Chapter 11: Recovered

09:00 AM, 10th May 1995

The following day, once everybody was awake, they sifted through their supplies, scraping together a meagre breakfast. After eating J readied his weapons and, with Seth, Tim, Anita and Victoria, they headed to the door on the other side of the main hall, the only place they hadn't explored yet. They opened the door and headed through into the small office like room, it was deserted.

"Don't see anything here," Seth muttered, but Tim then spotted something, "Hey, guys, look, right there."

They walked over to the desk where he was pointing and saw it was a report written by one of the officers, Tim picked it up and began to read it out loud to the others.

"It's been two days," He read, "Two days since the attack began, but still the Chief refuses to believe us, he claims we're not doing our job, threatening to fire us if we don't get back to work. He's even taken all our ammo caches and scattered them throughout the police station, making it impossible to set up a strong defense. We have been attacked by those zombies but we've barricaded the windows and locked the doors in our efforts to hold them back. We have spotted a new monster too, going by its preferred method of attack we have named it 'Licker', we still hold onto hope that, despite the Chief's inaction we…"

Tim stopped and stared at the bloody handprint that ran down the edge of the page.

"He must've been attacked while writing it," He concluded.

While the others pondered this information J wracked his memories, his newly recovered ones and the ones that were still murky, he finally found what he was looking for.

"I know why the chief didn't do anything," He said suddenly, the others turned to him, "He knew what was really going on, he was on Umbrella's payroll, they bribed him."

The others stared shocked and Victoria then asked, "Are you sure?"

J nodded, "He was one of the people whose name was on a list of people Umbrella had bought, one of the ones I was gonna expose."

Seth nodded, "Do you still have that information, we could use it along with the file we've got?" He asked but J shook his head, "My office was trashed, that includes my computer, I hadn't been able to transfer the information in anyway before I was attacked."

The others sighed and then the group decided to move on. With their weapons ready they walked to the next door, opened it and walked into the corridor.

"What in the hell?" Seth gasped; Anita covered her nose and mouth, willing herself not to throw up.

Tim and Victoria were in shock, yet J was as stoic as ever, surprising given the surroundings. The corridor was covered in blood and dismembered body parts, including those of several police officers. J took the lead and the others reluctantly followed him, they progressed slowly until they reached the bend in the corridor and followed it, it was then that they noticed something else.

There was a pool of blood in the centre of the corridor, with blood dripping into it from the ceiling. They looked up and froze as they saw the Licker there clinging to the ceiling, J glared.

'So it was a Licker that killed Holly,' He thought angrily, his sharp ears picked up the sound of clicking. "Guys, there's another one behind us," He warned.

Tim shook his head, "We can't take these guys in here, in such a confined space we'll be sitting ducks."

The rest nodded in agreement and took their chances and ran.

They burst through the door and slammed it shut behind them; they turned and saw a staircase. Before they could go up it however one of the Lickers leapt through the ventilation shaft above the door and landed at the foot of the stairs. The second clawed its way through the door, trapping them. Anita then spotted a storeroom off to their right.

"Guys, in there," She cried out desperately.

They hurried over and made it inside, closing and barricading the steel door. The Lickers attacked it again and again but the door wouldn't give, however they were now trapped in the room.

Meanwhile, back in the main hall, Harry was sitting on the floor next to the desk; Myles sat next to him, trying to take his mind off his injury. Katrina and Dylan were sitting in a different part of the room with Sappira. Katrina was shivering.

"Man, wish I had a chance to put more clothes on, this is ridiculous." She whined, Dylan smiled, "I could warm you up if you want." He offered.

Katrina laughed and shook her head, "No offence Dylan, but I think you're probably as cold as me."

They both laughed and then turned to face Sappira; she braced herself for what she knew was going to be an onslaught of questions.

"Sappira, seriously, I've gotta ask," Katrina began, "I get the whole Marcus abusing you and now he's dead thing but...Tim?"

Sappira nodded smiling, "Yeah, why are you surprised."

Katrina shifted uncomfortably, "Well, it's just, he's kinda..."

Sappira shook her head, "Look, he likes anime and things like that, I know, but that doesn't matter, he's actually pretty cool and smart too."

Katrina and Dylan looked at each other and smiled, shrugged and turned back to Sappira.

"Alright, thanks, we get it, we understand now. We were just confused as to what attracted you to him."

Sappira nodded, smiling.

Still trapped in the storeroom Seth kept his shotgun trained on the door where the Lickers were still trying to break in. Anita was staying as far away from the door as possible, Tim and Victoria stood on one side of the table in the middle of the room, J was sitting on the other side of the table. The Lickers slammed into the door again.

"Well, so far so good," Seth commented, "They're not braking through."

"Yet," Anita snapped, "There's no way we can stay here, besides, they'll get through eventually."

"You're always so negative," Victoria commented, Anita glared at her and soon a full blown argument began.

The argument had scarcely lasted a few minutes when J suddenly spoke up.

"Shut up, all of you just shut up, stop talking!" He yelled, "I'm trying to think, if I think hard enough, maybe, I'll get some more of my memory back. Maybe I'll remember how to kill those things, or something like that."

With that the group went quiet as J closed his eyes and began to think as hard as he could. He ignored the pounding headache and focused on sifting through the fragmented memories.

Finally, after a long pause J opened his eyes.

"I...I've remembered some things, but, I still don't remember their weaknesses."

Anita rolled her eyes and sighed, "Okay, what do you remember?"

"Well, there's a chance to save Harry, there is an anti-virus, we just need to get our hands on it."

Anita breathed a sigh of relief, finally Victoria asked.

"What's the other thing you remembered?"

J sighed and then answered, "My name, I've finally remembered my name."

They all stared at him in shock as he made this announcement, finally he revealed his name.

"My name is...Jason Maxwell."

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, now J's name has been revealed. Read and review please.
