.
"I don't know about you but I'm going." Thomas said.
"With those things out there?" Crystal asked.
"Better than staying here and waiting to get eaten." Thomas pointed out and ran out the door following after Naruto with Flash following afterwards and then Stella and Crystal. "Wait!" Thomas called out to Naruto entering the hall making Naruto further ahead stop turning their direction. "We'll come with you."
"Then move it." Naruto said.
Wolfpack was lighting up the zombie's that were gathered up in the back of the school, Wolfpack slowly proceeding toward the doors SUBJECT 9 went through getting into the school. When they finally reached the double door VECTOR immediately took notice of the chain shot off and the shells left behind by bullets of Naruto's MK.23. They cleared the area around them with only a small amount of zombies left walking toward them.
"BERTHA, FOUR EYES, and SPECTRE you three go in through the front of the school. We will enter from the back. We'll trap him like a rat, capture him and call for extraction from the roof of the building." LUPO commanded and the three did as told making their way for the front of the school on the other side "He's not going to get away."
"Doors are locked from the inside." VECTOR said.
"BELTWAY blow it."
"On it LUPO," BELTWAY said taking a knee placing a bomb between the center of both closed door and punching the center of the device with a fist making it beep "Hehehe! Boom."
LUPO, VECTOR, and BELTWAY back away and five seconds later along with a speed up of beeps from BELTWAY's bomb blows the doors off their hinges. At the same time in the front of the school BERTHA, FOUR EYES and SPECTRE fire bullets into the glass front double locked doors and then breaking through the glass now in the school. This all did not go unheard by Naruto and the traveling group of high school survivors who stop upon the second floor within the stairs as they head the loud explosion as the gunfire and breaking glass.
"Back up! Back up!" Naruto whispered.
Wolfpack on the first floor searches the first floor but it went a lot faster with SPECTRE using the Sonar Vision capability that allowed him to see through walls with through goggles his goggles with emitted sonar. He moved down the halls quickly as possible looking to his left and right seeing through the walls and into other classrooms.
"It's all clear down here."
"Move up!" LUPO commanded.
"Incoming!" BERTHA said aiming her rifle at the front broken open glass doors of the school seeing Crimson Heads running in and toward them.
Wolfpack staying together fires as one lighting the Crimson Heads up as their bullets pierce into the bodies of the zombies. Zombies revealed themselves around the corner from the hall VECTOR, LUPO and BELTWAY entered from, none of them Crimson Heads but they were fast walking toward Wolfpack that began to separate fighting the invading zombies. If you were thinking that breaking through the doors the way they did you were wrong. LUPO knew their entry into the school would not fall on deaf ears especially being the zombies. This was part of the plan LUPO planned out seeing as zombies will now flood into the school and Wolfpack was within it, SUBJECT 9 had nowhere to go, trapped. After finishing off the intruding zombie's on this floor LUPO ordered Wolfpack to move up to the next floor, zombie's outside the school approaching at a slow pace.
Naruto, Stella, Crystal, Thomas and Flash meanwhile were now upon the fourth level of the school.
"Well what now hero?" Flash asked.
"Who said I was a hero?" Naruto said.
"What do we do?" Stella asked.
"There has to be a way we can reach the first floor from here." Naruto said and then came upon a manager's closet and kicked it open. Inside Naruto saw metal bat, crowbar and a hammer. "Found the rest of you weapons." He said holstering his gun, walks inside grabbing the items and tosses the bat to Flash, the hammer to Crystal and the crowbar to Stella, Thomas had the axe. "Now let's get out of here."
Wolfpack was on the second floor of the school with SPECTRE scanning through the walls but he couldn't keep this vision up for long, it had a limit and once it was reached would have to be recharged.
"This floor is clear move up." SPECTRE advised.
"Command we are closing in on the target, we got him trapped within the school." LUPO advised U.S.S. Command over communications with the rest of her pack following her close behind.
Back with Naruto and the group the round the corner of a hall and ahead of them was four slow walking zombies coming toward them.
"Shoot them!" Flash told Naruto.
"Be a waste of ammo." Naruto said.
"Waste of ammo?" Stella asked.
"See how slow they are?" Naruto asked "Their so slow that you can just merely walk past them. Try aiming for the head, that's how you can permanently put them down. Give and try and hurry."
