In an underground lab, within the Arklay Mountains on the outskirts of Raccoon City, a man in a green vest, member of Raccoon Police Department's S.T.A.R.S. united (Special Tactics And Rescue Squad) was seen cautiously approaching a metallic door, keeping his gun out just in case he spotted any danger.
This man was Chris Redfield, top marksman in S.T.A.R.S., who had been through a long night of fighting all sorts of monsters, trying to uncover the truth on what had happened in this area.
He wasn't alone, he was joined by fellow S.T.A.R.S. members, including Jill Valentine, his closest friend, Rebecca Chambers, the team medic, also the newest and youngest recruit, as well as Barry Burton, the oldest member.
They weren't alone, as S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logics Division), sent in an agent, a woman named Daisy Johnson, also known as Quake. They had survived up until now and were ready to see the truth on what happened to their city.
Upon entering a secret room, they found a bunch of test tubes, many containing more monsters, to the disgust of Chris.
"Great, more of these," Chris lamented.
"What could Umbrella be planning?" Jill wondered.
"Not sure, but Fury will want to know about this," Daisy said.
"To think a Pharmaceutical company can do damage like this," Chris said.
"Must be one hell of a cover-up," Jill said.
"Hey, what's that over there?" Rebecca said, gesturing to a blonde man wearing sunglasses, who seemed to be conversing with a silver haired swordsman. The man had turned to see his guests, "I will speak with you later."
"Very well, we will speak another time then," the swordsman turned to the group, offering a mere sinister smile before he stepped through a strange portal.
"Who the hell was that?" Daisy asked.
"Chris, Jill, the two of you make me so proud," the man said.
"Wesker? What's going on?" Chris asked.
Indeed, this was the S.T.A.R.S. team captain, Albert Wesker, the one who led the mission into the mountains. "I suppose I owe you an explanation."
"What's going on? Who was that guy!?" Jill asked, then heard a clicking sound, turning to see that Barry held a gun to her head. "Well, what do you know?"
"Barry, what's happening?" Rebecca asked, then turned to Wesker. "What are you-"
Suddenly Wesker shot Rebecca, taking Chris by surprise, though in time, he began to put the pieces together. "It was you that Enrico was talking about, the double crosser."
"Quite so," Wesker said. "And don't mind Barry, he just knows that if he doesn't follow my orders, then two little girls will find themselves in great danger."
"That's just low," Daisy said, keeping a close eye on Barry.
"I do what I must, after all this is just business," Wesker said. "I have big ambitions."
"What type of ambitions?" Jill asked. "Tell us what's going on!"
"Fine, I suppose I do owe you an explanation," Wesker said. "Yesterday, that mission that Bravo Team went on, quite honestly it was an embarrassing situation. A virus began to spread because of a man known as Doctor James Marcus, and his bothersome leeches."
"Leeches?" Daisy asked.
"He had a delusion of power, thought himself something like a King," Wesker said. "Ready to rule over his subjects. Myself along with a comrade of mine assisted in overseeing his eventual demise, but he had a backup plan. One that was thwarted by our young friend, Rebecca, and a friend."
Chris looked down to the girl who had just taken a bullet, glaring back at Wesker, "So what? Were the rest of us just here to clean up your mess!?"
"In a way," Wesker said. "See. S.T.A.R.S. was merely my cover so I can ensure that none of you caught wind of this operation, and when things went south, that meant I unfortunately had to give you all up. So I organized this mission to ensure you wouldn't be around to be a nuisance to my plans. The only one I could trust with this information until now was Barry."
"Bet you weren't pleased to see S.H.I.E.L.D.," Daisy said.
"Not quite, but it matters not, you may be strong but even you might not make it out of here alive," Wesker said. "Just like those other agents."
"You'll pay for that with your blood," Daisy said.
"Wow, such heroic dialogue," Wesker taunted. "I will admit, while it's a shame to give you all up, you also made for such great guinea pigs. See, we in Umbrella specialize in our Biological Organic Weapons, or B.O.W.s for short. Testing their abilities on trained combatants gave us marvelous data. Having an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. is a nice bonus, you did us a marvelous service my friends. But I'm afraid your time is up, for there is one test left, and I have little faith that you will survive what's to come."
"You're really doing this, aren't you!?" Chris shouted. "You son of a bitch!"
