At the moment, the limo was driving through the streets of Pentagram City as well as it could, considering there were a ton of abandoned/turned over cars. Inside, the main party sat, each of them having mixed emotions about this whole thing. Charlie sat nervous, rubbing her arms and feeling her eyes shake while they head into unknown danger. Vaggie clenched her spear as tightly as she could, having only the thought of protecting Charlie at the moment. Her eye's moved to Steve, who was looking down on the floor while having his dual Lugers in hand. He was rather expressionless, with his red/white hair slightly covering his glowing red eyes. Angel Dust sat with guns hand as well, looking out the window at the destroyed city that laid before them. Alastor looked rather okay with the whole thing, but that was normal. He simply had one leg over the other and wore a closed smile instead of his normal toothy smile. Vaggie and Charlie could tell that was to show that even Alastor was having mixed emotions about this whole thing...

"...I just realized that half of us aren't properly armed for this armed."

The sound of Steve's voice mad every head turned towards him, seeing how he still hung his head low.

"We might need to get you girls some guns when we can.", he said, talking to Charlie and Vaggie.

"...You don't have to worry about that.", Vaggie said. "We can manage with what we got."

But Steve shook his head and said, "It's not enough. In my line of 'work', what you have to do is make sure never to let them come close to touching you. Make every shot count by hitting them in their weak spot."

"What would they're weak spot be?", Angel Dust asked.

"The head, mostly.", Steve answered. "Just blow enough bullets in them to make sure their heads explode. It's how you make sure they stay down."

"Anything else that we need to know about, Steven?", Alastor then asked.

Steve sighed as he continue on with his advice, "Don't get yourself cornered by any of them. Don't waste any ammo. Put ALL of you weapons to work. And don't. Stop. Moving. And again...it's just Steve."

Alastor's smile brightened at Steve's irritation, but the seriousness in his voice could be felt by everyone, but it was then interrupted by the limo crashing. It felt like it hit something in the front, something hard...really hard, as it made the entire car flip and land upsidedown. The passengers inside landed onto the ceiling and struggled to recover from the impact.

"Ugh... Is everyone okay?", Charlie asked.

"I'll be alright.", Vaggie grunted.

"I'm fine.", Steve answered.

"Mmmm...", said Angel, who landed on his face.

Then Charlie looks around and realized they're missing a person.

"Where's Alastor?"

Then, the door opened from the outside and grabbed hold of Charlie. It was the Radio Demon himself who was pulling her out of the car while the others crawled out and Steve was surprised to see that Alastor was unscathed...

"How did he do that?!", He asked.

"What can I say?", Vaggie said. "The freak has power."

"I'll take that as a compliment.", Alastor said.

Then one Angel Dust's arm came out of car, with the spider demon saying, "A little help?"

"Why do you need our help?", Steve asked. "You're the one with four arms."

"Well, it wouldn't kill you to be considerate!", Angel growled.

Vaggie looked unamused, saying, "Just get out here, Angel."

Grunting, Angel pulled himself out of the limo and dusted himself while scowling at the others. Vaggie scowled back and Steve rolled his eyes, sensing the hostility between the two. But then, something else came to mind...

"Wait a minute, what about the-"

Before he could finish, the limo exploded...

"...driver?"

"Too late for him now, it seems.", Angel Dust says sarcastically.

"What could've even hit the limo?", Charlie then asked.

"If I were to take a guess...", Alastor began to say as he pointed to a giant hulking silhouette not too far away. "I'd say that fellow may be responsible for this."

Steve squinted his eyes, wanting to get a good look at the towering figure walking towards them. Meanwhile, Vaggie was glaring at the figure as she still had her spear in hand...

"Hey, asshole!", She screamed, "What the fuck is your problem, getting in our way!?"

"I don't think it's a good idea to tell at him like that, Vaggie.", Charlie said.

"So what? What is he gonna do?", She then said.

Steve's eyes then widened as he saw exactly WHAT the hulking figure was. It had a pure white eyes, greyish skin, visible white veins and a scowl. It wore and overcoat, gloves and boots and was stomping straight towards them.

"Guy's we gotta get outta here.", Steve then asked as he put up his guns and aimed at the being.

