Wesker burst into his makeshift laboratory, searching for the data he needed for the cure. Pausing for a moment to fling his fist over his shoulder, smashing a zombie's face in, he slipped a memory chip into the computer and began the downloading process, making sure he had a sample of Jake's blood, as well as the data for his other project. A J'avo came into the laboratory, blasting away with its assault rifle, but Wesker managed to dodge every single bullet with a cocky smirk on his face, as the J'avo came at him with a machete. He taunted the J'avo with his god-like speed, breaking the machete in half and the J'avo stepped back in fear.
"That's right, you little vermin, be afraid. You are nothing compared to me. The Red Queen may have made you smart enough to wield a gun, but you are still just a cockroach. Me?"
A blur of movement and the J'avo was dangling in the air, Wesker holding it one-handed by its throat, as the J'avo struggled to free itself to no avail.
"I am a god."
With a simple twist of his wrist, Wesker snapped the J'avo's neck, before returning to the computer and he smiled when he saw the download was complete. Storing the chip inside his coat, Wesker exited the laboratory, a smirk coming to him when he heard gunfire down in one of the rooms. He headed for the shooting, pausing only to horse-kick an incoming machete-wielding J'avo, then rounded the corner to see Alice riddle a J'avo with bullets and smash its head against the wall with a powerful kick.
"Most impressive," Wesker applauded, "Now, shall we get out of here?"
"Not until I find Becky," Alice replied, striding past him.
"We are on a time limit. The Osprey Chris came here in is our only mode of transport to China. How long before it gets destroyed?"
"Well, best you get there and make sure it stays intact. You're fast enough to avoid a nuclear bomb, so off you go, Barry Allen."
"You just make sure you get on the Osprey in time. Find your kid."
"And while you're at it, you can go find your kid as well."
Wesker's eyes glowed briefly before he was gone in a blur of movement, as Alice made her way through the hallways, stepping over bodies and pools of blood while blasting apart any zombie or J'avo she came across. Even though she was looking for Becky, she was also trying to find survivors, but she wasn't having any luck, finding them dead in the corridors or in the rooms where they tried to barricade themselves in to no avail. It was disheartening to see; especially given they had managed to hold out for so long, only for them to be cut down so swiftly like this. It made Alice see red and the desire to make Umbrella pay burned within her. Holstering her submachine guns, Alice continued her search, as a J'avo came at her, slashing its machete. Catching his arm, Alice delivered three fierce blows to his ribs, the final strike slamming him against the far wall. She went to finish it off, but something grabbed her ankle and she looked down at the zombie, recognizing it as one of the survivors. The Majini's mouth opened wide like a flower, as Alice wretched her ankle free and brought her heel smashing down onto the Majini's head. Meanwhile, the J'avo had gotten its feet, as Alice grabbed its arm and flipped it onto its back, then crushed its head beneath her boot. Discarding the body, Alice came across a group of J'avo, all of them carrying machetes, although one of them was waving a stun rod about. They saw her and spoke to each other in their unknown language, before slowly approaching her. She simply smirked.
"Seriously, boys, you stand no chance."
She clipped one in the jaw with her boot, then ducked a machete and struck the owner in its ribs. The stun rod came for her, but Alice reversed the move, electrocuting the J'avo, then began using the stun rod against the other J'avo, sometimes using their own machetes to stab each other as she finished them off one by one. Once they were dead, Alice continued on her way, keeping the stun rod in hand as she searched for her 'daughter'.
Gunfire and screams were echoing throughout the White House, as K-Mart came to the exit, seeing Claire herding the survivors onto the last of the vehicles, seeing the Kipepeo circling overhead as the soldiers tried to shoot them down. Just before she could rush outside to her friend, Jake came crashing out of a wall, the Ustanak slowly stepping out after him.
"Jake!" K-Mart cried, before shooting the beast in the head.
"Sherry, just go!" Jake cried as the Ustanak turned to her.
"Becky, I want you to run," K-Mart told the child, "Run to Claire."
