The axe scraped across the concrete floor of the warehouse. Lugging its vicous axe, the executioner made his way to the main production room...
Ada scowled at Penelope.
"Maybe that's because I stopped being Wesker's lap dog," Ada roared back. The two were only inches away, glaring at each other. Leon struggled in the chair, trying to free himself from the ropes that tied his hands to the old chair.
"Lap dog? It's more of a favour, at least I know a good boss when I see one," Penelope muttered as Ada grasped her crossbow.
"Good luck with that, it's all your work, Wesker does nothing," Leon scooped a knife from his back pocket and began cutting away at the rope as the two women argued amongst themselves.
A loud slam of a door swarmed the air. Ada and Penelope turned round to their demise, the axeman stood there, defining and intimidating. Penelope walked back slowly, grabbing her handgun from the back of her belt. Ada aimed her crossbow up, Leon dropped the rope and started to get up from the chair with his hands raised up. He moved his way beside Ada.
"Give me a gun," he said quietly. Penelope frowned but stood still. Ada got out an old pistol and handed it over. Leon smirked. "Here we go again, MOVE!" he yelled as he shot at the axeman's covered head. Long nails were stuck right through its sack on its head, it's skin was grey and illustrated with various cuts. He swung his axe smashing away at the wall as he came in. Ada jumped back and shot an arrow into the axeman's hand. It had little effect. Rumble hit the dead chinese woman. Penelope shot repeatedly at the axeman before running down the stairs. Leon swerved his way around the next fling of the axe as it cut through the controls. The conveyor belt outside went at astonishing speed. Cycling round, a few infected dogs jolted up and made their way to the bottom of the stairs. Penelope turned round to loud barking and she went pale. Ada came behind her smacking her in the back with her crossbow. "Move Penelope! She said as she struck a dog with an arrow, it yelped and fell to the floor. This set off the other dogs that jumped to attack Penelope, she looked up and shot it, making it fall down into a heap. Leon descended down the stairs, still being stalked by the axeman. Ada glanced over he shoulder and quickly fished out an arrow for her crossbow.
"We need to move, quickly!" she yelled as she shot it at the axeman. A loud beeping noise echoed around as the arrow flashed red. Penelope's eyes widened. "No! Your going to blow us up! I set up more explosives! If you set that of, so will the others!" Ada turned round and glared at Penelope. The three ran to the nearest window and smacked through the glass, sending them to an excruciating fall to the ground outside.
The building exploded dramatically sending shards of glass scattering everywhere, some injected foreheads of some of the undead. Rubble tumbled down and scaffolding fell down to the surrounding environment. The day came to an abrupt end.
2006...
Chris walked into Penelope's office in his BSAA uniform. The office was bright with clear white paint on the walls, lamps added extra light to the place and the windows showed a bright and cheerful day. Chris shut the door behind him and looked at Penelope who was situated behind her desk in a mass of papers. She glanced up quickly.
"Hey, Chris," she said as she wrote something down. Chris took a seat on the couch in the middle of the room.
"Hi Penelope, we have a problem at California, there's been a new outbreak," Chris said as Penelope gave out a long and deep sigh. She threw down the papers and stood up to look out the window.
"Who caused it?" she asked as she gazed at the sunlight. Chris cleared his throat before speaking.
"Jill, Jill Valentine,"
Current...
Mist loomed over the three as they woke up. A cut had formed on Penelope's head as she struggled regain conciousness. Ada's right arm was badly bruised and Leon had a cut on his lip. They weren't in bad shape, considering. Several hours had passed and the day looked to be breaking into a dead dawn. Leon grabbed onto a nearby rock and pulled himself up. Ada rolled around trying to get closer to him so he could assist her. Penelope just lay their, in pure shock. Leon gave Ada a helping hand and she rose to her feet. The attention turned to the badly wounded Penelope.
"Penelope," Ada coughed. No answer.
"Maybe she's in shock," Leon suggested as the wounded pair hobbled over. Ada knelt down and put her hand on Penelope, the reaction was just a blank stare. Leon also knelt beside Ada as the two checked on her. Penelope's eye's suddenly changed from an aqua blue to a golden yellow. Her skin started to go darker. Ada grabbed Ada's hand as Penelope charged for them. Little did they notice the most important injury on Penelope, the bite mark on her leg.