Thomas quickly walked up to one of the zombies and swung the axe into the side of the zombie's head killing it. Flash ran up and swung the bat into the head of a zombie knocking it to the floor and swung his bat repeatedly on its head killing it. Crystal ran up scared and swinging her hammer into the head of the zombie knocking it down to the ground but it was still alive so she swung her hammer down again into its head repeatedly until it was not moving anymore. Stella with the crowbar ran up swinging the curved end of the crowbar into the fourth zombie's neck, the crowbar stuck and so she pulls ripping skin and spraying blood out to swinging it into the head of the zombie again this time killing it. The four zombie's now dead with each having been killed by Thomas, Stella, Flash and Crystal.
"Now you know how to kill a zombie lets go." Naruto said quickly as they continued to search for a way off this floor that would lead them to the bottom.
"There is no way to go but up or down!" Thomas said.
"Shit!" Naruto cursed as he was standing next to stairs that would head up to the fifth level of the school.
That's when Naruto and the other finally saw them down the hall ahead for the first time having come up the stairs on the other side of this floor. It was U.S.S. Delta Team also known as Wolfpack all standing ahead of Naruto, Stella, Thomas, Flash and Crystal. It seemed as if time itself slowed down as Naruto saw them for what they were working for Umbrella, his eyes narrowed upon them in anger.
"SUBJECT 9 FREEZE!" LUPO yelled aiming her weapon along with the rest of Wolfpack.
Their response was Naruto aiming his gun pulling the trigger firing its bullets, Wolfpack ducking down as the bullets going over their heads into the wall behind them.
"MOVE!" Naruto demanded pointing up the stairs and the others did as told.
Naruto unloaded the empty clip within his gun letting it hit the floor with Wolfpack taking opportunity seeing SUBJECT 9 reloading. LUPO saw Naruto aim his gun toward them again making them stop and take aim toward SUBJECT 9 with their weapons. Wolfpack had no intentions of killing Naruto as Umbrella wanted him alive for the Prototype T-Virus within him, the corporation wanting to study him.
"Don't try anything stupid 9!" LUPO said to Naruto allowed "Six to one, the odds in our favor, it's over."
Naruto then eyed what looked to a red fire hydrant lying on its side against the wall on the floor. Naruto looks back upon Wolfpack giving them a smile and asked.
"Is it?" He then aimed his gun toward the fire hydrant with LUPO taking notice "Eat this!" Naruto pulled the trigger firing a single bullet hitting the fire hydrant making it explode knocking Wolfpack off their feet. Naruto smiled again before he ran up the stairs intending to catch up with the others.
"Kid's pretty smart." BELTWAY complimented as he and the rest of the pack pick themselves to immediately giving chase.
"After him!"
While Naruto was running up the stairs he saw the other on the fifth level waiting for him but he ushers them to keep moving up and they did as told heading up not sixth level or the seventh but the eighth. When Wolfpack arrive stopping on the sixth floor aiming their weapons down the halls to their left and right they took notice of a zombie or two present walking very slowly. In fact zombies from below on the first level of the building were now arriving on the second. But back with Wolfpack who were currently stopped on the fifth.
"Where is he?" BELTWAY asked.
"Is he on this floor or the next?" VECTOR asked.
"SPECTRE use your Sonar Vision?" FOUR EYES asked.
"It's still not ready for use, about two more minutes. Also the vision has a limited range." SPECTRE replied.
"So what's the plan?" BERTHA asked.
"Here is what we are going to do." LUPO said grabbing their attention "Except for VECTOR the rest of you switch to your sidearm and attach your silencers." Wolfpack did as told ringing their rifles and BELTWAY his shotgun now armed with their now suppressed side arms. "BELTWAY and SPECTRE you two are with me on this floor. VECTOR, FOUR EYES, BERTHA, you take the next above. If you sight him immobilize him, don't kill him. Now move."
VECTOR, FOUR EYES, and BERTHA went up to the next level being the seventh. When they arrived on that level FOUR EYES goes left and BERTHA goes right. VECTOR however does not follow as he looks back to the stairs leading up to the eighth and final level of the school. He activated his camouflage turning himself invisible. Naruto was in a classroom closing it quietly as possible behind him, Thomas, Stella, Crystal and Thomas in the room with him.
"Who the fuck are they?" Flash asked too loud.
"Quiet down." Naruto said. "They are obviously Umbrella."
"Who the hell is SUBJECT 9?"
Naruto replayed that moment in his head.
"SUBJECT 9 FREEZE!"
"She was referring to me?" Naruto thought.