"Albert Wesker, I hope you know that if you continue these nefarious plans, then you will further attract the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D., and that will not end well for you," Daisy warned. "If by some miracle you get past us, don't be surprised if you have Iron Man or Captain America coming after you next."
"I am more than aware of any involvement I will have with S.H.I.E.L.D. and The Avengers. That' is why I have some backup," Wesker said. "In my position, you make interesting connections."
"Like that friend of yours who was just here," Chris said.
"Sephiroth isn't a friend per say," Wesker said. "He's more of an ally to my cause. My ultimate dream, my mission, to create the ultimate lifeform."
"The ultimate lifeform?" Chris asked.
"This..." Wesker said, gesturing to a monster inside of a large tube. "Is the start of my life's work. Tyrant."
"My God…" Jill said.
To Wesker's surprise, Chis began laughing, bringing some confusion to the traitorous captain, "What, may I ask, is so funny?"
"Wesker, you're gone completely insane, haven't you?" Chris asked. "Ultimate Lifeform? Do you think you're a God or something?"
"You doubt me Chris? Such a shame," Wesker said. "You haven no idea the terrors that will await as I rebuild this world in my image."
"You arrogant bastard, you really think you're going to rule the world, don't you?" Jill asked. "Just another aspiring villain."
"That's enough out of you, Barry, do away with her," Wesker ordered.
"No…" Barry said, to the surprise and relief of his friends, but the irritation of Wesker.
"No?" Wesker repeated. "Did you just, disobey me Barry?"
"I'm done," Barry said, placing his gun away. "I can't work with a monster like you. You have no intention of keeping my family safe, if this plan of yours comes to pass, the world will end up in flames. I cannot allow that on my conscious, I won't work with someone like you!"
"Barry, don't tell me you're having a change of heart," Wesker said. "That would spell out disaster for you, and your daughters."
Just as Wesker was about to shoot, Daisy used her powers to knock the traitor aside, pressing a button as he fell. The Tyrant stepped out of his tube, glaring at the group before him.
"You can all be together, in hell," Wesker taunted.
Suddenly, Tyrant turned his attention to the traitor and impaled him with his claws, tossing Wesker aside right afterwards as he focused on what was ahead of him.
"Shit!" Chris said, getting his gun ready. "Take him down!"
Everyone aimed their weapons, Jill noticing almost right away that Rebecca was still moving, her vest having taken the impact of the bullet. "Cover me, I'm going to help Rebecca up!"
"This won't take long," Daisy said, readying her powers as she, Chris and Barry moved in, preparing to attack, and ready to defeat the Tyrant.
Two months had passed since that fight, what started as the S.T.A.R.S. team going to the mountains after hearing about several unusual deaths in the area, turned into a fight for their lives.
The entire region was infected with a viral outbreak, creating zombified creatures among other mutations. While mutants weren't unusual in this world, with quirks fully coming into light as of recent years, this still seemed like science gone wrong. It could be quirk related, or so much more.
There were once twelve members of S.T.A.R.S., but after that night, only half of them left Raccoon City alive. All of their comrades had died, the only ones left being Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Barry Burton, Rebecca Chambers, Richard Aiken and Brad Vickers.
They didn't survive on their own, as Chris's team weren't the only ones there. A few S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had also been dispatched, along with Daisy Johnson, better known by her Codename, Quake.
It was while there Chris discovered the company behind this outbreak, that being Umbrella and their dreaded T-Virus. On top of that, it seemed they weren't alone, as other organizations had been involved as well, including Shin-Ra, the organization based in the city of Midgar.
Chris attempted to tell everyone it was Umbrella who created the zombies, his teammates also backing up his claim, but no one would hear of it, especially the Chief of Police. Dissatisfied Chris took matters straight to S.H.I.E.L.D., who thanks to Quake, were more than willing to look into this. Chris would then go on to team with Nick Fury in his quest to finally take down Umbrella and their allies while Jill stayed behind to keep an eye on things.
In time however, the citizens of Raccoon City soon suffered the same terrible fate as those in Arklay Mountains, the T-Virus had spread across Raccoon City, infecting its citizens and turning them into zombies. The police tried to stop them, the army tried to protect them, but those sent in fell just the same. Even Umbrella decided to hire some mercenaries, the UBCS, to clean everything up, if to at least cover up their own faults.
