Dear Diary…

My plans hadn't worked out exactly as I had anticipated…

What is now being called the 'Mansion Incident' occurred just a few short months ago, an incident that should have involved the release of the beautiful and amazing Tyrant, the death of all of the STARS members (including Bravo team) and some valuable data gathered for Umbrella (and myself) to use as we please in our plans to take over the world using the T-virus.

Only that plan hadn't worked out in which Umbrella and I had set out to do, and has become a failure in many ways… it rather pisses me off.

It all started when the Bravo team was sent out to investigate reports of families being eaten alive in the Arklay region just outside Racoon City. Of course, the reports were close to the Umbrella research facility that housed important information, as well as important biological weapons made thanks to the brilliant T-virus. An unfortunate incident involving a Mr. Marcus seeking revenge on Umbrella caused an unexpected outbreak of the T-virus at the Umbrella research facility in the Arklay Mountains. This caused a slight break in Umbrella's plans, but all was not lost. Important statistical data could be gathered with the use of STARS and their special training.

So, with Bravo team sent in to investigate the murders and disappearances, I sat back with my Alpha team, waiting. The morning after Bravo was sent in reports came back of their disappearance, with Racoon City's news reporting it 'mysterious' while Umbrella reported to me of the true situation. They had been destroyed by the humans and animals that had been infected with the T-virus. Useful battle statistics had been gathered thanks to Bravo Team… but there was more needed.

After Racoon city had learnt of the missing Bravo Team, an outcry came back to the Racoon City Police Department to send out Alpha team and myself to search for them.

And so it was time to put my men in the line of fire… for science of course. We prepared ourselves like we always had, but nerves had set in for a few of them. We had done numerous missions before, but none that had this level of severity. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous myself… although for different reasons.

Upon our arrival, it was late at night and a thick fog had set in. Umbrella always had a thing for the dramatics as had I, and added to the effect by telling a ghost story to 'lighten' the mood. By the end of the story Barry looked ready to punch something and Brad almost swerved the helicopter down and crashed a few times. But we arrived in a timely fashion and had Brad land nearby where the Bravo Team helicopter had been reported crashing.

Joseph went off to investigate the helicopter and record what he found, while the rest of Alpha Team and I went to secure the area. I could feel that death was in the air (thanks to my amazing senses) and prepared myself for whatever would present itself. Although I was to be spared the battles and eventual death, I still found myself wanting to participate in the initial experimentations, testing the creatures I had helped create with my own intelligence and experience. It was a new opportunity for me to get into the thick of things and see what Umbrella and I could really do.

Joseph eventually reported back to us the death of Bravo Teams pilot, Kevin Dooley, and stated it appeared he had been mauled to death, his face disfigured in a manner that left Joseph in a state of shock. I could tell this report made Brad nervous and smiled to myself, knowing that Brad was ready to flee anytime soon. I had planned it so that Brad would leave with the helicopter, giving Alpha team no choice but to make their way to the mansion. Absolutely pitiful people do have their uses…

Deciding to take control, I ordered Jill and Joseph to investigate one area while Barry, Chris, and I moved to a farther into the woods in search of further evidence of Bravo Team. Brad would stay alone… with the helicopter… and the keys.

Barry, Chris, and I moved forward and scanned the area, all of us on high alert. I was slightly surprised to hear gunfire go off in the distance in such a short amount of time. It looked like something was prowling through the woods and had found someone…

Of course, Chris shot off into the woods, headstrong as always. I was tempted to shoot him as he ran, but thought better of it. His death could be more useful later on in the evening. Besides, I still was the Captain of his unit…

Barry and I followed, although with our guns out and at high alert. We only got a little distance in before I heard it.

Frantic running and the sound of growls.

Ahead of us, Jill and Chris were at a full run while they were being chased by the B.O.W Cerberus. The beautiful creatures created by injecting Doberman Pinchers with the T-virus. They were magnificent, their powerful legs carrying them forward while their mouths frothed at the corners. And their eyes… a catlike gold with a red hint. Absolutely amazing…

Of course Chris than decided to turn around and almost get killed by one, forcing me to shoot the creature down. It was unfortunate, but had to be done. I now knew that the right gun could take down the creature with a single well aimed shot.

