Chapter 15: Grand Finale
11:00 AM 12th May 1995
The T-103 wasted no time and charged directly at them. They leapt to the side and immediately opened fire with their shotguns. However as he turned he raised his claws and seemed to become impervious to bullets.
"Guys this is bad," Lisa called out, "He can defend himself now, we've gotta come up with something?"
They continue to dodge his attacks and fired shots whenever they could, although most were blocked or shrugged off and soon they had emptied their shotguns completely and were forced to discard them.
"What the fuck? How strong is this bastard?" Lisa raged as she ducked under another claw swipe.
"Let's see how it likes this!" Carl yelled as he pulled out John's assault rifle and opened fire.
The T-103 raised its arms to block again, but not before some shots struck its face making it moan in pain.
"That's it, the head is the weak point, we just need to distract somehow so I can get a clear shot." Carl called out, Lydia and Lisa nodded and pulled out their handguns, "Leave it to us."
With that they took aim and prepared to put Carls plan in action.
Meanwhile, plan XX had been initiated and the missiles were prepared. The time was 11:20 AM and the missiles would be launched at 11:30 AM, they would reach Raccoon City and blow it up at precisely 12:00 AM. Trevor growled at the loss of Elsie and three of his best agents who had been sent in with the chopper.
'No matter, soon it will all be obliterated; those pesky fools who survived this long will be destroyed too.'
He sat back and waited for the show to begin. Back in Raccoon City, Lisa and Lydia immediately began to fire with their handguns, they attacked from opposite directions, confusing their target and lowering its guard. Carl immediately unloaded the rest of the clip and his spare into the monsters face before it put its guard up again. It was still standing, but was definitely hurt. Lisa and Lydia regrouped and fired the last of their handgun ammo into the beast when suddenly it struck them with a vicious backhand. Both young women found themselves hanging onto the ledge of the building for dear life as their empty handguns fell down to the street below. Carl quickly dropped the useless assault rifle and pulled out his handgun and opened fire. The T-103 was thus distracted and both women tried desperately to summon the strength to pull themselves up. Just then Jacob appeared and grabbed their arms, helping them up. Once they were back on solid ground Lisa hugged Jacob.
"Thanks," She breathed, "But what did I tell you? Stay out of sight."
Jacob shook his head, "I wasn't gonna let you die."
Lisa sighed and nodded before they all stood up.
Carl had emptied his handgun and already had a new plan. He had run around, grabbing something from the bodies and had rejoined the group.
"Check it out, grenades. Let's blow this fucker to hell." He stated, holding out five grenades.
They nodded and grabbed the grenades before pulling the pin and throwing them. Two landed at the T-103's feet while one landed in its right claw. The other two landed near its head, one in the crook of its neck, the other on top of its head. The grenades all went off as one and the beast stumbled and roared as the explosions consumed it. The smoke cleared and it stood there, burned, bleeding and badly damaged.
"One more hit like that would kill it." Carl noticed, "But we're all out of grenades."
"There might be a way, if I can just…Look out!" Lydia yelled as the beast charged them.
They jumped to the side but Jacob wasn't so fortunate and was struck by the beast. He was now lying close to the edge, whimpering in pain as he clutched his leg which was obviously broken.
"Jacob!" Lisa was panicked but the T-103 stood between her and the young boy.
The T-103 was also near a ledge and Lydia saw a chance to put her plan into action. She grabbed the weapon she had spotted earlier, a grenade launcher, checked it to see if it had ammo and then took aim.
"Say goodbye." She growled before pulling the trigger.
The grenade launcher fired and struck home, blowing the T-103's right arm completely off and sending it staggering. It staggered right over the ledge and fell off the side.
Lydia dropped the grenade launcher, plan XX had already been initiated, it was now 11:55 AM, just five more minutes until the missiles struck.
"Guys, it's time we got outta here, Lisa go get Jacob, I'll get the chopper running." Lydia called out and ran to the chopper.
As Lydia got the chopper up and running, Carl climbed into the passenger section. Lisa ran over to Jacob.
"Jacob?"
"Lisa," He groaned, "My leg."
She nodded, "I know, we'll get it seen to, don't worry, we're getting out of here now, the nightmare's over."
Jacob smiled as Lisa picked him up and carried him over to the chopper. She quickly climbed aboard and sat Jacob down, keeping his leg secure. She sat down herself after closing the door and, with them all strapped in, Lydia got to work and the chopper took off. It flew away from Raccoon City just in time and was just out of range as the missiles struck and destroyed the entire city. Despite the exhaustion and pain they all suffered the survivors were happy, they had escaped with their lives.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