This also didn't go unnoticed by S.H.I.E.L.D., who sent in their own agents to handle the situation, including a couple of Avengers.
There were plenty in the city that needed rescuing, including those entering that had no idea what was in store for them. From the distance two civilians were making their way into Raccoon City.
The first of the two being the Rookie Cop Leon Kennedy, who was ready to start his first day of work as a police officer. It was a long drive to where he was from, and unfortunately for this rookie, he had no idea what he was getting himself into.
The second civilian was Claire Redfield, a girl hoping to find her brother after not hearing from him for weeks. He was the only family she had left, she had to make sure he was alright.
The two arrived in the city at almost the same time and were quick to discover that things weren't going to be smooth. Leon showed up and found a body in the middle of the street and went to see what had happened, while Claire walked into a restaurant, one that her brother frequently goes to.
It was then they started to see what had happened to the town, as they were suddenly attacked by zombies, Leon attempting to shoot as many as he can and Claire opting to make a run for it.
As Claire ran for safety, she burst through a door, finding Leon aiming his gun at her, "Wait, don't shoot!"
"Get down!" Leon said, the girl ducking as he took down the infected monster behind her. Once it was dead, Leon was quick to help Claire up. "It's not safe here, come with me to the police station."
The two grabbed a nearby car, Leon immediately driving to the station, Leon trying and failing to call for help on the radio, Claire worried about what was to come.
"Great, the radio's out," Leon lamented.
"Hey, are you a cop?" Claire asked.
"Yeah, and it's my first day on the job, lucky me huh?" the rookie said. "My name is Leon Kennedy, it's nice to meet you."
"I'm Claire Redfield, I'm here to find my brother Chris, he's a cop too," the girl said.
"That's good, hopefully he's around to help," Leon said. "Or explain what happened."
"Me too," Claire said. "What could have happened? Was it a supervillain attack? Some freak accident? Are there any superheroes in town to help us?"
"Not that I've seen, unfortunately," Leon said. "Right now we're on our own."
"Yeah, sure seems like it," a worried Claire said, the two unaware that a truck was driving fast behind them.
"Hey, check the glove box," Leon said.
"Sure," Claire said, opening to find a weapon. "There's a gun inside."
"Better take it with you, just in case," Leon said as Claire grabbed the handgun. "Do you know how to use it?"
"A little, my brother trained me," Claire said. "It's a dangerous world after all, I have to be ready."
"Yeah, sure is," Leon said, then suddenly a zombie had attacked them, Leon losing control of the car and crashing, sending the monster flying out the front window.
"Holy…crap…" Claire said.
"Hey, are you alright?" Leon asked.
"I'm still in one piece," Claire said, then noticed the mirror. "Leon, behind us!"
"Huh?" Leon saw the truck coming, the cop freaking out. "Quick, jump out!"
The truck immediately crashed, the large tank of gasoline causing a massive explosion that separated the two in a large fire.
Leon dusted himself off and quickly called to the other survivor, "Claire! Are you hurt!?"
"Leon!? I'm fine!" Claire said.
"Looks like the fire has us cut off, make your way to the police station, quickly!" Leon said. "I'll make you there later!"
"Yeah, of course!" Claire said, the two going their separate ways.
Leon was closer to the station than Claire was so he was able to get there faster, hoping to find some help. He went through the back gate, avoiding any monsters that came at him and made his way through a generator room and up some stairs to the Helipad.
Unfortunately for Leon though, while he found a couple of cops, one of which even had a helicopter, an attack from zombies had caused the cop to accidentally shoot the pilot, resulting in the Helicopter crashing, their closest chance to escape snatched away. "NO!"
Leon examined the wreck, obviously there were no survivors, and from what he can deduce, there was no way this thing was flying.
"Of course it wouldn't be that easy," Leon lamented. "I hope there's another method of escape."
He suddenly hear the door open and turned around to see who or what was coming, and what he saw was a red hair woman in all black, curiously checking out the area. "What happened here!?"
"Who are you?" Leon asked.
"I believe I asked a question first," the woman said, walking over to Leon. "What happened?"
"Uh, there was a helicopter crash," Leon explained. "Some guy was trying to get it to land, then he got attacked by those monsters. When he tried shooting them I think he got the pilot by mistake."