Jill and Chris continued on their sprint forward while Barry and I shot at Cerberus a few times before following in quick pursuit. Overhead the sound of the helicopter could be heard and I couldn't help but smile. Soon the sight of the mansion came into view, and everyone headed towards it. We managed to make it inside… except Chris was missing. I had presumed that Joseph had been killed by Cerberus, while Chris was left outside to play a little game of catch with the canines. Jill had it in her mind to go back outside and find Chris, before I explained she and Barry should investigate the mansion. No need to lose all of my members to Cerberus, there were plenty more creatures to test out…

In any case, I left Barry and Jill to search the mansion and run into beautiful creations that would kill them, while I went into the underground labs to further my own plans, ones that didn't involve Umbrella.

I had come to the conclusion that Umbrella was too small for my ambitions, and a change in plans had to be made. Firstly, I would release Tyrant from his captivity and release him into the world for all to enjoy. Alpha team (or the remaining survivors) would be the first to glimpse upon my creation before it killed them, and then he would be free to roam and cause havoc for the rest who got in his way. But in order to do this, I had to:

1) Make Barry into the Judas of the group

2) Make myself appear dead… all good super masterminds have to appear dead at least once in their careers

In order to die and make it appear real, I actually had to die… but come back in a grander fashion. I had convinced my old friend and equal, William Birkin, to give me a primitive version of the T-virus. One that would bring me back from the dead…

I used Barry and his family (threatening his family if he didn't follow my orders) to bring Jill down by luring her into certain traps that could kill her, and gather valuable battle data for myself to use in the future. As Barry did my bidding, I decided to tour the mansion and view the creatures out of curiosity. On my travels I ran into Chris who had somehow managed to survive… without his gun.

Yes, the Marksman of the group lost his gun… lost it… his gun. I still couldn't believe that such a man had caused me to lose my calm and collected exterior because of his large penis. I hated him for it, and the fact that he had lost his gun in such a situation only furthered my dislike for the man.

He had been using his knife the entire time, and also informed me he had run into Rebecca Chambers from Bravo Team. Surprised she was still alive, I had my suspicions that there were further survivors of Bravo Team and instructed Chris to investigate further with his trusted pocket knife while I went my own way.

My suspicions had been correct when making my way through the mansion I encountered voices. Jill's voice was recognizable right away, but another voice caught my attention. It was none other than Enrico Marini, the leader of Bravo Team. The man was always suspicious of others taking his spot of being second in command to the entire STARS unit (with me in complete command). Barry and Chris topped his list of people who might push him from his esteemed spot. His suspicions in regards to that were incorrect, but what he was stating in the mansion was right on the spot… something had to be done.

He was explaining to Jill that he felt there was a traitor among the Alpha Team and that Barry, Chris, or I were working for Umbrella. His train of thought was far too close for comfort. I wasn't ready for my 'traitorous' behaviour to become public knowledge as of yet, and was forced to shoot Enrico before he could say anymore. Of course I had to shoot over Jill's shoulder so she couldn't see me, which wasn't too difficult.

Jill, after further observation, was truly a clueless woman. Enrico was clearly murdered in front of her, with a gunshot coming strait behind her, yet she never noticed. I swear, I could have snapped Joseph's neck in front of her at the STARS head office, and she would be wondering why Joseph decided to take a nap…

I would be angrier with her stupidity if it had not aided me in so many ways.

In any case, Jill continued on her way to what I had anticipated as inevitable death, as my plans further become wrapped up into a most diabolical and masterfully planned endeavour.

As the time came for me to finally come through with everything I had worked so hard for, I stepped aside for a moment while in the lab, and admired Tyrant… the last time I would fully appreciate the specimen that Umbrella and I had created to finish STARS and create the face of new Bio-weapons. My admiration was short lived however, when I heard voices coming down the main hallway towards me. It was time for the grand finale.

I had previously injected myself with the T-virus that I had obtained beforehand, and I must admit I was worried. There was always the possibility that I could have become a mindless zombie, just like the other scientists and employees of Umbrella had. But I was willing to take that risk in order to obtain true glory in the end.