"Why? What's wrong, Steve?", Charlie asked.

"I know what that thing is.", He answered, sounding scared. "It's nothing good!"

"Why are you so worried?", Vaggie asked.

"Yeah, are you worried about that guy?", Angel added. "Come on. It's not like he's...coming...right...at us?"

That's exactly what it was doing. In fact, it was charging, leaving Steve but no choice but to push the girls and Angel out of the way as the giant slammed it's arm into the burning limo, throwing it at the gang. Steve ducked down as the flaming vehicle came flying at him. It smashed into a nearby building as Steve brought himself back up and pointed his guns at the monster...

"Here we go again!", Steve said, starting to fire.

The shots didn't seem to do anything to slow the giant down as then, Steve took a powerful punch to the gut, making him fall down. Charlie, Vaggie and Angel saw this shocked by things were starting to turn out.

"Steve!", Charlie yelled.

"So, this is what he meant.", Vaggie said, shocked.

"Hey!", Angel yelled, "Leave the kid alone, asshole!"

The spider started to fire his tommy gun at the big guy, who then turned its attention towards him. Angel backed away and pumped as much led into the giant as he could, but it didn't seem to be doing anything. Pretty soon, Angel got himself uppercutted and sent up high.

"Angel! No!", Charlie screamed.

It was enough to make the giant turn to the two girls and walk towards them...

"Okay...", Vaggie said. "I'm starting to see why he was so scared."

Speaking of whom, Steve held onto his stomach as he painfully got back up and pointed both guns at the giant.

"Let's try this again as he started to fire rapidly, causing the giant to shift his attention to Steve once more.

"Drop dead, you son of a bitch!"

Seeing another punch coming his way, Steve dodged as quickly as he could and continued to fire. But he knew, he couldn't keep circling around the guy forever. Thankfully, Angel finally came back down and landed on top of the big guy.

"You giant-ass, leather wearing, fuck-tart!", The spider demon screamed while blasting his guns through the head of the giant. "I'm blowing your head clean off!"

"Perfect timing.", Steve said as he saw the monster about to fall over. Moving away, Steve watched as Angel jumped off and let the big oaf fall to his knees and then onto his face...

"And stay down!", Said Angel as he walked away from the giant and towards Steve.

"Nice work, Angel.", Steve commented. "But the chances of that guy staying down are pretty slim."

Confused, Angel asked, "What do you mean?"

"That thing is called a Tyrant.", Steve explained. "I faced one worst than this one. They had a virus that allows them to recover from almost everything."

Vaggie and Charlie then joined them, with Vaggie asking, "Wait. You're saying that there are others WORSE than this guy?!"

"Yep.", Steve simply answered. "And like I said, they don't die easy."

"Oh, come on!", Angel shouted. "We just shot a thousands holes into this fucker. What are the chances that-"

He didn't finished back a giant hand held him by the neck and he was lifted up off the ground. The three others froze with Vaggie and Steve having their respectable weapons out. But then, something caught Charlie's attention...

"Wait a minute, where's Alastor?", She asked as she and Vaggie looked around.

"Who cares? The guy freaks me out!", Steve yelled. "Plus, we got bigger problems to deal with!"

"NOT ANYMORE!"

Hearing a voice that sounded like it came from a megaphone made the three, plus Angel and the Tyrant turn their heads to see what looked like a military vehicle coming their way. On top of it was a mounted on turret and who was manning it was a familiar looking cyclops demon...

"HANG ON, ANGEL! HELP HAS ARRIVED!"

"C-C-Cherri?", Angel struggled to say.

The explosion obsessed demon started to fire at the Tyrant. A ton of the bullets managed to hit the Tyrant's arm enough to making come clean off, dropping Angel, who was grabbed by the trio as the passenger of the trio came out with a rocket launcher. Firing almost instantly, the the missile was enough to blow up the entire upper body of the Tyrant, as its lower half fell down and started to gush blood.

"Well, that worked.", Steve said as the car came to stop right by them. Coming it out of it was Cherri and two other demons that the others didn't recognize, but was a humanoid demon in a yellow vest and the driver was a hellhound with a red bandana. Angel, who managed to recover from being strangled, rushed over to his friend and two hugged...