The woman examined the sight of the wreckage before her, "Great, so much for that escort. I told Elliot to be careful, I knew I should have been here to help."
"Hey, I answered your question, now you gotta answer mine," Leon said. "Who are you?"
"You're demanding, aren't you?" the woman asked.
"Ma'am, I'm an officer of the Raccoon City Police Department, so I'm gonna need a little cooperation," Leon said.
"Fine, but how about you introduce yourself first officer?" the woman said. "It's only proper for the man to introduce himself to a lady."
"Fine, my name's Leon Kennedy," the young man replied.
"Natasha Romanoff," the woman said. "Or Black Widow, whatever you prefer. I work with S.H.I.E.L.D. as well as The Avengers."
"The Avengers?" Leon asked. "Wait, are they here too?"
"No, not all of them, the only other Avenger is Hawkeye," Natasha said. "The others are back in New York."
"New York? They should be here! This city's gone to hell!" Leon said.
"I'm aware of the crisis, but this isn't the only city in the world that's in danger, they spared what they could," Natasha said. "I think there's another rookie hero somewhere in town but I haven't heard from him in a while, I don't even know if he's still alive."
"So that's it? Just two Avengers and some rookie?" Leon asked.
"It took my boss forever to get permission to come here, apparently the government is trying to calm the reports of a zombie outbreak, they don't want it going international," Natasha said. "If The Avengers showed up it could lead to some unwanted attention, so my boss could only send S.H.I.E.L.D. agents like myself and Hawkeye, and they spared one rookie hero, that's all we could get."
"Sounds like a load of bullshit," Leon said.
"Blame the politicians," Natasha said. "Anyway if you're done asking me questions, I need to be on my way, I have see if I can contact for another route out of the city. Since you're a cop, maybe you can help navigate me through the town."
"I'd like to, but just so you know, I'm quite new here," Leon said. "Today was supposed to be my first day on the job."
"Seriously? Wow that's some really bad luck," Natasha said. "Still, even though you're new, you tried asserting some dominant role a moment ago. That takes some guts."
"I may be new but that doesn't change the fact that I am a cop, and this place is part of my jurisdiction," Leon said. "Let's just say, I'm quick to adapt."
"Fine, whatever you say Leon," Natasha said. "But being new means you're the rookie, and I'm a lot more experienced so you're gonna have to do what I tell you to, you got that?"
Leon groaned in annoyance, "Fine, I can do that. Just tell me this at least, are there any other cops alive?"
"Far as I know, a man named Marvin is, but he's critically injured," Natasha said. "I can take you to him if you'd like, I don't know how much time he has left though."
"As long as I'm able to get some information," Leon said, following Natasha into the station. The two walked through the halls, the place looking eerily quiet. Leon passed by the body of a cop, almost gagging at the sight. "What in the..."
"Terrible sight to behold isn't it?" Natasha said. "It looks like he was pecked to death. I did find some birds here before, they were quite aggressive."
"What could have caused all this?" Leon wondered. "Any clues?"
"None that I know of," Natasha said as she opened a nearby door, leading to an outside staircase. "But rest assure that we will get answers."
The two made their way downstairs, making their way into an office on the first floor. However they were quick to notice a few zombies standing around.
"They're here too," Leon said.
Natasha sighed in shame, "Just a moment ago, they were bodies on the ground. Poor men, they should not be subjected to something like this." She pulled out her gun and opened fire, shooting two of the cops in the head.
Leon grabbed his gun and shot the third, all three zombies dead. "These guys were gonna be my coworkers. To think this could happen."
"Someone has to know the truth, we'll keep investigating," Natasha said. "Try not to give up hope just yet, as a cop that means you get to be the hero, can you be a hero?"
"I can try to be," Leon said.
The two walked through the room, carefully keeping an eye out for any surprises. Unfortunately Leon did not pay close attention to the floor as a zombie grabbed his foot.
"Shit! Not again!" Leon quickly pulled his leg away and stomped on the creature's head, crushing it almost instantly. Leon gagged a bit from the sight of all the blood, leaning against a desk just to keep from falling over. "That was close."
"Were you bitten?" Natasha asked.
"No, I'm fine," Leon said. "Man, I can only imagine how painful a bite might be."
