August 17th, 1980
The corpse of Professor Miles Sokolov was found. A message was written in his blood as it said, "The all seeing eye". A red rock was found at the scene as well.
January 23rd, 2001
G.U.N establishes governmental control and abolishes military forces of every country, making them the only official army. Old files of 115 research has been opened and looked into.
May 6th, 2007
Zak Maxis is asked to look at the properties of a meteorite recovered from Russia. He is later assigned to work on a teleporter project using the element extracted from the rock.
June 11, 2009
Two years after Zak Maxis's project, his brother Ludvig is requested to work on the project that his brother was unable to complete before he went missing and later claimed dead. Ludvig Maxis finds himself working at former prison facility Geisteskranken.
June 25th, 2009
Doctor Maxis requests the help of Edward Richtofhen, who is transferred to the facility and begins developing the initial design for the new teleporter. The first 115 sample has arrived.
April 1st, 2010
Assistant Jun Swagger is sent to help Doctor Maxis. Technical arrangements are being prepared at Geisteskranken before testing begins. Edward Richtofhen begins to handle element 115 without protection, exposing himself to the radiation. Full testing is expected to begin next year.
January 1st, 2011
After the first test, a zombie was created. Doctor Maxis informs G.U.N of this and is informed to continue test's while finding a way to control the undead creatures.
January 22th, 2011
Subject "Five" is created. Liquid 115 has been injected into his bloodstream as the DNA coding procedure has proved successful. Subject bears the appearance of Miles "Tails" Prower.
February 14th, 2011
After weeks of testing, "Five" had shown his skills numerous times without failure. At this time, an inspection agent was sent to check the facility, where it was discovered that Edward was developing weapons with an unknown collaborator. He was sent to "Verruckt" by request of Doctor Maxis. Certain testing with "Five" caused a break in his coding.
March 1st, 2011
"Five" leads the zombies of Geisteskranken and kills all the staff along with Doctor Maxis. The facility is declared lost and the Outbreak has been confirmed. At this time, the zombies are rallied and leaded by the advanced mindset of Five, who has complete control over the minds of the undead.

2015
There is no hope; hope is lost in the darkness. Death is imminent. Join the horde…
All is gone
"Fetch me their SOULS!" The demonic voice rang out in laughter as the hellish dogs emerged from the fog and electricity that formed in circles around them.
Sonic watched as one of the dogs ran towards him, its teeth bared as he ran towards the wall, walking up it a little before doing a backflip and letting the hound crash against the steel wall. It turned its head back towards him, barking angrily as it charged again, this time getting shot multiple times before it crashed onto the ground.
"What the hell are these?" Sonic shouted his question to Richtofhen, who was barely visible through the fog that seemed to engulf the entire room.
"I do not know." He answered while firing his MP40 at another dog, watching it explode into a mess of blood and yellow puss. "But if I had to guess, this must have been the experiment at Der Reise…"
Another whistling collection of electricity appeared right behind Tails, turning around as he saw the hellhound appear and sprint towards him, biting onto his arm as he held it out as a shield. The dog brought him to the ground as its teeth sank into his skin and then into his flesh, yelling as the dogs yellow eyes glowed ferociously as it started to snarl and dropped his arm.
Richtofhen managed to hear the pained fox, looking over as he shot the monster off him and continued to try and kill it, managing so, but not before it tore off the bandages around Tails appendages.
Tails gasped at the amount of blood pouring out of the gash on his arm, but found it incredibly painful to sit as his tails were aching. He saw the doctor who stared at him a bit before he shouted for him to come over here and help him.
Richtofhen quickly ran over to the two tailed fox, kneeling down as he tried looking over the wounds that the fox was given. Meanwhile, the hellhounds were constantly appearing through their unnatural means, leaving Sonic and Knuckles to fight them off as Tails was down with Richtofhen attending to him.
"Edward, it bit me…" Tails told the brown fox as he examined the arm, touching the edge of the gash as he took a tiny tip of blood onto his finger and licked it.
"It's happening…" The doctor mumbled as he grabbed a cloth from one of his coat pockets and started to wrap it around the Kit's arm. "This will stop the bleeding, but without the proper equipment, I can't stop it."
Tails didn't answer as he tried standing up, falling back down as he felt weak all of a sudden.
"Oh my… such affects shouldn't be happening so early…" Edward exclaimed as he grabbed the Foxes arm and pulled him back into a sitting position.
The doctor pulled a small syringe from one of his various pockets and checked to see if it was still fresh. Tails saw the needle and immediately gulped as he feared the metallic point of the syringe. As he watched Edward take the needle and bring it close to the kit's arm, he noticed how the liquid in it was a glowing red that looked somewhat like blood.
