Ada encountered another revolver as she began her mission. It wasn't like the one she was handling earlier but a faster one since all she had to do was twist it with both of her hands and push.
She started walking down what seemed like an aisle and as she got to the end of it she heard a voice...
Upon hearing the voice, Ada backed to the wall and slowed her movements... She could see the shadow of a soldier nearby, holding his gun and standing watch... By the way he was standing, unaware of her presence, she figured him an easy target... but...
I suppose I could go introduce myself... she said, taking a step forward...
She was about to make her appearance but...
But I don't want to fall behind schedule.
With that she vigorously stepped behind the soldier and using her single, free hand, forced the soldier's head into the wall.
When he collapsed to the floor, Ada noticed something strange about the soldier...
He started disintegrating into nothingness and the next second there was no body there...
This must be the new breed I've been hearing about... thought Ada...
Similar to the T-Virus, a new one had surfaced known as the C-Virus.
Ada didn't have much knowledge on the subject but that this virus would make you undead along with more dangerous qualities...
Apparently the C-Virus would make you a zombie, but you would have the intelligence of a human. It's like you still had your mind but the appearance of a zombie. This new breed could regenerate any damaged limbs that had been hurt into a more grotesque, looking feature.
Say you shot off their arms, they would grow two more unstable, massive arms. This goes the same for their legs too. Sometimes particular "J'avo", as they are called, can mutate a parasite in their body into a horrifying organism if they are hurt enough.
This didn't bother Ada as the only thought that came to mind was
Makes killing them a whole lot harder, thought the fearless spy.
She advanced through the high-tech submarine knocking out more J'avo, crawling through air-ducts, and setting off false alarms when she came across a puzzle...
Ada dropped down to the floor from the air vent she was just in. She looked around to see a lavish room with vintage wallpaper and expensive looking furniture along with an enormous painting, some vases, and a goat's headpiece.
You never did have taste, did you Simmons... Ada said, staring at the painting.
It looked like there was a woman twirling in a circle in the center of a lake with nature all around her and the sun looking an omniscient blue.
She proceeded to the door and tried opening it.
It didn't budge an inch...
It's locked...
Ada was a little frustrated when she saw that next to the door was a mechanism that had three different panels... She could tell, right from the get go, that this was a picture matching password...
This is going to require a little effort, I assume...
She looked at her surroundings, studying the room... There had to be something in the room that could help her find the password...
Ada looked at the panel again. There were three slots with different parts of pictures. One looked like a tail, another looked like a fin, and the last looked like a head. Ada concluded that the picture must be of a fish of some kind.
Then she took another look at the room again. She peered at everything in the room but nothing in there was close to a fish...
*sigh*
Ada was almost going to give up but then she noticed something...
In the painting...
On the bottom left side of the painting was a little fish. It appeared to be jumping out of the lake and back in again. Ada just found her answer...
Ada went to the panel to try to input the pictures of the fish to the right place but had another problem...
She tried to change the slots on the panel but they wouldn't move...
Ada searched the room again and found a mechanism that controls the slots. There were three different controls that moved the slots...
Not too long after did Ada find out how to input the password and when she went to open the door she heard a *ding!* which she gladly accepted.
Well that was a pain in the ass...
Relieved that she was done with the puzzle, Ada stepped through the door and the first step she took triggered an alarm.
The sly woman in red jumped and looked down at her foot as she stepped on a sensor plate. She looked straight up and saw what appeared to be a security camera, but with a turret attached to it's side.
Ada covered her face, fearing that the next second bullets would be flying straight at her but...
When she realized she hadn't been mashed with bullets she put down her arms and opened her eyes.
There was a J'avo right in front of her and for a second it had it's gun pointed at Ada, ready to shoot, but it stood still and then fell to the floor. Disintegrating like all the others...
I'm guessing teamwork isn't a strong point around here... Ada said, passing by the lone gun left by the J'avo.
Ada figured that she could somehow use those sensors to her advantage...
Aha!
Ada came across another soldier-J'avo that was standing right under the camera. The panel was right next to Ada and all she had to do was step on it and...
*Tttttttttt!*
As expected, the camera aimed for the soldier and not Ada...
Although this was good for Ada, as she could remain anonymous to the ship's crew but... She finds it odd that the camera aims past her... For all she knows, the camera could be targeting something particular... but as she said it herself "teamwork isn't a strong point around here".
Ada continued through several more paths, activating the same traps set by themselves that killed them (which Ada found slightly ironic).
Offing your own crew's got to be bad for morale. she figured.
Soon as she came to an end, she encountered a door.
Next to it was a pad along with a voice box. Ada assumed this as Level 4 since Simmons said earlier, that it required her handprint for access. She placed her hand on the scanner and it verified her.
Authorization recognized. Access granted. responded an automatic voice.
The door slid open and Ada entered the room.
Wonder what else he's got on file besides my prints... Ada said, beginning her search...
It was a small room and not much was in it except for a table and a shelf with a few books along with...
A projector...
There was a screen in it's opposite direction. Whatever's on this projector must be what Simmons wanted to show Ada... Pretty important too, if he went to such great lengths to convince Ada to see it...
Ada turned the projector on and it flashed a light onto the screen. It first showed various images of a mansion, panning in and out of view the interior and the exterior.
My dearest Ada Wong...
The sound of Simmons voice could be heard which Ada tried tuning out but she had to listen anyway...
Next it showed a young man, shooting a gun. He appeared to be in his late 20's and had a bald head with a very handsome face.
Jake Muller has been located in the republic of Edonia...
Then came a profile of the young man named Jake Muller...
Your mission is to find out if his body has antibodies to the C-Virus.
A picture of multiple traces of what appeared to be the C-Virus were scattered on to the screen.
We cannot allow a vaccine to be produced.
A global map of the world showed on the screen. In big red letters were "VIRUS ALERT" flashing.
A picture of a young woman showed up this time. She looked to be in her early 20's. Blonde hair with a petite little face. She could be an innocent little girl with her looks...
Agent Birkin will be sent in to acquire the target...
Your job is to ensure they escape the country alive... Good luck.
Ada had many questions about this recording she just watched...
Who's Jake Muller? Ada had never heard of this man before in her life. Never came across a Muller once and if she did what would he have to do with this whole virus epidemic...
Antibodies... Apparently this Muller person may have antibodies for the C-Virus...
But how...? He looked like an ordinary man to Ada, but she had to admit... Some of his features look strikingly familiar...
Also 'Agent Birkin'...
The only Birkin she knew still alive today was Sherry Birkin from Raccoon City. Also the daughter of the late scientist, William Birkin, Ada suggested that Sherry must have wanted to become part of the fight if she became an agent...
What really puzzled Ada was...
That was dated six months ago... That can't be right...
Six months ago, Ada was off doing a job for some high-end official. It wasn't possible that she could have been listening to this...
I don't remember those orders... Maybe they were passed on to someone else...
But who indeed, Ada Wong...
Just as Ada finished contemplating her thoughts, an alarm sounded.
Before she even knew it, she was surrounded by a whole group of armed J'avo, pointing their guns at her already...
Ada simply scoffed at them.
Suppose I should introduce myself... she said smiling a little, getting a tight grip on her machine gun as she did so...