"It's not just painful, if you get bitten, you'll be infected and you'll turn into one of them," Natasha explained.
"I'll what!?" Leon asked, mortified by the idea of turning into one of those creatures.
"It's happened, everyone who's come in contact said this is how they transform," Natasha said. "Guard your body well, one bite and it's over."
"Talk about high stakes," Leon said.
Nathasha and Leon made their way through a pair of blue double doors, though on the other side they encountered another group of zombies. Quickly they rushed to the end of the hall out through a single door, shutting it behind them quickly.
Leon looked around to take in his surroundings, "This looks like the main hall."
"You're correct, the officer I mentioned before is in one of these rooms," Natasha said. "Follow me."
As Leon followed her and got another look around, he had one thing on his mind, "Hey, you mentioned before that another Avenger was here, where is he?"
"He should be around, hopefully looking for any survivors," Natasha said.
"Speaking of survivors, I hope that girl is alright," Leon said.
"What girl?" Natasha asked.
"Earlier on I ran into a girl named Claire, she came to Raccoon City looking for her brother, we got separated after a truck nearly rammed us," Leon explained. "I told her to meet me at the station, but that's the last I heard of her. Doesn't help that this place is infected as well."
"We'll get our answers, come with me," Natasha said, leading Leon into a room.
Meanwhile Claire had indeed made it to the station, after avoiding a wave of zombies. After going inside, she had gone into the nearest set of double doors, hoping to get a look around the place.
She kept going and found herself in a narrow walkway, taking note of a body that had been badly torn up. "What could have done something like this?" She continued her way until she heard some hissing. "What was that?" Looking up she saw something horrific, a creature with long claws crawling on the ceiling. This creature looked almost human, except its skin was completely gone and all its muscles was visible, as well as it's brain.
Suddenly it dropped to the ground, right in front of Claire, the teen girl backing up, keeping her gun out. The creature slowly approached her, Claire sweating quite a bit. Suddenly she began firing, hitting it a few times, but not enough to kill it. She grabbed her stronger Bow Gun just as it leapt, but just before she could fire, an arrow pierced through it.
Quickly she rolled aside as the creature hit the wall. She turned and spotted a man with sunglasses wearing a black and purple suit, he was wielding his bow and arrow. "Stand aside!"
The creature turned to the man but he quickly fired more arrows before it could attack again, finally killing the creature.
Claire was amazed, this person was quick with a bow and arrow, "Wow...thanks."
"No problem," the archer walked over and pulled the arrows of the monster. "I can still use these, good." He turned to Claire, "You're not hurt are you?"
"No I'm fine, thank you mister," Claire said, putting her weapon away.
"My name's Clint, but the world knows me as Hawkeye," the archer said.
"Hawkeye?" Claire remembered that name. "Wait, you're part of The Avengers!"
"That I am," Clint confirmed.
"So if you're here that means they are too right!?" Claire said, getting excited. "This is great, maybe you can-"
"Let me cut you off right there," Clint said. "The Avengers didn't come, they're still back in New York. The only other assistance I have are my friend Natasha, who you might know as Black Widow, some kid who calls himself Spider-Man and a small group of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents."
"Wait, The Avengers didn't come?" Claire asked.
"They wanted to, but circumstances prevented that from happening," Clint explained. "It's some bullshit government reason, they don't want to bring too much attention to Raccoon City yet."
"This city's in peril, why won't the Government step in?" Claire asked.
"They're trying to avoid a panic, if word gets out that zombies are real, people are gonna freak," Clint said. "They're already paranoid about demons after an incident from years prior, plus the whole revelation that aliens are real. Guess the government is playing damage control, but this city is the one that's gonna suffer because of that."
"So we're on our own still?" Claire asked.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure to get you and any other survivor out of the city," Clint reassured. "It's my job as a hero, and my obligation as a decent human being."
"Well, I do appreciate that," Claire said. "My name's Claire Redfield by the way."
"Redfield?" Clint asked. "Question, do you have a brother?"
"You mean Chris?" Claire asked. "Have you heard from him!?"
"Not recently, but I have met him at least once," Hawkeye said. "If you want information, you'll have to ask Marvin Branagh, I can take you to him."
"Please, that would help," Claire said, following the Avenger to wherever he was taking her.
In a room on the first floor of the RPD, Natasha had led Leon inside where they spotted a man injured on the floor, blood all over his torso.