"Alright my friend, I wasn't hoping to use this so soon, but you're health right now demands it." He told Tails as he nodded. "This is the cure to what ails you."
He stabbed the needle into Tails arm, pushing as the liquid poured into the fox's bloodstream. Soon, all of the red liquid was gone from the needle as Edward pulled it out and threw it away.
Tails grabbed the point where Edward injected the fluid, gripping it tightly as he seemed to clench his teeth. He began to feel the inside of his body get heated up until it started to burn, even his blood began to boil as he grabbed his head and screamed.
"Control yourself, you aren't one of them!" Edward shouted as he cupped his hand over Tails mouth, watching his iris turn a bloody red for a few seconds before dying back down to the blue they always were.
Tails removed Edwards hand as he breathed heavily, inhaling and exhaling as he felt the heat going away and began to feel a cold chill run throughout his body, which was very relaxing at this moment.
"Excellent, now I know it works!" Edward shouted aloud. "I didn't get the chance to experiment with that back at- oh, you're still listening to me?"
"Edward, what was that? What was happening to me?" Tails asked curiously, still breathing heavily.
"No time my friend let us attend to the demons!" He shouted with glee as a hellhound ran past Sonic right towards Richtofhen as he stabbed it in the eye before shooting it twice in the stomach and letting it explode. It covered him in the dry blood, laughing as he eyed for more of them.
Tails carefully stood back up, raising the rifle to look through the sights as he shot at one of the hellhounds running at him followed by a trail of fire, leaving a black smudge on the floor as it blew up.
Sonic quickly ran up to Knuckles, who grabbed the hedgehog's hands quickly as he performed a spin dash as Knuckles threw him towards one of the dogs, smashing the creature against the wall as Sonic's quills ripped straight through its flesh. The blue hedgehog exited through the dog and jumped off the wall as he let the limp body fall in a heap.
"Talk about being extreme, I wish I had more of the intention to do that, if they didn't cover me in their blood." He muttered as he quickly wiped the blood and puss off his shoulder.
"Stop talking and start shooting, Sonic!" Knuckles shouted as he lifted his fist to meet the jaw of a hellhound, sending it flying over the railing as it let out a soft whimper.
Tails felt the strange burning underneath his skin as he began to twitch, later dropping his rifle as he held his head in exhaustion and pain. He cringed as he felt a sharp pain stabbing at him in the head, feeling certain that his head was about to explode.
His iris turned red once again as a hellhound approached him, the dog circling him as he seemed to lose himself for moments. Tails didn't think as his mind went blank, his limbs went numb as he didn't know what he was doing or why.
The hound charged at him, jumping as it tried to tackle him down to rip out his throat, but the Kitsune thought otherwise as he side-stepped out of the way and shot dead on, puncturing it right through the eye as red specks flowed onto the ground. Tails growled as another approached him, baring his teeth for a moment as he suddenly held his head in pain.
The dog just stood there for a moment, seeming confused as Edward jumped onto the doggy and stabbed it in the throat, letting it bled out as he cut into its stomach and let the contents flow out.
The fog was fading slightly as more of the dogs died, leaving the assumption that there was only a few more to kill. The three went full out as Tails stood there with his bloodshot eyes, finally returning to normal as he nearly collapsed on the floor with sweat dripping down his face.
"Tails start shooting at them!" Knuckles informed the kit of his inactivity while he pumped shells into the hellhound's heads.
The yellow fox did just that as he aimed at the last remaining dogs, watching them die as he had his sights on the very last one, waiting only a few moments before it got close to him as he pressed down on the trigger.
He heard a click as his eyes were wide open, watching slowly as the dog jumped towards him, its mouth open.
A knife flew through the air as it hit the dogs in the throat, making it fall and miss Tails as it struggled to get back up with its blood spewing from its neck. The doctor walked towards it slowly, drawing his pistol as the dog limped slightly away from him before growling back in a last, pitiful attempt to intimidate him.
"Goodbye doggy, we had a fun time together." He said as he shot the dog through the head, dropping down as it bled out onto the floor.
Maybe the doctor was too distracted to see the floating green box that hovered right above his head, but Sonic, Knuckles and Tails certainly saw it as they were puzzled by what it was.
"Hey Doc, you notice that glowing green thing above you?" Sonic pointed out to the brown fox, looking up as he saw the unidentified object.
"Oh, just another object floating in the air that I can only see because I'm crazy and such- wait, did you see it?" He asked after mumbling.
"Goddamn, we're just about out of ammo and those dogs seem to be gone now…" Knuckles stated as he pointed out the fog was rolling out. "But I think our other friends are still here."
Edward stood up abruptly as his head touched the glowing box, disappearing as he felt a sudden weight pull him down, grumbling incoherently as he cursed out loud.
