I'M BACK! Did anyone miss me? (Crickets chirping) Hello? I know you're out there folks, I can hear you bleeding (drums beat).

Zombies: ahhhhhhhhhh!

Okay! Who let the zombies in? Well never mind. Anyway, here's the next chapter you all been waiting for! Now, if your excuse me, I have to take of this Zombie problem. Enjoy (gunshot fired).

Chapter 3: the zombie

My head hurt like hell as I was lying on the floor. I couldn't move a muscle since I was still out from whoever hit me in the head. I just can't believe my luck. First, I was chased by a bunch of monstrous dogs and now I am stuck in this mansion with three people and who knows whatever the hell is in this place. Just then, I felt an arm shaking on my body.

"Austin?" I recognize that voice. it was Chris! "Can you hear me?"

I stirred and I opened my eyes to see Chris's face looking down at me.

"Yeah I can hear you." I said as Chris helped me up from the floor.

"It's good to see that you're alright." Said Chris.

I nodded and looked around to see that Wesker and Jill where nowhere in sight.

"Where did Wesker and Jill go?" I asked.

"I don't know. I just got back here to tell them about the gunshot when they were gone." Replied Chris.

I crossed my arms and said "I hope their okay."

"So do I." say Chris "but right now, we better try and find any survivors from Bravo team."

Chris was right. It wasn't going to do us any good just sitting around waiting for help, which that's not going to happen anytime soon.

"alright." I said. Turning around to face Chris. "Where should we start?"

"We should try going back to the room I just went to. There were other rooms that we can check out."

I nodded and we both headed for the double doors that Chris went through earlier. Then, Chris held me up.

"Take this." He said, holding out to me a 9mm handgun. "I found this on the floor. Don't worry, I have my own gun. You may need this."

I looked at the handgun in Chris's hand. I have use fake guns in the past, pretending to have fun and always practicing with them, as if they were real. But this was different; using a real gun in a situation that I had no idea about was just a bit scary. But I knew this was real and serious and I needed to handle this quickly if I'm going to have any chance of surviving this nightmare. I took the handgun from Chris and held it up, ready for anything.

We opened the doors and went inside what appeared to a dining room. There was a very long table that stretches to the other side of the room. There were candles laid on the table, burning in the room. Chris and I walked along the right of the table. I spotted an old grandfather clock, its big thing swinging back and forth, making tick-tock noises. Suddenly, I noticed there was something written on it. I took a closer look and it read.

"When the two have run each other through, the path to your destiny will open."

I wonder what this means. I thought. But I had no time to think about it as Chris was on the other side. I made my over to him. He was leaning down over a fireplace. It burns brightly in the darkness. Above it where two swords and an emblem shield. I looked down to see what Chris was looking at. There were some bloodstains on the floor. It made me shivered just looking at it.

"I sure hope that blood isn't from anyone you know, Chris." I said.

"Yeah." He said, getting up from the floor. "C'mon. Let's keep moving."

I nodded and we headed for the door that was to the right of the fireplace. We came to a hallway where there were several doors to the right. I went to the closet one and turned the knob. It wouldn't open.

"Damn it. It must be locked from the other side." I said. "Let's try the next one."

Chris headed for the next one. But it was locked too. Chris then noticed something was carved into the lock. Chris told me to come and see this. It was an emblem of armor.

"Maybe it's some kind of key that we need to unlock this door." I said, thinking this over.

"Yeah, maybe. Let's try another door."

Me and Chris headed further down the hallway and we came across a some kind of metal door.

"it's an elevator." Said Chris. "It doesn't look like we will be able to access it on this level."

I shook my head. This is going to be one hell of a night. I thought and we headed further when we came across a set of stone steps. At the bottom was another door. me and Chris walked down the step to open the door. But, it was locked too. There was a craving on the lock, just like the one we saw earlier. But this one had an emblem of a sword.

"Well, this is a dead end." I said, sighing. "We better head back the way we came."

Chris nodded and we headed back. We came to a small square room with two chairs and a lamp. Me and Chris looked down to see something over a dead person's body. It looked like a human, but when it turned around, its face had no eyes and its body had bits of flesh sticking out all over it and it was EATING the body!

What the FUCK is that thing? I stepped back as it was getting up and started to walk slowly towards me. I was frozen in fear, I didn't even react. Just then, Chris fired his gun at the zombie and it turned its attention to him. Chris fired two more shots at it before it got a hold of him. Chris was struggling against the zombie's grip.

"Chris!" I said and I took out the handgun Chris gave me earlier and took aim. I had to shoot somewhere without hitting him. I then focused on its head and with one lucky shot, took out its head. Its body fell to the floor as Chris released his grip from the body.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, I'm okay." He said. "By the way, thanks."

"No problem." I said and Chris went to examine the dead body that the zombie was eating. "What the hell is this thing?"

"I don't know." Said Chris "but whatever it is, it's not friendly."

I turned around to see the body Chris was looking at "do you know this guy?"

"Kenneth." Replied Chris. "a member of Bravo team. I hope the other members aren't like this."

"Yeah. We better keep going and hope we find someone left alive." I said.

"Yeah." Chris said as he got up and we both headed for the door on the left.

Well, that's it for now. The rest of the chapters are going to be a lot of work. I hope I can get through this without being zombie food. Anyway, leave a review and I will see you next time.

Zombies: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

What the….. MORE OF THESE THINGS? I was right. This IS going to be one hell of a night. Well, here I go. (Gunshots firing)