So entered Chris Redfield and Rebecca Chambers, a little worse for wear but alive none the less. Chris appeared glad to see me but Rebecca kept her distance. She was always a little too smart for her own good.

I decided to tell Chris and Rebecca my entire plan, and finished it off with a final bullet to Rebecca. I would let the Tyrant finish Chris off, or so I thought…

I continued to explain the finer details of the Tyrant to Chris, knowing fully well that the T-virus was working its way through my veins, as well as preparing for what would appear to be my end. Chris managed to get in a last 'senile' comment about me before Tyrants massive claw crushed its way through the glass and into my chest, no doubt destroying my ribcage, puncturing my lungs and tearing open my heart. The pain was excruciating, causing me to cry out slightly in an attempt to quell the hesitation I was feeling before I blacked out completely, succumbing to the sweet embrace of 'death'. In that short moment I was able to feel the power of what I had created and couldn't wait to further my plans and take over the world with such power. But first, the version of the T-virus I had injected into myself had to work as planned.

After I blacked out and embraced death, I was gone for what seemed like years, but when I came to I realized that the T-virus had done its job- I was alive. Not only that, but I felt more alive and prepared than I had beforehand. Super speed, agility and the ability to cheat death… it was brilliant.

I felt like a God.

As stated before, I had decided a short while ago that I no longer shared the same visions with Umbrella. They had put their attention on matters I wished not to deal with and had begun to prepare for my push away from the company; but not before taking advantage of their hospitality to me one last time. As I pushed myself from the floor I took a look at my surroundings, noticing a few smashed beakers, some bullet holes, and the lack of a few dead bodies.

Rebecca's body was no longer on the floor, and Chris appeared to be missing as well… I was slight concerned at that moment.

But another matter caught my immediate attention.

I was blocked from the Umbrella interface. I could no longer access their information on account of my account being locked and then destroyed. As of this moment, I still have only a very basic idea of where the information is and why I was locked out of the system. Further research is still needed, but I feel confident in my ability to scout out the pest who blocked me, which created a rather large inconvenience to me. I hate inconveniences…

With me being unable to access the system, it was time to destroy the evidence of anything occurring at the mansion. I'm sure Umbrella would have come up with something to explain the loss of both of the STARS units and the explosion in the mountains. If nothing else, they're the masters of making up bullshit that the general public loves to hear.

In any case, I made my way out of the mansion with a few pesky experiments coming after me, including Lisa. I finished them off quickly with my new abilities and quickly ran from the mansion, feeling exhilarated.

Of course, after only a few short hours I had discovered what exactly happened after I had 'died'.

All but one member of Alpha Team survived.

Rebecca Chambers from Bravo Team was wearing a Bullet Proof Vest- therefore was not penetrated and killed from the gun I fired.

Brad returned with the helicopter.

Brad also brought a rocket launcher and dropped it down for Barry, Chris, and Jill to use… to kill and completely destroy the B.O.W Tyrant.

THEY KILLED THE TYRANT.

The amazing and powerful creature Umbrella and I had painstakingly created was destroyed in a few short moments by a group of… of American's! One who values his family over power, another who is oblivious to anything that occurs and has as much personality as a rice cracker, and another who's penis, in all probability, should limit him from even walking!

How they managed to survive its attacks and get up to the helicopter pad still makes me wonder as well. The strong claw arm, combined with its size and powerful heart that… lay outside its body… in perfect range for a critical hit…

BLOODY HELL

I'm going to account their success to defeating the Tyrant on my superior training of them, and the fact that much of their combat experience came to them at the hands of my amazing experience and ability to train even the stupidest of monkeys. So, in actuality, they owe their lives to me… which I will DESTROY once I find them again.

In the meantime, I am working with a new company called 'The Agency'. Umbrella as well as the now ex-STARS members all believe me to be dead, which suits me perfectly. No need to inform them of my intentions just yet, and nothing can keep my name clean as much as death. Now, I may have lost my humanity that night in July when I injected myself with the T-virus, but I gained a whole new world.

Who needs humanity when you're higher than humanity itself?