"MAX AMMO!" A voice familiar to the one that had tried taking their souls said, slightly different but still demonically threatening had shouted out as it echoed around them.
"That voice… could it be?" Edward finally felt a connection to the demons voice. "I didn't think it was before, but… is it possible?"
"What the hell are you mumbling about Richtofhen? And where the hell did all of this ammo come from?" Sonic had asked, now being considerable confused of everything that was happening. "I wish I could be told a damn thing about all this, I'm tired of being clueless!"
"Sonic, calm down." Tails whispered over to his brother.
"Look at this; we've just got all our ammunition back. Thank Chaos." Knuckles muttered in relief.
"Friends, although I am still quite puzzled by this, it seems some supernatural being has gifted us with the blessing of ammunition for our weapons, even if we weren't paying attention to that detail before." Richtofhen explained. "I do not know if this… whatever it is entirely trying to help us, but it would be wise to-"
"Who cares?" Knuckles interrupted. "If it gives us more of what we need to kill these things, then it's fine by me."
"I think it's cool, since it just helped us." Sonic agreed.
"You remember how bad the translator I built in Sonic Colors was Sonic? Man, it was terrible." Tails referenced. "Oh, I mean, that's really strange. I wonder how all this got here?"
"Well fine, mock me. I'll be the only one surviving all this anyway… because I'm too magnificent." Edward mumbled as he sorted through the ammunition, throwing it over to the others as he found his own.
Getting their new supply of ammo, they locked and loaded as they quickly assessed the situation.
"There are a bunch of zombies coming to our location, and we need to get the hell out of here. This BTR will do that, it just needs two parts, which shouldn't take long consider all the wrecked ones here." Tails explained. "I'll look for the parts, but it'll roughly take me four minutes to detach each one. After that, it'll take me at least half an hour to reassemble them to where they're needed."
"So you just need us to defend, right little buddy?" Sonic asked.
"Basically. I might need Knuckles help with lifting one of the pieces though and with a few adjustments…" Tails had replied before his vision got a little hazy.
"Hey, you okay?" Sonic concerned.
"I'm fine… I think." The fox replied quickly as he touched his forehead.
"Vah, this will be very easy. I'm only disappointed that we couldn't find the golden rod, I mean, did any of you look?" Edward asked to the three.
"Richtofhen, we're fighting zombies, did you think we had time to look?" Knuckles retorted.
"Not a huge loss, the other pieces will be required though…" He ignored Knuckles as he schemed quietly.
They all got to work, first helping Tails stand up as he chuckled slightly, getting to one of the vehicles and looking for one of the pieces. Sonic watched the windows on the railing as Knuckles watched the ones of the bottom floor. Richtofhen stood in the middle as he looked out for any other spots the flesh addicts would come from.
But on the corner of the doctors eye, he spotted a small little device wedged into the treads of a destroyed tank and could not help himself from looking about. He grabbed the tiny device as he noticed it was some radio of some kind.
Eagerly, he looked on the sides of the device for a button of some sort, finally finding it as the device cracked and played a recorded message.
"I have yet to make proper use of the technology, as one of the subjects, or zombies as they are referred to have bitten me. I've had the bite disinfected, but I am feeling quite tired as of recently…"
(Yawns)
"Perhaps I should look into this with Doctor Edward; he has been doing some research on them, and 115 effects on the living being. Maybe he will know what is happening."
"Gersch? Are you in here?"
"Ah Yuri, I was just finishing an audio diary sample, care to record yours?"
"Eh, not right now. The device is functioning properly; we have successfully created a black hole."
"Have you sent any subjects through?"
"Yes, but they did not reappear anywhere. We don't think they even survived touching it."
"Hm, would a living person be killed by the hole?"
"Possible, although the zombies have had different results with most technology then living people. We might be able to go through, but…"
"No one is volunteering?"
"Yes Gersch, I'm afraid no one wants to risk disappearing forever."
"Then I'll do it. God help me if this is the only thing stopping our project."
"But Gersch, what if it malfunctions, or if you don't reappear?"
"Then you'll know it didn't work."
(End recording)
"Ha ha ha, Yuri, what a silly little man." Edward chuckled to himself. "This must be before Gersch supposedly died… how tragic."
A moan disrupted the doctor, a zombies moan as it stepped up to one of the windows Knuckles was watching. It broke a piece of the glass as Knuckles aimed the shotgun and blasted half its arm off before dying.
"Is that all of them? You'd swear by their numbers before there'd be a lot more." The Knucklehead said.
"Don't jinx us, it's bad enough already." Sonic complained, looking through the windows and seeing nothing.
"Knuckles, can you help me take this one piece out? It's really stuck in here." Tails shouted for assistance as the echidna obliged.
"Sure, sure. Hey Richtofhen, watch my windows." He ordered the brown fox who gave him a sharp glare.
