They had walked for about an hour, leaving the beast's body behind. "Okay, so. Best kiss?" Carlos said.
"Hmm." Alice thought about it. "Patrick Edwards." Alice smiled and Carlos did too. "And yours?"
"Tracy Monroe." He said.
"Worse kiss?" Alice asked.
"Sarah McCoy. Nice girl, horrible kisser."
"Gary Ackerman. He played the trombone." Alice said then was quiet for a while. "No one was nice to him. They were always picking on him. Now I wish I could have made him feel like he had a friend." Alice said.
"Is that why you kissed him?"
"Nah, I went to give him a peck on the cheek and he turned his head at the last minute." Alice giggled in her 'I'm giggling but I can still kick you're a**' way.
"Wow."
"Yeah. So, what did you do before you came to Umbrella?" Alice asked as she kicked aside a rusted soda can.
"Well, I was seventeen when I graduated high school and then I went to the college. I dropped out like three years later." Carlos said. "I got involved with some people and in a few months they wanted me dead. That's why I started working for Umbrella. They told me they could make me disappear."
"But they made you work for them, right?"
"It was either that or my life." Carlos said and he looked at her then.
"Umbrella seems to screw everything up."
"Yeah." They continued walking and soon enough the sky started to darken and lead into the night.
"Hey," Carlos said after a while. "Why aren't the infected around?"
"Beats me." Alice said before stopping suddenly. Carlos tensed and reached for his gun. "What is it?"
"A weapon shop." Alice said before cracking a smile.
"That's not funny." He said, relaxing a little bit. But it was true. There was a weapon shop. Right there called Nicky's Guns 'N' Fun. "Lets check it out." Alice said as she walked towards it. She drew her gun before opening the door and walking in. Carlos followed behind her. Alice looked around. Display cases lined the large store with guns of every size displayed in them. Handguns, magnums, revolvers, shotguns. Everything. In other cases, there were swords and knives. "Like Wonderland." Alice smiled. Carlos shook his head as he and Alice put away their guns.
"Guns 'R' Us?" Carlos said as he checked out a TMP on a rack behind the counter.
"Oh yeah." Alice saw a couple of sawed of shotguns.
"Here." Carlos said as he handed her a gray duffel bag.
"Where'd you get this?" Alice asked.
"It was behind the counter." Carlos answered. He put a rifle into the bag and some cases of ammo. Alice smashed in the case with her elbow and took two sawed-off shotguns. "Thanks Nicky." She muttered to herself as she put them in the duffel. "Take all the ammo." Carlos said. Alice rolled her eyes.
They had cleaned out the Nicky's Guns 'N' Fun and were out on the street trying to hot-wire a car. "You do know how to do this, right?" Alice asked.
"Have faith in your Spanish friend." Carlos said as he fumbled with the wires under the dashboard. After a few minutes, the engine roared and then quickly softened to a purr. Carlos got out of the car. "And you said I didn't know how to hotwire a car." He said smugly.
"Whatever." Alice rolled her eyes and opened the car door on the passengers side and sat in the car.
They drove for awhile and the sun was setting fast. Alice rested her head on the window. The car hit a bump and Alice hit her head. "Sorry 'bout that." Carlos said. "Road is bumpy." Alice yawned and put her sunglasses on. Carlos looked at her. "Alice?"
"Yes?" She said.
"Why are you wearing sunglasses?"
"To keep the light out of my eyes."
"But it's dark." Carlos said.
"Light-sensitive eyes."
"It's dark!" Carlos emphasized the word dark.
"Let me be!" Alice whined. Carlos blinked and stared at the road. Alice could be weird sometimes.
The blonde squinted at an observation sheet behind his glasses. He sat back in his chair and sighed. "Sir?" a voice said. He looked up and saw the holographic representation of the little girl. The White Queen. "Report." Wesker ordered.
"Experiment X is stable. Regeneration is almost complete."
"Good. And Project Alice?"
"There is no signal on her whereabouts. The Umbrella satellite that is orbiting the Earths atmosphere has experienced some technical difficulty." The hologram said.
"Technical difficulties?" Wesker asked.
"It was made to orbit the Earth for only two years. It has been three already. It has expired." Wesker pressed his fingers against his temples. "May I may a suggestion?"
"What?"
"Perhaps a rest. You've been awake for a long time now and at this rate can be unhealthy." Wesker looked at the hologram over his sunglasses. "An hour at the least."
"That'll be all." Wesker said as he stood up from his chair and walked out of the room.
Carlos and Alice had reached the bridge which was littered with abandoned cars. Carlos opened the back door and picked up his bag from the backseat. He didn't bother closing it again when he and Alice started walking across the bridge. "We need to find shelter." Carlos said after a while of silence. Alice didn't say anything, just kept walking. After a minute of silence, there was low rumbling sound. Carlos looked at Alice. "What?" She said uncomfortably.
"Was that your stomach?" Carlos asked teasingly.
"So, I'm hungry." Alice shrugged. Carlos smirked. Her stomach rumbled again, a little louder than the last.
"Not a word, Carlos." Alice said. Carlos grinned from ear to ear. There was another low rumble, "that wasn't me."
Carlos and Alice exchanged glances and reached for their guns. Coming towards them, was an armored car.
Carlos opened fire first, hitting the dark windshield. Alice fired second and she hit the front tire. It exploded and sent the car swerving. It crashed into the side wall of the bridge. Smoke rose from the engine, and the door on the drivers side opened slowly. The first thing that Alice saw was the barrel of a gun. She squeezed the trigger a second time and this time she hit the corner of the windshield. The door on the passenger side burst open and a man popped out, aiming his gun at Carlos and Alice.