"My name isn't SUBJECT 9?" Flash said and looked to the others "You?" He looked back at Naruto who had his back against the door looking their direction. "They were referring to you." Flash said pointing at Naruto "They had their guns aimed on you as well. Why did they call you SUBJECT 9?"
"I don't know…?" Naruto said confused wondering why they called him SUBJECT 9. "We have to get out of here."
Naruto walked past them and to the window parting it open and looked down below to the school ground and to the parking lot.
"Can anyone hotwire?" Naruto asked.
"I can," Stella revealed.
"It's a good idea taking a car and I don't mean to poke holes but we are on the top floor." Thomas said.
Naruto whose head was poked out the window had looked to his left seeing a pipe (one of those pipes that drains water from above to ground level when it rains) and trailed it down all the way down to ground level. I think you know what he is thinking.
"We're climbing down." Naruto said.
"What?" Crystal asked.
"There is a pipe out here we can use it to climb down SILENTLY past Umbrella and the zombies unnoticed, go for a vehicle, Stella hotwires it and we take off to the hospital."
Thomas took a deep breath seeing as they were going to climb down eight stories of the school, one slip and you would not survive the fall.
"Sounds good enough to me." Thomas said.
"You two are crazy!" Crystal said and then looked to Naruto "YOU are crazy!"
"Then perhaps you would like to take your chances getting past those people." Naruto said making a point and as he was looking down he saw zombie's walking inside the school "Plus zombies are coming up."
"We got no choice." Thomas said to the others "I'll go first." He looked to Naruto giving him a nod who returned it.
Naruto steps aside letting Thomas go first putting his foot on the window seal and reached out for the pipe successfully grabbing it and so he was now upon the pipe having a good grasp. Thomas began climbing down.
"Your next," Naruto said to Crystal.
"I can't!"
"Yes you can. You have too. You can do it." Naruto said encouraging her. "Go!"
She did as told going atop the window seal and looked down feeling like she was going to cry already.
"Crystal?" Thomas who stopped his climbing whispered up to her "You can do it."
She gave him a nod and reached out for the pipe, she managed just like Thomas being brave and began climbing down staying as quiet as possible. Naruto turned to Stella who walks right past him already knowing what to do; she performs the same action as Thomas and Crystal beginning to climb down.
"See you guys below." She said as she was climbing down.
"Me next," Flash said. Naruto however blocks his path with anger in his eyes stopping Flash in his tracks. "What?"
"Why did you do it?" Naruto suddenly asked.
"….W-what are you talking about?"
"You know what I am talking about. It's very odd that you would have one of your football trophies in your coat pocket, Flash. Looks like you are trying to hide it? Why not use that as a weapon from the very beginning?" Naruto asked.
"This is a waste of time Nar-,"
"You know I saw you as many things Flash. Bully who likes to pick on those smaller than him, a complete asshole…But never did I think you of being a RAPIST!"
"Excuse me?"
"Take the trophy out your pocket Flash?" Naruto asked "Show it to me?"
"I don't have to show you noth-,"
Naruto brought up aiming his HK MK.23 at Flash who backed up toward the door.
"I the one with the gun." Naruto pointed out. "Show. It. To me."
Flash did as told reaching slowly for the trophy in his coat's pocket. He didn't pull it out but Naruto motioned his gun to his hand to pull it out. Flash narrowed his eyes pulling out the trophy and on the bottom of it was STAINED BLOOD.
"You raped Ellen." Flash was silent "When I entered this school searching for possible survivors I heard the cries of a girl. At first I dismissed it as one of those monsters but now I regret not moving fast enough. Ellen needed to go to the bathroom but wanted some privacy. You took advantage of the situation, you left the room, and you followed her, found and raped her as she cried begging you to stop. When you were finished you knew that she would talk, you didn't want that happening so you silenced her. You tried to cover it all up thinking that if you blamed her death on the zombies when her body was discovered because eventually one of you would have gone looking for her. If you wanted to cover it all up then perhaps you should have been gentler when you ripped the front of her pants open, the button missing. It was a big give away."
"….Come on man! Don't you see what is going on around us? I wanted to lose my…you know. I could have been killed the next day or moment and I-,"
"What's happening here in Raccoon DOESN'T give you excuse committing rape and kill her afterwards all because you wanted to lose your virginity? What about your girlfriend? What she didn't want to go all the way with you?"