"I'm a doctor, not a… windows maker?" He failed to come up with a clever response. "Oh, if you only waited for the next map pack, I'd have a better line to retort with!"
"I see one!" Sonic shouted as he shot four bullets at the creature, letting it fall onto the sharp glass scattered around the floor inside the room. "I can hear more, better hurry up your repairing Tails!"
"This isn't anything. I can take this piece out just by grabbing it and-"Knuckles said as he grabbed the large gear and ripped it out. "See?"
"Just another piece then, hope I don't get drowsy while doing this." Tails said softly as he grabbed the piece from Knuckles and put it down by the mostly operational BTR.
As he crawled underneath one of the wrecked vehicles, three zombies crowded one of the windows at once, shattering the glass in moments as they jumped through and got in.
Knuckles grabbed a grenade he kept and released the pin, waiting a good three seconds before tossing it over to the flesh ridden monster. The small explosion along with the pieces of shrapnel tore the legs off the zombies and managed to kill one while two just crawled, pulling themselves forward with their arms.
"These guys just don't quit." Knuckles grunted as her ran up to them and bashed their heads in. "Should have quit when they had a head."
"Hello? More of the minions over here!" Richtofhen yelled as the zombies broke through the other windows Knuckles was watching.
"Why the hell don't you shoot them?"
"It's called, conserving ammo. Try it sometime, you might survive longer." The doctor replied.
However, Sonic jumped down from the railing as he hit one zombie head on, making it collapse as he jumped off and fired rapidly at the remaining few.
"Sonic's the name, speeds my game!" The blue hedgehog grinned as he quoted the phrase of his.
Meanwhile, Tails scavenged through the broken BTR until he found the right piece, grabbing it firmly as he pulled as hard as he could. Luckily, it wasn't locked in there as he pulled out the smaller piece and brought it over to the designated BTR.
"Okay, thirty minutes tops… I can do that." He mumbled to himself as he began to feel a sudden trickle of sweat flow down his forehead. "Just gotta hurry and get out of here…"
"Miles..."
"What?" Tails looked around, hearing someone whisper into his ear. He shook his head as his luck seemed extremely lucky considering he found a blow torch nearby, but without a face mask. Quite dangerous, but he didn't care at the moment.
He began placing the pieces in their proper spots and wielded it with the machine. Putting the small piece in first and struggling to keep the flame as far from his face as possible.
"Eat bullets!" Sonic shouted as he kept shooting his SMG, running out of bullets extremely fast as he began to reload. "This is more complicated than the pistol… eh, screw it." Sonic said as he put the gun away and pulled out the M9 pistol, shooting accurately as he killed two zombies flowing in through the windows.
"If I keep shooting them enough, then their body parts will be torn into little pieces… does anyone have a bag?" Edward asked as he smiled maniacally.
"Eye on the prize Richtofhen, eye on the prize…" Knuckles muttered as he tried ignoring the crazy doctor.
"Oh, I do have my eyes on the prize alright…"
Outside
"Get off of my boots, bone-junkie." The gruff hedgehog mumbled as he kicked another crawler off of his feet. He rubbed his chin as he noticed the lack of zombies in front of the G.U.N base and seeing all the fiery wreckage.
"Where the hell are they? Did they all start a tee party in there or something?" He thought to himself. "I might as well go in and kick there ass and get a better fucking radio."
The hedgehog pushed the dented steel frame down as he walked over the wreck that was once the door. He looked around the lobby, whistling as he took note of the bloody mess everywhere.
"Talk about being messy eaters." He joked to himself. "And hello, what is this?"
He walked over to a machine that was tucked away in the corner. The strangely brown colored machine read "Double Tap Root Beer" As a catchy jingle played when the hedgehog neared it. Intrigued, he brought out five quarters as he placed them within the machine and waited for a response.
The machine made no noise as a bottle dropped down in a container with a push able lid to let him take it. Inside was a fizzy brownish colored soda.
"Can't wait to drink this." He said as he twisted the cap and took a big gulp before wiping his mouth and taking a breath.
He licked his lips as he threw the bottle away after chugging the rest of it and started to talk to himself again.
"Tastes better than Juggernog, but probably doesn't have the added benefits."
He looked over to the elevator and saw what floor it was on. Grumbling as he decided not to use it, he tried to open the door to the stairs, but had no luck as it was locked from behind.
"How original, having one of the only paths blocked. Just my fuckin' day." He continued to speak to himself. "Lady lucks just being a bitch to ol' Dempsey."
Dempsey stood there, pondering his options for a moment as he decided to stand around in the lobby, waiting for more of the undead to kill. Something to occupy his time, at least he could enjoy killing hundreds of them before he ever died. If he ever died.
"Bring it, you maggot whores."