"Oh man..." Leon made his way over. "Is this him?"
Natasha nodded, "That's him."
Marvin looked up, spotting Leon, "Who are you...oh, you're the new guy, Leon. Sorry to tell you, but your party had to be cancelled."
Before Leon could question him further, the door had opened again, revealing Claire, "Leon!"
"Claire, you made it!" Leon said.
Right behind her was Clint, "Nat, you're here too?"
"Clint?" Natasha asked.
Claire noticed Marvin against the floor, "Oh no." She rushed to his side, checking over the cop. "He looks hurt."
"Who are you?" Marvin asked.
"I'm Claire Redfield, I'm trying to find my brother Chris," Claire explained.
"We lost contact with him over ten days ago," Marvin said. "Not just him, the other S.T.A.R.S. members, Jill Valentine, Barry Burton, Richard Aiken, Rebecca Chambers and Brad Vickers are also missing. We should have listened to them."
"What happened?" Leon asked.
"Two months ago, in a mansion located in the outskirts of the city, there was an incident involving these zombie-like creatures," Marvin said. "That's where Chris and the other S.T.A.R.S. members discovered that the Pharmaceutical Company Umbrella was behind everything. They risked their lives to reveal the truth, but no one believed them. Not long after that, all this started to happen."
Marvin groaned in a pain some more, much to the worry of everyone in the room.
"Are you ok?" Claire asked.
"Try to hang in there," Leon urged.
"Don't worry about me, just rescue the other survivors," Marvin said.
"I don't think anyone else is alive Marvin," Natasha said. "Elliot just died, there's no one else left."
"Elliot!?" Marvin asked in surprise. "Damn...What about the Helicopter he called?"
"It crashed, the pilot's dead," Natasha said. "We'll just have to wait for S.H.I.E.L.D. to send a replacement."
"If they do, I can't get into contact with them," Clint said.
"We'll find a way," Natasha insisted. "I'll be damned before I die in this city."
"Help will come, you just need to keep this place secure, and make sure everyone in the station gets out alive," Marvin said.
"We'll go check the other rooms then," Natasha said, then turned to Leon and Claire. "Let's hurry now."
"Right," Leon turned back to Marvin. "Just try to hold on, we'll be back for you."
"We're not gonna leave you to die," Claire said.
Marvin nodded, the four finally leaving him be in the room. Slowly he got up and made his way to his office, "I wish I could promise my own survival, but I know I don't have much time left. God willing they'll be able to get out while they still can."
The group had made their way back to the main hall, making some new plans on what needs to be done next.
"So much for finding my brother, I thought for sure he'd be here," Claire said.
"Maybe someone else here might know?" Leon asked, then turned to Natasha. "Are there any other cops in the building?"
"Not a lot, the only other cop I saw was Elliot, and he's dead. For all I know, the others are probably dead too," Natasha said. "I hate to say it, but it sounds like we're low on survivors. These zombies are taking over the city."
"Not only that, there was also that that weird skinless creature," Clint added. "It's not the only one of its kind either."
"What skinless creature?" Leon asked.
"It was the ugliest thing I've seen in my life," Claire said. "For Staters, it's muscles and brain were totally exposed. Then it lunged at me with its claws."
"We might see more of them," Hawkeye said. "Some cops I talked to earlier mentioned them, they called them Lickers since apparently they can stretch their tongues out several feet."
"Like that Brotherhood Mutant Toad?" Natasha asked.
"Exactly like that," Clint said. "We better keep an eye out if we're gonna explore the Police Station."
"Where should we start?" Leon asked.
"Can I make a suggestion?" Claire said. "Maybe we can find the S.T.A.R.S. office, there could be a clue as to where my brother went."
"The S.T.A.R.S. office is on the second floor, we can get to there through those doors," Natasha said, gesturing to the double doors.
"Let's get a move on then," Leon said, making his way to the doors, with Claire, Natasha and Clint following, hoping to get some more information about the whereabouts of Chris, and likely find more survivors.
But what Natasha and Clint really wanted to know were any clues that could have caused all this to happen in the first place.
This story is part of the Hero Academia timeline, showing the origins of Resident Evil in this world. It will only cover two of the games for now, but it's still a fun little side project to further expand this universe.