Flash suddenly throws his trophy breaking through a window since Naruto ducked under it. The trophy falling to the ground and the noise didn't go unnoticed by the other climbing down. Flash swings the bat he had in hand but Naruto brought up his right hand catching the bat within his hands grasp to kicking up his left foot up into Flash's leg. Flash falters back from the kick losing grip of the bat, Naruto tossing it aside as Flash brings up his hand touching the flowing blood from his nose and looks back to the Namikaze.
"You dead Namikaze!" Flash then charged him intending to tackle him.
Naruto counters grabbing Flash's shoulders and do you know what happened next. Naruto throws Flash OUT THE WINDOW who was shocked and silent with wide eyes in his fall. His falling form didn't go unnoticed by Stella, Crystal and Thomas. Thomas watched as Flash hits the ground below dead with blood around his body, his eyes wide open and Thomas mouthing oh shit. Naruto in the meantime looked out the window and to below looking to Flash's body below. All this chaos that happened within Raccoon City with the death of civilians, crimes committed on the streets during the week of infection and now rape. He holsters his gun and was going to make his way out the window next when he heard what sounded like a chink right behind him.
"Don't take another step." A voice said behind him and revealing himself out of his camouflage was none other than VECTOR who has his suppressed rifle aimed into the back of the head of Naruto. "Hands in the air!"
"Who are you?" Naruto asked.
"I am no one. Now turn around." VECTOR demanded and Naruto did as told facing VECTOR "I got admit…Naruto…" Naruto took note that VECTOR called him by his real name and not as SUBJECT 9 "Never did we expect you to come this far. It's impressive."
Naruto saw the patch upon VECTOR's left shoulder saying U.S.S. and the Umbrella symbol with it "So I was right, you guys work for Umbrella. Now that you're here I ask why…"
"Why what?"
"Why did you people release the T-Virus upon the city?"
"And you surprise me again, you know of the Tyrant Virus."
"Why?"
"You assume that Umbrella did this to the city willingly? You have no idea how wrong you are…Naruto. The T-Virus was never meant to be released upon Raccoon City; this was all just a freak accident that we tried to contain but failed. This wouldn't have happened if Doctor William Birkin would have just handed over his work willingly this may have never happened. It's his fault that the T-Virus spread throughout the city through infected rats going through the sewers." VECTOR revealed knowing how it spread thanks to Umbrella's intelligence.
"That must mean that rat came from the sewers out the toilet?" Naruto thought and was also surprised that VECTOR here was telling him so much. "Far as I see it it's the company you work for fault. This Birkin was obviously with Umbrella and so since he works for Umbrella this is all Umbrellas' fault."
"Believe what you want."
"SUBJECT 9?" Naruto asked "What's that all about?"
"You really don't remember anything do you?"
"Remember what?"
Naruto and VECTOR continued to stare at one another, Naruto down the barrel of VECTOR's Suppressed SMG that was in his face and VECTOR down the sight and barrel of his weapon into the subject's. Why was it taking VECTOR so long to report to Delta Team Leader of him having Naruto?
"LUPO top floor I got him!" VECTOR said quickly over communications.
Naruto smacked VECTOR's gun away with his hands making the man fire off some bullets, the Suppressed SMG landing and sliding across the floor hitting the wall. Naruto and VECTOR however entered into a hand to hand combat with Naruto kicking up his right leg meant for VECTOR's face but the U.S.S. operative quickly caught and grasped the foot with both his hands. Naruto took advantage and kicks up his left leg twirling his body, VECTOR still having a grasp of his right, to kick VECTOR but the U.S.S. operative releases backing away from the kick as Naruto lands on his feet. Upon him immediately landing on his feet VECTOR swiped one of his legs low tripping Naruto off his feet who lands on his back on the floor. Naruto immediately rolls away as VECTOR was stomping down his right foot that only stomps on floor and not face. Naruto was now back up on his feet with his fists up in a stance and VECTOR was doing the same.
Naruto throws the first punch pushing it aside with his hand and counters throwing a right. Naruto blocks with his left forearm with him throwing his own right but VECTOR caught and throws Naruto through the air landing atop a desk breaking through it. VECTOR walked toward Naruto pushing a desk out of the way with his foot that was in his way. Naruto as he stood back up reaches for his gun pulling it out pointing toward VECTOR who grabs the attached silencer of Naruto's gun swinging a fist to witch Naruto leans back avoiding. At the same time Naruto evaded VECTOR's backhand he unscrewed the HK MK.23 a little and then spun it around releasing his gun from the suppressor. Naruto backing away taking aim with his gun but VECTOR being faster performs a kick disarming Naruto of his weapon and then kicks Naruto falling into a desk.