"Cherri! Perfect timing, girl! You saved my ass!"

"Like I always do!", Cherri said, happy to see Angel again, but then turning to see Charlie and Vaggie. Vaggie soon recognized and looked not so thrilled at seeing her.

"You again!", Vaggie growled. "Don't think that for a second that this makes up for-"

"Vaggie, please!", Charlie said, grabbing hold of Vaggie's hand. "She just saved our lives!"

"We were lucky to have not been caught in the blast!", Vaggie protested. "I mean, we were literally right next to that thing when they fired at us."

"Sheesh. It's like no one here has appreciation for help.", Brad said.

Angel and Cherri agreed, with Angel saying "Tell us about it."

Vaggie growled and was about to attack them but Steve got in between them all.

"Alright, that's enough!", He said. "We appreciate your help, Cherri. You came just in the nick of time."

Charlie then said, "Yeah. But, how did you know where we are?"

"We were given an anonymous tip by someone who talked over a phone.", Joseph said.

"Yeah. He sounded like he was talking out of a radio.", Brad added.

Charlie then began to ask, "You mean-?"

"That would be me!", Alastor said, coming out of nowhere while holding a phone on his hand, scaring everyone. "I figured that if we would needed a few extra arms, so I took the liberty of calling Angel's pyrotechnic friend on this little thing." He then throws the phone away.

"Oh, is that all that you were doing?", Vaggie said sarcastically. "That's fine. It's not like you're an overload who could've finished off that fucker easily!"

"But what would be the fun in that?", Alastor asked with a smile.

"Enough, Vaggie.", Steve said. "I hate to admit it, but Alastor's right. If we're going to survive, we need numbers and people we can count on."

Vaggie looked to the ground as she took in what Steve said.

"And, if Charlie's business is still standing when this is over...", Steve said, making Vaggie look at Brad and Joseph. "We might need...clients?"

"You really think these guys would make good clients for us?", She then asked.

"Do you doubt anything and anyone who shows up at your door?", Steve asked back and Vaggie glared at him.

"Whatever.", Vaggie said. "I can only agree that we'll need help."

"A lot more help than just these guys.", Steve added.

The demon in the yellow vest walked over to Steve and Vaggie, saying, "There's a lot more of us who'd be willing to help you guys if you're up for it. My name's Brad, by the way."

"And I'm Joseph.", The hellhound said.

It was then that that Steve got a good look at the badges Brad and Joseph wore and realized something. "Wait a minute. You guys were S.T.A.R.S."

"Well, it's nice to get some recognition around here.", Brad said.

"You now these guys, Steve?", asked Charlie.

"They were the, uh...the elite police unit of Raccoon City.", Steve explained. "They were the best."

"Raccoon City?", Angel laughed at the name. "We're you guys famous for-"

"Yes, we were famous for Raccoons.", Brad answered, irritated.

"Not anymore.", Steve then said. "I heard Raccoon got bombed."

"What?!", Joseph said.

"Doesn't surprise me.", Brad said. "After what I saw there, it'd make sense for them to do that. Bomb the city...sanitize the area...leave nothing behind."

Brad sighed as he took out his Samurai Edge pistol, and remembered a good friend of his.

"...Hope you're still alive, Jill."

The others were confused, but the moment was cut short by the sound of moaning and groaning coming from every angle. Zombies demons were coming the alley ways, the manholes, out of cars or buildings, leaving the gang surrounded.

"...So.", Cherri then said. "Does this mean we're all working together?"

"Looks that way.", Steve said.

"Get ready, everyone!", Brad yelled out. "And don't get eaten!"

"Good tip.", Angel said.

"Time for some more fun, it would seem!", Alastor said as shots started to get fired...

Meanwhile, in an unfamiliar city in Hell, there was someone monitoring everything that was going on in the other cities. That was until he got a call.

"Speak.", The person said in a really bad british accent.

"Dr. Birkin has been delivered and now under command."

"Good.", Said the person. "He will prove useful until we have all that we need from him." And then the person hung up and continue to watch the monitors...

"In the meantime...I think we should...dethrone a few so called 'Overlords'.", He says without any emotion on his face.