She nodded and as K-Mart backed away from the Ustanak, shooting at it to keep it away from Jake, Becky ran out into the open, hands over her head, as a Kipepeo dived for her. A gunshot cracked the air and the Kipepeo fell dead to the ground, as Claire picked Becky up and put her on the truck.
"Keep her safe," she said.
The woman holding Becky nodded and after a signal from Claire, the driver planted his foot, blasting out of the compound and into the open. Requesting that they would be okay, Claire raced back inside the White House, only to be thrown outside by K-Mart's flying form. The pair rolled across the dead ground several times, as the Ustanak approached Jake. He tucked his handgun away, drawing the large Magnum revolver he had taken from the armoury, hoping that it was enough to put the relentless beast down. He pulled the trigger, the recoil nearly throwing him off his feet, as the bullet pierced the Ustanak through the head. It paused, let out a groan and collapsed to the ground, as Jake rushed out to Claire and K-Mart. Since the latter was closer, he helped her to her feet, shaking her awake, as Claire groaned.
"Don't I get a knight in shining armour?" she asked.
Jake sighed and helped Claire to her feet, as the Ustanak started to twitch.
"Are you fucking kidding me? What's it going to take for this asshole to die?"
"We've gotta go," Claire said, "We don't have time."
The three darted past the Ustanak as it got to its feet with a bellow and chased after them. Quickly gaining speed despite its large size, the Ustanak was gaining on them, until they rounded a corner and saw Leon and Ada, the former holding a grenade launcher.
"Duck!"
Jake, K-Mart and Claire threw themselves to the ground, as Leon fired two canisters in quick succession, the resounding explosion putting the Ustanak through a wall. With the beast down for the time being, the group made their way towards the rooftop where the Osprey awaited them, coming across Alice mowing down several zombies and Majinis with her submachine guns.
"Any of you seen Becky?" she asked in the middle of her killing.
"She's safe," Claire replied, shooting a zombie, "I saw her out on a truck."
Satisfied, Alice finished off the last of the zombies, a look of sadness on her face and Leon recognized some of the undead as survivors and fighters of the Resistance. He understood what she was upset about, given how they fought every day to protect the last of the survivors, only for them to be wiped out in a single fell swoop.
"Umbrella isn't going to get away with this," he said, approaching her, "We're gonna go to their facility and end this. Wesker has the cure. We can still save the world."
"I know," Alice said, "Best we get to it then."
Meanwhile, Jill and Chris burst into the armoury, the former moving through the empty racks until she found what she was looking for. As Chris shot down any incoming infected, Jill opened the chest and removed the purge bomb, before setting the timer.
"Good to see you haven't lost your bomb skills," Chris commented.
"Good to see you haven't lost your aim," Jill playfully taunted as she rejoined him, "Come on, we've only got four minutes."
"Why the hell do you have one of those stored here?"
"Wesker had it as a last resort and only if all else failed. If we were to go down fighting here, outnumbered and done for, that was meant to be set as a final blaze of glory," Jill explained.
"Great. I've seen what they can do when they go off, so let's move."
Throwing a grenade at the door, Chris covered Jill from the explosion, as a path was cleared for them. Running through the hallways as the timer ticked down, Chris and Jill raced towards the rooftops, but as they rounded a corner, they found themselves face-to-face with the Ustanak. It bellowed deeply, burn marks and blood scorching its body, as it focused on Chris and lashed out at him with its steel claws. He barely ducked in time, as Jill fired with her assault rifle, before having to roll under the Ustanak's large fist. Pulling the pin on another grenade, Chris dived past the Ustanak, dropping the grenade at its feet, as Jill grabbed his hand and pulled him up, the pair taking off when the grenade exploded and the Ustanak roared. Reaching the roof, Chris and Jill dived into the back of the Osprey, as Wesker piloted the aircraft into the sky, taking off away from the other aircrafts, as the timer hit zero and the purge bomb ripped throughout the White House, obliterating the historic building and incinerating all of the infected and the Umbrella aircrafts, leaving nothing behind save for the large crater that marked where the White House used to be.
"Did we just blow up the White House?" Jake asked, "How often can you get away with that?"
"And now next stop: China," Alice said as she stared at the crater, praying the survivors, especially Becky, would be okay.