"Not bad form Naruto," VECTOR said walking up to Naruto who was now back on his feet "But if you think you can win against me in hand to hand combat you are greatly mistaking."
Naruto charged toward VECTOR who manages to counter grabbing Naruto and putting him in a head lock. This move was taught to him by HUNK which VECTOR was well known for being the only one able to break out of HUNK's head lock. It didn't seem that Naruto was going to succeed as this man's head lock was incredibly strong.
"Give it up Naruto!" VECTOR taunted.
"Fuck you." Naruto said.
Then all of sudden catching VECTOR by surprise Naruto managed to lift VECTOR in the air and he runs toward the wall slamming VECTOR into it who grunted in pain. Naruto slams VECTOR against the wall a second time and then a third, it was the third slam that made VECTOR lose grip and Naruto took advantage grabbing HUNK and throwing him over the desk where a teacher sat. Where did all that sudden strength come from? He would ponder these questions later as he immediately ran for the window while picking up his gun on the floor putting it away, VECTOR picking himself up to quickly grabbing his Suppressed SMG. Naruto when reaching the window JUMPS OUT and was now falling down but manages to catch the pipe the others were climbing down who reached ground level just now. Naruto looked to be upon sixth level of the building.
"NARUTO!" Thomas called up to.
"Get to a vehicle!" Naruto yelled to them as he began climbing down.
Meanwhile with VECTOR he gave chase after Naruto running toward the open window with LUPO kicking open the door in time to see VECTOR jump out the window and falling down catching the pipe. VECTOR immediately began climbing down as quickly as he could having caught the pipe upon the fifth level of the school, Naruto nearing ground level. LUPO looks out the window seeing VECTOR climbing down chasing SUBJECT 9 as well as sighting the three high school student opening a vehicle that began hotwiring it.
"Target is heading to ground level outside the back of the school! Move it everyone!" LUPO said over communications to Wolfpack.
Naruto was now running toward the car that Stella, Crystal and Thomas were within and just finished hotwiring, the vehicle on. VECTOR was giving chase sighting Naruto jump through the window into the back of the vehicle who took aim at VECTOR with his gun. VECTOR immediately activated his camouflage going invisible shocking Naruto that VECTOR was capable of such a thing.
"GO!" Naruto yelled to Stella and she did as told.
The vehicle speeds through the parking lot and they are suddenly under fire from VECTOR's Suppressed SMG who was kneeled atop a vehicle. Every shot he was making disrupting his camouflage, he tried to get a hit off on their tires but he was unsuccessful. He watched as the vehicle exits out of the parking lot turning left onto Endderdale Street in which lead to the police station. When they drove past the front of the school SPECTRE took aim with his sniper rifle but LUPO stops him telling him to hold his fire as they want him alive and not dead. They couldn't risk SPECTRE taking out the driver or a tire that would make them lose control and crash, they didn't want to risk the life of SUBJECT 9. As the group was speeding down Endderdale Street Thomas cheered with Stella taking in deep breaths, Crystal on the verge of tears who was in the back with Naruto but was happy she was still alive.
"We made it!" Thomas said.
"Out of the school but not the city." Naruto reminded as he looked upon the time displayed in the vehicle saying 11:22 PM.
"What happened to Flash?" Crystal asked Naruto.
"…He fell." Naruto lied "Now let's get to the hospital."
Thomas looked forward again and saw a big tall standing creature walk into the middle of the street. They did not know it but it was none other than one of Umbrella's B.O.W.'s being a T-103!
"LOOK OUT!" Thomas yelled.
Stella took notice turning her head where it was supposed to be and hits the breaks. The car making a skidding sound along the trash covered road but it didn't look like they were not going to stop before reaching the T-103. The T-103 brings its fists together and what it does next as swings them both to its left smacking the vehicle making it spin through the air horizontally. In a slow motion moment the individuals in the vehicle can hear the sound of the glass as well as some grazing their faces, Stella having a tight grip on the wheel with Thomas having her seatbelt on but Naruto and Crystal in the back didn't. The vehicle flips over the surrounding gates of the Raccoon City Police Station landing within its parking lot atop two police vehicles.
The Advent91: How do you like that for a cliffhanger huh? Chapter 2-3 coming soon. Now if some are wondering why this chapter was called School of EVIL is because of the evil deeds Flash committed being rape and murder. Let's also note for fun that Naruto didn't kill Flash but the fall did. LOL!
